A fact of some interest in railroad
construction is the great diversity in
the number of ties used to the mile on
different lines, as well as in the size
and quality of timber. Thus, accord
ing to the construction details of the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
railway, the number of ties used on
that line is $500 to the mile, three
quarters Of these being chestnut and
one-quarter oak, while some roads use
1000 only, or $500 to the mile. More
than 60 per cent Of the ties are cut
feet long, II per cent feet and the
rest S1a feet long; the nine foot ties are
used chiefly by the southern and gulf
group Of railroads, where pine timber
is very abundant and cheap. The New
England roads have their ties cut from
five to six inches in thickness, while
the southern roads seem to prefer sew
en- inch ties; the width Of the ties like
wise varies from five to six inches in
New England to eight inches in the
central northern and the southern
roads.-New York Sun.

In Cold weather.

"The golden rule for health in cold
weather is to keep the estremities
warm" said the family physician the
other day, and be proceeded to tell how
this may be done to the best advantage.
The first and most important rule
for the carrying out of this idea is
never TO be tightly shod.
Boots or shoes that fit closely pre-
vent The free circulation of the blood
by pressure; but when, on the contrary,
they do not embrace the foot too firmly
the space left between the shoe and
the stocking has good supply Of warm
air.
The second rule is never to sit in
damp shoes. 1t is often supposed that
unless shoes are positively wet it is
unnecessary to change them while the
feet are at rest. This is a great fall
lacy, y,for when the least dampness is alb
sorbed into the sole, in its evaporation
it absorbs the heat from the foot and
thus perspiration is dangerously check-
ed,
This can be easily proved by trying
the experiment Of neglecting the rule.
The feet will be found cold and damp
after a few minutes, although on TAX
ing off the shoe and examining it, it
will appear to be quite dry.

A correspondent in the Baltimore
News, in reply to qaestion of another
correspond ent regarding the health of
the Eastern Shore says. Certain sections
of the Eastern Shore have been long
noted for healthfulness, and the United
State census reports of 1890 state that
the heallhiest area in the entire country
has as it's centre the village of Royal
Oak, in Talbot county. Many people
who have been entirely cured by re-
naming for some time in places on the
bay shoIe, where the surrounding
country was dry. aud no marshy, swan
py land was near. Care should be TAX
en- by invalids who contemplate going
to the Eastern Shore for their health
to select places close TO tide water, and
those points which are almost sur-
rounded by water are the best, payticu-
larly if they aIe far removed from mar
shes and swamps. The section of the
peninsula north of the Choptank river
is the best fitted for invalids, and the
small islands and necks along the bay
shore are superior as he4 lth resorts to
all other places. While many people
afflicted with hay fever and asthma
have been cured or greatly relieved by
a sojourn there the reverse has been the
case with others and nothing but a
practical test will answer the question.
