the public, utility companies of the country to pro
vide service for all additional million inhabitants,
I". one of the IntereslitiK facts brought forth in the
recently published report of Senator Willard M.
Caller's committee on lie.consti uction and Production.
Alter a sea rolling inquiry into the various conditions bear
ing upon the housing situation and the country's industrial pro
duction, 1 lie Committee finds that the business of public util
ities has outgrown their plant facilities owing to the inability
of the companies to finance improvements and additions nec
essary to take care of the increased service demands.
"Prior to the war," states the Coinm'ttec, "it is estimated
that tin! normal annual requirements of electric railway, gas,
and electric light and power companies for extensions, better
ments, and improvements was about $500,000,000, proportion
ed as folows: Klectric railways, $250,000,000; gas com
panies, $125,000,000; electric light and power companies
$125,000,000.
The Committee has been informed that for four years not
over 40 per cent of such betterments has been made, leaving
an accumulation of about $1,200,000,000. If this sum Is ad
ded to $700,000,000 required alone for new residential build
ings held in abeyance, a total of approximately $2,000,000,000
seems necessary for the public utility program In the inimodi
nto future.
"The question of placing these businesses on a sound
financial basis in order that credit may flow to them is tho
same question which confronts steam railroads .md housing,
hilt in the ease of public utilities the case is more difficult be
cause there Is no central body as now provided in tjie case of
Hteani railroads which mif,ht adjust rates in proper relation
to operating posts and capital investment. The utilities like-,
wise suffer in their effort to secure new capital for necessary
extensions of service by tho almost insurmountable difficulty
of having to compete for such capital with municipal, slate and
similar tax-exempt Securities. Until these problems are sol
ved the public should recognize this underlying reason for
much of the faulty service and for the failure to provide the
additional facilities urgently demanded to meet community
needs. Paid Advertisement,

"a man
doesn't see any magazines and doesn't
receive any bulletins from the health
authorities, so he enjoys a peace that
Is never known in the busy haunts.
"There a man
simply has to sub

ThiTj uTk deserving people, and you
feel it a duty to help them along, so
the first thing you know your mail box
is jammed full of literature. Having
paid for it, you feel that you ought to
read it, and your life is ruined thereby.
"When I was young, the magazines
tried to entertain people. They had
good stories and a I 'net's Cgrner, and a
department devoted to timely jokes,
and another to household hints and do
mestic recipes. There was some sense
In reading a magazine then, for it
soothed and sustained you. But now
adays the magazine editors consider it
their duty to harrow your soul and
make your hair stand on end like
quills upon the porkful fretcuplne, or
words to that effect They are always
viewing with alarm, and trying to con
vince you that you take your life In
your hand every five minutes.
"They have a lot of health special
ists writing for them, and these health
sharps point out that pretty near ev
erything you eat and drink is a deadly
poison. They didn't scare me to any
great extent, for I am a most Intrepid
man, but they soon had my wife so
rattled she didn't know whether she
was going or coming.
"I always was passionately fond of a
good cup of coffee, and my wife could
make the best coffee, you ever heard
of. She went to work at it like a
learned apothecary compounding a
prescription. There was no guess
work about it. She took an honest
pride In it, and her coffee was a reve
lation to every consumer. I used to lie
awake at night wishing It was break
fast time, so I could have my morning
cup of coffee. '
"But one morning when I went to
the table, the coffee was mls'slng. In
its place there was a sickly beverage I
had never seen before. I asked an ex
planation, and my wife said that no
more coffee would be made in our
house, 'The wonder Is,' said she, 'that
we still live and move and have our be
ing, for coffee Is a rank poison. If you
rend Dr. Zlnkfoogle's article In the
Junkcpolilan Magazine, you will see
that coffee contains a large percentage
of tannin, which Is so deadly that If
you place a drop on the tongue of an
alligator, it will roll over, dead."
"I told her that I had no alligators
en the premises, and consequently could
not-try the experiment, but I assured
her that I didn't cure anything about
the poison. I wanted my coffee at
regular hours. She said I'd have to
keep on wanting. She thought too
much of me to send me to an untimely
grave. And, anyhow, she explained
lr. Zlnkfoogle had told how to make a
substitute for coffee that was perfect
ly wholesome. She had followed his
instructions, and the result was before
me. I'crhaps It didn't taste as good as
coffee, but It was wholesome. It would
till my veins with red corpuscles and
restore hair to my bald bead. It was
made of marrowfat peas which had
been carefully roasted in a hot oven.
"In order to get a cup of coffee after
that I hud to make a sneak to the
chop house, and the kind dished up
there made me old before my time. My

The furs that are being worn just
now vary between the sables and
minks, ami little animals of the same
general appearance, to the largest
ami most sumptuous foxes in
existence. These ure thrown over -the
shoulders whether it is a suit that is
worn or a dress of any sort. They
are the finish that makes the whole
out Sir look just right and, whether the
animal he the most expensive sable
in existence or not, it still helps
the costume to appear in its most be
coming guise.
Most of the coats and capes for
spring are made without fur collars,
though a few of them are seen with
broadly designed collars made of some
fur to match the material in ' tone.
For these summer trimmings gray and
taupe caracul ure about the most
popular, though lynx Is very often seen
as a trimming for the short or iong
wrap. There are some chiffon stoles
trimmed with hands of the lighter
There was given In New York a
fur show for the general purpose of
forecasting what the fur fashions of
the coming winter season would he.
It is a little far to look ahead into
the future, especially for those of us
who are barely beginning to think
about our summer wardrobes, but it is
Interesting to note a few of the points
that were brought out' at this ex
hibit. The flat furs had everything their
own way, that Is ermine and baby lamb
and caracul and squirrel and some seal,
although there was not nearly so much
of the latter fur as might have been
expected by those not versed in the
most advanced news on this subject.
The capes and the cape coats were the
fascinating "moments" of the occasion,
for they had about them many points
thnt were new. In the first place, they
were mt wide In any sense, being just
barely ample enough to wrap about
the figure comfortably. They had
linings that were so beautiful in them
selves that one did not know which
was more beautiful, the lining or the
wrap itself.
The sleeves were plain and wide and
straight, not being gathered Into any
cuff bunds. The collars were straight,
very wide, and then turned hack over
themselves so that they really hecame
double layers of fur. Many of the
wraps were held in nt the waistline by
narrow, tied belts and others of them,
m enpe form, were made so that they
wrapped about the figure in graceful,
circular folds.
