Millions of Dollars in U. S.

HAVANA. October &c (by the Asso-

without prospect or hope of early de-
livery.
Conditions have become so menac

articles are rotting on the docks and
endangering public health"
Hope is expressed by government
authorities that the urgent notice to
American shippers by the bureau OF
foreign and domestic commerce at
Washington not to make further
shipments until advised by consgnees
will be universally followed In some
quarters an embargo has been urged
but it is opposed on the ground of
increasing prices.
Since July 1,017 ships have unload
ed here. compared with 842 in the
same period last year. Dock officials
said today it would require a forty
day embargo to clear the port, and
that even then it would not be pos
sible to save all freight on the
ground.
Inadequate port facilities. the strike
of longshoremen last spring and
speculation are given as the princi-
pal causes of the congestion.

Five New Ways
That science found to benefit the teeth

ties have proved this by many careful
tests. Now leading dentists everywhere
advise their daily application.
The methods are combined in den
thrice called Pepsodent. The results
they bring are quick and apparent. And
this ten-day test, at your command, will
show you what they mean.
Pepsodent attacks the film in two
efficient ways. Then it keeps the teeth
so highly polished that film cannot
easily adhere.

Dental science, after years of re-
search, has evolved new methods of
teeth cleaning. Highest authorities now
approve the new principles. And mil
lions of people are employing these
methods, largely by dental advice.
They mean new era in teeth pro-
lection whittier, cleaner, safer teeth.
This is to urge that you make ten-day
test and watch the results for yourself.

Some results of Pepsodent are in

Of the benefits. Within a week the de-
lightful results can be usually seen in
the mirror.

Tube. Note how clean the teeth feel
after using. Mark the absence of the

the film-coat disappears.
The book we send will tell the reason
for each new result. You will know
how natural and how necessary are the
effects. You will see and feel that teeth
are cleaned far better than before.
These are the methods science now
advises. Make this ten-day test.

cured. As the little fellow had been

DETERMINING STAR COLOR.

A new means of determining star
colors, devised by DR.. e. S. King,
is described in the Journal of the
British Astronomical association.
Over the telescope objective is
placed a piece of plate glass (com-
mercial glass is good enough for the
purpose), which is coated with a
gelatin film, one-half of which is
stained yellow and the other half
blue. The images of the stars are
then photographed out of focus on
isochromatic plates. Each image,
therefore, appears as disk, one por-
ton of which shows the effect of the
blue light, and the other the effect
of the yellow light The two halves
of the image are then compared by
means of a Photographic wedge or
by some similar means.

REALISM IN OPERA.

1t is doubtful whether 81 Pagliac-
CT" could be other than a master
piece, considering the circumstances
IN which it was written, ssys the
Cleveland Plain Dealer. AS boy,
Leoncavallo (whose death was re-
corded some time ago. was present
at suburban theater in Naples,
when he saw thrilling love drama
enacted in real life on the stage,
while as in the opera, the audience
applauded wildly what they thought
to be intense realism. Leoncaval-
los fathers valet was the rival lover,
and was in the theater at the time.
The actor sent for him and stabbed
him behind the scenes. There was
further personal link in the drama.
Leoncavallo's father was a judge,
and it fell to his task to try the ac-
tor-murderer and to sentence him to
~ years imprisonment.

ARTIFICIAL FUEL.

From coal slack and dust, Ignite,

article in Popular Mechanics Maya
zine, an excellent house or indus
trial fuel will be manufactured. The
ingredients are pressed into blocks
of any size, and of layered or lami-
mated structure that heightens the
resemblance to natural coal. AS the
stuff is made from materials regard
ed hitherto as practically valueless,
the market price will be less than
that of the cheapest coal.

SAFETY IN SETTING LADDERS
only Little Thought Necessary to
Determine Just What 10 the
Proper Angle.

When raising ladder to sweep
off cornice, to hang a picture, OF
for any other purpose, one should
know at just what angle to place
it that it may be safest to him who
has to stand upon it.
A series of experiments described
in Safety News has demonstrated
that the greatest degree of safety is
obtained by placing the ladder about
one-quarter its length from the wall.
This gives an angle of rs degrees.
If the ladder be placed further from
the wall it is likely to slip, and the
weight of the workman may put too
great a strain upon it. If it be
placed close to the wall there is the
possibility of the weight of the work.
man oyerbalancing it and mailing it
fall backward besides, as he nears
the top, his feet are likely to have
insufficient room when projecting
between the rungs.
Safety News points out also that
all ladders should have their feet
'hod with points or rubber in order
that they may take sure grip on
he floor and not slip. :
