its doors after the Columbus banks
had agreed to advance the money to
pay all the depositors. Lawyers fees

Look Out For Canned Air

Canned air. is not a new product 1t was in gen
oral long before pure food legislation was heard
of and it has continued to be used in spite of the eff
forts of health authorities to do away with it.
1t is most frequently found in churches, schools,
public meeting places and even in homes. 1t is
particularly injurious in the latter for then
Is likely to breathe it many hours at time
But it is harmful no matter when and where it is
found for canned air still air, stagnant air
in other words dead air. It's use prevents good
health. The baby cannot grow, the child cannot de-
velop and become strong nor the man woman live
and thrive without good air.
One needs air fresh from natures laboratory, air
filled with ozone Air that is alive.
Tests recently made in public schools show that in
rooms where the wondows were kept open all day,
the absences were % per cent less and the gain in
weight of pupils Is per cent greater than in rooms
where the windows remained closed and the ventila

How to Make Fine City

Some sound philosophy along lines covered by the
MORE or less high-brow term civic beauty" is re-
corded in letter received by The Times recently
from the Mitchell Nursery Co.
tsAn that is necessary says this circular, which
Ne consider good enough even if it is plain bust
ness letter. to pass along to you, "for beautiful
ty is to induce each householder to have plot OF
grass few vines and flowers, and to keep his prem
3ses clean
I'm this way the entire city becomes park, pop
uation is increased, property values enhanced, and
every citizen directly or indirectly benefited"
The letter points out, too, that with our unequaed
climate, our splendid streets and schools the adj
jacent prairie and lake playground, and one OF the
most celebrated mountains in the world there is ev
cry reason why Tacoma should take the lead in the
City Beautiful movement.
This is one of those movements where just little
quiet work by each of is whole lot more effective
than whole lot of mass meetings, speeches and oro-
tund displays Of Public Sentiment.

ESSAY ON OIL.

Oil is a fluid. 1t is much used
in the matter of light, but fire.
quently proves no light matter.
Oil has to be discovered. To
discover 1t, stock, stockholders,
and occasionally a drill or a der
rick are needed.
A "gusher' is one of the most
widely used terms In speaking of
oil. 1t means a man that tries to
sell you oil stock. Oil stock is
very nice stuff to own. II you
