You always have to go away

You always have to go away
from home to hear the news.
Which is the reason that
thirsty Washingtonisns who
didn't have the heart to look at
goat In book beer season, received
q jolt this week.
In paper printed in Pitts
burgh, the Gazette-Times, they
learned that the fine foaming am
ber fluid was being brewed not
only right in the District, but
right in the drawing rooms OF
the Four Hundred. with which
every ribbon counter clerk IL
supposed to be familiar through
the Sunday society pages.
Brewing parties are the latest
anti-gloom fad in Washington,
according to the Pittsburgh pa
per. The parties are held at IL
o'clock in the morning, are strict.
ly formal and held in the homes
OF the best. The ladies don long
aprons and the ingredients or
near - no, sir, real - beer. are
brought into the drawing room.
The chief ingredient is a package
of hops on which is printed in
warning letters Of black:
"Don't Use Yeast"
Don't put a cake of yeast in
the mixture. for 1t will make 6
per cent beer"
AT party recently the hostess
had forgotten nothing hut the six
gallon demijohns in which the
xya ha nnnTad Thu
oversight was speedily remedied
by telephone message to a store.
but when the boy brought the
demiJohns they were minus the
glass shoppers which she had or
dered.
"Where are the glass stop
pers?" she demanded.
you don't need none" replied
the boy. Put some cardboard
around the necks. You want to
give the stuff the air" .

seem to know all about it,"
Guess I orter," the boy came
back. 1--WE sold 5000 of these

Want Hops, Not Seeds.
The members of both houses OF
Congress, according to the Ga
Zette- Times, are being besieged
with letters from the folks back
home to intercede with the Agri-
cultural Department for pack
ages of malt and hops instead OF
the old-time bags of seeds and
sacks of bug-destroying stuff.
Humble citizens in private life
are taking their tips from the
poor but honest farmer.
Which may account in n meas
ure for the increased appropria-
tion demanded for the Depart
