~ GEORGE T.. BUGJEY.

The bold ana democratic pickere. is
awaiting the anglers pleasure.
The pickerel season In New York
State is omen until March /. with the
exception OF Lake George. where the
season closes on December 81.
In New Jersey the pickcrcl season
closes on the 3oth Of November with an
additional twenty days from January /.
All pickerel taken in Jersey waters
must he at least twelve inches In
length.
II Is also we'll 20 remember that n
fishing license Is required which costs
the Nonresident angler S:lj.
Long Island aud Upstate streams.
Where can ! got good pickerol near
by" IS the regular question, SO for the
benefit of those anglers who stiIl de-
sire to get a few days more fishing
before they put away the outfit for an
other season the following places are
given. Boar In mind. however. that the
writer does not guarantee hat the fish
crman will come hone with a fun crcel.
First let US take Long Island. Th'
following streams are controlled ny the
Brooklyn Bureau Of Water supply. tn
whom one should first apply for n per-
nit before fishing. Address j, i. lang

While there are so'nc p!ckerel In the

To the mind ~ the writer probably
the best place near New York for pick

either the New York Central or the
Boston 4 Westchcster railroad iron
the Harlem River station at l2stl

better of the two.

GERM OF EPILEPSY

ST. JOSEPH, Mo.--The discovery
of germ which, he asserted caused

Charles A. L Reed OF Cincinnati, in
an address before the Medical Society
of the Missouri Valley The germ
was called the bacillus epilepticus and
the speaker asserted that, like the
germ of lockjaw, it probably exists
in the soil and enters the body
through the stomach and intestines,
where it continued to i've
DR.. Reed asserted that clogging Of
the alimentary canal, always present
in, epileptic cases. forced the germ
from the intestSnes into the blood.

high-pitched voices and .patronizing
