A WORD ABOUT THE
 MUCH NEGLECTED DOORMAT
By DOLLY DALRYMrLE

Just look at that foor.,' he observed scornfully. Just look at those tsacks."
 He pointed dramatically to several good, big, muddy, footprints outlined not upon the sands of time but upon the high
 lustre of a highly polished hardwood floor.
 The speaker was a professional man with large practice, and as the time 70 day was earlier than his office hours" the patient had surprised the office boy over his morning duties and the master over his date book.
 Laying aside the letter the speaker continued:
 T think the world at large has appar- ently forgotten the idea that doormats still exist. At the entrance of every house and office. custom and cleanliness require the placing of a mat for the cleansing of the shoes, but the public seems to have entirely forgotten the pur- pose for which these safeguards to health and cleanliness are designed. With the city streets here and there torn up by the roots, especially during the win ter when the mud and the slush are part of the seasons regime, when it is almost impossible to keep the interiors of homes and places of business clean, visitors totally disregard the initial laws of cour- abode without the faintest preliminary ef- fort to respect the conditions of order and cleanliness that existed before their entrance.
 "Of course. he went on to Bay, Amer jeans do not expect, like the Japanese that the visitor should take off his shoes upon entering a building. but after pur- doormat, from year to year. good many of us would deeply appreciate Its being used. occasionally at least. You can't positively tell guest that he or she has disgracefully brought heaps of mud into your house and spoiled your hard wood floors. but you can and do say to the maid or the man servant that they must get busy with mop and remove the footprints, and this is unpleasant for both the con manded and the commander, with all the other things of this kind that must be done"
 'The medical and intelligent people generally are striving as they have never done before to live hygienically which means, with cleanliness.
 To introduce germ-laden street mud into walled spaces is to introduce possible dis ease. If there were no doormats, then the warfa rers might be excused for care less entrance, but when provision is made for this need of daily life, to track dust ani mud into bodys house is an of fcnse of which men, women and children seem equally guilty" he continued "Peo- pie surrounded by costly things, usually

BIG RAILROAD BUSINESS
Santa Fe Started Eleven Trains to
 California in One Day From Chicago

Eight limited trains in one day, Chicago to Calffornia-that's the latest Santa Fe announcement. Add three other through trains on same date. and the total is Il. which certainly is going some in rail- road circles.
 During the winter months the Santa Fe frequently has sent out two or three Call ifornia limiteds daily. besides three 'un- limiteds'' and the weekly de luxe But this season. on account of the war and the expositions. travel to the coast has increased so much that eight limiteds
 were sold out for March (the first day of the low fare excursion); five for March and four for March 8, in addition to
 three other heavily loaded daily trans- continental flyers. On February and 8 Il limiteds and one special pulled out of Chicago for the land of gold all the way on Santa Fe rails. The total for these five dates, therefore is 45 trains. Chicago to California, which is equivalent to the mileage of a single train travelling four times around the earth at the equator This means the transportation of from 900 to 1400 passengeers a day, or nearly GOOD in five days, and indicates that ex-
 position traffic for 1915 will be very heavy. It looks as though everybody expects to go to the 1.-two fairs for one fare.''
