OVERLOOKING THE BEST BET

If the city council is really looking for a
way to leave something real handy for the use
of the new City Manager administration the
way is open to it as for weeks the aldermen
have been over looking the one best bet to put
lot of money into the city treasury.
Some time ago the Attorney General ruled
that it was entirely in keeping with the state
laws for cities to pass ordinances against the
sale of intoxicants and provide for the filming
and other punishment of people who violate
these ordinances. Cities and counties through
out the state have hurried to put such ordin-
ances on their statute books. The County
3oard of Kenosha county may enact such an
ordinance at its next meeting but as most of
he charges for violations of the prohibition
Jaws come right in the city of Kenosha the city
could secure considerable sum for the treas
ury by having just such an ordinance.
Legislation Of this kind would rpt only bring
money into the city treasury but it would make

Daily Health Hint
By DR. R. H BISHOP.

The rate and the comfort of diges-
ton is influenced by the proportions
of protein, fat and carbohydrates eaten.
Water passes through the stomach
very quickly. Carbohydrates tend to
pass out of the stomach faster than
prOteins and proteins faster than fats.
Mixtures Of protein and carbohy-
drate go faster than proteins alone,
but more slowly than carbohydrates.
Mixtures of protein and fat, on the
other hand, go slower than either
alone.
This retarding effect of fat is an ad-
vantage to some, a disadvantage to
others. The healthy stomach finishes
up its work quickly and often gives its
possessor discomfort because of it's in
sistance for more food before meal
time
Such people can eat fat foods that
take longer time to digest, especially
if they lead an outdoor life.
Less vigorous persons with more
sluggish digestions would find fatty
foods delaying their digestion unduly;
hence we consider such foods hard to
digest.
Most people can eat large amounts
of carbohydrate foods with ease. There
are some persons, however, in whose
stomachs carbohydrates tend to fer
ment very easily, usually as result
of bad mastication, insuficiency of
gastric acid or poor muscular activity
of the stomach.
Such people need to eat less car
bohydrate foods than others and should
rely more upon proteins and simple
forms of fat for their body fuel.
In general, good digestion depends
upon:
Keeping the whole body in good con-
dition by breathing fresh air.
Taking suitable exercise.
Cultivating cheerfulness.
Observing regular meal times and
refraining from foods at other times.
Avoiding food when greatly over
wrought or fatigued, or limiting it b
simple, warm, fluid foods.
Masticating thoroughly SO that food
never goes down in large Jumps.
Paying some regard to the retard-
ing effect of fat on digestion and
avoiding large amounts of very con-
centrated or irritating foods.

it much easier to dispose of a lot of these cas-
es. The Municipal court is now clogged with
liquor cases all brought under the state law and
it is not improbable that the time of the court
will be taken up for months in hearing these
cases. With a city ordinance in operation it
would be possible for the city attorney to lift
a part of this burden from the shoulders of
the District Attorney and take care of a lot
of these eases and take care of them profitably
for the city of Kenosha. The city does not get
nickel out Of the fines paid by men arrested
and convicted under the state law but it pays
considerable amount of the expense of the trials
Of such cases.
Under a city ordinance these cases could be
disposed of in the minimum of time and it is
certain that such an ordinance would do lot
toward relieving the grand rush in the NUM-
cipal Court,
There appears to be no good reason for the
city delaying minute in the passage of such
an ordinance. Of course if the county acts be-
fore the city it is pretty certain that the lions
share OF the fines and costs will go into the
county treasury. The city would get only a
small amount of the money under such an or
dinance and get it only indirectly in possible
reduction of the county tax to be paid by the
city.
Hundreds of arrests have been made for vio-
lations of the liquor laws in Kenosha and it is
evident that the end has not been reached.
With good workable city ordinance the city
can expect to get considerable amount of
money out of such cases in the future. Ke-
nosha needs the money and the council should
lose no time in acting.

DEMAND $4,000
In DAMAGE SUIT
Victims of Grade Crossing
Accident VIII Sue C. M
& ST. P. Railroad.
MAKE DECLARATIONS

Damages in the amount of $4,000
will be demanded from the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul Railway com
pany as a result of the grade crossing
accident at Truesdell on June 31st last
which resulted in four people being
instantly killed. The victims of the
accident were Mr.. and Mrs. E. L. An
derson and Mrs. Sara Wyers of Keno
sha and Viola E. Heating of Chicago
No suit has as yet been filed in the
county against the railway company,
but a declaration of the claims of the
heirs of the victims of the accident
has been filed with the railway COM
pany by Attorney William Wallace Ne
Callum of Chicago. 1t is filed on be-
half of the relatives of Mrs. Wyers
and the Heating child. In each declar-
alton the amount of $4,000 is de-
manded.
The claim against the company on
behalf of Viola E. Heating is made by
Edwin B. Heating, the father of the
little girl, who was named as admin
istrator of her estate. In his deelara-
ton he asserts that the death of the
child was due to the negligence of the
company in the operation of trains at
a high rate of speed. The claim in
the Wyers case is made by Reiniar
Wyers, the husband of Mrs. Sara Wy
ers. The declarations in the cases are
practically identical. AS yet, no &C
ton has been filed for damages on &C
count Of the death of Mr.. and Mrs,
Anderson.

LIFE AND CHARACTER READING.
February 14th.


Aquarius people are the people who
come under the last sign of the Air
TripEcity. These people are some
times unmanageable and not always
logical, but they have comprehension
of spiritual cause and effect which is
entirely above ordinary material rea-
soning. This power is noticeable in
the Aquarius people to, considerable
degree. These people make splendid
nurses and doctors and are especially
successful in the nursing and doctor
ing of insane people, over whom they
have a wonderful control. The truest
friends and companions for persons of
this date are people born in Aries,
Saggitarius or Aquarius. The govern
ing planets are Urbanus and Saturn,
the birthstone il a sapphire. The as
trail colors are pink and nile-green.

An Essay About
Valentine s Day
By TOM SIMS.


Valentine day started 1900 years be-
fore Washington's birthday, but is only
week ahead now.
As it's starters are dead, on account
of being born too early in history, de-
tails are scarce.
Like Halloween, it was named after
the saints. It was also named long
time after the saints.
.
Every single fellow in eye olden
tymes" chose him a girl on this day
to last him year.
No single fellow, in Eye modern
tymes" chooses him girl this year
to last more than a day.
The ancent custom was for the peo-
pie to get drunk; but now only water
should get drunk.
In days of old (when nights were
cold) Valentine celebrations lasted for
three days.
Notice, however, that cutting the
three to one has nothing to do with
February being two days short.
Early to bed and early to rise and
look at your porch today and thereIl
be surprise.
Greetings on the comic valentines
are not as funny as some of those on
the serious ones.
Reckless spring poets commit their
first offenses on your porch and es-
cape into the night.
Enough "Roses are red and violets
are blue" are written to feed the
South's boil weevils.
Every married man can complete the
title verse with $50 am when the
rent falls DUE"
The true lovers send each other
sweet punches of nothings, but they
cost more than that.
Ill-tempered neighbors learn how
much of nuisance they have been
during the past year.
No one, however, should watch the
door to keep the kids from getting
run for their money.
Great noises from little valentines
will grow-but it is all more poetry
than truth.
See no evil, hear no footsteps, catch
no valentiners, and an enjoyable time
will be had by all.
