The clang of the bell sent them
promptly to their places. A school
of the elective order, where the
coming men of affairs and their
competitors were being trained in
business mysteries: yet an insti-
tuition where, out OF hours, the in
dispensable social hiliarity swung
as free as their superiors would
allow
Dess scrawled off her allotment
of penmanship sheets, her mind
roaming meanwhile up and down
the streets leading to her home in
the suburbs. Later-with Wall
street mathematics to keep her in
touch with earth-she attempted to
figure out a way by which she
might more easily accomplish the
trip without sQuandering funds on
car fare. The close of the day
found her on the spot where she
had stood "a hours previously.
Nina Halter tripped toward the
trolley stop. snug in the shelter OF
umbrella, macintosh and rubbers.
From the other wing of the build

in scores. She discern

His comrades were sons of the

indignation rose to a high marx
when she noted Nina Ealler had
let it pass.
She's spying on me: I've a mind
to go ask Con Bentley to let me
ride. Spying-the idea"
But Dess thought of another way.
She knew. by woman's fntuitive

rails into agricultural machinery and autono-

these vessels TO the bottom of the sea when their
DAYS of usefulness are over.

Smokipp and Carbon Monoxide.

| Carbon monoxide is an odorless,
| colorless, taste.css, but very poi
sonous gas which may 10 form ed
wherever or whenever any organic
matter such as coal, wood, oil. gas
| or gasoline is burned without 4
| free supply Of air. II is the carbon
monoxide in the exhaust from the
automobile engine running in a
closed garage that brings death
to many a man tinkering with his
car in cold weather. 1t is the car
bon monoxide in Illuminating gas
that mainly accounts for the fatal
effects of such poisoning. 1t is car
bon monoxide that makes coal gas
from a stove a menace to the life
OF the sleeper who does not believe
in open bedroom windows in all
weathers. 1t is probably carbon
monoxide gas-probably, l say, this
time-in tabacco smoke that ac-
counts for the toxic or poisonous or
Injurious effects of tobacco.
At any rate a small proportion
Of this lethal gas in the atmosphere
is capable of causing startling eff
iects. So important is this that
physicians and engineers have TAX
en- special precautions for the ven
tilation of the tunnel for vehicular
traffic under the Hudson at New
York, for the exhaust of automO-
bi!es using the tunnel might create
menace To persons passing
through. Many serious or fatal
cases of casing in industries are
carbon mOnoxide poisoning. Chem
lists have observed that one-tifth of
one per cent Of carbon monoxide
gas in the air is sufficient to pro-
duce alarming or fatal poisoning if
the air so polluted is inhaled for
d period of six hours Here is
fertile suggestion for the fiction
writer. Carbon monoxide poison
ing hasn't been tried out vet by
any crime master, so far as | know.
DR.. D. W. Collins, of Wilkes
barre, Pa, had Joseph J. Walsh,
inspector of mines, of Namticoke.
Pa. make tests of the air laden
with the smoke of cigarets to de
termine the amount OF carbon mon
oxide drawn through d lighted Gig
aret. Here are the figures DR.. Col
Inns gives for two tests:
Sample No. 1.
Carbon dioXida -. 2.09 per cent
Carbon monoxide -. 222 per cent
Oxygen -. ...... 1928 per cent
Sample No. =.
Carbon dioxide -. 500 per cent
Carbon monoxide . 1853 per cent
Oxygen . 1910 per cent
Then tests were made of the air
drawn through r lighted pipe:
sample No. 3.
Carbon dioxide $50. 40 per cent
Carbon monoxide =. Z.75 per cent
Sample No. 4.

Useless Fear

Many people associate intense pain
with dental treatment and stay away
from the dentist just as long as they
can. In fact they will wait until their
actual pain is worse than the pain
they imagine is awaiting them at his
office. Then they go in fear and
trembling. Most of this is pure i'm
agination, or, if there is actual dis
comfort it is brought about by ear
lier neglect. Troubles treated at the
proper time need not be painful in
the least; it is only those who neglect
the early warnings who really suffer
in the end.-Dr. H. M. Wright,
Traders Bank Building.

Irwin Cobb Draws
Humorous Picture

Society Of New York, delivered last
week, Irwin s. Cobb dealt in hui
morous way with The glories Of his
native state. Following is the press
report Of the affair:
Mr.. Tobb told story Of man
who boasted TO his friends that he
had been "all over and had seen
everything" A stranger, overhearing
his boast, asked him whether he
ever had delirium tremens. The man
said he had not. "Well, then, strang-
err" was the reply, "you amt been
nowhere and you amt never seen
anything" A person who has never
been to Kentucky saint never been
nowhere, and ain't never seen moth
ing" said Mr.. Cobb.
'T might spend congenial half
hour telling the members of the
Kentucky Society what they mean in
the civic, social and economic life
Of this great city to which they have
been transplanted-of what gap
would be left in New York, big as
she is, were those who sit here to-
night suddenly removed from their
midst" said the author.
"But all this you know without
! my recalling It to you. Lack of self
appreciation was never fault of a
true Kentuckian. Some are, may
say, almost passionately addicted to
themselves.
"There is a legend that Ken
tuckians are greater of statue than
the citizens of any other state, with
the exception of Tennessee. l think
this impression is due to the fact
that every time a Kentuckian re-
members where he came from he
rears back so far he seems at least
eighteen inches taller than he really
is. We are of the breed that can
strut sitting down.
'Unaccustomed as I now am to
public drinking, I find that guests
at a public dinner do not bear with
speaker so kindly as they did in
the days before wine, women and
song were succeeded by Bevo, your
own wife and congregational sing
ing.
"But there is one subject touch
ing which / feel that I am on safe
ground, and that is the subject Of
Kentucky. Boneheads may make her
dry. Her mint patches may languish
vainly for the Kentucky julep, which
originated before the revolution, and
which some people think had good
deal to do with the bringing on Of
it.
"Her distilleries may be convert
ed into fertilizer works, her corner
taverns may turn into delicatessen
shops, her Colonies no longer be full
of corn and her corn destined never
again to bring cheer to her Colonels.
"The tobacco trust, following the
example of its prototype of the in
sect world, the tobacco worm, may
cut down the second of her great
crops to the vanishing point, where

no longer the head of Columbia will
be wreathed about the fragrant in
cense of hurley leaf, but all the same
to us, she'll forever be the state
where the sun shines the brightest
the state which we love and which
tonight we toast in sparkling vichy.
'Why shouldn't the Kentuckian
be proud. Kentucky in the sisterhood
Of states enjoys a peculiar and an
unapproachable place. IF she is de-
deplorahly high in illiteracy let us
remember that in the great world
war she was one Of the foremost
among those states which led all the
rest in the physical fitness and the
willingness to serve of her manhood (;
thereby duplicating her unparalleled
record in the COS, when Kentucky
gagged on percentage of the divi-
sion of sentiment among her own
people gave, in proportion to her
Union population more volunteers
to the North than Ohio did and in
proportion to her Confederate pop
lation, more volunteers to the South
than did Florida; sending to both
armies more recruited troops than
she had enrolled voters.
eve may not lead the nation in
finance, although occasionally we
do breed a Coleman du Pont, but we
produce more poets to the acre than
any like area of the worlds habit
able surface. Not all Kentuckians
write poetry, but all Kentuckians
think poetry.
"Her population may not have
grown so fast in the last decade as
has that of some of her sister states,
West and North, but for that we are
consolidated by the reflection that it
is better for a man to be born a lone
orphan in Kentucky than for him to
be born as duly authenticated twins
in Kansas.
"Once she was the banned demo-
cratic state Of the Solid South. Late
ly she has shown a startling increase
in the number of young republicans,
which is only TO be accounted for on
the ground that up in Governor
Morrow's end OF the state there must
be a strong admixture of Belgian
hare in the population.
Performers may work their way
into her externals, but so long as
blue grass grows and pennyrile has
fragrance, what she has been, al
ways that she will be-the state
where hospitality is religion and
kindness is a creed; the state that
produced an Abe lincoln and JEFF
ferson Davis, Boone and Breck-
inridge, an Albert Sidney Johnston
and John II. Morgan; Shelby and
Clay; the State which may yet
produce a president of tomorrow,
fashioned from the Morrow of to-
dnvu

SERIOUS SYMPTOMS OF
Uranium COBWEBS

SERIOUS SYMPTOMS OF
Uranium COBWEBS
For a certain diagnosis
OF your own mentality
It is quite unnecessary
To employ a wise M. d.
If you think the League of Nations
In Gehenna should remain,
Let d soldier fresh from Flanders
Diagnose your ailing brain.
If opposed TO peaceful progress
OF the proletariat,
There are surely cObwebs somewhere
Underneath your dusty hat.
If you are a Bolsheviki
In this great Democracy,
There must be some cobwebs lurking
Where your think-tank ought to be
If you think the toiling masses
Have no right to organize
For collective human dealing,
There are cobwebs round your
eyes.
If you don't believe it pays to
Advertise what you would sell,
You have cobwebs in your belfry
And you seldom ring the bell.
