OF INTEREST TO FIREMEN.-The
following resolution was unanimously
passed by the New Jersey State Fire
mems Association at its annual session
at Long Branch, upon the question
"Can man be an active fireman and
an exempt fireman at the same time ?"
being presented to it for decision, The
question has caused much discussion
among local fremen:
ResoIved, That it is the sense Of the
State Firemen's Association that
fireman may, after he becomes exempt,
be member of an exempt Association
and also be an active membrr of fire
company, as otherwise many effective
firemen would be lost to the active fire
service.

THE BUCKwHEAT CROP, Eucour-
agement is derived from the report
hat the buckwheat crop will be large
and its quality of a standard excel
fence, this year. In the United States
the buckwheat is luxury in which
everybody INDUCES. Few American
families do without buckwheat cakes
in cold weather, which, with sausage
added, is food which increases muscu-
lar force and mental elasticity. Hence
when good buckwheat crop is repor-
ted the Winter ahead, no matter what
it rigors, will contain the inspiration
in hearty breakfast on cakes made
from this -four to enable man to do
good days work with satisfaction to
himself, while it imparts to home
that cheerfulness which is not derived
from any other hot cakes smothered
III molasses. The buckwheat cake is
national in its origin and appetising
influence. 1t tones the stomach, and
if over INDUCED in, adds a friskly
sensation to the surface of the body
needing considerable attention from
the nails of the fingers. and as the
time Apr aches for indulgence in this
griddle cake everybody is prepared to
devour it with gusto.
RAILROAD TICKETS COOP TILL
UsED.-It is said that Mr.. H, P.
Baldwin, general passenger agent of
the New Jersey Central road, was
asked the other day why it was that
the condition printed on the excursion
tickets of his road, that the return
coupon must be used within seven
days, was not enforced.
"That is only a precautionary pro-
vision" said Mr.. Baldwin. "We do
not now think it is necessary to limit
our local tickets to any particular
time, but we keep the notice there so
that should we ever wish to do SO we
could without cost. To have the limit
printed ON our tickets in such a case
would involve great expense. We
keep constantly on hand at our various
offices, the general ticket office in
cluded, anywhere from five to six mil
lion tickets. 1t would require some
time, also, to put that number Of
tickets through the press. Under the
present system, the limit could be ell
forced on twenty-four hours notice."
Mr.. Baldwin also said that tickets
were frequently taken up by conduc-
tors long after the date of sale. One
was turned in the other day to him
that had been issued over ten years
ago.
