They say that Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Long are the happy parents of a baby girl, born Jan. 10. We hardly know Chester Johnson when he drives by. Chester is driving a coupe. We are surely having a good, old fashioned winter, with fine sleighing, something we haven’t had for some time. Everybody aught to get out their sleds and sleighs, and make good use of the snow while it lasts and give the cars a rest.

To« Much Inspiration A poet at a window, a brunette came along. The poet liked her looks, began to pen a song. In just anothef moment a blend earn* into view. She wns so very pretty she got a line or two. And then there was a red-haired girl, and she was not so worse. She gave a lot of color to the ensuing verse. The poet couldn’t sell bls song; could not a nickel get. It served him right—he should have been true to the brunette. —Louisville Courier-Jour-nal. Milk Made From Tree Sap In the West Indies a tree known to the natives as "byahya” has a sap so rich that when the bark and pits are crushed they yield a mllk-llke fluid that Is richer than cows milk.

This Week By Arthur Brisbane ALSO AN EMPIRE. SEGREGATE YOUR HENS. OUR AMERICAN MOUNTAINS. WHY CHEAT REAL WORKERS? Within a short time, says C. D. Burney, aviation expert, and member of the British Parliament, the farthest point of the British Empire will be within twenty-four hours of London by flying machine. Uncle Sam, please take notice. This also is an empire. Is it as far from the south end of Florida to the north end of Alaska, aad from Bar Harbor, Maine, tn San Diego * The eountrv fs gradually waking up to our flying machine sitMtien, and it NEEDED So wake up. Secretary Wilbur gives this Information. Five hundred airplane* of ths navy are useless. And even the remaining 224 that can fly, more or lose, are all out of date. Do you keep chickens’ Keep them away from other ehlekans if you can. Europe has sent here a poultry plague for which there is no known cure. Congress voted 1100,000 to tight It. Rigid quarantine will help the situation. Segregate your chickens, and beware how you eat raw vegetables, unless cleaned with greatest thoroughness, which isn’t easy. Be cautious, especially about raw lettuce. The French alone know how to prepare that plant, grown in open fields, often with barnyard manure carrying typhoid germs. Every leaf should be separated from every other leaf and carefully washed. The salad should be mixed in a big bowl, turned over and over, "well fatigued,” as the French put it, until every part of every leaf has some of the vinegar on it. Vinegar kills germs. With vegetables thoroughly

^1 boiled, there is, of worse, m mu* to fear typhoid. The New Haven Railroad want* to stop bus lines in Rhode Island because they compete. That seems quite reasonable. While respectable gentlemen in W’all Street were gutting the New Haven Railroad, robbing old women and children that had all their money invested in it, they squandered millions on trolley lines, etc. That was ail right, because the railroad did it. But. now private individuals that own their omnibuses want to carry citizens that own their public highways and want to be carried. The railroad says you mustn’t DO it; it interferes with us. What about flying machine* which will soon give REALLY cheap transportation ? Will the New Haven decide that it own* the air, and ask convenient courts for injunctions to keep the people of the United States from flying on their own atmosphere* Very likely. In generations to come, men and government* more -nearly civilised Fill allow no children to develop stunted bodies and deformed minds in city slum*. They will fly to the high lands of Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona. Colorado, to all P*rts of the American mountain paradise of health and beauty. There they will develop into real men and women. The United States will breed its own strong people, no longer depending on Europe m it does now for constant supplies of fresh blood. Our mountains will supply th* fresh blood, and men grown there will supply the workers, not handlers of picks and shovels, but workers with brains and machine* The bill to raise the pay of hardworking post office employees ma, be defeated because somebody u accused of trying to get it through by bribery. What of that? Thousands oJ underpaid postal employees know nothing about the bribery, and ha 4 nothing to do with It. Ilie bribery story sounds rather fishy. The only question for Congress to decide is whether or not th* men that do the hard work in th* post office DESERVE decent pay whether or not Uncle Sam should set a good example, paying hi* servants properly, or a mean, stingy, unworthy example, cheating his own employees that he may keep down the taxes of rich men THAT’S THE REAL QUES TION.
