Scurrilous remarks are being hurled at the state of the weather, without any appreciable better ment in the state of the weather.

BRIGHTEST REMARK JO YEARS AGO YESTERDAY 'There was a sprinkling of soldiers and a downpour of 2nd ' loots In the Memorial Day parade."

TROLLEYS STAGING COME-BACK WHAT tlie street railway business of this i-ouiitry mel is a complete emne-baek. There is probably less bot news in this than in the statement that the come-back now seems immi nent. Of all the romances of industry, nothim; can beat "the come back." It provides as heroic ami and romantic a tale as the come-back in boxing, or morals or knivht-errajitry. Take spin ach. Five or ten years ago there was nolower or more ties'-! business on earth than the spinach business. Spinach was a mki Anvhndv seen eatim; .spinach was undoubtedly a little rpueer.

Take prunes. Kive years ayo they were the hallmark of lif . among the lowly. The failure, whether fruit or human, was "a poor prune." JVople had grown up to believe the prune simply illustrated a boarding house landlady's dreadful sense of hu nir. Today the prune is advertised mi full paes in four colors, is packed in fancy dut-proof, air-tiu'ht cartons, is eaten proudly and with relish by dukes, debutantes and dunderheads, and costs real money. The street car is going to repeat the story of the prune. It has to. After havnii; been in the dumps for many years, tne electric railway industry has started in to modernize its plant and equip ment. It is replacing heavy, slow vehicles, with lifht, fast ve hicles. .Street ears are being made more comfortable, and the ; service is being improved. Altogether, si'-'ns are beginning to appear in many directions mat ine industry, oy some super human effort, is lifting itself by its own bootstraps, and stagin" a hcalthv come-back. Raymond S.

Please tell me how to deal with nosebleed, especially where it is a repeated occurrence and consid erable blood is lost. R. .J. Answer. In ordinary nosebleed the person should sit leaning for ward slightly, head bent forward moderately, and hold both nostrils closed between his thumb and fin ger and breathe through the mouth until the bleeding stops. Then he should avoid blowing the nose un til an hoar has passed. Anything cold on the back of the neck tends to stop nosebleed.

SUND.OWN STORIES MOON TALKS ON By Mary Graham Bonner '" ' "Diana," the Moon told John and Peggy, "was called the goddess of the moon she was the twin sister of Apollo, god of the sun. Every evening, it was said, right after the sun had finished his course Diana would mount her ' moon car and drive her milk white steeds across the heav.', ens. .while . the stars would cheer, t; her on her way. " "Oh, oh, oh,',' in almost all nn?t tions I have been loved and even worshipped. "Oh, the people who have wish ed on a new moon as they call It! "People have made up so much poetry about me but not being able to hear any sound they could never come and recite It to me." John and Peggy nodded. , "The Kskimo people," he wont on, "believed that I had a hallway in my home in which all the cold was kept out. In Ur, a very, very, very old city in Chaldea, they used to worship me. "At a certain hour each month they arranged with mirrors to throw a reflection of me into a chair which was called the moon god's chair. When people saw this reflection they believed I had come right down to the earth to sit in the chair! "Years and centuries ago people knew about my eclipses ami they uwd to mark important events tin their calrnriiirt. by my actions. "In fact tho number of days In the week in tho olderr, olden time?, paid great respect to sky charac ters. They called Sunday the Sun's day, Monday the Moon's day, Tues day was Mars' day, Wednesday was Mercury's .day, Thursday Jupi- ." tor's day. Friday- Venus day, Sat urday Saturn's day. "Then, of course, later, the Teu tons had different gods, chief of whom was Woden, god of war and also of the sky. He was like the Greeks' Jupiter and Mars together. Woden had Wednesday named after him. Thor. god of thunder, was once Thursday and then It was changed to Thursday.
