Tell the Policeman,

A middle-aged lady whose careworn
face showed that the world had dealt
somewhat harshly with her, was no.
ticed in earnest consultation with
Sergeant Morrison on Monday con-
cerning runaway husband. whom
she was anxious!to locate itreminded
more than one observer of the follow
ing lines, (not from Longfellow):
If you bear load of trouble that you
think may bend you double and
thesburden grow no lighter as you
plod along the way,
If today is one of sorrow and no joy
in sight tomorrow, if the sun of
golden promise sends to you no
CHEEKY ray.
Do not cloak your face with sadness
and in sort of semi madness pour
your story in the ears of
friends you meet upon the street.
They have cares too great to mention
that require their whole atten-
tion; go and sing your doleful
song to the policeman on the beat
Every man upon his shoulders bears
some burdens big as boulders, and
none of them cares to have you
pile your own upon the load.
Doesn't care to hear you chewing at
the rag in grim reviewing of the
way you feel the prickings of mis-
fortunes cruel goad.
Though he listens to your fretting he
is earnestly regretting that he
cannot bid you wander to the
land of fiery heat
Or, to more politely put it, he is wish
ing you would cut it, and would
go and tell your troubles to the
copper on the beat.
Bear the load meath which you labor
do not seek to have neighbor go
ahead and brush aside the thorns
that in your path are thrown.
For, although he may not show it,
may not care to let you know it,
you can bet your frowning feat
ures he has troubles of his own.
If it gives you satisfaction thus to
keep your jaw in action, seek a
sympathetic hearer out upon the
quiet street,
When you see big star glisten there
you'll find an ear to listen, and
your troubles you can tell to the
policeman on the beat.

sued from the general Office a careful
count has been made of the number
of passengers carried daily between

ed that the Morris & Essex Division
handled the heaviest suburban traffic
of any road in the country.
The daily average was SO, 249 pas
sengers, although had the count been
made later in the season the average
would undoubtedly have been much
greater.
The count developed the fact that
between the hours of 6 and am. 722
passengers were moved; between z
and s a. m. 2, 342 passengers, s and
a. M, 6, 463, 9 to 10 a M, 2,176 pas
sengers, 10 until noon, 1897 passen-
gers, and from moon until midnight
8, 667 passengers, all eastbound, or a
total of 10, 267.
Westbound the heaviest movement
was found to be between and 6 p.
M. when 5,044 passengers were car
ried. The total number handled in
and out of Hoboken was 30, 847, leav-
ing 6, 1893 on and off at local stations.
1t was found that forty nine per
cent. of the total number of passen-
gers carried into Hoboken were moved
between and a. m., and that out
of Hoboken, westbound, forty-two per
cent. were moved from to p. M.
The report showed that nineteen per
cent. only of the passengers came
| from west of Milburn.
The three stations-Harrison, Broad
Street, Newark, and Roseville Avenue
handle about thirty-one per cent. of
the total. Between and 8 a. m. and
8 and p. m. each train to and from
Hoboken averages 337 passengers,
During the count it was found that
of the 81, 470 passengers carried into
Hoboken but 2, 74S missed their boat,
going in on twenty trains, six of

mitted him to the county Jail where

IMPURE BAKING POWDER SEIZED

The New York Board of Health Find ii
| Contains Alum and Rock, Declare II
Dangerous to Health and Dump in Into
the River.
The new York papers report that the
Health Department of that city has
seized as dangerous to health nearly two
tons of cheap mixtures sold for baking
powder, and dumped them into the
offal scow to be destroyed. More of the
powder was found in Sixth avenue
department. store. The report of the
analysis of the Health Department
stated that it was AN alum baking
powder" containing alum and puIverized
rock.
The different Health Authorities seem
to have different ways OF repressing the
sale of bad baking powders. In Eng
land they have prosecuted the grocers
under the general law and broken up
the traffic. In Missouri the sale of
alum baking powder is actually pro
hibited by law. In New York they
seize the unwholesome stuff and cast it
into the river, without any discussion.
The latter way is certainly effective.
The alum baking powders are usually
offered at low price, ten to twenty
cents a pound, or with a prize. as a
temptation to the housewife.
Consumers can protect themselves by
buying only high grade baking powder
of established name and reputation. Do
not be tempted by the grocer to take
something else as ''just as good or ''our
own brand" for the trials show that
the grocer himself is often deceived by
unscrupulous makers and is selling an
alum powder without knowing it.
There are several good powders on the
market; let the housekeeper insist on
having wha+ she knows is right, and not
be induced to risk the life of the family
for an imaginary saving of few cents.

Letter to George II. Brown,
MorriStoWn N. j,

Dear Sir: There was a time when
it paid painter to paint lead and oil,
and fight shy of anything else. Thai
was when the market was full of
poor paints, and zinc was unknown.
Now zinc has come in, lead and oil
must give way--it is too short-lived.
There are two ways to use zinc
you can mix it in with lead in a tub,
or buy Deyoe lead and zinc, which
is ground together by machinery.
If you mix your own lead and zinc,
you gain something; if you buy
Devoe q haynolds you gain more,
because machinery does better work
than hand mixing. Experience is
worth something. We've had 14t
years of it.
Yours truly,
