USES FOR OLD STREET CARS.

A. Boston Man Starts A Movement which
Gs Unlimited Rs TO Possibilities
While the huge traction corporation
which has gridironed the city with troll
ley wires was wondering if il would not
be the cheapest way 20 take the old carr
out by the shipload and dump them In
some place where they would not inter
fere with navigation a citizen stepped
in and bid $50 for them His first
move after getting the cars was to put
one in the back yard of friend and &c
tell the children that they might use IL
for a playhouse The children were IN
ecstasies and sat up nights TO use the
car. Other children came and peered
through the pickets of the fence, and
went home and teased for n street car.
The demand was created. and soon the
purveyor of broken down street cars did
a rushing business
Mothers found they could put then
small children inside, and shutting the
doors leave them with feeling Of So
curity. 1t was the cheapest way, too,
in many cases to provide shade. The
cars could be secured for &5 apiece, and
the first outlay was the last So cars
were dragged by horses into back yards,
and the trucks removed from under
them, and the brakes taken of. Now
that the new industry has been started
il is surprising how many uses are be-
ing found for these ancient conveyances.
At first they were thought Of only "a
