Why February Is Short.

In the old days when the Ro
man rulers had nothing else K
worry about they did something
to the calendar, and February,
it seems, was a victim.
Originally, this perfectly good
month had 20 DAYS in lean years
and 20 days in other years.
February is from the Latin,
meaning to purify 1t was
the custom of the Romans to Gel.
citrate the festival Of publication
in February
julius Caesar named July in
his honor he saw DIT that there
were 81 days in it. Then along
came Augustus, and a month was
named for him, also. But Aug.
ust had only 30 days. So Aug
ust looked around and picked on
February, which had no one par.
tiularly to defend it. He Just
took a day off February, and
added it to his own pet month.
That's why February ordiuari-
" has but 2S days, and why Aug
ust has 81, in keeping with the
dignity Of its imperitous name
sake. Elk.

Plan Bus Line Merger.

Negotiations looking to the merger
of the bus lines in Southern Maryland
and ON the Eastern Shore are now nm
der way between officials OF the Tide
water Lines, Inc, and the Shore
Transit Company before the Public
Service Commission. Plans are being
worked out by which passenger and
freight motor service can Immediately
be inaugurated ON the Eastern Shore
of Maryland.
The Tidewater Lines operate in the
lower counties of Southern Maryland
to Washington. The Shore Transit
Company has made application for
permission TO cover route from Sal
isbury to Chesapeake City, and says
it has sufficient equipment to put SER
vice into operation within week.
The latter company will have the
Tidewater interests to visit the Eastern
Shore this week, and alter a careful
inspection will ask the Tidewater Lines
TO submit a proposition looking to the
consolidation OF the two projects.

CIR EDIT.


This year will bring unsettled times,
because Of readiusting; the merchant
princes need their dimes, and THEY'LL
be SLOW at trusting, They'll not give
efeditieft and right, as lately they We
been doing, ana trowns will greet the
slow pis4 wight who'd buy a plug OF
chewing And many men this year, /
guess, will need & slice OF credit, ior
readlustment brings distress-the
banking sharps have said 1t. Now he
who's Kept his stand-oif bright will
know the easy shedding, and merchant
princes will delight TO sell him books
or bedding. However stringent money
Is, the lamps for him are burning: to
see his good old honest phiz the mer-
chants all are yearning. And il he
asks to buy on time a grindstone or a
hammer, the dealers on his person
climb, with glad exultant ciamor.
There'll never be time so tight that
men Of reputation for having always
acted right Cant get accommodation.
A reputation as good pay is better far
than rubies, and men who do not think
that way must travel with the boobies.
The melancholy days are here, sus-
pended tick will daant them; and
bills they should have paid last year
will rise like ghosts and haunt them. -
Wait Mason, in Washington Star.
