Halt! he called to the driver.-Thlatter did so, suddenly. Mr. Sullivan reached down, unlaced his shoes, pulled them and his socks off, rolled up his pants and stepped out of the vehicle into the grass. He waded, dragged his feet, lifted them up and put them down softly. He had blades of grass between his toes, pulled great handsful and washed his feet with it After being in the grass for half an hour the sky became overcast The driver said a storm was coming. Mr. Sullivan told him to never mind; that he would be paid for getting wet, A storm did come. It rained torrentlal-Iy- . Through it all Mr. Sullivan stayed In the grass.

Big Weekly Department of Agriculture EmbarrasLooksed by Growth In Popularity ing for Some Way to "Sidestep Without Hurting Any Ones Feelings. Again the department of agriculture Is suffering from an excess of popularity. The last time it ran into an embarrassment of this sort was when the pa'st spring it issued its now famous bird book. which was a manual of the common farm and orchard birds of interest to farmers. ' There was such a shoal of requests forv copies that the department has never been able ter catch up with the requests. This time it is in connection with the weekly news letter that Secretary Houston undertook to get out as a sort of compensation to the 36,000 crop rorrespondenti who get fio other reward for their services. The first issue of this letter has Just been put out It consists of about 1,800 words of typewriting giving in popular, language and paragraph form summaries of bulletins and other things of immediate interest to agriculturists. The intention was to get out an edition Just large enough to supply the correspondents.- - The first number contained paragraphs ahout investigations into seed adulteration, damage to the market value of hides by the cattle tick, action against misbranded insecticides, etc., of direct interest to farmers. There was an immediate flood of applications for the' letter from country papers and besides other things a request that a copy be sent to each of the 68,000 postoffices for posting for the benefit of visitors. All this was quite complimentary, but the appropriation for white paper alone, to meet such a demand 'was too much of a drain, and the mechanical facilities for printing and mailing kll the copies were entirely Inadequate. So .the departmentls now looking around for some way to sidestep gracefully, without hurting any one's Washington. f '' i - reine-mor- five-ce- nt The leaning chimney of the Avenue Presidents withstood the great storm of 1913.

It has been a leaning chimney for many years, , but In view of the tenacity and persistence with which It leans one would hesitate to' call it a decrepit chimney. This old chimney leans as much as It did when 16th street was only 16th street and qo more, when the section over which It leans was generally called Meridian Hill neighborhood, and before rich men began to build residences In that section. Friends of the crooked 'chimney felt that In the late storm the end of It had come. They felt that Its bricks and mortar and Its topping tile would be scattered on the ground. But the chimney never lost a brick. On the west side of 16th street, at the intersection of Columbia road .and Mount Pleasant street, is a row of small frame houses. They sit rather far back from the street, for the line of 16th street and its grade were slightly changed when it war made Into a great way.
