Lack of Homes for Rising Generation
Serious Problem for British
Couples Wait Years.

London.-The Chelmsford laborer
who was forced into workhouse be-
cause there is no cottage procurable
is no isolated victim of the dearth OF
rural houses. 1t is quite a common
thing in the country for marriages to
be postponed for years solely owing to
want of houses.
Close to Dunmow is notorious
marriageless district, and in spite OF
a number of would-be village bene-
diets. In a number of Huntingdon
shire villages engagements of ten and
fifteen years duration are common.
The couples either wait indefinitely
till cottage is available or migrate to
the towns or emigrate. An observant
motorist through the eastern midlands
could soon reckon up hundred van
ished homesteads still traceable by
either ruins or rectangular founda-
tions covered by the work Of worms
and moles.
Only wealthy landlords can AFFORD
to build cottages; the duke of Bed
ford. In Cambridgeshire: the duke of
Buccleugh, In parts of Northampton
and Huntington; the university col
leges, and. best of all, the ecclesiastic-
al commissioners have built many
good cottages for moderate rents: and
have done it in spite of financial loss.
Some smaller land owners have done
their best to erect cheap cottages.
The only solution of the great ma
tional question is the cheap cottage.

with the progress in rapid transit TAX
ing its one time customers out to the
suburbs, has been responsible In no
small measure for the gradual de-
parture of Fulton market from its orig
inal standards.
Because its maintenance costs the
city an annual loss of over $4,000. and
the controller has condemned the
building, and largely because 1t has
been declared insanitary by the health
department, the borough president
condemns 1t. So Fulton market must
go.

Acme of Laziness.

A story is told of man who held
the Kansas record for laziness. AS he
was too lazy to do anything at all, his
neighbors finally decided to bury him
alive. They laid him In the bottom of
the wagon and started for the GENE
terry. On the way they were met by
a man who asked what they were do
ing with that man.
HE won't work. and he has nothing
to eat, so we are taking him to the
cemetery to bury him alive" was the
reply.
Touched with pity, the stranger
said:
Friends. l have sack of corn
here that he is welcome to-
Hearing this, the lazy man raised
his head long enough to inquire:
rs it shelled?"
"No, 1t isn't, but"
Drive on" interrupted the doomed
man. as his head disappeared from
view.

FROM THE NORTH COUNTRY
Where the Winters Are Cold and the
Shows Deep.

Writing from the vicinity David
Harum made famous, a man says that
he was an habitual coffee drinker, and.
although he knew it was doing him
harm. was too obstinate to give it up,
till all at once he went to pieces with
nervousness and insomnia, loss of ap-
petite, weakness, and a generally
used-up feeling, which practically un-
fitted him for his arduous occupation,
and kept him on a couch at home
when his duty did not call him out.
while in this condition Grape
Nuts food was suggested to me, and I
began to use it. Although it was in
the middle of winter. and the Their
mometer was often below zero, almost
my entire living for about six weeks
of severe exposure was on Grape-Nuts
food with little bread and butter and
a cup of hot water. till l was wise
enough to make Postum my table bev-

to feel better and during the whole
winter never lost a trip on my mail

SO perfectly satisfactory that have
continued them-using both Postum
and Grape-Nuts at every meal. and
often they comprise my entire meal.
"All my nervousness. irritability and

Fulton market.
The department of health condemn
ed it as insanitary. Finally, on Jan.
%, 1921, the market was torn down.
The merchants scattered to other
parts of the city, some going to Spring
Street market and others to Center
Street market and a part of them to
Old Slip market, until the new market
was built at the foot of Fulton street.
This was finished toward the end of
the year and the aldermen compris-
ing the market committee recommend
ed that the stands in the new market,
which were to be occupied almost ex-
clusively by butchers. be auctioned
Off at a minimum rental of 500 a
year. The butchers organized and de-
cided to boycott the market, thus hop
ing to keep 1t idle until their demands
for lower rental were granted. But
the city authorities determined upon
ignoring the butchers and on Dec. IS,
1921, James Blocker began to auction
off the stalls.

team last Sunday afternoon, the
score being 18 to 10. From the
very beginning of the game il
was battling contes t which ac-
counted for the large mum Der OF
scores. During the first inning
Bayfield, run in one score and
and Washburn tied in their first
half Of the inning. During the
second inning Bayfield, run in
four more scores and in the
fourth inning Washburn sue.
ceeded in getting seven men a.
round the bases. In the sixth
inning the local boys went tc
pieces and Bayfield, run in six
scores, giving them quite a lead.
WaShOurn made two more scores
during the remainder Of the
contest while bayfield, run their
score up to eighteen. It was
v@ry ragged game all through,
both sides having numberless
errors. For strictly bum plying
one team was as bad as the
other.
The Washburh team has not
played a game for three Sun.
days and this seemed to have d
bad effect on their playing.
