on them, however, they show many of

Take your own circle, for illustrator
eff you are old enough to remember
the parents of any of your friends or
rela you will notice that as they
in turn grow old the family likenesses
come out. There are of course, some
people who have the general features
and appearances of their parents, and
in many cases of both father and moth

and that most likely of the father, in
their youth and through their life.
There are others, though, who had none
of the marked family likenesses until
they reached an advanced age. By this

persons have shown in their own faces
none of the family lilenesses until they
reached very advanced ages, and it

NORTHERN OF NEW JERSEY.
Tho Controlling Interest Has Deen Bought By
the Erie Railroad Company.


The mystery attending the sale OF the control
ling interest in the Northern Railroad Of New
Jersey by President ]. Hull Browning to q syn
dictate was solved yesterday with the announce
ment by George W. Young. President Of the
United States Mortgage and Trust Company.
that the purchase had been made by his COM
pany, and that it had been transferred to the
Erie Railroad Company.
President Thomas Of the latter company con-
frmed this statement and said:
1.-THE relations between the two companies
have long been unsatisfactory by reason of the
character OF tho operating contract and con-
ficting interests in the control. This to quite
an extent has prevented such improvement of
the property and attention to the wants of its
patrons as would tend to stimulate its business.
1t is the intention Of the Erie Company TO at
once make such improvements in train service
as will be of ben eft 10 the communities along
its line, among them being the shortening Of the
running time of several OF the important COM
muter trains. The permanent control of tho
road by the Erie Company is an assurance to the
people upon its line OF an interest in its affairs
tofore to undertake"
The Northern Railroad Company OF New Jer-
sey owns a line from Bergen. y. j., to Sparkill
IN this State, twenty-one miles, and leases q
road from the lRst-namcd place to Nyack. five
miles. 1t has been operated by the Erie for 68l5
per cent OF Its gross earnings.
