man who suffers i'll this way will be aweak

The Maine Central Railroad has Just
aGorted rev style of switch light
which is to take tho place of those now
IN use. The new Light is smaller than the
oid one ana is made Of steel. The pattern
Is Very much the same rs that of the
lights used on the rear end of the trains
This new light has many advantages
over the old cnc The ola square lights
nave such large lenses in them ana the
candle power is so small that the results
from them are not what the management
OF the road wish. The new lights have a
much smaller lens with greatly increased
candle power ami they can be seen very
murh further. Another feature about the
new lamps is that they are made of steel
ana there is not 50 much liability of them
being broken as there is with the old
ones which are made of tin. The old
lamps Will pc used for some time to come
but as fast as they are worn out, or bc-
come broken. they Will be replaced by the
new ones.
