Ye Smoke Shop. Quit Gorging. The greatest cause of ill health among Americans, says a New York physician, is overeating. Overeating, mind you, not over drinking! Now stop a minute and consid er your own case, you who have been complaining about the heat and the climate here-about and what-not during the last several months. Could it be possible that the reason you have that pain in the head and that wilted feeling all over is that you have been stuffing yourself with too many of the good things that summer produces? Could it be that you ate just a bit too much cherry pie at luncheon to-day? Could it be that you had to open your belt a notch or two . after dinner and consequently are all but falling a sleep over this? Impudent to ask such pues tions! Oh, well such things have happened, you know; such things have happened! Cuts, Threshes and Sacks. A new harvester cuts, threshes and sacks grain in a single oper ation. The machine is described in the August Popular Mechanics Magazine. Loading wagons fol low it, picking up the sacks of grain ready for shipment The machine is drawn by two spans of horses hitched at its sides back of the cutting bars. A 40-hp. gasoline engine furnishes energy for threshing and sacking. Af ter the grain is cut it is thrown back upon tables whence it is forced into the thresher mechan ically. The grain is then carried to the sacking device, where the sacks are filled, sewed and drop ped. Uses Gasoline and Electricity. Bearing the external appear ance of an ordinary gasoline car, a gas-electric automobile, which is driven by electricity generated by its power plant, has lately been patented. The current is developed with a 10-hp. engine and 5-kw. dynamo which propel the motor. When the machine is not running at its maximum speed, which averages between 25 and 30 miles an hour, the sur plus power is diverted to thestor age batteries, which will drive the car 20 miles without recharg ing. Between 20 and 30 miles can be covered on a gallon of gasoline. A picture of the ma chine appears in the August Pop ular Mechanics Magazine. Independent manufacturers of iron, steel, and tinplate in the West and middle West have signed the new wage scale for another year on a basis of in creased wages.

Fulton County Hunters can se cure their licenses from the Coun ty Treasurer after August 15th. The tags and blanks have been changed since last year. This year the tags will be white with black numbers. ' The County Treasurer last year appointed a Justice of the Peace in each township to issue the li cense, make report to the Treas urer, who in turn made report to the Game Commissioner and the State Treasurer each month. The Department this year will not allow the Treasurer to ap point Justices to issue licenses. Justices may obtain from the Treasurer application blanks and can charge each applicant fifteen cents or less if he desires for the apt lication and then same must be forwarded to the Treasurer with $1.00 and postage for re turn of license. ' It is very likely most of the hunters will make application in person or by mail to the Treas urer providing they give the re quired answers by mail. The issuing of about 1000 li censes and all the necessary re ports makes much work for the County Treasurer especiallysince Justices are not allowed to issue. Mr. Hess informs us he will make it as convenient as possible for hunters to secure license and will before August 15th announce through this paper the form of applcation and to whom applica tion can te made.

Action follows Yherincrofabell Even the most important man in the country answers to the ring of the telephone bell. It 8 a compelling force. No one knows what that little tinkling bell may mean to him whut the message which it an nounces will bring forth. The electric energy for the curious, questioning, calling telephone bell is supplied by a little mechanism in nearly all Bell Telephone central offices, called a ringing machine. There are ten or more styles of telephone calling bells ranging from a little tea bell to a ten-inch fire gong and including sleisrh bells, cow bells, wooden ringers, etc. This is an indication of the Bell System's efforts to provide satisfactory service from every standpoint, and it is one of . many things thnt makes Bell service the most efficient telephone service in the world. rji When you telephone, smile !
