moro polite to Us than we are to them,
2. We will not make ourselves
odious in the use OF tobacco.

hats to ladies.

Electric Ticket Selling Machine.

There is at present under construc.
tion in the workshop of George Kirke.

be used on the elevated stations for
selling tickets. The machine referred
to is to be constructed in such way
that when you drop your nickel in the
slot you will receive ticket in ex-
change. There will he four OF these
on each of the larger stations.
The reason why this system has
been adopted by the railroad trustees

construction will lie put into use with.

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

The good mans life is like the spark
that is brightest at the close.
The door of mercy has hinges, and
ii may be shut, and then locked with
the adamantine key of justice.
. Idleness is craven's goal. No man
OF worth wants to be free from work.
Without work life is not worth the liv-
ing.
Difficulties of thought. acceptance
of what is without full comprehen-
sion. belong to every system of think
ing.
When interest is at variance with
conscience, any pretence that seems
to reconcile them satisfies the hollow
hearted.
If you want knowledge, you must
toll for it; if food, you must toll for
it; and if pleasure, you must toll for
it; toll is the law.
To let man know that you recog-
nize and rejoice in some good quality
of his, is to bless him with new
heart and stimulus.
Courtesy is the passport to success.
We double the power of our life when
we add to its gifts unfailing courtesy.
The world always begrudges room to a
boor
The habit of blaming others when
things 60 wrong is an insidious and
dangerous one. Far more is it to the
purpose to inquire within whether the
fault, or much of it, may not lie at
home.
Benefcence should never be exer.
cised at random, nor upon irrational
impulse, but should be the outcome
and expression of a disposition trained
and nourished in the atmosphere of
human friendship.
Cheeerfulness upbuilds, uplifts, at
tracts. Be cheerful. If you have not
the habit, cultivate it. Grumbling,
whining, complaining, are SO much
capital taken from your vital, mental
stock, and put to the bad use of help
ing to make others miserable.

The COLI Home Trainer.

The old man was telling his son,
who wanted to play golf for exercise,
that chopping wood would answer the
purpose just as we'll. "Oh, no,
father" said the 10y; sit is the walk
ing between strokes that makes golf
so valuable as exercise; that equalizes
matters and gives the legs q chance
as we'll as the arms. -
'That's it, is it?" said the old man,
cnd he went into the yard and placed
sticks of wood at intervals all around
it; then he handed the boy al axe and
said: "Now, play the full course. 4"

The utilization of the waste from
the manufacture of potato honr has

Holland. The residues are strained
to remove the peel, etc., partially
freed from water, then treated with
glycerine and mixture OF aid at

cid, grmmy mass obtained is dried and
pulverized. The powder, mixed with
four or five per cent. of water, is
pressed, molds being used if desired,
and tho product is q homogeneous,

wood. It can be worked with boring

possible screw threads, and is adapted
for most of the purposes for which
wood, vulcanite, celluloid and even
metal are employed. 1t is an excel

A writer on the subject of plant
pathology says that plants need doc
tors quite as urgently in their way as
human beings do. Horticulturists
have long admitted that the best way
Of making plants profitable is to keep
them in robust condition. But it is
not every one who knows how to do
this-in fact, the practice of plant
medicine is in its infancy. A horti-
cultural expert expresses the belief
that a time must come when every
agricultural district will have its
plant doctor, and when specialists in
animal parasites, cryptogramic botany
and bacteriology will be. consulted in
difficult cases as the medical specialist
is now called in by the practitioner.
