MUSHROOMS
Urged upon the German People
as Substitute for Meat
on Fast Days.

HAMBURG. July 3.-As an aux
Hilary food supply. of which little adj
vantage is taken, mushrooms are be-
ing urged upon German epicures. and
especially upon Catholics as substi-
tuted for meat on fast days.
DR.. Won Angemann, a Dresden
physician, estimates that there are
over 200 kinds of mushrooms In Ger
many. At least one quarter of these
are not only edible but nourtshing
and tasty. while only seven can be
classed as poisonous toadstools.
The annual crop. If 1t all were har-
vested, would run into the millions
of marks in value. he. believes, and
would supply hundreds of tons of
food. Already the inhabitants of
villages In the vicinity of forests have
learned to supply themselves with .
valuable food that costs nothing but
the gathering.

Will Long
In Hiding
Not Filed until Twenty Years
after the Death of Its
Testator.

BALTIMORE, Nd. July 3.-Un-
discovered for nearly twenty years
after his death, the will of Johann
nfchaet muller has been onered
for probate by his son. John 6. A.
Muller. The testator died March IS.
1896. having made his will on May
81. 1889.
The paper. yellow and musty with
age. left all Mr.. Mul1er's property to
his wife, Elizabeth Barbara Muller.
She died April 80. 1915. and her son
was appointed administrator of her
estate. He had known of the exist
ence of the will for several months
prior to his mothers death. but since
all the property had been enjoyed
by Mrs. Muller as her husband had
desired, it was not thought necessary
to probate the will at that time.
The SON says the property will now
be divided between his two brothers
and himself, since his mother died
intestate. The exact value of the
estate has not been determined, but
1t is made up almost entirely of par
GELS of real estate.

We respectfully call your at
tention to this section and urge
that if bridge surveys are nee

building new bridges, that you
let us know at once, so that
these matters may be taken up
