superiority of this nickel steel the fol-
lowing results of one of the tests may
be given: A steel containing four and
seven-tenths per cent. of nickel
showed an ultimate strength of thirty
per cent. and elastic limit of sixty to
seventy per cent. higher than those of
mild steel, with nearly equal ductility,
and the valuable quality added of less
liability to corrosion." The authority
who obtained these remarkable results
adds: Think for q moment of this in
connection with the erection of the
Forth bridge or Of the EiiRel tower. If
the engineers of those stupcndous
structures had had at their disposal a
metal of forty tons strc.,tL and TWEEN
ty-eight tons elastic limit instead of
thirty tons strength and seventeen tons
elastic limit in the one case, and say
twenty-five tons strength and fourteen
to sixteen tons elastic limit in the
other, how many difficulties would have
been reduced in magnitude as the
weight of materials was reduced The
Forth bridge would have become even
more light and airy and the tower
more netlike and graceful than they
are at present" And Sir Fredericl,
Abel, in his presidential address at the
Leeds meeting of the British assocfa-
ton. remarked: ut has been GhoTTn
by Riley that a particular variety Of
nickel steel presents to the engineer

WHY WOMEN ARE NOT BALD.

the Prevailing Tendency.
If the unsatisfactory statistics that
have been able to collect can be relied
on. the proportion Of badness in boys
and girls under twenty is about eighty
to seven, says Miss L. f. Andrews in
the Popular Science Monthly. As the
majority OF girls at the age under consid-

is little likelihood of deception, while
unwholcsomc hcadCear or other indi-
vidual practices can hardly. as yet, have
had time to produce any material effect
upon either sex, we may regard the diff
ference indicated by the figures as prac-
tically due to the working Of heredity
alone.
Now, there is no apparent reason why
girls should not inherit a tendency to
badness as well as boys. unless that
tendency is checked by some other fac
tor, Such factor is sexual selection;
for presume it is hardly necessary to
argue here that bald-headed woman
would not stand much chance of sur

honors. As men have always practi-
cally done the selecting" and will
probably continue to do so more and
more us the conditions of modern life
render the competition for husbands
more severe, the wOman's voice in the
matter, when she has any, being limit
ed to simple negative, it is not likely
that the state of badness to which the
human race is said to be tending will
ever affect the feminine half of it.

CITY COUNCIL OF KEmPEN.
Dutch simplicity Was Their Strong Point,
Like That of Some Other Councils.

DuhSh was iOiut,
Like That of Some Other Councils.
Kempen, town IN Holland on the
lower Rhine (the birthplace of Thomas
a Kcmpis), is famous residence OF peo-
pie with small incomes. The imagina-
ton of these Dutchmen must be as linn
tied as their incomes, judging from the
droll stories that are told of them, SAYS
Harper's Young People.
At one time a fire broke out. and
much damage was done because the en-
gines were out of repair. The council
met, and after much argument it was
voted that on the eve preceding every
fire the town officers should carefully
examine the engines, pumps, etc.
One Of the greatest profits Of the town
was the toll cXacted at the gates. The
council wished TO increase the income,
and instead of increasing the toll it
voted to double the number OF gates.
This same council also ordered the sun
dial to be taken from the courthouse
common and placed under cover, where
it would be protected from the weather

church, and that the riot act should
be read TO the offenders in no uncer-

Compartment Sleeping Cars.

Our readers are familiar with the
regular or standard sleeping cars
which the Pullman Company runs on
most of the railroads, and know how
luxuriously they are furnished. There
is nothing so good but people wish
for something better, and objections
have been made to the sleepers that
privacy was lacking, that the lavatory
accommodations were insufficient, and
that two or three persons (of the gent
Ter sex) would take possession of the
dressing room in the morning, to the
delay and annoyance of other lady
passengers. The compartment sleep
ers on the trains of the Burlington
Route from Minneapolis and st. Paul
to Chicago remove these objections
Instead of the central aisle, with open
berths on each side, the Car is divided
into ten cosy state-rooms, with doors
opening into corridor on the side of
the car. For half its length this cor.
ridor is on the left side, then crosses
to the right-five compartments being
thus situated on each side. Each com
partment contains an upper and lower
berth, arranged in the usual way, but
the attraction is that 1t constitutes a
room in itself. A handsome gas fix
i. L., hn
ing IA soft light into every nook of the
compartment. In one corner you no
tice handsome mirror, and beneath
is what looks like rosewood box set
on end. In the centre of this box is
convenient nicRel-pldted handle. Take
hold and pull-you have before you a
complete toilet outfit, bowl, faucets
for hot and cold water, etc. and turn
ing the box up again empties the bowl
of its contents. This is one of the many
comforts and conveniences that meet
you at every point. As we said before
each compartment has a door which
opens into the corridor, but they have
also doors connecting them with each
other, SO that two OF more can be made
MO suite of rooms, for family or
other large party travelling in company.
The furnishings and fittings of these
cars are as tasty aud exquisite as
money and the most skilled workman
ship can make them and the colors of
the plush and papers used in decorat
ing each compartment different. For
ladies without escort, or travelling in
charge of children, nothing more re-
tired and comfortable can be imagined
and on the Burlington Route trains
two compartments are always reserved
for ladies excluively. Next time you
go to Chicago, buy your ticket via the
Burlington, and see what these cars
are like.
