The suggestion bears an additional

made that Great Britain and Germany

indulging in for greater sea power
Germany's first response-informal, and
made largely through the press-is dis
couraging. Is the proposition loaded :!
Does Mr.. Churchill really mean what he
says? And IL he does will the British
nation support him? Mr.. Churchill in
Germany pays penalty for his quail
ties. He is bright man, an accom-
plished phrasemalxer, and regarded as a
skillful maneuverer. Some of his own
countrymen, and all Germans, consider
him sly"
Mr. Churchill, whose suggestion was
made on the stump. repeats it in parlia-
ment, and develops some strength for it
there and throughout the country.

German government and people signify a
willingness to at least formally consider

Suppose while all this is going on in
Europe, Mr.. Clark takes the floor in
Congress, and gives what may be called
an American twist to the subject urging
halt on our part in naval expenditures,
and citing the new attitude of Great
Britain and Germany as good reason why
the present is the right time for it.
The democrats in Congress have not
yet found an answer to the question
raised by the Baltimore platform: What

the present equipment is enough. Others
that it ought to be doubled. Still others

patronage has been distributed. great
deal remains in hand; and it is no rehec-

The Partridge.

Friends of the partridge will rejoice at
the measure of protection given this very
useful bird under the new game laws and
the regulations for the protection of GER
tain birds formulated by the Department
of Agriculture. The real friends of the
partridge are those who esteem him and
her for their useful appetite for crop ene-
mics, for the pleasant notes of their call
and the gentle habits of the birds, and
not those who think of the partridge in
connection with its white, fine-grained
and pleasant favored meat
In the news columns of The Star of a
recent date restaurant proprietor was
quoted as saying that quail on toast the
coming season probably will be a luxury
If the federal government insists upon a
strict enforcement of the game laws and
prohibits shipments of birds from prohib-
tied sections The federal government
should insist upon a strict enforcement of
laws framed for the protection of birds
even though quail on toast should become
luxury. 1t is fair to note that quail on
toast long ago became u luxury because
of the ruthless and often unsportsmanlike
slaughter of this useful bird. So, let it
become still more Of a luxury that the
birds may live. The partridge Is worth
more in the fields and woods than on the
table. es
Independent of the sentiment involved
and life would be very mean and sordid
thing If 1t were not for good sentiment
friend of man and an enemy of the enc
vas4s - to .
biological survey Of the Department Of
Agriculture and other students of the eco
nonic value of birds have proved over
and over again that the partridge is the
farmers ally. The craws of unnumbered
dead cartridges have furnished proof of
this.
Last spring and summer because of the
previous mild winter and the protection
given him the peculiar wordlike call of
the partridge could be heard throughout
the rural part of the District of Columbia
and could also be heard many times in
the well settled suburban area and on the
edges of the city. In Rock Creek Park,
where especial protection has been given
partridges, they have multiplied and pros
pered. With a reasonably open winter,
the prohibition against killing them in the
District of Columbia, the short partridge
shooting season in Maryland and Virginia,
county licenses for hunting and other re-
strictions cartridges will probably be
more numerous in the country around
Washington than they have been within
the memory of living men.
Partridges were very common in this
neighborhood before the removal of the
seat of government to the federal terri
tory, though the lands on which the Cap
ital was built and the territory of Column
bia laid out were well settled and had
been for a century, and also in spite of
the fact that the settlers were good hunt
ers and good eaters and were fond Of
cartridges. Francis Baily. an English
man who visited the site of Washington in
October. 1885, wrote that Game Is plenty
in these parts. and what perhaps may ap-
pear to be remarkable, l saw some boys
who were out a shooting actually kill
several brace of cartridges in what will
be one of the most public streets Of the
city,

mo Oil to Soil'' is a phrase used in
connection with the Howard Dustiess
buster that means much to every house
keeper. and especially to those who are
going to buy dustless busters.
Howard Dustless busters have no oil
in them; this is where their superiority
over all others is so strong; they are
treated with a peculiar chemical which
picks up every particle OF dust. and 1t
cannot be shaken or beaten out.
It Is an absolute impossibility to remove
the chemical from this duster; boiling
water. soap or the strongest chemicals
have no effect upon 1t. Polishes perfectly
wood, glass, furniture, leather and smooth
surfaces; silk waists, velvets or cloths of
any kind are greatly benefited by simply
rubbing their surface with this buster.
This buster holds a great deal of dust:
when the limit of its absorption power
has been reached clean it with hot water
and soap, and it will be as good as new.
