we went to see DIR. q. Hart
Merriam. And when we had
done that, we knew.
DR.. Merriam, we all knew, is a
distinguished scientist. He was
formerly connected with the bu-
reau of biological survey, depart
ment of agriculture, but is now
with the Carnegie foundation and
the National museum.
As to Merriam
He has been out here and made
the circuit of the mountain. He
announces himself as distinctly in
favor of Indian names, knows a
lot of Indian lore and is said to
have one of the finest of private
collections of Indian baskets and
curios in the country.
/ had two interviews with him,
one in company with DR.. Dyer be-
fore the hearing and the other
alone afterwards. and the impress
sion | gained of him at the first
was accumulated at the second and
was altogether unfortunate.
Sitting here writing, have tried
to imagine DR.. Merriam talking
dispassionately upon some subject
and carrying himself with dignity
and I cannot do so.
He was not at his office when
we called and we were compelled
to speak first with him over the
phone, announcing ourselves and
our business.
just Plain Mad
He said he would be down in 15
minutes and he was. A little man
with very nervous step and man
ner, he came in wearing on his
face-we had told him whence we
came and why-a look like that OF

DR.. Merriam lost no time In

the appeal for the change OF

Secretary, Justice to the Noun
tain Committee.
The times were out Of joint.
That was the first great impedi-
ment In the way of just and clear
headed consideration of the noun
tain name question.
Washington, and especially Of
fetal Washington, was keyed to
the great enterprise of war. Re-
striction and suspicion was al
ready coupled with high-pressure
activity, so that to gain an audi
ence with any of the busy men Of
the capital one must first halt at
his gate. explain ones business to
Ia guard and get q pass.
| Also it seemed that the depart
ments with which we had most to
do were nearly all in the act of
moving to new quarters adding
confusion to the rest of 1t.
This was the case with the coast
and geodetic survey, where An
drew Braid, president of the board.
Is inspector of magnetic work and
chief of the division of terrestrial
magnetism.
Such was the confusion there
when | first called that was
compelled to hold what conference
l could with the president of the
board standing near the door with
workmen laden with books and
boxes moving about the Railways.
Learned, Dignified

When | preached the business l

slant impotence and anger.
l became accustomed to this sort
of thing at the hands of these old

puzzle me. Why should the con-
sideration of petition OF the

sentiment against the petitioners.

what redress landlord has

his rent. l have been told
that IL you get the sheriff to

landlord tried to get rid of
undesirable tenants, but the
tenant always seems to come
out on top in any of the
court proceedings which re-

of whereby property owner

AN OLD MANS STOMACH.

AS we grow older and less active,
less and less food is required to meet
the demands of our bodies. If too much
is habitually taken, the stomach will
rebel. When a man reaches the ad-
vanced age Of IS or 80, you will find
that he is light eater. Be as care
full as you will, however you will &C.
casionally eat more than you should
and will feel the need of Chamber
