RemnyIng n Mountain.

In building the railway running
from San Jose to the Pacific coast in
Costa Rica, the engineers were COM
PEELED to run the track along ledge
on the side of a mountain just above
the River Reventa. The soil of the
mountain is a sort of blush clay
which turns into mud during the
rainy season and washes out the
track, so that gangs of men are kept
constantly at work clearing the road.
To add to the troubles, a lake at the
back of the mountain is fed by
springs, and the mountain is always
wet and the track constantly threat
ened. In this emergency there is
only one thing to do, and that is to
remove that part of the mountain
over which the railway runs. With
the aid of what is known as a hy-
draulic giant-a machine which
throws a powerful stream of water
with tremendous force-the engi-
neers are now busy washing the
mountain into the river. When their
task is completed, they will have the
satisfaction of knowing that it is
possible to remove a mountain

SaloonEee: !ers scent an active day,

held, and strong resolutions COM

Counting the Cost.

In a certain NorthDakota town there
are two physicians, one elderly, with a
long record of cures, the other young
with his record still to make. The old
er doctor was inclined to surrender
some of his night-work TO the younger
man. An exchange cites an instance in
which this turning over" was at
tempted. One winter night DR.. b

what they would say. "Well, what

have been as gratifying as it was anus

Suicide Rooms.

In one of the local asylums for the
insane there are certain apartments
known as "suiede-rooms." These are
set aside as harbors of refuge for
those patients who manifest strong
desire to end their lives. Everything
in these rooms is round. There are
no knobs or posts to the beds, for
the maniac would tie sheet around
any such projection and hang him
self. For the same reason there are
no gas fixtures and no inside shutters,
There are not even door knobs, while
the doors themselves are made to open
outward. Whenthe men undress their
clothes are carefully removed from
the room, so that they may not be
used for stranglng their owners. All
the edges of bureaus, the backs of
chairs, ETC., are carefully rounded, so
that there may be no points upon
which the inmates might beat their
heads. No canes or sticks are al
lowed in the rooms. The doors are
left open at night, and keeper pa
rades necessarily up and down be-
fore them.-Philadelphia Record.
