The fastest regular train in the

Reading railroad, between Phi1adel-
phia and Atlantic city. The distance
| from Camden, N. j., just across the
river from Philadelphia, to Atlantic
city is 55 ID miles, and the run between
these two points is made in 25 minutes.
Allowing for the time made in the
transfer by ferry from Philadelphia to
Camden, which is eight minutes, the
time made from the city to the seashore
is just sixty minutes. There is no re-
eular train in.the world scheduled to
make the entire run between the
terminals at a speed of less that q mile
minute. The famous ''Flying Scotch
only averages 81 1-2 miles an hour,
while its best run of 75 miles is only at
speed of 53 miles an hour. The rival
Flying Dutchman'' of the Great
Western railway makes its best II
miles at rate of 53 1-5 miles an hour,

The inGi5criminate slaughter of birds
is distinct danger 10 every COM
munity, for it dlsturbs the balances Of
nature and renders the insect world
unduly destructive. A hat piled high
with feathers means harder work and
poorer pay for the farmer. a shade
tree stripped by caterpillar5 is one Of
its re -ultS. Tne protection of birds IS
necessary along with that of fishes ana
of forest. IL may be taken for granted
that the great III iority Of the women
of Ma7sachusetts viii comp y with the
new law, and no one will ever discover
that they are less attract We in hats
with other garniture than feathers. 1t
is to the interest of the feminine world
that their tyrant fashion should some
times run against stronger ulti-
matum than its own.
