The icebergs are not conspicuously
healthy because they are icebergs;
they are icebergs because they are
healthy. Like Miss Gleitze, and the
Maori lady who ran her so close here,
they can take liberties with their bod

of confusing cause and effect isn't con-
fined to the medical profession. though
the doctors, for some reason, often
do it. Sydneyites are always saying,
Australian men are god-hke crea-
lures: look at the life-saving teams on
the beaches" They seem to forget
that youths with figures to show off
naturally gravitate to surf beaches and
that the lifesavers are the pick of them.

City Unable to Give
Further Aid to Business.
Cologne GaZette-Small shop-keepers
and others employing few persons in
their establishment have been besieg-
ing the officials in the Town Hall at
Hagen asking loans or similar assist
ance in keeping their businesses oper-
ating. Heretofore such assistance has
been rendered to tide these concerns
over more critical periods, but all APP
plicants now are advised that such
help can no longer be rendered despite
the desire of the officials to keep such
establishments solvent. The city al
ready has sustained a deficit OF f1Ve
million marks in its budget, and fur
Their contributions to business enter
priseS are out of the question. 1t has
been pointed out, however, that IT

ness assisting the employers as to
refuse further aid, and have their EN-
ployes and the latters' dependents,
become public charges, with perhaps
greater OUTLAWS of money for their sus-
tenance.
