"Well," said the other, "I hadn't ever thought of that before, but I presume I do move around at something or other during the entire time." "Very good," said Edison, "that's exactly what I do and I venture the statement that I enjoy what I do more than you do; so, of course, I don't get tired. Besides that, I am able to ac-

OUR OWN BAEDEKER'S GUIDE. THE GRAND CALUMET RIVER.
Outside of tho court! nothing is s6
sluggish in this enterprising county. The "Caliminx," as It used to be called
by the Indians, 'empties one end at South Chicago, but it can't be blamed
for that. The other end Is supposed
to empty at Miller, but the natives
like closed mouths sd they blocked it with FSnd. There are nearly as
many kinks in the famous stream as there are in Lake county politics, but steps are being. taken to eliminate the crookedness. The Gary Steel works,
the Hammond distillery and the Hohman street bridge are to be seen by voyagers ,on the river, but nearly everybody p'refers to take the Interurban
so some of these thing are missed. Tom
Knotts, who spent many years near the
banks of the Calums, used to catch fish
in the river which supported him while Gary was still a place of shacks. As
the city grew Tom went after bigger fish, and it is predicted that many years will elapse before there'll be any more fish to be caught either In Gary or In
the river. In Hammond the people re
member the Calumet from its smells.
and the trouble In getting a bridge over It. Clark Station and Eat Chicago folks swim in it, but other communities along the rlver are equipped with bath
tubs so thev do need to swim. There is
an old story that one of Johnny Fltxgerald's cows Used to drink water from the river near the distillery and that
it gave forth milk punches. Herr Hen- !
nery Coldbottle, a noted scientist and
eymoteehnologist, tried to buy the bovine, but it expired at the Keeley cure
before the papers could be signed. The government says that the stream is navigable, but every one around here knows that Uncle Sam must have his
little joke now and then. TIi IS NOT THE WIIJJ WEST. The 'steemed Gary Trib. refers to Hon. M. N. Castleman as a bogus councilman who Is slopping over and whose head will be punched by a prominent citizen. This is a vile slander on the pe-pull's champ-een. M. N. is as genuine as he Is original and he never slops over. His stream of Battle Axe hits the spltoon every time, and If any
one tries to punch his noodle they want to be careful, or they'll be well
sprayed.
