A USE FOR POTATO BUGS
(New York Evening Mail.)

Three Rivers, Mich.-In the molten days of midsummer, when angleworms are scarce and the perch and bluegDl may be ensnared if the proper bait IS used, Eldon Ulrich, 10 years old, scores his financial successes And, incident ally, he contributes good tip to all fishermen.
 Young JJ1rich conceived the idea that the soft-shelled potato bug would make an excellent lure for fish, par ticularly when good angleworms were hard to obtain. He picked a canfdl of the bugs and experimented. The result was a handsome string. And from the day of his experiment his success began, The neighbors and truck gardeners welcomed him when he appeared to gather a supply, and the business and professional men, unable to solve the bait questoin. were ready customers. At fifty cents for a good-sized supply of the bugs Ul- rich has already accumulated a good bank account. His aim is to make enough to get university education.
 He digs angleworms in the low, marshy places for customers who will not accept his proved theory regarding the bugs, but his trade in than com modity grows less every day as the reports of his bug users are received. His idea for next year is to cultivate a patch of potatoes primarily for the bug crop

RoosEvELTs GRAVE A SHRINE
CNew York Times.)


 Probably in no country in the world are people less given than in this one to visiting the graves of the distin- guished dead. No more nor sooner here than elsewhere, probably, are the great and good forgotten after their lives are ended. but Americans tend to look forward rather than back ward, and history is not their favorite study
 It is true that to the tomb of Wash ington there is a fairly continuous stream of reverent and interested sightseers, but the stream is a thin one, and in no small part it consists of for eign tourists. The resting places of Lincoln and Grant are objects of like, though much less. visitation, and there the list of American graves that are objects of more than family devotion almost ends.
 Almost, but not quite. There is one most notable exception to the national rule--a most notable break in the na- tional custom. To the grave of Theo- dore Roosevelt mourners go daily by the hundreds, and on every pleasant Sunday literally by the thousands. The place where he lies is not easily or cheaply accessible to these pilgrims, and as yet nothing there except the heaped- up earth and the simplest of monu- ments attracts the sorrowing throng.

CATTLE USE FRONT DOOR

George F. Weeks n the Mexican
 Review)
 Passing by some residences in the town of Topia (state of Durango, Mex ico) one morning I was very much calmly out of the door of a combined sitting and bedroom, and a further observation found that this was a common custom where the town was closely built up In the morning the cows pass out through the front room on their way to pasture and in the evening a procession of the animals comes leisurely down the street from the hills, and each turns in at it's own door, whether it be store, a parlor, a sitting room or what not
 This perhaps can be matched by my own experience in another part of the country. A friend and myself were sitting at breakfast in a dining room, when we were more or less surprised to see mozo open the back door, come in leading team of mules, which necessitated our moving our chairs to let them pass, and then went out an- other door into the street.
 On another occasion I went to a very decent appearing restaurant in a good sized town to get some dinner. sat down at a table in the middle of the room, which had cloth that al- most reached to the ground all around it. While eating I stretched my legs out under the table and in so doing encountered some semi-solid sub stance. Thinking it might be a dog, I again stretched my feet and touched the object, intending if it were an ami nal to drive it away. But it did not move, whereupon I lifted the cloth and bent down to see what it was. It was only a big fat hog-no more, no

 One can sit up there aloft and dream lot of things, but it was better to come down to earth and find out wha> the people who live here are going to do about making these dreams come true. So the pilot was signalled, it is impossible to converse in the roar of the engine and the whiZz of the propeller backwash.
 Down Again.
 The machine was just about over the state prison when the signal to des- eend was given. and down we went. Pilot Varnum turned Ter nose down toward the landing field and the place rose up to meet us at an astonishing speed. It was like your automobile was coasting down the roof of your house. In a little less than no time at all the plane was getting close to the ground, and he pulled her nose up little, scooted over the little trees at the edge of the field-and there we were.
