LIABILITY LAW - UPHELD.


tattoAAA-
After nearly . years consideration
the Supreme Court OF the United
States Monday gave It's unanimous
approval 10 the employers liability
Law, enacted By Congress In 1905 TO
take the place Of q similar act de-
clared unconstitutional. The decision
marks an epoch in labor legislation.
The old common Law. hedging In
the rights Of employees. Is displaced
in several particulars by the statute
as approved to-day. Notably among
these Is the abolition of the fellow
servant doctrine" and the suhstitu-
ton OF d Law, making employers II
able for the negligence OF an en-
ploye resulting In injury TO an inter
state employe. Furthermore. IL frees
the employe from "contributory neg
/ ligence" in many instances and lin
its the effect OF the doctrine in 9TH
ers; and likewise in many cases lib
crates the employe from assuming
the risk when he enters employment
knowing of the danger in his employ
ment.

Game dealers usually judge the condition
OF the bird by inspecting the conditi IN
of the skin near the vent. IL IL is found
to be dark and easily moved it Is consid-
cred to be in the first stage OF decomposi-
ton. Usually when game has been
packed too tightly In boxes for shipment,
especially during the warm. damp we tn
er, 1t is in an unfit condition on arrival
at the market, so that the length Of time 10

its fitness for food.
Fresh pheasants have stin wings and
legs: the eyes are prominent, the feet

show stiff feet and shrunken eyes, and
the top skin may easily be rubbed off by

"Since the canvas-back duck is the best
known of all the wild ducks, ii might be
well to take the inspection OF IL as a
sample for all ducks. Methods of in
spection are the same as for tame ducks,
and IL must not be forgotten that all wild
ducks have black feet.
The general conclusion drawn from
numerous tests as to the value of cold
storage for chickens is that for several
months, if the storage is properly done.

gave forth heart-breaking cries. and
asked the dealer what the trouble was.
He said that when the smaller monkey

promptly adopted her. They had been
fnseparable since. l did not have the
heart to take one from the other, under
the circumstances, and procured both and
brought them here.
Three years ago. the sight Of the black
baboon began to fail, and now she is
totally blind. In affectionate, parental
style, the care-taking order has been
reversed. You can see for yourselves the
interest and care the little pig-tailed,
yellow monkey exhibits for it's foster
mother. 1t helps her up and down the
cage, selects the best place for her to sit
and the reliance and dependence Of the
older monkey are pathetic. When meal
time comes and food Is placed in the cage
for both animals the little fellow never
goes near his until the older monkey is
attended to and fed. 1t peels the
largest and best boiled onions and places
them in the reach Of the old monkey.
When milk is served, the little foster
child guides the blind parent to the dish
and waits until she finishes her portion
before approaching its own plate. 1t is
one OF the most wonderful examples Of
animal gratitude l have ever seen-par-
ticularly because the two monkeys are Of
such different breeds"

They are dun color. and at throat OF each
is a vivid bleeding heart, as strongly
marked and highly colored as il painted
there in blood itself.
Let us move a little more rapidly.
There Is yet much to see" urges the tire
less guide.
Here Is the Bactrian camel, born at
the Zoo last May. He was brought up
on a bottle, and, as Mr.. Blackburn is
afraid of cows milk, condensed milk was
substituted. This being very sweet. Mr..
Blackburn decided to substitute evapo-
rated milk. but young Mr.. Camel would
have none Of it, and would have slowly
died OF malnutrition but for the fact
that a small quantity Of sugar was add
ed to each bottle feeding.
The camel is given somewhat less
quantity of liquid nourishment than the
baby hippopotamus, also year old,
which each day manages to absorb ten
quarts OF water into which have been
mixed two quarts of evaporated milk.
Both animals are now being weaned and
are extremely peevish."

than the surface oysters. Practically all
the oysters handled In Washington dur
ing warm weather are shallow-water oys-
tiers. being tonged stock. They have very
thick shells These oysters are latest in
the months Of September and October
"a rough and ready test as to the con-
dition Of crabs on the market is to feel
under the large claws with the finger
II the claws feel sticky it is pretty sure
that the best policy is to buy other crabs.
Another test is to bend the main joints
of the crab. If quite fresh the joints are
stiff. A faded appearance of the crab,
with a discoloration of the apron or
under side is a clear index OF unfresh-
ness, but no test in this case is equal
to the nose applied near the apron cavity.
No description is needed to make even
a tyro realize that the crab is unfit for
food. In passing l will say that when a
crab is light in weight, according TO its
size, it will be found to contain but little
meat aside from the claws. The best bar
gains in crabs are those that are heavy
for their size.
aft is not hard to tell a duck that has
gotten past the proper stage for sale. In
the case of fresh ducks the legs and feet
are plant and soft, the eyes bright and
prominent, and the flesh fairly firm and
ducks are stiff and dry, they have sunken
and DULL eyes, f1abby flesh. discolored
necks and a greenish tnge over the alb
domen.
Fowls, when fresh, show prominent
and bright eyes. limp, moist and pliable
feet The wings and legs appear stiff;
the flesh should be neither fabby nor
stiff, but should give evenly and gently
when pressed by the finger. The skin
should be clean and white; dark color
may indicate improper bleeding.
when decomposition starts. an odor is
noticeable; the flesh becomes dark and
greenish. AS decomposition advances, the
flesh will become iabby. loose and easily
detached, while the crop and abdomen
will be greenish. The feet will be found
to be hard. stiff and dry, the eyes sunken
and dull. Broken wings and legs show
black discoloration. In muggy. hot
weather a blush green tinge and an I'M
pleasant odor may be noticed on the
neck, crop and abdomen, which, 1t is un-
necessary to state, injure the quality at

What are some OF the Indications OF
freshnessr' was asked.
THE appearance Of the eyes of the fish
gives q clear indication Of freshness, but
as a convincing proof OF unsoundness 1t
should not be relied upon without other
tests. II fresh the eye win be prominent
and full. while the pupil viii be DARK
This condition does not remain long, how
ever. for soon after being caught the eye
becomes gray and shrunken. though in
all probability the fish still is fit for
food. The collapsed condition of the eye

one OF the first tests.

"As IL well known, fish in their natural
state have red gills: but the particular
tint OF red is not the same in all species.
For instance. in the whiting the red color
Of the gilis is not nearly so dark as in
the shad. 1t is important to note that
fish caught In a gill net, especially those

ton, the fish generally is getting beyond

present TO aid in turning the prospective

1T is well to remember that decomposi-
tion sets in much more rapidly In bruised
or damaged fish, this being one reason
why fish caught in a gill net do not keep
so long as fish caught in trap nets or haul
seines.
