Choosing the Strong Men
For the Markets of Paris

{ ganized and perform their duties like q
lswell drilled army. Each market is di-
Vided into gangs of STRONG men," a
foreman and assistant forman at the
head of each squad. A chief Is over the
foremen and then this little battalion
is watched over by the project of po-
lice. Police Commissioner Giuchard is
their general and decides all important
issues, such as, in this present case.
Judging in the examination of the new
recruits.
This corporation, if one may so call it,
cannot be put in the category of any
other workmen's organization. 1t is the
union of the afistocracy of labor for it
has existed ever since the reign of
Louis TX. who bestowed on them their
title Les Forts de Ia HalleS,'' n title
that antedates the marquises of the
Renaissance, for 1t dates from the year
1850. Many of these knights OF labor
have descended from ancestors who
can be traced as far back as the six
tenth century.
PERFECTLY PEACEFUL.
The men all act in perfect harmony
There is never any dissension among
them. neither do they discuss griey-
ances in public, indulge in strikes or
make themselves obnoxious by threats,
for imagined wrongs They are self
respecting citizens infevery way, but II
provoked by assault they can defend
themselves ably, as was proved one
night short while ago.
One of their number started for his
work at the Halles in the early hours Of
the morning. Finding himself ahead of.
time he stretched out on q bench which
was placed in a secluded spot on the.
street and soon fell asleep. Suddenly
/ he felt some one trying to steal his
pocket book. Instantly he was on his
feet facing two Apaches' the danger
Gus and murderous vagabonds of Paris.
They reached for their knives, but be-
fore they could attack him the strong
man" grabbed each one by the nape of
the neck and knocked their heads to-
gether again and again like two pup
pets In Punch and Judy show.

NARROW ESCAPE FROM DROWNING
Mr.. GooIrick Has Exciting Experience
at Atlantic City.

Mr.. c. O'COnOr Goolrick had a mar
row escape from drowning at Atlantic
City Tuesday. He was out swimming
and noticed two young women who
were some distance from shore. He
called the attention of young man
who was with him 20 them and lust
then the girls stepped in water over
their heads and screamed. Mr.. G.. and
the young man went 10 their rescue.
One girl became panic stricken and Mr..
g. and companion had a hard time
keeping her head above water. Some
men close by saw the trouble the two
men were having with the girl, but did
not go TO help them. A big breaker
turned the girl over, but she had a ter
rible grip on Mr.. G. Finally one man
went out just in time to keep both from
drowning and then the life boat ar
rived and the girls were dragged aboard.
Mr.. Goolrick started TO shore, but
being exhausted he could not make any
progress and was about to sink when
six Pennsylvanians saw him and went
TO his aid, without them he could not
have made the shore. Mr.. G.. was
taken to the hospital, but stayed only
80 minutes, soon recovering after TAX
ing whiskey and ammonia.
1t is believed the two girls would
have drowned if Mr.. G.. and companion
had not gone out and helped them.

TAFT FAVORS P.O.
SAVINGS BANKS
His Message TO Congress VIII
Urge Early Estimate.
THE LEADERS ARE OPPOSED

Would Put Matter In Charge Of the
Monetary Commission - President
Believes Hundreds Of Millions viii
Be Placed at Governments Disposal
Through Postal Savings Banks.
Beverly. Mass. Aug. 26.-President
Taft indicated in talks with callers
that in his message to congress next
December he will strongly urge the
early estimate OF postal savings
bank system. The president realizes
that there is strong opposition to such
legislation. and. while he does not pro
pose to rush congress. he will ask that
the platform declaration of the Repub-
lican party in favor OF postal banks be
fulfilled as speedily as possible.
Senate and house leaders are urging
that the matter be left over until the
monetary committee has made it's re.
ports and its recommendation dis.
closed. It is even argued that the 70.
lation between the subjects to be dealt
With by the monetary commission and
the postal banks il so Sose that the
should be handled together.
TAFT Sees the Benefits.
President Taft believes that several
hundreds OF millions would be placed
at the disposal of the government
through postal savings banks
II is suggested that this money
ndght well be employed In taking ul
the 5000 0O0. 900 or 500. 900 600 OF gov

outstanding and which have giver
much concern TO the treasury depart
ment. as already the per cent bond,
are selling below par. and there Is feai
OF further depreciation In view OF tn,
3 per cent issues which have been an
thorized and which soon may be pu
on the market.
BY placing the interest to be allow
ed by the postal banks at q small per
centage Mr.. TAFT is confident that nS
harm would be done 10 ordinary bank:
OF commerce. for discriminating per
sons who now place their moneys in
these banks and are appreciative OF
what these banks are doing for the
community would not withdraw money
drawing a high rate OF interest and
place IL under government care al
half the interest offered by the ordi
nary savings bank
President Taft expressed himself
again as he did so often before the
campaign OF a year ago. that he Is
unalterahly opposed to a guarantee OF
bank deposits.

Scientific Experiments With Food

Learned doctors writing on the hy-
giene OF food explain the great neces-
sity for eoagulating the outer SUR
face to save the salts, soluble albu-
mems, etc, from going from the meat
into the water.
But g. doubting German put the
theory to the test and found nothing
in 1t. He cooked joints, putting some
into boiling and others into cold wa
ter. He cut the joints into chunks
and so cooked the chunks. He even
divided the meat into small pieces
about the size of dice. And in every
case he found that the loss of juices.
etc. was Just the same, whether the
meat was put in boiling water or in
cold water.
No common-sense cook will pay the
smallest attention to the scientists
discovery, and for hundreds Of years
more in every kitchen throughout the
world joints win be religiously plung-
ed in boiling water.
1t makes one wonder how much of
what we believe is really true.
Another fal1acy upset by the same
man is the method OF making beef tea,
chicken broth and the like. To get
all the possible good out of the meat
