Memphis Department..

She Is a Recognized Member of the
Memphis Department.
Mary is only a yaller dog, but, like
many another heroine who has not a
fine coat to her back, she has many
sterling qualities of head and heart.
Mary belongs to Capt. Roga's fire squad
that is stationed on Poplar street, Mem
phis, Tenn. Mary has been in the fire
service for over three years, during
which time she has attended every fire
in Memphis. When the fire gong rings
Mary knows it means a run, and she sta
tions herself under the wagon. She
can climb a ladder as well as any fire
man and she has had some thrilling ex-
periences in her day. Mary comes by
her fre-attending instincts naturally.
She is the daughter of Fannie, who for

Here Described.
There arc many boys who have pi-
geons, but every boy who owns them
may not have a good cote. Mere boxes
with holes in them answer practical
Purpo SEES very well, but they are not
nearly so nice in appearance as the
house-shaped cote with pitched roof
and landings under the windows.
The illustration shows one that can
readily be made by anyone who can
drive nail and push handsaw.
Obtain from grocery store two large
soap boxes, and carefully break them
up, taking care not to split any of the
boards. Make a front and back for the
cote of corresponding size, about "a
inches wide, 20 inches high at the
sides, and 30 inches high in the center
10 top of peak. 1t will take three or
four boards for each of these; TO hold
them together, nail strips, or battens,
across the inside. Then make bottom
board and the two sides; the latter
should be 20 inches high and 10 inches
wide.
Next, with a key-hole saw, cut the
holes in the front for the pigeons TO go
in and out, and then fasten the sides
and back 70 the bottom. Arrange three
shelves, one on the line formed by the
bottom of each tier of holes: fasteD on
the front and lastly the roof.

Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfeld, Mo-,
writes: ''For six years 1 have been a
sufferer from scrofulous affection OF
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, d. c.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and st. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After six
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re-
moval of the gland. Atthis critical mo-
ment friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, be-
gan its use. Before l had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had l only used your SIS. long ago.
l would have escaped years of misery
and saved over SI5o."
This experience is like that of all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root of
the disease and forces it out permas
nently.

Something to Depend on.

Mr.. James Jones, Of the drug
firm of Jones & Son, Cowden, ILL.,,
in speaking of DR.. Kings New
Discovery, says that last winter
his wife was attacked with la
grippe, and her case grew so SER
ious that physicians at Cowden
and Pana could do nothing for
her. 1t seemed to develop into
hasty consumption. Having DR..
Kings New Discovery in store,
and selling lots of it, he took a
bottle home, and to the surprise
of all she began to get better from
first dose, and half dozen dollar
bottles cured her sound and well.

consumption, coughs and colds is

ELEVATORS CARRY MILLIONS.
More Than 10000 Passengers Each
Hour In Thirty Buildings.

An estimate of the rumoer of persons car
lied by elevators in New York business;
houses is purely matter of conjecture. One
of the MON bers of n large firm engaged in tho
manufacture OF elevators gave his estimate
that half million passengers are carried
daily in about thirty of the sky y-scraping
buildings alone. Another person connected
with tho same firm said that this estimate
should be doubled to be correct.
It is difficult TO keep n record OF the per-
sons using elevators. In the ease Of the ele-
vated railroads, surface roads and other com
mon carriers, the tickets or money collected
can be used as a means OF obtaining statistics,
but nothing of this kind Is rossible with the
elevators, which are patronized daily by
thousands OF persons who pay nothing for
the privilege
1t is estimated that in the average building
using several elevators, trips are made about
every minute and half. One large retail
store in sixth avenue has thirty-two eleva-
tors. Many OF the buildings have eight and
ten, and the number in other buildings varies
from one 10 six. Taking thirty buildings with
six elevators, each carrying six passengers per
trip, il will he seen that IN one hour $500
passengers would be carried. In five busy
hours 1850 passengers would represent the
number of persons carried in only thirty
buildings. From this it may be seen that
with thousands of elevators in use in New
York the figures are enormous. In 1885, IL was
estimated that l6 )00 persons were carried in
one day by the two elevators in the Potter
building.
In the Clearing house $50 passengers patron
ize the elevator regularly between II and l
o'clock. The New York Life building has eight
elevators in operation, and ii is reported that
each elevator carries 2uo0 passengers each day.
In the Mutual Reserve building 300 passen
gers are carried daily. The Postal Telegraph
building has prepared statistics, from which
the following figures are compiled: The total
number OF hours work done by the six pas
senger elevators in 1895 was 81 ,959 in 1885,
81, 500 ON June 25 1895, three cars took mp l21
passengers in Il trips, each trip being made
in one minute. On August g. 1885, six cars
carried up S65l passengers from Z :l5 n. m. TO
5:l5 y. m. This was at quiet season Of the
year. ON October -. 1897, the total elevator
service in this building was ninety eight hours
and a half Those elevators average 200 hours
work per month. A low estimate of the num-
ber OF passengers carried may be put at 300
passengers per hour, equal 10 $4,000 passen
gers in one month. When IL is remembered
that this represents tho service in one build
ing, II will be seen that the amount ot work
done by elevators IL vast.-N. T. Commercial
