fish in the Chesapeake and Ohio canal
this fall.
1t is probable that the game warden
will soon consult Fish Commissioner
Bowers and interest him in the work OF
saving thousands of fish when the water
is drawn from the canal for the winter
Unless something is done to save them,
it is stated, they probably will remain
IN the holes in the canal and be dipped
from them.
There are three ardent fishermen in the
Lewis family on Capitol Hill. They are
Fred. George and Frank Lewis, brothers.
and they have not missed many oppor-
tunities during the past few years to en-
JOY plscatorial sport.
George Lewis thinks catching small
mouth black bass is the only sport, while
Fred Is satisfied to spend time on salt
water and land trout, tailors. spots and
other fish found in such water. Frank
Lewis says he is satisfied to catch any
thing in the water.
The three brothers spent part of their
summer in Camp Lewis. near Lodge, Va,
where they caught fish and crabs, en-
joyed the salt water bathing and crab
blnS and participated in oyster and crab
feasts. Since abandoning camp they
have journeyed to other parts of the
river and caught various kinds of fish.
Last Sunday Frank went to Chappa-
wamsic and landed a long string Of big
mouth bass.

Joseph Perron gave the big mouth has

Mrs. Bulwinkle was standing in front
of the church holding the reflector in her

You will not notice the development in
your body SO quickly, but you will be
adding strength and tenacity to every
long muscle affected.
You might be obliged to work fifteen
to thirty minutes day for five years to
really see what you have accomplished
but you would be in better physical trim
than the other fellow would be in two
years from the time he stopped taking
his short-muscle exercise.
Business men should make this proper
kind Of development part of their daily
lives, not. merely for year or two, but
continuously. Then they have something
that they can always bank on, and that
will ever respond to their requirements.

For several days the mystery remained
unsolved until Prince Albert. in burst

hitherto heard nothing at all about the

ed the sinner on the spot. But the queen
refused. to see anything funny in the
boyish prank. and the princes had to
listen to a curtain lecture of unusual
length and severity.
1t is more than likely that Queen Alex
andra will stay abroad much longer than
usual this year, and there are many at
court who think that she may not return
at all to this country, except for brief
visits. unless Queen Mary decides to be
less disagreeable toward her than here

staying at her lovely villa on the DAN

simplicity and surrounded by people who

prise awaiting her at Hvidore in the
shape of a beautiful little Norwegian
cottage. which her daughter Queen Maud
of Norway. had built on hill in the
park, from which there is lovely view
of the glittering blue sound and the

Delighted the Royal Boys.

The invasion of the suffra gettes into
the golf grounds and the commotion
1t caused greatly delighted the royal
boys. and especially Prince Albert. who
finds life at the Scotch castle dread
fully monotonous
After some persuasion, he succeeded
in inducing his older brother to join
him in playing a practical joke on the
tiresome grown-up people who dwell at
the castle, and so it happened that q
day or two later the servants of the
castle made a most gruesome discovery
CS the bedroom door of Mr.. Winston
Churchill, who was the kings guest at
the time, was found posted big white
sheet Of paper bearing the inscription
Votes for Women"
Had a letter from the Black Hand So
ciety been found among the mail in
tended for the august people dwelling
at the castle it could have created no
greater panic.
The queen. who, of course. is the actual
ruler Of the royal household, was imme-
diately informed and every housemaid
and other female servant was cross-ex-
amined by the queen personally. but they
all Indignantly denied any knowledge of
the dreadful poster. While the examina-
ton was going on a pale and excited
chauffeur brought the news that similar
posters, with the same inscription in
bloOd-red ink. had been found on every
motor car in the royal garage.

LONDON, October "a few weeks
ago all England was loyalty indignant
at the suffragettes because they had
dared invade the premises of royalty
and annoy the guests Of the king and
queen at Balmoral. According to the
English way Of thinking, no crime is
more detestable and heinous than that
of offending the king and queen. who
are looked upon as vastly different from
the ordinary citizen, and the press de-
clared that no punishment could pos
sibly be hard enough for the feminine
evildoers who had carried their fight
for woman's suffrage into sacred ter
ritory.
1t now appears that the poor suf-
ragettes are innocent of the dreadful
crime of which they were suspected.
They did invade the royal golf grounds,
but the graver crimes which were after

MORE HOSPITALS ARE NEEDED
Situation Improved, BW Further Work
Is Needed to Stamp Out
tuberculosis.

Only four states, Mississippi, Ne
vada, Utah. and Wyoming, have no
beds whatever in special hospitals or
wards for consumptives. Eight years
ago when the National Association for
the Study and Prevention of Tubercu-
losis was organized, there were 26
states In which no hospital or sanato-
rum provision for consumptives exist
ed and the entire number of beds In
the United States was only 10000.
While these figures would indicate
a remarkable growth in anti-tubercu
losis activity" says DR.. Livingston
Farrand, executive secretary of the
National association, in commenting
on the subject, there are still prac-
tcally ten INDECENT consumptives for
every one of the 10000 beds, including
those for pay patients. In other words,
we have from 250,OO0 to 100000 con-
sumptives in this country too poor to
provide hospital care for themselves
If tuberculosis Is ever going to be
stamped out in the United States,
more hospital provision for these foci
OF infection must b provided "

WILLING TO SHARE PENNIES
Generous Act Of Street Walt That
Gained Him a Friend In
Great Novelist.

Charles Dickens thu creator Of
many delightful child characters,
earned a million dollars during his
lifetime with his pen, but often walked
the streets Of Londo3 in search Of
material for his books without penny
in his pocket
One evening while doing this he
was accosted by n small boy who
asked him for a penny. Dickens
searched his pockets, but they were
empty, and so he told the boy, who
was shivering in the cold
Poor mani" exclaimed the little
fellow, "we'll 90 hunks together!"
Dickens stood back In the shadow
Of the street to see what the outcome
would be. The lad continued to beg,
and finally gained two pennies, He
came dancing to Dickens with jolly
ring In his voice
Now" he said, wen have two hot
buns aplece!"
Such a generous spirit under such
trying circumstances struck Dickens
so forcibly that he took the lad home
with him, and there he was fed and
clothed, and started on the road to a
better life.

AS A MATTER OF BUSINESS
The Beauty and Orderly Keeping OF
Ones Home Town Should Appeal
to Every Resident.

"The cities of Europe" declares an
expert, consider civic beauty an alb
solute asset in cash, Paris, for exam
pie, invariably has an eye to the beau
tiful in whatever it does Paris would
never dare to lose its prestige as the
most beautiful city In the world. That
would be bad business.
1--WE ought to consider It a ruinous
business policy for one of our cities
not to protect its beauty. Take the
railroad problem in our cities. At
present some railroads are beginning
to brace up and do splendid things, but
for a long time wherever we had
railroad in a city It was death and
desperation so far as beauty was con.
cerned.
I'VE ought to do the same in other
things. Here each fellow has gone
ahead for himself, without regard to
others. A city ought to be a unity,
Each Citizen should be allowed to do
what he pleases only in so far as he
does not hurt the city as Whole. AS
soon as he does that he should be
stopped"
In conclusion he said.
mo one man is competent to plan a
city, Such a task needs a comblna'
tion Of men. The problems Of city
planning today are not L'Enfants nor
Sir Christopher Wren's. What we now
have to face is far more complicated,
"City planning should be undertaken
by architects, landscaplsts, traffic eX'
perts, and the various types Of engi'
neers working together, All these men,
before making plans for the rebuilding
OF cities, should give special study to
the various difficulties Of civic i'm
provement,"
