It Is a very familiar fact that peo

On The Ocean Bottom.
Hitting Inside a submarine on an
ocean bottom you would be no more
conscious of the enormous water
pressure without than if you were
going to sleep In your own bed. You
might remain twenty-four hours un
der water without coming up, using
only the natural air supplied In the
boat without feeling the least un
comfortable. If you wished, you
might remain down four or five days,
tapping the air tank as you needed
a fresh supply of air. In the mean
time you wonld bunk over the tor

newt Talks to Outlth WrrM.
Before the year closes Southwest
Coast cities will be on apeaklng
terms with Needles and other des-rt
points, Including Br-archllpht. Nev.
The first link In this Immense tele
phone system was completed bet
ween Manvel and Searchlight Satur
day. The main trunk line la now
building out from Salt Lake City,
eventually to connect with Los An
geles, and will be a link with the
Needles-Arizona system connecting
most of the desert mining towns.
That actual construction of the bis
trunk line is under way Is news to
Coast people, but It has actually
been completed between Salt Lake
and Wells, Nev., the first message
going over the line last Monday.
Gangs are now rushing to toropl
Uon the line to Ploche. From there
It will be a small matter to connect
with Searchlight, across the State
line, and when this Is done Coast
counties will be able to talk with
Rait Lake.
HE DEFENDS TIPriXG.
Maa Who Was Once a Waiter Con.
Riders Other's Standpoint.
"Somehow I don't approve ther
wholesale kicks on the tipping sys
tem," said a business man who Is
fairly prosperous. "I was a waiter
myself once and know how It seems
from the other side.
"Oh, no, I wasn't a regular pro
fessional, merely one of the college
brand. Many college men, of course,
help themselves through college by
working as waiters and bellboys and
boatmen and other things at sum
mer resorts, and If they are squeam
ish about taking tips, why. It Isn't
worth while taking such Jobs.
"It came hard at first to take tips;
gars me a sort of a feeling that I-wss
nnrlasslng myself. But It wore off.
In fact there was a certain amount
of satisfaction, after a while. In get
ting a tip that had been earned by
giving more careful service than the
Job really demanded. I remember
now the pleasure It gave me to re
ceive a gratuity, and the "thank you'
was always meant.
"So now when life Ilea In less ard
uous places I find pleasure In giving
a tip. I do not regard It as an over
ctierce or an extortion, merely a
Mflo reward that I can well afford
o give to one who will appreciate
It.
"If more rei'Fons woi!ld only look
on that slie of the question, t ie
pleasure that a grsmlty gives the
rerlnt'-nt, 1 am sure there would be
le s kicking. Surely there is Joy In
kindness, at least I have found It
so."
IVr.r M.ttrrirl Frr llritKh Army.
If tbere be any doubt that physi
cal deterioration in the submersed
classes Is more serious than It us1
lo be the report of the Army Medi
cal Denartmret pins one down bet
ween tl-at opinion and the conclu
sion that the army is recruited from
a lcwer soclnl stratum. "Average
British recruits." the report sta'.r3,
"are not only the yonneest but in the

In any civilized arcy. They cannot
stand work which did not Injure well
fed conscripts of twenty years ol
ape; still less can they face exerc':t's
which would do harm to rob; et
men." They are in fact from v.ant
of food and from cigarette habit such
miserable specimens of humanity
that It takes two years to make men
of them. The report confirms what
we said the other day, to the effect
that a British army Is painfully pro
dueed from the army of the British
unemployed; as manv as 95 per cent,
of accepted recruits are hopeless
"out of works." There Is a good
deal amiss with the conditions that
make these degenerates and the re

when he came back he found her bUW

"I have come back after many

In English towns, a Canadian Tlal

to see that glorious chariot called a

two-wheeled thing, white and yel

and blue, with the shining brass
churn erect at the side, the reins
co-nln over the shining brass rail
In front, the little square seat in
serted at the rear, and the charioteer
standing at the back like Ben Hur
and driving as much like that hero
as In a modern town where even
motor cars are not unknown la
practicable.
Then the English milkman who
corres on foot, with a modem yoke
on his shoulders, and swinging at
eacn sine a brass bound tin pal). In

a paper sealed top, when be can have
It measured out at his door Into hlr
own Jug In this quaintly curious
fashion? What do microbes amount
to compared with the Joy of the med
laeval! Highest Reslanrant la World.
What Is probably the highest res
taurant In the world has been opened
at the Elsmeer station of the Jung
frau railway in Switzerland, says thr
"Sphere." It is situated 10.000 feet
above sea level, close to the summit
of the mountain.
The food Is not rooked by means
of ordinary fuel, but by electricity
yenerated by the Lutschlne water
fall, deep down In the valley below
The cooking Is done on the principle
of the so-called "Paplnlan digester,"
cs, owing to the rarefaction of the
air at that great altitude, water bolls
much more quickly, and would evap
orate before cooking the food.
With an expenditure of thirty kil
owatts of electrical energy It is pos
sible to prepare a five-course dinner
for a party of one hundred persons
in a very short time. The guests are
accommodated In a large hall hewn
out of the solid rock and heated by
electricity. The view from the huge
windows comprises mountain scen
ery which for grandeur has perhaps
no equal in the world.
Before the Day of Matches.
Sixty years ago the use of Pint
and steel to produce a fire was not
wholly unknown. The late William
E. Stone, of Peoria. 111., lived a
Beaver, Pa. His father one warm
August night was striken with ap
oplexy. The fire was out In the
kitchen hearth and his mother In her
distress, unable to find the tinder
box, was obliged to send his brother
Marsh two miles and a half to a
neighbor. She gave him a handful
of tow, which he put In bis pocket.
Arousing a neighbor with some diffi
culty, she gave him a live coal, which
be wrapped in the tow, and putting
It back In his pocket, ran home.
When he arrived there he swung the
tow around his head, thus fanned
the coal and produced a Same which
lighted a candle. In the meantime
relief bad been so long coming that
the father was past all surgery.
Milder Definition.
At Emerson's dinner table one day
there was mention of a woman well
known as a lion hunter; and, In
speaking of her, Mrs. Emerson used
the word "snob." Mr. Emerson ob
jected, the word was too harsh; he
jldn't like that ugly class of words
beginning with "En." His wife In
quired how he would characterize
the lady. "I should say" very
tlowly "Bhe la a person havlna
zreat svmpathy with success."

debts of the ton next largest Ameri

Cows In the Streets of Munich.
About one-half the draught animals

connecting links with the old life,
when all were cows. These Interest

for ly.ng In the streets, chewing their
cuds when not ctiAged In the hauling

of annoyance, because It disturbs trat

and the inhabitants a. a very proud of
them and of .Munich s rise to the posi

as they delight to call her. Hence in
terference with traffic Is the unpar
donable sin. It is oae of the city's
most interesting sights to see mobs of
vociferous men gcttiDg cows off the
track. Only then does one understand
tue possibilities of the German tongue.
It is interesting to observe the horses

hitched to one side of a single wagon
