an A. B. and taking a law course
there and receiving his law degree
from Cincinnati law school in 1894
He was admitted to the bar the
same year. He joined a precinct
Republican club, and marched in
torchlight parades. One of his
fayorite stories was that in one of
them he complained TO graybeard
marching-mate that he couldn't
even hear the band. i've been
marching in these parades for 20
years, and I never have heard the
band, young feller." was the reply.

bill, again in support of veterans
legislation.
He was genial and affable in
private contacts. but dignified in
the speakers chair
Longworth was known as one of
the best dressed men in public

Mushroom Hunting Danger

NNE Of the really hazardous activities Of the
- tnexpert is the visit to the fields and pas
lures to "pick basket Of mushrooms" Many
a well-intentioned, If uniformed, amateur has
brought death to whole families with the crop
Of the fungi In which poisonous varieties have
been inadvertently placed.
To be absolutely certain that q wild mush-
room is edible the picker must have . real
knowledge Of the types which may be eaten
with safety. In order that there may be a.
little mistake as possible about It, the Depart
ment OF Agriculture has issued bulletin on
the subject giving accurate information ON how
the various types may be identified.
There are many erroneous beliefs which have
led to the death Of many who thought they had
carefully guarded against any poisoning.
There Is for instance. the belief held by many
that mushroom which peels Is safe to use. Az
q matter Of fact, some of the deadliest may be
peeled. Another belief Is that silver coin, II
boiled with poisonous mushrooms, win tarnish.
A third Is that boiling or soaking the mushroom
in salt water win counterfeit any poison which
might be present.
Just as the incautious have met death
through lack OF information. so have the timid
been deprived Of many q delicious meal for the
same reason. The departments new bulletin
win 60 far toward aiding each class.
