Not Excited.

Old Red is precisely as man was in
time Of the war or the rebellion. lie
dressed himself in blue uniform for
trip thinking it would be safe to travel
in that garb as 1t would enable him to
deceive people. After he bad travelled
some ten or fifteen miles be came in
contact with company Of rebels dress
ed in blue uniforms. Upon seeing him
DO was brought to halt by them and
asked what he was. "a Yankee" was
the reply, thinking he was safe. The
rebels without further inquiry took him
up and gave him a good thrashing and
let him 90 thinking what they had
done for him was enough. After his
release he thought IL wise to change
his uniform as it would not work like a
charm but had caused him to get good
licking. So he procured nice suit of
grey clothing and dressed himself in 1t
and proceeded on his journey. Pres
emily he met about 400 Yankees in grey
who halted him and asked him who he
was. 81 am a REBEL be exclaimed.
They likewise gave him good whip
ping and turned him loose. On he
went and met mixed crowd of men in
blue and grey that inquired who he was
and he then replied, 81 am just any
thing" and they did him no harm, Sc
with Red Heffer, be has been anything
from doodlebug to Red Heifer, See.
There is no chance to miss his name il
one never calls him by any name larger
than Red Heffer,
Old Red once raised his fly killer and
gallopped off from Dofotchit, and for.
tunately made his escape, but this is
one of the times he has gone up He
has not struck mixed crowd, therefore
we are going TO take him up and give
him good thrashing and let him go.

A MECHANICAL MARVEL.
What Sixty Miles an Hour Means to the
 Locomotive

What Sixty Miles an Hour Means to the
 Locomotive.
 It all sounds simple in the recital. The wonder of the thing comes into view only when one reflect on the speed and nicety with which cumbrOus parts are made 10 do their duty. The piston and connecting bar of modern lOc0m0- tive weigh some 600 pounds. When the speed is 60 miles an hour, these parts travel back and forth five time a second. Ten times a second, at the end of every stroke the piston head is at rest It must pass from this condition to valocity of 1,SG0 feet per minute in One-twentieth of a second. The drive wheels measure more than rod atevery revolution, but when going 60 miles an hour they must turn more than 300 times minute.
 Sixty miles an hour is the nearest commonplace to the mind of the up to date railroad man, but it means other things beside those described that are wonderful to the oustsider. It means a steam pressure blow of 20 tons on each piston every tenth of a second. It means that up in the cab the fireman
 
 is throwing into the furnace two-thirds of ton of coal every hour. No. 900 burns coal faster than ten men can mine it. It means two quarts of oil every hour to keepsher journal greased and everything running smoothly. It means that the engine with its half dozen cars and load of human freight is moving through space with twice the power of shot from 100 ton gun. It means that the engineer has worked her up to the point where she can use every ounce of steam, that he is coax ing her as jocky urges his mount in a fierce race. and yet it means that he is ready at a seconds notice to move the reversing lever and apply the air. brakes that will stop the mighty ava lanche within the distance that it covers as it stands on the tracks.-EarI W.

HOPE.

There is more Democratic politics to the square inch in Connecticut now than there has been for some time One would think to see the pulling and haul ing that the Democrats really have some hope. The poet says that hope springs eternal in the human breast. ' and it is possible that he meant to in- sinuate that Democrats are human. Anyhow. the Connecticut Democrats seem to be hoping. How they can do it is not apparent. They have had enough hope deferred to make their hearts sick. and they might remember Maine. but they don't seem to remember anything Let them hope on until calamity again Overwhelms them. as it is likely to on election day. They are entitled to the pleasures of hope, and that is about all they are entitled to. It is also about all they will get.

NEW ZEALAND NOTION.

They are not afraid to try experi- ments in New Zealand, and some of their experiments have worked so we'll as to justify their courage. Now it is announced that the government of New Zealand has prepared and intro duced into the parliament of that col ony bill creating fire insurance de- partment, which, if adopted, is to give to the public authorities the right to enter into this class of business. As first drafted, the bill made fire insur- ance q species of government monopoly that is, 1t was made compulsory, if owners of buildings or merchandise wished to insure them against fire, to do this through the instrumentality which the colonial government would provide; but on more reflection it was found that broad, sweeping measure of this kind might involve too great risk, and might fail to prove popular with the people. For this reason the

4 GOOD TIM F COMING.

Though Brother Totten of New Ha- ven doesn't claim to be a prophet there are many who think that he has won- derfully foreto1d some things that have happened. The Rev. MT. Baxter, an English seer. puts himself to the test in very definite way. He says that the millennium will begin during the summer of 1929. But many startling events, according to MT. Baxter, will occur before that fateful epoch begins. Between 1906 and 1917 the map of Eu- rope will be changed almost beyond recognition. France will absorb Switz- erland and large part of the present German Empire. The British Empire will be disunited. A "ten-kingdomed Latin confederacy" will be formed in opposition to Germany and Russia. A Napoleon will arise greater than the first. He will wage successful wars in 1923. 1924 and 1925. While the earth is thus torn with conflicts, Mfr Baxter tells us, the first stage of the Messiah's second advent will be marked by the translation to Heaven of 144000 living, watchful Christians. This will occur on February 26, 1924. Seven months later many of the evils foreshadowed in Revelation will be visited upon the earth. About the beginning of the year 1925 Satan and his angels" will be cast down to this earth. In that year the ten allied kingdoms will be changed into ten red republics and changed back again into ten monarchies with Napo- leon voted into power as Caesar or Roman Emperor. During his reign there will be worldwide famine, pesti- fence and war The seas and rivers will turn to blood, earthquakes will shake down all cities, the horrors cul- minating in the battle of Armageddon in 1929, followed by the inauguration of the millennium.
 Cut this out and paste it in your Pan- anna hat that was made under water by industrious Indians and will last at least until 1929. If Brother Baxter has prophesied truly he ought to have the credit of it.

THE BOOKSELLERS AND THE
 READERS.

hEAIJEhS.
 The probable truth of the prophecy that new books are to be issued this fall in greater numbers than ever before admits of little or no question. The output of each successive season has been steadily growing, and 1t is reasonable to infer therefrom that there is no immediate limit to the literary energies of writers or to the financial resources of publishers. One large pub~ fishing house just issued it's fall an- nouncement upon which are listed the title of 250 volumes, all of them to be before the public within the next three months. They naturally cover an ex- tensive field, but they do not by any means comprise the entire list of the forthcoming publications of that house. Before the winter is over it's autumn announcements will probably be doubled, and, as there are at least fifty arms in this country which do an ex- tensive business, the enormous dimen- sions of the literary output for the com- ing season may fairly be prophesied. The effect of this situation upon the writers and the publishers, as we'll as upon the reading public, is problem which does not appear to have been seriously considered by those most in- terested. Although to a certain extent the increase of books means an increase of reading. It is 8 decided fallacy to reason that the disposition or the ability of the public to purchase books in- creases as rapidly as do the volumes themselves. If the writers or the pub fishers do not limit themselves within the bounds of reason, the all-powerful- public may compel them to.
 In the point of fact, the publishing business has become so extensive and far-reaching, especially in it's issue of novels, that the selective energies of the reader must be exerted to the utmost in order to keep pace with the times. With so many books before him and so few that he can read in the few daily hours at his disposal, even the omniver- ous reader has no little difficulty in se- lecting the best, or what he considers best suited to his tastes. If the reader be q purchaser of books-in these days the large majority of people obtain their reading matter from public libra ries-he is thus placed by the publisher in a position which is unfortunate for both. The reader will buy but few books, the publisher has many to sell, and he thereby becomes indirectly his own competitor. Hence there has aris- en the prevailing custom by which a very few books are pushed into the widespread popularity of a hundred thousand edition, while at the same time other less fortunate writers of fic- tion are compelled to content them selves with much smaller sale It is 6 significant fact that the universally &C., knoWledged chef d'oeuvre of the past year is among the books which have reached only moderate circulation
