THE DAYLIGHT FACTORY.
Wants Additional Hands -Men and

"The Daylight Factory" for the
manufacture CT mems trousers and
other wearing apparel, is operating,
although under great odds. The fac
tory is a splendid local enterprise and
desc rves Encouragement from every
citizen.
1t is now giving work to some few
score girls and women, some of them
cripples, and those who must help
themselves although almost helpless.
The work is taken to their homes by
the manager. But more hands are
needed, workers both men and women,
are wanted at once at the Daylight
Factory and can apply on the third
floor of the Lyric Building, corner
Cornhill street and Market Space.
The conditions surrounding the
work room are the best. 1t is well
lighted, splendidly ventilated and
sanitary in all particulars. The
Chamber of Commerce should encour.
age such an enterprise and lend
helping hand. The entire community
is indebted TO the management of the
factory because it is an enterprise
which offers work to men and women,
and there is now no excuse for sin
gle idler in Annapolis.

Pennies Saved Count for sac.

The old adage of take care of the
pennies and the dollars will take
care of themselves, was perhaps,
never better demonstrated here than
in the case of a well-known Main
street merchant, WHO yester lay open
ed a box in which he had been deposit
ing the little brownies" for the pas t
few months.
For some time ii has been pre-
vailing custom with the merchant, at
the close of each days business, to
place all pennies remaining in the
cash register from the days re ceipts,
in box. The receptacle, it is said,
was becoming pretty we'll filled and
il was decided to open it and count
the coppers.
The counting showed it t. con-
tain 1000 pennies, or S40-a sum,
the greater part Of which perhaps,
would have been paid out in various
ways The pennies had been collect
ed over a period of three or four
months, it is said.

BABY KILLED BY MILK.
Health Report Urges Citizens To De-
mand Herd Tests-Tubercle
Germs Rampant.

Believing the recent death of a thir-
ten-montbs old baby from tubercu-
lar meningitis TO have been contract
ed from infected milk, the health de-
partmeut has issued a warning to
Washington people to be sure that
the cows from which their milk is
supplied have been put through the
tub srculin tests. The warning was
contained in the department weekly
bulletin. sEzE
Shortly after the little girls death
the herd which was furnishing the
milk she drank was examined, and
living tubercule bacilli were found.
Sale Of the milk was prohibited pend
ing further inspection, when it was
found that everyone of the forty-one
cows was diseased. Two Of the cows
died on the way to Baltimore, where
they were being shipped for further
inspection, and eventually the entire
herd was slaughtered
Up to the time of the discovery Of
these conditions eighty gallons Of
milk from this herd had been sent 10
Washington daily. When the herd
was destroyed the owner of the dairy
quit business. The same report says
that week ago one of the largest
herds supplying milk to the District
wSs found TO be diseased with living
tubercle bacili.
DR.. H. Young, chief of the food
inspection service of the District,
says that it is impossible to state
with even approximate accuracy the
proportion of the cases of tuberculo-
sis in man in the District that has re-
suited from the consumption of in
fected milk, but is of the opinion that
a considerable number of these cases,
especially in children, have such an
origin.
Since the food inspection service
is considerably hampered in its work
by existing laws aud financial coqdi-
tion, DR.. Young is all the more de-
sirous of impressing on the consumers
of Washington the Importance of
seeing that milk used by their fam
lily is from cows that have passed the
tuberculin test.

MARY FULLER.
In The Romance Of Rowena" at The
Palace Tonight.

This splenc id Edison drama, fea-
turing Mary Fuller, was scared at
the request of several patrons. In
re jecting the written pr Iposal of Sir
Henry, whom she has never seen,
Rowena declares her husband mpst be
romantic. Sir Harry, disguised as a
highwsymsn, stops her coach and
carries her off on his horse. His APP
pearance at a masked ball reveals his
secret and Rowena surrenders.
Then tn ere is a powerful biograph
drama, 1.-The Stolen Treaty" where
by the detective averts an interna-
tional scandal. In the cast will be
seen Claire Mcdowell, Harry Carey
and Lionel Barrymore.
1.-The Kiss Of Retribution" is a
strong Vitagraph drama. After bid
ding a fond farewell to his sweet
heart, Edgar Forrest leaves his coun-
try home for the great city on BUSH
ness trip. He does not expect to stay
away long, but falls into the clutches
of a willy adventures who quickly
ems laves him it'll her charms.
He stays on and on, neglecting the
call of his hesrC to return, while his
sweetheart sorrowfully awaits his
return. When at last he prepare
to depart for home, the adventures
determines to hold him TO her, even
though it be in death. She poisons
her lips and kisses him goodbye.
The kiss of retribution is fatal and
they die together, locked lin one an
others arms.
To complete this excellent program
there will be an interesting Kalem
drama, "The Counterfeiter's Confed-
crate The story deals with the
fortunes of two orphaned sisters
twins-one of whom falls into the
hands of professional beggar, while
the other becomes the daughter of a
wealthy couple The roles of the twin
sisters are portrayed by Miss Anna
Nilsson, of the KaIem Company, and
the widely different character of each
makes it appear as though the dual
role were really being rlayed by two
persons.
But triumph of moving picture
photography occurs in the climax of
this drama, when the twin sisters
meet. So wonderful is the illusion
that few can bring themselves to be-
lieve that Miss Nilsson and the sister
are actually one. "Palace Quality"

oughly enjoy.

JAPANESE workbench LEARN
ENGLISH AND RAILROADING

Teaching. English to japanese work
men is one of the tasks of the educa-
tiona1 bureau of the Union Pacific
Railroad Company, according to infor-
nation received at the United States
Bureau of Education More than 500
Japanese section foremen and track
men are employed by the railroad,
and for the benefit of these men in
struction books are issued in japanese
and English. 1t is believed that by
handling practical problems of rail-
reading in both languages the Japan
csc workers will not only gain the
necessary. technical information but
also increase their knowledge of Eng
lish.
This is but one of many interesting
phases of the Union Pacific's educa-
tional work. The educational bureau
of the railroad virtually conducts
complete correspondence school for
employees. The instruction is offer
ed to any worker whose desire to bet
ter himself is strong enough to make
him willing to study. The lessons are
carefully corrected and graded by of
fciaIs of the railroad and returned to
the men. Record sheets are also
furnished in order that the men may
keep an account of the work done and
the percentages received.
The lessons are entirely practical
in subject matter and method. No
dLLe11pC IS maze TO marx anyCh1nS
but substance. Writing, spelling,
grammar, and punctuation are not ia
ken into consideration IN assigning
percents, but it is the experience Of
the bureau that employees who have
carried on the work are aided mater
tally in these subjects.
The inst lotion books issued by the
railway cover a number of subjects.
Many deal with technical problems of
railroading; Track work, compound
locomotives, concrete construction, re-
frigerator traffic, locomotive firing,
block and interlocking signals, etc.
