CUTS HARD COAL ORDERS

George +. Gary, Dane county

Wholesale and retail dealers to
limit hard coal deliveries to five
tons a family. The regulation
went INTO effect Wedncs lay It

many families in town depending
ON furnace or steam heating who
entered their coal orders months
ago at the then prevailing prices
and could not yet receive any of
their fuel supply for the winter
Meanwhile coal prices are contin-
uouSly advancing. Persons hav-
ing coal stoves are allowed the
maximum of two and one half tons

Poor Quality High At Any Cost.

The talking machine industry is
one of the largest in America, and
probably no product has so wide
distribution. Easily the leader, the
Victrola reigns supreme in all lands.
Prices are fixed on instruments and
records, and 1t is rare thing that a
customer even suggests a reduction,
so we'll known is this fact. We have
never sold an item of Victor goods
at cut price, and nobody has
ever had an offer of this kind from
US. Prices on other machines vary
according to the individual customer

on any basis except fair one. Ge'
most for your investment by pur
chasing a Victrola, the machine

DEATH ON TRACK.
Man And Boy Killed On |. c. Near
Hillside Friday Night.

Gong to sleep on the Illinois
Central railroad track near Hillside
last Friday night brought death to
two men, Herbert Kirby, of Nelson,
and Buford King, of Caneyville.
A through freight train struck the
men a short while before midnight,
King being killed at once, both legs
and an arm being cut off. KIRBY
lost both legs, and was taken to
Louisville, where he died Saturday
night. Both bodies were buried at
Nelson. Kirby was a soldier, but
was deserter from Camp Shelby,
at Hattlesburg, and officers were on
his trail. The men had been walk
ing together, and sat down to rest,
when they fell asleep, and though
the engineer gave every signal to
arouse them, could not do so, and
could not stop his train until after
it had passed over them.

Trachoma Hospital Opening Saturday.

The formal opening of the tra-
choma hospital last Saturday after
moo was attended by something like
a hundred interested persons, and
there was general praise over the
work that has been done in fitting
and furnishings. This institution Is
for the free use of all patients who
are suffering from dread trachoma
and already there have been many
patients who have received treat
ment. Hundreds of people in the
county are suffering from this dis
ease, and every one should ar
range for admittance, for their own
benefit and for the protection of the
public health. The expense is shared
by the U. S. government, the state
and the county, and it is possible to
do great good if the people affected

People Are Fit.

The country has suffered quite
generally with the heat during the
past few days: the newspapers have
made big news of the hot spell; and
everybody has agreed that "its aw-
full" and sundry stock lamentations
of the sort. But despite the fact that
the weather has been much more
vawful" than for many, many years
it is to be noted that the prostration
and death ratio has beee negligible,
compared with the deaths and pros
trations cause by only moderately
hot weather in years past.
Does not this fact suggest some
thing to the general mlndl Is there
no connection that is pointed out
by this interesting fact? 1t seems
that the people must realize that
their almost complete immunity
from heat prostratlon is due to some
actuality. SOME physical fact. There
is reason why the people are bear
Ing up particularly we'll under the
excessive heat these days past The
answer to this interesting question
comes very pat to our mind.
1t is the war diet.
Quite simple, is 1t not9 When
one considers the greatly reduced
rations of sugar and meat the Ameri-
can people now enjoy, it Is easily
understood why there are many
heat prostrations and deaths hasten
ed by the sweltering temperature
under which a large part of the
country has labored. The two most
heating elements of diet-elements
IN the consumption of which the
American people long have been
more than excessive-are absent a
considerable part of the time from
the national diet. The people un-
doubtedly are becoming more fit.
If this is true, is not virture, then
Its own rich reward9 The people
do not like to get along with little
sugar. but they are doing it un-
grunbling because in that way they
are enabled to serve. Mr.. Hoover
asks certain restrictions in the use
of meat and the people meet him
half way. They are pleased to be
able to serve in some way: and the
consequence Is that they serve them
selyes to really better purpose than
they serve the the Governments war
needs.
These facts are we'll worth remem-
berlng. Perhaps after the war is
over and there is need for less strin.
gent economy in food matters, the
people will remember how fit they
were during these days Of war; and
the United States no longer will be
a sink-ho for sugar meat and all
the other excessively nourishlne
elements which we have INDUCED In
ourselves so much and 50 long.
Perhaps a few of the salutary les.
sons of the war will stick in oul
minds.
