Beef Tea an Infnxicanf

We find 1t hard to believe the cable
report that Liverpool physicians are
very much exercised over the case of
the travelling salesman with delirium
tremens induced by too much beef tea.
Food analysts and nutrition experts
have long been aware of the high slim
ulating power of meat proteins, which
DR.. Crittenden says are approximately
equaled by but one sort Of protein from

I've argument on the fact.that the stim-
ulation from meat is in way like that
from alcohol effecting tissue change
or metabolism rather than affording
nutriment. Beef tea Is the highest
stimulant among the meat Juices. Ply
sicians have long since abandoned the
notion that 1t Is a food capable of re-
pairig tissue. for laboratory tests have
proved that 1t causes more rapid vast

Indeed. dogs fed entirely on concen-
trated beef juice are so overst.:nulated
that they die within a few days. Ex-
perimonts conducted by tho United

Guard Parish Church

The propensity of the suffragettes to ap-

to guard their property against possible
attack from the women agitators1.
typical case is the Parish church of
Brentwood. Essex. The building was
neither damaged nor directly threatened,
hut nevertheless most adequate precau-
tions were taken TO protect it and It's
treasures. For months sentries chosen
from among the parishioners have kept
continual watch ON their church, the
women taking the day watch in turns and
the men the night watch. Even now the
day watch is continued While other pre-
cautions have been taken to prevent a
night attack. Each week list of watch
ers is hung in the church. the names of
about 20 or 80 of the more leisured women
members of the congregation appearing
on Ii under one or more special days. The
women take half-hour turns from o'clock
in the morning until o clock in the even

Famous Firm to Pass

| The passing away of one of the sreat-
est contracting firms in the world.
: John Arid & Co. is announced for next
year. The firm which damned the
Nile and carried out other great works
throughout the world will cease to
exist next September, by which time all
outstanding contracts will have been
completed.
The decision to go out of business
has been taken by the present Sir John
Arid. who succeeded his father n 1911.
and INFESTED from him a fortune OF
over $5,000,O00. The reason given Is
that. while the risks of contracting
are as great as they ever were, the
profits are not nearly so large as they
were some 20 or 80 years ago. Great
plants will be distributed and q staff
of engineers and workmen who are
said to have no superiors, will be seek
ing new positions as a result of the
action.
Like that of most big contracting
firms, the history of John Ard & Co.
is somewhat romantic 1t was started
in 1S4S by John Aird, a Scottish ma
son, who came to London from Ross
shire and after following his trade for
several years, was appointed superin-
tendent of the Phoenix Gas company
at Greenwich. There he learned the
business that give him his start, and
was the laying of water and gas mains
for London. His son. the first baronet.
who died in 1911, Joined the firm In
1851, and under him the firm made
great strides. They removed Crystal
palace from Hyde park to its present
site at Sydenham; built water and gas
works all over the country as we'll as
in Berlin, Copenhagen, Russia, France
Italy. Denmark and Brazil. They built
and extended railways, and construct
ed Royal Albert East and West india
and Tilbury docks on the Thames and
later the Manchester ship canal. The
great docks at Avonmouth and Singa-
pore were created by them. but the
damming of the Nile capped ell their
work.
1t was not easy TO get this undertaking
financed, the Egyptian government not
being willing to take the risk. 1t was
accomplished when the late Sir john Arid
met Sir Ernest Cassel, the banker, in
Egypt one day. Arid placed the plans
before the banker and in two days the
financial end of the undertaking was ar
ranged and Aird was able to so to the
Egyptian government with an offer to
construct dams at Assouan and Assiout
without even the first payment being
made until the work was completed.

The Swansea Consolidated.

We made some jocular remarks in oUr last weeks issue on this property ard they have come true only too soon, for receiver has again been appointed for the property. This rrOperty has been probably the worst and most glaringly mismanaged or any property in Arizona. During the regime of the Clara Consolidated money was lavishIy spent on utterly Unwarrantable surface improvements, and so many men were employed and they were positively in one an Cther's way. Then a smelter was erected and constructed on plans en~ tireIy at variance with successful re- ductiOn principles. Offices, dwell ings and stores were constructed that would only have been justified had the property a great future and per manency and was making handsome returns. Ornamental palms in tubs were shipped in for the broad veran- das. The whole thing has been an unfortunate fizzle and surely d wretched example of so-called min ing.
