The lazy and dreamy old Nassau that in other days traded in sponges and tropical fruits, is to-day a busy commercial center. The sponge-baths are now used as the small craft of the smugglers to reach the South Atlantic coast of the United States, while vessels of all sizes that range from sea-going tugs to a converted Spanish battle-cruiser, carry the. cargoes of rum to New York and the New England coast. In the bar-rooms, at the dining-tables, in the lobbies and on the porches of the hotels and boarding-houses at Nassau, the capital city of the Bahama Islands, the bootleggers and whisky smugglers "talk of their plans, tell of their profits and laugh at Uncle Sam. There, according to Frank K. Dolan, who went to the Bahamas to study the rum-runners's methods for the New York Daily Neves, "a man is either 'right or 'queer. " If a 6tranger is suspected of being "queer" thought to be revenue officer, a detective, or some one likely to interfere with the rum-smugglers' operations "he is curtly told to leave town, and in so'me instances blackjacked and beaten.' In THE LITERARY DIGEST this week, December 30th, there rs an Informative and interesting account of the methods and operations of the whisky smugglers.

"Laughter is the Sweetest Music in the World" states the Detroit Free Press. Like the refrain of an enchanting melody it lingers in memory, a recollection of happy moments. More pleasing than the most delicate symphony is the spontaneous laughter of a crowd. It dulls care and creates joy. It tones the system. The urge to join is irresistible. The Literary Digest gathers weekly from the world's press the brightest of the current laugh-provokers. The best of these are presented in the merry motion picture, "Fun from the Press." The funniest incidents, the most laughable joke, and the pithiest patter on the serious questions of the hour are all included. It'$ sparkling-new every week. Watch for it at your local theater.
