A cup Of tea and a box Of crack

floor is hospitality which may have
In it all the spirit of kindness which
was demonstrated by the old time
''open house." We are apt to grow
representative and self conscious
when we are surrounded by strangers.
We wonder II anything we can do will
give pleasure. We stay alone and
wish that some one would meet US
halfway. yet we do not go out to
meet them. We sigh for responsive
ness and sympathy and are not con-
sctous that the slightest indication on
our part of a desire to be friendly
might bring cordial welcome from
those whose GOODNESS we have criti-
cfsed
"Open house" in its old generous
sense may not be a possibility under
modern conditions. but those of us who
live in the city might touch the lives Of
the people who yearn for companion
snip and bring to sad hearts glow Of
delight in the enjoyment of our neigh
borliness. There is scarcely a commu.
nifty or settlement where one CHEEKY
and neighborly woman may not rouse
a spirit of cooperation If she exerts
herself sufficiently
1t would be interesting if more of us
would make the experiment during the
gray winter days. especially the DAYS
between Christmas and New Years,
which hang SO heavily on the hands of
those who have no share in the merry.
making of others. If during these DAYS
we would open our tiny apartment. or
even our one room in a boarding house.

WILL ENLARGE FORCE
Substitutes to Be Promoted
and Others Appointed.

The number of packages which are
being received and sent out through
the local parcel post department is
increasing daily. The total number of
packages sent out yesterday was 165,
an increase of 81 over Thursdays bus
mess. Today it is believed that the
number will reach 200.
Between fifty and seventy-five appli-
cations have been received by the To-
cal postal authorities for positions as
carriers or drivers in the delivering of
the parcels. All Of these applications
We're refused, as applicants must first
pass civil service examinations
1t is likely that delivery wagon
will be used after today. C. L. Cluxton
and Lee Ramsey, substitute carriers
probably will be put on regularly af-
ter today and two other substitutes
appointed. There is a number of names
on the eligible list No special exami-
nation will be held, at least until the
spring.

Mrs. Alice Stebbins Wells, the wo-
man policeman Of Los Angeles, in an
address at the suffrage convention re-
Gently held in Philadelphia had the
following to say about the need for
women in her rather unusual vocation:
"One or more policewomen should be
connected with each police department
for the sole purpose of receiving COM
plants from women If for nothing else
Women hesitate to go to a policeman
for information and advice. This is
easily understood, and as a result 1t be-
hooves every municipality to provide
women officers. who can render help In
many ways where man is almost
pUwerless.
The policewoman is particularly
adapted to preventive work. She is
best fitted to handle juvenile offenders.
for woman has the motherly instinct
that enables her to accomplish wonder
full tasks. l believe that every city
should have a woman alta ched to it's
lost persons bureau. She is of great
value in tracing missing persons who
have become separated from their fam
lilies"
Mrs. Wells told of her experiences in
Los Angeles in preventing the sale of
tickets to moving picture theaters or
any other public amusement to chill
dren under fourteen unless accompa-
MED by adults.

LONGEST COMPLAINT
is FILED TODAY

The longest complaint ever filed in
the Wayne circuit court was filed to-
day by the Citizens Telephone COM
pany Of Cambridge City, Indiana, in a
petition for a new trial. The COM
plant is 800 pages long
Last February Frank Morgan sued
the company for damages as the re-
suit of alleged injuries sustained by
him through alleged negligence of the
defendant. He was driving car
rage on one Of the streets of Cam
bridge city. when a wire which had
dropped across the street burned him
violently to the ground. He was
manned and made cripple for life,
he says. He was awarded $1O,05O by
the jury. The company demanded a
new trial. Judge Fox also said the
amount was excessive and told the
plaintiff to accept $1,000 and the de-
cision would probably be sustained.
Morgan agreed to this but the COM
pany filed bond and asked for a new
trial refusing to pay the $1,000

DEATH BY DROWNING.
Sinking and Rising Depend on the
Water In the Lunos.

Sinking and Rising Depend on the
Water In the Lungs.
A group of old salts at Sailors Snug
Harbor were discussing the popular
belief that a drowning person must
come to the surface of the water three
times before he can possibly drown.
WELL" said Captain Tom Morgan,
there is little ground for that suppo-
sition. The truth is, a drowning per-
son may sink the first time. never to
rise again, or he may, as In the ma
jority Of cases, rise three times before
he sinks forever.
1T all depends on the quantity Of
water that he swallows when he sinks
and the size of his lungs. The human
body in life naturally floats while the
lungs are inflated. So long as one
keeps his head above the water he can
float with very little effort
But as soon as the person sinks he
gulps down a lot of water II after
he has swallowed this water he has
any air left in his lungs he will IN
doubtedly rise again and will continue
to sink and rise until all the air has
been worked out Of his lungs.
I'm most cases the frightened victim
swallows enough water when he sinks
the first time to leave him exhausted,
but as there Is still air left in the lungs
he soon finds himself ON the surface
again. Each time he sinks, however.
the supply Of air in his lungs grows
less until ultimately there is nothing
left to support him. when he will
drown" New York Herald

PUZZLED ALL AROUND.
a Russians First Encounter With
ENGLISH In London.

a Russians First Encounter With
English In London.
Russian tells funny story of his
first encounter with the English lam
guage.
The day after his arrival in London
he made a call on a friend in Park
lane and on leaving inscribed in his
notebook what he supposed to be the
correct address.
The next day, desiring to go to the
same place again, he called a cabman
and pointed to the address that he had
written down. The cabman looked him
over, cracked his whip anu drove away
without him.
This experience being repeated with
two or three ether cabmen. the Rus
sian turned Indignantly to the police,
with no better results. One officer
would laugh. another would tap his
head and make motion imitati ting the
revolution of wheel, and so on.
Finally the poor foreigner gave 1t
up and with great deal of difficulty.
recalling the landmarks which he had
observed the day before, found his way
to his friends house. Arrived there
and In company with one who could
understand him, he delivered himself
of a severe condemnation of the cab
men and the police of London for their
impertinence and discourtesy.
his friend asked for look at the
pirth provoking address and the mys-
tory was solved. This was the entry:
Ring the Bell"
The Russian had with great care
copied. character for character. the
legend on the gatepost, supposing that
1t indicated the house and street.-Pear-
