STORM COST PHONE
COMPANY 100000
Western Union and Postal TEL
egraph Companies Each Lost
Half a Million.

Five thousand of the 10000 tele-
phones in New Jersey put out of
commission by the storm have been
restored to service.
The telephone and telegraph com
panies and the railroads have put
every available man to work in the
State erecting poles, stretching wires
and clearing snow from rights of
way. The Western Union Company
has 1900 alone and the Pennsylvania
railroad $500. 1t was estimated yes
terday that the storm had cost the
Western Union Telegraph Company
and the Postal Telegraph Company
5000 900 each, and the New York Tele-
phone Company $4,000 The rail
roads were put to heavy expenses
also.
All passenger and milk trains OF
the railroads operating from Jersey
City ran on regular schedules yes
terday. The freight service through
New Jersey is approaching the nor
NAL, but on some lines is still slow.
The lost telegraph wires continued
to handicap the operation of trains
on all lines running west except the
Lackawanna, which replaced the
wire service with wireless. A Mar
conf portable wireless station was
put up at Dover yesterday, which
with the wireless stations at Hobo
ken, Scranton and Binghamton, gave
the Lackawanna unbroken commune
cation all along it's line to Buffalo.
The wires between Binghamton and
Buffalo withstood the storm.

Tobacco as a Drug

Is tobacco a drug q necessity or a
luxury" is the three-pronged ques-
ton that has arisen in Ireland in
connection with the administration
of the national insurance act. The
experimenting medical officer of the
Dublin district recommended that a
consumptive patient, coming under
the provisions of the act, should have
tobacco for smoking as a solace and
a comfort to him in his last days. He
offered to pay for the weed himself,
but the insurance committee, decid-
ing that the tobacco was necessary to
the patients treatment, sent the bill
therefor to the insurance commission
ers. Two weeks later the local au-
thorities wrote demanding an ex-
PLANTATION for charging the govern
ment with a shilling's worth of to-
bacco. The answer received was that
tobacco is recognized as a drug in
the British codeX (Which answers to
the American dispensatory) under the
title ''nicotiana tobaccum" and that
1t had been presented by a registered
practitioner, Meanwhile the patient
is dead, the tobacco has been smoked,
and the question of payment is grind
ing through the circumloCution Office

Queer Generosity

Hospital patients of today, enjoy
ing the benefits from Good Samari-
tan performances, are better off than
their ancestors of "the good old
times" Mr.. Wheatley, in his book
on London" quotes from a Scottish
act of Parliament of 1886 to the effect
that "gif ony man brings to the mar
ket corrupt swine or salmond to me
saudi, they sail be taken by the mail
lie. and incontinent. without ony
question, sail be sent to the leper
folke;" and if there be no lepers, then
only sail they be destroyed utterlie."
The same pleasant custom obtained
in oxford in the fifteenth century,
where all putrid meat and fish was
by statute sent to st. Johns Hospital.
Our hospitals are the scenes of con-
slant warfare with death; in mediae-
val times they fought with life

NEW STYLE LETTER BOXES ARE PUT UP
In BUSINESS DISTRICT OF THIS CITY
Self-Locking Improved Holders
Declared to Be- More Con-
venient Than Old Type.

Newark now has some of the up
to-date letter boxes Men in the Fed
eral postoffice employ are taking
down the old-style boxes and sup
planting them with the new inside
locking device.
Seventy of the new kind have been
put up in the central business dis
trict. Others have been erected in
Forest Hill and other sections of
Newark.
The old-style box locked with a
paddock on the outside. The new
style is of a much handsomer type.
1t has self-loclking device. The lock
is on the inside. This arrangement.
the postal department states, makes
the boxes more burglar proof.
Another feature of the new-style
box is the large opening at the top to
allow large letters to be dropped. 1t
is difficult to place a large envelope
within the old-style box without
crushing the envelope. This trouble
becomes a thing of the past with the
new-style box, it is claimed. Newark
is one of the first cities in New Jer-
sey to receive the new style of letter
box

Steamship Company Declares
Banker Cont Kept 100000

NEW YORK, March 5.--Charges
that Cesare Cont, the Italian banker
and merchant. who assigned recently
to Joseph M. Conklin, converted to
his own use large sums he received
for tickets and freight as agent of the
Lloyd Sabaudo Italian steamship
line, were made yesterday in a suit
for an accounting brought by the
steamship company.
The complaint alleges that between
March l, 1918. and February /, 1914,
Cont took more than 100000 belong
ing to the company and then altered
his accounts and kept the money. 1t
is alleged that he deposited the
money in three banks in New Jersey
and two in New York, and that only
81 900 remained when he assigned.

Man Dehumanized as His
Desk When Job Bosses Him

He's really very agreeable outside
of business hours" How often we
hear this remark about a certain type
of man at the head of a large enter
prise. He is the man whose office
demeanor is characterized by the
GOODNESS of a snow ball and the in
difference of a stone.
In his desire to become efficient and
make every one about him the
same he squeezes every bit of human
feeling out of his relations with his
subordinates and becomes a part of
a working syseem as dehumanized as
his filing system or his adding ma
chine or the typewriter which his
Stenographer manipulates During
office hours he is a machine which
dictates letters, looks over reports
and develops efficiency. But-"he's
really very agreeable outside of bust
ness hours"
This man needs to know that, his
ability being efficient, he becomes
more efficient as he becomes more
human, just as a machine is more
efficient the more machine-like 1t be-
comes. He needs to learn that the
man at the head of a big concern
must have personality if he is to
Dold MS business together, ana tflal
personality is a good thing to keep
on top.
The man who subordinates his per-
sonality to his position is the man
who let's his position run him and
who is a jobholder before he is a
man. A pitiable state, indeeu, for
anybody to find himself in. Being
man with a personality as we'll as
an executive with high degree of
efficiency is an ideal which every
business man might well mold before
himself, inside of business hours or
herwise--Milwaukee Journal.

United States. Charlie Straight and

We reckoned it was time to leave. l

TRADE AT HOME.

Trade at home" should be the
slogan.
The low price Of cotton brought
about by the European war has
caused money matters to be tight,
especially in Mississippi, and we
have to adjust ourselves to condi-
tons. One way the people can
help conditions is by patronizing
home merchants. Keep the mon
ey at home that you might be
tempted to send to mail order
houses. The home merchant car
ries you when you are in a tight,
and you owe it to him to buy your
goods at home.
Stop! Think! When you trade
at home you trade with your
friends. Your money helps the
churches, lodges and homes.
The trade at home idea and the
grown at home idea should be
encouraged by every loyal citi-
zen. .......
