MUST HAVE SERVICE in
RESTAURANT. SAYS POLICE


Tampa. Jan. 7.-Service is an es-
sential ingredient of fried trout ana
French fried potatoes, according 10
Police Lieutenant J. E. Carter, ana
person failing to receive 1t is en-
tirely justified in leaving the 1000
on the table unpaid for.
A man was brought before Lieu
tenant Carter recently on complaint
of local restaurant proprietor tha'
when he came from the kitchen with
the trout and potatoes the customer
had gone. The customer explained
that his appetite had waxed sharp
as he waited at the table to see the
proprietor in the dual role OF waiter
and hotel clerk. Besides bidding the
wishes of other patrons in the res
taurant to the chagrin OF the man
who desired trout and potatoes, ne
went upstairs to show guest MS
room. He tired of waiting, the GUS
toner said, and went across the
street to appease his appetite. he
was quite right, Lieutenant Garter
said.

NEWBERRY A PITIFUL
SIGHT IN SENATE.

On Monday Senator Newberry,
whose seat has been in contest for
nearly two years, will deliver a
speech in the senate in defense OF
his title to the high office. 1t will
be his first utterance. He has sat
for days and days and listened to the
most vital issues of the day dis
cussed and disposed of with never
the courage to raise his voice, know
ing full we'll that even among his
colleagues it would be unwelcome
And yet he persists, and yesterday
and today is listening to the excori-
atoms of senators who begrudge such
a high place attained by such meth
DDS as those employed by Newberry
and his supporters.
In debate on the question yester-
day Senator Heflin, of Alabama, de-
clared that the people of America
twill lash from the senate every mar
who votes for Newberry." He point.
ed to those who voted for Lorimer
all but six having been defeated fol
reelection.
Republican cowardice is largely
responsible for the frequent post
ponement of the final issue of New
berry's unseating. They have beer
unwilling to al "a political scanda
which they believed might operate
injuriously upon the fortunes of the
party. sA a matter of fact the
Newberry case, in our opinion, is not
a. partisan question, and should moi
be so considered. Whether he is E
republican or a democrat is of nc

some of the tourist towns of the state
were overlooking the rent boosting
game, and that sooner or later they
would find that they had killed the
goose that was laying. This seems
to have happened. Orlando, St. Pc

proclaiming to the world that they
have reduced rents to pre-war prices.
But the St. Petersburg Independ-

cuts been made last summer the
Chamber of Commerce could have adj
vertised the fact throughout the coun-
try and thousands of people who have
stayed in the orth this season would
have come here, attracted by the low
rents. But property owners saw fit
to Jut on the same, or even higher,
rents this season as were in effect last
year, and there were large number
of prospective tourists who felt that
they could not afford these prices, SO
they stayed at home. Had they
known that the prices were to come
down they might have come here to

FAVERSHAM AT GRAND.

The very zenith of dramatic exc
cuation seems to, have been reached
in "The Sin That Was His" the new
Selznick picture, featuring William
Faversham, which opens weeks
engagement at the Grand Monday
The storya upon which the picture
was based was written by Frank
Packard, author of "The Miracle
Man." and it is question if in this
latter he has not eclipsed his former
success.
This picture tells big, gripping
story of a man against whom fate
had set her mark, his fight to cling
to the better things of life, misun-
derstandings that send him to the
depths of despair and finally his re-
juvenation through the mediums Of
good mans faith and pure wom-
ans love.
In the leading role, Faversham
seems to have caught the true spirit
in which this wonderful story was
written and his portrayal is strong
and convincing.
Lucy Cotton plays the leading
feminine role opposite Mr.. Faver-
sham, and others in the supporting
cast are: Lulu Warrenton, Pedro dc
Cordoba, Bobby Connolly, Miriam
Battista, George Stevenson, Frank
Evans and Bobby Agnew.

There Is no testimony in court that

Of IL militant housewife who seeks q
divorce from her husband. This fact,
1t appears. Is true especially when the
wIfe's case Is uncontested and the hus.

During such case In one Of the
county courts, the wife became very
loud and vOciferOus in her descrip
tions and denunciatlOns of the brutal
manner in which, she said, her spouse
hud treated her. Her testimony was
us rapid as loud. In fact her words
became jumbled and were lost In the
noisy din of her own walls.

ENGLISH FAKER HAD GENIUS
More Than Century and Half Ago
He Made Big Money With His
celestial Bed."

One Of the most brazen takers in
history was Doctor Graham. who. In
1779. opened n "Templc of Health" in
London. He had recently come from
America and had somewh here picked
up an elementary knowledge of elec-
tricity, or ut least its terminOlOgy. He
had ut his temple Il Celestial bed"
which, If a sick person slept in 1t, was
advertised to be n sure cure.
This wonder-wOrking piece of fur
niture was made by one Denton. on
Doctor Graham's order. 1t was beau
tifully carved, covered with silk dam
ask, supported by % glass pillars. and
surmounted by richly carved and
gilt canopy from which crimson cur
talns with fringe and tasscl were sus-
pended.
In his advertisement he claimed
"This bed is magnetico-electric. In n
neighboriEg closet is placed cylinder
by which l communicate celestial fire
to the bedchamber. that fluid which
animates and WHITES all" He charged
admission to see the bed. To sleep In
it cost ESQ ($2JO). Later the rate was
reduced to f25 ($l2J). Graham was a
skillful stage-mnnnger and made II lot
of money with his celestial bed.

Civilization and Climate,

Prof. Ellsworth Huntington Of Yale
university marked on u map of the
world the areas where climate was
most favorable to human effort. He
called these areas zones Of climatic
energy. Then he delved into history
and plotted map Of civilization. He
found that the two maps coincided.
His conclusion was that "cllmate has
great influence on health, and its ac-
ton on civilization In this way prob
ably Is greater than its direct effect
or than the indirect results arising
through agriculture or food"
Professor Huntington took the rec
ords of pIcceworkers in Pittsburgh fac
tories and students ut West Point and
Annapolis and found that both phys
ical and mental work varied In har-
mony with the weather, according to
the Detroit News. He found that the
death rate also tluctunted seasonully
according to the weather. He there
fore concluded that no high civlliZa-
tion Is possible In tropical regions. or
where weather conditions are adverse.
No high accomplishment was held pos
sible where temperature and humidity
are unfavOrable.

RACE OF WORLD coNQuERoRs
Saracens came Within a Short sp.vs
OF Controlling the Then Entire
Known Earth.

The Saracens, who rose to such
power during the Middle ages, were
originally only tribe of wandering
Arabs who came from the Syro Ara
oian desert and harassed the Roman
| empires frontiers. They were called
Saraceni by the Romans and Greeks.
Later on the name of Saracens was
gi:sn to all Moors, Arabs and Turks
IN fact, to all Mohammedans. or I'm
hdels" as they were called. DR.. John
William Draper, in his book, 1.-THE
Conflict Between Religion and Sci
ence'-where he gave u long account
OF the Saracens-said, In describing
the c0nQuests they made after the
death Of Mahomet: "Never In the his
tory Of the world had there been so
rapid and extensive u propagation Of
any religion us Mohammedanism. 1t
was now dominating from the center
of Asia to the western verge Of
Africa" At one time or another the
saracens conquered Egypt, Persia,
Syria, North Africa and Palestine.
They pushed their conQuests into
Spain under Tarik in I'll, and after
1
announcing their intention Of conquer
Ing Italy. advanced into France as far
as the banks Of the Loire. Charles
Martel (about 6SS-741), the Frankish
or French ruler, In great battle
which took place near Tours, defeated
the Invaders. and 100000 Saracens are
said to have been killed, while the re-
malnder retreated to Spain. In saving
his own country Charles Martel saved
the rest Of Europe from being overrun
by the Moslen. hOrdes. Gibbon, In
speaking Of these historical events,
made the following statement: "A
victorious line Of march had been pro.
longed above a thousand miles from
the rock Of Gibraltar to the banks of
the Lolre-a repetition Of an equal
space would have carried the Saracens
to the confines Of Poland and the
Highlands Of Scotland"

Hioh Temperatures Favor Crops.

Washington. - High temperatures
and abundant sunshine were declared
by the weather bureau In Its weekly
weather and crop review to have been
generally favorable for crop growth.
cultivation and harvesting throughout
the country.
Exceptions to the generally fnvOra-
BILE conditions were noted by the bu-
reau in the extreme Northwest, where
it was too wet, in the district from the
lake region eastward where the nights
were rather cool and in many regions
from the Ohio and Mississippi valleys
westward, where there was no need Of
additional rain.
Spring wheat generally made good
progress with beneficial rains In North
Dakota. Rain, however. was needed
in Minnesota and some parts of South
Dakota.
The crop deteriorated or made only
poor progress In Iowa for the same
reason and in most Rocky mountain
and far northwestern districts. where
not irrigated, the same damage was
reported. q.
Rain was needed. according to re-
ports, in many parts OF the corn belt,
including western and northern por-
tiOns of Iowa, central Illinois, north
central and western Nebraska, and
the greater part of Indiana. Rain,
helped the crop in eastern Kansas,
