Highest EndurabIe temperature.

1t is difficult to say what the highest
temperature is that human being can
live in. In the kitchens of some of the
great hotels and in the stokeholes Of
some steamships the temperature gets
to 14O or 145 degrees. Cooks and their
helpers and stokers have to endure that
temperature for hours at time. and
they seem to get along pretty we'll.
The hottest place perhaps where hu-
man beings work is in the vulcanizing
factories. where the temperature Is
212. the boiling point Of water. There
are few who can stand this heat for
a little while at time. but that Is the
limit; man can endure no more.-New
York American.

in the present war it will not be
long before she will impose condi-

THE SPARK OF TRUE HERoIsM
It Whips the Flames of Physical Fire
in a Single Handed Bout

, Midway News: But for one gen
uiDe spark from the real touch Of true
heroism, it is difficult to imagine the
extent Of the catastrophe which would
have engulfed big chunk out OF Mer.
riam Park, last Thursday morning.
Called out by an explosion from a
five gallon can of benzine in the Twin
City Varnish Company's plant, on
Cleveland avenue, Lieutenant Jerome
A. Martineau, Of the Merriam Park
fire department., SO bravely and so in
telligently charged against the columns
Of fire threatening every instant re-en-
forcement from six ffteen-foot tanks
of benzine, that he saved the sestab-
lishment with barely few hundred
dollars damage, as against one horri-
BILE fry funeral and one vast chasm in
the cart Otherwise uuf,d1
mark the site of The Twin City Var
nish Company's plant this morning.
Lieutenant Martineau has the Mer-
riam Park idea. Had he needed the
suggestions of the local manager of
the establishment, it would have. been
different. And that difference is all
the difference there is between the
Model Community Idea and the Con-
solidated Corporation System.
