PUNISHED FOR USING FORK
In 1850 the instrument was Con.
sldsred to 30 the Invention Of r,
the Evil One.

Investigations made as to the exact
period when people gave up eating
with their fingers and resorted to forks
have failed to give definite results. I;
1t is known. however, that, In the
year 1850, In Constantlhople. the
daughter-in-law Of Orseleolo, doge Of
Venice, used fork to convey food
from plate to mouth and thereby
greatly scandalized the faithful who
appear to have considered this in
novation as an invention of the evil
one.
Saint Peter Damien relates the
affair with considerable pious indig-
nation and, after explaining how the
Venetian princess made use of little
gold fork instead of eating with her
fingers, adds: sS
"But the Almighty Father made
known to this woman how Odious to
Him was her vanity, and His wrath
was made manifest unto her. SO that,
brandishing over her head the blade Of
divine Justice, He straightway caused
every part of her body to rot away"
All this for the heinous crime Of us
Ing q fork! AS a matter Of sober fact,
the doge's daughter-in-law and her
husband were carried Off in the great
plague Of 1850, among the victims Of
which, 1t may safely be said. were
many of the faithful who ate with
their fingers.-From lie Petit Parisien.

can we use the Government-own

the meeting Of these needs? President

Wood Ships Colossal Error.
At the height Of Its operations, Oc.
tober 1920, the Shipping Board had
1877 steel ships plying between our
shores and those OF foreign markets.
With the decline which has come in
world trade. We are now (July -, op-
Grating 437 steel ships, of total Of g..
509,4S5 deadweight tons, and have 993
steel ships, of a total Of 6.644,445 tons,
tied UP.
For the purposes OF the future, In
surveying the Governments feet, we
may eliminate the wooden ships, the
creation OF which, to my mind. was
colossal error that even war cannot
forgive. Certainly the then Admin
istration had ample warning through
General GOethals OF the tragedy OF
waste the wooden-ship program en-,
/ tailed.
Thus, the Governments problem OF
temporary operation and ultimate dis.
position Is involved In the 1880 steel
| ships which /. possesses.
When Shipping Board operations
were at their height. American vessels
carried IS per cent OF the value OF
our in'and-out foreign commerce. To.
dav with business depressed. we are
carrying but IS per cent; this due
largely to the fact that In time OF sore,
depression. the nations with either
or both old established lines and low
or standards Of living make 1t hard
for US to compete.
However. the 447 steel ships the
Government Is today operating are
covering practically every trade route
In the world, insuring constant access
to the markets available for the prod.
uct Of America.
Fleet Kept Freight Rates Down.
Immediately after the close OF the
war, had we not possessed the Gov
ernment-owned feet. there is no doubt
that freights would have scared even
higher than they did; and today were
Americas Government-owned tonnage
withdrawn from the seas, our traders
would pay increased tolls to foreign
owners. So We must remember that
while the operation OF the fleet is cost.
ing us millions, 1t Is saving us mil
lions In freights and insuring us con
tinuous relations with our customers
The Shipping Board, including ad
ministrative expense, cost Of tie-uv
and maintenance Of Its unused feet
and the operation Of over 400 ships
Is being run at cash outlay OF the
Treasury approximating $4,000, ,00(
annually. This does not take into &C
count the cost Of the ships and conse
ausnt capital charges.

Since it bbgan operation July l, the
fleet has seized and confscated II boats

FIVE CENTER is BACK.
Demand for Cheap Cigar Has Been Met
in Chicago.

Chicago, Aug. tBy the Associated
Press Reused from its moribund
lethergy BY the demand Of the palates
Of thousands Of smokers, the five-cent
cigar is back with its multi-colored
banners streaming.
In shop windows and on cigar count
ers everywhere the nickel smoke prod

Of shapes and varieties, while gigantic
billboard advertisements are sending
forth their message of this return to

What the country needs most is a

tributed to Mark Twain. And those
smokers, who saw the one time FIVE
cent brands mount to six, seven, eight
and sometimes ten cents, during the
period of soaring prices, now have
plenty to select from.
Tobacco merchants, cigar wholesalers
and tobacconists all admit that the
five-cent cigar is the fastest moving ar
ticle in the trade but they disagree as
10 its merits. Retail dealers are inclined
to the belief it is az good as any OF the
old brands which climbed during the

the cost of materials and labor is still

IN BOSTON DAIRY MARKETS.
Butter Prices Remain Practically I'm
changed from Last Week.

Boston, Aug. Local iobbng
prices on butter, cheese and eggs re-
manned as heretofore. Butter was1s "a
lc a pound lower at Chicago but eggs
remained unchanged there. The best
grades Of butter were H@hc lower at
New York, but other grades, as well
as eggs, remained unchanged On the
WATERFOWL, N. Y, cheese board I9Ac
was bid and 1870 asked, with no price
made. At Gouverneur, NJ ", cheese
was quoted at l9c contrasted with
1870 a week ago.
In reviewing the butter market for
the week ending Saturday, the gov
eminent says: practically since July
l, because of the cnrtailed demand
for storing receivers have been bur.
dened with heavy accumnlations. Only
the hope that consuming outlets would
become larger, that receipts would de-
crease more rapidly or, that the export
ers would take considerable quantities
of butter prevented receivers from
more strenuous pushing goods for sale.
When these outlets failed to relieve
the situation, dealers during the week
became desperate, and by slashing
prices, managed to clear away large
part OF the accumulation.
Local jobbing prices on butter,
cheese and eggs follow:
