Bv-the-Way.

Every person who throws a banana or
orange peel on the sidewalk, takes the
chance of committing granddaughter. A
number of lives are lost in the cities OF
this country every year from this cause,
while countless injuries of more or less
seriousness result therefrom. 1t is very
strange that so many people will still be
guilty of this murdereus carelessness, not
withstanding the constant public protests
1t is largely. no doubt, the work of chill
dren. and it should be a part of the in
struction of every household to teach the
danger and wickedness of the habit.

The Berlin Imperial Health Office has
recently issued an announcement to the
effect that experiments demonstrate
that the bacteria OF cholera in contact
with the cut surfaces of both oranges and
lemons are destroyed in few hours.
They remain active for some time longer
on the uniniured rine of the fruits. bat
even then die within twenty-four hours.
The destructive property as regards the
cholera bacteria is supposed to be due to
the large amount of acid in these fruits.
In consequence of this quality the health
officers consider it unnecessary to place
any restriction on the transit of these
fruits, even if it should be ascertained
that they come from places where cholera
is present at the time. Not a single in
stance was noted in which cholera was
disseminated by either oranges or lemons,
and as they are consumed in larger guam
titles in this country than perhaps any
other fruit, the news will be reassuring.
Did you ever watch woman buy pa
per in railroad train going to the city
Nine times out of ten she won't look at
the news columns, but as soon as her
penny is deposited with the newsboy she
turns the paper inside out and looks for
the long advertisements. These she will
scan interestedly until she arrives at the
ferry and as soon as possible she makes a
bee line for bargain counter. You can
almost always guess mans business If
you watch him buy newspaper. sea-
faring man or one interested in vessels
will look first for the shipping news. If
the newspaper has synopsis of the news
he may glance over that first, but he will
invariably turn to the news most con-
nected with his business.
If the purchaser of the paper turns al
most directly to the financial column you
can rely on it he is either business man
or is dealing in stocks on the sly. If he
casts his eye first over the stock column
depend on it he is either broker or is
taking chances on margins in a bucket
shop. If he deliberates on the quotations
he is dealer of some kind, SO just watch
him read more particularly certain quo
tations and you can just about guess his
business. 1t is the workingman, the
manufacturer, the clerk, the salesman and
the retail dealers who read the news
first.
The farmer either looks at the horse
sale column or the seed and farm imple-
plement store advertisements.
The dandy chappie with an eye for the
girls studies the fashion plates.
Just watch the piece of news, the col
umn or the advertisement that most in
terests the reader and you can guess what
is his business or employment.
