BILLIONS FOR BOTTLES STOP THIRST FOR DRINK Methusalech Would Have Had to Con- sume Eight Bottles Every Min- ute of His Life. Washington, Aug. 17. — History | omits the description of many of the interesting things about Methusaleh, among them his liquid capacity. But, says the department of agriculture, if he had been given the task of dispos- ing of all the “pop” consumed in this country last year, he woulud have had to start at birth and down eight’ bot- tles every minute of his 969-year span of life. . Each year, the department's statis- ticians declare, thirsty America emp- ties four billion bottles of soft drinks, exclusive of such beverages as near beers made of cereals. The sparkling flood comes from ten thousand bot- tling establishments and pours across 110,000 counters. The enormous thirst quenching in- dustry is a relatively new develop- ment, a commercializing of the dis- coveries of the chemist, and one that ment chemists to prévent fracture of the pure food and drugs laws. The “pop” of teday, a department paper says, is not the same as that clear liquid formerly sold only at ball games, fairs and carnivals, reminis- cent of over-ripe bananas, and with little delectation for the palate. Had not great changes occurred \in the industry, it is hardly®*possible that it could have reached its present pro- portions. I'ruit juices are sometimes found in the beverages, it is said, but the chemist has supplied many substitus tes which have a marvelous simula- tion of nature's flavors and perfumes. amity appeared bright yesterday, de- velopments today were not of a cheer- | Hays Hammond, chairman of the coal Unless agreements can | iing nature. he reached 155,000 miners will strike September 1. tives shown above are: (sitting) Thomas Kennedy, District No. John L.

FOR RESTORING YOICE Fear of Man Who Was Holding Him Up Brings Lost Speech Back to Patient. Paris, Aug. 17.—In a secluded spot just outside the walls of Paris there stands a small and select infirmary | where diseases of the throat are | treated. Patients suffering from |, chronic laryngitis go there for medi- cal attention. . The attention of the police was h called recently to a series of daylight hold-ups occurring in the vicinity of the sanatorium. It seems that in- genious crooks watched prosperous | looking visitors enter the institution, noted the worst cases—those so un- able to utter a sound that they had | to make signs to the doorman—and | then set upon them when they left | and robbed them of their money and valuables. One of the &tick-up men received | the shock of his life the other day, when an intended victim, upon being attacked, suddenly shouted “Help, | Thief !" in a voice which would have been a credit to a side-show barker. Fear had brought back the sick man's | voice. "You have cured me,” he said to the crook, “it's ten years since I have been able to shout like that. | Here is a hundred francs; I would | much rather give this to you than | ®0 on paying doctor: ARTIFICIAL HAY DRYING SUCCESSFUL IN ENGLAND « L Out of Date—Weather Not Fac- tor, London, Aug. 1 Making hay| while the sun shines is out of date.

This cavity will serve a 30 ton rick to insure the safety of the curing and cooling process. A fan| placed in the cavity dries out the grass | and keeps it from rotting. It is claimed that not only are the| farmers saved the possible loss of their crops through bad weather, but analysis shows that hay dried in the rick has a higher percentage of als buminoids and carbo-hydrates and theerfore increased feeding value.
