larger AMOUNT OF CREOSOTE IS WIDE HERE

War Has Compelled American Manufacturers to Supply Their Material for Preserving of Woods. WAS'HIN'r.T' . July 1 r.K Once more have American maiiufaciuriTS been forced to turn t th ir own rcj.ouri'i'i l.fi'ansp of the Kurop-an war the s 1 f reliance of the' Anierir.in.s buni? hhnwn in this instance by the ability to till the ai made by a shortage in the Kuroiean creosote supply. Creosote largely usnl as a wood preservative has heretofore !en shipped to this country in lare tpiantities from Kr.Kland and (lermany. A restriction in .shipments beati with the outbreak of the- war ;.r:d the I'nited States forest service which has been investigating the matter of the creosote supply estimates that the shipments from abroad have fallen off :;u per cent. The ease of creosote furnish'-: simply another example of the ingenuity of American manufacturers in making the Lest of a bad situation and it is estimated by the forest service that the domestic production of the article ha increased fully 2 " per cent sinc' It became dithcult to ret the usual supplies from Ihi'land and rmany. in an interesting bulletin telling how the manufacturers of the country have met the emergency the forest ierice which has an interest in all tilings pertaining to wood and its preservation, says: "(jwin to a falling off since Auk. 1 of nearly .'JO per cent in shipments of creosote from Knland and (lermany whence comes all but a small part of the imported oil used by wood preserving plants in this country, American manufacturers have taken sips which it is estimated will increase the production of the domestic article by L'o per cent. The imported oil ordinarily forms about per cent of the total used in the I'nited States where creosote is the most important wood preservative. "The statistics pa the red show that wood preserving is one of the most rapidly advancing industries in this country. In lsJ5 there were 15 plants in the United States; in 1911 there were 122 plants of all kinds. 100 being of the pressure cylinder type. Ninety-four of these plants last year used more than l7,00u,u00 gallons of creosote oil. more tha.i l!7,0u0,000 pounds of zinc chloride and nearly two and a half million gallons of other preservative, snich as coal tar and crude oil treating a total of about 1 GO.noo.OOO cubic feet of timber. "The most important consumers are the large plants in which railroad ties arc treated. The preservative materially lengthens the period of service of the ties, lessen.'? the labor cost incident to renewal and decreases the drain upon the forest h due to tiecutting. "To some extent the treatment of fence posts and other forms of farm timber is being taken up but as yet the use of wood preservatives by the farmers is on too small a scale to have any importance in the total while the practice of treating telephone poles is in its incipiency in this country."

A number of Turkish refugees who arriwd here Saturday state that condition? arc growing worse daily. The young J Turks have, lost the support and sym- . pathy of the population, they declare, and are trying to regain it by the an nouncement of wonderful victories over 1 It allies. The price of commodities lias become prohibits e and riots hae occurred which were ejuelled only after blood.-die-d. The neutral diplomatic representatives are doing their utmost to prevent the persecution of foreigners. Missionaries are leaving daily as untiChnstian outbreaks are feared. POSTOFFIGES TO BETWO FLOORS High Cost of Ground Forces Government to Economize on Space. WASHINGTON, July 3 v- If nronoxd uitairs nostofliee for the Chic:ik proves a success, Philadelphia, Hoston, Pittshurh and llichmond and certain other towns now in need of better facilities will be in line for similar r stahlishmonts It was declared tohiy by an oMieiai of the national postoifice department. The need of economi.incr due to the hiph cost ef around is iven as the re.Lsen for the proposed innovation. Postollice and treasury otlicials say that the postal business is increasing at sucli a rapid rate in some cities that lot after lot would have to be purchased for the accommodation of the mails if the principle be adhered to that ground Moor space is an absolute necessity in the handling f it. Declaring that the big cities are "awful elephants" on the hands of the IniiUling authorities a writer on the subject says: "Take Chicago. It is discovered that about GO per cent of the parcel post tonnage of the whole country originates there and it is growing at an appalling rate because of the expansion of the mail order trallic. Congress thought it was doing the clever thing by Chicago but it found that the $1,750,000 it appropriated will in fact cover about 20 or 25 per cent of the cost of buying1 an adequate site for an all ground lloor pos-tolhre. It is considered as goenl as impossible to get congress to give live or six millions more for a site and something must be done about it." Started lptairs Idea. P.yron Newston. assistant secretary of the treasury in charge of public buildings is given credit for the "upstairs" idea. Jle learned that it never had been done but that if it were done it would reduce the amount of realty that could be unloaded on the government. He talaked with the postollice oflicials as a result of which a committee was appointed to investigate and report as to the feasibility of the plan to operate a second-story postoflice. The committee saur elheieney engineers, health and sanitation experts and tohers and when they came back thefcv were converted to the idea of a postollic e in layers with le.-'s real estate to buy and more air and light for the people who must do the work inside. The reports seems to have satisfied the superiors of the two departments and in view of the fa"t that there must be come experimenting in the large cities it is regarded as certain that the disposition will be to trv the new idea.

LONDON. July IS. The popularity of the leader of (Jreat Britain's armies in France and llelgium, Sir John Frejich, is declining rapidly. While no man can point to aiy conspicuous failure on his part, it is thought that he has not measured up to the standard, which is required in his p'-sition. Great Pritain has still to tind her great general, is the opinion frequently expressed. The feud betw-cen Kitchener ami Trials of Prettiness The Jcter lly the .le'ster. Up to now I don't think I have ever looked upon the pretty girl as a subject for sincere commiseration. I don't know, what's more, that 1 am entirely prepared at the moment te alter the opinion 1 have hitherto held. but a .somewhat pathetic letter has set me thinking along new lines, for she wants te make me believe that the K)t of the ugdy girl is cast in elistinctly pleasant places as compared with the pretty one. 1 admit that there is room for discussion, but I have never yet met the reallypretty girl who seemed serieusly distressed by the advantages Providencehas given her oer her sitters. When the men in a mum make a bee-line te her chair, when the follows in the street watch her admiringly out of the corners of their eyes, and when people in a railway, carriage fall over each other in their anxiety to give her a seat, 'she scorns to bear it with remarkable fortitude. Put that, 1 supjpose, only accentuates the heroism of her nature and her determination to make the best of a hard job. It's sad indeed to retiect that she- is yearning to be plain, and longing to cease attracting atte-n-tiem; but it must be so, fer my lair correspemdent assures me it is1. M'ycs. It reminds me. though, that I have heard of this girlish lamentation of its own beauty ami its alleged annoyance at masculine admiration. . 1 remember -re now te hav walked acress a road on a muddy day with a pretty girl when stern necessity (nothing else, mint! you) has elemuneleei that her frocks (a goeul eight inched eff the greeunel in normal times) should be raised yet another eight or more. Py the merest of aevidents, eif course, the "attending circumstances in silk and laces" were' enough to disb.cate the trallic. yet I have neanl her. with an aire of distinct annoyance, e-omplain ef the way men stare-. And I." heartless cre ature, have pesitively suiiled, Pttle dreaming of the pain she' w'as suite in g. I am furthermore informeel that one ef the' hardships of a pretty girl'life is that every man she meets wants to llirt with her along lines prohibited in the rules; whereas when he' i contemplating matrimony he. so sh'1 alleges, looks fr something ever which he is more likely tee have the proprietary rights. This again is news te me. The part about the Mining I admit; but. the-n. we men are but human, ami it hadn't taken nineteen hundred 3 ears to teach us that some thing we can handle is miles nicer than something we can only b.ek at. As re garels tne marriage eml of the business, may'. e I've been labeling under a de lusion lor years past. If I were- a pretty girl I d-m't tloiik T sheKild want to change my bt.

French is now well established, and both the war minister and the Held commander have their ardent partisans. Sage observers predict that another year of the war will find neither of them in his present exalted pla ee. The presence of several society women and of French's American chum, (leorge Moore, at headquarters in France have also provoked adverse criticism. should often bewail the fact (to other people): I should dwell on the elitticulties ef be-auty, and Insist on the trials and temptations appertaining thereto; I shouiel say I should much prefer to have been born plain; and, knowing that the age of miracles wan past, I should always re-member to see that the framework matched the picture.

AT TUP. LAS ALU:. A number of years ago Robert Mantell played a Grecian romantic play, "The Marble Heart." at the Oliver. Today the same drama returns to the Lasalle in picture form with l-ing Pagpott as Phidas. the leading role. In the ojtening scenes Mr. Pai-uott, as a model n sculptor, falls asleep in hisstudio and dream he is a sculptor in aru ie i.t Greece. The- romantic and financi; 1 scenes of that time are cleverly blended with similar incidents of today when the artist awakes and fineis the elream characters duplieatetl in metdern life. The story is out of the onlinary. the ancient scenes, including a thrilling chariet race, have been staged with fine effect. The cast is excellent and the performance one that will ph-ase. On the .same program is a two part Keystone comedy, " The Little Teacher." featuring charm ing Mabel Xeumaml in a lively mixup in a western schrnol. A feature that may be called both thrdling and charming is a rare composition, hut this description may be accurately applied to the latest Paramount release produced bj' the Famous Players Film Co., Hazel Pawn in "Gambler's Adecate." the current attraction at the Lasalle Tuesday. In the role of Clarissa. Hazel Dawn presnts a character both enchanting and absorbing. The photoplay, founded on the noted story by Ronald Mac Ponabl. may be termed a melodramatic romance, with the strong elements of the drama and the sweet note of sentiment vying constantly throughout the 'eroduetion for supremacy. It can bo said, however, that neither phase of the story triumphs completely, because the greatest success of the production is won by Hazel Dawn herself. Tin: AUDITORIUM. The bill at the Auditorium today includes the regular episode of the serial story "The Diamond from the Sky." featuring Lottie Pick ford and Irving Cummings. "The Tragedies of the Crystal Globe," a three-part Kdison drama, with Mabel Trunnelle, Rigclow Cooper and Herbert Prior in the cast, and Charley Chaplin in "Film Johnnie," said to be a scream from start to finish. The five-part photoplay, "Colonel Carter of Cartersville." based upon the novel lv the late Ilopkinson Smith, will be the feature for tomorrow. Burr Mcintosh, the well known actor, is the "Colonel." a your.g Virginian who gets his title by deeds of gallantry in the civil war. He saves the life of a .young Union officer in the conflict, an incident which has the greater possible Influence on his future fortunes. Colonel Cartpr, long after the war. nn a yrrf r -

No matter how busy you may be, if you will get into the habit of spending ten or fifteen minutes in some kind of daily exercise which stimulates the circulation of blood through the whole body you can do more work the rest of the day, better work, have less fatigue when night comes, prevent disease and lengthen your life. Can you beat that program for a dividend paying investment? Don't make the mistake of taking much exercise when you begin such a program, especially if you are forty years of age or older. ExerciVe your common sense as well as your muscles and let vour moderation be known unto all men in this as in all other things. Begin bv taking four or five minutes, and as you find vour strength and endurance increasing extend the time gradually until you can go through all sorts of stunts for fifteen minutes, with the lungs and heart working easily and regularly.
