1T PLEASEs THE SERVANTS
Berlin Police Arbitrarily Fix the Sums
They Shall Be Allowed for
Food.

Another instance of the way in
which the Berlin police authorities in
terest themselves in every detail OF
the private life of the city's inhabl-
tants is afforded by decree just is
sued by the police president which
arbitrarily fixes the sum per day
which is. to be allowed for food to
domestic servants during their en-
ployers' absence in summer
The term domestic servant" in
cludes everything. from the maid Of
all work OF the small household to the
butler. with all his retinue OF lesser
lights. in the house OF the rich. and
the decree lays down that each man
servant shall receive daily allow
ance of 80 cents and each maid ser
want 80 cents for food during the
whole time OF their employers alb
sence.
The new police regulation has been
greeted with more delight by the
servants than by their employers. es-
pecially among the middle classes,
where the domestic servant problem
in Germany is already acute enough.
Although the amount of the daily al
lowance cannot be considered as exs
cessiye in relation to the present
prices of food. when 1t is remembered
that the ordinary wage. which in Ger
many is anything from $3.50 per
month upward for the average domes-
tic servant. has also to be paid dur
ing the employers absence, It will be
seen that the new regulation will
mean a considerable item in the
reckoning of the middle-class family
about to start on its summer vacation.

nial tale until he explained that he
was the son OF a Swiss hotel keeper.
Now the long and severe Swiss win
ter has been turned to advantage.
and even when the great, blue lakes

Artificial Sponge.

An artificial sponge. the outcome Of
German ingenuity. is now to be had,
according to the Scientific American.
The process of making It consists
principally in the action Of zinc
chloride on pure cellulose. This re-
suits in a pasty, viscous mass. which
is mixed with coarsely grained rock
salt.
Placed in, a press mold armed with
pins the mass is pierced through and
through until 1t appears traversed by
a multitude of tiny canals. like the
pores of a natural sponge. The ex-
cess of salts is subsequently removed
by prolonged washing in a weak al
coholic solution. The artificial sponge
swells up with water but hardens on
drying, just like its prototype; 1t is
said to be eminently adapted for fl,
tering water for sanitary or Industrial
uses and It can be employed for all
the purposes that are usually assign
ed to the genuine article.

DODGE THE POSTAGE STAMP
Foreign Countries Devisins Schemes
for Benefit of Large Users
of the Malls.

Any man who can devise a practi-
cal substitute for the postage stamp
viii deserve the gratitude of every
large business house in the world. and
may earn a large fortune. For the
labor of affixing stamps to their enor-
nous mail necessitates in some firms
the employment of a special clerical
staff.
In the postofices OF some countries
steps in this direction have already
been taken. Here. for instance. news
papers and magazines are mailed by
their publishers in bulk without
stamps, and the postage is paid in a
lump sum of one cent a pound. Then.
again, some firms that send out large
quantities OF circulars register them
selves under a certain number at the
postoflice. their envelopes are printed
with this number and the circulars SO
mailed are paid for in bulk. In Ba-
varia large consignments Of letters
may merely be postmarked by ma
chinery and sent without stamps. the
postage fee being paid in a lump sum
at the time of mailing. It is said that
since February /. 1910, this system
has saved the Bavarian postofiice the
expense for paper and the printing
cost for 100000 stamps
A writer in the Umschau. a Ger
man publication, suggests further de
velopment of this system along the
lines of a meter, like those used for
water, gas and electricity, in which
the letters would be placed and auto
matically stamped with a postmark.

HARD BATTLE FOR THE Dog

Z +. suAered Severely In the
Combat.

meeting death himself. Sport, mo

W. M. Butterbaugh, q rancher living
in Lemp's Gulch. Idaho. killed . bob
cat that measured six feet from nose
to tip of tail.
The dog was terribly scratched and
bitten and has not yet entirely recov-
cred. He was mauled by the long,
sharp claws of the big cat and in some
places the scratches are deep, dig
cling clear to the bone. The cat would
weigh half again as much as the dog,
and lowered above him in height.
Mr.. Butterbaugh did not see the
fight, but arrived on the scene short
ly after the dog had killed the cat
and found his faithful friend lying on
the ground, unable to move, and
scarcely living. 1t looked at the time
like bad case, but he succeeded in
nursing the animal back to life.
For some days We had been miss
ing chickens" Mr. Butterbaugh said,
"and / was unable to figure out what
was killing them. Iwould get up in
the morning and find one or two lying
dead in the barnyard, still warm, and
l could not tell what sort of an animal
was doing the mischief
But Sport figured 1t out, and one
morning l heard him take out after
something. / got up as soon as could
and followed up the gulch, expecting
that they would take that trail When
got there l found the dog lying on
the ground and the big cat dead.

was settled. And from the looks of
