Telephones in Bed.

One of the most ingenious applica-
lions of the telephone is the portable
form, which is known as the Portable
Hospital Telephone. It's particular use
is to enable people in sick room; in
which an infectious disease is being
.nursed, to; communicate with the peo-
pie in the rest of the house. In hos
pitals this simple adaptation of the tel
ephone to the requirements Of the sit
uation will be found invaluable; but an
even greater field for its utility will
be the private house. The irksomeness
of having some Of the infectious dis
eases IN a mild form is multiplied ten
fold by the enforced seclusion of the
patient, who is suddenly cut off from
intercourse with the rest of the fam
lily. Now, by the mere addition of this
little instrument to the furniture of the
apartment, it is possible for sick per-
son to keep up conversation with
any member of the rest of the family,
and in this way the tedium, which is
inseparable from the compulsory iso-
lation. may be relieved Furthermore,
the nurse will by it's means be saved a
good many journeys, even in non-in-
fictitious cases, for she can ask for
things to be brought to her at odd
times, which, in the ordinary course,
she would have to go for, or at least
ring a bell, and have someone come to
the door to ask what she required.

Gull Out Breeding Hogs.

practice, says 4, T. Mason, in a con-
temporary: Wa think that at least
{ shoc:l,aA ssihooic:,A be culled and if half.
could be culled It would Be better. we
have, known breeders who have se1d
every male in the herd for breeding
purposes, even where they got as low
as 81 or SIS head for them. This is
mistake. 1t is not only detriment
to the business. but necessarily lowers
the standard. The quality of pigs sold
for breeding purposes should be up to
a good standard, and they should be
sold at a profit above what the pig
would be worth for the pork barrel.
All pigs sold for breeding purposes
should have excellent bone, reasonably
we'll marked, free from swirls, and
have good, breedy appearance. They
should not only possess good action,
but should be gentle and of kind dis.
position.

Florida's New Railroad Law. 4

p =. ElOr10a,S new railroad Law. Ss5s|z&
;7Florida's new law for the regulation
of railroads is attracting much .atten-
ton, and there are, many men who as
sert it the most important legislation
adopted by any state this year. A COM
mission is created which must consist
of a lawyer, farmer and railroad
man: These have powers greater
than any other state railway commits
sion. It has powers to fix rates, order
the construction of passenger stations,
and has authority to regulate railway
schedules and say when train must
arrive and depart from given point.
Every transaction made by the rail-
roads in the course of their business
must be reported to the commission,
which shall have the right to examine
the books at any time, The effect OF
the law is to practically make the COM
mission assume management of the
railroads. An unusual feature is that
there has been no talk of the law s be
Ing unconstitutional. Lawyers are
practically agreed that it will stand any
test in the courts, as it was drawn with
the greatest possible care by men we'll
acquainted with the intricacies of con-
stltuticnal law, both state and federal.

The Se1f-Tacking Yacht.

Mr.. Herbert Consterdine, the famous
English engineer, has been exhibiting
a very clever invention which does
away with manual aid in the tacking
and steering of model and workaday
yachts. The idea is worked on a mo-
del cutter yacht, which measures over
all about nine feet. Hitherto with
such yacht it has only been possible
to run before the wind or set the boat
on a single tack, which will carry her.
in a straight line from one side of a
lake to the other. But with Mr.. Con-
sterdine's mechanism 1t is now possible
as has been demonstrated to the satis-
faction of experts, to set yacht off
from lee shore and make her reach
the windward side by automatically
tacking against the wind. The prin-
ciple of Mr.. Consterdine's invention is
such that the beating to windward may
be continued indefinitely, Of course
given a continuous wind and sutfi-
