"Robber Dollar Sale"

A rubber dollar sale" was the title
Of a stores recent announcement In
tended to emphasize the idea that dur.
Ing the month a dollar could be
stretched to cover more than its real
value, according to the Clothier and
Furnisher. To give forceful illustra-
tion, ten one-dollar bills were attached
to the placard and were so folded that
the figure one showed only on the bill
at each end, so that at first glance the
group looked like a much stretched
single dollar.

waters Is being talked Of for next
summer. The torpedo flotilla will like
wise be given its chance for a pleas
ure jaunt that will be as good as the
best.
So 1t comes to pass that the ships
which will sail from Hampton roads
about November l will be the Wyo-
ming, flagship; the Vermont, the Ohio.
the Arkansas, the Florida, the Utah,
the Delaware and two as yet not
named.
Carry All Supplies.
With these battleships will go three
new colliers, the Orion, the Jason and
the Cyclops. The bunkers Of the bat
tleships will be full of coal when they
leave Hampton roads. With the three
new coal ships plowing in its wake,
the feet Of dreadnoughts will demon
strate its ability to subsist for three
month cruise without calling in any
outside source Of supply whatever.
No ship will take on coal other than
from the accompanying colliers from
the time 1t leaves Hampton roads un-
TIL its return. period of nearly three
months.
The same is true with reference to
supplies for the $500 men who are
making the cruise. The larder Of all
the ships will be full when the cruise
is begun. The great cold storage COM
partments will be stocked with frozen
meat and throughout the trip the men
will have as good food as when in a
home port. The supply ship Celtic,
which is the last word in the way Of
an up-to-date refrigeration plant afloat,
will accompany the fleet, and from its
stores the dreadnoughts will draw
men necessary, although 1t is figured
that the three-month cruise could be
made even without the supply ship.
This self-dependence Of the feet is
Intended as demonstration Of the
| possibilities in time Of need. The
fleet wants to show that 1t can go
forth and give an account of itself
for three months without the neces.
sity of returning to the home port
There are few campaigns at sea that
would require more than three
months. Conflicts at sea that would
make world history could be initiated
and brought to a conclusion in less
time. Almost any point in the world
could be reached from our supply
bases and the force Of the whole navy
hurled against 1t without any occa
sion to worry about food and fuel
When nine. of the great dread
noughts Of the Atlantic feet steam out
of Hampton roads force will have
been set In motion that is almost be
yond conception. Each of these nint
vessels will represent a weight O
10000 tons. The nine, together witt
the colliers and supply ship, would
weigh more than 100000 tons. Tt
carry the weight here represented
would require $500 freight cars
which, strung out on the tracks, woult
make line thirty miles long Wher
steam is up and these ships are NOV
ing at the rate of twenty knots al
hour there is force in motion tha
comes near being irresistible.

POISONS GET IN FOOD
RESTAURANT KEEPERS SOME
TIMES GIVEN ScARES.
Blunders Which Prove Costly to Pro
ducers Of Eatables and Serious
to Customers, Sometimes Re-
sulting In Death.

II the proprietor Of restaurant
ever has nightmare, 1t is to the effect
that some poisonous ingredient has
accidentally found It's way into dish
and that the papers are full Of blood
curdling accounts of the sufferings and
death Of his clients.
About five years ago nearly score
Of people were badly poisoned after
dining In the restaurant of q well
known West Central hotel in London.
and although the source Of the poison
was never accurately traced-all that
was discovered being that 1t was some
form Of ptomaine poisoning-yet to
this day that restaurant has hardly
recovered its former popularity.
More recently a blunder was made
in London fried fish shop. Engine
oil was, in some extraordinary fash
ion, substituted for the cottonseed
oil which is commonly used for frying
fish. This mistake proved absolutely
fatal to the business, and after time
the proprietor was forced to close his
doors.
Oddly enough, very similar incl
dent has Just come to light in another
large town. On the morning Of March
last baker made the alarming dis
covery that the vegetable oil which he
had used in making his fancy bread
and pastry overnight had been deliv-
cred to him In barrel which had
been previously used for storing kero-
sene.
The moment he heard Of the blum
der he rushed off and engaged the
services of six doctors and dozen
carts. The carts were sent round the
town to retrieve the bad bake. while
the doctors gave their services free
to any customers who had already
partaken Of the poisoned food.
Most readers will remember the
arsenic-in-beer epidemic of 1902. This
was the most extensive poisoning on
record in England. 1t was four months
before the authorities realized what
the matter was, and by that time
there were over a thousand cases In
five counties, and 81 deaths had taken
place.
The source of all the trouble was a
minute quantity Of arsenic in the beer
supplied by Manchester brewer. 1t
was no fault Of the firm, for analysis
Of the liquor showed that the arsenic
originally came from glucose which
had been made with impure sulphuric
acid It was the acid which contained
the arsenic.
In the year following the great
arsenic poisoning came the oyster
scare. There were outbreaks Of ty.
phoid fever at Winchester and at
Portsmouth. The fever was traced to
oysters, and the result was that for
some time oysters were almost un.
salable. One big oyster firm which
had been paying $3.50 week in wages
dropped to SIS a week, and 1t is reck'
oned that the oyster merchants
throughout the country must have lost
at least $500,000

Why Papa Lost CONSCIOUSNESS.

IF you marry him." said her papa,
who was exhibiting symptoms of vio-
lent displeasure, 81 will not only have
to support him, but l will have to pay
his debts, too"
But the pretty girl and petulant
young thing who was hanging to his
coat lapels was not moved by the ar
gument
Now, papa" she said, you know
well enough that Fred has to live, Just
the same as other men. And, as to
his debts, I've heard you say hundreds
Of times that mans debts ought to

A Gentle Hint.

II was speaking with your father,
last night" said the young man.
"Oh, we're your" answered the sweet
young thing, lowering her eyes. What
were you talking about?"
About the likelihood Of war with
Mexico. Your father said II there was
a war he hoped 1t would be short"
"Oh, yes; know papa is very much
opposed to long engagements"

NOW, WHO HAS DIRTY HANDS?
Yours Are Only Relatively Cleaner
Than Those Of Your Nelghbor,
II You Reflect.

This Is a lavatory episode and not

candy. Maybe you'll call 1t an cpl
gram. / don't know. But l heard 1t
in one of those places where the long
rows Of white bowls and hot and cold
spigots and paper towels and tipsy
bottles Of liquid substitute for soap
are.
There were two boys there, Office
boy type. One was washing his
hands. Also man, office man type,
who joshed the boy who was wash
Ing. Told him he needed bath by
the looks Of as much Of him as was
visible-and such as that. The boy
hotly denied that he was filthier than
the average. Finally the merry kid
der went out. The accused boy turned
to his companion and exclaimed, part
y In indignation and mostly in
amusement, at the absurdity of the
idea:
He thinks everybody's hands is
as clean as his is
Now that struck me as right IL
Illuminating. have long wondered
how boys can live with dirty hands
and uncombed hair. l have a young
son of my own and l know that no
amount Of moral sausion will make
em wash and comb regularly. But
don't you see, boys hands are not
dirty unless they are dirty for boys
hands. It's that same old stuff over
again about everything being rela-
tive.
That boy who seemed to think
cleanliness was an immutable con-
dition, something that just happened
and couldn't be avoided or attained,
was my boys benefactor, though he
didn't know 1t. / realize now that a
boys hands are clean when they
don't look 1t to the parental eye.
I'll not bawl out my dear boy for
coming to the dinner table with grimy
fingers any more. l know now that
1t will all come right In time. When
he gets to be as old as l am his
hands will be as clean as mine is
One more precious thought: Did
you ever sit In car alongside q
delivery boy or a molder or a laborer
and shudder in ill-concealed horror
at sight Of his dirty hands or face?
You are In the habit of supposing
that your own hands and face are
clean, ! suppose? Well, they are
not, except relatively. Your hands
may be clean compared to the boys.
but they are disgustingly dirty COM
pared to comparatively clean hands,
such as surgeon has when he's all
ready to go ahead with the slashing.
Think 1t over and don't let yourself
get puffed up with false PRIDE"
