SHORT STOPS.
What The People Are Saying

What The People Are Saying.
The position of Mayor Callaghan in
regard to the franchise granted the
Texas Transportation Co., is causing
any amount of comment. The mayor
has taken the advanced position that
the city should receive compensation
for all valuable franchises.
In this positionhe is thoroughly backed
by the experience made in other NUM-
cipalties, but it is argued, that it is
another case of locking the door after
the horse has been stolen.
Our city has, in order to encourage
the investment of capital, given away
every franchise asked for; we have ev-
en- gone further and paid for the prlvi-
lege of giving.
The ordinance passed by the city
council, which the mayor threatens to
veto, is to allow the breweries to trans
port their freight to and from their
breweries TO the railroad tracks.
When the two breweries were found
ed the pricipal idea was to secure a site
upon the bank. Of the river in order
to use the water. If the two breweries
were looking for sites today they would
locate upon the track of one of our rail-
roads.
All great manufacturing establish
.ments today in the United States are
situated upon railroad tracks. The
main thing is ability to handle the out.
put with the least possible expense
but with the greatest expedition.
The breweries are the most successful
manufacturing establishments in ouI
city. They have been built up at grea
expense and energy. They deserve al
the help the city can give them.
The city is precluded from aiding en-
terprises>by granting SUBSIDIES or re
lieving them of taxation, the only re
source left is our much abused fran
chise to use our streets.
Mayor cailaghan can afford to lie
this opportunity go and fall back upol
the other fellows.

THINGS ABOUT MANKIND.

The liver is n most wonderful organ,
containing facilities of several kinds.
But perhaps the most wonderful thing
in it is that part set aside to look out
for and arrest poisons.
Who would think that in his eye there
is block and pulley, or tackle" as the
sailors call it, AS complete and efficient
as that with which ship hoists her
mainsail? There it is, however; and
whenever you look at the tip of your
nose the muscle that moves your eye
ball works in it. There are several of
these pulleys in the body.
So inventive was nature when con-
structing our body that the difficulty
is to stop enumerating her clever ideas.
She saw that we would very soon grow
tired if we had to hold up two heavy
legs by means Of muscular effort, 30
she made the hip joint alright, and
the pressure of the air alone keeps the
leg in its place.
Adams apple, if it was once that
fruit that brought into the world all
our woe, is now a useful organ 1t
serves as sort of storage cistern of the
blood for the supply of the brain. When
the heart sends up too much blood
Adams apple intercepts it, or part of
it; and when the direct supply from
the heart temporarily runs short,
Adams apple gives up it's store.
Most people know the use of the epi-
glottis, which saves us from imminent
death every time we swallow bit of
food. At the bacS of the mouth the
air passage and the food passage cross
each other, and, whenever we swallow
food, it would inevitably go into the
windpipe and choke us, only that this
little body pops down and covers the
entrance. It is like the policeman who
regulates the traffic where streets
cross.
The semi-circular canals, for CEN
turies physiological puzzle, are an ex-
traordinary device for enabling us to
keep our balance. They are little chan
nels, followed out, in connection with
the ear, in the bones Of the head, and
partly filled with fluid lymph. AS our
head or body sways the fluid moves,
acting like spirit level, and inform
ing the brain whether we are standing
in the perpendicular or at n dangerous
angle.-Answcrs.

TOLD EY THE EYEBROWS.

It is popularity believed that if ones
eyebrows meet it Indicates deceit.
Charles Kingsley indt.rscs this belief,
but Tennyson had other ideas and po-
etically speaks Of married Lrows."
In Turkey meeting eyebrows are
greatly admired, and the women use
artificial. means to bring the brows to
this condition, and if art cannot induce
thin eyebrows to grow, they make up
by drawing n black line with paste.
1t would appear that the Greeks adj
mircd brows which almost met, and the
fashionable inhabitants Of Rome not
only approved of them, but resortel to
pigments to make up the lack which
sometimes existed.
Some proverbs state that the person
whose eyebrows meet will always have
good luck, while others state exactly
the reverse. The Chinese say that
people whose eyebrows meet can never
hope to attain the dignity Of q minister
OF state" and in Greece Of to-day the
man whose brows meet is said to be
Il vampire, while in Denmark and Ger
many it is said he Is a werewolf.
Sonnets innumerable have been writ
ten on the shape of the eyebrow, tho
arched style being preferred and
styled by Herder "the rainbow of
peace" because when Strengthened by
n frown it proclaims storm" The old
masters always painted the arched
brow, and in speaking Of his beloved
Dante says: "The eyebrow. polished
and dark, as though the brush had
drawn it," A woman's eyebrows shouid
be delicately penciled and dark, though
some prefer IL contrast between the
eyebrows and the hair.
