.AOTORMEN ARE
VERY RUDE

Transfers who cross the Wash
ington st. and other narrow bridges
are having 1t up and down with
motormen nowadays. They claim
the width Of the bridge allows them
no room to meet and pass with a
car crossing at the same time and
in consequence l or more teams are
compelled to jog along on the track.
II frequently happens that they are
ahead Of the car and what the
motorman remarks thereat Is cal
culated to hurt the transfers feel
ings.
For teamsters have feelings and
1t naturally affects them more or
less to hear uncomplimentary ref
erences that include even their an
cestors. They long to hammer that
whip stock. but the motorman rides
on serenely in his glass cage with
symptoms of blue and insulting
streaks waited out behind
Also it disturbs teamster to
feel his wagon butted suggestively
in the rear by an impatient trolley.
Especially does 1t disturb him when
there is no chance to turn out and
the motorman keeps promising TO
take off a wheel or 2 for souvenirs
or even to bust him up completely
unless he instantly remove himself
and load from ont the way forever.
OF course the teamster replies
gently to these insinuations mean
while keeping an apprehe:sive look
on his nags lest the rapcious motor
man grab off hindquarter in his
wrath. but so far the motorman has
had the best of it. He is backed
by a big corporation while the
teamster may owe stable rent, and
is filled with the notion that the
street car track and all the fullness
thereof belong to him. Rear views
of loads of wood or barrels Of lime
crawling along at a rate that con-
fuses his schedules contribute moth
ing to the motorman's peace OF
mind. Instead they fill him with de-
sires to leave such hindrances out
of sight and memory and these de-
sires he voices aloud in a way that
is not childlike nor Dland.
Wherefor the tender-hearted
teamster is apt to grieve the rest of
the day over the harsh and uncouth
things that assailed his hearing.
It's too bad.

BUTCHERS CLEAN UP

Yesterday Meat Inspector Bit
trick made another visit to slaugh-
ter houses and shops and noted a
marked improvement as a result
of the cleanup campaign recently
inaugurated. Bradley Bros. slaugh-
ter house in the school section was
marked o. X, and Miller Bros.
slaughter house miles southeast
of the city marked good. The Riv-
erside market was marked good
and the rooms fair. Repairs to the
floors and back room cleaning
were ordered at the Georgia mar
ket. The meat was marked good.
1t was Wilson's slaughter house
instead of meat market that was
ordered closed.

CAN'T GET FILTHY
CELLAR BAllED OUT

While 2 city departments are
busy laying the blame on each other
the basement OF the Cuba block al
the corner of Front av. and Ste
vens st. is flooded with foul water
which the occupant, c. e. Carr
| claims comes from sewer pipe
loosened by w. w. p. Co. blasting
done in front of the building.
Carr appealed to the city hall for
relief. The water department test
ed the mains there and found them
intact. City Engineer Mcintyre in
formed a complainant that it was
not the sewer. Carr got Council
men Gray, Phillips and Dalke to in
spect the premises and they agreed
with him that It must be the
sewer.
At any rate, the water is exceed
ingly foul and it is impossible to
pump it out. AS a result, Carr's
place OF business Is closed up and
he contemplates suing for damages.
The inmates of the Nagel hotel are
also exposed to danger of sickness
as the overflow has made the en-
tire location unsanitary. Carr has
applied successfully to the mayor,
health officer and city engineer
without securing relief.
City Engineer Mcintyre said:
George w. Rowles, superinten-
dent of sewers, has inspected this
basement and says the sewer is
away below it and is running free
ly. Therefore the flood could not
have come from break in the
sewer. | should advise Carr to find
out what is responsible for the
water in his basement before he

other than water, as wine, beer, tea,

water The body of a man or

about half barrel of water. This
is being literally steamed" out of
the body at the rate of six or seven
pounds, upwards of three quarts, a
day; and so, in addition to the
water contained in all solid foods
"a beefsteak is about three

Why are condiments, mustard,

AIR WON'T WORK RIGHT
THAT'S WHY IT STORMS
BY e. B. GARRIoTT
Professor Of Meteoroiooy, United
States Weather Bureau.

The general operation of the
laws that govern the movements OF
the atmosphere and the method Of
observing atmospheric movements,
may be defined as follows:
The earth's atmosphere may be
compared to vast aerial ocean
with crests or waves, troughs, or
depressions, cross currents and ed
dies. This ocean is subject to the
laws of gravitation, and, like the
aqueous sea, has tides that ebb and
flow with seasonal regularity.
If the surface of the earth were
level and composed wholly OF either
land or water, the aerial stream
would flow steadily and uniformly
without well-defined crests and de-
pressions, cross currents and ed
dies. Temperatures would decrease
uniformly from the equator to the
poles, and the general mass of the
air would be subject only to very
gradual seasonal temperature
changes. There would be no winds,
and no rainfalls. There would be
no lie on our planet.
But the earth's surface is not
level, and it is composed of land
and water surfaces that are differ
emily affected by the suns rays. In
winter the cold interior parts of the
continents are the seats of atmos-
pheric crests, or areas of high bar
ometer, and the mparatively
warm oceans are occupied by de-
pressions, or areas of low barom-
etric pressure.
In summer the reverse of this dis
tribution of atmospheric pressure,
as shown by the barometer, is pro-
duced. The interior portions of
the continents are warm, and the
ocean areas comparatively cool.
The moist and the desert areas, and
the elevated and low-lying parts of
the land surface also contribute to
differences in temperature, and the
lofty mountain ranges, like elevated

ARTICLE 2-WHYS AND WHY
NOTS OF EATING

Why are fried foods considered
indigestible? Because the fat in
which the frying is done, no matter
of how good quality that fat may
be, forms thin coating over each
particle OF food SO fried. Now,
neither the digestive fluids of the
mouth or those of the stomach can
act upon fat; and so the fat-in-
crusted food cannot be digested.
Fats are digested only by certain
agent known as "steapsin," which
meets the food in the intestines. BY
the time the steapsin gets into con-
tact with the fat enveloped food, it
has fermented--and that's indi-
gestlon
Sailed and "corned" meats should
be avoided, first. because they are
usually taken from an inferior part
Of an inferior--often diseased-ani-
NAL. and second, because the chemi-
Gals used to prevent the meat from
undergoing chemical change outside

MARRY YOUNGER
FOR HAPPINESS--THAT'S ALL

The many marriages Of Ameri.
can women celebrities to men Of
tender years has gwen rise to the
burning question of the early
foolish season.
Why?
We asked Marie Dressler to sit
for minute on the bench Of wis
dom and, as an impartial and
authoritative Judge, to give US
the reason.
This is what she wrote.
Here's her very note:
~ MARIE pREssLER
Why do women marry men who
are younger than they? Just be-
cause they are looking for happi-
ness, that is ALL Goodness me!
am not going to try it! l have yet
to see any married pair who looked
as II they were crazy with Joy, or
perfectly content with each other.
Nevertheless l do not deplore any
move a person makes II that per-
son thinks he or she will surely
find something in life worth living
for.
Did you say there was a rumor
that l was about to be detached
from the Simple Life am leading,
mean the Lonely Life? AS Presi-
dent Roosevelt would say, "Cut it
short" haven't the time in the
first place, haven't the money in
the second place, and l don't know
where the young man Is in the
third place. None has come to me
with any tender offerings, and
neither have thrown out a drag

Years ago as New England sea
captain was signing a contract at a
shipping office he was observed by
the official in charge to be writing a
string of names. 'Only sign for
yourself, cap'en," cried the officer,
mot for the whole crew." The cap
tain grilnly pointed out the head
ing-"Name in full"-and went on
writing his piece, which, when he
had done, the officer, after some
trouble in deciphering, found to
read thus: Through Much Tribula-
ton We Enter Into the Kingdom
of-Heaven Clapp." "Will you please
to tell me, Captain Clapp," said he,
with as demure face as his violent
inclination to indulge in hearty
laugh would allow him to put on,
"what might your mother have call

THREE QUEER CITIES.
Each One Is Built on Islands Con.
nected by Many Bridges.

neCtSO ny V'aHy SfiGSSSs
The city of Client, in Belgium, is
built on twenty-six islands. These
islands are connected with each 9TH
er by eighty bridges. The city has
800 streets and thirty public
squares. 1t is noted for being the
birthplace of Charles Y. and John
of Gaunt, whom Shakespeare called
''time honored Lancaster" and as
the scene of the pacifcation OF
Client, Nov. s, 1876, and of several
instructions, sieges and executions
Of we'll known personages. 1t is as
ISOLATED with American history by
the treaty made there Dec. "a, 1914,
terminating the second war between
England and the United States,
known as the war of 1912.
Amsterdam, in Holland, is built
on piles driven far below the water
into the earth. The city is inter
sected by many canals, which are
spanned by nearly 800 bridges, and
resembles Venice in the mingling
Of land and water, though it is con-
siderably larger than that city. The
canals divide the city, which is about
ten miles in circumference, into
ninety islands.
The city of Venice is built on
eighty islets, which are connected
by nearly bridges. Canals serve
for streets in Venice and boats,
called gondolas, for carriages. The
bridges are, as a rule, very steep,
rising considerably in the middle,
but have easy steps. The circum-
ference of the city is about eight
miles. The Venetians joined the
Lombard league against the Ger
man emperor and in Ivy gained a
, great victory in defense of Pope AL
exander III. over the fleet of war
! vessels headed by Otto, son of Fred
erick Barbarossa. In gratitude for
this victory the pope gave the Doge
Ziani ring and instituted the world
famous ceremony of ''Venice Mar
rying the Adriatic Sea-" In this
ceremony the doge, as the chief
ruler of Venice used to be termed,
with appropriate ceremonies drop
ped ring into the sea every year in
recognition of the wealth and trade
carried to Venice by the Adriatic.
