TWO OCCUPATIONS FOR MAN
On. to Work With and the Other for
hi Diversion, la Opinion of
Philosopher.
A philosopher said every man should
have two occupations, one to work
wlthj the other to play with, writes
uirard' in the Philadelphia Inquirer,
i-r. jolin a. Jonsuu's other occiiim
tlon is fishing. When this eminent snr.
geon was slushing around the other
day with a new trout rod it remlndnii
J. Stodgell Stokes of a story to prove

nooKed by the most expensive tackle
Stokes and other Haverford colle
gians thought It would be nice when
tne late President Sharnless whs about-
to retire to give him the finest bass
rod, reel and line that could be bought.
ne old scholar was duly grateful and
accompanied by Mr. Stokes elected to
christen his gift in a Jersey water
wnere oass are almost as plentiful as
the mosquitoes on shore.
A barefoot native lad watching
open-eyed at the unfolding of the
beautiful rod, whispered to Mr.
fetokes:
"The butcher won't sell much meat
tomorrow.
Nothing, however, that Dr. Sharp-
tess could do would coax a fish to take
the hook. Then the lad. waltincr In
silence for an hour, gravely cut a
switch from a tree, rigged up a line,
took a rusty hook from his pocket,
dug an angleworm and without com

You have already guessed the
sequel. The boy soon had a string of
bass, while the scholar and his friend
a man of high business qualities
caught not one.
HAVE HIGH. NUTRITIVE VALUE
According to Bureau of Fisheries, Sea
Mussels Are Not Appreciated as
They Should Be.
Officials of the bureau of fisheries
declare that sea-mussels are, in a high
degree, both palatable and nutritious,
The bureau goes farther and says that
In view of the abundance of the mus
sels and the ease with which they can
be obtained, the neglect of them for
table use is wasteful. It points out
that sea-mussels ari found along the
coasts of nearly all the northern half
of the northern hemisphere, and that
there are beds on th New England
coast so extensive that the mussels
could be collected daily by the ton.
It adds that many persons consider
the flavor of the mussel superior to
that of the oyster; that, moreover,
mussels are In season when the oys-
ter is out of season, and that they
are more easily cultivated than the
oyster. It admits that fresh mussels
are most difficult to market, for they
spoil if kept more than 24 hours, but
asserts that If canned or pickieo mey
retain their natural "'"
,uieuu recommends that such
cheap and nutritious food be placed
on the market.
Studies Ancient Graves.
Prof. J. J. Horner, archeuloglst of
the University of Oregon, who has
visited what Is believed to be the
burial ground of an ancient tribe of
mound builders, near Albany, Ore., has
pronounced the place one of the won
ders of primitive Oregon. He said the
finds made by Claude Peacock, a farm
er, represented a higher type of civ
lllzation than previous discoveries In
that section.
Professor Horner said the carvings
on mortars, the stono pipe and other
objects were examples of the highest
type of stone workings found In graves
of mound builders. He said the dis
coveries indicated that these mound
builders, who antedate the Indians,
had the same religion as the sun wor
shipers of Mexico.
Improved Water Wheel.
A floating water wheel lias been
patented by an Inventor in Prieska,
South Africa. This Invention Is a great
revelation, and promises to revolution
ize methods of raising water for Irri
gation purposes, generating electricity,
etc. A large model is undergoing its
trial in the Orange river, and it is ex
pected that Its final adjustments will
shortly be complete, when the wheel
will be given an exhaustive trial. The
invention Is so constructed that It can
rise or fall with the level of the
stream, delivering water through hose
pipes or through a revolving universal
rod structure. It can float In the wa
ter or rest on firm soil, according to
the depth of the stream, and automat
ically disposes of all obstacles drifting
against It.

Toward Firestone
The public has emphatically spoken. The popu
lar preference in all territories is unmistakably the
Firestone Gum-Dipped Cord.
A standard of service has been set by these fa
mous tires without parallel in the past. It has
brought a sales increase of 194 for the past six
months over the same period of a year ago the
greatest gain in all Firestone history.
The Firestone Gum-Dippeu Cord is the mighty
achievement which has enabled Firestone to break
the tremendous record of past Firestone success.
The tire buying public has been aroused to the
results in economical mileage of the Firestone
process of double gum-dipping. The buying swing
toward Firestone shows how it has advanced the
public's standard of tire value.
Ask owners about Firestone performance on thelr
cars. Note the big taxicab fleets Firestone-equipped.
Watch the new cars you see just from the fac
tories; Firestone Gum-Dipped Cords are seen every
where in fast increasing numbers.
Get the maximum extra mileage that only the
Firestone name assures you. Only by insisting on
this name can you be sure of getting the genuine
gum-dipped construction.

I was nine and he was ten. I was
deeply in love with him. When my
birthday arrived, a heavy package
also arrived, from him. 1 took off the
first wrapping and there was another
following and several more. Then
came a shoe box. I opened It, and
my heart was beating wltn excitement.
But, lo, and behold ! there lay a brick,
with "greetings" printed on it. This
was the beginning and also the end of
my first love affair. Exchange.
Machine Weighs, Counts Hay Bales.
After a day's work In baling hay,
the owner of a hay press need only
look at the recorder of a new auto
matic weighing and counting machine
which Popular Mechanics Magazine
describes and Illustrates, to know how
many bales his machine has turned
out and their weight. As the bales
come out of the press, they full upon
the device, weigh und count them
selves.

Tough Indeed.
It seems there was a movie mag
nate who took enough Interest In the
legitimate to lament the passing of
Frank Bacon. "It was hard luck for
hfm to have to croak Just when he
did," he remarked. "Here's this guy
Shakespeare making a big splash on
Brondway Just now, and they say Ba
con really wrote all his plays. Pretty
tough on Prank, I call it." Colliers.
It Must Have Been Terrible.
One morning when I returned to
school after an illness I was told to
go to the principal for an excuse. I
went to his office, taking my report
card. Entering the office, I walked
to the principal's desk.
He held out his hand and, suppos
ing he wished to shake hands, I put
my hand In his and shook It.
Imagine my embarrassment when
he said: "I did not mean to ehaka
hands. I wanted your report card."

you'll actually have to fight with him

Antlmer Coming Back.
The news that antimacassars are
coming in again will stir memories of
those once ubiquitous parlor chair em
bellishments. Antimacassars were
annoying wisps of lace or beribboned
fancy work of washable character an
nexed to the tops of the backs of
chairs to protect them from the oily
and perfumed locks of the Victorian
beaux.
And it Is because men are again
greasing their hair that antimacas
sars are coming back. In Victorian
times the favorite anointment for mas
culine curls was macassar oil, whence
the name "antimacassar."
Tourists Cause Forest Fires.
According to the annual report of
the forest service, United States De
partment of Agriculture, a large pnrt
of the danger to the national forests
from man-caused fires Is due to the
seasonal Influx of tourists, campers,
hunters and fishermen, and other vis
itors from the cities and from distant
parts of the country. A national cam
paign of public education on the sub
ject of forest fires Is demanded If the
task of protection of the vaht area of
thej national forests from Maine and
Florida and California and Washing
ton, is to be successfully performed.
