COP WAS MAN OF RESOURCE
Clean Sidewalk and Satisfied Cat Re-
suit Of Bringing Brains to Bear

It was a bad combinations hot
day. tired policeman. and a pail Of
chowder spilled on the sidewalk Of
Madison Square The policeman gazed
YEARLY at the overwhelming pool Of
hot and reeking chowder. The pass
ing pedestrians picked their way GIN
gerly round its outskirts or stopped to
look inquiringly at the helpless police
man. 1t was clearly within his
province. and after a few thoughtful
mops of his heated brow, he turned
and walked briskly off toward neigh
boring basement II looked business
like. and a crowd gathered to see him
cope with the situation.
A New York crowd is most easily
interested, and they stood in serried
ranks. waiting for the return of the
policeman with mop and pail He re-
turned even before they expected him.
but they had not reckoned on the re-
sourcefulness of the police force, for
under his arm he bore half-starved
cat of the summer-in-New-York vari-
ETY.. which he set proudly down in
front of the appetizing mess.
There were two "miaus" of strangled
ecstasy-then lap, lap! lap! accom-
panied by rhythmically waving tail,
and In five minutes the sidewalk was
immaculate and placid policeman
was leisurely making his rounds, fol-
lowed by satisfied and admiring

Dick What an absurd idea"
Listen Do you remember that

SET LIMIT TO PoLITENEss
Men Appear Willing to Be selfsaerI.
fcins In Most Cases Up to
Certain Point.

Man.. said a woman traveller, ZAP

II you go into a street car with q
friend and find the vacant seats all
scattered in singles man will get up
and change his seat so that you and
your friend may sit together. but in
the street car the seats are all alike
and he loses nothing by the change.
while in railroad car the situation In
different and one seat may be more
desirable than another. and there
lpolitensss may be less pronounced.
Let two women get together into
a parlor car In which their seats. the
best they could do. are apart. and
there a man may politely offer to ex-
change his seat for one of their two:
but there again the man loses nothing.
The real test comes when a lone wom-
an walks into situp car where all
the seats by the window are taken.
"She walks down the aisle to where
she thin'.s she'd like to sit and there
she takes seat. by the aisle. There's
q man by the window and he moves
over nearer to It politely to make
room for her. but does he offer her the
seat by the window? Not often. His
politeness In changing or exchanging
seats seems to be limited to such
changes as will leave him as well on
as he was before
But really. do you know. don't

FEDERAL HEALTH BUREAU.
American Health League Presents Ar.
guments-Pe Personal Hygiene Factor.

Showing that over Sl,500,000, 900 is eac
! year being lost to this country through
failure to check preventable disease, fact
and figures have been made public by tn
! American Health league, which is urginl
! congress to carry out President Taft's re
commentator for uniting government bu
reaus exercising health functions in ont
ment prepared by Prof. Irving Fisher
president of the league, it is pointed Out
that this enormous economic loss in life
and potential earnings can only be checked
by medical investigation, education on by.
giene and by improving the efficiency of
the municipal, state and national health
service. Within one generation the aver
age American life can be heightened Is
years by proper application of the science
of preventing disease, it is asserted
To conserve their vital resources by the
establishment of national health bureau,
is the most wise and far-sighted economy
for the people of this country, the Ameri-
can Health league declares, since statistics
show that at all times over 5000 900 per-
sons are seriously i'll in the United States
able. OF the 10000 lives that are lost
each year in this country through tuber-
culoss, at least 100000 could be saved, it
is shown, as the result of proper proven
tive measures and the proposed systema-
tiled activities by the federal government.
Though all the principal national parties
advocated in their platforms the estab-
lishment of federal health bureau in the
last presidential campaign, and the Ameri
can people as a whole have ever since sup
ported the project, it is rumored that some
opposition is now developing at Washing
ton from the same sources that are ar
rayed against every effort for the conser-
walton of the nations resources.
Perfect balance or work, play and sleep
is required in the ideal conditions of
health. Professor Fisher declares, in speak
ing of the conservation of life through
personal hygiene. Healthful environment
and nutrition are also urged upon every
American as a matter of prime importance

sources of the nation. The deadly effects !
