WANTED TO SEE THAT PIG
for the Thirsty Fasteners of
Century Ago.

Tb" present prohibition law Is much
more stringent than was the dry law
of Massachusetts of 100 years ago.
when the Striped Pig" gained its
fame. At that time the law read that
liquor could not be secured, save in
l5-ganon lots. That gave the 'pig"
Its chance.
An enterprising resident attended
the military muster on the Readville
fair grounds, and established a side
show. A banner before the tent
Haunted the likeness of red and black
pig, which. sign said. could be seen
for four pence. Many men went In
to see the strange animal, and returned
many times. AS the law did not pro-
hibit the exhibitor from giving away
liquor he gave each patron generous
glass of the forbidden drink from a
large stock he had laid in. The Striped
Pig" became famous over night. Songs
were written about the animal, bev-
erage was named after it, and a bur-
lesque play in New York adopted the
absurd title.

Praises Japanese Music.

The song which Japanese workmen
sing when raising the roof tree of q
new building ranks with the purest
music In the world, according to Henry
Eichheim, Boston composer, who is
spending year in Japan studying
oriental music says the New York
Evening Post. He said in Tokyo: 1.-THE
orientals have evolved by the process
of elimination a perfect philosophy, a
perfect art and perfect music. If we
could think as orientals think we
would realize the absolute simplicity
and perfection of their art life" AL
he goes about Japan he takes notes
on the primitive music of laborers and
on the sound of temple bells, with their
beautiful overtones, with the view of
making them themes for his compost
tons.

View on perWentwater.

, Returning from that town, the other
| side of Bassenthwaite Water may be
taken, and the rest Of the way back
to Grasmere Is identical with the out
ward run. The distance, including
the circuit Of Derwentwater, is about
seventy-six miles.
But Derwentwater Is worth a more
leisured trip, for its own sake. The
trip from Grasmere to Keswick and
the circuit of Derwentwater and back
is thirty-fve miles. The advantages
are with the tourist proceeding to
Keswick and there turning left and
past the church, following the eastern
side Of the lake to Lodore, where the
''Falls Of Lodore." sung by Southey,
will be found. Beyond we come to

narrow pass called the claws of Bor-

to follow the western lakeside. In

among them is that within five miles

but Rydal Water, and the town OF Am

and most popular of the lakes beyond.
All are within an easy walk for the
tourist staying at Grasmere. who will
indulge in pleasant footpath rambles
for a change.
The car Is for farther afield. For
example, the run to Penrith, along
Ullswater. The out and home run is
fifty-six miles. The best way from
Grasmere is to take the Windermere
road, as far as Waterhead; thence
turning to the left and up to Trout
beck. The nearer route, up from Am
bleside to Kirkstone Pass, is an ex-
ceedingly steep climb, but it can be
taken on the return.
Ou the way TO UllSWater the gloomy
little mountain town of Brothers Wa
ter is passed, and then comes the de-
scent to pleasant, sunny Patterdale.
Here the seven miles long lake Of
Ullswater, the second longest Of the
lakes, begins, skirted all the way by
delightful road, with the waterfall OF
Aira Force midway, spouting from its
woody glen. Ullswater ends at Pooley
Bridge, whence it is seven and half
miles into the quaint old market town
of Penrith, passing Yanwath Hall, now
a farm house, but a good surviving
specimen of the fifteenth century for
titled border residence; and thence
over the ancient lamont Bridge, built

FACTS AND FIGURES OF WAR
immensely Of Supplies Needed in Mod

Douglas Halg.

These are some of the amazing facts
In Sir Douglas Haig's final dispatch:
General headquarters received 1900
kilograms In one day, and 3,400 let
tiers by dispatch-rlders. One army
headquarters had 10000 kilograms in
a day, and the daily kilograms on the
lines of communication were $4,000.
There were 1900 miles of telegraphs
and telephones, and 3,689 miles of rail-

weekly.
In six weeks 100000 rations were
supplied, by our armies in France, to
100000 civilians in the relieved areas.
Two hundred tons dead weight of

The total daily ration strength of
our armies was 100000. An addi-
ton of one ounce to each mans ra-
lions represented an extra rs tons.
Over 100000 horses and mules and

The practice of doing out money to

There must be some queer twist to
English rules that boxers on this side

Corri also gave Wilde a decision
over Pal Moore, although England's
sensational little man was practically
exhausted and was bleeding freely
from the punishment bestowed on
him by the American. He said Moore
had fouled and thus lost the decision.
He should have disqualified the
