The State Department has received the
following report from Consul Fleming at
Edinburgh:
''The progressive displacement OF cotton
goods by woolens for womens wear has
become a matter Of much importance to
change. which has been going on for some
years. was accelerated last November by
the rise in the prices OF cottors, COM
pensating the rise in wOJlens. which be-
gan about a year ago. Among wholesale
merchants in these lines, there is a diff
ference Of opinion as to how far the sub
stitution will go and how long it will last,
but there is agreement that the public
taste is of cottOns.' Working women and
girls in all pursuits have ben showing
a strong preference for wo0len dresses,
apparently because they are thereby saw
ed the trouble of washing the garments or
the expense Of having them washed
In this climate wooden dresses and 9TH
er garments of wooden goods are seldom
too warm, even in summer, and the neat

consideration with the majority. whole
sale dealer in dry goods informs me that
the market for coarser and cheaper wool
ems has been greatly enlarged by this
growing demand from the working women
and that he cannot get rid of his cotton
cloths. He believes that in Scotland and

dresses has become q permanent condition

HERE'S AN AUTO-SLED.
Inventor Calls it an Auto Mo- Sled
Steam Continuance for Snow or Ice.

Steam Continuance for Snow or Ice.
Automobiles of the ordinary kind are
rather scarce in Maine, but when it
comes down to sleighing in style, the
Pine Tree staters are in a fair way of
outdoing the rest of the country this
winter. Ira Peavey of Bangor, a me-
chanic Of experience. has just completed
the model of an "auto-sled" and says that
when the thing is completed he will be
able to pillow through the deepest drift
that ever piled on Main street and trans
port passengers with dispatch.
The auto-sled will be 10 feet long, 3
feet high and feet in width, and will be
propelled by a gasoline engine of 20-horse-
power. In forcing the sled forward two
steel cylinders are used, each 10 feet
long and 26 inches in diameter Wound
around these cylinders and firmly at
tached to the outside, are spiral cams,
inches high and inches wide, with deep
| ly-conCaved surfaces and capable of tax
| ing hold of the most icy surface. The
! cylinders are attached to the engine by
means of bevel gearing and the speed can
| be easily regulated to suit the person
who guides the vehicle.
Mr.. Peavey calls his invention an "au
| to-mo-sled," and is confident that ii will
make rapid time on the snow-cOvered
highway or on ice. He has been work
lug on the steam Sieu IOE more imam nN(
years and the greatest part of this time
was spent in experimenting with the re-.
volving runners. He found that if both
the spirals were put on right-handed that
the sled would so to the right, while il
would go the other direction if the Spir
ais were left-hand. After he had mad,
one right and one left-handed. there wa,
more thinking to be done. BY puttina
the coils close together he could develoI
great power of propulsion, but could max,
but little speed. SpiralS put wider apart
gave speed without power and 10 mecr
both conditions he has constructed tw,
sets of runners. one for work on the leye
road and the other for hill-climbing.
The cylinders run fore and after win

Condition of the Poor, in his annual re-
port, Just issued, says: ''Of some 5000
cases investigated, cared for, passed up
on and closed during the year, the cause
Of distress in 1911 instances is set down
as lack of work; in 1893 instances as
sickness The other causes operating
were shiftlessness in PAS eases, intern
perance in 312, old age in 800, desertion
in 221. Five hundred and seven-three
applicants were not found at the ad-
dresses given, and S07 did not, in the
Judgment of our staff, require aid The
causes, as stated above, represent a fair
Judgment of the cause Of distress at the
time, but too often, when we assign sick
ness, intemperance and desertiOn as
causes we know that the tenement
house itself is the real underlying evil;
that herding large numbers of people in
contracted spaces has resulted in abnOr-
NAL minds and unhealthy bodies, the log
ical consequence of which is a burden

A Most Imprtoant Feature in the
Welfare of a Nation.

The hero of the future is the captain Of
industry, not the captain of armies. The
struggle is to produce the most, and
most cheaply-not to destroy the most
and most quickly. The strong nation
is the one whose manufactures and
whose merchant marine reach farthest
in supplying the needs of the peoples, and
return best laden with the needed goods
of other lands. The keynote of success,
the secret of power, is economy-econo-
my in production, in methods, in man
agement. The vast growth of manufac.
turing establishments must be met by
adequate growth and adjustment in adj
ministration. Organization must re-
place the individual supervision and con-
troll which was sufficient even to the
great works of a half century ago.
In the study of works management lies
the highway to larger success and wider
influence than the material conditions of
the past ever made possible. Before en-
gineers and managers lies the duty of
meeting the conditions-and the other
great duty of using their influence and
their power in the affairs of the nation,
so that justice and wisdom may govern
the state at home and abroad. The task
is responsible one. but home and for
eign politics have proved, during the year
inst closing. the triumphant success
which follows when the industry and
commerce of the country speaks clearly
to its rulerS.-Engin Magazine.

work having been already authorized.
The idea in mind is to ascertain whether
the heat developed by burning the city's
garbage can be utilized in developing
power to an extent TO make an adequate
return upon the capital invested, This
plan is in operation in several European
cities of smaller size, especially where
the garbage refuse of local industries has
high calorifc power. 1t is claimed if
sufficient power can be generated to cover
the mere cost of garbage collection, a
trial will be made on more extensive

Plans are on foot to do away with the

around Cape Hatteras. During the last

Beaufort inlet. Two corps OF engineers
are now working along these lines, and
it is expected that an appropriation will
be asked for to carry on the work. At

if carried out, will save many lives and
