HOW TO CATCH A BEAU Dear Miss Libbey:
 Would you think it a frivolous qies- ton, though I ask in all serious ness? Will you tell me the rules. if there are any, for catching a beau All my girls friends have no trouble in attracting young men who fall in love with them, keep company short while and marry them. am now twenty-six and have begun to de spain. A word from you might set me on the right track. Will you write. that word 3
 ANxIoUs. There is no rule which could be safely followed regarding the catch-s ing of a mans fancy, save to be mod est and ladylike in the presence of the opposite sex, and restrain the de- sire to be speedily wooed and won. The must successful way to become popular with men is not to put your self in their way. Most men have the habit Of fleeing if they become con scious of being pursued by a deter mined woman intent on matrimony.

If he loves another girl better than he does you, as his actions seem to indicate, do not try to get him back You will soon get a good, true lover and forget this one and his fafthless- ness.

Summer Resorts.

Indications point to the season Of 1914,
being the most prosperous ever enjoyed
by the summer resorts along the line OF
the Western Maryland Railway Com
pany, according to Mr.. Charles F. Stew
art, General Passenger Agent of the
Company, who has just returned to Bal
timore from an extended trip to the var
lous Western Maryland points. Mr..
Stewart asserted that even at this early
date the resort people are planning for the
summer vacationists, and that the i'm
provements are being made here and
there in order to enable hotel men and
boarding house people to take care of all
who desire to go to the mountains of
Western Maryland to escape the sum-
mer'S heat.
THE summer resort business along
the Western Maryland Railroad, says
Mr. Stewart, is increasing every year,
and there is every indication that the APP
preaching summer season, will be the
most prosperous in the history of all
these places. The Blue Mountain House
owners are now planning extensive i'm
provements to their property, and these
plans will be finally shaped up in the
near future. The Improvements at Blue

THE Western Maryland's General
Passenger Agent also declared that the
tourist business in Florida is good. He
says that the Western Maryland Rail-
road has a number of passengers booked
for the railways company's first person
ally conducted tours to the South on
January 10Th, and that the prospects for
the tours on February End and 10th,
were exceedingly bright.
THE passenger business in general
is also good on our iine," added Mr.
Stewart. Our trains are well filled, and
are being operated on time.
In going over the road, | met num-
Der of commercial travelling men and
from the reports made, found that they
were getting substantial orders at points

Mr.. Stewart says that much interest is
being manifested in the appro ching
Gamers Convention, which is to be
held In Baltimore next month, and that
the Gamers in Maryland and other
States expected much good to result
from the gathering of men associated
with the canning industry. The Western
Maryland Railroad will operate extra
train movements on account of the con.
vention.
While out on the line, Mr.. Stewart
took occasion to visit Frederick, where
he saw great deal of building in prog
ress, among the new buildings nearing
completion being the new, large National
Guard Armory. New residential sec
tons have also been laid out, and the
plans for erecting handsome residences
on these lots have also been made Mr.
Stewart says that the hotel men at

Changes Law For Saloon Lii
cenBes

Delegate Eugene A. Wachter, Of the
IN the House of Delegates on Wednes
day afternoon, January 18th, a bill,
which if passed, will probably make the
fight over the issuing OF saloon licenses IN
Frederick City, practically thing of the
past. The bill makes it much easier for
an applicant to secure a saloon license
and changes materially the provisions as
they now exist. The bill requires that
an application for a saloon license be
signed by nine male persons, who are re.
putable free holders and bona fide resi-
dents in the election precinct in which
the saloon is to be conducted.
At present the law is rather strict re-
quiring nine signers out OF the seventeen
nearest free holders. and this require
ment has made it very difficult for some
of the saloon keepers to secure licenses
The bill, IS drafted. while it requires
male Signers and excludes thereby the
women signers, gives much more oppor-
tunity for a man TO get the required
number Of signers, since he can GO 10
any place in the election precinct for his
signers. There are eight precincts in
Frederick
The bill just introduced requires that a
signer give his address, place of bust
ness, and to tell how long he has known
the applicant, and whether he considers
the applicant a suitable man to run a
saloon. The signer must be rs years of
age.
The bill was referred to the Temper
ance Committee of the House.
1t is expected that fight will be waged
over this measure The Anti Saloon
League OF Frederick county, which has
been very active in recent years and has
succeeded in having strict laws enacted
governing saloons, will probably lead the
fight against this measure. One of the
leaders of the organization said that he
had not known anything about such
bill, but he was sure that the League
would get busy to prevent the passage Of
such measure. The Anti-Saloon mem
bers feel that they will have the support
of Senator Matthias in the Senate to pre-
vent the passage of the bill through the
Senate.
Liquor licenses are issued every spring,
and If the proposed bill is successfully
gotten through the Legislature, it will
mean victory for the liquor interests
and there will be little or no difficulty to
get the licenses issued by the court this
year. The Anti-Saloon League, in the
event OF the passage Of the bill, will, Of
course, have the right to fight any APP
pllcant who they feel is not fit person
to conduct such an establishment.

Income Tax Point Cleared.

1t IS not necessary for any person with
a net income OF less than s.. 500 from
March L, 1913, to December 81. 1913, to
make return TO the Internal Revenue
Department. This is the statement made
by Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue
Collector William Logan, of this district.
and sets at rest the doubt which existed
on this point.
Blanks have been sent to many per-
sons IN Frederick county, a number OF
whose incomes do not reach 81. 500 for
ten months and these are not required to
make return. The names were secured
from the tax books and nearly all persons
owning property were sent blanks, with
the aim that no one included in the in.
come tax law be missed.

he asked the Frederick Board of Trade

highest terms of the invention of DR..
Kharas, but states that because Of purely

porary, the financial arrangements nee.
essary to secure the plant could not be
made. DIR. Kharas left for Morgan
