Disasters.

will make a statement which will be
challenged. but which cannot be dis
proved. says Frederick Upham Adams.
in Success Magazine. The abnor
maily heavy locomotive, now th.
standard of American railroads, is the
positive cause Of a large percentage OF
railroad accidents, most Of which are
charged against other factors of equip
ment or service. The craze for power
full locomotives set in about 1878. Prior
to that time the average locomotive
weighed from 25 to 80 tons Our roads
were planned for engines of this type
and weight The rails switches.
bridges. viaducts and other features
wero in conformity TO the medium
weight locomotive. 1t was discovered
th:t there was an economy in big freight
engines. hauling a large number OF cars,
and thereby doing away with train men.
1t was also discovered that the great
est source of safety in case of the inev-
liable collision was a car so solidly con-
structed that it would smash through
weaker ones.
To haul these heavy cars at high
speed required engines of increased
size. The mechanical world was sur
prised when the 70-ton locomotive was
announced. Then it went to 80. then
to 80. and there was much acclaim
when the 100-ton monster was turned
out of the shops. A passenger locomO-
tive which does not weigh 100 tons is
now considered out of date. To meet
the terrific impact Of these monsters,
the size of the rails has been slightly
increased. but we still hold them to the
ties by the primitive method of spik-
ing them down. What is the conse-
quence? The rails spread on a curve.
and sometimes on a straight piece of
track, and a disastrous wreck ensues.
Such accidents have increased at an
alarming rate.
1t is an open secret that hundreds OF
accidents are charged against mis-
read ''ripped-up switches" 1t seems
impossible to construct interlocking
switches which are safe against the
well-nigh resistless impact of 100 or
more tons of metal hurled forward at
a speed of 70 miles an hour The tracks
and switches are too weak for the loco
motives. There is no doubt in the
world about it. There is not railroad
man in the country who does not know
that this statement is absolutely true.

THEIR "MORAL SUASION."
Teachers Didn't Whip, They Had q
Better Way Of Correcting
Pupils.

The writer knows a mother who
strongly denounces corporal punish
ment, whose favorite method of punish
ment is to send her child to bed without
supper, writes William H. Handy, in
Good Housekeeping. Perhaps she thinks
the gnawing of that child's empty stom-
ach is soul punishment Another who
considers the use OF the switch relic of
bloody days, will make her little girl sit
for three hours in a straight chair.
In fact, most moral suasion is not
moral suasion, it is simply a combina
ton of everything that is not whipping.
The story is told Of small boy who
was asked by his uncle if he got whip
ping that day at school.
Nav" said the boy, .'they don't whip
at our school"
'Don't?" said the uncle, in surprise.
'How do they make you mind?'
Moral suasion,' replied the boy.

THE TRAGEDY OF BEAUTY.
Moral Muscles" Are, After All, Best
Equipment for the Battle
of Life.

One of the best-known models in the
city, disheartened by trouble, early
weighed the matter of life and death,
and deciding that the one was scarcely
worth while, calmly went to the other,
says the New York Evening Telegram.
He was still in the prime of manhood,
was exceedingly handsome, and had
an almost perfect physique"
Men less favored by nature had en-
Wed him her gifts. He was JOY to
the artists, who caught the beauty OF
line, the strength of muscle, and loved
to reproduce the firm, healthful texture
of the flesh.
The very hope of the hereafter Is
based on the idea of beauty. In it's
varied forms it is the actual JOY OF life-
Though this man possessed it it was
an impotent charm against the things
that beset him.
What was a delight to the eyes OF
others was to him so much clay shaped
by the hands of the Master Molder,
nothing more.
1t is pathetic that it was so, yet il
his character had been as finely formed
as his body. he would probably be alive
now. A perfect character has tre-
mendous power of resistance, and the
spirit Of hOpefulneSS that halOeS it
with gold so heartens one that he
never despairs.
It often happens that men and wom-
en- who possess all the externals OF
beauty are penalized by the absolute
lack of the elements that make strong
character. just as some imposing royal
bloom of California lacks perfume. On
the other hand the most beautiful char
acter may be cabined in an ugly, dis
torted body
External beauty is a possession for
which the owner is not indebted to
himself. 1t is natures endowment
nature who is so wise, yet at times so
seemingly prodigal and inconsistent.
The inner beauty which defies the
ravages of age, growing to a ripened
fulness as the years wing on, is a thing
OF careful cultivation, of constant vigil:
a growth which may be fostered amid
the unlovely surroundings of poverty
or in the velvet embraces of wealth.
Each day that We live we are char
acter building. Some lives are full
of symmetry and strength; others take
on fragile delicacy or lasting rug
ged simplicity.
Some again are full Of sharp angles
and so faultily constructed that an OBJ
server may see that the builder cannot
rear it to any great height. Some, too,
there are that never rise much higher
than their inadequate foundations.
The real strength and beauty of a
man are in his character. A man well
muscled morally is better equipped TO
fight the battle of life than he who
possesses only the prowess of Her.

STRENGTH is NOT HEALTH
An Egregious Fallacy That Is Enter
tanned by a Great Many
People.

Bulk faliacy, as we may call it, is no
ticeable when spectator praises and
enyies one set of hard local muscles.
particularly these Of the biceps, which
are not elastic and flexible, but tough
and fibrous, and, indeed, to speak accu-
rately. are not all muscle, but to
large extent are connective tissue,
which in literature We might call pad
ding, says Cassell's Physical Educator.
Those who judge by sheer bulk err, be-
cause they omit other considerations.
Where bulk helps, let there be bulk,
When it does not help. when it is not
wanted, let there be a smaller service
and better quality. Let there be al
ways power to perform. Let there be
increased health for nerves. character
and intellect. Let there be asked u
question. What viii he do with it be-
sides showing it? What good has he
gained from having developed it? Is
mere prominence of muscle Of any use
except 10 start legitimate pride in
the body? Is mere strength by itself
CT much use, except for this and few
emergencies and feats?
That strength is health is an eyre
gious fallacy. Some Of the strongest
men have died of consumption. Prof.
Dowd, the CthecreticaD authority on
physical culture, was striking. or
eight-lifting example. These have
not developed either their diaphragm
or their common sense. Even all
round athletic success is not health
The man with a deadly disease may
still be able to play a hard match ad

practice, and perhaps even to the at
traction Of the system poison to the one
diseased part.
We must judge these performers not
while they are performing. say up to
the age of So, but when they are so years
of age How suddenly do they con-
sumo! Merely to have used the mus
cles. as those and many others have,
is not enough Recently We have rea0
in the writings Of ten high authorities
that walking is perfect exercise, be-
cause it brings all the muscles into
play. For many it does not do so;
it brings muscles into drudgery. Nor
does it exercise all the muscles, for
example, after abundance of walking
practice try for a change to skate or
to play cricket for ali you are worth, or

And If .aat day Love should withdraw

Would serve to keep
The strong, the weak, the dull. the wise

Sir William McEwen. the eminent
English surgeon, has lately made an i'm

a useless organ and mystery in the
human anatomy, has very important
function in assisting digestion. 1t is,
moreover, the chief habitat Of a certain
micro-organism which is most effec-
