tally to help yourselves most
delightfully-buy q sack of CO.
lima coffee, brown II thoroughly
but do not burn it-sprinkIe II
with brandy and put II away In
alright jars.
Do not grind IL until you are
ready to USE II, 10 As TO have the
aroma sweet and fresh.
Measure II literally, even gen.
erously, into any old tin coffee pot
IL you wish-the c0ntainer does
not count.
FIJI the pot with water and
bring II to q frothing boil on q hot
stove once, twice, THREE TIMES.
Then dash some cold water on II
10 settle It.
And you will have q richly
arOmaed coffee that will stain the
cup and give you a sensation TO
remember, and, as they say, TO
write home about.
THE treacherous old mountain
lowered above these coffee
plantations and pillowed its hoary
head upon the clouds In pretended
slumber.
1t had pulled its coverlet Of
green well over Its shoulders, and
seemed to sleep In peace and rest
fulness.
Then all Of a sudden II woke In
wrath and fury.
Smoke and fire burst forth from
II.
Hot lava ran down Its steep
sides and kindled the forests into
flames.
The earth trembled In the face
Of the unleashed forces Of nature.
and the constructions Of feeble and
impotent man were levelled In the
dust.
vXTHY do people live In such dan
w gerous and destructive places,
say you:
why do they:
But they DO In Italy, In Turkey.
In Japan, and-let US say vaguely
lin other places.
There. are their homes-what IL
left of them.
There, are their friends-what
remain of them.
There. are their work and their
livelihood.
There they were born.
And there they may some day
die-as peacefully rs the rest
Of U.S.
Moreover, these catastrophes
only occur once In a century.
Vesuvius slept for three hundred
years before II Unexpectedly burst
forth In the eruption which de-
stroyed Pompeii and Herculaneum.
Aetna has often lain quiet for
generations.
No eruption Of PeIee before the
DISASTROUS one had been known for
very many years.
The wicked old mountain Of Co
lima will sink back into slumber.
and maybe sleep peacefully for q
hundred years.
Would you, II you lived there,
and had been born there, leave
that beautiful spot-the work that
you know and the country that you
love-snd 60 to some untried and
possibly unfriendIy land?
VOU would not.
You would be as reckless, rs
needless, rs courageous as the peo-
pie of Colima.

Dearborn Needs Title
For Site Of Old Fort

Legal steps were being taken
in Washington today to clear the
title of a plot of land in Dearborn

clause bars Dearborn from using
the land for a combination fire

estate whether or not, In spite
OF the high qualifications Of these
outstanding citizens of their
time, they did not prove to be
mistaken In their honest belief
that NJ. o. would bring about
lower fares and a seat for every
body:
Estate whether or not the
public was told by these same
men that one of the methods
they were going TO use to reduce
fares and improve their service
was by stopping the huge How
of dividends and profits to the
stockholders and bOndholders of

ent city officials may be
mistaken, and despite the can
collation. OF the gas company
presidents $500 per year De-

CITYS QUESTIONS
City questions are:
"Since sufficient units could
be erected for liquefied storage
to provide continued service in
any emergency, who should the
present standby manufacturing
and gas holder equipment be
continued In the rate base, or
II the company maintains its
present standby-why should 1t
not be limited to an investment
representing the cost Of lique-
faction standby?
what percentage Of Detroit s
heat treating industry uses
natural gas:
what percentage of Detroit's
bakeries and laundries use natu-
raj gas:
would not a more complete
service to these and other in
dustries, together with elimina-
ton of present standby equip
ment, vastly reduce required
earning from the domestic and
all other types of consumer:
QUERY ON WAGES
"Please give compa rative wage
scales, and other labor benefits,
for present gas company en-
ployes, and those of the water
board. Information on water
board wages, etc, can be OBJ
tanned from the city's budget
director.
"What Is the gas company's
annual labor and salary cost, per
consumer, for 1885, as compared
with 1910:
"In what other cities supplied
with straight natural gas by
United Light and Power or
American Light and Traction
subsidiaries IL the gas measured
by ID. G. u. methods? And are
the penalties TO consumers In
those cities as high as penalties
which have prevailed in Detroit =?
"Gas heating cost Is controlled
largely by the length of time
that q house retains the heat.
inasmuch rs the only time gas
Is being consumed is when the
furnace Is operating. Because of
that fact, the Federal Housing
Administration insists on a house
being properly insulated and the
most efficient type of gas heat
ing equipment utilized before
approving a mortgage on a new
home, where gas heating is
specified.
"Why then does the gas COM
pany continue to encourage and
solicit the installation of con-
version equipment In old-type
heating systems located in old
houses which have no insu-
lation?"
