This blessed winter wearies nobody •with its prolonged monotony. A'New Jersey man is experimenting raising wingless chickens. A fowl act that. It is only Just that women should receive men’s wages, and married women do. All of the new counterfeit money is In the shape of $5 and $lO bills. We Should worry. Aviators are to be put through a rigid test. Flexible and resilient tests would be better. * Another argument in favor of spring Is that it will take the baseball players off the stage. * 4 ... "‘ln God we trust,’” Bays the Toledo Blade, “is not on the new nickel.” Nor on the old one. Approximately 176,000,000 persons traveled in the London tubes last year. What proportion sat down? % The Brazilians make beautiful lace from the fiber of the bannas. Rather a delicate food stuff, though. Pittsburg has started an anti-noise crusade. ‘Lots of college town would do well to follow the example. A woman remarks: “The best husbands are the most accomplished liars.” They’ve had experience. A Kansas City parson says that the turkey trot causes divorces.. Hitting a fast trot like that always does. Sweden exported 35,000,000 pounds *of matches during the last six months. No other country is a match for that. A canon of an English church has Sitten a farce that is said to be a rker. Evidently he hit the bullseye. Spain is to have a government school of aviation. Wouldn’t it be a good idea to sentence revolutionists to it? One octogenarian in Boston says the only rule he knows for long life is this: “Keep your temper and don’t worry.” Boston papers are making a great stir over the discovery of an unkissed girl. But they have not printed her picture. Three Princeton students have opened a shop to shine shoes. Shoe shlneß are preferable to monkeyshines any time. Three Alaskan legislators have to travel 2,000 miles by dog sled to attends session. They at least, will earn their mileage. At least there isn’t much danger that any man will carry around for ‘ days the eleven-pound parcel his wife gives him to mail. Now comes an expert who says automobile riding gives a person flat feet. But that probably isn’t as annoying as flat tires. One can’t help feeling but that the aviator who flew fifty-four miles to deliver twenty-five pounds of beans didn’t know his article. Copenhagen Is possesped of a woman glazier. Probably preparing to go to London and turn over the proceeds from replacing broken windows help the cause. Paris boasts a woman with a triple personality. Still, the average American woman can change her mind much faster than that. Exports of American pianos have trebled in the last nine years. Perhaps that’s why there is always an old one in the adjoining fiat. Pupils in the Los Angeles cooking schools are required to eat their own pies. Here is an instance where pastry comes home to punißh. Now it remains to be seen if the parcel postman will give heed to the apartment building sign: “All packages must be Relived in the rear.” But twenty-seven lives were lost in Pennsylvania during the 1912 hunting season. Which leads one to wonder whether there were poor shots or few guides. 0 A New York mother paid her married daughter’s rent for ten years in advance. Taking no chances on said daughter coming back to live with her, evidently. "How to Keep Warm Without Fire,” is the caption of an article written by a physician. It is suspected that he is simply boosting business. Indiana raised 2,000,000 bushels of onions last year. If there is anything In Hetty Green’s theory, Indiana Should be a mighty healthy state. A Worcester hynotist, defendant in a divorce suit, claims that his wife ff(M “look at me,” and “biffed” him on the "nui.” Tiring to knock some sense into him. perhaps. A' - , • .. •

Charity Without Pauperism.
A great defect of many charitable schemes Is their tendency to pauperize the beneficiaries. This is over come by one of the methods adopted by .the Robert Browning settlement at Vealworth, which supplies hoots to poor children. <?The footgear is handed over in return for the payment by the parents of a small weekly “rent” until the retail price has been covered. After the final payment the boots ■till remain the property of the settlement, without whose permission they can neither be Bold nor pawned.— London Globe. 1
Boosting a Mine.
“How’s the sale of stock coming on?” inquired the first promoter. “Sold 9,000 shares this morning,” •aid the Becond promoter. “That must mean a good deal of money.” “Almost $&. Come on, and I’ll blow you to lunch.”
Honesty.
No man is so dishonest but what he considers his next door neighbor more so.—Milwaukee Sentinel.
STRENGTH Without Overloading The Qtomach. The business man, especially, needs food in the morning that will not overload the stomach, but give mental vigor foi* the day. Much depends on the start a man gets each day, as to how he may expect to accomplish the work on hand. He can’t be alert, with a heavy, frled-meat-and-potatoes breakfast requiring a lot of vital energy in digesting 1L S' A Calif, business man tried to find some food combination that would not overload the stomach in the morning, but that would product energy. He writes: "For years I was unable to find a breakfast food that had nutrition enough to sustain a business man without overloading his stomach, causing Indigestion and kindred ailments. “Being s very busy and also a very nervous man, I decided to give up breakfast altogether. But luckily I was induced to try Grape-Nuts. "Since that morning I have been a new man; can work without tiring, my head is clear and my nerves strong and quiet "I find four teaspoonfuhi of GrapeNuts with one of sugar and a small quantity of cold milk. Is delicious as the cereal part of the morning meal, and invigorates me for the day’s business.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read the little book, "The Road to Wellville,” in pkgs.

HARD TO HEAR TRAIN
WHY 80 MANY ARE KILLED ON * RAILROAD RIGHT OF WAY. i Idea That Cars Will Make Sufßglent Noise to Give Warning le Fallacious—Only Safe Thing Is to Keep Off the Track. In ther first place, “don’t walk on the railroad tracks.” Advice is gen-
forgotten by anyone who has occasion to make a footpath of the steam locomotive’s right of way. The railroad track has been called “the path of death,” and not without reason, since figures show that fully two-thirds of the deaths from railroad trains result from people walking oh the tracks. People start out bravely along - a railroad track, comfortable in the belief that there is no danger because they can always bear a railroad train. “Surely,” they say, “such a tremendous engine and its rumbling train of cars will furnish sufficient warning to enable me to step out of the way of danger long before the great locomotive itself reaches me.” And it does seem as if this was true, but it is not true. For many years experts have been making an investigation into this, and the figures show that most of all these deaths are due to the fact that people actually do not hear the trains approaching, nor do they take one-half the precautions they take in walking along a country highway, while the danger Is tenfold greater. Walking on the railroad track is an American habit, and this is solely because Americans are allowed to do so; or, in other words, the railroad officials are not as strict as they are in other countries. It is true that many railroads put up signs saying that people walking on railroad
Most of the Noise Is Directed Away From a Train at the Sides.
tracks are liable to prosecution for trespass, but the trouble is that railroad officials do not back up these notices by having their employes keep watch and arrest every person found walking along their tracks. If this had been dbne last year, at least 300 lives would have been saved, as: that number killed while walking on the tracks were not employes 9t the road.
Obviating Snowbound Trials.
It is a well known principle of snowshed construction that the roof of the shed should be built at the same angle as the mountain side so as to offer no resistance to the snow, but instead allow the great mass of deadly white to slide down the mountain side and over the roof of the shed to the other side of the track. The concrete shed is riveted into the rock of the mountain and built with such a sloping roof that It looks like a part of the mountain itself. This new kind of snowshed cost $300,000 and over 400 men were employed In building It. It is 20 feet higfy on the average and over 3,000 4,000 — feet long. The roof is ten inches thick and bo heavy that it Is supported by concrete pillars.
Third Largest Railroad Yard.
The Railway Gazette states that the ‘Tallway yard” for goods wagons at Immingham Dock, England, is the third largest in the world, having 170 miles of track. The two yards ranking ahead of it are the one at Gardenvllle, near Buffalo, which has 300 miles, and that of Altoona, with 208 miles of track. The next yard in size to Immingham is stated to he that of Mannheim, with 96 1-8 miles of track.
Figures on Capitalization.
Much Is .printed and said’of the high capitalization of railroads in the United States, but the average, in proportion to the mileage, is less than 25 per cent, of the British figures. It Is not one-half as great as the French average and a little over half of ths Italian.
erally something we remember only long enough to repeat to some one else. A few rules laid down by expert railroad men regarding walking on railroad tracks should never be
VERY CURIOUS FRYING PAN
interesting Relic'ln the Cluny Museum in Paris—lts Remarkable History. At the Cluny museum in Paris is a very interesting relic, of which this Is the history. It appears that one day, a year or so ago, the curator of the museum happened to visit a small restaurant in the suburb of Saint Denis* in which the same room served for dining room and kitchen. While waiting to be seived, the curator’s eye was caught by a fryingpan of most unusual appearance that hung upon the wall. He took it down, carefully removed some of the soot with which it was covered, and made out part of an inscription. What he found interested him so much that he bought the old pan. When it was properly cleaned, it was found to bear the arms of France and Navarre, surrounded by the chain of St. Louis and the cord of the. Order of Saint Esprit, and this inscription as well: “Here lies the magnificent prince, King Louis XIV., king of France and Navarre. Requiescat in pace.” It was the plate that had been fast* ened to the coffin of Louis XIV. When the burial vaults of the royal family In the populace in 1?93, it had been wrenched from the coffin, fitted with a handle, and turned Into a frying-pan. The relic may now be seen in the Cluny museum. The hafidle has been Removed, but three holes show where ft was attached.
ERUPTION LIKE PIMPLES
Wathena, Kan.—“My child’s scalp trouble became so bad that I was ashamed to have anyone see him. His head had a solid scab on it. He also had a terrible breaking out on his face which was gradually growing worse. The eruption was like pimples which developed into sores when he scratched, which he did almost constantly. Gaby would almost scratch himself raw. ‘1 had used several different kinds of salve, none of them helping in the least bit, when I saw the Cuticura advertisement in the paper and it made me think of the good results my sister had when she used it for her children. I had only used Cuticura Soap and Ointment about two weeks before I noticed that the sores were almost entirely gone r and it must have been a month or six weeks he" was troubled before I began the treatment He would get easy when I would put the Cuticura Ointment on him. Cuticura Soap and Ointment completely cured him and he has a clear complexion now.” (Signed) Mrs. W. H. Hughes, Dec. 31, 1911. Cuticura Soap and Ointment sold throughout the world.
