BITS FOR BACHELORS.

Many men think themselves self
made who are really marriage-made.
The man who avoids matrimony on
account of the cares of welded life
rivals the wiseacre who secured him
self against corns by having his legs
amputated.
Don't marry for beauty alone. Soc
rates called beauty "a short-lived tyr
amy" and Theophrastus pronounced
1t "a silent cheat" The man who
marries for beauty alone is as silly
as the man who would buy house be-
cause it had fine flowers in the front
garden.
1t is in life as it is with kite: it
will not fly very high until it has a
string tying it down. And so the man
who is tied down by half dozen re-
sponsfbilities and their mother will
make higher and stronger fight than
the bachelor who, having nothing to
keep him steady, is always foundering
in the mud.

CONCERNING CLOCKS.

Never allow the clock to run down.
It responds to regular attention just
as surely as a human being does ana
keeps its course truly when made to
follow its endless routine.
The hands of a clock should always
be turned forward. To set the hands
by reversing the right-hand motion il
to loosen delicate screws that hold
them within reach Of various cog
slips.
Never allow the clock to be moved
from the position where 1t is we'll bal
anced. A deviation Of two or three
minutes day from the correct time
may be the result of an uneven
placing of the clock, and once it is
properly adjusted it should not be
shifted for dusting or for artistic pur-
poses. This is especially true Of
clocks that have pedulum.

The jeweler took the gem, which

for moment. Then in a confidential
tone he said:
We'll, to tell you the truth, that
isn't very good stone. It hasn't much
fire, it is badly cut, and there is some
thing here very much like a flaw
Then he held the diamond under a mi
froscope and examined it carefully,
finally observing: mo, it isn't exactly
a flaw, but I shouldn't call it per-
pect stone. Now, ii you want some
thing really fine, here"
Excuse me- the other man inter-
rupted. Il don't think I'll buy a dia-

THE cADDY's COMMENT.
One That Was Not Very Compliment
tary to Professional
Player.

Walter J. Travis, the golfer, set up
his ball, and then made half a dozen
swishes at the short grass with the
driver, relates the New York Tribune.
Il am not in good form,'' he said, Il
am playing like a broker we had here
last week.
"This broker played once around,
making a dreadful exhibition of him
self. OF this, though, he was not
aware. He was doing pretty well for
him.
1.-The mans caddy was an unusually
quiet, stolid lad, a boy with freckled
face quite devoid OF expression.
"And since the caddy never once
laughed or sneered at his bad play,
the broker took fancy to him. And
he said at the end of the round, in
the hope of getting compliment:
I have been travelling for the last
six months. I am quite out of prac-
ttce. That is why 1 am in such bad
form to-day
'The caddy replied, calmly:
Then we've played before, have
ye, sir?'"

DIETARY D1cTA.

Dinner should be of lighter nature
in summer than in winter.
A quart of wheat contains more nu-
triment than a bushel of cucumbers.
There is happy mean between eat
ing everything and being squeamish.
Two pounds Of potatoes contain as
much nutriment as 13 pounds Of
turnips.
Light soups, light desserts and light
meals Should have the preference in
warm weather.
Vegetables and fruits are to be used
most generously at that season of the
year in which they naturally mature.
Beginning the dinner with soup is
the very best way to get the whole
system in condition for assimilating
q hearty meal.

q Invested in Amusement Parks.
The estimated Investment in sum-
mer amusement parks in this country
will reach a total Of $i5G, 100000 this
year, we are told by The Railway and
Engineering Review. Says this paper:
''The total number of parks is esti-
mated at 1000, and three-fourths Of
that number are controlled by and op-
Grated for electric railway lines. This
figure for the Investment seems high,
and the more SO when it is known that
the many small resorts, gardens,
groves etc., found in every locality
are not included. 1t is probable, how
ever, that the figure may be accepted
as representative, though 1t will corre-
spond more nearly to the advertised
cost of each specific resort rather than
the actual cost, the two sums fire.

CHICAGO PACKERS TO MOVE.
Location to Be in Indiana-City OmciaIs
Have Ordered Changes Made
in Present Builings.

Chicago, Ill.,-Rumors to the ef-
feet that a new stockyards with Sir
Thomas ]. Upton of London as its
chief hacker is to be established near
Gary, Ind, adjacent to the property
of the United States Steel corporation,
were in circulation Friday. Several of
the best known real estate men in
Chicago were named among those said
to be acquiring land for the purpose.
Although the story generally was
discredited among the packers, it was
declared that at least six plants are
to be removed from Chicago to In
diana. 1t is said the plans include the
digging of a canal to the little Calumet
river for the purpose of carrying off
refuse.
The building commissioner, Peter
Bartzen, and the sanitary commission
er, Perry L. Hedrick, served notice
Friday on the packers to make i'm
provements which it is estimated by
Bartzen will cost close to $1,000,000.
Bartzen declared that practically all
the buildings in the stock yards were
erected without city building permits.
He said he will ask the city council
to give him fifteen special inspectors
for a term of thirty days. The san1-
tary commissioner said the packers
are willing to adopt all suggestions
made by his department.
Mayor Dunno sent a letter to the
Secretary of Agriculture, James Will
son, urging him to give his views in
reference to the joint appointment Of
a committee of high grade pathologists
and experts to pass on the purity Of
meats sent out from the stock yards.
June the mayor sent Mr.. Wilson
telegram in regard to the matter, but
he received only brief telegraphic
reply.

CHARMS THAT BRING LUCK
Superstitions of Bridge Players
Houses and Seats That Are
Unlucky.

It Is now obvious that the portion o1
society which takes it's gambling seri-
ously-it is a very large portion in
deed-has become very superstitious
An instance in point is the buying OF
the ankh which, as now sold in Bond
street in gold and jewels, is extremely
popular, says the London Daily Mail
The ankh is the sign of life, and
consequently of good luck striving
against bad; a symbol of Egyptian
origin composed of a headless cross
attached to a stirrup circle.
Gambling has always gone hand in
hand with belief in the efficacy of
charms, but the fair votaries of bridge
go much further and there are end
less little ceremonies which are sup
posed to initiate for or against their
chance of winning.
A charming lady who might, with
out undue conceit, have styled herself
zone who knows" quotes an instance:
Whenever you cut for fresh deal
or after a rubber" she said, "the one
who cuts lowest has, as you know, the
choice Of cards and seats, and they in
variably turn the winning people out
of their seats and choose the winning
pack" Sometimes they elect to sit
against the hinges of the table, be-
cause that is the lucky side
AS. for the charms which are sup
posed to bring luck, their name is
legion; the most favored are little
dwarfs, lucky sixpences and the New
Zealand greensboro.
It must not be supposed that these
superstitions are confined to the
ladies. Two well known card players
at Whites are extremely proud of pos
sessing some pieces of hangma1's
rope, and from the possession Of these
trophies they date their good luck.
Certain houses are considered lucky
to play in, though Of course a house
which is lucky for one player may be
unlucky for the other. Particular clubs
also are much in favor among card
players.

But enough has been developed in my
judgment to call for immediate
thoroughgoing and radical enlarge
ment of the powers of the govern

enter into interstate and foreign COM
merce. Unfortunately the misdeeds
of those who are responsible for the
abuses we design to cure will bring
discredit and damage not only upon
them but upon the innocent stock
growers, the ranchmen and farmers
of the country. The only way perma-
nently to protect and benefit these in

ranchmen, is to secure by law tho

which I have asked. Sincerely yours,

The Sewage Problem.


Every great city and many large
towns are confronted with the serious
problem Of the sanitary disposition Of
sewage. The effect of the waste mat
ter of one settlement in the water-sup-
ply of its neighbor, not felt in wide,
thinly populated country, grows dan
gerous as communities by their In
crease approach one another. The
problem is complicated by the rapid
increase Of knowledge as to the sources
and the distribution of disease-germs.
Some seaboard cities pump their sew
age far out in the salt water, which
largely absorbs and reconverts the
dangerous matter or precipitates 1t to
the bottom. But some of the waste
poisons sea foods, notably oysters.
Cities on great rivers like the Missis-
sippi, observes Youths Companion,
send down polluted water to the cities
below. 1t does not always reach those
cities in a polluted state, for sunlight
and air kill the germs in flowing wa
ter, and at a certain distance, depend
ing upon the swiftness of the current
and the consequent extent of the ex-
posure of all parts of the water to
light and air, it is purified. Neverthe-
less, the only sure safety lies in the
absolute prohibition of discharge from
sewers into any lakes or streams with
water connections, however remote, to
sources of water-supply. 1t is wiser
to prevent pollution than to try to
purify polluted water by municipal
filtration plants. Prevention is better
than cure, in the proverbial relative
measure or any other, for prevention
is sure, and publication is not. There
is another side of the question. Sew
age is a valuable fertilizer. Long ago
Victor Hugo pointed out the riches
that the sewers of Paris were throwing
away. The discharge from great
city, properly treated, made into desi-
Gated fertilizer or pumped through ir-
rigation bitches into the surrounding
country, at a safe distance from
streams and lakes. enriches the soil
and at the same time is exposed to the
purifying effect of the sun. The bar
rem plains about Berlin have been
turned into rich farms by the city
sewage. Other European cities have
taken similar measures in the interests
Of health and economy.
