NlllC UlltlO lldo U6tu llUtIdl ItuuC-
tion in rates for one subscriber on a line,
a new feature Of party lines has been in
trOduced which still further lessons the
cost. 1t has been ascertained by records
that residence phones are not used more
than ten times a day on an average, and
the inconvenience OccasiOned by several
desiring to use line at the same time is
not as serious as some might suppose.
The instruments used on the line are
equipped with bridging bells that ring
the central only. Subscribers will there
fore be unable to ring each other, and all
calls and connections will have to be
made by the operator. This will Obviate
many of the annOyances and delays due
to attempts of subscribers to ring each
other without calling the central office
operator. By being a subscriber on a
party line telephone will cost either
$1S or S2lp year, according to number
OF connections. Undoubtedly many will
take advantage of these low rates and
cast about among their neighbOrs to make
up party line. The Central Union Tel
ephOne Co. is pushing this kind Of sef-
vice in the various exchanges throughout
the state, and it is meeting with cOnsid-
cradle favor.
Upon an examination it was found
that persons using the toll lines did not
consume over three minutes in convers-
ing, and consequently three-minute
schedule, materially reducing rates, was
established.
The company proposes to equip the
railroad Offices and Western Union tele-
egraph office with metallic circuit outfit.
The work will probably be completed in
the next eight weeks.

Far be 1t from me, says Henry La

doubt as to the efficacy of prayer, or
to ridicule any mans belief in the re-
suits Of his own applications. Yet |
cannot help observing that those who
thus boast of miraculous interpretations
of providence for their private comfort
and convenience, brought about by the
intercesSiOn Of themselves or their
friends, are treading on very danger
Gus ground, and doing much to bring
their religion into ridicule, If not con-
tempt. Is this worthy man prepared
to guarantee that any one who prays
in the right spirit may be delivered
from sea sickness? If not, what is his

He Drew the Line ut Monkeys.

A Philadelphia young mans best
girl sent him for a Christmas a beauti-
full wooden monkey that was as large
as life and twice as nataral. With
much cunning she bribed the house
maid to attach it to the top Of the
doorway opening into his room by
means Of an elastic piece Of rubber,
so that Jocko would bounce up and
down in a life-like way at the slightest
jar. About midnight the young man
returned home, and az he reached the
door Of his room his head hit the mon
key and set it to jumping vigorously.
By the faint light from the street he
dimly saw the outline Of the beast,
and with a wild yell he rushed down
stairs and shut himself up in the par
lor, where the night was passed Oh
the sofa. In the morning he gained
sufficient courage to face the mystery,
but when he saw what it was that had
frightened him he swore a blue streak
and his "best girl' is now minus her
yellow jacket and peacock feather
in other words, the engagement is
broken.-Boston Herald.

No Trolleys in England.

A suggestive advertisement appear
cd in an American paper n few days
ago, in which an electrical engineer
vas offered a position in England to
superintend the building of a subur-
ban trolley system. The idea of send
ing to America for an ordinary cleo
trical engineer when England is sup
posed to be already too well supplied
with that commodity seemed such an
anomaly that further inquiries Were
made, and it transpired that there is
not Il single electric trolley railway
engineer in the whole Of England. AL
though our cousins across the water
are never in a hurry to adopt new fan
lied ideas, not a few Americans think
they have done well TO hitherto re-
fuse to have the trolley at any price,
and there is something amusing III the
idea of England starting its first troll
ley road just when America is think
ing of s~uperseding the trolley by Il
better system.

Warming Milk in Winter,

The success in making winter butter
with a Junt butter favor by means of
a bacillus is very suggestive. 1t is pos.
sible that such bacillus always exists
in milk made from wholesome feed,
though it may be more abundant when
cow are fed on fresh grass in sum-
mer. The breath Of a cow at pasture
at that season is pleasantly fragrant,
and this fact has been recognized by
those close observers. the poets.
Warming the milk in winter to a tenn
perature Of 12O degrees to 100 degrees
makes the cream rise more quickly,
churn more easily, and improves the
quality of the butter. If the milk Is
heated too much the butter will be soft
as it is in summer, and the quality will
also be impaired.

red-faced morsels Of humanity; and
the man who advances this explana-
ton Of the knock-kleed woman main
tains that 1t is her devotion to ole or
another object which has caused this
grave defect.
The Cure is Of course, In exercising
the knee until it assumes its proper
proportions and its proper relation to
the leg. Walking, bicycling riding,
swimming, or any other exercise which
develops the legs will help to correct
the defect. Until such time as it is
corrected the woman who loves grace
will wear garments displaying less
freely her i~mperfections.

TO HANDLE A REVOLVER.
some Good Points Given to Women
by an Expert in Pistol Practice.

some Good Points Given to Women
by an Expert in Pistol Practice.
Ability to handle a revolver fearlessly
yet safely is possessed by very few
men. Women are almost entirely ig-
norant, and for their benefit the New
York Press recently obtained from a
noted pistol shot some hints which will
enable a woman to defend herself I'M
derstandingly should occasion arise.
According to this authority the body
must be balanced equally on each foot
(even if your burglar escapes mean
while) slightly facing the target and
the arm held perfectly straight out.
The arm should never be bent. The
hand grasps the revolver high on the
butt, with the thumb well around to
the inside and straight, and the trigger
finger entirely free. This throws the
work of holding the revolver wholly on
the outer fingers. The object of this
position Of the hand is to get the barrel
in exact line with the arm when ex-
tended, thus bringing the target, the
position also diminishes the effect OF
trembling and wabbling Of the arm.
The weapon being properly aimed, 1t
should be held there, and the trigger
very gently and steadily pressed. The
mind should forget the possibility of
an explosion, and the whole attention
| devoted to holding the sights Of the re-
volver in exactly the proper position

The average woman's knees show a
tendency to converge to a point at the
knees. and her bicycle suit has shown
it. The reason for this sad aff1iction
is not plain, says the New York
World. Perhaps it arises from the
fact that the average woman has
been ui.til recvently more occupied in
amounting her face with complexion
lotions than In developing her body.
She has preferred riding to walking
and has chosen staying in the house
rather than trampirg. Her knees have
n eantime been preparing a quiet little
revenge for their e, forced jlH.ctivity.
Another explanation Of the knock
kneed tendency Of women is advanced
by some r~nregererate and irreligious
being, who says that women have
knelt often and too long. They have
gone to church often and have knnlt
for lopg periods; they have knelt by
