TO MAKE SALT RUN.

1t was damp day, when evil spirits
hold high carnival. Many things went
crosswise under the spell of their
witchery but they exercised particu-
larry baleful influence on the salt,
which clogged and stuck, and, in spite
of vigorous shaking and pounding, re-
fused to sift out of the boxes. All the
lunchers in a Broadway restaurant
found themselves handicapped by this
aggregation of seasonable particles.
One woman alone solved the problem
of sailing her food properly. She, aft
er repeated attempts to dis1odge a few
grains. drew steel hairpin from be-
meath her hat. cleared the perforations
In the top Of the shaker, stirred the
salt TO a powder and proceeded to
season her vegetables.
The man opposite sat amazed al this
truly feminine expedient for running
the universe. Once he seemed on the
point of demonstrating, but he thought
better of it and went on eating in
silence In fact, everybody remained
silent except a fat man at a nearby
table. He brought his face into alarm
ing proximity to a plate of steaming
soup and gurgled softly:
wen, I'll be darned!"-New York

CROSS or SILVER
SHOWN IN MEETING

Philip Henry Dodge addressed the
Y. NJ. q, "A meeting in the club rooms
of the p. T. Co. yesterday on the
Gross" He held up little silver
cross. saying that it had come as a
gift from an Indian tribe. Twenty
years ago a request came from an old
Indian woman to a conference in New
York of which Mr.. Dodge was a mem
Der, that the white man should pray
for the Indians at sunset every day.
Mr.. Dodge has conforned to the re-
quest for 20 years and now he felt that
the cross which he held in his hand was
a sign of the result of his prayers. He
told other pretty stories to illustrate
the meaning of the eross-love and
sacrifice fo- others.

HOW TO AVOID THE DANGERS

HOW TO AVOID THE DANGERS
OF A COLD.-Everyone must realize
the dangers attending severe cold.
and that it is always prudent to re-
main indoors until the danger is pass
ed. Many, however, do not feel able
to lose the time and will be interested
in knowing that a severe cold may be
broken up and all danger avoided by
the prompt use of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. It not only cures, but cures
quickly and coanteracts any tendency
toward pneumonia. For sale by all

The Pacifics bested the Punahous in
the first game to the tune of 1913, al
though the score does not indicate the
closeness Of the contest Up to the
eighth it was anybody's game, but in
the latter half of that inning the Puma
hous went to pieces. The slaughter
continued until the Pacifics had piled
up six runs and landed the game high
and dry. In the ninth the Punahous
went out in one, two, three order.

Antiques Are Horrible

antiques Are nOTTiDlG
under certain conditions. We refer to
antique pieces of furniture. Antique
furniture is horrible unless in good re-
pair. The islands contain hundreds of
homes which have pieces of furniture
that reached here in the early days.
Some of this came from the famous
old cabinet makers of the continent of
Europe. More of it came around the
Horn from New England. The makers
of this furniture are long dead. But
today their work is termed antique"
and is highly priced, not alone because
of the magnificent hand workmanship
displayed, but also because of the
curious designs and patterns shown in
the furniture. Possibly you have some
of this furniture. The chair seats may
look ragged and the polish of the wood
work dim and unattractive. Possibly
you have sent some of it, on account of
its raggedness, to servants quarters.
You should dig it up now. Remember
that this old furniture is very valuable.
Remember that the woodwork as a rule
is as sound as on the day the article
was made. The upholstering needs to
be done over, paint scraped off the
woodwork and repolished-then you
have new article, with the added adj
vantage that it is extremely valuable
and of unique pattern.
We do this work. Our skilled furni-
ture repairers have for over, twenty
years been putting polish on furniture
and putting it on too in. a manner that
suits this climate.
We will be pleased to give you an
estimate

When the public schools of this city open their
doors to mora than half million pupils this
morning. almost one-quarter OF the entire num-
be- of children will be without proper accommo-
datiors. The latest indications are that between
3OOc0 and 10000 scholars must be placed ir part
time classes indefinitely. To provide properly for
these children, about s1ty-fve thousand new sit
rings must be provided in the right places This
morning. Will find 1890 sittings ready for occu-
pancy. and 100 will be ready lats this
month, but these sittngs are scattered all around
the 1--WE boroughs. many in localities where they
are entirely unnecessary.
There more than 5000 sittinGs in
course Of construction which will be opened be
tween October of this year and February 1906; 5000
10 be ready before the next school term begins.
These 5000 sittngs sufficient TO relieve $4,000
children from part time. while. II falls in

hundred thousand children waiting for proper ac-

The part time situation is bound TO grow con-

said. THE Board of Estimate and Apportionment
refuses to advance money for new schools until we
state the number OF children we are to have with

number Of children will have until show

Many important officials of tho Department Of
Education seem convinced that some change in th7
system OF providing new schools is imperative
The Building Bureau is hampered on every side by
conditions that effectuclly tie it down Builders
admit that in the business world where men and
not city departments deal. structures far
complex than schools erected in half the time
taken for the building of schools. Many plans
have been tried with the object OF untwning tho
