THE SMOKE AND GAS NUISANCE

The 5MOkE AMI OHO NCiONlNSE C.
The petition presented to the coun-
Gil last evening for action looking
toward the abatement of the smoke
and gas nuisance arising from the
plants along the side cut and ny
draulic basin. are merely steps toward
bringing to head an inlliction that
has hung over Ottawa for many years.
The matter has been up in the form
of talk, and talk many times, but
that is as far as it ever got.
For years the tile works have been
the chief offender and there is no
question but the smoke poured out
has cost the merchants and property
owners of the city thousands OF dol
lars. Situated, as it is, practically
adjoining the business district, the
smoke has entered stores and Offices
and has damaged many stocks, aside
from the Objectionable feature Of be
ing nuisance. Tile works smoke
has been a by-word in Ottawa for
years. Any breeze except from the
northwest puts a cloud over some
part of the city when the firing is
going on And at times, with proper
atmospheric conditions, the nuisance
has even crossed the river an
reached The south side. East Ottawa,
especially East Main street, has been
badly "pester ed" while the residents
of the west side have been rendered
desperate The east end of Illinois
avenue has suffered until there is
no question the value OF residence
property has been affected, and the
smoke nuisance has frequently been
brought forward as an objection to
the west side particularly south Of
Main street, for residential purposes.
The nuisance was tolerated be-
cause the authorities and citizens
generally were loathe to interfere
with an ottawa industry. The plant
should never have been located
where it is. but its location was an
accident and it was never predjcte
in its early days that it would attain
the proportions it has Modern meth
DDS have been devised, however,
which can remove many of the OBJ
jectionable features if insisted upon
and applied.
The nuisance and damage wrought
by the Public Service Company has
attracted general attention more re-
Gently; but to smaller territory
probably, it seems from the prescnta-
ton of the case 10 the council last
evening it is even more objectionable
than the tile works.
There Is no question but the pres
ent directors mean business and arc
determined to protect their property
and their homes by having the nuis-
ance abatod in some way. And this
position is right. There is no more
reason why these corporations should
be allowed to damage the properly
of the residents Of the city than that
any private individual should hc a.
lowed to injure or destroy the prop
crty Of his neighbor. The fact that
one Of the chief offenders is q big
industry and that another is a pub
lie utility does not lessen the dam
age to the property Of the mon who
are complaining ana of the many 9TH
ers whose names do not appear The
names Of over two hundred people
appearing on the petition referred to
alone would indicate that the matter
is serious and that the damage dony
is real and in no degree imaginary.

HEART AND BEAUTY
PROBLEMS
By MRS. ELIZABETH THOMPSON.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: 1 am a high
school girl of seventeen years old.
There is a boy in my town nineteen
years old OF whomI think very much.
have cared for him three years and
think 1 always will.
He says he likes me, but he won't
go with me. / am considered good
looking and I act like lady and have
pretty clothes.
What do you think is the reason he
does not want me? He Is very indie
pendent.
If you don't know how I can get
him, please tell me how to forget him.
JUNE.
Analyze your thoughts, I think you
will find that you permit yourself to
think about the young man altogether
too often. Probably you realize that
you are wasting time, but you enjoy
thinking and do so anyway.
To forget him you must push him
out of your thoughts as often as he
enters them. This can be done. Keep
active. If you work, associate with
young people with an open mind to
enjoy yourself. and If you read, You
should have no trouble to forget the
young man.
You are worshiping your own ideal.
It is unfortunate that the young man
does not give you a better chance to
know him. Friendship would proba-
bly, Danish your ideal, and disappoint-
ment would lead you to seek a new
one.
OF course advise against trying to
win him." Such a thing is practically
impossible and would compromise you.
You have no magnetism for him and
therefore he does not care for you
enough to want you.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: % I am a
young lady 20 years of age and have
been keeping company with a young
man for some time. but we are not en-
gagged. Is 1t proper for me to allow
him to kiss me?
CD Do you consider me too young
to keep steady company with young
man?
CD When a young lady is intro
duced to a gentleman. is it proper for
her to shake hands with him?
DOUBTFUL DOROTHY.
"a 1t Is not proper for you to kiss
him until you are engaged to him.
CD You are not too young If you
care that much for him.
CD Yes, it is proper for her to
shake hands. Either way is correct.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are two
girls of Is who do not work, conse-
quently have plenty of time to go out.
There are two boys who persist in
showering their attentions upon us and
get very jealous II we go out with any
they are nice boys and we want to
keep their friendship and still enjoy
ourselves with others? We feel that
we are too young to hold any particu-
lar friendship, as these boys seem to
want US to do. Please advise US. NJ.
Let them get over their jealousy,
girls, as best they know how. OF
course. you don't want to abbreviate
your list of boy friends to two and two
only.

CHANGED RELATIONS.

Out Of the many effects produced
by the war and the reconstruction per-
iod probably none is more striking or
far-reaching In its qualifications than
the change in the position OF buyer
and seller. Ever since money became
the medium of exchange among civil
lied peoples the possessor of it has
had an undeniably strong strategic po-
sition when it came to driving a bar
gain. This was because money was
convertible into so many desirable
forms thru its exchangeable quality.
1t could be traded for food, clothing.
shelter. pleasure. Injuries; it could
buy goods or services. and the supply
Of goods or services was always more
abundant than the supply of money.
For thousands of years It has been the
man with money who was sought out
by the seller.
All this has been changed. Money
is more plentiful than goods or serv-
ices. The grocer, instead OF rubbing
his hands in anticipation as you enter
his store, looks upon you as one more
boresome suppliant bent on depicting
his stock of food. The drygoods job
Der, who formerly watched the list of
buyers who had just arrived in New
York, planning an expensive entertain
ment in the hope of getting q fat or
der, now waits in his office for the in
evitable call. and CURLY limits his
clients requirements to five cases of
goods.
No matter where you go. no matter
what you want to buy, whether 1t be
an automobile. a suit of clothes from
your tailor. ham, a barrel of flour,
a theater ticket. or room at a good
hotel, the poor buyer gains the impress
sion that he Is a nuisance, and that he
ought to know better than to offer
mere money in exchange for some
thing that has real intrinsic value
This does not apply merely to de-
mand for goods. whether necessities or
luxuries. 1t also applies to services,
and the changed situation is probably
nowhere more pronounced than in the
case OF the would-be employer and
employe. Formerly there were hun
dreds OF applicants for every vacancy,
whereas now the few applicants which
do appear exhibit a spirit Of indiffer-
ence and restiessness, notwithstandine
that wages have been Increased and
working conditions vastly improved.
This situation is fairly representative
OF existing conditions. The position Of
buyer and seller has undergone q
tcompiete reversal. The 50-cent dollar
does not look big to the seller.
So-called friends OF labor, says the
Wollman Review. have been waiting
years for this situation TO Develop

EVERETT IS UNCOMFORTABLE.
CHAPTER XII.

One afternoon when shopping We
ran into a man whom Everett knew.
He was younger than Everett, fine
looking,-aitho not so handsome as
my husband,-and with a very pros
porous air.
Halliday, my wife, Mrs. Graham"
II am charmed" Mr.. Halliday
raised his hat, while his eyes flashed
look of admiration upon me. I
flushed a little, but he only stopped a
moment, and 1 hoped it had passed
unnoticcd.
How nice your friend is" I re-
marked more for the sake of making
conversation than for any other rea-
son. Everett was inclined to walk
blocks sometimes without speaking.
Hes like dozens of city men. He
likes to play around with married
women. He thinks them safer for a
bachelor"
"Why-what?" never had heard
anyone express such a sentiment. !
scarcely understood his meaning.
They might get roped into marry
ing the girls; while they can flirt
with a married woman with perfect
safety to themselves" The bitter
ness in his tone caused me to look
at him in surprise. See that you
make them keep their distance" he
finished harshly.
IL Ohly Every bt-A caught IHySSA
L must not be always wishing he
would be different. Then said:
But If you introduce them to me
they are nice men, aren't they?"
Mice men, as you call them, some
times do strange things" His enig-
matte reply worried me, but dared
say nothing more, he looked so for
bidding.
I expect I was hopelessly bromide
in those first days of my married
life; and also often exasperating.
One day Everett had business ap-
pointment-so he said, and he left
me alone. He had said nothing about
my remaining at the hotel, so
dressed and started out to take a
walk, and look in the shop windows,
an ever increasing delight to me.
remained out about an hour.
When 1 opened the door of our sit
ting room, Everett was looking from

Organized labor is demanding a
larger share Of the profits OF industry.
1t probably will succeed in getting It.
But for every additional dollar it ex-
acts from capital, capital will exact 81
from the general public. including the
membership of organized labor. This
fact has been illustrated in Topeka.
