ELECTRICITY MEETS FAVOR.
Darkness Dissipated for Many Miles
by Electric Headlights.

The burlington railroad Is equippIng
its locomotives with electric head
lights. At present the enginemen are
familiarizing themselves with the
few lights tried as an experiment.
As they learn how to handle these.
more locomotives will be provided
with the new form OF headlight
General Superintendent Calvert Of
the Burlington gives some interest
ing illustrations OF the effectiveness
OF the electric headlight.
The advantages OF the electric
headlight are numerous and do not
know any objection worthy of consid-
Grafton that can be urged against ii.
One OF the chief improvements that
onglncmen can see Is switch targets
aud other distractions on the track
almost AS easily AS in daylight, and
far enough away to bring their train
TO stop before getting into trouble.
Another thing is that farmers and
others on crossings will be warned
by the bright light and fewer people
will be run into by trains
"On dark. foggy nights the refec-
tion shows around curves and pre-
vents head-end collisions. Electrici-
ty Ia so much better for headlighting
purposes than acetylene that we have
stopped experimenting with the lat
| ter altogether
AS an indication of the great bril-
lianey of the electric headlight. the
| first night an engine equipped with
one for experimental purposes WAS
| ON the ropd the agent at Grafton saw
| what appeared to be either comet
or train He knew that no train was

even then In the east end of the
Grafton yard. The dispatcher was
| himself perturbcd until il dawned
| upon him that the new electric head
| light was probably the solution pI
| what seemed a serious problem. II
turned out that the bright light which
the Grafton agent saw was the elec
| tric headlight on No. 3, which was
then In the Fairmont yards. seven
miles away.
Another similar incident occurred
on the first night At Otis Il freight
train pulled into a siding to get out
OF the way OF No. 3. when No. 3 was
twenty miles away. The conductor
saw the headlight hearing down npor
him and there was some rapid hus
Ting To get out of the way. the con

right on them. He waited 26 min

got safely in the clear and No. all

A girl can't help her looks, but her

A woman fiirt is more dangerous
than man tiirt, because she does 1t

Before girl gets married she

her husband than she does about liy-
