Dashboard of the local hotel while i'm
patiently waiting many hours for the
one train a day running in the direc-
ton he wishes to take.
The elimination of such lost time is,
of course, the most important service
an automobile can perform for the
salesman, but there are other excellent
features. The automobile will take
him to small towns not favored with
a railroad The trouble attending the
transportation of his samples from
railroad station to the sample room of
a hotel or to the stores themselves is
also a thing of the past If he travels
by automobile instead of by train, to
say nothing of the impression an auto
mobile makes on the storekeeper. A
fine example of a commercial travellers
special automobile is shown in this
Illustration. The seat is well protected
against storms by the hood and wind
guard, and the back part of the ma
chine provides ample storage space
for samples.

round Waterloo was lucky to score at
ell as the nan who brought in the two
runs was fairly struck out before his
hit came and in the second place the
Iclanders' signals got mixed with the
result that Kelly went to cover third as
the ball was cracked and it went right
past where he had been standing. The
Islanders came right back, however, in
their half Of the inning and were just
az lucky A base on balls for Davidson
and a two-sacker by Manusch put two
men on the circuit. Slattery grounded
to Better, who caught Davy at the plate
hut Stats was safe and he stole second
minute later. Then came the luck.
C'Leary grounded to Fremer and the
visitor booted the ball so that both
Manusch and Slattery scored. The Is
landers scattered out seven hits in the
next eight innings but failed to get
man across the plate although they had
numerous chances.
In the eleventh Chapman reached
first on Kelly's bad throw to first but
fell down between first and second and
was nipped. Kelly came right back
and erred on Collins hit and Long
drove him home after he had stolen
second. Manusch's throw to the plate
was ten feet wide else he would have
caught the runner. Long went to Sec
end on the play and scored on Ere
mer's hit to left. The Islanders could

ISOLATION the present season. Up to
a late hour last night no word had
been received from the ex-Dubuquer.
AS to reason for rendering his resig-
nation, Mr.. Buelow cites the knock
ing of the fans and the fact he has
failed to give the city a winning
team. That there has been a large
amount of dissatisfaction with Bue-
lows management of the squad there
can be no question. 1t has been
heard upon all sides. The team is in
the cellar position in the percentage
column. True, some team must be
there and the owners have sought to
explain away the situation by the
oft repeated assertion that the aggre-
cation had played in hard luck The
public has refused to accept this ex-

and when they come out of storage
and are exposed for sale they will
have an age of all the way from eight
to ten months; their distribution,
along with other eggs now in cold
storage, will of course, operate to
prevent "egg famines" here and there
that is. short supply and inor-
dinately high prices-but the question
of their effect on the public health is
of much more importance than the
consideration.
How long can ten-month-old egg
remain fit to eat after 1t is taken from
storage and comes into a normal tenn
perature? Does anybody know? These
questions are vital ones, because 1t is
on this point that cold storage legisla-
ton is going to hinge.
The bill recommended by Senator
Lodges high cost of living committee
sought to restrict the time that food
products shall remain in storage and
set the same limit on all such prod
ucts-eggs, meat, poultry, fish. fruit
and so on; and this proposal was. of
course, not a little ridiculous. Mani
testify, any practical legislation on
this subject must limit not only the
periods OF storage for food products.
but also the periods during which
they may be offered for sale after their
release. The question won't down"

unless imbued with piety and the
necessity for public worship.
The Chicagoans are manifesting
this religious spirit Just now in the
eagerness of the church-going to pro-
mote this practise among those who
pay little or no heed to It. The for.
mer are going about seeking out the
latter and finding why church attend

this movement is borne out by the
fact that $4,000 men and women are
engaged in it and that they have
reached 2,ooo, 900 persons. They find
that 100000 regularly attended church
and that $4,000 were irregular attend
