For $50 years a company of guards

every evening from the Chelsea or the

troops that may march through the

The men themselves like this duty.
When they march back to quarters,
about o'clock in the morning. they
may do as they please for the rest of

fine blankets wherein to wrap himself
while he waits for his turn to go on

Automobile VS.. Railroad

The railroad is popularity sup
posed to take heavy toll of human
life, yet figures which have been re-
Gently compiled indicate that the
number of people killed and injured
in automobile accidents in this
country far exceeds the number of
persons killed by all the railroads of
the United States, excluding the
railroads own employees and tres
passers, people walking on the
track or stealing rides on freight
Gears. Indeed, in the populous parts
OF the country where automobiles
are chiefly owned the automobile
casualties would probably equal if
not exceed that of the railroads
even counting in employees and tres
passers.
In the period of six weeks COW
cred by this compilation from April
1 to May Is, there were 1898 auto
mobile accidents in this country of
which record could be obtained.
This does not include grade crossing
accidents in which automobiles
were hit by trains, of which a sep
arate compilation was made.
In the 1898 automobile accidents
ESQ persons were killed, 424 per-
SOHS SERIOUSLY injured, ana IL
persons slightly injured, a total of
dead and injured of 1882. Natur-
ally there are many more automo-
bile accidents in the summer
months, hence April might be con-
sidered a fair average. If the fig
ures for this period were carried out
for the year it would give 234O per-
sons killed and 1854 injured, a
total of dead and injured of 1854.
The report of the Interstate Com
merce Commission for the year end
ing June 80, 1912, shows that, ex-
Guiding employees and .trespassers,
the railroads ofthe country cost the
lives of LAOS persons and injured
1921. Of passengers alone only
270 were killed. There are 248,-
S88 miles of railroad in this country
and there were in operation in that
year 60,S90 locomotives. More
over while the number of automo-
bile accidents and the casualties re-
sulting therefrom in all reports
show a large increase for each year.
there were fewer passengers killed
by the railroads in 1912 than in
1911, the figures being 27O against

HAZARDOUS MAIL ROUTES.
Postmen In Some Countries Are Never
Sure of Their Lives.

Postmen In Some Countries Are Never
Sure of Their Lives.
The camel postman in the Sahara
hasn't any cinch-that is. if he has a
family he's anxious to live for or hap
pens to be leading care free bachelor
existence. for he needs all the nerve
that be can possibly summon on every
trip that be makes. for the wild tribes
regard him as their particular prey.
and he never does know when he starts
out whether or not he is going to reach
his destination.
Neither has the postman in some
parts of Switzerland the safest job in
the world In fact, in several places in
that country it is considered just about
the most dangerous profession that
man can enter
You see some of the postofices are
situated a a height of 1000 feet. There
is even letter box at the summit of
Vanguard. which is nearly 10000 feet
above the sea level Here all sorts of
disastrous things have happened to IN
fortunate carriers of mail Three have
been crushed to death by avalanches
and a large number swooped down
upon and killed by fierce eagles.
Then in India the poStman always
has to be on the lookout for snakes. 1t
is claimed that within the last year
$50 were killed by snake bites and
twenty seven eaten by tigers.
Queer. isn't it. when in this country
the business of being a postman seems
about the most harmless and least dan
gerous of any a man could pick out?
In parts of Siberia they have only
two mail deliveries a year. while in the
interior of China they have no regular
delivery or regular Chicago

PRESS COMMENT

Selling goods without a profit is
injurious to manufacturer, jobber,
retailer and consumer. 1t destroys
reputation, depreciates quality and
leaves ruin and decentralization in its
path.
1t is the father of deception, mis-
representation and business hypoc-
risy. 1t creates strife, discord, dis
trust and dishonesty. 1t opens the
doors of bankruptcy and closes the
gates of opportunity. 1t depriVes
honest effort of reward and puts
premium upon lying inconsistent
cy. Its pernicious influence forces
all to a common level.
Cutting the price to your competi-
tor merely for the sake of getting
a job regardless of the fact that you
obtain a mighty small margin of
profit, is mighty poor business and
decidedly Improbable.
How do you know when you sub
NIT those close figures that you
won't be subject to any of a hundred
causes which will not only eat up
the little you expect to make on the
deal, but may be the means of your
actually losing money.
Time lost in composition work,
certain undelivered stock, a broken
down-press-al these things and
many more are not figured in your
estimate.
And it is just such things that
make it absolutely necessary for
your original quotation to be large
enough to cover any of these items
that are so apt to occur any day
in your shop.
Look at the work turned out by
these price-slashing concerns. In
nearly every instance it is of infe-
rior quality.
Don't you suppose that the trade
realize this too? Certainly they do.
And that's why they turn to the
man with the reputation for high
class work when they want bet

his prices are a trif1e higher.-Har-
