CIiquot Club Elects New
Addition; Doubles Output

The Clicquot club Co., Mills,
Mass, has just completed new ad-
dition to its plant. New machinery
is being installed. This will double
the production. A new power plant
has been erected which will triple
previous power equipment. Two
new sidetracks have been secured.
This is due to the tremendously
increased business which the Clio
quot Club Co. is doing. This concern,
which has been under the present
management for the last 10 years,
has secured a national business.
Clicquot Club is practically the only
domestic ginger ale which is sold in
almost every part of this country.
The quality of the product has never
been allowed to deteriorate. Durin.
the time when there was a marked
shortage of sugar the managemnt
preferred to curtail the production
rather than use any substitute. 1t
is a product which has won its posi-
ton of supremacy by quality and the
strength of its advertising effort.

Former Partner of Dead
Bandit Held for Robbery

Two noted police characters, Tony
Pasha and Frank Trummer, former
"pal' of Judd Tobias, killed after
he had fatally wounded Detective
Frank Murphy recently, were arrest
ed late Saturday afternoon by Spe-
cial Officer F. A. Heller of the
Union Pacific.
Heller says the two men drove
to the freight depot and loaded sew
eral boxes of tobacco on their ma
chine and started to drive away,
when he accosted them. He alleges
they attempted to run him down
with the machine and were not
stopped until he had fired several
shots at them from his revolver.
Trummer and Tobias were sem
fenced to serve year in the state
penitentiary in 1910. The two men
were charged at that time with
numerous holdups, thefts and rob-
berries.

WOMEN CAN VOTE
AT PR|M ARIES,
SAYS Attorney
Author Of Partial Suffrage
Law Names Elections at
Which New Voters Can
Participate.

Women are entitled to vote for al
elective officers in primary elections
according to ruling of c. A. Soren-
sen, attorney, and author of the
woman suffrage law.
In response to a request of Mrs
w. E. Barley of Lincoln, presi-
dent of the Nebraska Woman Suf-
frage association, for an opinion on
the voting privileges of women un-
der the partial woman suffrage act
of 1917, he ruled that women could
vote for all officers at primary cleo
tions, including the constitutional
convention primary.
According to Mr.. Sorensen's rul-
ing on voting at primaries, the
primary is NOT an election. but an
orderly method of selecting men to
represent their political party in an
election.
Under this ruling women will be
entitled to vote at the primary cleo
ton. September 10, 1919, for the Sc
lection of candidates for delegates
to the Constitutional convention and
at the general primary election next
spring will have the same rights as
men in electing the candidates of the
various political parties for presl-
dent, governor, encouragement and
other minor state officers, supreme
and district court judges, congress-
men, members of the legislature and
all county and precinct officers.
At the general election in Novem-
Der he rules that women may vote
for president of the United States
and all county and precinct officers,
except county Judge and upon
county propositions, such as bond
issues. All school propositions and
officers may be voted on by women
He rules that women are not en-
.titled to vote on questions submitted
to the voters of the state under the
initiative and referendum because
the manner of submission is pro-
vided for in the constitution.

jELLYFISH'S STING NO JOKE
Pest Known as "Portuouese Man.of.
War; Is Dreaded by Bathers, for
Excellent Reasons.

The iellyfish has long been the sub
Ject Of mirth and jest, but at times It
Is aggressive and formidable. and it's
sting Is a source Of fear for bathers.
The sting Of the southern Portuguese
Jellyfish, known technically as the No
meus, Is very severe.
Jellyf1sh are found in the trade
wind belts Of all oceans. Each Por-
tuguese "man-of-war." as the jellyfish
Is sometimes known. is made up of a
number Of small animals Of the jelly
fish order. which have in common an
lridescent colored. bubble-lilse float,
about the size Ola mans hand, which
rests on the surface of the water. A
fin or sail enables the float to make
headway across the wind, rather than
with It. The jellyfish has long paper
like tentacles. and these are equipped
with the stings. When they brush
against bathers they burn and leave
red welts that itch and burn for hours,
and should two or three pass over a
mans arm at once, they would almost
paralyze 1t. Some years ago scientists
discovered little man-of-war fish that
accompanies the man-of-war jellyfish.
1t swims around the float until danger
threatens. when it sneaks underneath
and is safe from harm under the pro-
lection Of the jellyfist's tentacles.

USEFUL ITEMS

Ivory knife handles may be reno
vated when they have become yellow
by rubbing with turpentine.
To polish steel tenders, mix very
finely powdered bathbrick with little
paraffin, dip a piece Of flannel in it.,
and we'll rub the fender till all rust
and marks are removed. Rub again
with a rag dipped in dry powdered
brick, then polish with clean duster.
To stiffen the bristles of a hair
brush, try the following plan: First
Of all wash the brush well In hot wa
ter to which a dessertspoonful Of am
monia has been added. Then dissolve
a large piece Of salt in some cold wa
ter, and dip the brush in it several
times. Leave it in the open air to
dry, and you will find the bristles get
quite stiff again.
To starch black cotton dress or
petticoat, use starch made with coffee
as follows: Take a large cup of
strong coffee, add to 1t two tablespoon
fuls of best starch previously mixed
to a smooth, soft paste with a little
cold water. While the coffee is boiling
fast, add the starch, and let it boil
for a quarter of an hour. Turn it into
a bowl, and do. not use it until it is
nearly cold.

Possible Cause Of Fever,

The Medical Journal asks II "all fe-
yer, or at least large proportion Of
It, may not be due to some change in
the fluids of the body which prevents
water from being available as perspir-
alton which by its evaporation serves
to keep the body COOL"
It may be that the practice Of max
Ing fever patient perspire freely has
another purpose than the washing out
Of impurities from the blood, this be-
ing an actual cooling by evaporation.
IAN abundance of water has been
found beneficial in fevers, and there
are many clinicians who are decidedly
Of the opinion that cold-water baths
have much more than merely a direct
and mechanical refrigerating purpose,
for they are followed by rather free
diuresis and often also by perspira-
ton. Indeed, one of the great indica.
tons for bath in fever Is that the
skin is dry and hot, for 1t Is under
these circumstances that the bath will

ClTY'S DEBT AN INVESTMENT
Growing Municipalities, Like Undue
tries, Are In Constant Need
Of More Capital.

So generally has the failure Of Amer
lean municipal government been pro-
claimed that the 1913 financial statis-
tics of the 227 cities in the country
with over 10000 population, published
by the federal census bureau, come
with degree Of surprise. According
to the official report, all but four Of
these cities actually lived within their
means last year-that is, their revenue
receipts exceeded their current gov
ernmental expenditures and interest
payments, and in eighty, or more than
one-third, including some Of the largest
communities. the revenues exceeded
all governmental expenditures, includ-
ing capital outlays. The group as a
whole collected in revenue about $780,
100000 above current expenses and in
terest, or a sufficient surplus to pro-
vide four-f1fths of the total outlay in
permanent improvements.
Growing industries or enterprises Of
trade always require an increase OF
capital, the Philadelphia Bulletin re-
marks. Growing cities are confronted
with similar necessity, and munich
pal debt, If created for permanent i'm
provements- and wisely expended, is
merely municipal capital. an invest
ment in municipal development, effi-
cheney and convenience which is a
necessity for the production Of tax
paying property. So that total figures
of municipal outlay, or the evidences
Of increasing municipal debt, are not
reliable criterions Of the actual fnan-
cial status of the cities, except as they
are measured in comparison with the
expansion Of the communal plant. The
comparison of current revenues and
expenditures is a more competent basis
Of judgment.
