Hermit's Advice.

Are you baldheaded, why SO? There's
no reason for 1t. Fasting will make
your hair grow. This is according to
hermit who was found living in Van
Cortlandt park. New York. He told
the court that he had been fasting for
scientific purposes. Before his fast,
which had lasted So days, he said his
belfry was as bald as a billiard ball.
Now look at it," and he pointed to
the top of his head, which was COW
cred with wilderness of hair that
would have made him eligible to any
all-American football team. According
to the hermit, IL the baldheaded man
follows his instructions the famous
first row at a musical comedy will no
more consist Of nothing but nude
domes. These are the directions: Live
in the open air; drink about two
quarts of water a day; do not eat any
food. Nix on the eats. II any bald
headed person does this, says the her.
NIT, in couple of months his think
ing apparatus will resemble that of q
Russian Cossack.

OBJECTED TO THE BOOSTERS
Philadelphia Man Unable to Appre-
ciate Chandeliers Greeting to
the Rosy Morn.

BOOSTERS that are described as hav-
ing "shrill and penetrating crows" and
hens that cackle increasingly are re-
sponsible for William Brounsworth
getting summons to court to answer
to a charge of maintaining a nuis-
ance, the Philadelphia North Ameri-
can says.
Complainant in the action. begun in
court No. 1, is Andrew Heldrich, 41S
Lindley avenue, who lives next door to
Brounsworth. He alleges that the noise
of the ROSTERS and chickens is de-
stroying the peace and quiet of his
home and making early morning sleep
impossible.
For some months past" the state
ment says, "the defendant has been
keeping in his yard number of loud
voiced Growing ROSTERS and large
number of hens, which have become
an intolerable nuisance, because the
ROSTERS have shrill, penetrating crows
and they crow during all hours of the
night and early morning.
The Growing of the ROSTERS and
the cackling Of the hens have affected
the nerves Of the complainant, his
wife and children, and their health is
threatened. The compliments wife
has suffered complete nervous break
down and is under the care of physi-
clan"
The court is asked to declare the
chickens a nuisance.

WANTS DAMAGES FOR BITES
Brings Suit In a Case That Es-
tablishes a Precedent.

Bitten by a man he elected from
the branch public library at the Gate
way, Jack Smith, employed at the
branch, demands damages from the
city under the workingman's COM
pensation act. Jerome Jackman of
the city legal department said Smiths
claim was the most unusual that had
come to his notice.
"A drunken man entered the IL
brary," said Mr.. Jackman. "Mr. Smith
started to usher him out The fellow
struggled and finally bit Mr.. Smiths
right hand, causing deep decorations
on the thumb and index finger. He
has had the wound dressed four times
by a physician and it seems slow to
heal"
Mr.. Jackman gave the opinion that
Smith probably is entitled to COM
pensation for loss of time and for
medical attention.-Minneapolis Jour

HydropIane a Freak.

The hydroplane Of the day Is q
freak In every sense Of the word. The
various types of underbody construc-
ton are designed to give the boats
lifting power, to lessen the draft un-
der speed, and, consequently. the dis
placement-in other and palmer
words, to lessen the amount, of water
that has to be pushed aside IN the
endeavor to make high speed. The
hydroplane Is the outcome of years of
study by the best naval architects and
marine engineers in freak-boat con-
struction. Thousands of dollars are
spent annually on these freaks, but
many are thrown on the junk pile and
the effort repeated. All of these boats
are overpowered, as one would con-
slider the needs Of an ordinary boat.
But extra power rs added to gain a
little extra speed. Thus one of the
Atlantic coast owners Is this year du-
plicating his power by adding Sec
ond motor to 45-miler with the hope
OF adding al, extra ten miles an hour
to the speed. This may be termed
freakishness, yet in the quest for the
60miler all sorts of freakish things
are being undertaken.

Test Birds Homino Capacity.

The homing capacity in terms has
been the subject of interesting expert
ments by Prof. ]. B. Watson and DR..
kos. Lashley at Bird Key, Dry Tor
tugas, under the auspices Of the Car
negie institution. Birds were caught
in their nesting places, tagged, marked
with paint on head and neck, and car
ried in large cages to a distance,
whereupon they we're liberated and
watch was kept for their return. 1t
was found that the noddy and sooty
tern can return from distances up to
1000 miles in the absence of all
landmarks, a. least so far as the term
landmark is understood at present"
A return from the open sea was found
to be effected as readily as from a
place on the coast. Birds returned
from Galveston. from Cape Hatteras,
from Havana, etc. In these cases.
however, a certain percentage did not
return. The report on these expert
ments discussed various proposed ex.
plantations Of the homing capacity in
birds, without reaching any conclu-
sion.-Scientific American.

Marketing Farm Products.

United States Senator Fletcher has
called a meeting of the national mar
keting committee to devise means to
aid the farmer in marketing his prod
ucts, and also to enable the consumer
to distinguish between the high cost
Of food and the high cost of serv-
ice.
THE farmers of the country are pro-
ducing annually crops for which they
receive $4,000 100000, and for which
the consumer pays. $4,000, 0,000,"
said Representative w. 8. Goodwin OF
Arkansas, member of the committee.
The farmer gets 35 cents and the
middleman gets 65 cents for each dol
lar the consumer pays for the farm
er's crops. There is an enormous
amount Of waste, especially in perish
able products, because of the lack Of
some central directing intelligence"

Wiley and Assistant Surgeons Roome

operation demanding further ampu-

table to receive the ether he was
smiling and cheerily talked with the
nurses.

The attentions of the surgeons
stopped further speech. while the
ether was administered, and after
ward, when he had been wheeled from
the spotless surgery to the ward. he
began to talk again. He was at the
ball game.

only will the output Of the fish-cul-
tural operations of the bureau Of fish
cries during tie fiscal year ending
June 80 surpass previous records but
for the first timo in many years there
has been sufficient supply Of black
bass to meet all current demands for
both public and private waters. All
outstanding applications for black
bass will be filled. Some of these have
been held over for several years for
lack of sufficient supply Of the fish.
Among recent deliveries of this fish
have been 10000 to . large artificial
lake at Austin, Tex, formed by the
damming of the Colorado river, and at
the station whence the fish came q
largo supply is now on hand. It is the
policy of the bureau to distribute each
year an increasingly large proportion
of fish which have been retained at
the hatcheries until they reach the
lingering or yearling stages, which
means that the output, being more
mature, is better able to care for itself
and is not 80 subject to the depreda-

HAD TO CRITICIZE WRITING |
Old Lady Was Grateful for Being En-
abled TO Hear Sermon, but Truth
Was Truth.

"A killed regiment, while on the
march through q part of Scotland.
halted for q Sundays rest at one Of
the remote villages in the Highlands,
where some Of the Draw laddies were
billeted on the inhabitants.
One old lady had to find q lodging

they were going to the kirk in the

one of her guests, who happened to
be an accomplished shorthand writer,
promised to tell her all the minister
said in his sermon. though she had
her doubts as to how he would be
able to remember 1t all.
Sandy and Tam came back from
church, and the former read the ser
mon out from his notebook, to the
admiration and establishment of his
landlady, who had never heard Of
shorthand, and had no idea how any
one could write as fast as the minis
ter spoke.
When Sandy had finished, and the
good lady had expressed her thanks
for the privilege of hearing the SER
mon, she asked him to let her look
at the book he had been reading from.
She seemed much disappointed, how
ever, because she could make nothing
of 1t.

Of the mystic signs, she said to the
blushing warrior:
