The other day a child fell out of the
window Of n moving car on the New
York elevated railway. That will
cause mothers to shudder. The moth.
ers who travel have been positive that
no greater danger could menace their
offspring than open car windows. They
have mentally calculated that it is only
matter of time when some precious
cherub will go hurtllng down under
the merciless car wheels, and the I'M
dertaker will do the rest Women,
and men, too, worry much about
things that may happen, but seldom
do AS far as is known, but two chill
dren out of the millions of little trav-
elers ever fell out of car windows,
previous to the New York episode. In
this case handy man, with presence
of mind. happened along in time to
catch the child, which feat he neatly
performed, although the human meteor
weighed thirty pounds, and gave
Daniel Walsh, bricklayer, a strenuous
Jolt. The child was uninjured. A
story that has been passed down from
early generations deals with boy who
had an intense love for chicken, and
his mother always saved the heart of
the fowl for her loved one. One day
the heart slipped down his throat be-
fore his teeth could perform their du-
| ty, and the boy choked to death. Ever
since mothers have been carefully
carving chicken hearts or warning chill
dren to "chew it fine" and worrying
most needlessly. There are men and
women by the score who will not visit
Europe because of the perils of the sea
voyage. They wVlld not hesitate t
go round the world on a railway train
Statistics show that ocean travel Il
safer than railway travel. The mora
of 1t all is that II we humans must
worry, why not endure mental distress
about things that are at least within
shooting distance, If possible.

Why should Inherited wealth be "a big handicap to hap

add to what may be over-suiiciency?" Why should
man who gets millions from his father be unable to make
himself the architect of his happiness? Great wealth

one Ia above 20 years of age. The
condition that brings about this state
Of affairs Is worth while Inquiring into.
A Hennepin County Judge, comment
Ing upon the situation. says that he be-
lieves the increase of crime among
young men Ia due to their being forced
out Of many sources OF employment by
girls. The one thing certain Is the
fact that there are more young men
occupying cells in Jails and peniten-
tiaries than there were a few years
ago, and 1t behooves those persons who
interest themselves In criminology to
inquire into the conditions that have
brought about this increase In the
criminal tendencies Of young men.

The cost Of extra knots of high speed

The cost Of extra knots Of high speed
was elucidated by recent experiments
with a new armored British cruiser,
Cape of Good Hope, of II, 100 tons.
On her eight-hour trial she made a
mean speed of 1905 knots. Her coal
expenditure for various speeds was
plotted with surprising results. To go
from 11.6 knots to 23 knots needed,
roughly, $4,000 additional horse power,
while the last knot alone absorbed
6.821 horse power. That Is to say,
to progress from % to % knots needed
as much power as the total required
to drive the ship at about 10 knots; or,
to put IL in still another way, the
power needed to drive the Cape of
Good Hope at full speed would propel
two similar vessels at about 10 knots.
The coal consumption at full speed
was. roughly, twenty-six tons per
hour; at 10 knots, about II tons Der
hour. Again, at full speed the ship
would steam 0.95 knot for each ton OF
coal burned, while at 10 knots the dis.
lance would be double for a similar
consumption Of fuel.
