Tired of Bossing.

■> When Mary went home to Ireland for a visit to the old farm, after a four years* course in general housework in America, she found a new baby brother. “And he was thot spoiled you couldn’t live In the same house with him,** recounted Mary to her old mistress. “Such a raisin* as he had had! I towld me mother ’twas different altogether from the bringln’ up of us older children. *Twas do this, an’ we done it—or get a whippin*. But with the little wan how—if she says to him ‘do this,’ he says, ‘No, I don’t want to,’ an’ never a budge does he make. But my mother was not set back by my scoldin’. She just sayed, ‘Oh, well, wait until you’ve lived as long and as much as I have, and you will get tired of bossin’, too.’’

FOUND A WAY To Be Clear of Coffee Troubles.

"Husband and myself both had the coffee habit, and finally his stomach and kidneys got in such a bad condition that he was compelled to give up a good position that be bad held for years.' He was too sick to work. His skin was yellow, and there didn’t seem to be an organ in his body that was not affected. "I told him I felt sure his sickness was dye to coffee and after some discussion he decided to give it up. "It was a struggle, because of the powerful habit. One day we heard about Postum and concluded to try it and then it was easy to leave off coffee. "His fearful headaches grew less frequent, his complexion began to clear, kidneys grew better until at last he was a new man altogether, as a result of leaving off eoffee and taking up Postum. Then I began to drink it too. "Although I was never as bad off as my husband, I was always very nervous and never at any time very strong, only weighing 95 lbs. before 1 began to use Postum. Now I weigh 115 lbs. and can do ae much work as anyone my size, I, think." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Write for booklet, “The Hoad to WellviUs." Postum comes in two forms. Regular Postum (must be boiled.) Instant Postum doesn’t require boiling, but is prepared Instantly by stirring a level teaspoonful in an ordinary cup of hot water, which makes it right for most persona A big cup requires more and some people who like strong things put In a heaping spoonful and temper it with a large supply of cream. Experiment until you know the amount that pleases your palate and have It served that way in the future.’ "There's a Reason" for Postum,

SEE YEARS OF SERVICE

LOCOMOTIVES REFLECT CREDIT ON THEIR BUILDERS. One of English Make Has Traveled 2,000,000 Miles tn Twenty Year*— Long Life of Famous "Lord of the Isles."

One of the big engines of the London & Northwestern Railroad com-

erage and has accomplished its task within a period of 20 years. Quite how long a well built locomotive will last in running order Is hardly known, says an exchange. Six years ago the famous Lord of the Isles was “scrapped” at Swindon. She was one of the famous Great Western broad gauge engines and was built In 1842. She was In perfect running order up to the end of her long life of more than 60 years. A carriage, if well used, has a very long life.' In the Museum of Coaches at Lisbon is a coach In which King Edward drove during his visit to Lisbon ten or twelve years ago. The coach was built in 1821. Ex-President Roosevelt owns and uses a phaeton which was made to his grandfather’s order at least 70 years ago. It is very comfortable and as good almost as the day It was built Only last year the steamship Seal left Bideford for Durban, a'voyage of 6,000 miles. The Seal was built at Southampton in 1816 and in 1823 was driven from her moorings at Poole in a fearful gale and found -in a turnip field.

Steamships seldom last more than 40 years. Of those built between 1815 and 1835 there is not, we believe, a single one afloat.. The life of the modern steel ship is much shorter than that of her wooden predecessors. As for warships, they are usually scrapped at the age of 20. Of all machines made by man none can compare for long life with the dock. The life of a clock is as much longer than that of any other machinery as the life of a man is. longer than that of a dog.

Tortured Doo a Suicide.

With a wildcat on her back, ripping her neck, and weakened by the lofts of blood, a big doe killed herself and the cat near Clearfield, Pa., the other day when she ran In front of a fast moving freight train and stood on the track -quietly awaiting death and relief from her tormentor. The big doe was seen by the trainmen as she swam Moose creek and crossed the tracks of the New York Central railroad a few miles below here. At that time the cat was not in sight After the freight train had rounded a sharp curve about a quarter of a mile from where the doe was first seen the engineer saw her emerge from the woods with a giant cat fastened to her back and neck. For an Instant the doe hesitated, and then with big bounds she dashed straight for the track and stood in front of the oncoming train. Before the heavy train could be brought to a standstill the life of the doe and her enemy had been snuffed out

Electric Locomotives.

A leading eastern railroad is to put in service on the New York terminal division ten new electric locomotives which will be the most powerful of their kind in existence, says Power. Although weighing only 100 tons, which is 15 tons less than those now in service, they 'will be more powerful, as the whole weight is carried on the drivers. Normally they will develop 1,400 horse power continuously and will be capable of developing as high as 5,000 horse power for short periods. They will exert sufficient tractive effort to haul a train weighing 1,000 tons at sixty miles an hour. One of these locomotives has already been thoroughly tested out and the remaining nine are being finished as rapidly as possible. On both divisions of this road they are now operating 130 electric trains a day and the equipment as been in operation for more than six years.

Woman Runs a "Diner.”

The woman station agent has long ceased to be a novelty. She is a permanent and valuable fixture in many Communities. Each day, however, we hear of some decided innovation. To Miss Carrie Benton of Cincinnati belongs the unique distinction of being the first woman placed in charge of a dining car in the United States. Miss Benton makes a round trip every day. She entered the employ of the dining car service in a station restaurant. After gaining a knowledge of the culinary art. Miss Benton made her first run. The innovation of placing a woman on a dining car was watched with Interest by the leading American railways. The success of the experiment was recognized from the outset—Robert D. Helnl, in Leslie's. s

MADE MATTER OF REJOICING

First Train Over Erie Line Carried Distinguished Passengers to a Gorgeous Celebration.

The completion of the Erie was the most important event in the history of railroad building down to that time —a matter of national consequence. Recognition .of this fact was made when In May, 1851, a special train carried on a two days’ trip through the mountains and valleys of southern New York, sweet with the leaves and blossoms of early summer, President Fillmore, four members of his cabinet and other guests of national distinction.

Daniel Webster, majestic even under his heavy burden of age and illhealth, was secretary of state in Fillmore's cabinet and rode on that first through train. He made the journey in a rocking-chair lashed to a flat car, that he might lose nothing of the scenery and the sweetness of the fresh verdure. Nor was he too feeble to enjoy the great barbecue at Dunkirk, where oxen and sheep were roasted whole, pork and beans were cooked in vessels holding fifty gallons each, bread was baked in loaves ten feet longhand two feet thick, so heavy that two men staggered under thek burden, and the whole was served at a table 300 feet long, spread under a specially built shed aflng . Railroad street from Deer to Lion street It was a great day for New York state and the nation, aLd it was a great day also for President Fillmore, who found the pork and beans especially to his taste. —Wells Fargo Messenger.

DANGERS SHOWN BY PICTURES

Railroad Hae Photographs Taken to Illustrate How Accidents Occur and May Be Avoided. -

A woman got off a train coming up from the south; she carried a baby in one arm and a suitcase and a bundle with the other. It was in the night and the platform was dark. As she started for the station lights, some distance from the platform, she tripped over one of the truck tongues and fell, seriously injuring both herself and the child she was carrying. For the purpose of showing trainmen and the general public the dangers that lie in thoughtlessness the management of the Frisco ros-d had a number of photographs made exhibiting the dangers of this character as they occur almost every day. The brakeman who plays with death while adjusting a coupling is given to see the foolishness of his actions. The switchman who swings himself through a string of cars While they are in motion is pictured. The carelessly "kicked’’ car that goes rolling down over a grade crossing is shown about to smash an automobile with three or four persons in it. The brakeman who insists on standing between the bumpers of two cars while adjusting the couplings is shown just how easily death may come to him.— Kansas City Star.

TO END BAGGAGE SMASHING

Simple but Effective Device, It Is Be lleved, Will Save Trunks From Demolition.

Baggage smashing will soon become one of the lost arts if the simple and effective device shown in the accompanying illustration is put into general use. The cushion, or mat, upon which the trunk descends in unloading, recently was adopted by the Cumberland Valley railroad and that com-

pany reports that it has proved very efficacious. The photograph shows it in use at one of their stationb. The cushion is composed of four strips of hardwood to'which are 1%inch clout nails, driven through the stripe of wood and clinched to the hose by means of an iron rod inserted while the nails are being driven. The cushions are 22 M inches wide by 4 feet 4 Inches long.—Popular Mechanics.

Cost of Railroad Construction.

There is some agitation concerning the building, by the United States government, of two main lines of railroad through Alaska. The government engineers estimate that the roads can be built for >35,000 per mile, even with the difficulties that are to be encountered In that country. When the government builds it is not given to cheap construction, therefore it is fair to assume that the engineers, who are the best the country affords, have not estimated on poor and cheap work- If the government can build a road up there In the arctic regions, under the enormous difficulties that such construction would entail, for 135,000 pe» mile, it is certain that most of the prL vate constructed roads in the United States have cost first and last at least twice as much as they should have cost

HAD PREMONITION OF DEATH

New Jersey Man’s Fear of Coming Disaster Laughed at by Comrades, But It Was Verified.

John Hueselmans, superintendent Jf a lumber yard in .Harrison, N. J., itarted home after a day of intense worry through fear of Impending disaster. His premonition caused several of the workmen to deride him. John Bissell of Newark led in the scoffing. As Hueselmans was passing a 40-!oot-high pile of heavy timbers Bissell, who*was at work on top, uttered a warning cry and leaped to the ground. Is he did so the great bulk of lumber swayed and toppled over. Hueselmans was buried beneath the mass and was Instantly killed. Bissell, by his leap, avoided the crumbling pile and landed lust beyond the timbers. The fall, however, resulted in his receiving numerous fractures and he was removed In a critical condition to St. Michael’s hospital. ' A crowded trolley car was passing the lumber yard at the time. The passengers, many of them workmen on their way home, rushed to the spot and began moving the timbers. It was half an hour before Hueselmans* mangled body was extricated.

HOW COCA COLA REFRESHES.

The remarkable success which has attended the sale of Coca-Cola has been explained in many different ways. Some have attributed it to “good advertising;’’ others to “efficient management,*’ others, to its “delicious flavor” and still others to the fact that it was the first in the field of “trade-marked” soft drinks. In this connection, the opinion of a manufacturing chemist who has analyzed Coca-Cola and studied its history for many years, will prove Interesting. He attributes the popularity of-the drink in large part to its quality of refreshing both mind and body without producing . any subsequent depression. He points out the fact that the chemical composition of Coca-Cola is practically identical with that of coffee and tea (with sugar added) the only material difference being the absence of tannic acid from Coca-Cola. He points to the laboratory experiments of Dr. Hollingworth of Columbia Uaiversity and of Dr. H. C. Wood, Jr. of Philadelphia which prove conclusively that the caf-feine-con taining beverages (coffee, tea, Coca-Cola, etc.) relieve mental and muscular fatigue by rendering the nerves and muscles more responsive to the will, thus diminishing the resistance produced by fatigue. These experiments also demonstrate the fact that the caffeine group or beverages differ from the stimulants. in that the use of the latter is followed by a period of depression which calls for more stimulation, thus resulting in the formation of a “habit”—-Adv.

Chinese Women Already Masterful. I.ady Blake, in the Nineteenth Century, tells that the women of China have not been so backward in the imitation of men as some of our suffrage propagandists would have us believe. The Chinese women, says the author, have often distinguished themselves in government, in literature and even in war, and have “frequently displayed great military prowess." There were two women generals and two regiments of women in the Taiptn rebellion, and in the sixth century a woman was made a duchess for her valor against aborigines. Chinese women appear openly in the law courts, and they have so little knowledge of the veil as to suppose that a white woman who wean one must be suffering from some skin complaint.— Argonaut
