Another mistake, recorded by the Dallas News, was the failure of Dr. Cook to look at the tongue of the Pole when he took its temperature. The question, What lies around the North Po should be, in the opinion of the ew York World, changed to, ** Who lies about it?” An excellent suggestion is of- fered by the Pittsburgh Gazette-Times, when this paper advises that judgment as to Peary’s claims be suspended until we know how many barrels of gumdrops he had with him." The Chicago Tribune has the audacity to say, ‘ Surely there can’t be two North Poles!"* The deduction is made by the Baltimore Sun that too many stars- and-stripe ailers spoil the broth.

I CHICAGO a chauffeur was recently fined for k: ng his auto- mobile “ chug-chugging " for an hour while waiting on a pub- lie street. ‘The excuse of the chauffeur was that he was wait- ing for a woman to get her pocketbook. The judge explains his position as follows: ** Woman takes too in dressing and primping. She will take half an hour to adjust three hairpins, ‘I'll be ready in five minutes,’ is her usual grecting to her escort. She will then go upstairs and take an hour fixing herself up, You might have known that and stopped your engine. Women should be made to dress by the clock, the same as a man works. They should run on schedule time.”* In this decision J fully concurs, but will the Chicago jurist please tell how to enforce a decision to make women dress by the clock? much tim BROUGHT You!" comichooks,
