ditlons had prevailed around the An

Company. and his service covers a
period OF seventeen years. there was
not a single tug boat in the harbor
during the freeze
Always in previous years when the
ice conditions prevailed in the bay
and river. Mr. Farncs said, there
would be in the harbor over night
from five to seven tugs, but this time
there has been none The watermen

COLDS AND FLU
Calotabs, the New Nausealess
Calomel Tablets, Cut Short
Colds and May Prevent Flu
By Keeping Liver Active

Physicians have learned from ex-
perience, during the epidemic of infu-
enza, that one of the most important
factors in the prevention of flu and
pneumoian is to keep the liver active
so that the digestive organs may be in
perfect working order and they sys-
tenn thereby enabled to throw off colds,
check sore Threats, and resist serious
complications For this purpose they
have found that the new, nausealess
calomel tablets called Calotabs, are far
more effective even than the old style
calomel, which was formerly the uni
versal favorite. as Calotabs do not
weaken the patient. nor interfere with
the appetite and digestion.
At the first sign of cold or sore
throat, doctors recommend one Calotab

GOOD YEAR FOR CUT
But $4,000 Of $4,000 Was
Spent On Improvements
SO NET SURPLUS IS s1sS.4o

The House of Correction had a
profit of nearly $4,000 for the past
year. but $4,000 was used in complet-
ing the water and sewerage disposal
plant, 50 900 used for installing a new
engine and generator and other uses
brought the cash surplus down to
$193.49 al the end of the year This
information Is contained in the third
annual report of the State Board of
Prison Control
Special attention is called to the
dissatisfaction OF the board with en-
ployment OF the prisoners ON State
road and quarry work AT irregular in
tervals and also TO the number of
escapes during employment on road
work The board recommends the
passage OF an act by the Legislature
imposing a heavy penalty on those
who are recaptured after escaping
while employed outside the institu-
ton.
In the fiscal year ended September
80, 1919 the Maryland Penitentiary
wiped ont a deficit OF S38.90591 and
ended the year with surplus of $21,-
07236 and is in such sound financial
condition that no appropriation for
the current year is needed for either
Improvement or maintenance
But the board asks for the continu-
aDce of the annual appropriation of
$4,000 for the House of Correction.
1t also asks that the State Lunacy
Commission be given $4,000 for the
purpose of removing the criminally
insane from the penitentiary and the
House of Correction and placing them
under proper care elsewhere, as the
board considers it impossible TO care
for them adequately in these institu-

expression, or one similar thereto

at the close of the first Vashon,

Quoted, or the standard of the tai

1t differs from an ordinary
"show" as one speaker suggested
in that the average show secures
talent measured from the eye

Chautauqua standard is for talent
measured from the eyebrows UP.
Every performer which appeared
upon the platform indicated at
once a clean body and a clean
mind. There was nothing ques-

There we met lS of our sons,

the evening the piano and violin
gave us a musical treat, including
vocal music, and then you should

music struck a waltz, followed by
