HE erent gale that blew in with Washington’s Birthday will | I not soon bo forgotten. It wns the biggest New York ever knew. Ninety-six miles an hour the breeze travelled. The weather man said that for a minute the rate was ono hundred and ien miles. The highest previous rate ever recorded in the United | States was one hundred and two miles at St. Paul, Minn. | The meteorological hooks call anything over sixty miles an hour “a great storm.” Over eighty miles means “a hurricane.” One hun- dred miles is termed “a great hurricane carrying trees before it.” New York, then, has juat gone through “a great hurricane.” The city weathered its big wind wonderfully woll. Signs, shut- tere and panes of glass euffered. People who left the milk bottle on the window gill got a surprise in the morning. But of serious damage there was little or none. The great skyscrapers, with their thousands of square feet of exposed wall towering into the air, bore the test admirably. With a wind of ninety-six miles an honr every foot of thore hundreds of thousands must stand up to a pressure of forty-eight pounds. The building code requires provision only for @ wind of some seventy miles an hour with a pressure of thirly pounds to the équare foot. | Yet, with the exception of broken windows, not one of the tall | buildings reported damage. The city may congratulate {tadlf upon having passed a severe test with flying colors. Indeed, throughont the morning the flags flew bravely until hun- @rods had been torn to ribbons and most of the remainder had prn-| dently to be hauled down. In the late afternoon hardly a dozen | were left aloft, and several of those were only stars and etrips. soi iocildpiassta A WOMAN’S CHANCES. T* plan of the Brooklyn priest who suggesta a fine of onc, hundred dollars for every young man who reaches his twenty-fifth birthday unmarried, and a legal requirement that every unmarried woman must propore at least three timer each leap year, recalls an interesting table which was once compiled. Reckoning a woman's entire chance of marrying at one hundred, the table purports to give her varying chances at different times of life. For example, between the ages of fifteen and twenty her chance | in 141-2 per cent. Between twenty and twenty-five it jumps to 5? per cent., falling between twenty-five and thirty to 18, and to 15 per cent. between thirty and thirty-five. After forty it is only 2 per cent., and after sixty she has only one chance in a thousand. The priest thinks that “training, tradition and the natnral bashfulness of the American girl” keep her from speaking first. | Undoubtedly they do, and it is to be hoped they will continue ao to do. “Natural baehfulnoss,” as the Father calls it, will go farther and faster in getting a good husband than any amount of cultivated boldness. ———_-42—___--_.. COLDS. HE idle man when he has a cold has it harder than the | worker. ‘This was one of the comforting ideas that came | from a group of well-known doctors who conferred on cold a few nights azo. One of them said men who did little or nothing were the mort sensitive to poisonous germs, Somebody elec thought bacteria mattered little, but that being tired was really the prime factor in catching cold. Double sete of underclothing and stockings was another recommendation. Ohe&t protectors were ,pronounced excellent—for the people who sold them; and thin shoes and stock- ings were declared dearest of all to the heart of the undertaker. On the whole the views of the conference are likely to have Tittle effect upon that stubborn person, the average man, Almost @rery grown man has fixed notions as to how he personally and indi- vidually takes cold, and no doctor shall ever convince him against. his own experience. lor the rest of the world his advice is usually that the best way of avoiding a cold is not to catvh it, just as the imures! way to escape illness is to keep well. ishing Company, Nos, 68 to) "%" a husband who tnauits her intelligence by getting jealous at everything or one who inaulta her vanity by getting jealous at nothing, Evening World Daily Magazine, Friday, February 23, a ® |e he MS tio. - Tn the Ring & 1912, Bo308 Mieco ) XA (The New Yor World.) soe i Reflections of a Bachelor Gi By Helen Rowland : rl Copyright, 1912, ty The Press Publishing Oo, (The New York World), ‘Green-Eyed Monster’?
