SHAD HERE FROM FLORIDA.
Big Shipment of 800 Fish Is FRS
of Open Season.

Residents of Washington can now eat
shad without violating the game laws of
the District OF Columbia.
But shad are scarce and sell a prices
somewhat out of the reach OF the ordinary
pocketboOk. The first shad of the season
were received here Yesterday from Florida.
There We're about 300 fish in the ship
ment They were fine specimens OF their
kind and sold TO the retail dealers in Cen
ter and other markets at about S1.2J each
for roes and 80 cents for bucks
The receipt of shad SO early in the sea-
son Is said by the dealers to be rather
unusual and is attributed to tae warm
winter starting the fish 70 running in
Florida earlier than usual. AT this time
Of the year it is not uncommon to have d
few shad in shipment from Florida. but
900 fish in the first shipment is considered
remarkable.
Shad will now be received in varying
quantities almost daily from the southern
states. From Florida they will gradually
work ND the coast 10 the Carolinas. nd

COLORED Y. w. C. AS WORK.
Ohio Clubwoman Says Public Baths

At the quarterly meeting OF the col

BAPTIST Church Monday night. an address
upon The Social Impulse was made by
Mrs Carrie Clifford, an active club worker
among women of the state of Ohio The
work of Jane Adams of Hull House. Chi
caco, was dwelt upon as an example OF
what one having and acting upon a de-
sire to help mankind could accomplish
Mrs Clifford stated the imperative need
of Washington to be public lighthouses.
The criticism might be made that the
work of the colored Y. ". g. a. is not
strictly along Y. NJ. c. A. lines. So great
is tie need Of Improvement among the
mass Of colored people OF this city along
many lines that it is difficult for any body
of workers to restrict itself to any Spe

four boys were kept from the reform

DEVICES FOR TRAIN CONTROl
ELABORATE REPORT ON INvEN-
TIoNS MADE TO CONGRESS.
Only Twelve Out of 371 Examined
Found Worthy to Be Installed
at Government Expense.

An elaborate report has been submitted
control board of the interstate commerce
commission.
During the last year the board exam
ined the specifications OF 81 devices, 24S
OF these being block signal. cab signal or
automatic train-stopping devices. Only
twelve of the devices were considered to
possess sufficient merit to warrant the
board in authorizing the inventors TO es-
ia blish a working installation with view
TO conducting tests at the government 5
expense.
In its investigation Of the telesra phi
block system the board finds that many
of the block signal men in the United
States are lacking in training and in
experience. Here and there the board has
found instances of the employment of
men whose incompetency was manifest.
and in some cases there has been evidence
of the excessive use of intoXcants.
In its investigation in Europe the boa I'd
found that the signal men. as "a rule. are
better trained than those in America.
and that the system is operated under d
stricter personal supervision. So far as
the safety devices themselves are con-
cerned. it is believed by the board that
little is TO be learned by American rail-
way managers from a study of Europe
and its railways.
Telephones recently have been extern
siVely introduced in lieu Of the tee-
graph in block signaling. and has been
found that they operate admirably

Crying Brings Relief to
Tired and Nervous Women

Fears are a valuable. and incidentally a
much abused, means OF relieving nervous
tension. For relief their Importance can
not be ,overeS timated; bur when they are
allowed 20 flow To the extent of creating
weakness they become a source of danger
Justifying heroic measures TO stop. a lit
tie crying, at times. is excellent and ha {
often saved the mind of more than one
woman, but the crying habi. is almos,
as deeply to be deplored as that of taking
a drug.
In effect the results of the two are NOT
very different. Excessive Weeping weak
ems the mind and nerves as we'll as the
character. 1t also taxes The physical
strength. and a woman who allows herself
To Indulge in burst of tears every time
there is the slightest cause shows no more
strength of mind and character tnan
might be expected of a child
One OF the times when tears are Justified
is when woman has been through a Sc

wrought up to d point of exhaustion But
this point has by no means been reached
simply because she is annoyed, for exam
pie, OF has been disappointed 4 child
cries when refused candy; il Il woman also
sheds tears because she cannot have a
new gown or go TO the theater there is
little to choose between the two indiyid-
uals, except that she Is old enough to
know better. No wise person permits the
child to continue crying. and certainly the
woman should not permit herself such
outburSts.
Yet if she is experiencing great grief.
whether ii comes suddenly. or after weeks
such death through Illness, tears. for a
time. will help. But should she allow
them tn continue they will take from her
strength just surely as would the CON
slant use of a drug.
This fact a woman who does not wish
to belittle her mind and character should
remember Whining. tears being squeezed
out on the slightest provocation are I'M
justified. a good. hearty cry that leaves
the person refreshed and stronger none

gently dried. The finger tips arc then

first to the middle of the cheeks. With
a rotary motion that gradually increases

making the upward part OF the stroke
stronger than the downward, that the
muscles shall not sag.
More cream is used in the rotary mo-
ton that goes over the temples, and the
strokes on the forehead depend upon it's
condition. If there are lines from raising
the brows the massage should be from
the edge Of the hair down. drawing off
to the temples. Each should smooth tie

binc is straight from the nose TO each
temple.
Before going out of doors a very light
applrat ton of the cream should be put
on the face. \ soft cloth will remove
any supert'uoTs quantity, after which
powder may be applied.
When coming indoors it would he well
to wipe with some of the astringent To-
