HOLD CONFERENCE
TO CONSIDER NEW
LAW ON WEIGHTS
Especial to the Newark star

IOpGCiG4 u Az y 0AA--
TRENTON. Nov. Gas the result
Of a long conference at the State
House yesterday between DR.. William
H. Allen, of New York. and J. B. F.
Smith, assistant secretary Of state, a
bill will be drafted for submission to
the Legislature, 0esigned to meet the
situation disclosed by the recent re-
port of the Robert L. Stevens Fund for
Municipal Research. Dr. Allen is
director of the Bureau of Municipal
Research of New York. At the conclu-
sion of the. conference Mr.. Smith
agreed to draft the bill, which will then
be submitted to DR.. Allen and his as
sociates on the Stevens fund.
The bill as drafted by the assistant
secretary Of state will be subject. of
course, to such notifications as nay
be agreed upon by the members OF the
submission to that body. 1t is the
present idea of those interested in &C.
curing a new law to model the bill
after the New York statute, with such
notifications as shall be deemed
necessary to meet conditions in New
Jersey.
The Law in New York.
The administration of the law in
New York is placed in the hands Of a
separate State department. DIR. Allen
told Mr.. Smith that in this State this
plan might not be necessary, because
the administrative work could be ell
trusted to a bureau to be established
in connection with the department of
state, or the State Board OF Health.
DR.. Allen favored the latter PROPOSE
ton because the State Board of Health
already maintains a number of IN
spectors whose services, it was thought,
might well be utilized in connection
with the proposed new bureau. The
bill, however, will provide for such ad-
ditional inspectors as ma be deemed
necessary in view Of the increased
duties to be performed.
1t Is quite likely that Senator Prince,
Of Passaic, will be asked to introduce
the bill. He presented a similar meas
ure last q providing for a State de-
partment, but the legislation was not
enacted into a law.

ATHLETES OF OLDEN TIME
and Were Subjected to Very
Careful Diet.

Some interesting comparisons may
be drawn between ancient and modern
athletes. The athletes of ancient
Greece. for example, if they should
appear to view today, would not be
taken for a football team.
The old-time man of muscle wore
his hair cropped, distinguishing fea-
ture In a land of long hair. Trainers
for the games led a very careful life.
They were under orders for a rigid
diet, which became especially severe
just before the contest.
Their bill Of fare consisted OF fresh
cheese, dried figs and wheaton por-
ridge. A little later In the era meat
was allowed, with a preference for
beef and pork. Bread was not allowed
with meat, and sweets not at all.
At one time a strange custom Of diet
came into vogue. Every day at the
conclusion of practise the athletes
were obliged to consume enormous
quantities of food, which was digested
In long-continued sleep. The amount
was gradually increased until huge
meals of meat were taken. This diet
produced a coTpulence which was of
advantage in wrestling. but injurious
for other sports.

Where Men Are "Pretty."

, A British investigator is ungallant
enough to state that the reason why
women are as a rule of a beauty not
attained by man lies in the fact that
they are more indolent and not so
prone to exercise their brains" as
men are. Intellectual labors and as
siduous attention to business are, &C
cording to this authority. matters ex-
tremely prejudicial TO the develop
ment of physical beauty.
In support Of his theory this Briton
points to the Zaros, a tribe of British
India. Among them, it appears,
women hold the place that in other
countries is pre-emPted by men. The
ZarO woman manages the affairs of
state, engages in business on her own
account and does not restrict herself
in the narrow field of woman else
where. On the other hand, the Zaro
man has nothing to do but cook the
meals and look after the children,
The natural result of all this, says our
scientist, is that the men of this sin.
gular tribe are very pretty and the
women unusually plain

An Australian Plant Pest.

Just thirty years ago a lady at
Bright, Victoria, planted in her garden
a few seeds of ST. Johns wort sent
her from the old country. The lady's
intention was to have one or two of
the plants at hand for medicinal pur-
poses. The hardy weed, however. soon
spread beyond the garden, and before
anyone had grasped the magnitude Of
the evil it had been carried by cattle
along all the main stock routes and
jumped the Victorian watershed into
Gippsland. 1t has now completely ta-
ken possession Of something ike 20,-
900 acres of agricultural land, and the
agricultural department of Victoria is
spending thousands of pounds in the
endeavor to eradicate 1t, some Of the
methods tried costing nearly $50 an

Object to Slaughter Of Lions.

According to some of the farmers Of
East Africa, the lion should be pro-
tected as a useful animal, notwith-
standing the fact that once in a while
he kills a man. The lion, they main
tain, is a great destroyer OF noxious
herbivorous animals, such as zebras
and antelopes, which are a scourge to
the fields. In one district they say no
fewer than 46 lions have recently been
killed by hunters. and they estimate
that this represents the saving Of 35y-
900 to 10000 zebras and antelopes,
which would otherwise have fallen q
prey to the lions that have been de-
stroyed. OF course, the hunters shoot
zebras and antelopes, but this fact,
they think, does not counterbalance
the destruction OF those animals that
would have been effected by the slain
lions.

TIN A GOOD SOUND BARRIER
Germans Experiment With Telephone
Booth ConVinces Him it Should
Be Put in Walls.

Any one who in a telephone booth
has been disturbed by loud talking
outside, or some other noise to in
terTupt the electric conversation, will
be interested in an article in a Ger
man periodical, Der Gesundheitsinge-
nieur. The writer tells how he dealt
with this difficulty. He had been ma
king some acoustic experiments,
which convinced him that If a wooden
telephone booth were lined with tin,
all noises would be excluded. He
nailed sheets of tin on the wooden
walls. with the result that an expert,
who had laughed at his idea, was so
impressed that he forthwith proceed
ed TO construct a number of such
booths. Nor are telephone users the
only ones who may profit by this ex-
pertinent The writer referred to ap-
peals to architects to introduce tin, or
aluminium, in the walls of houses gen
orally, to deaden sounds. He is con-
vinced that if this were done the
neighbor's daughters piano and voice
would cease to be a disturbing factor
in life, except, of course, in summer,
when all the windows are open The
tin manufacturers may be trusted to
see to it that this plan is properly
pushed and advertised.

DANGER PLACES IN STORM
Bell Wires, Open Windows and Fire
places Should BE Avoided When
Lightning Is Flashing.

What is the safest place in a
thunderstorm? AS a rule the safest
place OF all is Inside a building which
is provided with perfect lightning
conductor. The conductor, however,
must have no defects. If it be broken
or have faulty earth connection it
is then a source Of grave danger.
In an ordinary dwelling house, un-
guarded as it usually is against light
ming, safe place is the middle of the
largest room, where one is away from
the walls. or still safer precaution
is to lie on an iron bed drawn out
from contact with the wall.
The most dangerous places in the
house, we are further told, are near
the bell wires, or an open window, or
the fireplace. Outside the house the
places of danger are proximity to
walls and buildings and iron fences.
Another danger is a crowd. The
vapor which rises from a crowd tends
to lead a fash toward the crowd. In
the open country one of the most
dangerous places is the bank Of a
river. Avenues of trees, lakes and
hedges are likewise dangerous.
If any one doubts the danger of a
hawthorne hedge let him take his
stand at a safe distance during a re-
spectacle storm and watch the effect.
The lightning will dart along the
hedge like sheets of fire. If the OBJ
server gets wet to the skin, so much
the better for his safety.

OF PROPERTY RIGHTS
How One Small Boy Was Cured Of
Destructive PropensIties by
Lasting Lesson.

Small boys are very apt to fail to
recognize the value Of others prop
erty. My small son, in company with
a playmate, in a game used the lights
in a neighbor's henhouse for target.
The owner of the damaged property
visited both homes, where the culprits
hid in dismay, and collected damages
Here was a valuable opportunity
for a lasting lesson. / called my boy
to me, and we talked the matter over,
he having full chance to explain his
side OF the case. Then the mischief
he had wrought and the reputation 1t
might give him were gravely dis
cussed.
He voluntarily offered to refund the
amount Of his part OF the damage out
of his small savings until full restitu-
ton was made. This was finally agreed
upon, and here came the hard part for
the boy. His pocket money allowance
was % cents a week, which was fire.

Brouuht Bees TO Earth.

A rather novel way of capturing a
swarm of bees was adopted in North
Hants. England, recently, where a
gamekeeper found that a rowing col
Ony had settled high up on a beech
tree fifty or sixty feet above the
ground in his garden. a man went
to his assistance and spread a cloth
on the ground on some hay just be-
meath the swarm. The keeper fred
a shot which cut away the bough from
which the bees hung from the tree.
They fell like bunch of grapes on to
the cloth, and a ''skep" was immedi-
ately placed over them. The swarm
weighed nearly five pounds, and the
bees appeared to be none the worse
for their treatment

curlositIss of Smell.

No substance that refuses to dis
solve in water has an odor. It is the
actual substance itself, floating in par
ticIes in the air, that appeals to the
nose, and not simply vibration of the
air, as in the case of light and sound.
The damper a thing is the more pow
erful the odor it gives off. A pleasant
proof of the fact can be had by walk
ing in a garden after rain. There is
no end to the curiosities of smell. It
is, for instance, the vapor of liquid
that smells, and not the liquid in the
mass. itself. If eau de cologne be
poured into the nostril the nose re-
fuses to recognize any odor there at

HERE'S A GOOD CHILD STORY
One Which Comes From the Family Of
Boston Educator and Has
Unusual Originality.

Perhaps the most startling child
story extant, however, comes from the
family of a famous Boston educator,
whose children all are distinguished
by an unusual degree. of originality.
Several boys and girls OF. various ages
have been adopted into this family, so
the sudden appearance of new and
well-grown associates seems to the
younger members quite natural This
rather unusual attitude toward family
growth worked out oddly a year or
two ago, upon the occasion of the
Christmas play, which the little ones
annually write, rehearse and produce,
quite without adult assistance, for
their parents.
The plot Of the play included the
financial redemption Of a highly wor-
thy couple-this being an extremely
cultured and sociologicaIly learned
yet natural group of youngsters
the good luck of tl& husband. played
by an eager urchin Of seven. in the
gold fields of Alaska. The happy
bridegroom returned to his weeping
bride Of a year in the nick Of time,
bearing with him a huge and heavy
bag OF gold. The bride, in a neat
speech, revealed to him the poverty
stricken, hungry straits to which she
had been reduced, and warmly COM
mended his skill and industry in gold
finding. Then, rising with proud
and modest air. she gently informed
him: And /, meanwhile, have not
been idle!"-and, drawing a convent
ent curtain, disclosed an assorted
group of laughing boys and girls as
Our children, dear!"
The audience, not unnaturally,
rocked with helpless laughter. but
those dear little lads and lasses still
are wondering why.

MENDING TROUSERS POCKETS
Mrs. BIEItops objects to the One In
genious Method That PIeases
Her Husband.

"As some sage has remarked" said
Mr.. Billtops, "the longer we lives the
more We finds out You take, for in
stance, the mending of a trousers
pocket that has a hole In it down at
the bottom, so that you are in danger
OF losing out of it your keys or your
pocket knife or such small change as
you may there carry.
Now 1 supposed there were Just
three ways of mending that pocket,
three and no more. One way would
be 10 put a patch on it, another way
woulo be to cut of the bottom of the
pocket and sew on a new section, and
still another way would be to put in
an entire new pocket; but the tailor
to whom I took these trousers to be
fixed up has shown me a fourth way
that made me laugh for its simplicity
and at the same time as l thought in
genuity.
'He just folded over the bottom OF
the pocket high enough up to cover
the hole, and then just stitched the
pocket across through the folded over
part and the main body of the pocket,
this you see something that could be
done In a minute ard that at the same
time served its purpose. l admired
it for its ingenuity and effectiveness,
but Mrs. Billtops doesn't look at it
as I do.
"She says that if it's a sloppy way
of mending a pocket, that it makes
the pocket shallower, for one thing,
and that then that folded over part,
making the pocket Of double thick
ness, makes a ridge there which is
not desirable. She says that she has
mended pockets that way herself, but
that it is not good way, and guess
she's right; she generally is"
