A Distillation Trouble.
i i Prom The Wall Struct Journal<
Those who remember to fill their
automobile storage batteries know
that distilled water is a pure and
supposedly harmless substance,
wlule ordinary .surface water, in
this instance, is not. In I lie case of
the action of water on Portland ce
ment this status is reversed, how
ever. Distilled water dissolves Port
land cement, if in continued con
tact, while ordinary impure water
dot's not. a phenomenon which a
chemist can explain In other words
it looks as though it might be more
harmful to spill distilled water on
the garage floor than water out of
the automobile radiator.
The Penney Cheek.
(From The Fayetteville Observer.)
A gentleman appeared at Sam

The price was $1. The customer did
not have it with him and asked to
be trusted. Sam looked the man
over. He appeared to bo honest.
Credit was given. Sam has receiv
ed a check which he is to frame. It
is from J. C. Penney, wealthy host
of Mi Hoover in Florida.

Kegards II As Effective Means Of
Dealing With Law
breakers.
Greensboro.—The Jones act pro
viding heavier fines and longer sen
tences for persistent whiskey law
violations, was highly priased by
Judge Johnson J. Hays in opening
federal court with an address to
the grand jury.
The jurist regarding it as an ef
fective means for dealing with those
who are determined to violate the
law and he declared his willingness
to hold court every day in the year
lo try violators, if that should prove
necessary. Hr rapped defendants
and lawyers who seein always trying
lo evade the lay by having trial de
lerred and said such delay Is a
prime cause of continued violations.
Judge Haves will hardly have a
rase to come under the Jones law
it this term, since its provisions
apply only to cases arising since
March 2.
