The decision Of the Interstate Com

a reduction In the rate on salt from
the producing district In New York
into Central Freight association ter
ritory is Of great importance to the
independent producers Of salt In this

Co. The international Salt Co., known
as the salt trust, brought In the peti-
ton, asking that the rates 10 inter
mediate points be adjusted on the basis
OF the rate OF 10 cents a hundred from
New York points 70 Chicago The De-
troit Salt Co. and the Sterling Salt
Co interviewed In the case and the
complaint was dismissed. The con-
troll Of the salt handling and shipping
facilities In Buffalo and Chicago by
the International company was q
large factor In deciding the case. as
II was claimed that this competition
had compelled the railroads 70 grant
the cheap rate to Chicago. This de-
cision will make II possible for the
Detroit salt companies to meet the
competition OF the trust In the local
market on favorable terms.

Dr.. {. H. R1rkharst. ii ! recsni
article sent out By the National
News service. says:
"A mans age is not ! matter 81
years, but Of wear and tear. One
person at SO is older than another
1t 20.
There is such . thing As tho arr
OF keeping young. A man Is after
all . kind Of machine, and how
long machines of the more ordinary
style will last depends . good deal
on the way in which they are run.
The Same is true of the human
machine. We ought not, therefore,
to lay too much stress on the num-
Der of years that happen to have
elapsed since we commenced living.
The average constitution will bear
just about SO nu b strain, and
when that limit has been reached
the thing slows down and stops.
I'VE are like an eight day clock;
we can tick and strike only 80
many times without winding. I'm
like . timepiece, however, we are
not susceptible to re-winding, unless
what we call resurrection is some
thing after that order.
People can keep the machinery
Of life in motion longer if their ex-
perience and activity have not in
them too much of monotony. A
pedestrian can walk more miles on
a road that is uphill and downhill
than he can on one that is level. It
is said that a horse will not wear
out as soon if he is allowed to travel
on a variety of roads, as he will if
like a tram Car horse-he has to
continue going backward and for
ward over the same route eveay day.
There are no workers more to
be pitied (and there are millions
of them than those whose one days
experience is the exact repetition Of
every other day. 1t is killing.
There is no sweeter service that
any one can render than to intro
duce into such lives a little touch of
variety, so that the heated bearings
will have a chance to cool and the
strained nerves an opportunity to
relax. It is like a bit of re-birth.
Even professional life is made
less consuming if it will vary itself
by the adoption Of some side inter-
est that shifts the pressure from the
accustomed spot.
How much more is this the case
With those whose life is the dull
and constant repetition of small and
embarrassing employment-tojay
the return Of yesterday, and to-
morrow certain to be today owe
again.
ITO vary such slavish lives by
the introduction of some congenial
change, and to season them by sug-
gestions that are of a different flavor
from that of their accustomed toll,
is one of the most Christian services
that can be rendered by those whose
life is less monotonous and weari-
some"

'Tn Cairo" said journalist. II
heard a queer yarn about the fella-
hin. The fellahln are the native ru-
rallsts. They are very poor. Well.
when the British built the Egyptian
state railway the officials we're as.
founded at the enormous quantities OF
train oil that disappeared. They knew
that all this oil couldn't be used for
lubrlcating purposes. so they made an
investigation and found that It had
become the staple food Of the poor
fellahin. The railroad detectives re-
ported that the fellahin all over
Egypt were using the Egyptian state
railways train oil as their chief sup
port. They buttered their bread with
train oil. They fried their fish in train
oil. They made a kind OF suet pudding
with train oil as a base They drank
train oil heated as a flesh producer or
builder up. So the railway officials
mixed castor oil with the stuff. and
the fellahin after years torturing
and vain effort 10 accllmate their sys-

LEST WE FORGETI
By EDWIN 4. NVB.

"What is there In life for a poor old
man who has been a failure? l lert
my cold room determined to end my
life; was going TO throw myself into
the lake. but as / crossed the Lake
Shore drive I saw ine automobile
full OF happy people. and thought I
would throw myself under the wheels
and find DEATH"
That was the tragic statement made
by George Sheyler OF Chicago.
MIR. sheyler Is sixty-three years old
and has been without work for some
time Day after day he was compelled
to get ITO the bread line" to keep
from starving.
Becoming morbid over the failure OF
all his plans 10 get on In the world,
Mr.. Sheyler started toward the lake.
AS stated. he changed his mind and
threw himself In front OF an automo-
bile.
BY narrow margin the driver OF
the machine succeeded IA steering the
car TO one side Of the old mans body.
Now
This incident. set down IN the news
papers. Is merely one Of the hundreds
such that happen IN Chicago and In
other cities. Old men and young men.
old women and young women-even
cbildren-dally seek some source Of
self destruction.
And mostly the despair comes 70
these unfortunates because Of failures
to find work and bread
Note this:
In Chicago this winter every effort
has been made to raise fund Of $780,
600 for the help Of the starving poor.
fThe Associated Charities says that sum
will fall far short OF the needs Of the
time
Meantime
II is estimated that Chicago people
spent in celebrating" the coming in
of the new year as much as half a
million dollars.
Many millions. OF course. were spent
for Christmas. but at least half a
million was expended for drinks. deco
ration and music-mostly drinks-be-
tween the evening Of Dec. 81 and the
morning Of Jan. 1.
Two hundred thousand dollars for
charity I'm one whole winterl Five
hundred thousand dollars In one night

And Chicago is typical Of other
cities.
Ever and ever do the George shey-
lers haunt the lake and the carbolic

Of their bodies they can ease theif
minds. and the Joy seeking sensualists
stupefy their minds that they may
enjoy the pleasures OF the body.

manuscript work known as the giant
Bible on account of it, extraordinary

which the book Is composed required
the skins OF 100 asses. There are two
columns on each page. and the book
contains the Old and New Testaments,
With extracts from Josephus. The
