the course she took to, get her civil en-
gineer's degree might. naturally have
been expected to lead her into archi-
lecture as a profession, she put that
more artistic profession aside to apply
herself to constructive engineering as
she saw she was better fitted for it.
How did l get into this wOrk?" Miss
Parker said in response to a leading
question. "Oh, / always had an in
clination for mathematics, and after
was graduated from the Detroit
High school l wentNto the University
of Michigan with thesdetermination Of
being a civil engineer. When 1 left
college / had an offer TO come to New
York, and l acceptedit. OF course my
friends suggested that Istake up archi-
lecture. but I'm not thef least bit Of
an artist. and I've stuck to this work
ever since. Thats,allthereis to it,
In the beginning Miss Parker's du-
ties were simply to O,make drawings Of
individual beams and ,girders, but it
was not long before she' began to have
more important tasks, assigned to her,
and for the last five years her time
has been taken up entiEely with the
plans of such immense buildings as
have been named.
In the FIVE years Miss tParker has
been working on plans, for Nthese great
skyscrapers and 1.-The little ones of
ten or twelve stories that don't count

Tnct In Drenn.

Tact in dress is necessary to every
woman who hopes to become represent
ative Of that refinement which is the
chief ornament of womanhood or girl
hood It is rare that one sees French
people dressed out Of keeping with
their surroundings or position. In the
latter half Of the nineteenth century a
noted woman of France, Nine. de Gi-
rardin, said: "Style ought inevitably to
vary according to position and age. It
should fit itself to the fortune, to the
habits. TO the form, to- the circum-
stapces and indeed to every detail in
the life Of those who wish to appear
its leaders" This truism is as real to
day as at the time it was written, but
unfortunately outside of Ia belle
France this fitting Of self to ones
sphere is honored more in the breach
than in the observance.

Nervou. HABIT. In chiIdren.

Curing the nervous habits or tricks"
of children is one of the most insistent
problems facing parents. The problem
is made particularly difficult because
the habits come so quietly that we
find them established before we have
really noticed them. Some habits are
caused by disordered nerves, and In
such a case the doctor must be con-
suited. Twitching Of the face or limbs,
opening Of the mouth. blinking Of the
eyes, hesitation OF speech, are all indi-
cations that something is wrong, and
no child must be punished for them.
Indeed, mere punishment never does
any good either to the tricks depend
ent on bad health or on those OF imita-
tion. Defective sight is the cause OF
many so called tricks. A child whose
vision is faulty screws up his eyes or
scowls in his efforts to adapt his pow
ers of sight. In such case an optician
or oculist should be called In and the
sight tested. A bad habit is simply re-
peated action, and it is only by persist
emily stopping 1t that one can hope to
eradicate it.-Woman's Life.

NOTESOF THE RAILWAYS
Pooling System of Car Repairs
For New York Central.
ALL SUPPLIES WILL BE UNIFORM

Eugene Chamberlain Put In CharEe
OF Clearing Hopse For Keeping
Freight Car Equipment In Order.
To Benutify Right OF Way Illinois
Central win Rent Land 10 Farmers
For Raising Grass - Erie's steel
Postal Car.
A new and important department
viii be added to the New York Central
lines on July /, when Eugene Cham
berlaIn will open up the clearing house
under which all freight oar repairs on
the system win be pooled, says the Chi
cago Tribune. His headquarters viii
be In New York.
Preparations for the starting OF this
department have been under way for
two years. and 1t Is another step for
ward In the policy Of President New
man to unity all lines In the system.
II is expected to mean greater economy
and efficiency In keeping the freight
car equipment in first class condition
and will facilitate the promptness with
which repairs can be made.
One OF the changes VIII be that all
the shops will have uniform supplies
and when car is damaged II can be
repaired at the nearest plant without
regard to the road by which It is
owned. The economies Of this scheme
are manifest on account Of the ellmina
ton Of delays and the consequent in
crease In the earning capacity OF the
equipment.
The plans % the New York Central
were perfected after carefully study.

which has hneo IN operation by the
Pennsylvania lines for several years
Mr.. Chamberlain believes. however
that he win be able to eliminate some
Objectionable features which he found
In the Pennsylvania shops and TO effect
even greater econorales than the Penn
sylvania has been able TO accomplish.
In his capacity as chairman Of tho
clearing house Mr.. Chamberlaln's ju
risdiction will extend over all the lines
and viii permit him TO make any
changes which he may deem necessary
for the improvement Of any OF th'
shops.

in securing a right Of way averaging
200 feet for the entire distance down

richest farming land In the world, and
the right OF way Is wide enough at sta

provided for. But such a magnificent
