Chinese Names.

In China there is no fixed nomencla-
ture- even the country itself is without
a name-and this lack of distinct and
recognized appellations was frequent
source of difficulty. Of personal infor-
nation from natives there was none
obtainable on which any credence
could be placed. A ChinaRan, unless
he be porter coolie or a boatman,
rarely travels or gets during his life
more than a few miles in any direction
from the place where he was born.
When trying to procure information
concerning the. immediate locality 1t
was no uncommon thing to have a ma
tive, and even sometimes men of local
position, say. .Oh, | have never been
so far away as that or. Il have never
been across that hill, and SO do not
know what is beyond. -Harper's

The trains are ordinarily made up of
two cars, but the station platforms are
made sufficiently long to accommodate
four-car trains whenever the develop
ment of traffic calls for them. las each
car carries it's own motor, the speed
will not vary with the weight of the
train. The system is fitted with an
automatic block system, in which the
signals are regulated By the car itself,
and, consequently the Roadway be-
tween the trains may be reduced, if de-
sired, to two minutes. An efficient sys-
TEN of braking is used, the chief relf-
ance being placed upon the Westing-
house pneumatic brake, with which all
the cars are fitted. The speed may also
be controlled by a hand brake, con-
nected up with the fittings of the West
inghouse brake, and also by an cleo
trical brake; while an emergency stop
may be made by reversing the motors.
The cost of construction of the line
was from $780, 1000 to 1925, 600 per mile,
including the foundations and the sta
tions If We include the cost of the
equipment, which provides sufficient
number of cars to allow the trains to
be started at from two to three minutes
intervals. the total cost per mile will be
about S265,O00.

Better Times for Drug t-lerk.

Gov. Roosevelt has signed the Henry
bill, which provides that no drug clerk
in New York shall be allowed to- work
more than seventy hours a week: that
they shall be allowed one hour for each
meal and have one full day off in eyery
two weeks. Another clause of the bin
provides that clerks must not sleep in
any store or apartment which does not
comply with the sanitary inspection of
the health board. The passage Of this
bill will mean a general oyerhauling of
drug stores throughout the city.

which he was the owner. The railway
extends between the towns of Barmen
and Elberfeld, in Germany, which are
situated in the picturesque Wupper
Valley. The superstructure, or railway
proper, consists of system of latticed
longitudinal Orders. one vertical and
two horizontal, assembled into the form
of an I-section, the main Orders form
ing the web of the /, and the lateral
Orders, which give the necessary hori-
zontal stiffness, serving as the top and
bottom fanges of the l. Diagonal tie
rods extend from the upper panel points
Of the central girder to connection
with the chords of the bottom lateral
girder. The last mentioned chords
consist of steel beams, and upon their
upper fianges is laid the single Trail,
from which the cars depend and on
which they run. The Orders, which
are generally of about one hundred feet
span, are carried upon two different
styles Of support. Where the railway
is located Immediately above the Wup-
per River, the A frame style Of pier is
used, while in the suburbs of towns
through which the line passes the
trusses are carried upon large inverted
y frames.
The railway throughout it's entire
length is double-track, with loop at
each terminus. The cars are suspend
ed from two two wheel motor trucks,
which are attached to the roof of the
car, one at each end. The motor is car
ried on the outside of the truck frame,
and in position midway between the
two wheels, and it receives the current
by means of a slip-shoe and contact
rail, which is carried on the bottom of
the lateral girder, little to the inside
of the main supporting l beam. The
motors are of So horsepower, and the
maximum speed, between stations, is
about 20 miles an hour.
The style of the cars is shown clearly
in the accompanying illustration. They
can accommodate fifty passengers, and
each car is divided into first and sec
ond-class, and smoking compartments.

BEST AGE FOR MEN TO MARRY

Not Until They Have Passed Twenty
five Should They Take a Wife.
Edward Box, writing in the Ladies'
Home Journal, on "A Boy for Hus-
band,'' contends that mo young man
under 25 years of age is in any sense
competent to take unto himself wife
Before that age he is simply boy who
has absolutely nothing which he can
offer to girl as safe foundation for
ife-happiness. He is uniformed in his
character, unsettled in his ideas, abso-
lutely ignorant of the first essentials
of what consideration or love for a
woman means. He doesn't know him
self, let alone knowing woman. He
is full of fancies, and it is his boyish
nature to fit from one fancy to an
other. He is incapable of the affection
upon which love is based, because he
has not lived long enough to know
what the feeling or even the word
means. He is full of theories, each one
of which, when he comes to put it into
practice, will fail. He is boy, pure
and simple, passing through that try
ing period through which every boy
must pass before he becomes a man.
But that period is not the marrying
time. For as his opinions Of life are to
change, so are his fancies Of the girl he
esteems as the only girl in the world
to make him happy. The man of 80
rarely weds the girl whom he fahcied
when he was 90"

Bullet-Proof Shields on Rifles

A bullet-proof shield has been invent
ed which, it now seems certain, will be
adopted by the British infantry. AL
though less than one-eighth of an inch
in thickness, it is absolutely bullet
proof at less than 300 yards against
Lee-Metford and Mauser rifles firing
service ammunition. The shield is de-
signed for the protection of the soldier
when lying down to fire and also when
advancing into action. When advanc-
Ing in the face of a heavy fire the shield
is fixed to the rife and the rifle being
carried in vertical position, the shield
swings in a way to protect the head
and chest.

Novel System Now I'm Operation Be-

Among the many systems which have
been proposed for the construction Of a
single rail railroad, there is one which
has been so far realized that it is to-
day in partial operation, and is in a fair
way to be completed. About half the
system was in working order some
twelve months ago, and the whole line,
which covers total length Of S.3 miles,
will be opened to the public during the
present year.
The Langen mono-rail railroad,
which forms the subject of our illustra-

A physician in Scott County, Kansas,
recently moved to another part of the
State because he could not make both
ends meet in his practice, but his SER
vices were so badly needed in the old
field that the citizens circulated a petit
ton asking the county commissioners
to appropriate bonus of $500 annually
to the doctor on condition that he
should return. The commissioners
made the appropriation, and the doctor
has gone back to his former home.

Is indeed no way of indicating the
growth OF this nation that is more
striking than to state the record of a
few Of its Presidential votes. Abra-
ham Lincoln received popular vote of
less than 100000 in a total vote of
1850, 1913. That was only forty years
ago. Garfield was elected in 1880 by q
vote OF a, AS, O53 in d total of 9,209, 416.

were cast for Lincoln and nearly twice
as many as were cast for all candidates
in 1880.

w. Bourke Cochran. the Democratic
orator, is said to have a marvellous
memory. James D. Hughes relates in
the Philadelphia Record that several
years ago he sat in the third row in the
balcony Of a hall in Cleveland, Ohio,
when Mr. Cochran delivered an address
there. Two years later he was pre-
scented to Mr.. Cochran. He said: II
do not remember having met you, but
your face is familiar to me-" Mr..
Hughes replied that Mr.. Cochran had
never seen him before. but that he had
seen Mr.. Cochran in the West. All,
yes.'. he cried, quickly, "at Cleveland
two years ago, you sat in the balcony"
Mr.. Cochran afterward explained that
the faces of his auditors are strongly
stamped upon his mind whenever he
speaks in public, and remain upon his
memory for years afterward. Cleve-
