Character Revealed by Old Shoes.

There is good deal of character re-
vealed In a pair of old shoes If one
wants to study them. Shoes that are
worn away on the outside denote q
disorderly and unsystematic mind. The
shoe which is worn away at the toe
before 1t has commenced to so any
where else denotes conceit and self
satisfaction but hard-headed bust
ness person that is apt to get along.
The heel worn away and the toe
turned up indicates tinge of vulgar

You've Got to Hit the haIlbut.

The halibut feeds on the bottom Of
the sea, and when he is hooked he al
lows himself to be drawn toward the
top without very much of protest.
The struggle commences the instant
his nose energies from the water, and
the possibility Of fight is anticipated
by hard blow on the head. This
blow must be sure and hard, for If
there is any compassion for the fish
he is as good as gone, for any OPP
pOrtunity to struggle means its escape.

Slavery In Scotland,

Less than n century and a quarter
ago the workers in the coal mines and
salt mines Of Scotland were legally
bound to the places in which they
were employed, were bought and sold
with them, and when they attempted
to escape were pursued, arrested and
returned. Their children, If once en-
ployed, became subject to the same
servitude.

COLONIZATION WILL
REDUCE TYPHOID
GERMS IN WATER
Experience In the City Of Cleveland
Proves COLONIZATION Is Very
Beneficial Says U. ).
Department.

Washington. How a community,
by too strenuous protest against an
unpleasant but transitory condition,
can condemn,itself for years to an an
nual recurrence Of disease, is strongly
brought out in report by DR.. r. G,
Perkins, Of the Cleveland Division of
Health, recently reprinted by the U. s.
Public Health Service.
Cleveland, says the reports, obtains
its water through two cribs placed AZ.
miles out in Lake Erie and delivers it
through two pumping stations, at one
of which it is filtered an dat both of
which 1t is chlorinated.
COLONIZATION was begun in 1911,
when the growth Of the city and the
increasing pollution of the lake water
made treatment essential. After num-
erous experiments the dosage" of
chlorine necessary to make the water
safe was determined. This amount
was added and the typhoid curve fell
with unusual sharpness. Unfortunate
ly, conditions compelled the delivery
of the doctored water through the
mains in some parts of the city so
shortly after 1t was treated that the
taste orr chlorine was still apparent.
Much complaint followed, but was
dying out when early in 1912, a flood
in the Cuyahoga River, which enters
the lake at Cleveland, carried sewage
and trade wastes out into the cribs,
through which they reached the city
main. The trade waster gave the wa
ter an unpleasant taste, which every
body promptly blamed on the chlorina-
ton.
The mayor bent beneath the storm
Of protest. BY his order the dosage"
of chlorine was reduced and during the
ensuing mine years 1t has never been
high enough, the report says, to fully
counteract the ever-present pollution
in the raw water.
The typhoid bacillus in drinking wa
to ris very difficult to find by labora-
tory methods, but the finding OF sew
age pollutio mis- always considered as
a warning Of its possible presence.
In 1918, In the effort to better con.
ditions, filtration plant was put into
service at the larger pumping station
whic hhandled nearly three-fourths Of
the city consumption. Laboratory
tests, however, show that sewage pol
luton Is present in the unfiltered wa
ter lin the city mains nearly half the
time and in the filtered water from
to 20 per cent. Of the time.
In 1918 and in 1920, when these tests
showed the water to be badly polluted
the number Of cases Of typhoid fevel
in the city that could not be traced Il
any cause other than the water wa
J double those that occurred in 1918
when the tests showed the water to b
! much better. From this the report ar

Any two fathers or mothers can
scrap over their children. But 1t takes
imagination almost something Of gen.
ius, to have a real battle over the
children which don't exist. Hyman
Schwarzman and Frank Armese, both
of Long Island, were brought before
the magistrate the other day for fight
ing They declared that the fight had
been purely domestic one and there
was no reason for court interference.
The trouble had been over their child
rem, they explained. How many child
rem have your" asked the Judge of
Frank Armese. "None," said he. Mr..
Schwarzman admitted the absence Of
them in his own home. 1.-THE fight
wasn't over children we've got, Judge"
they said. at was over the children
we might have, and what they would
be like If we did have them" Among
other difficulties, poor Mr. Schwarz-
man had lost his false teeth in the en-
counter. But the matter was finally
arranged and the two partisan fathers
agreed to fight no more over their
hypothetical children.
