that jokes on other cars should be

neighbors, each took $4,000 and went
to town to buy cars. One got a
$4,000 car, and the other bought a
Ford. On the way home, the big car
stuck in the mud and the Ford, going

Typhoid in Vacation Resorts

From the Detroit News-T Tribune.
The seeker after health and pleasure
is warned against typhoid and death In
the current issue of the bulletin of the
Detroit board of health. Care In the
choice of summer resorts is advised.
Not only does the board caution against
the insanitary conditions about summer
homes, but there is a warning to exercise
care even on the trip, whether it be by
boat or rail.
Next September will surely show a
marked increase in the deaths from ty-
phoid fever as compared with the earlier
months of the current year. says the
bulletin. '"This has been the history of
this preventabe disease In Detroit Dur
ing that month the summer tourists are
returning from their outings In all parts
of the state and country. and our studies
OF typhoid fever gave us unquestionable
evidence that many OF these visitors bring
with them the germs of this disease.
They not only suffer from typhoid fever
themselves but transmit the infection to
their best friends and immediate members
of their household with whom they are
in daily contact

Shoes and Motor Cars

From the Chicago journal.
Word comes from South Africa that
the demand for American boots and
Shoes always great In that district, has
been increased in remarkable fashion
since the war. From another part of tho
southern hemisphere (Argentina) our con-
suls write In that American automobiles
are gaining In popularity and that IL
commerce with the United States can be
made half easy commerce with
Europe, Yankee motor cars will lead all
others on the plains OF tho Plata.
Apparently, whether the people under
the Southern Cross so on foot or by auto
they are learning to look to America for
their travelling gear.
Their education in this matter Is still
incomplete. For the last year for which
figures were available the United States
|supplied only one-flfth OF the automo-
biles imported into Argentina. The pro-
portion is greater now. but there il
plenty of chance for 1t to increase. As
for boots and shoes there is no reason
why this country should not gain as
clear a supremacy In the whole western
hemisphere as 1t has now in Cuba, where
practically everyone who does not go
barefooted gets his foot coverings from
America.

History to charity organization
society usually means the ease his
tory of the poor the sick and the
weak. But to the charity organiza-
ton society of Newport, r. l., the Of
flee itself breathes history-history
that is tinged with the romance of
French cavaliers and is woven of the
bold deeds of revolutionary heroes. For
the Newport society has moved from
cramped quarters into the spacious
house built by a Newport merchant,
Metcalf Bowler, in 1853 and from that
date until 1872 the center of political
and social life.
A history of the house written by
Maud Lyman Stevens and published by
the Newport charity organization So
ciety relates that when Metcalf Bowl
er built his home, Newport was rising
into a busy commercial center. Mer-
chantmen and whalers discharged their
cargoes at the wharves, ship building
went on in the cove, rope walks spun
the needed cordage, while the raw ma
terial brought in was worked up In
spermaceti refineries and distilleries.
Sugar and molasses were the staples,
logwood from Honduras. silks and
wines from France and slaves from
Africa.
The Tax Troubles
When, in 1865, England was strictly
enforcing the obnoxious tax on sugar
and molasses, Metcalf Bowler was Sc
lected to represent his colony at con-
vention to consider the grievances of
the colonies, especially in regard to
taxation. In 1868 he was made one
of a committee to prepare an address
to King George in behalf of violated
rights. During the same year he was
made speaker of the general assembly
an honor which he retained for 10
years.
In the first days of it's existence.
then, the old Vernon House was the
scene of open hospitality to prosper
Gus merchants and colonial lawmakers.
On the anniversary of the repeal of the
stamp act, March 1S. 1857, the records
report Hon Metcalf Bowler gave an
elegant entertainment to number of
gentlemen, true friends of liberty"
The next owner of the old mansion
was another Newport merchant and
ship owner, William Vernon, whose
life and name are even more closely
connected with the house than those
of Metcalf Bowler. William Vernon
did not long enjoy his pleasant home
stead. however. War and famine came
to harass Newport. In December, l776.
