Madame indicated her hips.

Why, knocked-kneed women

CITY PAYROLL
STILL GROWS

Before elected to office Commits
sioner Roys openly declared that
if elected he expected to assist in
cutting the city's expenses at least
100000 a year.
Instead they are leaping higher
and higher. The July payroll to
be paid Friday is $603.S5 higher
than that for June and is still
growing. 1t is $S,5S4 more than
the July payroll last year which
Roys and other asDirants for Of
fee last spring declared was out
rageously high.
The big salary boost, the dis
charging of experienced and eff
ficient men i'm the departments
and employing at increased sal
aries fellows who have to expert
ment and learn the business is
showing in the disappearance of
the taxpayers money.
The only department that is
making showing for economy is
that of Mayor Fawcett. He has
cut off several hundred dollars a
month off his department of sani-
tation.

A LIVELY CORPSE

ATLANTA, Ca, Aug. a. Ar
thur Meacham, a Spanish war vet
eran, claims to be alive, while the
government says that he's dead
and offers to prove it by show
ing the tombstone it erected over
his grave at FIT. Thomas, Ky.
Meacham says that during the
war he was taken i'll with typhoid
fever, and with several others,
was sent to FIT. Thomas. En-
route the tags with the names OF
Meacham and another man were
changed.
When the other man died they
buried Meacham-or, rather the
man who wore Meacham's tag.
Incidentally he wants $135
which he says the government
owes him, but the government
says that 1t spent that much for
his tombstone.
Meacham comes back with the
statement that he can't eat the
tombstone and that he's hungry,
neither of which is denied by the
government, but they cannot get
over believing that he's a dead
one."

They are all confident that she

ing grooves of change for some
little time at least.
II they could only agree on the
question as to whether she looks
her age or not, or as to just how
she looks her age, then folks
might get some figures worth
while, but as long as the best
guess must hedge by specifying a
leeway of $4,000, 900 years, most
folks will doubtless find more
amusement in guessing as to
whether the Athletics can keep

When it becomes necessary, he

on this line If the city insists on
the technical terms of the fran
chise being enforced.
City Attorney Stiles says no
such scheme will be countenanced

Isn't Mother Earth the Coy Old Lady?
Won't Tell Her Age; Keeps EN- Guessing
BUT SHE'S OLD ENOUGH,
GOODNESS KNOWS MAYBE
100000, MAYBE 100000
ACCORDING TO THE LATEST
GUESS.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 2.
This old earth of ours is as coy
and deceitful as any maiden lady
when 1t comes to the matter of
telling her age. She simply won't
tell in plain figures, so that any
common mortal can understand,
SO for generations scientists with
exceedingly wise noodles have
been having a guessing game with
Mother Earth's age.
The latest guess comes from the
Smithsonian institution. Frank
Wigglesworth Clarke and Geo. F.
Becker of the U. s. geological sur
vey have worked out the guess be-
tween them. Mr.. Clarke in a bull
letin, entitled ga Preliminary
Study Of Chemical Denudation''-
whatever that is-and Mr.. Becker
under the plain caption, 1.-THE Age
of the Earth"
And the guess is:
Not under 100000 years.
Not over 10000, 900 years.

illogical ehronologist who once fig

This scientific prying into the

alleged to have been a great aston
omer, figured out a way to find
out how old the world was by
finding out how old the ocean was.
He concluded that If he could find
+ out how much salter the ocean got
each year he could easily figure
out how long 1t had been since
the ocean was perfectly fresh
ocean, right off the creative reel.
But he found he couldn't find out
how much saltier the ocean got
every year, so he had to give it
up. Just as well. The guess of the
man who would make a fuss over
such pale apology for a comet as
the late lamented luminosity that
gum-shoed across our corner OF
space wouldn't be much OF guess
anyhow.
About so years ago Lord Kei-
vim undertook to make the
