Roulognc, France, Aug, II R -- Miss Lillian Harrison, the Argentine swimmer, has admitted defeat by the English Channel and says she will mako no further attempt to swim across it's trcachcrous waters, Her fourth attempt to swim the water way from the French to the Eng fish coast yesterday almost brought her death through drowning, when she was within eight miles of the goal, Dover. She had been in the water for seven hours and five min utcs, and had reached a position better than any ever reached by channel swimmers in the same elapsed time.
 Fortunately the strong Egyptian swimmer Ishak Helmy was at her side in the water when she collapsed. With the words Catch me. Helmy, I am going down" she clutched the swimmer and when hauled aboard the accompanying Hg, she was in a scmi-conscious condition. Within q | flew moments after the start was made for the return voyage to Boul- gone, Miss Harrison revived, but she repeated many times her determine ton never 10 try again to swim the , channel.

the easiest meal you can get

All you need is a glass, spoon, some cold fresh milk-and package of BOrden's, the lmprov- ed Matted Milk. This gives you the food value of light meal, and the enjoyment of a cooling drink. It is sustaining and delici- 0uS.
 For hot weather lunches- when you are alone--or hungry in between meals and before bed time-Borden's Matted Milk hits the spot, because if is so delight full to drink and so easy to digest.
 In fact, you will quickly recOg- nize these advantages that Bor. dcn's has over ordinary malted milk:
 Higher nutritive value, because it has more milk. -.
 Greater digestiblity, because the casein is already partially predigeSted.
 More delicious flavor, because it has no nauseating sweetness.
 Whenever you want quick meal, make yourself brimming glass of B0rden's Matted Milk. The Borden Company, Borden Building, $50 Madison Avenue, New York. N. Y.

BURLESQUE MYSTERY
 IN PALACE PRODUCTION
"Thc Haunted House" Affords Laughter Rather Than Wicrd
 Thrills and Shiy,Crs
(By Herald RevieweiD

Those who would compare "The Haunted House" this weeks presen- tation by the Poli Players at the Hartford Palace theater, with "The Bat" or "The Cat and the Canary either have never seen these two plays or have peculiar mental con- dition that should be investigated. 'The Haunted House" true. is a mystery play, but it is a farcical burlesuue mystery. The Wierd, mys- terious theme is burlesqued from beginning to end and while it affords plenty of opportunity for laughs, 1t quite effectively kills any "spook thrills" that may be expected.
 However, "rhe Haunted House is q good enough comedy and a comedy of rather new type. And the acting done in this is excellent. Billy Linn undoubtedly is the star of the production. In the role Of q country constable he's a scream and without him the play very likely would be very flat. Fred Raymond as the peramental writer Of mys' tery plays who ever seeks an op' portunity to put his theories into practice, plays up to a difficult par and others in the company do wei in their parts.
 Just a hint for those who are tt see the play-watch Ed the milk man. played by Burt Smith. T' outline the plot would be to spoi the effect but 1t is one of those "un expected ending" affairs and tn whole key is in the hands of Ed, th milkman, who objects to being de tained by the police as he has go 10 get out to water his milk,

POLICE HAVE WHITE
ELEPHANT TO SELL
Indeterminate Stuff Like Flour,
Oil and Soda Ash
on Hands.

District Chemist T. T. Price today
was requested To examine u white
elephant in the hands of the police so
that the auCtioneer who will attempt
to sell it at the police unclaimed prop
erty sale May Is will know exactly
what to call it.
The elephant consists Of two truck
loads of what appears TO be soda ash
and numerous bottles of a reddish
fluid that looks like a cross between
floor oil and henna hair dye.
We'll have to get rid of this stuff. -
Chief Thomas McGrath of the store
room announced to his collea CUES,
Edward Wall and Charles Mont
gomery, in an official conference re-
garding disposal of the 9S2 parcels on
hand. IF it's soda ash ! suppose we
can say that folks here who are think
ing of making up mess of soft soap
could easily profit by bidding for it al
the sale. but well have TO see what DR..
Price says about the stuff"
The upShot of the conference was
the sending of samples of the so-called
soda ash up to Chemist Price for an
official opinion. The white elephant
came into the hands of the police
when the rightful owner failed TO
claim it after marShals had set il on
the sidewalk.
There was quite bit of specula-
ton about the fluid. Mr.. Wall main
tains that the auctioneer would be
quite right in announcing it as floor
oil. while Mr.. Montgomery conten-
ton is that it might turn out to be a
cloth-cleaning chemical that might eat
the Varnish off floor. AT any rate
the police. are going to find out what
it is they have to sell before they at
tempt to dispose of il.

No foreign secretary. he added, could

profound pacifists were quite likely
to be those who urged upon him "a

Let us go into the world. Mr..
Chamberlain continued. encouraging
others to take steps that are neces-
sary in our own country: put them IN
an equally satisfactory way OF prog
ress, and let us resolve, as the great
est world need is peace, that we VIII
give an example not merely in our
foreign policy, but in our relations
one with another, as between class
