everlastingly finding fault. It's weary
some. They become so in the habit of it
that 1t becomes second nature. They
don't realize how much more pleasant
life would be for themselves and those
about them if they would quit scolding
and complaining.

Suppose a man takes a sack of
wheat and an ordinary checker board
and sits down, just for want of some
thing better to do, and undertakes to
put grain of wheat on the first
square, two on the second, four on
the third, etc., how many grains would
he use before all the sixty-four squares
were filled? 1t does not seem possible,
but mathematician has figured it out
at 9,223, 37l ,9S6, 652, bushels, allowing
one million grains to a bushel, or as
much wheat as the United States would
produce in is, 446 years.

close the opening. Drs. Yuill and
Sullivan then came to Yale and re-
moved tumor from Miss Mary La
valle's neck. Both patients are getting
along nicely.
Parlor car No. SO on the f. & p. NJ.
railway attracted considerable atten-
ton while in Port Huron on Monday.
A feature of this car, which is an in
novation on Michigan railroads, the
Flint q Pere Marquette being the first
to inaugurate it, Is the application of
electricity in lighting the car. This is
the first car to be provided with CON-
plete electric lighting system, and it
works to perfection. Gould's system
is that put into operation on this car.
The dynamo is under the body of the
car and belt connects it with the axle
from which the power is generated to
operate the dynamo. In addition to
the dynamo there is storage battery
which supplies the electricity for light
ing when the car is standing on the
track. There are AZ lights on the car
of IL candle power each, six lights be-
ing grouped by electroliers and MAX
ing the car as light as day in every
portion. The storage battery, which
is also supplied by the dynamo, con-
tains ten hours supply of electricity.
One convenience aside from the inn
mense superiority of the light as COM
pared with the old methods, is its
cheapness, as the light costs compare
lively nothing after the first expendi-
ture for the plant, and unpleasant
odors and escaping oil so frequently
experienced on railway coaches is done
away with under the electric SYSTEM
