Center market dais' established a century nnd a quarter ngo, and It has occupied one site con- 1, tinuously. Within two years It wilii he replaced with a building to house the Department of Justice. j Notley Young gave the site to the city when his farm ran from Giesboro Point on tho Maryland bank of the Potomac to Pennsylvania avenue. In his will he directed that If it Should be used at any time for any other than market purposes the property should revert to his heirs.

Gives Taxi Driver $12 for Returning $38,500 Berlin.—aA American tourist be stowed a $12 tip on an honest Berlin taxi-driver who had restored $38,500 in cash which the American had left in the taxicab. The American nnd his wife arrived in Berlin by rnil nnd were drived* to their hotel. The drlv- r put Ids car away for tho night and n the morning found an open satchel . the rear seat, filled with United ■ i:11es currency in stneks of $1,000. lie returned the money and the urist, after ( counting it over, handed lie driver 50 marks. Milton Shrine London.—The kitchen of the historic >ld cottage at Chalfont St. Giles, not nr from London, where John Milton, !ie 'poet, lived In 10G5, at the time of io great plague, lias been restored a! Is. one of the favorite pllgrlm- ,es of American tourists. 'Milch took possession about ten years ngo. Finally the issue renched the attorney general of the United States, ftho held that under the right of emi nent domain the government could use the property for a public building just as readily as It could for a market. In accordance with this decision stall owners were notified a few weeks ago that in the course of two years they must vacate. The market has been a good investment for the government, which paid about a million dollars for the properly nnd has derived a revenue of more than $100,000 yearly from the rentals ever since. Show Place of City, Under the administration of the De partment of Agriculture, Center mar ket has been conducted in an efficient manner. Ko market hereafter estab lished can take its place In the minds and hearts of Washingtonians. In fact, they have regarded it ns one of the show places of the city nnd a center of local color as distinctive ns the old French market in New Orleans. It was always a home of democracy, for diplomats and statesmen, society matrons and persons of lowly life met there. Senator Cockrell, of Missouri, would walk down, basket on his arm, nnd return afoot to his home supplied with the choicest ihe market could af ford. Judge Wylie, living in Thomas circle, did the same, and was a famil iar sight ns he walked down Four teenth street every morning on his way with his basket. It is doubtful whether any market tlie world over ever offered n greater variety of things to eat. Chesapeake bay and its tributaries supply three- fourths of the people of the United States with crabs, oysters and fish of every variety. All are found in Cen ter market. Potomnc roe herring nrc found in no other market of the coun try. Farmer Uses Submarine. More colorful even than the buyers ate the producers who bring in their truck, fish, fowl nnd meats from adja cent states. Recently a Virginia farm er bought a submarine, at a sale of condemned government property, but decided to stay above the water and take no risks beneath the surface. Persons on the municipal wharf were astounded to see him appear in the river one day aboard his formidable war craft. Hatches were opened cau tiously, but the hold was tilled with juicy melons nnd fresh vegetables from his farm, instead of torpedoes. Presence of the war-painted subma rine in a place so unusual drew a crowd and the farmer saw Ills oppor tunity. He mounted the wharf, and standing on a box began to ask bids for “submarine melons,” “submarine cabbages,” “submarine this” and “sub marine that.” lie soon had sold his entire stock, lie announced with a chuckle ns he started home that lie intended to make regular trips to tho city nnd expressed the hope Hint some of the things he would bring With him would reach the Center market. 200 Acres belonging to Mr. A.

A.uto Clubs of Europe Issue New Road Maps Washington. — The first complete automobile touring maps of Europe have been issued at Paris’ by the In ternational Association of Recognized Automobile clubs, U.

It is planned to keep these maps up to date by annual revision. Burwnsh, England.—Rudyard Kip ling eludes publicity but he can’t elude Air. Lavender, Perhaps it is because Mr. Lavender Is eighty-one years old and deaf nnd not at ail fond of con versation that Air. Kipling doesn't try to. For Air. Lavender is the poet’s new confidant and “pal,” nnd folks around here say he “hears” all the great man’s secrets. Air. Lavender—William Is his first name—is by profession a road men der. lie has been mending roads around this district for a very long time, and somehow tlie job never seems to get finished. Air. Kipling lives about a mile down Hie road and takes a stroll in Air. Lavender’s direction every morning. There Is a convenient stile near Air. Lavender’s bit of road, upon which Air. Kipling perches nnd quietly watches his old friend work until the “cricks” In Air. Lavender's back call a halt. Then Air. Kipling opens the conversation in a loud voice. Let Air. Lavender, unabashed by the society of the great, tell the rest of the story: Knows Mrs. Kipling Twenty Years. “Oh yes, I have known Mr. Kipling r.nd Caroline for twenty years now,” he drawls casually. “Caroline,” by the way, is the only name the qld mau will use for Airs. Kipling. f “They usually come along just when I'm in tho middle of my work. Then they sit on the stile and Air. Kipling hollers, ‘Come and sit down along of me, Lavender.’ “Often I do and often I dqp’t, but when I do I Just says ‘yes’ nnd ’no’ nnd ‘That’s right.’ For, between our selves, for the last five years I have hardly heard a word he has said. We talks a lot about catile, or leastways I think we do, and he says all he’s got to say and I listens. Then I gets up nnd says, ‘Well, sir, I’ve got to go on with me work,’ and Mr. Kipling tries to get me back on th'6' StH’e, but I says, ‘No, sir, no. Work’s work, and I’ve got no time for chattering.’ “But he’s a nice gentleman with ff lot of education nnd I only wish f could bear what he is saying.” Asked in thunderous tones whether lie was not flattered at the attention’ of the famous poet, he replied, shout ing, “I don’t know that I exactly enjoy it, but I don’t inlnd it.” Lavender Has Rival. Air. Lavender lias a fellow rond mender, one Mr. Stonestreet, to whom Air. Kipling also talks. But Air. Stone- street lias quick ears nndf so' he isn’t told any secrets. The conversation is usually about local topics nnd It I often terminates in n discussion eon- I corning tlie notion of the local district council. In ordering ft small trench to he cut on the bordef of Atr. Kipling’s land to carry 6IY the water from tlie roadway. The poet feels very strong ly about thisf, according to Lavender & Co., ns the water thereby floods his land. "Sobietmies he says to me,” supple ments Stonestreet,' not to he outdone by Air. Lavender, “Why can’t you leave my land alone?” But when he Is not talking about his land lie goes on for hours about Sussex, nnd 9,attic nnd crops’ He seems to know a lot about cattle, too, and he’s a regular history book about Sussex. “But if lie were to see an Ameri can,” concluded Air. Stonestreet, with a warning look, “he would run a mile. He only talks to Air. Lavender attd me.” $6,400,000,000 in Cash Now Circulating in U. S.

Pethernm of the Tile Na tional forest lias been accused of spreading a Rudyard Kipling nature story among his friends. Despite reiteration that his story of a mother chipmunk’s gratitude is true, rethoram lias met skepticism wherever his tale hns been told. The supervisor found a baby chip munk, abandoned nnd starving, on one of his Jaunts through the forest. He brought It back to camp and protect ed it against the cold by wrapping it in an old woolen sock with a large hole in tlie toe. A week of fensting on honey made the baby chipmunk fnt nnd lively. It slept warmly each night in the old sock, its nose protruding from the Hole in the toe. The mother chipmunk found her baby two weeks after Pethernm had brought it to' his quarters, and the two departed for the forests together. Pethernm watched them go rather sadly. lie picked np the old sock that had been the chipmunk’s home to throw it away nnd found that the hole 1ft the toe had been crudely darned with pine needles and moss. The patcli was constructed bird’s nest fashion and wouldn’t have been ser viceable, but Petherum believes it “the best a poor grateful chipmunk mother could do.” kkk; x % X X X X X X X X t X TIRED, BLUE Took Cardui And Im proved Greatly, Says Okla.

CARDUI Used By Women For Over 50 Years KB28K . Eleven in Japan Taxed Over Million Yen a Year Tokyo.—Japan has 11 multimillion aires who pay more than 1,000,000 yen ■a year in income tax, and eight of these belong to the two great fam ilies of merchant princes, the Aliisuis and the Iwusakis. Returns for the fiscal year ended Alnrcli 31 show six Mitsuis, brothers and cousins, in this charmed circle. The Mitsuis also supplied the larg est individual taxpayer for 1027-28, taking that honor away from the hvasukis. In 1920-27 Baron Kyuyn Iwasaki topped the list with 4,000,000 yen to Baron Uachiroemon Aiitsui's 8.- 000,000. Now it Is the head of the house of Aiitsui’s turn, since he leads with 2,700,000 yen to tils Iwasaki ri val’s 2,000,000. Belgian Hens Do Part ' Toward Stabilization Brussels.—Statisticians reveal that 24,000,000 hens cackle in Belgium to day, ns compared with only 12,000,000 in 1014. No 'illier Belgian industry having doubled, since prewar days, credit must be given to Belgium’s hens for being unusually active nnd prolific. Belgian hens, it is averred, have done their share In stabilizing the franc nnd improving the kingdom's trade balance since Belgium now exports 000,000,000 eggs n year, Instead of importing 80,- 000,000 ns before tlie World war. Belgian hens lay eggs scientifically these days. Their greater output ts put on tho account of rnfional feed ing, fights against epidemics, and se lection of the best poultry races. Tlie very weight of the eggs has Increased that way; a prewar egg weigiied no more than 50 grams; the modern, sci entific egg in Belgium weighs front GO to 70 grams. Egg preservation by cold storage or chemical means has made great progress, too, particularly in the Flanders country around Cour- trai, where a single plant kept 15,000,- 000 eggs Inst winter. Alost of the eggs go t)o England. Dahlonega and Gainesville Bus' Line. Leave Dnhlonega 7:45 A. M. Leave Gainesville 8 :45 P. M. Princeton Hotel. Phone 5J. Dahlonega. J. F. Sutton. .
