The talk OF the big buying of Metropoli-
tan and Brooklyn Rapid Transit for the
same important interest is everywhere in
the Street. It is now said that the an
nouneement of Metropolitan people join
ing the Brooklyn Rapid Transit directory
IS likely to be made in few days It was
stated this moTnig that some Of the insid-
ers had received assurances in which they
had faith, that the Ford Franchise Tax law
viii be declared Unconstitutional. Another
reason for buliishness regarding Brooklyn
Rapid Transit especially was the earnings
statement for October given out yesteT-
day The net earnings for the month
showed an increase of S65, 800. The in
crease from July l was sos. S12. This state
ment is eminently satisfactory. Moreover.
1t confirms the semi official announcement
that monthly statements of net earnings
viii be made, which is also a buIiish argu-
ment of much Importance. One has the
right TO infer that the business of the COM
pany has nothing to hide All of these
securities were buoyant this morning.

warding on Danger.

There is at least one lady In Ken
wood who believes thoroughly in the
efficacy of prayer. About a year ago
her husband engaged in a business
venture that looked rather uncertain.
But his wife had strong faith that 1t
would turn out well. GO ahead, John" "
she said, land let us put our trust
in the Lord. l pray every night that
we may have no reason to regret the
risk we are taking" The affair SEEM
ed to turn out pretty well right from
the start. Handsome dividends were
paid all through the summer and dur
ing the winter and great joy was in
the home of this man and the sharer
of his fortunes. But there came a
turn about a month ago. The busi-
ness ceased to pay, and since then the
losses have been increasing every day.
Nothing was said about it at the fire.
side around which so much happiness
had centered during the past year
until the other day. when it was sug-
gested by the husband that 1t would
be well to cut down expenses. Ques-
tions followed, as a matter Of course,
and then it had to be confessed that
the business was not going WELL

rwn useless Rnttnns on Men,s Coats.

An American, SO the story goes, was
once questioning Chinauan as to the
reason for many Of the customs which
seemed absurd to us. At length, af
ter long endurance, the Chinaman re-
piled:
"And now, my dear sir, 1 would
like to ask you n question which has
puzzled me greatly. VIII you kindly
tell me why Americans and Europeans
wear two useless buttons on the backs
of their coats?"
Unable to answer, the American
raised the question at home. Inyesti'
gators set to work, and what do you
think they discovered? Long ago.
when every gentleman wore sword
and had to hang it from a belt these
two buttons held the belt to the coat
Years passed; men became more civ
ilized and left the sword to soldiers
use; the belt went out of fashion
for men are as particular about fash

A possible new ally in the campaign

recently by the Rev. II. II. Hughes, of
Norwich Corners, N. Y. He is con-
nected with q church located in a dis
tlnctively rural neighborhood, where
only a few houses can be seen from

has shown him that bad roads are

Where Crelonen Are Bred.


For the world west of the Mississippi
the Rocky Mountains are the points Of
origin not only of the rivers and water
flows, but of the condensing of the
moisture of the air, the banked SHOWS,
the subterranean currents which form
the basis of the entire watershed.
Their cold attitudes seem to shed the
waves of air which conflict with tho
warmer waves in the plains below, and
in their battles generate the cyclones
and the lesser windy terrOrs which de-
vastate the Western plains. They are

stnmns Drawn nr Wind Power.

Utilizing the wind as a stump puller
is an Oregon invention. 1t was the
idea of the farmer at the State peni.
tentiary, whose task was to clear six
acres, and with the aid of the wind he
cleared the whole tract in six weeks,
although the timber was dense
growth, the frs measuring from one
to four feet in diameter. The winds
in the quarter blew strong from the
south at this season. The farmer put
his men to work on the north side Of
the fir grove. They cut a log and
dragged it close to the north side OF
the bases Of the fir trees that were to
be felled The preparations were made
during the first day, and then the men
went home and slept while the wind
did the rest. During the night a strong
south wind blew the trees down, and
they, in falling across the logs, pulled
up the taproots. The next day the
men sawed up the fallen trees, burned
the brush, and laid their logs for an.
other lot of trees. They proceeded in
this way until the whole grove had
disappeared. Farmers Advocate.
