Lazy Germ Found in Potato London Expert Says innocent Tuber Causes Indigestion ar.d Muuh Nervous Worry. London.—it's -he bumble and demo- ' cratlr potato that gets a jolt from | dietetic sharps Medical opinion now 1 has stamped It as the cause of many j of the ills from which humanity suf- ! icrs and a foe alike to long life and good temper. "My advice is to cut potatoes right out of the diet.’ said one of London's prominent specialists in arraigning the tuber. "Persons who wish to be healthy la body an-i sunny and alert in mind, especially those leading se dentary lives, never should eat pota toes. They cause wbat Is known as ’starrh indigestion. "They contain aoout 95 per cent, cf water, and when they have been as similated the result Is very little nil trtmenL and that after a big tax on the alimentary system, by reason of the difficulty the digestive fluids en counter in breaking down the tough cellulose walls in which the starch grains are enveloped.

Poston. Mass.—The woods will be 1 full of girsy and brown-tail moth para : sites next summer, for the moth dl ; vision of the state forestry department already has on hand at the experiment laboratory in Saugus between 40 and . f.O different kinds of them to he re leased during the heydays of the ’ pests The forestry department believes Tlr>t it has solved the problem of moth destruction by parasite, and that from . !t‘-xt summer the work of the moths’ natural enemies will do what men have been unable to accomplish in the work of extermination. Forester Frank W. Uabe does no» exp- ft the moths ever to he complete ly destroyed, hut he does believe they w ill be reduced to a point where their damage is minimum. VV. F Ftske. who has charge of the laboratory at Sugus. says that of the two score or more of parasites to be released last summer, ten show no preference between the gipsy or the brown tail, devouring both with evi dent ejoyment. The remainder are exclusive in their tastes. It has been discovered that the cycle of the parasite's activity, with one or two exceptions, is about ten days. Kach has his specialty during that time. One may attack the eggs, another the caterpillar, and a third the moth itself, but no one has yet been found that Is available for a general campaign. One of the most ferocious of the parasites now on hand is the large predaceous beetle, which attacks the gypsy moth caterpillar, tearing It to pieces. Its ability to kill is measured only by the time at its disposal. It Is a particularly desirable parasite for a number of different reasons, not the least of which Is that the female raises a family of 500 children in a season. Another desirable feature oi the predaceous beetle Is the fact that it lives to be three years old. There Is also the monodontonerous. a parasite so small that individuals can hardly be seen by the naked eve. This little fellow is voracious out or all proportion to his size, however, and his particular fodder is the pupa of the gypsy moth. The managers of the Saugus labora tory imported the monodontonerous from Kurope in 1900. and the first con signment was liberated in the same year. Very soon the colony was lost, and not a trace of it was seen for three years. I.ast summer it was located, and the entomologists discovered that it had spread and had covered an area of 500 square miles, over all which It was doing excellent work for the for estry department Another of the gypsy moth parasites Is the schedius, an immigrant from Japan which has a scheme of its own for working destruction. The female deposits Its eggs among the eggs ot the gypsy moth eggs. The larva hatches and feeds, developing to the pupa stage before leaving the gypsy moth egg. There will be liberated from the Saugus laboratories about 2,000.000 of the schedius parasites. it. far more valuable tor making mo tor spirits than for food, so why put them to such an unsuitable use as ( eating them. When a man is general ly 111, the first thing the doctor does is to stop his use of potatoes, and rightly so. for they use up so much of his energy in the process of digestion. To repair the ravages made on the human body by these tubers, carrots should be eaten freely, for they stimu late the digestive processes." Name State Flower. Annapolis. Md.—That miniaturish sunflower, the "Black-eyed Susan.” has been selected as the official flower of Maryland by the vote of the school children of the state, and the fact is duly recorded in the minutes of the meeting of the state board of educa tion. Go!den-rod gave Black-eyed Su san a close run In the race for first choice, and following it came the rose, the trailing arbutus and the pink car nation. Black-eyed Susan was popu lar with the children because it com bines the black and gold of the state colors. Fascinating Marathon Dance. San Francisco—Six men and six women were taken to a local hospital the other day after dancing without interruption for fourteen hours and forty-one minutes at the first annual San Francisco “dancing Marathon."

SHARE IN PROFITS Each Workman in Shipyard Al lowed to Take $50 in Stock. Employes Agree Not to Strike. But Let Council Decide All Disputes —Sir Christopher Furness Praises Unions. London.—Sir Christopher Furness, M. P„ spoke eloquently recently of the success of his experiment, started last March, of a shipyard at West Hartle pool on co-partnership lines He ad dressed a mass meeting of his em ploye-co-partners in Irvine's Shipbuild ing and Dry Docks Company. Ltd., of which he is chairman. Under the scheme each man took ten five-dollar shares in the company (paid for out of wages), bearing four per cent, interest, with the addition of a bonus if the profits exceeded five per cenL The men agreed not to strike, but to settle disputes through a works council, on which the man agement and the employes were rep resented. The men were recently given a five per cenL bonus in addi tion to the four per cent, on their in vestmenL Sir Christopher, in reviewing the history of the experiment, quoted from the Working Man's Friend of over fifty years ago. "The liberty, happiness and glory of England and the world will be consummated as soon as good feeling shall be estab lished between masters and those whom they employ." The momentous fact was that the works council speedily got down to the true basis of the co partnery—the basis of genuine comradeship—and realized that the more they could set tle their little differences among themselves the better It would be for everybody. He paid a tribute to the local trade union leaders who counseled the men to give the idea a trial. “The em ploye partners.” he added, “have responded In a manner that could scarcely have been excelled, and they have upheld worthily, at a time when there were people who began to doubt whether they were not disappearing, the reputations which our various British qualities won for our country half a century or more ago.” Sir Christopher quoted from one of bis early speeches oa the scheme: "I fly to amity, as 1 hope that you will fly to amity, as a haven of refuge i after a prolonged and worrying and sickening course of friction.” As a result of the friendliness be tween the management and the men there had been no friction justifying any serious mention. What was more ! important, the increasing closeness of | the association had brought about a greater appreciation of the respective viewpoints and a more determined de sire to meet each other's wishes. I The chairman of the works council, Mr. Purdon. now declared unhesita tingly: “Confidence reigns supreme among the members." Recalling the ! almost daily incidents of antagonism, strife and delay, the circumstances somber and squalid, with which they had an acquaintance so close and grim for several years, up to 12 | months ago, surely few principles had enjoyed a justification so great in a time so short. In a memorandum Mr. Purdon had said that a works council, such as they had, with the machinery that enabled the representative artisans Boys Steal Navy Messages Tender Missives Sent Through Air In tercepted by Youthful Wire less Operators. Washington.—The latest contribu tions to the mass of data being col lected by Representative Ernest Rob erts of Massachusetts, a member of the house naval committee, tn support of his bill for the federal licensing of wireles stations, include a navy de partment report of false official orders sint to a warship by an amateur oj> erator, signing Admiral Rob Evans’ name: the interception by boys ot of ficial and social messages, some of the latter extremely personal and very lively, and an offer by a wireless company to discontinue all its stations along the Atlantic coast where there are navy stations nearby if the latter will handle its commercial business. The report of the interception of social mesages comes from the Mare Jersey Will Hire Spanker Bill Proposes Establishment of Post at Home for Girls—Appli cants Are Fit. Trenton, N. J.—Applications are pouring in for the position of official spanker at the New Jersey state home for girls. The establishment of the job is proposed in a bill in the legisla ture. Applications are coming from al! parts of the country and nearly 500 have been received. Women, old. young, comely and otherwise, are after the job. Almost every politician In the state is supporting one or more candidates. Many women from vari ous parts of the state have visited the capital in their eagerness to get the proposed berth. A woman signing herself Mrs. Jo seph Harrison address Atlantic City, has written the governor asking that she be appointed official spanker. She 1 writes: "I am a widow and have three chil dren. 1 am 35 years old and weigh ISO pounds. I am sure 1 can maintain discipline." “Hold the job for tne until i get a divorce from my husband, and I’ll show you what a real spanker is.’’ de clares a letter signed by Mrs. Henry Ford of Newark. This was written to a state official. Night Custodian Simon Gerson re ceived a letter from a South Jersey woman, who asserted: “My right arm is strong as iron, and l will make every spank felt if I land the job."

I.—County Treasurer Charles E Fit* is fond of maple syrup on his hot cakes, but he does not care much for It for use instead of varnish on his best runabout. Fit* runs a Uvery stable in South hampton and recently a quantity of fine maple syrup was sent to him by a friend. When It arrived in a big can an employe of Fit* thought it was varnish and put it in the carriage bouse He did not say anything to bis employer about the can. Fit*, before starting rcr Riverhead. told one of his men to varnish a light colored wagon The man went to the carriage house, got the can of maple syrup, and set to work varnishing the wagon When Fitz got home he didn't tike the appearance of the wagon, but ■ be man assured him the varnish was at excellent quality. j In hl3 examination of the wagon Fitz learned the “varnish” had a sweet taste, and he called for the can from which tt had been taken. Then the discovery was made that the “varnish” was the maple syrup. There is enough left to permit Fitz to enjoy his hot cakes, so the employe wasn't Bred. TO BAR INSANITARY BALCONY Matter for Gratification to Bookkeep ers, Clerks and Others Who Work on Shelves. Chicago.—It Is a matter for gratiil cation that the committee on public health of the city council is preparing to give Its attention to the needs of bookkeepers, clerks, cashiers and oth ers who do their work In balconies or on shelves In shops, offices or fac tories. Places of this sort are particu larly likely to have bad ventilation, bad light and other disease-breeding qualities. The expedient of putting and laborers to meet from time to time on terms of equality with the managers and foremen, was the true solution of a problem which has for years been among the most urgent, because among the most damaging, which have confronted captains of British industry. Under the new regime the virtues of punctuality, assiduity, economy, and ingenuity had been exercised with a little more spirit and persistence than had been customary in late years. There had been fewer idle days, fewer “lost quarter days," and closer attention had been given to de tails. Sir Christopher said that on almost the last evening he spent with h1s friend, the late Sir Alfred Jones, the latter remarked that the first notable thing he did as a young man was to deposit 550 in a building society. That money he had never withdrawn. The $50 which each man had invested in the copartnery would, with com pound interest at nine per cent., reach the total of $3,715.S7 in 50 years. “1 am not pretending." said Sir Christopher, “that all of you are going to be in work at Middleton or the harbor shipyard for, shall I say. an other half century, but I do plead earnestly that we must never despair of small beginnings, since they have frequently endings great and glori ous."

Here are a tew samples, with names and details slightly changed for ob vious reasons: "Miss Brown, Oakland: Can't meet you to-nigat. No shore leave. Be good in the meantime." “Mrs. Blank. Alameda: Will see you to-morrow night. Didn't like to take too many chances yesterday." Another naval officer, according to this book, addressed his best girl at Mare island like this: “Honestly, could not show up last night. Am arranging so 1 can see you oftener. Will take you to dinner Wednesday afternoon." And here Is another gem: “All lovely. Am sure you are mis taken. Call again.” Queer Address on Letter. St. Paul. Minn.—"See the rabbits. Jack Barn, la.,’ was the remarkable address on a letter that was de ciphered by H. M. Jewett of the In quiry department of the local post office to mean “Cedar Rapids. Jack Iiarn, Iowa," or. when properly trans posed. “Jack Bams, Cedar Rapids, la.” Mr. Jewett does not mind figuring out adresses that are badly written through carelessness or iguorance. but when somebody gives him an enigma just for a joke his patience is sorely tried. Woman Slaps Judge. St. Louis.—When Mrs. Blanche Childress answered Judge Jeff Pol lard’s "show me" request by slapping him on the nose during a trial in his court to demonstrate the treatment given her by her husband in a con troversy, the judge told her that no further practical demonstrations were necessary. "Enough!” cried the Judge. Some people’s morals arc like their best clothes—worn only on special oc casions. workers In cramped quarters near the celling of a room Is frequently ' adopted, since It serves to increase working space at practically nc cost to the employer. It Is a highly dangerous expedient, since the work ers get the foul air from below and are bound to suffer from it unless great care is exercised In ventilating the places. Speaking generally. Health Commis sioner Evans denominates these bal conies or shelves as “the worst places In town” and “veritable hell holes.” Doubtless some of them have been so constructed as to produce no Injurious effect upon tlielr occupants. On the other hand, the picturesque language of the health commissioner properly applies to many such contrivances for increasing In a notable manner the capacity of crowded places of employ ment.
