The Rev. DR.. Shaw went to England
several weeks ago to attend the inter.
national congress of suffragettes. Lat
er she held a conference with the
Duchess of Marlborough and also with
Mrs. Belmont, all of whom discussed
the movement for equal suffrage in
this country at some length.
Mrs. Belmont told me that woman
suffrage appealed to her very much, "
said Mrs. Shaw; "as a matter of fact,
Mrs. Belmont has already aided the
suffragetteleaders abroad. She told
me that on her return to this country
in a few weeks she intended to help
the suffragettes of this country finan-

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, June T.
Mayor Frank p. O'Brien has tipb,.
ened the lines in the sanitary wor;
OF the city, and has begun a very close
campaign for the protection of the
public food One of the first moves
was a rigid inspection of the fruit
stands of the city, where conditions
were found to be far from satisfac-
tory.
Mayor O'Brien and Health Officer
Hardness have dug out the old screen
ordinance passed several years ago.
which prohibits leaving any foodstuff,
uncovered outside of a building, and
makes protection of food from flies
and dust compulsory, no matter where
it may be.
Under this law every fruit vender
could be arrested, but the city is going
about it in a common-sense manner,
and will give them all time to remedy
conditions. Health Officer Hardness
and Building Inspector Matthews have
gotten up a carefully planned draw
ing for the guidance of the fruit men
The stands all over the city will have
to be remadeled, so that sliding glass
doors will protect the stuff from dust

In the same manner careful in

made. Several restaurants have been
warned Open fruit and vegetable

given a few days to comply with the
law. Sanitary Officer Burson has
written letter to all the bakeries
in the city, instructing them TO close

THIS LOOKS VERY EASY.
How Cold Is Twice as Cold as TWO
Degrees Below Zero?

The weather and the sudden change
of fifty degrees were being discussed by
several wide-awake young Burlington
ians yesterday evening, when one of
them pulled the following, FROM the
"Yellow Strand" on the others. 1t is
supposed to be conversation between
two Thermometers:
Fahrenheit: How cold is twice us
cold as two degrees below zero?
0entigrade: Why, four degrees be-
low zero.
Fahrenheit: Then how cold is twice
as cold as zero?
Centigrade: Let me see, why don't
know, would it be two degrees belo "?
Fahrenheit: Try this one. How cold
is twice as cold as thirty-two degrees
above zero?
Centigrade: Why, that's easy, it
would be thirty-two below zero.
Fahrenheit: Then how can it be that
thirty-two degrees below zero would be
twice as cold as thirty-two degrees
above zero, when according to your first
answer, four degrees below zero is twice
as cold as two degrees below zero?
Centigrade: give it up.
Since Centigrade finally gave it up,
can any of our readers answer the orig
inal simple question, "How cold is twice
as cold as two degrees below zero?"
Is it four degrees below? If it isn't,
why isn't it, and what is it?
The problem had been sprung short
time ago, and the "Yellow Strand" had
received several replies. pupil of a
st. Louis high school sent a diagram
and based her calculations on the Gen.
tiprade standard Of heat and meaSnre-
ments. She has taken 273 degrees or
27s degrees below o. Centigrade, as
absolute 0. DeductiAg degrees from
this gives her 27l by "twice as cold" is
meant "half as hot" she has then di-
vided I'll by 2, which gives her 1853 de-
grees below 2 degrees below 0 Or 1877.
degrees below 0. Hsa @1B7
The following were received from one
correspondent:
GLOW cold is twice as cold at 80 de-
grees above 0? Answer zero.
"How cold is twice as cold at de-
grees below 0? Answer degrees be-
low O."
Another writes:
at is impossible to tell you how cold
twice 2 degrees below 0 is, but can
tell you what one-half as hot as 2 de-
grees below 0 would be. If you will
consider you will find that you cannot
work with positive and a negative
quantity. Instead of degrees below
0 "cold," it would be 522 degrees "hot"
Tor warmer than absolute o."
Still another says that twice as cold
as 2 degrees below 0 is 263.63 degrees.
Fahrenheit above absolute 0, but does
not say how these figures were obtained.
