TALKS and TALES - With and 4bout CAPITAL’S GUESTS Hearken, mothers! Especlally those of you who' fret, fume, get nervous and grow thin every time your pre- clous ~darling “snoodlkums” cuts looge with a bawl, swallows its bot- tle or Tenigs on certain food. Listen 1o the | story of a six-month-old cheriib, who, since first opening heér eyes on w delirious world, has.travel- ed more than 7,000 miles on rallroad trains, never lost a wink of sleep nor caused hér parents a moment's worry and who Is today as healthy 4 specimen as one would wish to see. At the Lee House Kishpaugh, “angel child” of Mr. and Mrs. T, J. . Kishpaugh of ' Phila delphia’ and Hartford, kicked high her chubby trilbles, and tossed and cooed ‘“Let’s go!" or its equivalent in Dbaby talk. Only the night before the dimpled traveler had arrived in town, after a continuous journey from:South Bend, Ind., but a matter of a thousand miles more or less is absolutely nothing in Barhara's Young Mfe, and, evidently aware that her parents contemplated leaving for Hartford that afternoon, she prob- &bly falled to see the sense of stick- ing around Washington. Barbara first saw the, light of day last June out at Garfild Hospital, adgnever since then has her father wlio s -one of the best known tax torfieys in Philadelphia and New ngland—taken a trip that she and rs. Kishpaugh have not accom- panied him. On trains a good size market basket is the little o 'S crib, and when night ctmes all Mrs. Kishpaugh does is to slip her into it, give her a vacuum bottle of milk, Lang the receptacle on a hook in the berth, and nothi more is Barbara u porter next < ‘Travelin t o #ald the fond mother, “for she never had & sick day in her life.

She is onl ~ix month understands little Barbara & the lows, m with Wayving Barbara “bon voyage.” who should be encountered on leaving the hotel but the little proud father, who, too, praised most highly his daughter’s good behavior. At one time Mr. Kishpaugh served as chief of the amortization section of the income tax unit, and Is well known by many In that department of the government. Asked about con- ditions @s he found them in his terri- tory, the tax expert said “Business has taken a wonderful brace since President Coolidge sage, including Secretary Mellon tux reduction plan, was made public. b\\ an « mple of its effect on the usiness world let me cite one specific jage, that of a filend of mine. a well nown {mrorter of English worste ln} N'QW Ferlk. . o s Prior to the declaration of an extra dividend by the Steel O rpo fon, krrlfi the announcement of Mr Mellon's tax-reduction suggestion, this im- DorEer was forced to cancel order aft- er order, and things had begun to serious, but immedfately fol- lowing the aetion of the steel com- pany and the Secreta: proposals rot on were the can ed orders re- newed, but the merchant was literally swamped with new business. After stating that business through- out A\' w England was near to normal 3(_\'. Kishpaugh spoke enthusias ically of the results being attained by appointed to investigate certain practicing physicians in Con- necticut and other parts of New Eng- land. n Hartford, alone, he said, eighteen licenses to practice medicine have been rescinded and the commit- tee has hardly started its work. Things .had reached a- sorry pass in many parts of Connecticut. The un- principled would buy &chool and medi- cal college degrees from fake Insti- tutions in other states, present their credentials before the Eclectic Medical Examining Boasd of Connecticut, and a three-vear reciprocity license would be granted them-to carry -on their ne- farious business.

Dr. Chris- tian Jeft his Tennessee home at the' age.of fourteen to make his way in the world. He gradually rose to a vosition of standing in his profession, when his health falled and the ver- dict of death was pronounced. Speaking of his “‘comeback,” when seen at the hotel, the physician sald: “Sitting on the top of a rail fence virtually waliting to die, I looked down :over a clover field and saw horses and cattle grazing, all healthy and happy and full of life. They did not Hve on beef and beer, nor pork, piokles.or ple. They did not make their blood out of good food and. then poison At with the alkaloid of tobacco and Hquor.

A gifted man who might have risen to any pinnacle of fame, had.any purposé pliy the game; and now we see him sent to prison, all bent and bur- | dened by his shame. No doubt he was jntent on making, when he was young, an honest roll; .the hard- earned kopecks he was raking, like any other thrifty soul; but later had a taste of faking when he dug up the southeast pole. He might have been a moral banker, dispensing coin at 8 per cent, some hamlet’s compass, helm and anchor, by mo cheap Uticas up-pent; but in his heart there was the canker that one small taste of faking lent.

He sald yesterday that mxm committee, now Investigating trafiic o v submitted to the Senate a recom- mendation for the proposed change in the hours of opening and cl the schgols, e Senator Ball sald he was impress with the fact that such a 'zhan:'g would relieve congestion of trafc between §:30 am. and 9, and would also tend to make the streets safer for the childrén going to school, since the heavy automobile traffic just be- fore 9 o'clock would have passed through the streets when it came time for the children to go to school. ANTH RACITE COST, TOPIC. | Premiums Exacted at Mines Cause High Prices, Commission Says Reports of wholesale dealers in an- thracite coal for the two weeks fn;:d December 1 indicate a marked de- crease in the proportion of anthracite on which a gross profit of 50 cents or more per ton was obtained, the Fed- eral Trade Commission announced yes- terday in the sixth of its current series of coal reports. Although large mar- Zins, ranging up to §1.25 per ton, are still being realized by some :whole- alers on a small part of the tonnage cite through the hands of two or more wholesalers still tends to enhance the prices of a part of the coal handled, the main cause of high prices charged the consumer continues to be the pre- miums exacted at the mine by pro- ducers of a comparatively small pro- pertion of the total anthracite out- put. Anthracite production _ continues large, amounting to more than $3,- 000,000 net tons for the first eleven months of the calendar vear 1923, as compared with only 42,000,000 tons during the same period of 1922 and 4,000,000 tons in 1921.
