May Suffer From Hunger.


1t is possible that the squirrels in the
Washington parks are really suffering
from starvation, for the reason that nuts
and other things on which they live are
not generally to be found among the
shade trees in Washington. During the
summer months. especially while they are
in full foliage, the trees bear little in the
way of nuts on which the squirrels can
live, and it is probable that generations
of squirrels that have been largely hand
fed have not laid by supply of food
that will carry them over the scant sea-
son. as is done by their absolutely wild
colleagues. The effect of environment on
this storehouse habit among animals and
insects is shown particularly we'll in the
fact that honey bees cannot be kept In
Cuba. A swarm has been there for
few seasons, and finding there are flowers
all the year round they resolutely refuse
to store up honey for the coming winter.
1t is not true, however, that the squir
rels in the Washington parks are left
absolutely without care during the sum-
mer months. The department of public
buildings and grounds makes a regular
appropriation to buy nuts and other food
for the squirrels. and it is part of the
duty of the park policemen to see that
the squirrels are fed at all seasons.

HUNGER OR DISEASE z
Inquiry into Fatality Causes
Among Park Squirrels.
IN INTEREST OF SCIENCE
Emaciated Condition of Little Ami
mails When Found Dead.
SEARCH FOR DISEASE GERMS
Belief of Many That Deaths Were
Due to the Lack of
Food.

i An unusual percentage of deaths has
been noted among the squirrels in the
Washington parks. notably in Lafayette
Square and in the White House grounds.
I Whether or not this turns out to be an
important scientific discovery has not yet
/ been determined. 1t was suspected by a
good many that the deaths were due to
starvation. as the squirrels were enact
ated and in bad condition. This, however.
! lends color to the suspicion that they died
| of disease. If this is the case it means
| that for the first time the scientists of the
/ Department of Agriculture will have a
/ chance to study a squirrel epidemic at its
! height, and this is much more important
! matter than the general public may sup
| pose
The department has been striving for
several years to find a disease among
| squirrels. rats or ra bbits that is epidemic
in one or all these classes of small ami
mails without being dangerous to man or
/ domestic stock. Every and then
! there is such an outbreak noted, usually
| at some distant point in the wilds, and
by the time capable men can be sent to
i the scene of the outbreak 1t is over and
the germ of the disease has escaped: In
view of the fact that rats. rabbits, field
mice and pocket gophers do damage
amounting TO scores of millions of dollars
each year the desrability of finding some
epidemic disease that can be spread
among them is easily appreciated.
Problem in France.
i The French have been working at this
/ problem for a number of years. and about
/ three years ago it thought that a
serum fatal to rabbits had been discov-
cred by an Austrian scientist. The gov
| ernment of Australia much i'm
/ pressed with the report that it made q
/ contract with this gentleman at a com.
pensation amounting to $4,000 year for
a term of three years and paid his eX-
/ penseS to Australia and set him up in a
laboratory on an island in the Bay of
/ Sydney. The serum, however. failed to
work and the attempt was finally aban-
doned.
The deaths among the squirrels are re-
garded by the biological survey of the
i Department of Agriculture as particularly
| worth investigating at this time. owing
TO the fact that there has been an out
break of bubonic plague coming from the
! ground squirrels of Contra Costa county
on the Pacific coast. This is due to the
| fact that the flea which carries the bu-
/ bonlc plague and was originally found
/ only among the rats in San Francisco
| and Seattle has extended it's zone of ac-
tivity to the ground squirrel and is max
| ing them effective agents in the spread

CIRCUS COMES
TODAY IN FIVE
LONG TRAINS
BIG SHOW WILL REACH PENSA-
COLA WITH HEAVIEST EQUIP
MENT EVER BROUGHT HERE BY
ANY SIMILAR ORGANIZATION.

Boys who can still bark back to the
old-time stunt with the water pail,
and girls who in other days chung to
their mothers in awe while bespangled
performers fiirted with death, can
romp to the circus grounds tomorrow
and see the latest and best develop
ment of the circus idea as eXempli-
fed by the Barnum and Bailey circus.
The "boys" can take along their sons
and the girls" their daughters, and
tomorrow for three hours howl

According to instructions issued to
railroad men last night, five long cir
Gus trains will reach this city today,
the first about dawn, to be followed at
intervals by the other four. The IN
loading will be done at leisure, as the
show will not be given until tomorrow
The first performance is at o'clock
the second at 8 o'clock. The parade
will start at 10 o'clock Monday morn
ing from the West Garden street
grounds.
The first train, or flying squadron
as the show people term it, will come
first This will bring the commissary
department and most of the large
working force. The second and third
trains will bring the zoo, tentage, etc,
while the last trains will bring the
performers, ring stock, led" animals,
including 30 elephants, "a camels, and
more than the usual quota of zebras,
sacred cattle, fine horses, llamaS, ala
pacaS, etc.
Yesterday the show exhibited in
Montgomery and this morning, before
the average mortal in Pensacola has
turned over for his beauty sleep the
first of the trains will have arrived
here. Then will come the activity
only to be seen with so many men
getting ready the circus tents. There
will be but few sleepy heads with the
kids this morning. Youngsters who
usually kick at getting up early will be
on hand when the first train arrives,
ready and more than willing to keep
earnest vigil until the last train
reaches here.

Every woman strives to acquire and

the height of the feminine ambition
No more fallacious epigram was ever
penned than the one which says that
beauty is only skin deep; and no
greater mistake can possibly be made
in endeavOring to gain a clear, pref

pies, blackheads and other skin blem-

ders, lemon juice, cold cream, cleo

alone, and have no effect whatever
on the blood, or on the general sys-

Whenever you see a person with a
clear, flawless complexion, you may De

not on the local application of the
many fad treatments on the market,
but exclusively upon a pure, whole
some condition of the blood, and upon
its active, vigorous circulation through
the skin.
It is the blood which gives the skin
its rosy color, and although electric
massage, and other local treatments
may draw the blood temporarily TO
the surface of the skin, it cannot keep
it there. Only a strong circulation
can do that. When the blood be-
comes impoverished and the circula-
ton sluggish, the complexion, as a
natural sequence, becomes sallow or

than all the cosmetics, beauty pow

They purify and renovate the blood
so completely that the complexion

Besides relieving the system Of
