THE MORNING RUSH.

In a car full of workers the other
morning the writer could find only
three people who looked as though they
were starting the day with half a chance
of success. The rest looked sour. list
less, inert, weak and sullen. Whoever
had started those people, young and
old, men and women, out for a hard
days work had fallen very short of
success in their job.
Just consider the Importance of the
meal and mental attitude that starts
the day, from a psychological view
point You can forecast successes and
failures in life from the average moral
tone of the family breakfast.
The wise homemaker will give extra
attention to the choosing. cooking and
serving of that meal Having done her
best, she will pay no attention to criti-
cism. She will never allow herself or
family to argue any subject. She will
! try to turn the workers and students
thoughts to their work. She will fire
! ambition SO they will leave the house
with shining eyes. heads erect and step
alert.
| Busy men and women-those who
i carry on the worlds work-need a
rather substantial morning meal.
| The starch and sugar in a cereal,
| fruit, toast and coffee breakfast are
! energy givers, but the worlds workers
need certain amount of protein to

Dictagraph Case Is Brought to Close Because Not Con- sidered One of Wire Tap ping, by Judge Lyman

Holding that acts alleged tC have | been committed did not constitute 1 a crime in violation of the terms of the statutes, Judge Lyman yesterday sustained the demurrer of the defend \ ants counsel, discarged the defendant and eNonerated the bond of Arthur l.. Behringer charged with attempting to learn and learning the contents of telephone message.
 In his decision. Judge Lyman up- held the points raised by Captain !. l.. E. Alexander in the lower court that the chapter of the penal code on which the charge was brought had to do only with wire tapping. The court contended that it was its duty to interpret the law as written and that the message was intercepted by the dictagraph before it reached the telephone line
 The case has held unusual interest to the public and the court room was crowded when the law points were argued. Nil. Behringer was represent . cd by Alexander and Chrsty, Bullard and Jacobs and John l.. Dryer of cl Peso. County Attorney L. NJ. Laney ! for the state had Eugene $. Ives as his associate

Armstrong 1 caused the arrest Of Mir Behringer after discovering q dictagraph in his apartment at Inc Adams the wires of which led to the room occupied by Mr. Pchringer
 The opening argument was made ! by Mr. Rullard. who in addition to bringing ont the facts presented by i Captain Alexander at the preliminary hearing. coatended that the defendant was charged with attempt and con- i summation Of the same act which vas contrary to the law MT Christy argued tha, the dctagraph was five feet from the telephone in Arm sirong's room ar the Adams and that the mcssase was not taken while the same Das being sent over the wire 1 but was conveyed by the vocal orgars of Mr Armstrong.

 Postal Service
 Is Very ProuaIpf

When C. C. Hockett, well known stookman, tried to mail a letter in fire alarm box at Second avenue and Washington street, yesterday after noon, he brought to the Attaway grocery, where he took refuge, a crowd like run on a bank and greater than the establishment had known since its infancy. The letter was addressed to A. J. Peters of Mesa, and was inte nded to be hand led by Uncle Sam in the routine way. But when soda fountain .on wheels dashed up to the corner where Hockett was still endeavoring to open the red box and find a slot for letters, Hockett decided that he would throw the alarmed thing away before it got him into further trouble.
 Just when he decided that a red wagon with half a dozen men hang ing on for dear life, had been inn pressed into the United States mail service, little red car dashed up and couple of men with white heI mets and pickases arrived from an other direction. Then a Seagraves truck boomed into the picture, and a man with Pyrene contraption offered to give him shot in the arm. Before he had time to take q second breath two other squad wagons rounded corners and belched forth another contingent of men just writhine to fight flames.
 A few minutes after the excite rent died down, Hockett whispered to Groceryman Attaway that a man in a gray suit with leather bag on his back was engaged m robblng a green mail box across the way. but he wasn't going to interfere and possibly find himself in another jackpot.

The plot of the story is founded upon the love of Louie and Mike for q beautiful child whom they rear from childhood to womanhood which causes them unconsciously to bend every ef fort to raise a million dollars for her when she shall have become grown up. As partners in the drug business they see wonderful money making possibil- ities in the sale of patent medicines and their activities in the promotion of a marvellous pill of their own is the opportunity for some of the incest, best comedy that has ever been screened.
