Our is not the specially alcoholic drink habit, against which White Ribboners forever wage heroic crusades and for which gold cures and other soothing remedies have been invented, but the water-drinking habit which from present indications appears to be a much more difficult ailment against which to strive. The water-drinking habit which has seized hold of as along with others appears to be a liquid nightmare that is slowly but surely inclining our thoughts to suicide by drowning; all the horrors of death seem to melt away in ecstatic vision of being cool, quite altogether and entirely cool for once more In our heated lives.

A few days of the thermometer zig-zaggfng 'round about 100" has developed the disease in such virulent form that our only peace lies in intimate association with water coolers and other sources of ice-cold supply. We are not acquainted with the man who issued the general invitation, "Will you meet me at the fountain," but it is an opportunity for refreshment not lightly to be cast aside. We will meet him and the quicker the better. We drink anywhere and everywhere where we find water and a drinking cup. We have heard pathetic tales of the drunkard's difficulty in getting past a liquor saloon, and we find the same trouble getting past a fireplug, a street sprinkler, a garden hose or even an array of Cbatto-lanee Spring water bottles.

The bathtub lures us irresistibly to its porcelain depths, and we rise at 5 A. M. and wash our hair lust to keen in touch with water. We who SHORE DINNER, 25c Crth Hraip, 3 Urgn aoft crti, or corned and frlnl pntat-s, lima bran. tnt aalod.

John." said Janet Ware la response to John's fifth proposal of marriage, "I just won't marry you nor anybody else yet. I shouldn't be satisfied to settle down In the town where I've grown up and see the same things and the same people for the rest of my life. Ton understand, don't yon, John?" The repulsed John looked as if be did not nnderstand and did not wish to understand Janet's reasoning. The only thing in the world he could understand was that he was In love with Janet. "No, Janet," he answered, "I hardly think you can expect much sympathy from me.

If you'd marry me, I'd promise some day to take you abroad. I'd work hard and save; I know I could do it. Anyway, how can you go now? Your father can't afford to send you." "Of course, he can but I've got the best plan! You see, there are seven of us and I'm the oldest. And of course, with such a big family, mother has never had time to keep up with the modern sort of Bcienrinc housekeeping. You know, I took a course in domestic science." "Yes," admitted John.

"Well, of course, I can see where there's a lot of wasted effort and money in this household," continued Janet sagely. "Now I'm going to keep house for a year and father says I can have what I save." Janet hesitated to watch th ofTeee her startling statement on n. hut rh effect was not encouraging, and she went UU. "In the first place I'll dismiss tho cAir and the maid they're just ready to ieae anyway. And I'll get one good, substantial servant and she and I'll do the work.

I'll save lots that way, and by superintending the cooking I'll avoid waste and save a lot more." Janet paused again, but John's expression, showed no sign of relenting sympathy, so she went on "You see I'll get one servant for, say, $16 a month. We pay these two $36 a month. That will be $20 a month $250 about a year, besides the board of one of them $5 a week. I should think. How much is five times fifty-two?" "Two hundred and sixtv" innt0i.0H John glamly.

well, there's over five hundred beside the saving of waste. And tlien rn hno garden and grow all our own vegetables ami oesiaes peine cheaper, they'll be a lot healthier, and so we won't have doctors' bills. You see, John? I'll have six or seven hundred dollars and I could go quite a bit on that. "Perhaps when I come home, John, and get ready to 6ettle down" Janet started but, noting the hopeful look of John's face, she laughingly left her sentence unfin ished and bade him a decided good-night. Thus Janet Ware's year of money-earning began.

Within a week she had dismissed the two well-trained servants from the Ware kitchen, bad installed therein in their places a "green" young girl fresh from Finland, whose only ambition seemed to be to answer every question with her one English phrase "You bet" and had hired a gardener by the day for three days to spade and rake and plant the garden. From the beginning the task of earning money by saving it was a hard one for Janet. Her first month's savings were spent before the first month was done. She spent $10 in plants and seeds for the garden and she spent another $10 in equipping her one-maid kitchen new cook books, casseroles, double boilers, patent egg beaters and mops and various other labor-saving devices. Besides that Lena, the new maid, had broken so much china and, through Ignorance, ruined so much food that the bill for waste which Janet had hoped to do away with altogether was double its usual size.

One other thing bothered Janet. John Wilson, who after each of his other four repulsed proposals had doggedly returned MUSIC IN CLIFTON NEWNESS. Let me help and pity yon If you say there's nothing new; That this everydayness grinds Through its round of hearts and minds, Till a thing of etaleness life Turns to dust on lips of strife. Let me show you how to see Measureless variety In the comlDg of each dawn, In the shadows on the lawn; And, moreover, how complete In. all elements of sweet.

We verily believe if we set out to purchase a house we would buy a boat in mistake. We wish we could live or else die in the surf and a prospect of personal burial at sea has the utmost fascination.

We used to hear with indifference of water-cure establishments, of people going to foreign spas to drink the waters of mineral springs, and we heard with incredulity of the number of glasses drunk before and after meals. We smiled sadly at such wanderings from the paths of truth. Since becoming victims of unquenchable thirst ourselves we have awakened to the painful truth. Those unhappy people go to these spas with some trifling ailment, such as acute rheumatism perhaps; some unscrupulous physician. Inoculates them with the germ of the water-drinking habit, hypnotizes them into seeking an arbored spring, and their unquenchable thirst does the rest.

They drink and drink in a way that would mortify the most unconventional of fishes, and their last state is infinitely worse than their first. Drinking ourselves rapidly to death, haunted by visions of spring houses, pumps, rivers, canals, ice ponds, even In our sleeping hours, we worry on from one hot day to another, and like beggars at wayside shrines we can but beseech the passing pilgrim to pray for our deliverance from our heat-created wretchedness. Eilkaline is a material for which the average woman finds many uses and among yesterday's bargains was a counter of this material for 11 cents a yard. It included several lovely shades of violet, greens from a rich dark emerald to a Nile, three shades of soft brown, pretty blues and white, both dotted and plain. Smart separate coats of big black and white checks, very "English" both in material and make, are on sale for $19.75.

These garments are called English sports coats and are exceedingly good looking. Bathing suits are a subject of interest ju6t now and the ready-made ones are effective, of good material and cheap. Sult3 can be bought as low as $1.50 and for $4 and $5 really charming costumes can be found. To mend a hole in a sweater, use yarn as for darning start at the top and chain-stitch down the length of the hole with a darning needle, catching each hole securely. You will then have a neat piece of work and the hole will be quite unnotlceable.

The bell, or pagoda, parasol is one of the odd features of the summer, but it is doubtful if this style is as cool or as becoming a sunshade as the old, widely open kind. STUDENTS TOURING ABROAD. Donald Knipp Belt, T. Brooke Price and Horace Byers, of the class of 1912 of Johns Hopkins University, are spending the summer touring through Europe. They will visit Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Italy, Holland and France, and expect to take a zigzag journey through rural England and Scotland on bicycles.

They will return to Baltimore early in October. to try bis luck again at Janet's liands, had almost disappeared from Janet's daily life, and Janet realized that be raissed him. When she met him occasionally he quietly told her that be was working a little harder than usual and seldom had time for sociability. But in spite of all her discouragements and trials Janet bought a huge ledger and put down in it a detailed account of her finances. On one page she would put down 15 cents for green corn seed, and on the opposite page she would make an entry of this sort: "I ought to get at least 10 dozen ears of corn from this! and at 20 cents a dozen that would be $2 $2 would pay my fare from London to Windsor and back, or else it would pay for a drive around Paris." By fall, four or five months after she had started her scheme of economy, Janet's European trip was well worked out in the pages of her ledger.

But she knew that the coveted trip was still a long distance abead. One September morning as she was weeding in what remained of the garden she was musing uncomfortably on the fact that she had twice raised Lena's wages Lena had added to her English vocabulary the demand, "More English more mun" that she had found it necessary to have a gardener a day a week in the garden end that his wages had practically equaled the saving she had made on vegetables, and that somehow, in slte of working and planning incessantly, it did cost money to supply food for the ine members of the family and their numerous guests. "Sis," a shrill voice interrupted her musings, "what's the smoke in the kitchen? I guess the house is on fire." "Oh. dear me," said Janet, running from the garden to the kitchen door, "that's the cake I put in that oven, burned to a crisp. That's what I get for doing two things at once.

Botheration," she ended crossly as she opened the oven and pulled out the charred layers. She was sorrowfully looking at the ruin when she heard the voice of her 20-year-old brother. "Janet," it said, "I've asked six of the fellows to come here this evening just for a sort of round-up before we go back to college and I wish you'd get up a good feed. Your chicken salad would be just right and that kind of ice-cream you make with candied cherries and nuts and those bully little cakes you make with, whipped cream In them, and" "Oh, Janet," called a voice from upstairs, "isn't this great? Here's a note from Aunt Martha saying she and Undo Tom and Cousin Bess are all coming for a week. Isn't that perfectly delightful Lena, hot and flustered, worked noisily about the kitchen.

She looked up suddenly as this last announcement dawned upon her understanding. "Company?" she queried. "Too much. I work too hard. You give me more money "No, Lena, not another cent," said Janet decidedly.

"Then I go. I now speak much English. More English, more mun." Janet walked deliberately to the telephone. First she called up the intelligence office and engaged two experienced servants then she called up John Wilson at his office. "Hello, John," she began, "why dontt you come and see me?" "I've been busy," answered John.

"Well, can you come see me today?" "Yes, I think so. What luck have you had with your summer's work?" "Oh I haven't had very good luck at least well, I have not earned the trlp but I have learned how to keep house." "That's too bad. I've had better luck. I've worked hard and got enough money together for a trip to Europe." "Oh," said Janet, "John, maybe you'd better not bother to come to see me, after all." "But, Janet," said John, "I've planned a trip for two. Will you be home in 20 minutes? I want to tell you who's going with me." PARK TONIGHT where.

By this means, Mr. Chesnut" said, Mr. Ritchie's tables showed the overhead charges to amount to 65 per cent, of the actual structural cost, when the company claimed they would be but 25 per cent. The direct examination of Mr. Lindsay was concluded yesterday, and his cross-examination will begin on Tuesday jnorn-ing, when the hearing is again taken up.

It will likely occupy the greater part of the day. The case will be heard four days next week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. PARTY AT MANTUA MILLS. Mr. and Mrs.

He declared that he was in his office when news of the "runaway" was brought to him.

URGES STRICT CERTTFICATIOIT If This Cannot Be Accomplished, Physician Sugg-ests Inspection. Dr. John Ruhrah, professor of pediatrics at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, has some definite Ideas about city life in summer. In an Interview yesterday he said "There are several essentials to the health of city dwellers. Four of the most important of these are pure water, good sewerage, clean, well-paved and dust-free streets and pure milk.

"These things affect the health and comfort of every citizen. The rich and the poor alike suffer from the lack of them or rejoice in their possession, or would do if they recognized their economic valae. We have good sewerage assured efforts are being made to have pure water, and the paved streets will doubtless follow the sewers. The next problem demanding the attention of those who would better municipal conditions is the milk supply. "There is no question that impure milk is responsible for an enormous amount of unnecessary disease and death.

How can the milk be made better? In some cities much has been done by certifying milk known to be of a certain standard of purity. This is by means of a milk commission. "It would mean that high-class dealers would find it an advantage to have their milk certified, as the more enlightened of the citizens would soon demand certified milk. If this cannot be done, an inspection of milk farms and of the shops handling milk could be made, and the results of their investigations could be published for the direction of the public using the accepted numerical score. "Much could be done in providing for the pasteurization of all milk, or, at any rate, of such milk as does not come up to a certain standard.

"The sale of milk from open churns should be forbidden by law, and only bottled milk permitted. "The whole problem of milk production can be summed up in two words -Cleanliness and The only way to have milk keep is to have it clean and to keep it cold. "The public should be instructed. One of the best ways of reaching the people in general would be to use the moving picture. Properly taken films, accompanied by an explanatory talk, would place the subject before the people in a way which nothing else could.

"The free distribution by visiting nurses and social workers of clearly worded directions for the care of the milk in the home will continue to influence a large number of milk consumers. They, too. must be tanyht the value of keeping milk clean and cold, and also that there is no method to make dirty milk clean nor spoiler-milk good. "The work which the Woman's Civic League has taken up cannot too highly commended." MARRIED IN WASHINGTON Mrs. Ward Becomes Wife Of Mr.

Ritchie hurled questions at the witness, some of which he answered willingly and others he said he could not answer without consulting records. In reply to a question regarding the officials of the company in the different years Mr. Cohn stated that A. S. Miller was vice-president and S.

Davles Warfield chairman of the executive committee at the time of both consolidations, and that other officials remained substantially the same. Some Sharp Tilts. Mr. Ritchie then asked If there were any changes in the stock control. To this question counsel for the Gas company objected, and the people's advocate changed it by asking if the majority holdings were in the same hands.

The witness replied that of his own knowledge he could not say. Mr. Ritchie asked the same question in several forms, but Mr. Cohn declined to make a definite statement, answering that the owners of the majority of the stock were shown in records and that without consulting them he would be unable to answer. "I am not trying to evade any questions," the witness began, but Mr.

Ritchie interrupted, "Then answer them." Mr. Chesnut objected to Mr. Ritchie's method of questioning the witness, and after several other attempts he desisted upon a promise from Mr. Cohn that a chart would be prepared showing the majority stockholders and the board of directors following each consolidation. On the cross-examination Mr.

Chesnut brought out the statement that Mr. Cohn did not mean the board of directors remained substantially the same when speaking of the management of the company. Following Mr. Cohn's testimony a long discussion over the proper definition of "overhead charges" resulted, Mr. Chesnut and his associate, Vernon Cook, stating that Mr.

Ritchie had included in his estimate of overhead charges items which the company asserted should be placed else Thousands of dollars being spent to tell about the goodness DETROIT.
