GET PAPERS TO LONELY MEN
How the Crew OF the Cross Rip Limit
ship In Nantucket Sound Re-
ceives Its Mail.

One of the most unusual newspaper
deliveries on the Atlantic coast is thai
by which members of the crew of the
Cross Rip lightship in Nantucket
sound receive their daily papers, AL
though the lghtship is almost in the
center of the sound, rough piece OF
water in stormy weather, the men re-
ceive their papers nearly every day
says an exchange.
The deep sea" delivery is made by
one Of the island steamers, usually the
Sankaty, which summer visitors to
Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket
know well. These vessels pass close
to the Cross Rip lightship on their
way across the sound, bound from Oak
Bluffs. Martha's Vineyard, to Nan
tucket.
The daily papers are delivered on
the outward bound trip, which begins
at New Bedford. When the island
steamer is almost half way across
the sound and nearly abeam of thu
hghtship members of the crew roll up
small bundles of papers, tying them
securely with Irvine and line them
selves along the rail. The helmsman
Of the steamer brings his vesesl as
close as possible to the lightship. some
times within Is feet, and the news
paper deliveries let 60 their volley.
1t Is poor day when half a dozen
rolls of paper do not land aboard for
the men so far from land and other
wise newsless. Sometimes the bun
dies drop alongside and are fished up
with l0ng-handled nets.

OLD-TIME COLD CURE
DRINK HOT TEAL

Get small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea at any pharmacy. Take a
tablespoonful of the tea, put cup of
boiling water upon it, pour through a
sieve and drink "a teacup full at any
time during the day or before retiring.
1t is the most effective way to break
cold and cure grip, as it opens the
pores of the skin, relieving congestion.
Also loosens the bowels, thus breaking
up cold.
Try it the next time you suffer from
a cold or the grip. 1t is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.

How AIrpIanes Aid Exploration.

Several hitherto unknown lakes and
river valleys have been discovered In
Jasper park, Canadian Rockies,
through the use Of government air
planes, says the Montreal Star. This
work was undertaken by the High Riv-
er air station, Alberta, and three ex-
perimental flights were carried out
over the region for the purpose of ex-
ploration and reconnaissance. The Ca
madam air board report states: "a
flight was made on each of three sue
cessive days with gratifying success,
and the possibilities of the use of air
craft for exploration in mountain
regions, and In the administration and
the general maintenance Of the park
system was proved without a doubt"

Why Eat starchy FoodsY

Why do we eat starchy foods fried
In fat when we know that the fat sur
rounds the starch grains and prevents
the digestive fluids from reaching
them? Starches are carbohydrates.
Their digestion il started by diges-
tive juices In the mouth. Fats are not
digested until they reach the lntes-
tines. Hence the layer of fat which
surrounds the starch particles In fried
foods is not broken down until 1t is
too late to digest the starch.
Butter and olive oil are fats which
are emulsified In the stomach, and
foods fried In them are not considered
digestible.-Popular Science Monthly.

CoNOUERING WORRY.

WHAT worries you most in life?
- Generally we buck up and face
cur big problems squarely. Our at
titude is, 'I'll do the best I can. 1t
won't do any god to worry about
it." Then we turn around and wor-
~ about trifling incident or situa-
ton.
DR.. Donald Gregg, able physician
If Wellesley, Mass, writes: Henry
may wake up after sleeping on his
arm and be bit amused to find his
hand numb William, whose father
has just had shock involving his
left side, may be quite upset when
he finds his arm numb from the
same cause that failed to distress
Henry"
Worry is a psychopathic condition,
an emct ional disease. Sometimes it
is caused by unconscious vanity
an exaggerated conception of the
importance of ourselves and our sur
roundings.
Most worries are imaginary. Doc
tors lately notice an exceptionally
large number Of patients with moth
ing really wrong with them, yet they
are terribly worried" All they
need is the physicians reinsurance
that the best thing is to forget it.
Now that the medical profession
IS beginning to understand the en-
docrine glands of the body, peculiar
cause of worry is discovered. This
type of worry sometimes takes the
form Of constant apprehension Of
impending disaster, fear Of moth
ing in particular. caused by over Sc
erection of certain chemicals by the
thyroid and adrenal glands

E DITO RIAL
COAL OUTLOOK.

NloN miners go back to work in
most of the Central Competitive
District, the strike over. Other dis
triets will flock to the band-wagon.
Eliminating Sundays and holidays.
miners were idle about 115 DAYS on
account Of the strike.
The union miner, however, normal
ly is idle 100 working days a year,
chiefly when mines are shut down
for want of orders.
Reserve supplies of coal are prac-
tically exhausted, and production is
far behind that the miners are fairly
we'll assured of steady work until
next spring.
Doing little subtraction, YOU find
that they really are "out only about
two weeks work. They took THEN
years unemployment in one dose in
stead of homeopathically.
During the strike it was demon
strated that the non-union mines, if
they get enough cars, can furnish
at least 100000 tons of soft coal
a. week.
The country is using about 5000.
GOO tons a week
Cpen-shop mines are able to sup
ply five-eighths of the nations coal
needs. And the. non-union mine OBJ
orator can undcrsel, in a dull mar
ket, because he< has cheaper labor.
Making up the coal deficit should
keep both union and non-union
mines busy steadily through the win
ter, Next spring, when there will
be more coal than buyers, the con
sumer will begin to have his day
again.
One permanent effect that is
emerging from this coal strike is a
big leap forward in the use of fuel
oil. Caught in the pinch, many in
dustrial plants that never before
used anything except coal and coke
have installed oil burners.
Fuel oil gives a hotter fire than
soft coal. Increase in its use is
logical, for it is a by-product,
To the selling price of coal, most
operators now will be able to add
the cost of keeping their properties
idle during the strike. This cost i'm
cludes such large items as interest on
investment and the overhead that
goes on, strike or no strike.
Stripped to its skeleton, the real
trouble in the coal industry is po-
tential overproduction.

Large Entry Received
For Fairfield Dog Show

The annual show of the Fairfield
Kennel Club, of Noroton, on Labor
Day, will bring together one of the
rest collections of dogs seen in the
East this year. The large number Of
cash prizes have attracted an entry of
372 dogs. The German shepherds lead
these in popularity. There are fifty of
these big fellows, in spite Of the fact
that the largest kennels are not show
ing. The shepherds represent largely
the pets of the people in Fairfield
County, and many of them have never
shown before.
Cocker spaniels follow the shepherds
with thirty seven, and there are thirty
two wire-haired fox terriers. The Pc
klngese have twenty mine and the
elbows and Boston terriers twenty-four
each. One of the biggest surprises,
however, is the entry of Old English
sheepdogs There are twenty-one of
these long-haired specimens, Indicating
the breed is increasing in popularity
and also is tribute to William Prescott
Wolcott, who will Judge them. The. OK
Ridge Hunt Club, where the show is
to be held under a large tent, is situ.t
ated on the Boston Post Road.

Committee Unable
To Select Best of
Star Glass Yachts

PORT WASHINGTON, L. l., Sept. l.
SO evenly matched are the three
yachts selected by the racing commit
tee Of the Long Island Star Associa-
tion, Western division, that it was i'm
possible for the expert yachtsmen to
decide, after four tests this afternoon.
which one would be the best to up-
hold the yachting traditions of this
part Of the country.
The yacht of the Star class--little
sloops that they are-will race against
the. choice yachts of that type from
from as far as California.
Two Bayside Yacht Club Stars-the
Maia, ownad by Benjamin l.. Linkfield
and William L. Inslee's Taurus-and
the lrex, the property Of Ernest A. Rat
sey, OF the Larchmont Yacht Club, were
selected by the racing cmmittee to par
ticipate in the elimination race TO-DAY
with view to determining which one
would be the best to represent the
Western division.
Tn four trials this afternoon were
held under varied conditions. The dis
tance was the same in the four in
stances, but the conditions under which
the short races were run were not the
same.
The first trial resulted in victory
for the Maia. There was light, albeit
steady, northeast breeze as the Yachts
went around the course, the Maia cover
ing the distance in 44 minutes Sec
onds, the Irex in 44:15 and the Taurus
in 44:32.
The same breeze was in evidence
during the greater part of the second
race and this time the Irex won in
l hour, minutes and 40 seconds. The
Maia was second, 1:05:35, and the Tau
rus third, 1:03:46.
The wind shifted for the third trial
to the southwest This time the Maia
won again in. 1:15:00, the Irex being
second in 1:15:07 and the Taurus
third in 1:15:35.
When the fourth trial was raced the
southwest breeze strengthened consid-
erably, and this time the Taurus won
in 45 minutes and second. The Irex
was second in 46:03 and the Maia third
in 46:14.
If the Maia had won the last trial
the Linkfield yacht would undoubtedly
have been chosen. but, as it was. the
committee was still in doubt and an
other series of trials will be raced on
Sunday to determine which Yacht
shall represent the Western division
in the national classic to be sailed off
Execution Light on September l8, 19
and 20. ~
