From Tuesdays DaTyy

death knell of the glass milk bottle
in Pennsylvania has been sounded.
Dr. Samuel G.. Dixon, the state
commissioner Of health, says that
cit will have to give way in the near
future to the destructible bottle that
will never be used second time.
This is taken to mean that within
a few weeks the Health department
advisory board will rule that the glass
milk bottle must go.
Such rulings have all the effect of
statute law.
Commissioner Dixon doesn't like the
danger of infection through the pro-
miscuous distribution and gathering
of bottles, no matter how clearly the
dairy or creamery may be.

EUROPE'S JOLHIEST KING

The jolliest king in all Europe is
Christian x of Denmark. He is far
removed from the Hamlet immortal
liked by Shakespeare. Hamlet was a.
morose sort of person who lost him
self in philosophy. Christian, with the
lungs of a giant, can bawl out music
hall ditty with all the lustiness of a
Copenhagen StevedOre.
Christian can pull an oar, swing
q racket, jump a hurdle, sail boat,
ride horse, empty bottle, and make
a speech. He is the most popular man
in Denmark.
The king is a giant in stature. There
is a joke in Copenhagen, first cracked
by a jovia1 Dane, that when the king
gets cold feet in December, he doesn't
begin to sneeze till May.
In his youth, the present king of
Denmark. spent some time in a Jutland
garrison, and made himself extremely
popular with the civil and military
functionaries by his politeness to their

"My dear boy, there's nothing SO

assurance that came partly from the
speakers having, at one time in his
career, conducted the financial page

approaching a shudder. ut doesn't

"And this won't be war like other

''There'Il be no personal heroes--no

TINKHAM'S SIGNATURE

George Holden Tinkham is a
bachelor congressman from Boston,
noted for having the most horrible
signature in congress.
When he signs. his name 1t sug-
gests the signature Of a careless hen
dashed off hastily in a raGish bed.
Only once in his life has Tinkham,
written his name in way that made
it even half legib1e. That was when
he prepared a sample signature for
the purpose Of having fac-simile
made to go on his official envelope.
Tinkham worked for more than an
hour on that. And when he got
through it was no more like his regu-
lar handwriting than If he had hired
a stranger to do it for him.
Aside from his chirography, Tink-
ham seems to be all right. There are
persons who claim to be able to read
character from handwriting. Such a
person would put Tinkham down for
