Two or three years ago there was
a genersl separation of railroad In
terests at Houston. The Southern
Pacific, Houston and Texas Central
and Central. East Texas had mp to
that time been operated under one
set of officers, but when the division
took place officers were appointed
for each individual road. This ar
raugement has not proven altogether

a merger OF the freight departments

How the Baby Assists.

Reader gentle or otherwise, have you
ever noticed how the young father and
mother of first baby carry on a CON
versatien?
If you have you must have wondered
how in the world they managed to talk
to each other before the baby became
a member of the family.
The following is a sample talk in a
family OF three, one of which trio is a
baby year old.
Mamma with infant on her lap)-
Baby, ask pepper if he will div NOM
mer re paper.
The paper is given.
Papa-Baby, ask oor mommer if she
knows where peppers slippers are.
''TelI pepper his slippers are in the
hall closet. girly baby" The slippers
are found and put on.
Baby, has 90 been a good little tot
kins today?"
''Girly baby. tell cor pepper dat oo's
been de bestest. doodest, sweetest little
popsy wopsy in the town. so 90 has"
''Tze dad to hear dat, baby. Pop
per's own daughter girly must always
be dood as DOLL
"Baby, now tell pepper baby totl6ins
is goin' sleepies and can't talk any
more. By. by, popper!'

The gender of Arkansas.


"The life of a schoolteacher would
be sorely monotonous" said teacher
of a boys school, eff it were not for
his sense of humor and the really fun
ny things which happen every day in
the schoolroom. One day. for instance,
| had up my smart class in grammar
and set the boys parsing. / called to
Moses, a colored boy, to parse Arkan-
sas, and he said Arkansas with en-
phasis on the second syllable. ! cor
rected his pronunciation, and he went
on:
Hark-en-saw is noun. objective
case, indicative mood, comparative de
gree, third person, passive and noni-
native case to scissors.
You haven't said what gender,
Moses | remarked.
Feminine gender quickly remark
ed my smart scholar
why. STRIP ! asked, somewhat puz-
zled.

norf. Louisa Anna on the souf. Mrs.
Slppi on the east and ever 50 many
more shemalas on the west
It was so well done | Joined in and
encouraged the laugh which followed
the smart boys humor.'

Where Metals Poll.

Kraft has determined the boiling
point of certain metals by the use of
vessels of quartz heated by an electric
furnace. Zinc sublimes below 300 de-
grees and at GAO degrees distills fairly
quick. The corresponding tempera-
lures for cadmium are 322 degrees and
448 degrees. Selenium distills quickly
at $50 degrees. tellurium at $50 degrees,
boiling being observable at $50 degrees.
Lead boils rapidly and distills at 1,160
degrees. Tin proves very refractory, no
distillation occurring even at 100. At
sos degrees antimony sublimes slowly
and at 775 to $50 degrees distills rapid
ly. Sublimation of bismuth commenced
at $40 degrees; the sublimate assumed
the form of drops at go degrees, and
the metal boiled briskly at 1850 de-
grees. A slight mirror OF silver APP
peared at 1.O0O degrees, and rapid vap-
orization proceeded at 1910 degrees.
Copper and gold boil at too high tenn
perat lures to be examined even in silica
With the former a slight amount of
subimate formed at 1916 degrees; with
the latter extremely little vapor arose
even at 1875 degrees. which is near
the point at which the resistance of
silica breaks down.-Scientific Ameri-

What This Resident Says is of Inf

When old-time residents and high

they must carry conviction to every

crossed over to lay MurieIs wrap about
her shoulders.

and brow. And he was satisfied.

where they should dine she had an

old times" Old times meant the days
when they had worked together as re-
porters on a local paper. That was
two years ago.
So tonight. down in the old fashioned
southwest quarter of the city, they sat
at one of the square tables. The low
ceilinged room was presided over by a
plump. kindly host. Apparently mon
sieur had not gained a single wrinkle
in these two years!
All, and here, too, came their old
waiter with one of those smiles of
the waiter who is at the same time
an old friend OF course he didn't
know anything about his patrons lives
during the past two twelvemonths. He
assumed that they were married.

Muriel. She flushed slightly.
Presently the girl ceased her flow of
light hearted chatter and began turn
