The feeling between them was bitter.
The families of each knew Of the es-

ice machine to be placed in a cold stor-
age warehouse. The cost of ice this
summer was five cents per pound, or
at the rate of 500 per ton.

Have you ever noticed that nearly

known neV policemen to start on their

pounds. III six months they would
tip the sc3les at $50, and in a year
reach the 1900 mark. 1t must be the
slow sauJtering in the open air that
does it, for I have noticed that while
policen2 grow fat. the house SER
