A HOT KITCHEN •nd • GAS RANGE Are comparative strangers — where one is, the other cannot exist. , This it true also in the relative cost of cooking with coal and IMS; coal costs more, is more troublesome, annoying, inconvenient and less desirable in every way than GAS. i The same is true of WATER HEATERS. GAS with a Humphrey Water , Heater beats water quicker and at a lower cost per gallon than any otber The heavy increase in our sales of GAS RANGES and WATER HEATERS | this year over all others is a sure sign the citizens of Cape May are awake to the fact that the GAS WAY is not only the beet, but tbe cheapest. 1 1 It is never too l*c to install a GAS RANGE or WATER HEATER. GAS I for cooking and WATER HEATING is now becoming the "all the year | around fuel.

COMMISSION EXPLAINS FISH AND GAME LICENSES With the opening of tbe fishing season for brook trout, rainbow trout, brown trout and land-locked salmon in New Jersey on April 1, and the rush of resident and nonresident angles for licenses under the new law which became effective this year, some confusion has existed in certain sections over various features of the act, and to clarify the situation in the minds ; both .of anglers and hunters, the I State Fish and Game Commission | lias issued a brief summary of the statute. Persons seeking outdoor ! pastime either with rod or gun and ! who do not wish to read through ] i the entire law will find the infor-jl matiou contained in this summary, 1 which is printed below for their : bengfjlf'of timely interest. j] Tide Waters | : A previous announcement from « the commission says: "No fishing i is needed to fish in the Del- ^ aware river throughout its entire, length and no license is required ] to fish in the tide waters of the j State. Tidewaters mean the ex- , treme limit of a normal tide. Be- | low that point the law will not be , enforced, but it will be enforced , beyond the extreme point of limit' , reached by normal tide." | The summary of the law, which , went into effect January 1, 1915, , follows : , ] Summary All licenses under the new'| Hunting and Fishing License Law ^ , are to be obtained from any coun- , or municipal clerk or from a ] salaried fish and game warden. , lit side nts' Hunting and Fishing , License 'at Resident males and females ( above the age of fourteen (who | must be citizens of the United j _ States, who actually and bona fide ' j reside in this State at the time of !

ROUNDING CAPE HATTERAS IN A STORM "Man overboard!" ; The newspaper headlines have told how frequently this cry has 1 rung out on ships off the Atlantic ■ coast in the heavy weather of the ' winter season. To appreciate fully what it means it is necessary to be 1 a passenger on a coastwise boat ' that is plunging through the comb- • ers when the warning is shouted. " What chanee has a human toeing overboard in a churning sea withj ! the wind screaming out of the ; northeast at seventy . miles an I It is too late before the warning : is shouted. At best the captain may only put his ship about and . beat back through the storm — for what? The instant that the wave , has caught its victim he is doomed. , No boat could live in the smother \ of foam out beyond the vessel's] I rail. Much less could even the sturdiest swimmer breast tlie| waves long enough to he picked up i " should the lookout's eyes be sharp enough to follow him. i Nowhere except on a small sail- ' ing vessel does the tragedy of such • an accident strike home so forcibly I as on one of the steamers in the : coasting trade. That is because j I the passenger complement of such j • a vessel is small enough for every-', to form an acquaintance with] . everyone else. The shout of " Man ! i overboard!" inspires a feeling ofj personal loss that is missinc on the j ocean greyhound, where the pas- , run into thousands. On , , t'-e W«* line* such an addition to j the toll of 'hp pea may pass nn-j, known for hours to many of thei hut on the smaller craft the news mav he expected to" spread instantlv. and the depres-j 'sion that follows the telling covers j< cabin to steerage like a pall. ' ( . Fortunately the number of . , coastwise runs on which there is 1 ( I cry of "Man overboard!" isi | out of all proportion to the few in-!' ; stances every year in which a giant | 1 wave comes smashing aboard ship, j « siezes some unwary passenger or!; member of the crew and whips him ] the rail into eternity before , ;his shipmates are aware of what , Jh*s hynene'l. But even under ! the best of circumstances, with no i of life to' depress a person's 1 .spirits, one of the smaller steam- j | shins plying out of New York is . not a cheerful craft to be on when jshe is bucking a northeaster .through a pitch-dark night. | Even the most self-controlled j captain, who can assure you with < i all the optimism in the .world that 1

- this isn't a circumstance in comparison wiin the mgut fifteen i years ago when his vessel shifted j ner cargo, lost a propeller blaae J and still rode safely by Hatteras, ' jjis unconvincing at such a time. A -, crash of dishes hurlea from their , | racks in the kitchen can nullify I * | hours of hard labor by him and his i first officer, second officer, third of- > heer, first engineer, second engi- ! neer, third engineer and crew. It \ sounds as if a wave had caved in I several plates of the ship's side, < ' and he has to busy himself im- i 1 mediately to dispel the impression : > that something of the sort has oc- 1 ' curred. ' But there is comedy to be found < ' in a storm at sea, providing you : : are not too seasick to find it. The ] ! | amount of genuine amusement ■ that a genial stewardess of ample i proportions can get out of a black 1 eye sustained in tumbling down i the main saloon stairway is arnaz- i ing. And she can get it over the i footlights, moreover, by describing 1 : detail to the passengers who did i not witness the occurrence how the i captain jumped to save her with l the first officer jumping to steady and how ail three were bowled I i j over and rolled from one side of ] the dining saloon and back again 1 1 when the ocean caught the ship 1 i j with a series of abnormally big i .rollers and shook it as a terrier I shakes a rat. i] The remarkable thing about 1 a "blow" is the speed with : J which the recollection of it vanish- i tes from the ininds of passengers and ship's officers with the fii^t • ! of sunshine and balmy weath- i jer. The northeaster is relegated to ' | the past as speedily as it howls off i over the horizon, and even the most i timorous passenger is sure that ! : there isn't another one like it that ■ can possibly bedevil the ship. The ! memory of a cry of "Man over- i ■ board!" seems dim and distant, ] t and the warning of perils for those : who go down to the sea in ships < ! ceases instantly to seem personal, i New York Evening Sun. HOW MANY DRUG ADDICTS ARE THERE? Since the passage of the Harri- . son Narcotic Law, numerous state- ! ments have appeared in newspa- ] pers and medical journals regard- , ing the number of drug addicts in - the United States. Most of these ! statements are mere guesses, no I accurate data existing on which to " base any careful estimates. Cer- \ tainly the maximum figures given j by some writers are greatly exag- • gerated. In a recent issue of the > Scientific American, Lucius P. Brown, food and drug commission- ' er of the state of Tennessee, furj nishes data on which to base a p more or less accurate estimate. > From figures derived from the op- . eration of the food and drug laws r of Tennessee. Commissioner Brown estimates that there are approximately 5.000 drug addicts in , ;that state. As Tennessee eom- > prises about 2 1-3 per cent, of the entire population of the country, ■ this would indicate that there are ' about 225.000 drug addits in the \ United States. "But," savs Mr. , ! Brown. "Tennessee being an agricultural state and therefore decidedly more free from such addicts I I than those states where the pres- [ sure of modern life is harder, we 'should add 10 per cent at least to . j this number on the assumption i that the drug addicts throughout 1 the country will average 10 per | cent higher than in Tennessee, giv- ' ing in round numbers 247.000 ,idrug victims for the entire eoun- . - try." On these figures, he con-'. ; chides that 250,000 is a maximum estimate, and the addicts annually . use a l»o ut $6,500,000 worth of I ! drugs unnecessarily. These fig- ' (ures, as Mr. Brown says, are bad ! [enough, but they are very differ- ( Jent from the two or two and a half j ' million drue addiets whidh have claimed by some sensational I writers. This estimate quoted by ' The Journal of the American Med-. ' Association is interesting, though, being based on figures from a single state, it must be regarded as only an approximation.

ANSWERS ANT1S' I ARGUMENT II ! By Dille Hastings , ' Some of our esteemed contemporaries have lately gone back to 1 the primitive anti-suffrage argu""Woman's place is in the i home." It would not be amiss to remind them, though so late and so obvious, that the house in which a woman resides does not necessarily constitute the boundaries of her Home is not just where we reside; it is where we live. It extends to the limit -to which the family interest extends. A woman cannot attend to all her duties by remaining within her dwelling place. She should supervise every detail of the management - -of her that it may be a comfortable and happy abode for the family, but she cannot possibly attend to the comfort and happiness of family if she remains indefinitely within its walla Nearly everything in that home Is ruled from outside. The food which is so -necessary to the health of her family must be and of good quality. For of these elements she is entirely dependent upon the food in- " spec-tors, appointed through politics. If an inspector is appointed, not lie is competent and efficient in that line of inquiry, but because he has a "political pull," which is too often the case, the woman in the home runs the risk of feeding her family impure food. it is impossible to conserve the health and happiness of the family without leaving the in search of proper l'ood. At an early age the children leave the house to go to school. Surely the mother's interest folher children to school. Who is so vitally interested in the conditions of the school and its environments as the mother? If teachers are not chosen for their ability and efficiency, but are appointed because they have a "pull," who is more interested than the woman! Does not the school become a part of the home, and should a woman stay in the house and neglect a duty that concerns her family — a duty which she is very capable of performing with dignity? When the time comes for the children to go into the industrial 1 world, surely the mother's interest i follows them." Is she not anxious , about the conditions under which ; they must work? It is he* business to see that the place and conditions under which they mu6t ' work? It is her business to see . that the place and conditions are . sanitary, moral and safe from fire, . etc. 1 4r , t Are not these all home interests in which a woman Is concerned? Should she stay in her house and not raise her voice in protest if ' these safeguards are neglected, ■ which endanger the health, morals * . and life of her famflyl The con- ; tlitions and places in which our children and our neighbors' children work belong to the home ; and women who always aim to improve , the home must leave the house to i watch over the children when they , ere employed. To effectively guard her own family she must ext'*nd her interest to others. The church, the playground, the recreation hall, are all part of the : home when one's children find their religion and amusement in them. The ho«pit»l also belongs to the home. It is the concern of the mother if it is not properly managed. for slip knows rot at what tiirte her child may he one of its patients. The health department, with its control of contagious disease. with its supervi-ion over food, milk, water, hospitals, public , institutions, is also the concern of the home woman. Charitable and correctional institutions should come within her ' and inspection; and a right, as a mother or a ho"i"maker, to he interested in the onceedings in the chamber of cn» oils, because these proceedings feet her home. Truly, woman's place is in/ •• as the anti-suffrc«ri-but in the larger home i which extends to tkcommunity in which she lives. CASTORIA For Iriants and Children In Use For Over 30 Yean
