we went over to the stock ex-

New York. Nov. 30.

New YORK, Nov. ~.
Editor Time: In company
with frankie this morning we
made a trip to the aquarium,
located d ,wn on the river front
in Caste Garden. This is one
of the greatest places in New
York City to visit. Here one
can see every kind of fish in
the world, from a whale to a
miniature fish not over half an
inch long. About the strangest
fish we saw in the whole outfit
is called the ribbon Fish" 1t
is about three feet lorg, but 1t
isn't over an inch in thickness
and when it floats around in
water it looks like a piece of
pale green ribbon four or five
inches wide. 1t is one of the
queerest specimens ever seen
in this country. Another very
interesting specimen we saw
this morning was a couple of
young seals. They were as
playful as kittens and swan on
their backs most of the time,
whether this is a characteristic
of the seal or not we do not
know, but we don't remember
ever having seen the older seals
swimming that way. An hour
at the aquarium is about the
most interesting place one can
visit in this city. After leav-
ing the aquarium we went up
to the old Trinity church, and
and as it was 1890 the chimes
were ringing for the forene on
services land by the way This
church has the most beautiful
chimes in the United States)
end as We had nothing else to
do we went into the church fer
half an hour and listened to
the wonderful music of the
pipe organ, one of the most cell
ebrated organs in the U. S.
After coming out of the
church we examined the old
tombstones in the church yard
adjoining the church. The
graves here date back as far as
1920 and one sees the most Pc
cular epitaphs here of any
church found in this county.
At the door of the church is
the stone marking the grave
of VIM. Baker, transferred to
this cemetery in 1873, we didn't
find out why VIM. should have
been given such a public place
for burial, but that he was here

To draw trade, business men often make

winters, which she has spent in Wash
ington. tells me that she can live here
with enjoyment and self-improvement AT
less cost than in any other place she has
ever visited. There are so many meet

The table OF prices speaks for itself

of living can be no greater. and we be-
iieve it is less in Washington than IN

The t!Opic sun is shining on q bright and happy dsy,
The crowds hoarso with cheering and the band

With spear in hand and riding On their horses tall

But cries Of Idiot" nov are heard, and Take that

The ring is full Of lemons and one horse without

WHEN THE PRESS STARTS.

Have you ever been there when the press
starts
In the misty dawn OF the morn.
When lights burn low and time drags
slow.
And the tire of life is born7
A tire that comes ere the press starts,
A duIlness that sears and stings.
From the time that you write the last
story at night
Till the bell for the press starting rings
A hush floats down ere the press starts
For moment the world stands STILL
Then the grind and roar through the
pressroom door.
Sends the news TO save or kin.
For lives are made when the press starts.
And lives are ruined In the dawn,
When the first wet sheet on the lonely
street.
Gives the stories from heart throbs
drawn.
A life in the tolls when the press starts
To tell to the world its tale,
To feed its mead TO nations greed
And to rend the sophist's veil
There's a clash and roar when the
press starts.
And the noise OF hurrying feet
There are calls and commands from the
mailroom hands,
AS the bundles are borne TO the street.
But few ever mind when the press starts
Save those who are paid for the stress
OF their love and faith in that tickle
wrath
The Goddess of News and the press.

COST OF LIVING IN WASHINGTON

Editor The Washington Herald:
The statement recently made, or re-
ported 10 be made, by so high an au-
thority as Secretary Wilson that Wash
ington is the most expensive place of
residence in the country was a distinct
shock to many. Why should board be
so much lower than it is in and around
New York City IL the cost of living were
higher? 1t is all due to the lack OF thrift
on the part Of the Washington boarding
house keeper: or is that, combined with
the higher rents in and around New York
City. the cause? It led the writer care
fully TO investigate prices in the places
mentioned, and I here give the results
OF nay investigation. My effort has been
10 report the lowest retail prices Of the
best goods in each instance. So the grade
Of goods is the same throughout and the
prices were secured simultaneously, just
