1t Is the Duty of Atlanta to

Four times this winter nothing OF the past the lack OF
fire protection for the north end of Atlanta has been forcpy

to the handsome James s. Floyd Charles H. Black

How Romance Upset Progress
sive Politics
By EDWIN MARKHAM.

TINE country postoffice at Pur-
ham had long been presided
over by an inefficient post
mistress, whose lamentable short
comings as public official and
custodian of mail have been COW
cred up as much as possible by
the efforts of her daughter,
Amanda This is the situation we
find at the opening o. Margaret
Deland's homely, happy, yet pa
thetic| little story Partners"
sent out by Harper Brothers, Of
New York.
Finally, however, progressive
politics overcome neighborly toll
Grafton of lacks and losses in the
postoffice. 1t is decreed from
Washington that the partners,
mother and daughter, must give
way for new administration in
the Purham postoffice Not even
the gift of a blue plush album
from the pleading postmistress is
sufficient to placate the austere
United States Government au-
thorities.
So, after all the proud years Of
public office, the discredited
partners" must bow their heads
and retire. Now comes William
Sprague, the new appointee.
Watch the romantic diplomacy
with which he appeases Wash
ington, yet keeps intact the So
cial and business standing of the
partners"
Mandy" he said, 1--WE thought
Of something. 1t isn't perhaps
just the thing you'd like but it's
the only way out of the darned
mess. And I'm willin'. Well, /

Amanda's lips parted; her eyes
dilated. "a way out?"

It's only fair to say like you. I

about me, know" he apologized,
land, of course, It's sudden and
we'd have to be spry; we'd have
to get spliced before Monday
But just look at it, Mandy; it's
the only way to get ahead Of Mr..
Hamilton, confound him! Course
we'd never let on to your ma why
we did it; she could consider me
a third partner
"Oh, what shall do?" she said
William Sprague sat down be

imprudence Of sitting on the
grass in May, and rose. "I thought

as the thermometer has assured
you that the weather is. But Won
are not half way to your destins-
ton before q SILVER runs down
your back. your nose becomes an
icicle, your ears smart and burn.
and you begin to sneeze or cough
You feel that you have laid the
foundation Of a serious cold"
which will probably put sons
money in the pocket of your
neighbor, the doctor.
But if, scared by the thought Of
pneumonia, you return home in
haste, you will see, as you glance
at it in passing, that the Their
mometer on the porch still stares
you down with it's impudent as
sertion that the air this morning
is only moderately cold-1ust
about the right temperature to be
enjoyable and healthfuI.
Now, where is the origin Of the
deception, and why are you warm
when the thermometer is cold.
and cold when the Thermometer is
warm?
The whole trouble arises from
the essential difference between a
simple machine consisting Of
glass tube and little mercury
and complicated living body
with its multitude of interrelated
parts and functions. The Their
mometer has only one way Of
feeling changes Of temperature,
and only one way of responding
to them, VIZ, by either expansion
or contraction of the liquid metal
in its tube. The human body is
heat engine continually radiating
away the heat produced within it
by its vital processes, and its
principal means of feeling
. changes of temperature occurring
outside itself is through the diff
ferent rates at which its inborp
heat is radiated away to sur
rounding air.
When the air is dry on cold
morning there is little or no evap-
Grafton, and the skin is not Sc
riously affected by the cold. But
If the air is charged with mols-
ture the invisible water drops
evaporate on touching the skin,
and by their evaporation abstract
heat from the body, which feels
the resulting chill deep within,
So, if the air is still, the cold does
not penetrate, but If 1t is breezy
new particles of cold air are con-
tinually swept against the skin
and more and more heat Is eb-
stracted from the body.

no not let the thermometer
IL fool you. 1t is a very de-
ceptive instrument for
those who do not know how to
use it-and sometimes for those
who do, or think they do.
You may glance at your Their
mometer, hanging just outside the
door, one OF these winter morn
ings. and see the mercury stand
ing at zero Phew! You feel
SILVER at the mere sight OF that
needle of glacial metal, contract
ed down almost to the bottom OF
its tube, as If seeking refuge, and
glittering there like a miniature
icicle, cut off short
You wrap yourself up as for an
arctic journey before Yenturing
out; thrust your gloved hands
into your big overcoat pockets;
put on your ear shields; start on
a run for the office, or the rail-
road station, in order to get your
blood into a state of defensive
circulation-and, in two or three
minutes you are streaming with
perspiration! You turn down
your collar, open your coat, and
find that the air is, though not
exactly balmy, decidedly bracing
and agreeable.
Yet there hangs that .thermom
eter, steadily marking zero!
1t has deceived you, but still it
has told the truth-yet not the
whole truth; only the truth as it
sees it. 1t is zero weather for the
thermometer. but it Is not zero
weather for you. Evidently your
body and the thermometer have
not the same standards of meas
urement.
But. few days later, perhaps,
you look again at your thermom-
eter on the porch as you are
about to go about your business,
and you find that it marks very
comfortable sum of degrees above
zero-what might truly be called
balmy weather, for winter. You
have forgotten the disagreement
that you had with the instrument
of science the other morning, and
you bow again, conidingly, to its
decree. 1t says the air is COM
fortably warm. and tHermome-
ter surely ought to know, since 1t
is it's sole business to measure
temperatures,

Peanut PoliticS-and Progress
By Ebert HUBBARD

Big business has improved the
quality and bettered the service
OF everything It has touched
Big business does things that no
partnership and no corporation
can possibly accomplish
Partnerships are made up Of
several individuals working to-
gether for common end
Corporations are made up Of
individuals working together for
a common end.
Supervision and Brains.
Corporations are made up of in
dividuals, with a provision that in
case Of death someone else shall
take up the work Of the individual
who drops out and carry II on
Thus we have body without
death, a mind without decline.
The corporation is organized to
carry out a work that no man or
set Of individuals can accomplish
In a lifetime
The trus. IS a partnership Of
corporations and has been
evolved ont Of The necessities Of
the time
Progress does not consist in GO
ing backward
II men in big business are guilty
OF eNtor ION or coercion punish
them. But do not burn the barn
10 Kill the mice
The thing to do is to accept
these big combinations. and then
see that they are properly super
vised, but the supervision must
not be by demagogues and poll
ticians. The work must be done
by big sympathetic men, who are
economists by experience and who
have brain c, nacity, plus.
These are times OF transition.
and il is well for us to exercise
patience and bring our GOOD ma
ture to bear
The country is safe when the
people are employed. but when
the bread line forms mankind
easily slides off into mob.
Business is organization. and
there is nothing SO civilizing as
the pay roll The demagogues
who would lynch a pay roll in or
Ger to punish somebody are inyit-
I ing commercial disaster and ma
/ uonal discredit.

The Ten Cent Man.

Big business thinks in millions
whereas the majority OF us limit
ourselves to thousands at the
most.
Go into any drug store and ask
for an article that is sold in two
sizes, 10 and rs cents. and nine
times out OF ten your merry drug
clerk will hand out the Accent
size--simply because he Is 10
cent man. He thinks with the
dime as a unit OF measurement
In East Aurora there used to be
a man who had peanut stand at
the railroad station one day a
fellow from Chicago came along
and said to the peanut party
why do you not expand your
business, take on a side line? In
fact, why do you not carry pop
corn"
The peanut man put in pop
corn. and as a result -ot nervous
prostrauon
The trouble was that he was
strictly a peanut-man.
In America we have great
many peanut politicians.
