Now that we have become wary of too much salt in sympathy with our arteries we are told that plenty of salt is good in the diet; is the staff of life so to speak At any rate it is safe to use more salt in the hot weather. Due to excessive perspiring the body throws off salt therefore one needs more of it. A Connecticut weather observer also recommends beer as good thirst quencher and a means of keeping cool. Beer has plenty of salt and big percentage of water.

In New York
BY GEORGE ROSS

New York, June 24 - The sobby say there is broken heart for every electric light on Broadway, but in Douglas Leigh's case, every other incandescent glow represents an- other bank deposit.
 For Douglas Leigh is the Sign King of Broadway, and in a short while the monument to his genius will be Times Square sign with the biggest electric letters in the world. The letters, each 30 feet tall, will be spraWled over a blazing area of 1O8 by 90 feet.
 Leigh's new sign will illuminate | the virtues of certain. whiskey. Across the street, another Leigh sign casts light upon the qualities of a rival alcoholic drink, by means of an ingenious animated cartoon. And around the Rialto, the Leigh signs outnumber those of any other company.
 Twenty-eight years old, the slim, active MT. Leigh reigns, with a mazda sceptre, over the Great White VoJs AtFC JCdlo oSO, llC Sul VCy C0 CllC illuminated blurbs along Broadway and decided that there was consid- erable room for improvement. So he opened an office Ga cubicle con- taining desk, typewriter but no telephone), invested soc in a rub Der stamp for letterheads and sank his remaining $14950 (the proceeds of his sacrifice of a second hand Ford) in operating capital.
 And within three years he had obtained command of the electric lights that shine down on the Main Stem. The big advertising agencies that deal in sign space are baffled by his success when they fail. The space for his newest spectacular (trade-talk for a monster sign) was peddled by 40 competitors to big firms, in vain. Then the youthful MT. Leigh went out. On a trans parent four-inch square of paper. he made a little drawing of the sign, and displayed it to the whis- key people. They liked it and closed the deal
 Probably Still Flushing
 In flush moods, we are lured in to Fifth Avenue haberdasher every now and then. And the last time we dissolved our financial re- sources at this fashionable mems shop, the proprietor was boasting of his newest famous customer Marlene Dietrich.
 Dietrich in Mems Shop? Yes, he said, it was no mistake. The last time La Dietrich was in town, she dropped in and ordered some hacking" scarves, to be worn Ascot-style with lounge suits. It seems when they were delivered to her suite at the Waldorf, she dis covered she didn't know how to tie them and phoned the shop for help. So our friend, the proprietor, picked out the best-looking juve- nile from among his sales staff and sent him post-haste to Marlene's apartment to help with 8 demon stration. He found her logged in negligee, and for a half hour or SO, the blushing youngster had the thrill of tying scarves around the comedy throat of his favorite movie star, while he s.pmmered out instruc- tions. He never knew that life could be so pleasant in mems haber- ] dashery.

You can't have your cake and eat it, has been said. And you can't have whole sale strikes and anything like good times The U. S. labor board lists more strikes during the year 1887 than have ever been experienced in this country. There were 4,740 strikes during 1887 and those added in 1888 would probably bring the list up close to the 5000 mark

BALLOT
SLOWS VOTING

BALTIMORE, Sept. l2.-Unex-
pected complications slowed up
Baltimore voting in today's pri-
mary election. attributable to the
length of the ballot, containing
almost 800 names.
Thousands of voters were turned
away during the forepart of the
day, after waiting in line for as
long as an hour in q vain hope
of reaching the voting machines
in the All polling places.
Individual voters wishing to cast
a ballot tor most or all of the
places on the long ticket spent
from seven to ten minutes in the
booths, as scores waited impatient
ly at many of the polling places.
Some 200 former polling places
had been closed in the belief that
the voting machines, in use
throughout the city for the first
time, would speed UP the ballot
ing and allow the vote to be cast
more rapidly in a smaller number
of polls.
Sabotage also was suspected as
some of the machines broke down
and mechanics. were rushed to
trouble zones to fix them.

Utah, Sept. ~ G.N.s0.-John
Cobb of England failed by three
miles per hour today for the sec
ond time to eclipse the world land
speed record of $3.50 miles per
hour set by his countryman, Capt.
E. T. Eyston two weeks ago.
Cobb, however. travelled at the
terrific speed of S42.53 miles an
hour through the electric meas
ured mile on the glistening salt
beds here.
In his valiant effort to Surpass
the record, Cobb Streaked his
beetle-shaped Railton racer across
the saline course twice.
He sped south at 343.S miles per
hour and returned through the
measured mile slightly slower, at
341.6 miles per hour.
The Londoner's attempt was
phenomenal because the condi
tions were far less favorable than
when Captain Eyston. boosted the
record.
