RALPH MOOJCSKI

Ralph Modjeakl, famous as a civil

andneor, w otn In Cracow, Pol

celebrated Helena Modjeakl. . After

corelnc to America with his mother

la 187 ho had Ma name changed to

2Jod)eskl for American naturalisation

lie was educated chiefly In France, where he graduated from the technical school In Paris at the head of hU

class. In 1S9S he becan the practice of

his chosen profession tn Chicago. Since that time his work has been con

fined chiefly to tho designing and building of bridges. Many of the largest bridges constructed in America in recent years have been designed and erected under the supervision pf Mr. Slodjeskl. particularly in the northwest and In Canada. He built two large bridge over the Columbia and Willamette river tor the Northern Pacific railroad, also tho bridge recently completed for the Illinois Traction company over the Mississippi river at SL Louis. While specialising chiefly fa bridge) engineering. Mr. Modjeakl lias executed other Important engineering work. .

Gardens in Streets

It would not be a bad idea It every resident of Richmond attended the corn school held here In February and study corn culture, raisins of garden truck, etc., because it the present traffic ordinance continuea to be enforced there will be no excuse for Richmond, people not becoming farmers. Under the terms of the traffic ordinance it is unlawful to drive in the middle of any street. .Would it not be better to cultivate this atrip on each street In preference to having them develope Into weed patches? Just think, every citizen could have a little garden In the middle of the street in front of his home. On summer evenings be could cuddle up in his porch hammock and see the stately corn stalks grow in Ills street gar den. . Our attention to this has been called by the following communication: Won: "If you will permit me I would like, to call attention to a few things In connection with the new ordinance regarding the use of the Btreets. The manner of its enforcement doea not add to the City's popularity among the rural population, nor does it please the business public, required to make use of the streets. ' The hardships Imposed are unnecessary and unreasonable. While there may be some reason for an ordinance requiring drivers to remain on the right side of the street, there can be no sensible argument for such literal enforcement as is attempted by the authorities, nor for the language in part employed in the framing of the ordinance. "According to the ordinance it is unlawful to drive in the middle of the street. If this is literally observed by the public there will grow up a bed of weeds on every street In the city, except possibly where the street car tracks are laid. It would be much more attractive to have this useless strip of ground converted into a park, or give it to the poor of the city for raising vegetables. Some of the narrow streets, such as a part of Fort Wayne avenue or North C street, would have to be fenced up to prevent violating the new ordinance, unless permitted to drive on the sidewalks. The universal and common admonition to "keep in the middle of the road." must be revised to read "keep on the side of the road." "Then the construction, that no driver can approach the curb or side of the street except from the right hand side, is unreasonable. The driver universally sits on the right sde, and tt is therefore, impossible for him to drive to the side of the street or 'curb to permit the other occupant of the vehicle to dismount conveniently. He or she must always get out on the street side and walk around the conveyance, usually In the mud, dust or snow, or else climb over the driver to the other side. This works a special hardship to the one-seated automobile .owners, such as Mr. John B. Dougan, Gaar, Scott and Co., and others. "The district in the city for which the ordinance presumably was specially designed to affect, has added to the difficulty in that district. The large retail stores and commercial houses grouped around the corner of Eighth and Main, must all be approached from the right hand side. In order to do this the driver must pass the building far enough to turn around and come back on the other side to the point where he desires to stop. To make this turn he finds himself on the crossing which everybody desires to avoid. It will take additional policemen to prevent accidents. It would also make it very Inconvenient In conducting funerals from some of our larger churches such asSt. Mary's, St Andrews's St Paul's, and St John's Lutheran. The funeral processions in these cases must travel south to their respective cemetarles. Under this ordinance they will have to change their-routes or the mourners must cross the street to enter their conveyances.' "The ordinance will also reduce the hitching rack facilities by about one-half. Two horses cannot be hitched to the same rack or post as the horses must all head the same way. As these facilities are already very Meager, It will add to the difficulty in finding bitching places. "The greatest hardship perhaps comes to the delivery man. If he should have a dozen customers residing on the same square, and they should live alternately on opposite sides of the street, he would have to make twelve complete circles with his wagon to get the last customer, which Is enough to make the poor old horse fall over from dizziness. It will also add greatly to the time required to make the deliveries. No one object is so deserving of sympathy and consideration as the delivery horse. He must trot along day In and day out. In rain or shine, heat or cold, to the lash of the boy driver at every turn, so that at the end of a year or two he goes with drooping head to the bone pile. To add to his troubles by sending the already overworker horse around in circles, is unjustifiable and unmerciful. "One Who Was Fined."

DANGEROUS BLAZE

ALSO COSTLY ONE . t (American News Service) Troy, N. Y., Jan. 27. The Boston de

partment store and several adjacent buildings In the business section of this city were destroyed by fire early today wlttTa loss estimated at $250,000. The fire department had a des

perate struggle controlling the flames and for a time It looked as if a large section of the city would be destroyed,

The conflagration became so threatening at one time that fire fighting ap

paratus was summoned from Lansingburgh. . .

The fire was discovered in the Boston storo at 5:30 a. m. There was a

great deal of combustible stuff in the

store and the fire spread in all direc

tlons with furious speed. The entire

fire-fighting force of Troy was soon on the scene. Three hours after the

fire was subdued it was still blazing

although under control.

The Famous J)

Does Not Strain the Eyes Don't use t small, concentrated light over one shoulder. It puts an unequal strain on your eyes. Use a diffused, soft, mellow light that cannot flicker, that equalizes the work of the eyes, such as the Kayo Lamp gives, and avoid eye strain. The Rayo is designed to give the best light, and it does. It has a strong, durable shade-holder ths is held firm and true. A new burner gives added strength. Made of solid brass and finished in nickel. Easy to keep polished. The Rayo is low priced, but no other lamp gives a better light at any price. Once a Rayo User, Always One.

LONG SEARCH ENDED

Rikeard Abandons Hope of

Finding Wife. After a diligent search for his wife in

the different states in the middle west

following her alleged abandonment of himself and their child, three and a

half years ago, William George Rikeard, an employe of the American Seeding Machine company, has given up the hunt and has instituted proceed

ings in the circuit court to divorce Mary Agnes Rikeard and also obtain

custody of their three-year-old son, Paul Preston.

Less than two years after their mar

riage at Zanesville, Ohio, on November

12, 1905, Rikeard, in his complant, al

leges his wife without cause left him and their child. He never learned

where she went or what prompted her

sudden leave-taking. He avers that he

has devoted much of his time and money in searching for her, but no

clues were ever obtained.

Marital relations between George

Herbert Ellinger, living at 713 North C street, and Lenia M. Ellinger, now believed to be a resident of Oakland.

California, were not congenial, it

seems, and accordingly in March, 1902 she abandoned her husband. He is seeking a separation decree in a suit filed in the circuit court on Wednes

day afternoon.

To the City Council, and Whom It May Concern: Kindly allow me to make a suggestion In regard to the "Keep to the Right" ordinance. ' It Is an excellent law, facilitates traffic and prevents accidents, and should not be abused by excessive prosecution, or persecution, but rather, used as an educational, or precautionary law. A precautionary law like the law against hitching to shade trees, stopping on crossings, leaving horses unhitched on the street, and the spit ordinance. None of these Is prosecuted , for every violation, but can be whenever the violation becomes excessive, detrimental to the

public or injurious to any one. The spit ordinance has become effective, and yet but few prosecutions or lines have been made. Its publicity has educated the people against the habit of spitting Indiscriminately. People stop their vehicles on the crossings frequently. Very few, if any are fined but the law is these that may be enforced if any one is damaged or incpnvenienced. . Let the "Keep to the Right" law stand. Make it public by printed cards, the police giving warning, as was done with me when I violated such an ordinance at the Court House crossing at Dayton, O. I was not arrested or fined but was taught enough not to repeat the act.' The public will soon comply with the law in the con

gested streets. If they take their chances in violating the law on less used streets, they know they are liable for ' damage or inconvenience to

Mioblo Laiiotfivo for Old fooplo iiudn Froo

Life la so arranged that there is a Close resemblance between infancy and old age. By this la not meant the mental but the physical faculties. Fcr example, the organ of digestion Is the most difficult thing the child has to contend with, as It Is that of the old person. When a person gets past middle life his power of digestion decreases, and continues to grow Weaker, and for that reason so many old people are habitually constipated. They try everything recommended from hot water to strong cathartics without avail. Now, if there is any one thing a person of advanced years should not take it is a cathartic. The bowels cannot stand it. What is required In a mild, gentle, non-griping liquid laxative.

Tou have It exactly as required in Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which stands today, after a generation, as the Ideal remedy for old people, women, children and all others who require a mild, natural remedy. We could give the names of thousands of old people who use nothing else but Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, among them Mr. A. A. Lewis of Bentonville, Ark., and Mr. Knoa Gilpin of Danville, IlL They first sent to Dr. Caldwell for a free sample bottle, which every reader Is Invited to do, and then, having tested it and found It satisfactory, they bought it of their druggist at fifty cents and one dollar a bottle. Their words of public" praise should prompt the present reader to at least send for a sample bottle. It costs nothing. Results are absolutely guaranteed or money will be refunded.

Dr. Caldwell does not feel that the purchase of his remedy ends his obligation. He has specialized in stomach, liver and bowel diseases for over forty years and will be pleased to- give the reader any advice on the subject free of charge. All are welcome to write him.

Prrsrrlptloa ArrontalUhes IVaatfers. A treatment which anyone can pre pare cheaply at homo, has been found to Increase the weight. Improve the health, round out wrawny figures. Improve the bust, brighten the eyes and put new color Into the cheeks and hps of anyone who is too thin and Moodleus. It puts flesh on those who have been thin whether from

disease or natural tendency on those who by heavy eating and diet have in vain tried to Increase; on those who feel well but can't get fat; and n those who have tried every known method in vain. It is a powerful aid o digestion, nutrition and assimilation. It assists the blood and nerves to distribute all over the body the flesh elements contained in food, and gives the thin person the same absorbing qualities possessed by the naturally floshy. Kverybody Is about the same, but certain elements and organs of blood and neryes are deficient and until this is corrected, thin people will stay thin. The nutrition stays in the body after separation by the digestive functions instead of passing through unused, when this valuable treatment Of blended medicines is used. Practically no one can remain thin who uses It. for it supplies the long felt need. Mix in a half pint bottle, three ounces of essence of pepsin and three ounces of syrup of rhubarb. Then add ono ounce compound essence cartlol. Shake and let stand two hours. Then add one ounce of tincture cadomene compound (not cardamom). Shake well and take a teaspoonful before and after, meals. Drink plenty of water between meals and when retiring. Weigh before beginning.
