The Color OF the waistcoat.

Life learns from private sources that
when a gentleman goes to an entertain
ment to which he has received an en-
graved invitation he should weara white
waistcoat. If the invitation is written,
he simply wears the usual black waist
coat, 1t is perhaps unnecessary to in
form our readers that the nun who ig-
nores this rule is no gentleman. Still
we hardly like to advise a hostess to
eject from her house every man whose
waistcoat is not in perfect harmony with
his invitation.
1t is not to be expected, however, that
his welcome will be as warm as if his
waistcoat were what it ought to be.
Should he be, for instance, distin-
guished author, a high church dignitary
or an eminent scientist, the hostess might
allow him to sit in the kitchen rather
than have him elected from the prem
ises.-Life.

Stories of unexpected fortunes are as

Worthless shares become valuable. as

history of Devon great consols. a work

Graham did in South Australia or a rela-

man who bored him least. as occurred
last year within our own knowledge in a
southern country. Only last week a pau
per in a poorhouse was declared heir to
100000, a sum which he probably could
not have put down accurately on slate,
but which had been earned in Australia
by relative who died intestate.-Lon-

The whole years expectation now fig

Here is story of impudence from real

The thing happened almost exactly 40

either unmarried or widow: she was
wealthy. and she lived alone
One winter evening she heard the
sound Of carriage wheels on the gravel
The door was opened. and then fol-
lowed the humping of trunks in the hall.
Then n lady's name was announced. and
her visitor entered. She came i'm run

to stay
She sat down, threw off her bonnet
and began TO rattle on about the school
When they separated for the night. the
hostess reflected that she had not even
asked her visitors name and that she re-
mcmbercd nothing at all about her. In
the morning she did as; her name, but
yet she remembered nothing mt all about
her That visitor came to stay. In fact,
she never went away again The two
ladies lived together in the greatest ami
ty till the end. And to the very end the
hostess never knew who her friend was
and could not associate her name or her
face with her old school. 80 Walter Besant

Electric Heating.

Electricity generated for heating or
for any other purpose must be produced
at the cost of the expenditure of some
other form Of energy. such as the burn
ing of coal or the force of falling water
AS the latter form of power is hardly
available for use in New York, it fol.
lows that if electric heating is to become
a commercial phase of life in that city
current will be supplied to consumers
from central stations in which coal is
burned under the boilers, precisely SINH
lar to existing plants for the supply of
light and power The conversion and
transmission of heat by this process is
not economical, and current from coal
burning stations in sufficient quantities
for heating could only DO used by the
wealthy, TO whom its convenience and
cleanliness would commend itself
1t is apparent, however, that the coal
barons" would have nearly as much to
say about the supply of fuel to such sta
tions as to individual consumers at pres
ent. although it is probable that the
mere cost of coal and labor would be
proportionately reduced by tho use Of
cheaper grades Of fuel and by central
ization. Doubtless electric heating has
great future, but at present it seems
to be principally available in localities
where water power can be utilized in
the prime movers. Western

The Matchmaking Power.

This is what Aldace F. Walker, chair
man of the joint committee of the Trunk
Line and Central Traffic associations.
says about railroad rates in The Railway
Age and Northwestern Railroader: 1.-THE
fact is-and it is so often overlooked that
it must be stated strongly-the ratemak-
ing power of a railway company is its
highest corporate function. 1t is char
ter power. Its control rests ultimately
in the state. In acts of incorporation
this power is universally conferred upon
the boards Of directors-the highest seat
of corporate authority. 1t should have
been treated with seriousness and as rep
resenting the most important duty of the
several boards. But instead of this our
country has been treated to q carnival Of
rates--rates-rates. Hundreds of thou
