A WARNING TO REMEmBER.

Even though perils are fully under
stood 1t requires frequent reference to
them or the occasional loss of life be-
cause Off the non-respect for them to
obtain for them the proper consideration
as prevention against untinely death.
Highway perils fire dangers, the men
ace of explosives. weapons and poisons
left where children can get them are
nothing new. Seemingly everyone knows
of them but each day there are chose
whose lives are snuffed out because an
improper amount of attention is given
to them. There are times when it seems
as if deaths from such causes were al
most necessary in order to get people to
give proper thought to such matters and
yet in spite of the large number whose
lives are taken in such a manner it is
certain that there will continue to be
others.
For that reason It is pertinent warn
ing that is given by Professor Henderson
of Yale when he urges automobile own
ers to refrain from starting UP the mo-
tor of the car in the sgarage in order to
warm it Up while the garage door is
closed. Many have lost their lives through

the information of those who are not
disposed to heed such errors repeated
yarning is desirable, and to most PEG.
pie it is preferable to respect it without
| taking any chances.
In the exhaust of car is large
amount of carbon moEoxide, a deadly
gas that acts quickly, When garage
| is closed it requires but little time to
i'll the building with such fumes, which
| overcome person with little warning.
The only safe course to pursue is to leave
the, door of the garage open, or as Pro
fesser Henderson points out, If the door
must be kept closed there should be a
pipe attached to the exhaust which would
| discharge it outside
Precautions under such circumstances
are decidedly simple and in view of the
fact that human life is at stake it would
seem that they were worth giving the
attention. And it is during the winte.
season that the warming up of engines
Is mostly likely to be attempted inside

Governor Miller opposes it because the

sades. Even medieval events are but |
memories there. The present town of
about 5000 souls is modern. It re-
ceived an impetus when William. then
emperor of Germany, visited the city in
1898, went the rounds of German schools
and soap factories. ordered tablets to be
erected to remember him by. and granted
a subsidy on account Of the fourishing
German colony there:
1.-The German colony had its inception
in the German Templars, a religious
community formed at Wurtemberg, which
founded it's first colony at Haifa in 1868.
and so fiourished that later it acquired a
section Of the town which was selected
and aided by citizen of Buffalo, n. Y.
Originally the Templars had vision of
a kingdom of God on this earth which
must fructify in the Old Testament Land
of Promise and regenerate Europe. Later
other Germans than members of this sect
were admitted. and after the kaiser's
visit the purpose became avowedly TO
promote German interests.
''Haifa lies on the southern and shell
tered side of the wide-mouthed Bay Of

Color GFadations
In yesterdays article you saw that
the redhaired person is not so fiery
tempered and impulsive as most peo-
pie seem to think. Previous articles
also have discussed the various indi-
cations of dark and light hair and
dark and light eyes.
Now to get down to the detailed
scale Of measurement.
The exceptionally irritable, inpati-
ent, FESTIVE, fiery type Is not the red
head, but the albino. with hair that is
such light yellow that 1t is virtually
white, and eyes that are virtually col
orless. But remember that if you find
this kind of hair with eyes that are a
decided blue or brown, you haven't the
true aIbino. Always measure first by
the eyes, then make allowances for
the hair and the complexion.
Next comes the nexon-haired type
with very light blue eyes and she'll

fire than gray ones. After this on scale
Is golden hair and fair skin, provid-
ed it is associated with gray or blue
eyes. Then comes red or auburn hair
| with gray or blue eyes, a fair skin
and most likely freckles.
Green eyes, though lighter rank
with dark blue eyes, and when running
true to type are found with light brown
hair and a medium skin. With dark
brown eyes and a creamy skin. Then
come eyes and hair Of dark brown with
a decided though not extreme brunette
skin.

served three years; and the suffering
and failure to receive pay were alb
solutely universal. Leaving the pre-
liminaPy discussion with the civil au-
thorities, who were responsible for
much of the trouble, the commander
in chief appealed to the Governors of
the Northern States for a force of mi
litia to meet any attacks from New
York, and declined to interfere until
he found that the passion had passed
and he could find troops who would
at all hazards execute his will.
1t was one of the most difficult Pc
RODS of the war. and was so handled
that the commander in chief retain
ed his prestige and regained control
of the army. Gen. Clinton received in
formation of the revolt as early as had
Washington, on the morning of the 23d
army with propositions looking to their
return to British allegiance.
Clinton had entirely misconceived the
nature of the disaffeetion, and his
agents were detained in custody. II
is sufficient to say that a portion OF
the troops were discharged without
critical examination of their enlist
ments, on their own oath; that many
promptly re-enlisted; that as soon as
Washington found that he had troops
who did not share in the open mutiny
he used force and suppressed the dis
affection and that the soldiers them
selves hung several agents who brought

invited them to abandon their flag ant
join his command.

Houses will be cheaper still. accord
ing to Sir Chas. Ruthen Director
General of Housing)
Addressing the Institution of Sani-
tary Engineers at Holborn restaurant
last night, he said that in January the
cost of an ordinary non-parlour house
was fbS36, and the parlour type fb947.
In september this year the cost was
fh6G9 for the non parlour- house and
fb666 for a parlour house. He believ-
ed that in a short time we would be
within reach of a 1b500 parlour type
Of house, and that would be the rock
bottom price of the postwar house.
1t would represent house which be-
fore the war cost from fb250 to ID 800.

tinuour increase since the date of the
Armistice. The high proportion of per-
sons in receipt of relief in June, one
in 20 of the population, has not been
equalled since 1873. This great in
crease during the June quarter is at
tributable mainly to the dispute in the
coal industry, which began April
and did not end till july 1, and at
fected many other industries.

CORRECTING A BAD PRACTICE.

Christmas is matter of only a few
weeks away, and it is at Christmas time
that an unusual number of packages are
sent through the mail At that time It
is customary for the postal authorities
to give warning to the public about care
fully wrapping and securely tying their
properly directed packages to insure de-
livery.
But the need OF directing attention to
such details is by no means confined
to the Christmas season. There are
those who are each day sending MANY
packages and from the reports of those
who have to handle them there is an op-
portunity for a great Improvement on
the part of the shipper.
1t is unreasonable to expect that bum
dies and packages that are done I'D in
f1imsy manner and insecurity tied can
be subjected to the handling they are
bound to get in going through the mail
and stand good chance of being deliv-
cred intact. 1t is reasonable that sufF-
cient attention should be given to the
proper wrapping of them in order to give
| the proper amount of protection.
Long has it been the claim of those
| who handle foreign goods or goods des-
tined for foreign ports. and this applies
to the baiing of cotton and the Grating
Of machinery, that the American ship

a large degree the failure of goods to

in proper condition can be traced to tbs
| lack of proper attention to the Grating

lessness and careiessness are doubtless
responsible and it is plainly evident, al
those who are trying to correct the prac
tice state, that this longer such condf
tons are allowed to exist the worse the,

prospect of a Southern campaign,
which was at all times unpopular
with Northern troops, a dissatisfac-
ton was developed, which at last
broke forth in open mutiny and pre-
emptory demand for discharge.
This irritation was aggravated on
the part of the troops by hunger. cold
and poverty. Marshall says. The win
