White Whales.

Some snow white whales have been seen, and some caught and killed. These answer to albinos in humans. The sea swarms with life, but the tiny creatures in it exceed by myriads the larger forms. So upon these minutia whales feed, and not only feed, bless you, but get fat as whales. You are not likely ever to see the man. moth of the sea grubbing and gorging himself, but you are likely to see a duck grubbing for food in the mud. The duck proceeds pretty much like whale. The duck Is hunting after tiny creatures. just as does the whale, So quack grabs a billful of mud. and, squirting out the refuse, retains what is good for him to eat. The bird has in it's mouth no whalebone, hairy trap
 like the bristles on the back of board, to help hold his tiny prey, but it has an equally beautiful fish trap in the peculiar shape of his bill, which answers the same purpose. From the size of a whales mouth. don't think he could swallow you, not bit of it;
 his swallow or gullet is hardly big enough to shove a mans hand in. The whales mouth is mechanically and artifcially speaking. one of the most wonderful traps in the world. Just by way of Illustrating this, some whales have been seen a fathom or so down with their mouths wi6e

THE BULLETINS DAILY STORY
ARGUING IT OUT

T am going," said Cashman, T have to preserve my dignity. But l there's one thing I'd like to know. It would relieve my mind. Aren't you ever going to marry anybody"
 "Oh, suppose so," admitted Miss Ferguson, unwillingly, as she folded one of the portieres about her, leaving her attractive blond head emerging as from sheath of gloom Then you'd better hurry up about it." said Cashman.
 Men who can pay the grocery bills" he went on, "are getting scarcer every day and there's new crop of 1S-year- old buds coming on every year. I've proposed to you in eight of my best styles, trying to find some way which would conform to your idea of novel, ty, because I knew that to such an expert as yourself the ordinary pro- posal would not make you drop an eyelash. Yet I am still groping for a clew. You must have some secret preference in the proposal line that haven't played up to. Come on and tell me what fellows got to do to. win out with you!'
 Miss Ferguson gave the portIere an- other twist about herself and looked up from under her lashes. T don't want to get married particularly" she said T suppose I've got to, though, some time, because I'll get tired of do- ing everything else"
 Well, what are you waiting TOT demanded Cashman.
 "Oh, I don't know she said. 1T rather think that some morning about 10 o'clock if the doorbell should ring and a man I happened to like pretty well should walk in and wave a mar riage license in my face and shout Come on; I've a cab at the door and I've 'phoned the minister that we'll be there in ten, minutes, and you haven't time to change your dress or find your gloves!' I'd be so charmed with his audacity that I'd go right along! Maybe, though, I wouldn't!"
 ''Daisyt' said Cashman, that's enough for me! I'll be here at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning and in the meantime

Infant Mortality.

Milk is the only food fer infants, and milk is a very difficult article to keep in perfect condition. Adulteration by water is a relatively trivial danger compared with the infection of milk with the germs of disease. There are gratifying evidences that the depart ment of public health and charities, the modified milk society, the bureau of municipal research, the visiting nurse society and several other benevolent organizations are working in associa- ton to improve the quality of the sup ply of milk. to induce dealers and mothers to take better care of milk and to give instruction in the care of sick babies and to help the mothers care for them. The result of all these efforts is said to be 8 decrease of 40 per cent. in infant mortality during the past summer in certain wards where efforts were concentrated.
 Director Neff and his assistants are watching the milk brought into the city and when the germs of disease are discovered the dairymen are promptly notified and are required to produce evidence that sick COW has been iso- lated from the herd before more milk can bs supplied here; or, if typhoid germs appear, mea sures are taken to

Having just been refused by her for the eighth time, Cashlnan regard ed Miss Ferguson argumentatively.
 But, you know" he said, you've got to get married some time and you might just as well marry me as any one else'
 You certainly have a good opinion of yourself" observed Miss Ferguson, crushingly.
 In fact" he proceeded calmly, you might a great deal better take me when you come to think of it!'
 "Why%' the young lady was driven into demanding.
 Well for one thing. you're in love with me" began Cashman, but that was as far as he got.
 Wilfred D. Cashman!" the young lady broke in at this point, springing to her feet indignantly. T won't lis ten to you another minute! The idea. l won't be talked to that way"
 Just as you say" returned Cash mar, pacifically. I'll try another way"
 You'll do nothing of the sort!" she retorted You'll go home this min ute, because I'm tired of listening to you!"
 You're 26," said Cashman, feeling ly as he looked for his hat. You've been fooling around, wrecl1ing the
 
 seven or eight years and it's time for you to quit. You've got the habit of saying no just as you've got the habit of eating breakfast food. It's grown to be a sort of recreation for you. All you need is to be jolted out of the rut and then when I try to jolt you in stead of appreciating my benevolent endeavors you go and get mad.
 Do you know that when you are angry your hair fluffs out all around your head just like the feathers of a chicken that's on it's car"
 "Wilfred." said Miss Ferguson in a deadly tone. You're worse than us- ual tonight. You're absolutely crazy!" You did it. said Cashman with his hand on the doorknob. That's your own work! Honest, Daisy don't you like me a. little bit ?' 'Wilfred.'' said Miss Ferguson sharply. 'ff I were madly in love with you I'd hate you this minute for being so idiotic! Are-you going?"

WOULD KNOW WHOM TO PROD.

From New Haven comes the sugges- cion that lists be prepared in every city and town, containing the names of voters who failed to vote at the elec- | ton just passed. The check lists, of course. show what. men failed to go to the polls. and town committees will be pretty likely to secure a record of these. with a view to knowing whom
 to prod two years hence. Thousands of men shirked the responsibility of citizenship this year-so many of them did so, in fact that it is little wonder there is talk of having a law passed to compel voters to vote, or risk hav- ing an extra tax imposed upon them. Ncn- voters, by the way, are not in a position to criticise the outcome of an election, nor to find fault with the kind of government handed out to them. Here in .Ansonia it would be interesting to know whether more re-
 publicans than democrats remained away from the polls. This much is known of democrats there was no se-
 rious lack.-Ansonia Sentinel
 Why should we always be seeking
 the man to prod instead of the man to eliminate? The man who has not

 barters his vote, obtaining money by false pretence, usually is politely re- | ferred to as a "floater," and he cir culates every election day with pock- etful of ill-gotten gain of which he | openly brags.

 CONTESTED ELECTIONS.

We are promised election contests in plenty. The Milford result is to be de- termined by the courts; MT. Jodoin threatens to dispute Congressman Higgins return to Washington the Seventeenth district is not sure whom 1t elected to the state senate Candi- date Sperry demands a recount for the probate judgeshiI in Bridgeport and there are others. The record of such proceedings in this state shows that in almost every instance the original verdict has been sustained. More-' over. such is :he trend of human nature that ~ contesting candidates usually lose caste with the voters suf- ncient to eliminate them from future political prominence. Regardless of the legal issues many people seem to consider the contests unsportsmanlike and consequently a thing to be re- bulled. It certainly is so when the ground of contest is simply suspicion based on appointment.-W Waterbury American.
 The above is all very true. The de- feated candidate who threatens to take his case to Washington because he expects partisan favor there. re- gardless of the vote of his constitu- ents or the action of the judges pre- siding st the recount of the votes, has not the principle or the honor which cammends a man to the voters for Cheir support second time. The de- cision Of the juGses will settle the matter in the Third district and there seems to be no reason to expect that Congressman Higgins plurality will be overturned by the correction of the mistakes of the counters or the nisin- terpretation of the law by the mod orators of the meetings.
