Ever notice how worn and battered
traveling men's grips and bags?
The knight of the road who tells you

“A traveling man will cling to the
old bag as long as the handles
stay on it and it will hold together,”
said a veteran traveling man, “I had
two traveling bags in 20 years
the road. You'll often see an old
man, with the same grip he start-
out with. He'll have it repaired

Another superstition of the men who

Pneumatic Milk Tubes.
During a court inquiry into the
cost of milk at New York the
gestion was made that pneumatic
tubes, formerly used in the mail gerv-
fee, be utilized to’ distribute
various sections of the city.
of the pneumatic distributor was de-
clared to be far more economical than
the present methods, thus bearing dt
dectly upon the cost of milk, the sub-
ject of the inquiry. It Is not the
plan, however, of the persons suggest.

through the tubes In streams, In-
stead carriers of metal are to be em
ployed to convey under high alr press.
