"The picture postcard habit is en tirely too stow tor a portion of the American people," remarked a tiav eling man at The Talking Chandler today, "and I'u.slcnids. from now on the long suffering will have surcease from the bombardment of impressionist pictures made by a threshing machine, and will no lon ger be compelled to figure out who has offended by a critical examina tion of the handwriting in which they are addressed. The talking postcards is on its way from France and will be placed in every city and village In the country. The person wishing to send a talking postal card to a friend enters the booth and talks into a machine that records the words on a specially prepared postcard. When the recipient re ceives the card 100 or 1,000 miles away, he, or perhaps she, takes the card to the nearest booth and in serts it in a machine which talks tho message it contains. The record on the postalcard Is indestructible, and the exact voice of the sender is heard." SARCO UNIQUE PAVING. Kankakee City Council Experiments With Inexpensive Material. Various cities may be Interested in the investiga tion of the Kankakee, 111., city council, which has been studying the value of "Sarco" as street paving. Sarco is a rubbery substance that is handled like tar. It comes in tin cans about the size of a barrel. There Is practically no waste. The stuff is simply cut out of the cans, thrown Into kettles and boiled down as is tar. One consideration that makes sar co preferable to asphalt in a small city Is the fact that it is not neces sary to erect a special plant. All that is required is a few Iron kettles and buckets, the substance being carried In buckets and distributed over the surface of the road. The system of construction in sar co paving is to build the road up to grade with clean rock and then sur face it for a depth of two inches with the sarco mixed with gravel roofing. It is elestic, dustlcss and noiseless. It is said that where a whole road Is built up, including tho cost of the macadam body, the cost is between GO and 70 cents a square yard. Before the adoption of sarco pav ing in Chicago a committee was sent all the way to Europe to Investigate similar paving on the continent which Is evidence that it will stand the wear or It would not bo used on Chicago's streets, where the trafllc Is considerably greater than In a smaller city. Michigan avenue from Twelfth street down town, Is not asphalt paved, as Is generally sup posed, but made of the sarco pav ing. There It Is given the hardest kind of an automobile test, a matter j which has to bo considered in the construction of streets nowadays. That the paving has stood up under the test is evident to all who have watched It. Sarco is being uted by the city of Chicago in lepairing Its Ubpluut pav ing. On Juckbon boulevard asphalt that was constructed 12 years ago Is being repaired with the sarco It Is dec In red that sarco paving will last for 20 years. SATURDAY, OCT. 16 And continue for ONE WEEK.

CLEVELAND, 0., Oct. 21. After masquerading as a boy for three years, playing boys' games-, working In a local livery stable, driving a grocer's team and hustling heavy boxes and express packages, heavy enough' for a strong young man, Harry Robert has confessed to the police "he" Is a girl, and that "his" name is Lillian Hoffman, stepdaugh ter of Gottlieb Meiers, 2644 East Seventy-third street. Three years ago the girl, then on ly 17, tired of her home. She ran away, donned boys' clothing and went out into the world to work as a man. She secured work. In the time that has elapsed, tho girl has worked in a livery stable cleaning horses, driving grocer's carts, and even toiled as a helper to a carpen ter, and delivered 'ice. Her identity became known a short time ago when she was arrest ed while in the employ of D. Mar tin, a grocer, S507 Detroit avenue, on a small charge. Sentence was suspended, but the police looked further into Roberts' career. They found no serious acts other than the one, but they discovered that the boy, who up to a few days ago was back working in a livery stable, was a girl. The young woman made a confession, and today her stepfather brought her some clothing girls' clothes. The parents ascribe the child's strange bent as being due to a love for horses. The girl says she has always wanted to be a boy. HOT TAMALES at Corthell's. SUNDAY CLOSING RULING. Judge Hamilton Rules Against Port land Decision. PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 20. In the circuit court, Judge J. W. Hamil ton overruled the demurrer filed by Attorney Dexter Rice in behalf of A. F. Herrington, proprietor of a local resort, charging ' him with keeping his place of business open on Sun day, contrary to the Sunday closing law. With a decision of the circuit court of Multnomah county to sup port his contention, Attorney Rice argued that the Sunday closing stat ute was unconstitutional. Judge Hamilton considered the question properly one for the supreme court to decide. He admitted that there was some doubt In his own mind on the question and stated that in view of this doubt it was the duty of the court to stand by the statute, which was enncted by a legislature as far back as IS 5 4. As the case now stands it will have to go to trial in the local court unless the defendant enters a plea of guilty. nnv'i n"ij ic fMtr 4 iuJH .. . ...... , We offer Oae Hundred pollnrs Reiwird for nnv es-3 of ciunirli tliut cannot bo cured uj Hall's Ciitiir.h On.e. 1' J.
