the country the little rodent is looked
uron with disdain by those who claim to
know a good thing when they see 1t, but
when they talk of it as being an unclean
animal and unfit for the stomach of man
it only goes to show how little they know
of this, the cleanest of all animals that
live.
The great majority of people are pre-
iudiced against the muskrat because it
bears the name of rat BY any other name
il would eagerly be sought after by cpl
cures The roots and herbs of the marsh
es, on which alone it subsists, are thor
oughly scrubbed by the little animal be
fore it will allow them to come on its
table
The house in which it lives, made of
the marsh grasses and towering above the
high water mark, rs always as dry as a
powder magazine and spotlessly clean, so
there is nothing about the much desplsed
rat of the great marshes to make it other
than what it really is, the cleanest and
most toothsome little animal that can be
cooked up and served.
AT all the leading restaurants on the
eastern shore the muskrat in season takes
the leading role at midnight suppers. The
muskrat industry of the Maryland PENN
sula bids fair to overstep the oyster in
duStry, and it is certain that there was
more clear money made by the trappers
IN lower Dorchester this season than by
the oystermen."

Paul Gilmore and his company in The
Call of the North is said to give a most
colorful and lifelike portrayal of life on
the extreme Canadian frontier, around
Hudson Bay. This new comedy drama by
George Broadhurst, author of The Man

cesses, is a dramatization of the popular
novel, Coniuror's House, by Stewart Ed

Ned Trent (Mr. Gilmore) daring young
adventurer who has trespassed upon for
hidden territory to trade with the In
dams for furs, and finds himself at logger
heads with the ancient and powerful
Hudson Bay company. The equipment of
scenery. costumes and effects of The Call

Joshua Whitcomb is a character, not a

lasting appeal of The Old Homestead lies
in the whole play, all the characters and
the general atmosphere. Keep that at

for this seasons pelts, to say nothing OF
what they received from the sale OF the

rental of the marshes, the cost of the
traps and the expense of looking after
them.
One fur buyer of Hooper's Island, IN
lower Dorchester. has paid out 10000 for
muskrat hides this season, while Others
have bought almost as heavily. The prices
offered by buyers this season ranged from
80 to IS cents hide, the hide from the

been considered almost worthless, bringing

The big black rat commanded the top
of the market always the black fur being
considered the finest as well as the most
