Where can a complaint be made
against people that have a dog that
bowls and cries all night and day?
He is nuisance to the whole neigh
borhood. Its owners have refused to
| dispose of him. SUFFERERS.
Such a complaint can be made to
| the Board of Health. They will in
yestigate the case and then If they
find it to be public nuisance they
will order it stopped. If the annoy
ance is not then stopped, they will
complain to the police.
J. P. N:
In defense of Verri and Moretti,
have a few lines to offer in their
favor. The fans have not discarded
the Italian champions for poor rid
ing. Verri, who was@here last sea-
son, gave all the riders he met
battle all the way. You will also
remember that Moretti defeated Wal
ter Rutt the worlds sprint cham
pion, who will ride at the Velodrome
this season. FELIX FORCE
More praise for the Italian cyclists,
who, judging from the attention be-
ing given them. will be popular
around here next season,

A, B and C are playing Hotpoint
game of auction pinochle. A has 81
points, b So and c "a. B gets the
bid for Is and melds 20. c melds
and A 6. At the end of the deal
A has points, B has 8 and G 5.
AS total is 100, BIS So and C's 20.
A calls out, but claims that A must
take in trick after making 100 be-
fore he can be declared OUT and
bases his claim on a house rule,
which read that 100 points and an
additional trick are necessary to go
out. A claims that by having 100
points and no more cards with
which to take q trick at the end of
the deal it would not be necessary
to play another hand for that trick.
c contends that another hand must

A goes out. That house rule about
100 points and an additional trick
means that If during play player
gets 100 points he must take trick
in order to go out, but when the
hand is over and player has 100
points he is out beyond dispute.

A wagers 3 that there are more
than 100S0 straight in a poker deck
of cards and 5000 fiushes. B differs.
Who is correct? l.. M. M.
A evidently knew something when
he bet you. There are just 10000
straights and 5,10S flushes in a poker
deck. You wouldn't believe it, would

Perhaps you will think it very
foolish proposition, but we are in
earnest. Two other girls and myself
would like to know whether or not
we would be allowed to ride at the
Velodrome.
Do you know whether or not there
is a law forbidding. girls boarding a
trolley car when it is in motion?
have done so twice and each time
a Public Service man got on with
me until the car stopped. If a girl
can board a car with as much ease
and grace as a man, why don't they
let her go ahead, unless it happens
to be against the law?
Please tell me whether or not
have talent for drawing. l have
never taken lessons, but my one am
bit1on has been to become a fashion
artist Many people have told me
That have talent, but | know that
friends do not always like to dis
courage one, SO l ask your opinion.
II you think that should take up
drawing, tell me if there are any
fashion artists in this city.

Girls a Al,
track at the Velodrome. You girls
must be tomboys. 1t is unlawful t..
board moving trolley car, and, S
for girls, well, ease and grace do not
enter into the argument. Your draw
! ing sample does not Indicate any
} talent on your part. These are cruel
words, but they are true. You seem
to be rather odd person. You ride
a bike jump trolley car and draw
carelessly. Not much encouragement
there, I admit, but l have done the
best 1 know how by you.

Will you kindly tell me the best
way to reduce weight in the least
possible time I now weigh 1876
pounds but want to get down to 100
pounds in four weeks A. G.
Rapid reducing of flesh is not the
wisest thing one could do, as it has a
tendency to break down your whole
system. Fifteen pounds are too much
J to take off in a month. Try road
work, and plenty of it, as a reducing
method Abstain from potatoes, milk
and pastries and all starchy foods,
, and do not drink water. The idea is
to work hard, perspire freely and go
on a strict diet.
