The road from there TO the Greenwich railroad
station. though only about two and one-half
miles long. is probably the most difficult piece Of
trolley construction in the State. The line passes
the highway. which is mostly ledge or
rocks. and is over hills and through valleys Much
blasting and filling in was required and through
a section where private property was taken via

of track TO be laid between Greenwich and STAN

Gas Stove "Don'ts. 4"

Don't buy small gas stove Unless
your family consists of two persons.
A four-hole stove. with top about
"a inches square, is so serviceable
that it pays whether a family be large
or small. Such stove costs only s12.
See that the stove you buy has an at
tachment for lighting the oven from
the outside. 1t is much superior to
and safer than the old method of
reaching in with a match.
Don't try to bake beans, beef Ia
mode or such dishes as need long
hours Of slow cooking. in gas stove.
It is cheaper to buy them. Never put
two dishes such as pie and molasses
cookies to bake at the same time.
They need very different heat. and
the cookies would be burned black
long before the pie was ready. You
can simmer cornei beef or soup as
slowly on a gas stove as on the back
of coal range. Every good gas stove
has a simmerer. 1t consumes the
smallest imaginable amount Of gas
and can be left untended safely for
hours half turned to cook the soup
stock or to keep a double boiler at
steam heat. Don't burn gas when the
flame is rec, or when it blows. Turn
it out, let the gc flow a few seconds
and relight. The flame must burn
blue to do good service; if it is red
the cooking utensils will get smoked
black.-Good Housekeeping.

HOT WEATHER PHILOSOPHY.
AS Espounded by the Man in the Linen

- Suit.
"In the summer / make it rule
rever-yes, never-to talk about hot
weather, and to think about it as little
as possible" said the man in the linen
suit, and l find am able to keep COM
parativey cool, and I certainly get more
enjoyment out of the long months of
summer than do my neighbors. l never
greet my friend with the query, ls
it warm enough for your" and when
they put the question to me / treat it
as a joke, change the subject and think
of something else. never look at a
thermometer on the street or anywhere
else, and never permit one in my Of
fee. ="
Il hold that thinking about the
weather makes man hotter, or he
thinks he is hotter, and, after all, iniasi-
nation cuts big figure in standing
any weather that might be sent along.
If man meets thermometer staring
him in the face at every street corner
and in every store OF office into which
he goes, and finds one thermometer re-
cords oS degrees, another 81, ahd a
third 81 1-2, he naturally wonders which
is right, and keeps his eyes out for
another thermometer, to compare its
readings with the others. First thing
YOU know the man gets the thermometer
and the hot weather habit. He looks at
the thermometer to learn how warm it
is, and no matter how comfortable he
may feel he gets hot and uncomfortable
when he sees high temperature record,
and he gets hotter, or thinks he does,
which is the same in the end, every time
he sees the mercury rise in the glass.
"On the other hand, the man who
keeps quiet and does not think about
the weather is never worried about the
weather. ."-New Orleans Times-Demo-
crdt,

Decorative Key Boards.

Key boards are among the latest
popular decorative fads and have a
certain utility. A panel of polished
wood has a cross piece of the same at
the Upper end. in which are small
hooks, to hold the keys. On the sur
face of the panel a large key is paint
ed, bearing painted ribbon. Over
each hook there is a special design to
designate the door or drawer to which
that key belongs. Some of these are
comic, others sentimental. Latch keys
are illustrated by silhouttes showing
forgotten latch keys, unsteady hands,
etc. There are often two cross boards
with hooks for large keys below and
small keys above: Floral designs
are fayorites:

Something About Icebergs

Navigators of the North Atlantic
have to be constantly on watch during
the summer months. for the icebergs
that come down from Greenland and
other Arctic regions, Some vessels
are fitted with apparatus that gives
immediate warning of the vicinity of
one, but where there is no such ap-
paratus, the temperature Of the water
is taken at intervals, for an iceberg
will make a vast extent Of sea cold.
An, iceberg is nothing but part of a
glacier that has been detached by
the action of water, washing and beat
ing against 1t. Some OF them are Of
enormous size. 1t is generally accepts
ed by scientific men that only one.
eighth OF the berg appears above the
water. If, therefore, the part that is
visible rises So. feet above the surface,
the part under water would measure
$50 feet. No wonder the sea captains
have a holy horror of them.

Mucous Lining and Music.

It's mean to tell tits joke, but 1t Is
too good to keep. A popular society
matron has daughter who has beau
tiul voice and is very pretty girl.
She has never taken singing lessons,
and some of the singers have been
consulted by her as regards their
terms. One of these instructors has
talked lot to the mother about CIV
ing her girl lessons. and assured her
that he was the fellow to develop that
voice until it would be a peach. ;"
He argued the matter over and over
again every time he saw the lady and
finally she said: 81 wish my daughter
to learn to sing, Professor High Notes,
but she is not we'll. She is suffering
constantly from sort Of indiges-
ton, and 1 don't think she feels well
enough to take the lessons"
"Pooh, pooh, my dear madam" re-
piled the professor. Nonsense! With
my teaching and ten cents worth Of
cream of tartar she will be cured at
once"
And yet that obstinate mamma has
not struck the trade. Maybe the
daughter has objected to the ten
cents worth of cream of tartar

NEW METHOD OF TRANSPORTATION.
VIII the Pipe Line Be Used for Other Pu'
poses Than Oil Distribution?

VIII the Pipe Line Be Used for Other Pur-
poses Than Oil Distribution?
One of the developments Of the COM
ing century, worthy of at least passing
thought, is the extent to which pneu-
matte tube principle will be employed
to expedite transportation which is
now entirely dependent on steam loco
motives.
For example, the long lines of load
ed coal cars go from the mines to
the seaboard, ant come back empty
to the mines. If the weight of a car
is Is percent of the gross load, there
is in this instance more than SO per-
cent loss or non-paying freight, the
empty train requiring about as much
power to haul it up into the interior as
was expended in taking it to the ship
ping port.
It does not seem altogether unrea~
sonable, therefore, to think that just
as the miles Of tank cars loaded with
oil, which were seen in former years,
have disappeared, and that commodity
is now sent hundreds Of miles through
pipe lines, 80 may coal, grain, an
ore be sent speeding through tubes to
central depots for local distributions
IN the sisttsT sfsttts q coal
in fact, just such pipe line conveni.
ence was tried experimentally some
thing like 10. to -12 years ago by the
late w. c. Andrews of New York, the
coal for that purpose being ground
into powder, mixed with water in suf1-
ciently large proportion, and carried
through the pipes in semi-liquid form.
At the delivery end Of the pipe line
there were to be settling chambers for
the mixture, enabling the water to. be
drained off and the coal paste, IL we
may so term it, to be pressed into
cakes and dried for consumption.
The project. however. did not extend
beyond a brief experimental career.
In wcolen mills. on the other hand,
it is a common thing to blow wool
from one building to another through
pipes by means Of fans. and in pot.
teries, too, clay paste is frequently
carried from one point to another
through pipes. There is, thus, fair.
ly good beginning for pipeline engi.

PEARLS OF THOUGHT

The reward Of a thing we'll done fs
to have done it.
Idleness is both a great sin and the
cause Of many more.
Our deeds determine us, as much as
we determine our deeds.
Some men take a lifetime to prove
how much wisdom they lack.
A moral wrapped up in sugar goes
down certainly, but it may be feared
that it only goes down because of the
sugar.
1t is only the critic and the philoso-
pher who can penetrate into all states
of being, and realize their life from
within.
There are seasons when to be still
demands immeasurably higher
strength than to act. Composure is
often the highest result of power.
The art of putting men in the right
places is the highest in the science of
government, but that of finding places
for the discontented the most diff
cult.
1t is the compensation Of the hum
BILE that the fountain Of their blood is
made sweet by denial, swift by plain
fare, and strong by living close to
natures heart.
The habit of blaming others wheI
things go 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.
He who is everybody's friend is gen.
orally nobody's. The character which
can shape itself to fit in every niche
is like an India rubber ball, too NAL
leable to stay long anywhere or have
much inside except air.
