subject is IN greater demand.
1t was thought for time that
Prof. Atwater's experiments would
be detriment to the work, but nc
one need have any misgiving, the
truth is not thing to be feared by
any good cause.
1t is a matter of not the slight.
est importance to the advocate of
total abstinance whether or not
alcohol can be assimilated as a
food. That it is poison, also, to
use Il very definite word, and also
does a very great injury to the
system is much more potent.
Some writer's have pronounced
Prof. Atwater opposed to temper
ance and the giving scientific tem-
perance instruction in the schools
when the only poin, he made in
opposition was that the food value
should be taught in connection
with the evil effects.
The chief result from his six
days experiment to prove a scien-
titic point has aroused public SEN
timent and better grade of text
books will be the result. The
friends of scientific temperance
instruction have no reason to be dis
mayed and no occasion for yield.
ing an inch of ground already
gained.
We are glad to know that Prof.
White has emphasized this work
during the year. The lesson on
temperance hygiene given by him
in the summer school was made a
profitable object lesson to the chill
dren in model class and to the
teachers who count themselves
also among the favored few in be-
ing able to listen to Prof. Franklin
who heard Prof. Atwater's lecture
and part of the discussion that fol-
lowed. Prof. Franklin is con-
vinced in his own mind that Prof.
Atwater really favors temperance.
He stated on the platform his
dissatisfaction of the comments
made by the daily papers and the
people opposed to temperance.
While he did not state fully his
reasons for being opposed to drink
he made it plain to his bearers
that he was opposed to it.
He spoke with considerable feel
ing on the subject, conveying to
his hearers the thought that it had
marred the happiness of home or
friends.
It is we'll that the food value in
alcohol is SO slight that it takes /,
scientific man to prove it's ex
istence. The wayfarlng man,
though fool, needs no proof that it
is poison

advocates of strong drink have not
interested themselves in sending

India that life might be saved.
Science has long since proven the
fact that there is more nutriment
in a few loaves of bread, than q
barrel of beer.

truth as learned from the great
teacher science and from the
greater teacher mother experience.

The bible pronounces woe on

is no mention made as to how it

ARE WITHOUT POWER,
Commissioners Cannot Grant Permit
for Telephone Connection.


Representative Underwood of Alabama
who resides Binney street, Columbia
Heights. recently requested the District
Commissioners to inform him why a per
nit has not been granted for the erection
of telephone line to the house in which
he resides. In reply the Commissioners
today wrote Mr.. Underwood that the ques-
ton of their power to grant such permits
was recently passed upon adversely by
their attorney. who holds, in effect, as
was stated in The Star at the time, that
no law has given such power to the Com
missioners.
The Commissioners further stated that
they have brought the matter to the atten-
ton of Senator Mcmillan. chairman of the
Senate District committee. to whom 4
clause was submitted for insertion in one
of the pending appropriation bills granting
such authority. The Commissioners ex-
plain that they fully appreciate the en-
barrassment caused Representative Under
wood and other residents outside the city
limits. and say they will gladly aid in Sc
curing such legislation and be very much
pleased to have his cooperation therein.

For the bathroom and toilet table
borax is entitled to a place to whic
no other article can lay claim. 1t re-
freshes and invigorates the system, re-
moves all unpleasant odor of persp;ra-
ton, giving healthy glow to the
skin, leaving it white and soft when
added in the bath water. For wash
ing the face it is better than soap,
and if used regularly will keep soft
and white the hands of even those
women who must of necessity do rough
work. AS wash for the hair, borax
has long been regarded as the best
and most harmless lotion. 1t removes
dandruff, stimulates the scalp. and
preserves the beauty of the hair. Be
ing harmless and effective antiseptic,
borax is, of course, an excellent denti-
frice, and, if used in time, will prevent
decay of the teeth, harden the gums
and induce a general healthful action
of the mouth. People troubled with
sore, tender feet will find great relief
from frequent bathing in borax water

STEAMERS FOR CRUSHING ICE
Powerful Vessels Are Required to Keep

Powerful Vessels Are Required to Keep
River Channels Clear.
The great and powerful ice-crushins
ception car ferries-that is, they trans
port whole trains Of passenger and
freight cars from one terminal of
railway line to the other, thus con-
trolling an important link where
bridges would be impracticable. The
ice-challenging ferries ply the straits
Of Mackinac. the Detroit river, and
across Lake Erie from the American tc
the Canadian shore. They are huge
steel-shod craft weighing several thou
more than $350,000 each. Fitted with
propeller at either end, they crumble
the ice by the pressure of their bulk
as though it's three or four feet were
but the thickness of cardboard.
Whatever else is wanting, adventure is
not lacking in the lives of the men who
spend the months of snow aboard the
majestic monsters which are to the
lake tracks what the snowplows are to
the railroad lines. A few winters since,
with thermometer ranging from 18 to
80 degrees below zero, one of the car
ferries was caught in an immense ice
field on Lake Erie and foated around
for few months with great mass Of
ice piled mountains high around her.
A portion Of the crew was, of course,
obliged to remain aboard, and each day
a couple of the men made an attempt
not always successful-to go ashore in
order to secure provisions and supplies.
Outlines this meant a long, dreary trip
across the ice, and frequently, when a
yawning chasm of dark-hued water in
tervened between the shore and the
edge Of the ice field, the forager were
not able to return to their imprisoned
comrades for intervals of several days.
