Jealous Wife Wounds Another Worker and Is Fined Therefor. Bijou Annie Smerika and her nineteen- year-old sister, Katrina Kolik, charged with assault upon Amelia Waslik, were arraigned in police court Friday morn- ing. The three women are employed in No. 4 mill of the American Thread company and Tuesday noon had a fight that resulted in the injury of the Waslik woman. Testimony submitted to the court disclosed the fact that Amelia Waslik was eating her dinner when Annie Smerika came to her and words re- sulted. Annie claimed that Amelia had been flirting with her husband, Steve. This was denied by Amelia on the ground that whatever had passed ‘between Steve and herself was merely a joke. Witnesses testifled that Annie struck Amelia on the breast and then Katrina stepped into the fight and picking up a steel roller weighing about three pounds, threw it at Ame- lia; the roller striking her, cut a gash on’ Amelia’s arm so that Rose Robin- son had to apply tobacco to the to stop the flow of blood. Annie Smerika had entered a plea of not gullty to the charge of assault and she was so found by the court. Katrina was found guilty and fined $4, the costs being remitted. Katrin was tolg that she had better not into any more mixups or’she wou not fare as well the next time. Ame- lin was cautioned to keep away from Annie’s husband in the future. Back to Jail.

WA I The city's voice, I have heard it, | mysterious yet distinct. Each city, as well as each man or woman, has’ its wn tone of voice. I have heard Chicago as I lay abed in the Palmer house, a mighty dron- ing and thrumming, as of some huge chine; and New York, from the old and Central hotel, as'if the hurry- of innumerable feet, the plash of countless wings; and Paris, from the and hotel, as if a concourse of a multitude of rolling wheels and blar- ing horns and the cries of men: and London, in the days before automo- biles, when the patter of hoofs poured cternally through the night. But these phrases are lame. There is a personality in each city'’s tone. I can tell them apart as well as [ can i the voices of my boy and y are real. They are super- humanly human. All day long and far into the night ch city sends its cry out into the infinite. s the vast orchestra of humanity iring to the sky. Who that has heard cities can get the echo of their deep-throated siren lure out of his heart? AS OF A PLAIN The City’s Voice. The Cry of Humanitv. The ery of humanity, I have heard it, and my soul has been crushed as with an intolerable load. It is a_voiceless cry, piercing only the ear of the spir What an_intolerable burden is the burden of the world! Have you ever felt it, the feeling that somehow you were responsible for all the wrong and cruelty, and that it was your duty to remove the evil? To be God one would have to be capable of how great suffering! The cry goes up continually from earth’s hells, from the muttering workers, from dull, spofled lives, from the wretched women who trade in low passions, from the sodden victims of alcohol, from stunted children, from desolate old age, from the army of failures, from the weak and wicked everywhere. Bend and listen, all ye magnificent ones, for it wails out against you, as Abel's blood cried out from the earth. - All ye endowed, privileged, pamper- ed and at ease, Woe to you when you hear that cry! The Synchronism of Clocks. There are comparatively few under- takings admitted by universal con- sent to be more appropriate for opera- tion under state control than by pri- te enterprise, but it must be gener- ally conceded that there is no more laudable and proper task for a civil department of the public service than the distribution of accurate time-sig- nals, It is well known that the en- gineering staff of the post office (British) have for several years been occupied with the task of evolving suitable mechanism ‘and electrical de- vices for the purpose ,and now that the telephones have come under their supervision ,the question o fthe syn- chronism of clocks, the meting out of time intervals, and the quantitative measurement of delay have entered with new force and emphasis into the routine of their duties. The paper read by Mr. Myles Hook on, Monday before the Institution of Post Office Eletrical’ Engineers shows how much ingeniiity “has been directed to ob- taining torrect time, and how greatly the problem: of time distribution has beenstmplified by electricians ‘during the last few years. The failure of certain installations of synchronized clocks, resulting in the stopping of all the clock® in a district or bullding sim- ultaneously, no doubt prejudiced the public #gainst the wide adoptios of | such methods of regulation, and past failures in electrical synchronfzation should be taken as a warning against the use of electrical synchronizing with | movements of low-grade workmanship. It is curious that the use of the tel phone as a means of conveying an ap- proximation to correct time was not Jample fihgp Useful Christmas Gifts in Furs, Coats and Suits referred to in the paper, although wirgless telegraphy received notice.

Since 1899, when the United States supplanted Great Britain, this country has_held first place among the coal- producing countries of the world. In 1911 the total world’s production of coal amounted to approximately 1,300,- 000,000 short tons, of which the United States contributed 496,221,168 tons, or 381 per cent. In the 12 years from | 1899, when the country first surpasse Great Britain, to 1911 the production of the United States has increased | nearly 100 per cent. while Great britain has Increased its output about 25 -er cent, from 246(506,155 shorl | tons to 304,518,927 tons. The United | States in 1911 produced over 60 per | cent more than Great Britain. Ger- many’s production of coal and lignite in 1899 was 149,719,766 short tons; in 1911 it was 258,223,763 toms, an in- | crease of over 10 per cent. The com- | bined production of Great Britain and | Germany in 1911 was ,690° short | tons, which exceeded the output of the United States by. only 66,521,522 tons or 115 per cent. The three countries —United States, Great Britain, and Germany—produce more than 80 per cent ‘of the worlds total supply of | coal. END LIVER TROUBLE WITHOUT CALOMEL Untrustworthy Drug, Thought Loosen the Teeth, Now Made Absolutely Unnecessary, Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets—the sub- stitute for calomel—are the mildest but surest laxative known, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous They are the result of Dr. Edwar determination not to treat liver. and bowel complaints’ with calomel. Dr. Edwards has been calomel's uncom- promising foe. His efforts to banish it _brought out these little ollve-oil- colored tablets, a rare combination of vegetable compounds mixed with olive 1. These pleasant, harmless little tablets do all the £o0d-that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don’t injure the teeth like strong liqulds or ealomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it Why cure th® liver at the expense of the " teeth? sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel at all, but to let Olive Tablets take' their place. Most headaches, “qullness” and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take .Olive Tablets when you feel “loggy” and | “heavy.” "Note how they ‘“clear” the | clouded brain and how they “perk up” | the spirits.
