TAKING A CAMERA ABROAD.
It Behooves One to Be Careful at
What It Is Pointed.
From Country Life in. America.

From Country Life In, America
If the American tourist carries his
camera to Europe with him he must be
careful to avoid photographing persons,
private property and particularly gov
ernment buildings, forts. docks and ships
without permission. Many tourists have
got themselves into much trouble in this
way, especially in Russia. where the re-
strictions are unusually rigid, and in
Germany also,
A few years ago Germany passed
special bill through the reichstag dealing
with this matter and imposing heavy
penalties upon those who infringe the
regulations. Damages to the amount OF
Imprisonment, will henceforth be the fate
of any one who snapshots private per-
son, work of art or the interior OF
private building and circulates or pub
fishes the picture without permission.
Persons in the public eye, such as MEM
bers Of the royal family, statesmen, ac-
tors and well known divines are excepted.
So, too, are public buildings and works
of art In public galleries.
In Portugal the authorities are curious
ly suspicious. gentleman recently
wrote to q London paper saying that he
was arrested for swapping the royal
palace at Cintra. 1t is possible, how
ever. that under the new Portuguese re-
gime the palaces will no longer be held
so sacred.

large city Of Europe and many smaller

large supply but a developing tank is ad-

are. Standard chemicals for tank devel-

FROG IN HER STOMACH
FOR NEARLY A YEAR
Mrs. Fannie King Of Deanwood Has
Unusual Experie1ce-Re-
moved by Physician.

Mrs. Fannie King, who lives on Brown
ing street in Deanwcod, is thoroughly
convinced of the authenticity of that
story about Jonah and the whale, because
she has had a somewhat similar expert
ence, with frog cast for Jonahs part
and she herself having role similar in
many respects to that of the whale.
Last Angus: Mrs King had occasion to
take a drink of water from the well
back of her house. 1t was dark, and she
couldn't see whether anything was in
the water or not but she thought she
swallowed some small object 1t did not
worry her. however, until this spring,
when the frog (for such 1T was she had
swailowed) began to stretch out his legs
and make little journeys of exploration.
She naturally became very nervous,
and sent for a doctor. She told him her
idea of what was the matter with her,
but he laughed at the suggestion, putting
her troubles down to nervousness. She
guilt. While one of the doctors was
there, the frog emitted long howl. or
chirp, or whatever sound 1t is that frog
emits, but still the doctor remained in
credulous
Finally in desperation Mrs. King went
to the Emergency Hospital and Succeed
ed in persuading DR.. Heintzen that there
was something unusual the matter with
her. He called at her house the next day
and removed the intruder with the aid
OF stomach pump. The frog was seven
inches long, very thin. somewhat mis-
shapen and covered with large spots He
lived only ten minutes exposed to the
more severe climate. of the outer air.
Mrs. King says that Che frog followed
her around the room when 1t heard her
voice. so she fled from the. room and did
not witness it's last gasps.
At present the frog is adorning the
mantel of the Ising home, preserved in
alcohol.

When the clay attained red color the

MAPS BY DAYLIGHT.
Grand, Good Things for Nervous
Women and Hard Workers.
From the Christian Hera Id.

From the Christian Herald.
Thousands of women are far too busy
ever to think of taking a nap in the day
time. They would laugh at the suggestion
were it made to them. When one tells
these busy women that they are nervous
and in need of repose, and that they may
preserve their youth, strength and charm
by taking regular rests by daylight, they
shake their heads and smile with pity on
the foolish advisers. If a woman's occu-
patton is that of a cashier, clerk or ste
nographar she has no choice except to de-
vote herself to the task in hand, and ig-
more the fact that she is weary until the
allotted time of work is over. If she IS
mother with little children making all
sorts of demands she knows very well
probably prove a failure. Inere are
great many ifs that present themselves
as obstacles of an insuperable nature
when tired and busy women try to Sc
cure intervals Of rest in the morning or
afternoon Yet ii is true that where
there's a will there's a way" Five min
utes' or ten minutes level rest on sofa
will work wonders when one is weary. IL
only there is perfect relaxation from ten

ries with the individual. Sometimes it is
well to select a half-hour before luncheon.
Food is more easily digested and assimi-
lated when the body has had period or
rest than when one comes to the table
with depleted brain tissue. If the nervous
energy has been very strongly taxed and
is nearly exhausted before eating, dys-
pepsia may be the resulting consequence.
To lie down Immediately after meal Is
not so good a plan as to delay doing SO
until an hour or more may have passed
Those who have the care of little chli-
dren ought to insist on their having time
to sleep by daylight. The mother Of a
child not much over two years old told
friend that she did not allow her little
daughter to take nap through the day
because she wanted to put her to bed at
6 O'Clock, and be sure that she would
sleep all night. The child was high
strung and fretful. thin and pallid, and,
though she slept all night as her mother
wished, she was neither rosy nor plump,
nor vet good d-humored during the day.
The rapidly developing brain was not re-
ceiving its proper amount OF repose. In
I'll a child is seven or eight years old the
wise mother will encourage the habit OF
lying down for a while every day in the

the expression of a current fad. 1t means
much else, however. Since the introduc-

the first wave of popularity that car
ried it forward, the number of enthusi-

MANEUVERS. ARE BEGUN.
Congress Expected to Correct Error
Hazarding Army Encampments.

The whole extensive program for the
joint encampments and maneuvers of the
regular army and the National Guard.
which began today, came near being sus-
pended through an omission in the enroll
ment of the act of Congress providing for
the exercises.
In the haste of the legislators. the law
bore the usual initial declarations: by the
Senate and the House of Representatives
of the United States. But the words
"of America" which should have follow
ed. were omitted. and the act thus was
made invalid.
The War Department law officers, how
ever, discovered that the appropriations
for the maintenance of the regular eStab-
lishmsnt might be used to a limited extent
for about two weeks to defray the ex-
penses of the troops, and before the ex-
piration of that time Congress is expected
to correct the error.

The practice of eating earth Is not
confined to any race or region of the

Poetic Justice in France.
From the Green Bag.

From the Green Bag.
The following is case of poetic justice
as meted out in France:
A well known Partisan architect was
sitting in his office when he heard a
knock at the door. As he wished to be
alone, he took no notice Of the knock. but
went on with his work. few moments
later he heard a key moving in the lock.
Not doubling that his visitor was bur-
glar, the architect armed himself with a
revolver and quietly hid behind some cur.
tains. Presently the thief entered and
proceeded to rifle the place. Then sud
denly he started and grew pale. In
mirror he had seen revolver leveled at
his head from behind the curtains.

tect, land shout Police!

APPROVED BY SENATE.
Resolution Providing Funds for Mill
tia Returned to House.

The Senate has passed the resolution,
already passed by the House, appropri-
ating 81 $50. 900 for summer maneuvers of
the militia of the states and of the Dis
trict of Columbia.
Senator du Pont, chairman of the Sen
ate committee on military affairs. report
ed the committees approval of the meas
ure, and it went through without dis
cussion. This appropriation is usually
carried in the regular army appropriation
bill. but the Presidents veto of that
measure prevented the money from be-
coming available just at the time the
militia desired TO go to their summer
camps.
An error in the enacting clause will
make il necessary for the House to again
pass the resolution. The House forgot to
put in "of America" after the words
United States.
