(By Prank Parker Stockbridge)
*** the MMf*
a It's "sugaring-off " tame wrw, ijp
m my home county of Berkaiwe.
xhey are tapping the maple trees in
every "sugar bodi." It'a great fan
and profitable, too. The averse
ample tree yields about 20 galion?
of sap. It ie gathered in buckets?
old-timens still use the old wooden
"sap-pails"?and poured into barrel)
on sleds, which the oxen or Koikes
draw to where the big iron a^p-kettle
tlarids over the log fire.
Fer every barrel of sap boiled dowa |
you get a gallon of maple ?ywp.
Boiling the syrup down still mar",
leaves a residue of sugar, wh?h is
worth in trade at the store from 1() to
20 cents a pound. The owners cl the
biggest "sugar-bushes" pack Itkeir
own sugar under their own brands,
for ihe city markets.
SUCCESS . . . <xua
I am always interested in tneft Who
started at the bottom and have wetfe? d
up to the top in one business. Per
haps they are more interesting to aie
oecausc I have never had the temp?rli
ment and disposition to climb th*
adder a rung at a time. I 've afoayp tfi
ed to go faster than that, and if iftherv
were too many above me on on? ladder
i'd try another.
However, I take my hat off tq men
like Oscar W. Smith, president of
?reat drug manufacturing haute rf
Parke, Davis A Company, wfyo h+t
just celebrated the 50th aruxivprp^ry
of his connection with the 9^tA con
cern. He started in as an ofdap fay

FARE mid pmn
The Interstate Comnvree (Vjqp^nia
don has ordered all itlie Easter^ ?\|
toads to reduce their passenger fyipv
;o two cents a mile, with ^fyqfJifr
rent for the privilege of riding in a
Pullman car. This is bringing rai|
*rcid rates back to pre-war qp&ad
:rd with a Aeugeasce. It cute ^ke
??ate between New York and
roia $32.17 to $18.17, and otlpj tr^pp
n proportion. It is the idea ?faai
he lower rate will induce more pepple
io travel, and I am inclined ty
that is true. The biggest paseeRfpr
carrying road in New England,
s the New Haven, runs many
?ven in the summer tourist setyiop,
over 108-mile stretches with not
than a dozen paseengers to a car ex
?

Personally, I have always objected
to onying railroad fares ejfice the
?otads stopped giving out flfltjeqa to
newspaper men.
KINO . . . ?
King Edward is starting out Ut Ik
jjst as good a saleatroan for
Empire goods as bo was when ho wa*
Prince of Wales. He went to % ooni
mercial exhibit of Empire-made gwod*
the other day. He stopped at a htfofth
where they were showing pipes m^de
on the Island of Malta, and bought
one of them. The immediate TfDfiuJt
nas that the Malta pipe makers njefe
swamped with orders?enoogb to keep
trthem busy for a year and a Wtf, He
admired some African ostrich fath
ers and wondered w%y the ladies had
stopped wearing them in their hats.
A big boom in ostrich feelthers started
overnight. \ ..
I have often wondered why the
fashion for tatrich feathers went o^t
so suddenly. I imagine the war had
something to do with it. I retnemjber
when no lady considered herself we1!
dreased unless ?&e had two or tftreo
'willow plumes" in her hist, which
cost $15 or |20 apiece or even fftore
I remember one night in a theatflf in
Columbus, Ohio, when somebody ritofo
two willow plumes off my wife's hat,
which she had piflbed to tibe seat in
front of her. That set us back atopt
