Knives for thesone-Armed.

What is that thing over there?"
asked man on a high stool at a
lunch counter.
The thing he was pointing at was
shaped like sickle, had a handle,
and at the very tip of the blade was
a pronged fork.
Thar" said the waiter why,
that's a one-armed knife. Ever see
one before?' And he passed it over
the counter for inspection. Nearly
all restaurants keep them in their
stock of cutlery nowadays.
You see, the one armed man can't
cut his meat with the same motion
that you or l use. He must bear
down on his steak or chop, and to
make the work easier for him some
wise chap invented this sickle shaped
knife with a fork attached.
IF you'll notice, it is made on the
principle of the half circular cutter
harnessmakers use. To be sure, we
have to keep them sharp or their use
fulness would be gone."-New York

Born on Field of Waterloo.

There was recently living in a town
in Germany a woman who was born
actually on the field of Waterloo while
the battle was raging. Her mother,
an Irishwoman of noble family. had
married a German officer and followed
him to the wars. She was present at
every battle in the Peninsula in which
he fought. Then she went into Bel
GUM, and on the night before Water
loo she, with another woman, lay out
for hours in the wet under trees and
hedges. While the battle was still
raging she was taken i'll, and was car
ried into a shed, where her babe was
born. 1t was a terrible cradle for the
little one; it had been used as field
hospital, and all around lay the shat
tered limbs which the surgeons had
amputated. But child and mother
throve. The baby was christened
Waterloo" and lived to marry and
settle down in Hanover.

A special train of this sort can be
made up and started out at any time,
for there is no engine to fire up.
These experiments have shown that
when the automobile is put on tracks
it can make it's way in spite of snow
or any kind of weather, and Guido the
steam locomotive in light work, speed
and economy. Moreover, it is
great grade climber. 1t can travel
with ease over grades of five feet to
the hundred, while four feet to the
hundred is the limit for steam loco
motives, which even then have to
crawl at a snail's pace.
In France automobiles are run in
trains on ordinary roads by an inven-
ton of Col Renard of the French
army. His motor car does not drag
the trailers by sheer force, like a
locomotive. Instead, it generates the
power, which is transmitted to each
of the cars in the train by means of
a long jointed shaft. In this way a
train of light cars trundles along over
the country roads at speed of six
teen miles an hour.
This shows how the automobile is
slowly but surely becoming the rival
of the locomotive. The day may not
be far distant when all passenger traf-
fic will be done by trains of auto
matte motor cars running at speed
of 100 miles an hour. 1t seems likely
that even the fast-growing\ trolley
may have to give place to the auto
train on long-distance runs.

where with safety. With alcohol and
gasoline at the same price automobile
experts calculate that alcohol is about
10 per cent cheaper.
In France and Germany alcohol is
used almost entirely now for running
automobiles. Some of the French ma
chimes that are imported into this
country have motors that can be run
either by gasoline or alcohol But by
a slight Change in the carburetef, the
Classifying apparatus, alcohol can be
used in any automobile.

fuel of the future for all automobile
motors" says H. L. Radford, the Bos-
ton automobile designer and builder
1T is a matter entirely dependent on
the carbureter. With this appliance
properly designed it is possible to run
all cars by alcohol with every advant-
age. 1t goes further and is easier and
safer to handle.

WAS CURED RAPIDLY
RHEUMATISM IN TWO SEVERE CASES
MASTERED IN FEW WEEKS.

rhe Remedy Used by Mr.. Schroeppel and
by Captain I-aIfour in Great Demandin
Vicinity of Their Homes
In the winter of 1902 8 Mr. Schroeppel
was confined to his bed by a severe at
tack of rheumatism. His doctor treat
ment proved unsuccessful, but he subse-
quently regained his health by means
which he describes with great enIhu-
siasm.
AFTER five or six weeks of helpless
ness and pain, !" said he, :" during which
I was receiving regular visits from the
doctor, felt as bad ever. Just then
my mother. woman eighty years Of
age, paid me visit. She had received
great benefit from DIR. Williams Pink
Pills, and she was confident they would
help me- At her solicitation gave mp
the doctors treatment and took the pills
in its place.
"And We're you cured as the result OF
taking her adyice?"
Eyes, quickly and thoroughly. Be-
fore the second box was finished felt
very manifest improvement, and within
two weeks was able to leave my bed and
take up my neglected farm work. / con-
tinued to use the pills, however, until
eight boxes had been taken, although
long before that felt that every YES
care there no traces left?"
absolutely none. For a year and
three months there has never been the
slightest return of the old trouble. For
this happy result aud my family freely
praise DIR. Williams Pink Pills.
Within the bounds of China township.
St. Clair county, Mich, there is no bet
ter known farmer than Mr.. Henry
Schroeppel. His cure has therefore nat
urally attracted a great deal of attention.
One of Mr.. Schroeppel's neighbors, Cap
tain George Balfour, after hearing of the
saIutary results in Mr.. Schroeppel's case,
decided to try DIR. Williams Pink Pills
for an attack of rheumatism from which
he was himself suffering. He took eight
or ten boxes and now declares himself
free from the painful ailment."
1t is little wonder that DIR. Williams
Pink Pills are much in favor in the com.

tain Balfour are SO we'll and favorably

of it as out of any gasoline ever
made"
In Germany fuel alcohol is made
largely from potatoes. The starchy
substance of potatoes is very easily
and cheaply converted into alcohol.
All that is necessary is tin or copper
STILL worm and condensing tank
and a few barrels for watts. Any
farmer can make it as easily as he
can cider.
But of course with large demand
great alcohol distillerieS have been
established. Fuel alcohol is made
from entirely different products than
ethyl alcohol, which is used in liquors.
That is made largely from barley,
wheat and maize, and is necessarily
an expensive product In making fuel
alcohol all sorts of waste products
can be used, frozen potatoes, corn
stalks, shavings and sawdust. The
waste heaps around every sawmill in
the country can be profitably utilized
if universal demand for fuel alcohol
be created by the removal of the duty.
Sugar beetS are easily made into al
cohol. 1t is possible that the waning
sugar beet industry of the West may
be - revived when the alcohol tax is
removed and the sugar-making plants
turned into distilleries fer making
fuel alcohol. There is no limit to The
ways in which alcohol can be pro
duced, if only there be a great enough
demand to consume it. 1t is a thing
that can never be monopolized, like
oil and gasoline.
