Chicago Motor Club Builds a Hill
for Climbing.

The only hill ever constructed especially
for a motor car climbing contest in this
country. and maybe in the world. viii be
given its first public trial on Friday. Sep

Algonquin, H., fifty miles from Chicago,
and which is regarded a of nationaI i'm
portanCe.
The hill has been named Algonquin. in
honor Of the town, which has built the
climb Tor the Chicago Motor Club and
which has just completed it. In the past
Worcester. Mass and Minneapolis have
talked of building hills for contest pur-
poses. but ii has remained for the Chicago
Motor Club to be the first.
The Algonquin hill will he only part of
the DAYS show ior the Chicago CLUB is the
originator of the double climb, one in the
morning from standing start and the
other from flying start in the afternoon.
In the past a natural hill has been used
for the standing start but this has been
stopped because of the annual row with
Dundee County which is far from friendly
TO the motorists. That's the reason for the
building of the new road. which has just
been completed. The new slope is so much
sleeper than anticipated that it has brought
about revision of the programme. and
the flying start climb will take place on
Algonquin hill and the standing start on
Phillips hill
No one will make Algonquin hill on high
gear-that's clearly evident now. 1t is
grade that will require the use of the inter
mediate gear. and no fast time will be
made. ~ an with flying start. 1t is about

Babies

Prof Irving Fisher of Yale university
has been studying the baby question
from the standpoint of economies, says
a popular newspaper---His conclusions
are t, is stated in terms of value:
An eight-pound baby worth at birth
1902 a pound
Value of the American baby crop of
1909, $3.50, 100000.
Estimates 100000 babies die who might
be saved with proper care.
Expenditure of $40 per child figured as
cost of saving life in most instances.
Loss of nation by childrens deaths es-
timated at $3.50, Oc00ee ~
Eminent English eugenists say nine
tenths of children are born healthy
Childs value based on earning power
of average man under modern condi-
tons.
This presentation of the case is doubt
less based on such admitted facts as
these: Every grown-up person was once
a baby. The baby that dies will never
be a grown-up person. A nation will
fall into decay If its-Hative-born popu-
latfon stops increasing. Therefore thriv-
ing baby population is the most valua-
Bic asset a country can have.
Is this cold-blooded and commercial
view to take of the little darlings? Pos
sibly. But it is a correct view, and the
mother-love side of the question will take
care of itself. Meanwhile. may the stock

OLD-TIME CHOWDER.
A reader of The Age-Herald calls atten-
ton to the fact that newspapers a CEN
fury and more ago were addicted to pub
fishing recipes. She encloses recipe that
originally appeared in Boston papSr.
dated 1751. 1t is for connection fitting,
ly called Boston chowder, and in verse
form. The recipe runs as follows:
First. lay come onions to keep the porl
from burning;
Because in chowder there is no turning
Then lay some pork in slices very thin;
Thus you with chowder may begin.
Next lay some fish Tor clams) cut crosi
wise very nice;
Then season well with pepper, salt al
spice;
Parsley, sweet marjoram, savory ah
thyme.
Then biscuits next-which must be soaRd
some time.
Thus, our foundation laid, you will be
able RI
To raise a chowder high as Tower of
Babel. q +
For by repeating DER the same agah,
You may make chowder for thouand

Coming as her debut does, almost stimuli
taneously with that of Nine. Mazarins in
the role, at the Manhattan opera in New
York, her triumph is of double interest.

From the moment the maid servants

heard within of Elektras young de-
fender, and Elektra herself, in the grim

slowly down the stone steps into the

dance at the operas end, Nine. Walker,
with almost superhuman energy, real

culiar are the method of distributing the
water through the grove and the appli-
cation of moisture to the root area.
In brief, the Drennen irrigation project
consists of raising water from an un-
e:Shaustible lake by means of a gasoline
engine and a centrifugal pump into a ce-
ment stand pipe. which is located on the
highest point of the land to be irrigated.
Tie water to be distributed therefrom
throughout the grove in underground ce
nent pipe conduits, which reach all con-
trolling ridges and points of elevation in
the grove and applied to the surface by
means of a system of graded burrows and
chaen.
The methods of distribution and appli-
catiop here adopted are practically the
same as have proven successful in the
sandy soils of southern California.
The Drennen irrigation plant is SO con-
structed that accurate data can be OBJ
tanned as to the amount of water used per
acre, Fer year, for irrigation and study
be made of the time and quantities applied
with regard to the rainfall, cultivation,

Don't Marry on Sunday

The Inflated Mary, Queen of Scots
married Boutwell, in May, and superstit-
ious Scots say that she east an evil
eye upon all marriages in this month .
hence they say it is only bad women who
marry in May, Gnd Sir Walter Scott also
says: 1.-The Scottish people. even of the
better rank, avoid marriages in the month
of May"
But the May superstition really origi-
mated with the Romans and the Chinese
absolutely prohibit all marriages in May
that month being devoted exclusively
to "courting' CT wooing.
Sunday is entirely blotted from the call
endar of marriage days. Friday, by most
people, is looked upon as an unlucky
day for any venture, yet in Scotland Fri
day is considered particularly lucky
day-"best day of all" "wednesday the
best day of ALL says the doggerel, and
is more honored by Hymen than any
other day of the week. Tuesday is con-
sidered fairly favorable, but state we'd
dings seldom occur on Monday. In Scan
dinavia Thursday is considered the day
of Ill omen, corresponding to our Fri
day.
THE better the day the better the deed
seems not to count as regards weddings,
and Sunday wedding is usually the re-
suit of expediency, and is devoid of all
those picturesque features of bridesmaids
and best men; flowers and sentiment.

Government Aid in Irrigation

In the report of the secretary of the

to the farmer:
"rie recent years of drought in various
sections of this country caused farmers

reni entirely upon rainfall for the ma
turing of their crops, and are calling upon
the department for information as to
methods of securing and utilizing water
supplies for irrigation. In response to
this demand an expert has been detailed

time to a study of eastern conditions and
the adoption of western irrigation meth

One of the most interesting and bene-
fcia corporations that the government
has taken up in the south is with DR..
Charles Drennen of Orlando, Fla, in the
irrigation of 70 acres of citrus fruit land.
The bremen grove is located three miles
south OF the city of Orlando, along the
Atlantic Coast Line railroad.
This irrigation experimental plant will
attract particular interest because of its
radical departure in design from the pop

Wedding By Proxy

Fraulein Anna Hirsch of Linz, Austria,
had a legacy left her by an uncle on
condition that she should be married be-
fore her twenty-f1rst birthday. Her fiance
Carl Burgruber, a wine dealer, was away
in Smyrna when he heard the news, but
as his business prevented him from re-
turning to Europe before March, and as
the girl was to attain her majority at the
ctded that there should be a marriage by
proxy. Accordingly, Fraulein Hirsch was
married in this manner last Sunday the
bridegroom being represented by friend
appointed by her fiance
She was thus legally entitled to enter
possession of her fortune, but she was
not to remain bride long. Yester
day, while she was engaged in preparing
her new home, she received a telegram
announcing the sudden death of her hus-
band.

Lent, 1910

Paul West, in New York World.
At last It's Lent, and now content
Comes DER us, calm and sweetI
For while It last we all may fast
And stint ourselves on meat
No more we may three times a day
Devour chop, roast or steak;
By might and main, we must abstain
And Of less flesh partake.
In othe years we've fought with tears
Such rules and laws severe,
But now we yield. our Joy revealed
With ill-dissembled cheer.
For, OBJ each steak that we forsaks
(To MUNICH instead a crust)
Is one less sale, which fact we hail,
That might enrich the Trust.
Each time a chop or roast we drop
We've struck the Trust q blow;
For forty days we've many ways
To fill the Trust with woe.
So fill the dish with humble fish
And at the butcher 5eer.
Oh, what content II only Lent

Simpliied Spelling Awry

i A letter published Tuesday with Mr..
Andrew Carnegie's name signed to it will
interest and amuse those who favor SIM
plifed spelling and those who regard 1t
as an absurdity. Sometimes Mr.. Carne-
gle spells his words according to the
''simplified" way, which is a go-as-you-
please style at best. but at other times
he forgets himself and spells the words
correctly His letter deals with Secretary
Of State Knox, and Mr.. Carnegie calls
him Knox, like that. whereas he should
have referred TO him a. Mr.. Nocis. And
iFhils Mr.. Carnegie carefully spells the
