THE FIRST PAPER

When Adams Eve began to do the
housekeeping for Adam, she had no
cares such as pursue the modern
Adams madam. She did not know
what was the rage, because there was
no Woman's Page.
She did not get a Daily Hint from
Paris full of passion to start her on
daily sprint to keep up with the
fashion. She did not haunt the beauty
stores in order to keep open pores.
When Adam capered nome at night
Che was no wearied plodder) he did
not shiver lest he might be served with
curious fodder. There we're no papers
so you see there was no Household Re-
cipe.
Old Adam was happy bloke and
lived life most CHEEKY. He did not
know that he would choke some day
with his bacteria. Adam and Eve had
never read Health Articles to scare
them dead.
Eve never went through Adams
breeks when he was sweetly dreaming,

HOW THEY WASH.

Because they use too much water
and too little soap, women do not get
the same dazzling whiteness in their
washed clothes as do the United States
Marines, Sergeant Clarence D.
Rhoades, of the Marine Corps, told a
party of society women visiting the
battleship Utah today.
'The eye-paining brilliance of our
white clothes is due to the fact that
we wash with our heads as well as our
hands, and we let soap do its proper
share of the work. Just enough wa
ter to thoroughly wet the wash is suf-
ficient," the sergeant continued, "and
the less water and more soap one uses
the whittier the washing will turn out

COUNTY HOSPITAL BUSY.

With sl,102 cases handled by the
county hospital, the institution has
closed the busiest year in its history
according to a report prepared by
Warden Clayton F. Smith, which will
be submitted today to President Peter
Reinberg of the county board. The
report specifies the cases as follows:
Patients admitted and who occu
pied beds and were given treatment
for some time, 3l,26l.
Persons who had wounds and in
juries treated and bandaged and who
were then released, 1896.
Persons who applied for and were
given medical prescriptions, ALSO.
Patients at present in the hospital
l,724.
Persons who asked for admittance
and were rejected, 24,177.
Patients who had X.ray examina'

The chief points in the report are
the victorious fights waged against
infantile paralysis, the smallpox cpl.

ing the torrid wave last summer.

LEGISLATIVE OUTLOOK GOOD.

The outlook for business.like con.
sideTation of state problems at Spring.
field this winter never was better,
according to the Legislative Voters
League. In bulletin IL said:
The league is gratifed to say that
of the new senators 81 per cent were
Endorsed or found acceptable by the
league and 81 per cent of the house
members.elect may be so classified.
NO assembly in the last generation
has contained greater number OF
men with legislative experience. In
the senate all except eight members
are men who have either occupied up
per house seats before or have seen
service in the lower body. Ninety
eight of the 153 house members have
served before in one or the other
branch.
Legislative students believe 1t Is
possible to reduce the number oil
standing committees still further
probably to between sixteen and
twenty.

There are too many wildcat financial
schemes now In existence In Chicago.
Not wishing to compete with the big
banks, irresponsible people are starting
up small banks In the outlying districts
Of Chicago, from time to time. This
practice has had disastrous results
upon the business and financial inter
ests OF the entire city. Many hundred
small business men and traders have
been ruined by this class OF institu.
lions.
This nefarious practice should be
stopped and the only way to stop 1t Ia
by municipal legislation.
A provision ought TO be made In the
city charter authorizing the city under
lts police power to regulate the estab
lishment Of banks and creating In
Jursuance Of this work q board for

RHODE ISLANDS new SENATOR

Though Peter Goelet Gerry, sena-
tor-elect from Rhode Island, is a man
Of wealth and assured social position,
he is far from being one Of the idle
rich"
Known in society as a polo player,
a coaching whip and thorough sports
man. Mr.. Gerry also is known to his
friends us student Of politics and
economics.
His first appearance in politics
was in 1912, when he was elected
delegate to the Democratic national
convention from Rhode Island. He
was appointed member of the COM
mittee to notify Woodrow Wilson Of
his nomination, and next appeared as
the organizer Of a series Of Wilson
clubs in his state.
Old-line politicians declined at
first to take Mr.. Gerry's efforts seri.
ously, and mild surprise was expressed
Mt the announcement Of his nomination
for representative In congress from the
