This is the first beautiful day we have seen since leaving Medford the latter part of June. There have been a few rainy days, a great many hot sweltering days, but not until today has the atmosphere been clear, bright, cool, and invigorating. In the weather reports there have been plenty of fair and warmer predictions which were realized, but through the weeks spent in the East, not a clear day there was always a thick, oppressive haze, which obscured the sun, but increased the humidity and the heat. The East was like a close room, without a breath of fresh air stirring. But early this morning Chicago opened the windows and the doors, the haze was swept away, revealing a gorgeous, eloar, dark blue sky, while the sapphire waters of Lake Michigan danced in the bright sunlight. It was a perfect day to see the fair, and now with the day over, one is not surprised to learn that all Saturday attendance records for this year were broken. , The Denver nephew was up betimes, with two guide books under his arm, one dealing with the Hall of Science, the other with the Electrical Building, As one day had been spent, in self education along these lines, the young man was persuaded much against his will, to investigate some of the lighter phases of this Century of Progress exposition. ,So we boarded a bus for the Enchanted Island and the Midway. Here was a sort of glorified street carnival, with the usual side shows, merry-go-rounds, traptions to extract from the pockets of the proletariat, their hard earned dimes and nickels. The raucous barkers were busy with their free shows before the main tent, and meeting as far as we could see with indifferent The nephew found little that chamois money bag, fastened to street carnivals in Denver. But a dark eyed beauty waylaid Aunty, with an offer of a moving picture of the young man for only 15 cents, and three minutes time by pressing a little card frame in her hand, she showed a sample a little girl would smile, roll her eyes, grimace and irown it amused Aunty very much.

Solemnly consulting his wrist watch, attached by a large silver link bracelet, he found that the three minutes had already been consumed, and the operation was not yet over, when bored young lady, with Mary oi an ox-Dlood tint, finally pulled the finished product from a brass tube, the same wrist watch (There were no such discrepancies, and unredeemed promises in the wall or science i; However the pioture was amusing, and he took pleasure in operating it. tie diagnosed it as a composite exposure nothing unusual or mysterious the pressure on the cardboard frame, manipulated a transparent film covering which showed the sub ject smiling, and slightly cock-oyed, exceedingly thoughtful the next. !h T)aa 1 .1 1 ;i. 1 !l J u xjub,uu wuuiu imo w hob it, ana aLLer ner inspection, ne would mail it to the family at home.

A boat tour down Lost River, viewing the wonders of pre historic times with the nodding heat of a giant dinosaur, func tioning in the place of the usual "come on" barker, however gave him pause. He had read about dinosaurs, and giant sloths, and the Nean derthal Man, and if this didn't take too long, perhaps, he would chance it. So with spectacles wiped clean, the soiled Panama far back on his head, and the two guide books firmly olasped under one arm. he took his seat in the how of the. somewhat. dilapidated scow, and the expedition pushed off. it was dark within, the shallow stream wound hither and yon, the sides of the flat bottomed boat scraping on the stage scenery, aa the bored youth in the pith helmet, shoved it along, reciting something in a monotone which no one could hear. The ohiof reason for this was the noise within the antcdeluvian reptiles and the prehistorio mon, were all squealing and jabber ing at a great rate. Bloody mouths full of teeth were opening and shutting, the sabre tooth tiger was lunging and growling, the hairy mammoth was swaying and grunting. It was a sort of combination of the Eden Musee, the chamber of horrors, and the inside of a concrete mixer which hadn't been oiled for thrco or four weeks. Sudden changes from abysmal darkness to bril liant electric light, accentuated the horrors of course. Ihe boat soon returned to davlmht and Renin under thft nncp of the nodding dinosaur.

THE DRUNKS Young man driving ear with four p&RMngera attempted a quick awerve from the) path of another oar at corner and layf'jwJft wrecked upon lamppost, some of his passengers were seriously Injured. Just who was at fault ts uncertain, but anyway the young man was arrest ed for drunken driving, and held in Jail on some technicality which precluded ball. Some of his friends brought strong influence to boar, but the Judge was firm and the young man served his time In Jail. He and his friends Indignantly declare he had had "only one or two" drinks at the party they had attend' ed. The familiar alibi. If I were 1 Judge one drink would be ample to sustain the charge. It seems to me that any person who deliberately takes a drink and then attempts to drive an auto mobile deserves censure or punish ment for recklessly endangering the life and limb of the other driver or the pedestrian who happens to cross his path. Now this Is an assertion of scien tific fact and not a mere opinion of a prejudiced crank. By actual mea surements It haa been ascertained that a person who has had one or two little drinks Is from one-fifth to two-fifths of a second slower In re acting to a signal, if auch a person sees another driver bearing down on him or a pedestrian crossing in front of him or a child darting out from the curb, he takes precisely one-fifth to two-fifths of a second longer to decide what he Is going to do about It, and meantime the accident has happened. Owing to the large number of drinkers In the population and their traditional attitude In respect to scientific teachings concerning the effects of alcohol, the law Is very lenient for drunken drivers and in deed the great majority of them get away with maiming or murder. The drunken drivers that escape accidents because the other driver or the pedestrian happens to be sober and alert, are the most prejudiced of all, for thoy assume that because they habitually drink and then drive without accident, all this stuff about alcohol retarding the reaction time la a lot of hooey. Such persons on Jury are sure to sympathize with the driver who exercised his liberty even at the price of maiming or kill ing someone. NEW YORK DAY BY DAY BY O.O.McIntyre NEW YORK, July 11. Baseball fanB have, with a twinge, been watching the de glamouring of thetr greatest idol, Babe Ruth, thla season. All experts of the game practically agree the mighty swatter Is about through. Some Indeed have beg' ged him In print to step out. They do not want him to wait for the Inevitable hoots, but make his bow while the crowd still roars. Even now the applause that greets him as he steps to the plate Is mostly sentimentality. But there Is a dog gcdnesa about Babe In the corona of eclipse. Evidently ha wants to go out with the flags flying, bands playing. He Is a sturdy old war horse and any thing may happen but the breaks are against him. While he has no great fortune, he Is comfortably fixed. His name has value If lent to many com merclal enterprlsea. I am told he Is beginning to feel the first faint tingle of frost. More and more he seeks the seclusion of his family away from the diamond. He shrinks from visiting those places In public where he was once the cyno sure of all eyes. His broad smile has become a glum smirk. Few stepped out of the limelight with more punctilio than Oeraldlne Parrar, the singer, when she felt she had given her public her best. she vanished from the headlines al most overnight. Her r".-offlc value was. and la. potential. Only a few Intimates see her and when she dmea n pubtle It la at some obscure restau rant. No one has ever takfn her place with American girlhood. t once saw an idol straighten up In topple and hold his pedestal at least for the evening. He waa a slip ping movie atar who came on late at a benefit. The crowd was tired, rest less, disrespectful and tossed him a ulcy raspberry. He flinched as though lashed with a whip, stepped to the stage edge with arma extended and In a quavering voice nieAded: You convince me I'm washed up. But let me hang out here long enough to dry." And he finished to a tumult.

THAT 00 HIKE Frequently we see statistics of the frightful havoc wrought by automo bile trafflo and pleas to drivers to obey the law and the rules of the road and to be careful. Since the law Is so lenient In Interpreting drunken driving, and since so many people like a. little drink themselves, the automobile will doubtless long remain our most deadly weapon. In stead of urging drivers to be careful we should beg them to be sober. Or If that seems too much like Inter ference with their personal liberty, then put it this way: No one Is quite fit to take the responsibility of driv ing within an hour or two after i drink or two. Many who do like f drink have an excellent rule:. Don't drink If you have to drive home, or don't drive If you've had drink. QUESTIONS AND ANSvTERS Growing Hair.
