An interesting and significant
occurrence was a George Wash
ington Grafton delivered at the
annual meeting of the George
Washington Society in Alexandria
on the 22nd instant by Honorable
J. B. McCabe, a lawyer and
former Judge, of Leesburg, Vir-
ginia. Judge McCabe is a demo.
cratic orator of no small ability
and renown in Virginia. He fol-
lowed the opening speech of the
Governor of Virginia and after
landing the acts and the life of
of the great Washington, he
reached a climax in the state
ment that while Washington, as
the first man in the land,
launched the ship of state, the
man who is now at the head of
the country is endeavoring to
bring her back again to a
straight course. and that the
man who had his respect and
support was Theodore Roosevelt.
The address was received with
tremendous applause and the
significant feature of the oc-
currence lay in the fact that
the members of the George
Washington Society at Alex
andria are without exception
Southern Democrats.

Of it's greatest attractions being b a

There was all the preliminary excite
ment about getting the net ready and
preparing the torch. for the torch, mark
you, is a most important part OF the
outfit. How patiently have we in the
old days unraveled a heavy farm rope,
which, dipped in a barrel full of tar, will
blaze like an electric light! OF course
one had to know the country thor
oughly to 60 bat fowling in those lone.
~ places in the dead dark Of a Deem
Der night. The blaze Of the torch only
seemed to make the darkness visible.

thing considered, the seed for the en-
tire-crop should be cleaned in the
same way.
If, on the other hand, your grain
has a very short, poor or Indifferent
record in the locality, and it is badly
%shrunken, better discard it and look
for some new seed for a foundation
stock.
The selection of a new foundatio
stock of seed grain Is a matter of as
great Importance as the selecting of
foundation stock in stock breeding.
The first rule to be observed in this
selection is:-Get your seed just as
near home as possible. Get it from
the best farmer in the neighborhood
who has grown it for the longest time
under the best methods and has OBJ
tanned the best general results.

LONDON'S OLD CLOTHES.

The Way They Change owners
Adown the Social Scale.
In those parts of London in which
the penny is the standard of value
there is a traffic in secondhand materi-
ais of a sort that is unheard Of in any
city Of America.
For example, a dress costing 100
guineas and worn by a woman of fash
ion on one of the days of the Ascot
meeting will be seen perhaps twice
thereafter, one at a garden party
| and again at some function remote
| from town, after which it BECOMES the
| perquisite Of the lady's maid, from
whom it Is bought by an oily woman
who maintains what is called a ladies
wardrobe in Brixton or Bayswater.
To the dingy parlor in which this oily
hammered woman transacts her bust
ness come the wives Of struggling at
torneys, medical men and city clerks,
intent on bargains, and to n Of these
the Ascot dress, Positively worn by
Lady G.. in the royal ~inclosure," as the
whisper, is knocked down at the low
price of 10 guineas.
It's new owner wears it until it Is toe
shabby to be worn again, after which
it Is sold to a second rate wardrobe
and becomes the property of a green
grocer's wife, who takes it to pieces,
retrims it and wears it out Of the shop
until it is once more shabby. Their 1t

it catches the eye Of some coster lady
and is sold for 3 shillings.-Saturday

On Sable island, or the coast Of Nova

The Standard oil magnates
have nothing to say. There does
not really seem to be much for
them to say.

PAINTING sTEEL CARs.
Better Results Obtained if Shop Fore
men Could Experiment.

OF especial interest to the men
working in the paint shops of the rail-
roads is a paper presented at the re-
cent meeting of the Master Car Paint
ers' association by Mr.. T. J. Rode
baught of the p Ft- w. & c. Mr.
Rodebaugh suggested that better
progress would be made in the mat
ter of the preservation of steel cars
if the foremen were allowed by his
company some privileges in the matter
Of practical experimenting. He said
in part:
''Tests that are made by painting
plates of steel and mailing them on the
sides of a shop and putting them on
roofs for the purpose of testing to see
which is the best material, I do not
consider of much value because they
are not practical tests. They are not
exposed to the different climates and
to the same conditions that a car is
when running on the road. L do not
think that the 9roblem of painting a
steel car Will be solved until the man
agement stops the practice of loading
hot Stag and taking SledgehammerS on
the outside of the car to loosen the
coal and Stag that has frozen in them
during the winter. 1 think that if we
had steel box cars to paint we could
solve the problem much quicker. I
do not know OF any manufactured
paint now on the market that viii
stand fire. The best paint, I believe.
for first coating, is a formula COM
posed of red lead, adding 25 per cent
white lead, mixed with raw linseed Oil.
the oil should be boiled not longer
than five minutes. This will enable
you to skim off all the dirt and grease
that viii rise to the top. Do not use
dryer of any kind. In preparing the
car to receive the first coat when built,
we should be very careful that all the
oil and grease is wiped off clean with
turpentine, which has been left on by
the riveters. The thin scale should all
be removed with seraper, wire brush
emery or sand blast, or anything that
viii remove it. If a car is treated in
this manner I think it possible to make
it stand barring fire. The first coat
should have ample time to dry be-
fore the other coats are applied. ]
would suggest that if an old car is to
be reDainted, all the loose scale or
rusted parts should be thoroughly re-
moved and the above mixture could
be used on these parts,
