Marta said. With all the vividness Of
her impressions, partisan for the mo-
ment of him and Dellarme, she
sketched Feller's part with the auto
matte.
AS he listened, Lanstron's spirit was
twenty again.
'T can see him." he said. "It was a
full breath of fresh air to the lungs
of suffocating man. +"
Marta was off in interruption in the
full tide of an appeal.
"You must-I promised-you must
let him have the uniform againl" she
begged. "You must let him keep his
automatic. To take it away would
be like separating mother and child;
uke separating Nina from Clarissa

Better than an automatic-a bat

Yes, and he shall have the iron CROSS.

Though Mexico offers many wonders

is more interesting or peculiar than
the salt-producing lake near Salinas
station, on the Tampico division of the
Mexican Central railway, ~ miles west
of San Luis Potosi. It may we'll be
termed a two-story lake, for at times
there is lake of fresh water over
lying the salt lake. A water-tlght
roof of green mud separates the fresh
from the salt water. For large
part of the year there is no fresh
water lake there The sun ticks it up
soon after the rainy season Is over.
The salt secured from this lake goes
all over Mexico The lake has been
worked about sixty-five years. The
whole town of 5000 people makes it's
living from the salt. The property
is owned by a family c. estate, but
it is said that not one of the owners
has lived there for years.

GET LICENSES
Over Two Thousand Issued by
the New Board.
YEARS WORK IS REPORTED
Frank D. King, inspector, Visits
Thirty-Nine Cities in Wisconsin,
Improvement in Sanitary
Conditions.

Madison.-A little over a years
work by the plumbing division OF the
state board of health has brought out
the following facts:
Two thousand one hundred and six
ty plumbers of Wisconsin have Sc
cured state licenses.
Thirty-nine cities of Wisconsin have
been visited by the state plumbing In
spector.
Twenty-seven public meetings have
been held in connection with the en-
forcemeat of the new plumbing law.
One hundred and, eighty-two new
plumbing installations have been in
spected
Fourteen out. of eighteen cities in
the state required by law to appoint
local inspectors have complied.
Thirty-five cities of the state are re-
CURED to have their plumbers licensed
by the state and practically all their
resident plumbers have complied.
Twenty-six cities were found to
have local plumbing ordinances, and
thirty-four asked the assistance of the
state board Of health in formulating
or amending local ordinances.
The new plumbing law adopted by
the last legislature has resulted in I'M
provements in sanitary and plumbing
conditions in the state.
The licensing feature has been en-
forced practically throughout the state.
There are IS cities which come under
the license feature. The license fea-
ture is in force in all cities of the
first, second and third class, having
population of 5000 or more.
+ Of the 2,160 plumbers in Wisconsin
now holding state licenses 1872 are con-
tractors, dealing in plumbing goods,
and have a shop or place of business,
in addition to installing plumbing; 624
master plumbers, or those supervis-
ing installments, and 1.104 Journey
man plumbers.
The law requires that all licenses
issued during any one year shall be
renewed before December 81 of that
year. Hence this is busy month in
the plumbing division of the state
board of health. Within the past two
weeks some 400 plumbers have paid
in their renewal fees, $40 each for
contractors. SIS for masters and 81 for
journeymen. There have been no pro-
tests at the renewal requirements.

Death Rate Is Decreasing.
For the last five years the death
rate from tuberculosis has been re-
duced by one every SO hours. with
all the agencies vell at work, the next
five years will show reduction OF
one at least es..,,y "a hours in this
state"
This is the message which DIR. c. A.
harper, state health officer, is send
ing to local health officers. urging
them to encourage the purchase OF
Christmas seal stamps by the people.
"The sale of the Christmas seal
stamps, through which the work OF
the Wisconsin Anti-Tuberculosis asso-
citation is financed. is now on. The
work Of this association is valuable
to all public health agencies and com
ment is unnecessary.
II desire, however, to call your spe-
cial attention to the Importance OF
this work and, as public health OIL
ficer, ask that you become directly
interested in furthering the sale of the
Christmas seal to the fullest extent.
Every stamp sold aids toward the
protection of our fellow citizens and
strikes one more blow at the most
dreaded of all disease-tuberculos
No one can afford to leave a single
stone unturned in order to further
the crusade against the great white
plague.
Kindly encourage the purchasing
of Christmas seal stamps in your COM
munity and thereby become an active
factor in reducing the death rate and
sickness from this disease"

DaIryins the Principal Industry.
Dairying is the industry, however,
which is making dollars for the Mani
toba farmer. 1t is developing at a rap
id rate in this Province for that par
ticular reason. The output of cream
cry butter last year was 100000
pounds, at an average price of 27.5
cents per pound, which was an in
crease over the previous year Of q
million pounds. The output of dairy
butter was recorded last year at 4,2SS,-
276 pounds. The Government depart
ment says that again this year a sub
stantial increase in the dairy output
will be shown from this Province.
From this same source of information
one finds that through the splendid
growth in winter dairying, Winnipeg
now, for the first time in years. Is
able to obtain sufficient supply Of
milk and sweet cream from its city
dairies to satisfy it's demand through
out the year without having to import
