JANUARY 21,1899.
Tough on the Railroads. At the meeting of the city council Monday night Councilman Davis introduced a resolution compelling the Vamlalia railroad to place rtagmen at the intersections of that road and the Darlington pike, east Main street' Wabash a venue, Jefferson street and -Indiana avenue, and another resolution requiring a like duty from the Bi*i Four railroad at Wabash street. Grant avenue. Walnut, Washington, Green, Water, Film, Plum, Mill and Hocuni
Btrei-ts. Should this resolution finally pass ami become a law, of which there is scarcely a likelihood, it would cost these roads thousands of liolhirs annually. The trouble lays perhaps in the fact that these roads have everlooked the customary courtises extended to certain individuals at this season of the year and when the attention of the ageuts are called to it no doubt ti great wrong will be righted and the above resolution pigon-holed.

HOT WATER STREET LAMPS.
The Tiling In Applied Science In lionAon. There have been rumors that the latest thing In applied science was to be street lamps for London that should supply the weary pedestrian with tea, coffee, cocoa and hot water on the penuy-in-th»-Blot system. The rumors were true, and the new hot water lamp is an established fact, as anyone who chooses to make a journey to Queen's buildings, South Warkbridge road, may verify. The lamp, as Bhown in our sketch, looks somewhat like an overgrown gas lamp standing on a square base, which is really a tanlc containing some fifty gallons of water.
This latter is supplied from the street main by a small pipe, which, curling through the already warmed water in I the main tank, runs up the lamp-post I and passes in a spiral of many swirls round and round three great gas flames.
The heat turns it into steam, which, confined at a pressure of thirty pounds to the square inch, becomes superheated, and, passing downwards, keeps water small tank above the

main one always boiling. From the upper tank the steam passes to the main one, which it keeps at a temperature just below boiling point, and from which the smaller boiling tank is kept supplied. A halfpenny put into the slot at the side releases a spring and enables a handle to be pulled over, whereupon the boiling water runs from a spout in any quantity up to a gallon the purchaser may require. At present only the hot water is on tap a little later compartments in the square pedestal will be filled with tablets of compressed tea, cocoa, etc. Cups will be attached to the base, and then anybody who wants a cup of tea or cocoa will put his penny in the slot, draw a compressed packet from the drawer, drop it into the cup, turn on the boiling water by means of another halfpenny, and enjoy the cup that cheers at any hour of the night or day. The idea, which is being run by a syndicate, has caught on in Queen's buildings, and when our representative visited it on
Good Friday lia'norths of hot water were very much in demand. In such a crowded neighborhood the boon is evident, and, as one lady remarked. "The lamp's all right. It gives no end of a light, and you gets yer water biling fo." her ha'penny, and don't you forget it." The children have also taken kindly to the novelty, and crowd around chuckling with delight as the water streams fronPthe tap. Even the policeman is rubbing his hands in anticipation. "When the tea and cocoa and the cups are there we shall be good customers, sir. It'll be quite a treat when we're on night duty to get to one of those lamps for a warm up and a refresher." From all this it is evident that the hot-water street lamp has arrived at the right moment.
Tlie Colonic*
Eight nations of Europe possess colonies greater than themselves in extent of territory, says the Lewlstor: Journal, and four of them—Great Britain, France, Holland and Portugal— have more Inhabitants in their outlying possessions
(than
they have at
home. As a colonizer, of course, England stands easily first, both for acquired land and for its population. Her little fragment of Europe contains less than 121,000 square miles, and lodges only 40,000,000 people, but she governs besides almost 17,000,000 square miles of good dry land—nobody could figure out how much water she controls—and makes laws for 322,000,000. France to her own 204,000 square miles and 38,500,000 citizens has added 2,505,000 square miles and 44,000,000 subjects. Germany, slightly larger and considerably more populous than France, has colonies that, including Kiao-Chau, aggregate 1,615,000 square miles and 7,500,000 people. Little Portugal holds a precarious title to 809,000 square rri'es of alien land and Industriously leaches official corruption and industrial iucompetency to more than 10,000,000 barbarians. Holland has joined 78:!.('00 square miles to her own 12,GOO and has no trouble to speak of in administering the affairs-—and property—of more than 34,000,000 thinly clad Orientals, ''w

PORTUGAL'S QUEEN.
HELPS TO RULE ONE OF THE LEAST PROGRESSIVE NATIONS IN EUROPE.
61j® Is Very Much in Lo« With Her Husband and Studied Medicine to Cure Hi« Ills—Has Kstabllaliad a Free Clinic in
Lisbon for the Benefit of Poor Children. Queen Amelie of Portugal is an advanced woman, though she is Queen of one of the least progressive nations in Europe, and a daughter ot the conservative house ol' Bourbc®. When this gay and pretty princess, *ho had been brought up in England, married blonde and good-natured King Carlos I pf Portugal she did what few royal ladies do—she fell in love with her husband. No humble Darby and Joan ever lived in more peaceful conjugal content than these two young royaltlee. Not only does Queen Amelle think her husband the best of men, but she has been most proud of his blonde but rather chubby beauty, and great has been her grief over his yearly inorease in weight. Some time ago King Carlos' figure went the way common t^i most unfortunately stout men, and though he has borne the loss with princely good nature, to
Queen Amelie it was a deep source of distress. After traveling about with him to many spas and cures for obesity and seeing no cutting down of the royal waist measure, this plucky woman set to work to achieve a sufficient knowledge of medicine to enable her to conquer her husband's one weakness.
For five years the Queen has studied medicine under the ablest, physicians in Portugal, and at length took her degree of M. D. after passing the most rigorous examinations. Since her debut as a full-fledged doctor of medicine she has actually been able to do more for her husband's health than any of the great specialists to whom he has resorted.

OF PORTtriiAL.
But this good lady does not apply her scientific knowledge to selfish purposes alone. She has established in Lisbon a free clinic, where poor children of the city receive treatment, often at the Queen's own hands, and thus, by her noble sympathy and tender regard for the people, she has gained a unique' position as a sort of nurse, mother and friend, a? well as a sovereign.
A Cooking' Thermometer. A cooking thermometer is one of the blessings of the modern household. Every housekeeper knows that temperature is the secret of successful cooking, and these useful little articles keep strict account of what the oven is doing. The exact temperature at which different food preparations should be cooked is being taught by the new methods, and the woman wjo trusts to intuition is or ought to be shelved. Intuition is a good thing, a safe thing to follow in the matter of choosing friends, and, perhaps, in a few other cases, but not in cookiug. Trust nothing but actual hard tacts and the results will reward you. The cooking thermometer brings success not only with bread, but with cake and pastry. Meat cannot receive much injury from its absence, since a degree more or less in cooking is hardly noticed.
Women Gnides in Derliii. Berlin has now women guides for the city. They are partly elderly, partly middle-aged ladies, with a certain amount of knowledge of the world, some acquaintance with languages and an assured and amiable demeanor, to whose care lone female travelers or the lady traveling parties recently imported from Scandinavia and America intrusts themselves. Most of these resolute persons are Russians or Austrians. They also do shopping and other business for people living out of town.—London Globe.

Its cover is appropriately embroidered with graceful sprays of flax blossoms, on wash art linen, and encloses leaves sufficient to bear record of every piece of linen, I Its size, quality and age.
To Tighten Canc-llottomcil Chairs.
The cane bottoms of chairs can be made tight by supporting the chair and moistening the seat thoroughly by washing it off with a "sponge with hot water, so that the canework becomes completely soaked. Then place the chair in a strong draught of dry air, and allow it to dry thoroughly.
