A Little Sleep

When day is done and in the west
the sun has sunk from sight, how
grateful is the toiler's rest, through
all the hours of night! His sweat
stained garb we see him shed, he
dotfs his pipe and shoes, and in
cheap but useful bed he stretches
out to snooze. Against his sleep the
rumbling roar of cities can't prevail; :;
we hear the music of his snore, like
saving through a nail The cats
may yowl, the dogs may bark, the
bughouse mules may bray, but on
his mattress in the dark he'll sleep
till break OF day. The band NAV
play and tires explode outside his
donjon keep. bat all the racket of
the road can't break the toiler's
sleep. The elements may take
whack, tornadoes large OF small
may lift the rooftree from his shack
he II slumber through it al! | envy
much this worthy man, by dreamless
slumbers blest. and | admire the
toilsome plan that yields unbroken
rest. When to my couch my way /
take, quarter after nine, | know
that | shall lie awake, no childlike
sleep is mine. / do not push the
cleaning plow or WELD the rafting
fail, / hire a man to milk my COW,
and so I'm fat and stale. My days l
uselessly employ in pastimes vain
and cheap; am too lazy to enjoy
the boon of tranquil sleep.

BIG PROFIT MARGIN
/ IN HANDLING COAL
U. S. Trade Commission
Probe Also Reveals "Scalp-
ing" Increases Earnings.

Investigating the shipment of
anthracite coal through distribution
channels on its way from the mines
to consumers, the Federal Trade Com
mission has found a number of in
stances in which domestic coal was
handled with an unusually large
profit margin and also was "scalped"
or passed from hand to hand with
added profits en- route.
The first of a series of weekly re-
ports on the subject, issued today,
covered the findings from whole
salers' reports for the week ended
September %. The study was made.
the commission said, at the direction
of President Coolidge.
A wholesale margin of 25 cents a
ton on coal handled, the commission
recognized in the industry" while
margins of IS cents or more a ton
were said to be the result of whole
salers charging what "the traffic will
bear" Taking all the domestic coal
handled during the week ended Sep
tember %, the report continued, it
was found that 9.S per cent had been
handled on a 81 per ton margin.
Profit Margin Great.
On II per cent of the coal the
wholesaler had taken rs cents per
ton, while So per cent was handled
for charge of so cents per ton and
81 per cent moved at a margin of 25
cents per ton. The wholesalers moved
all of these shipments. the report
said, without physically handling
the coal"
AS to the passing of coal from
dealer to dealer in the wholesale
market, the commission said, it was
found that so per cent of all the
domestic hard coal produced during
the week had been handled only by
one wholesaler. Another 90 per cent
of the coal for the week had been
oought by one wholesaler from an
other before delivery to the retail
trade or to consumers. About per
cent was reported to be bought from
the mines by one wholesaler, who
sold 1t to another. and an additional
z per cent had been bought by one
wholesaler from another in the same
trade and sold to a third wholesaler.
Gross profits and additional details
OF the trafflc, it was announced, will
De taken up in later studies.

STATE Department
DENIES PART IN LOAN
Corrects Erroneous Impression
Regarding U. S. Bankers Aid to
Salvador Government.

The State Department yesterday
announced that IAN erroneous i'm

the Washington government to the
recent s6.oo0.o0o loan to Salvador by
an American banking group had been
created as result of statements in
circulars advertising for subscrip-
tions to the loan and also in press
reports.
1T has been stated that a secret
agreement has been made by the
Department of State" the statement
said. This is misleading state

sense a treaty.
"The Department of State has no
relation to the matter except with
respect to facilitating the arbilra-
ton and determination of disputes
that may arise between the parties
and the appointment of collector
of customs in case of default"
The understanding at the State De-
partment Is that all of the $4,000, 600
provided for in the loan Is to be
used for the discharge of outstanding
public debts of the Salvador govern
ment with the exception of $400, 900,
which may be devoted to other pur-
poses under the terms of the con-

cal country with the thermometer

free from prostrations as the summer
temperature Of Chicago or New York.
First Aid Treatment
Heat prostrations may occur to
persons who have moved from one
part of the country to another and
are sunable to adapt themselves to
the different degree Of heat. In ex-
trene cases Of heat prostration
death may occur quicqly. There is
always a chance. however, If treat
ment is applied in time TO save the
patient. 1t is a good rule to always
be on your guard. If you feel your.
self getting dizzy or becoming faint
with the tendency to stomach sick
ness seek a cool place at once and
lie down.
The layman may aid in giving sim
pie treatment to those suffering
from heat prostration. Remove to a
cool place. If the heart action is
weakened and the skin is cold be
sure TO place patient in a recumbent
position.
Give stimulants and keep body
warm. If the head and skin are
hot and the eyes red and heavy, ap-
ply cold water, or rub the surface

have never seen girl who has
changed as greatly as Alice has in
the few months she has been over
here. England and the British out
look have done her a world of good.
She is a glorious specimen of woman
hood.
She is just as bright and poppy as
ever and sometimes she amuses me
and shocks the Britishers by her
American slang, but for all that she
has wonderful poise and is developing
into most splendid woman.
She was greatly perturbed over
Leslie's condition and most delighted
when she received the cable which
told her that the Prescotts had adopt
ed little boy.
Alice is exceedingly popular among
the people whom the Stokleys have
gathered about themselves. I told
her the other day that she probably
would go home taking with her a
a title. as more than one young
Britisher, with a prefix to his name,
is hanging about her.
And do you know. the child really
blushed. This made me look the
young chaps over very carefully
when they came to see her the next
time and for the life Of me could
not see that she gave any one of
them the preference. She told me in
confidence that evening. when I tried
to pump her more, that when she
married she was going to marry an
American.
Hurrah for our side of the At
lantic.
I'm rather sorry that 1 did not act
upon your suggestion and bring
those pearl beads over to Alice. She

There is a distinct saving in the
use of vegetables. They are cheaper
than fruit in the first place and make
It possible to decrease the amount of

acts as a sort of filler or foundation
