Mrs. Connors lives on the fourth
floor of a Harlem tenement house.
Her face is pale from illness and has
the heavy lines of care and privatlon.
Though scarcely able to, get about she
is again working at the washtub.
1t is reported by woman who
heads an organization of the detraud-
ed depositors that five people have
gone insane as a result of having lost
every penny they had. More than a
thousand girls were thrown out OF
work by the closing of the two Slegel-
Vogel stores.
Through the interest of John Clat-
lin, owner of other department stores,
many of the girls have been provided
with new jobs.
But no such worry confronts the
Countess Dentice de Frasso, daughter
of Henry SiegeI. 1t was several years
ago that the SiegeIs announced her
engagement to Count Charles Den
tice de Frasso of Rome, noted eques-
trian and sportsman and member OF
one of the oldest families in italy.
The wedding followed shortly aft
erward. The terms of, the marriage
settlement were not announced, nor
is it likely that the accountants at
work on the Siegel books will ever
discover just how much of the miss
ing funds travelled across the water
to buy pearls for the countess and
polo ponies for her count.

same kind was also told of Henry
VIII, and is to be found in Fuller's
Church History Dining with the
abbot of Reading, Henry, according to
this authority, ate SO heartily OF a
lion of beef that the abbot said he
would give 1000 marks for such a
stomach. "Done." said the king, and
kept the abbot a prisoner in the tower
until he grew ravenously hungry, and
won his 1000 marks and knighted the
beef. But Webster characterizes this

BY the l. II. c. Extension Depart
ment-Books Dealing With Many
Phases of Agriculture and Other
Subjects.

Agriculture means more to the peo-
ple at large than all other things. 1t
is the most vital subject now holding
the public mind. The work OF agri-
cultural and industrial education Is
q very large and a very important
work. The Agricultural Extension De
partment of the International Harvest
er company of New Jersey was or
ganized to develop the agricultural
efficiency of the people, who are till
ing the soil and producing the crops
upon which we live.
The work of the department is car
ried on in many ways. First, by 60
ing direct to the homes of the peo-
pie, and assisting them in their homes
with their problems.
Another method is the dissemina-
ton of educational literature. The
department has at present for dis
tribution a number of interesting
booklets covering many phases OF ag'
riculture and other subjects. all OF
which are Of special interest on &C
count of their educational value. They
are not for sale, but will be sent any

MISTAKES OF A SCIENTIST
Sir George Airy's Predictions About
Atlantic Cable and Big Ben Were
Proved Wrong.

Sir George Biddell Airy, British
astronomer royal, told the pioneers of
the first Atlantic cable that it was
mathematical impossibility to sub
merge the cable to the necessary
depth, and If it were possible no sig
nails could travel through SO great a
distance. Sir George was also asked
about the possibility of making Big
Ben, the great clock in the tower above
the houses of parliament, so trustwor-
thy that it would not lose five Sec
onds a day on the average. He re-
piled that no clock exposed to the
weather could run with so small an
error. The late Lord Grimthorpe, how
ever, said he would guarantee the de-
gree of exactness, and by designing
his gravity escapement he produced a
timepiece that is never five seconds
out with the observatory at Greenwich,
to which it signals its time each day,
and on most days is dead true.

SHORT SENTENCES FOR HIM
Writer Gives Good Advice to His Eel
lows in the Following Simple
Words.

Writers who wish to impart to their
productions power and pungency, who
wish to keep the readers attention
upon the tiptoe of activity, who desire
to escape the imputation of pedaptry
and who seek to surcharge their senti-
ments with sparkle and spirit will do
well to bear in mind constantly that
long, lingering sentences, unduly over
burdened with an abundance OF
phrases, clauses and parenthetical OBJ
servations of more or less aggressive
character, are apt to be tiresome to
the reader, especially If the subject
matter be at all profound or ponder
Gus, to place an undue strain upon his
powers of concentration and to leave
him with a confused concept of the
ideas which the writer apparently has
been at great pains to concentrate;
while short, snappy sentences, on the
other hand, with the frequent recur-
renee of subject and predicate, thus
recalling and emphasizing the idea to
be expressed as the development of
the thought proceeds, like numerous
signposts upon an untraveled road.
these frequent breaks having the eff
feet of taking new hold upon the
readers attention, GASES in the desert
of words, as it were, will be found to
be much more effective, much more
conducive to clarity and far better
calculated to preserve the contact, the
wireless connection, so to speak, be-
tween the writer and the reader; pro-
vided, however, and it is always very
easy to err through too strict and
literal application of a general rule,
that the sentences are not so short as
to give a jerky, choppy and sketchy
effect and to scatter the readers at
tention SO often as to send him wool
gathering completely.-Ellis o. Jones
in Life.

STATE HEALTH REPORT
SHOWS THAT TYPHOID FEVER is
DECREASING.

western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.-A remarkable reduction in
the number Of typhoid fever cases in
Colorado in 1918 over the previous
year is shown by the annual report Of
the State Board Of Health submitted
to Governor Ammons. There were 1872
less cases in the state last year than
In 1912. and a decrease of 1886 cases
In 1913 over the previous three years
together. Colorado now shows less ty-
phoid in a whole year than it did
every three months of previous years.
1t is believed these results were at
tanned by the effective campaign
waged the last few years against the
deadly housefly and the strict watch
which has been kept over the possible
contamination of the drinking waters
of the state.
The report mentions the success
and benefits derived from the new tu-
berculosis law requiring that every
case be reported so that possible In
tSStAoti may UC 6udIuCu dSdlAoI' Inc
Denver city ordinance prohibiting the
use of the unsanitary roller towel is
commended.
1t is stated in the report that $500
children die annually in Colorado be-
fore they are years of age and that
so per cent. of them could be saved by
sanitary surroundings and careful at
tention.
The course of the board has been, it
Is said, prevention rather than eradi-
cation, to enlighten the people of the
dangers of infection from disease and
the means Of preventing it.
The board, according to the report
has been handicapped by insufficient
appropriation, but much money has
been saved the state. DR.. PAUL S.
Hunter, secretary of the board, says
that $4,000 less was expended last
year by the board than during the pre-
vious year.
In spite of the Endorsement of the
fight against the roller towel by the
board of health, however, the roller
towel is in general use in the state
capitol except in the office of the
board of health itself.
