blood had founded and built up the
noble structure, had been resorted
to by the South and her sympathiz.

The victory which crowned the
banners OF the North did not bring
joy unmingled with grief. Thousands
of homes in all sections of our land
were left desoIate mourning. But
the result of that conflict meant that
the principles for which the South
had so strenuously %contended were
dead and buried and that this Nation
should ever afterward remain one.

The best time for taking a cold bath
for tonic effect is just after getting

One not accustomed to cold bathing
should begin carefully with water not
colder than rs deg. +. The bath should

OoubIe-Trscking the 6 nta Fe.

It would be a colossal undertaking to
double track the Santa Fe all the way
from Chicago to California and the
Gulf of Mexico.
To seriously suggest 1t now would
provoke smile from men who know
the cost Of such project.
Yet 1t may happen some day. II bust
ness continues to increase as rapidly
as in the last decade.
This plan of two tracks from the
Great Lakes to Pacific Ocean does not
necessarily imply that the tracks will
be laid side by side. In many cases
cut-offs will be used. thus saving in
mileage as well as train operation.
Using the term in its restricted
sense, by the end of 1905 the Santa Fe
will have more than 800 miles of dou
BILE track in operation. Second tracks
are now being built as follows: To fin
ish the gap between Chicago and Joli
ct; between several points in Missouri
aggreGating AZ miles; to complete the
Emporia cutoff; east, west and south
of Newton, in Kansas. and on both
sides of Ration Mountain, in Colorado

Marvellous Toy Cannon.

Prof. William Suddards Franklin,
head of the department of physics at
Lehigh University. is said to have in
vented harmless toy cannon designed
to take the place of the deadly cast
iron affair filled with gunpowder and
which reaps a rich harvest of victims
every Fourth of July. BY applying a
well-known principle of chemistry he
has produced a cannon which makes
a report, but cannot explode; hurlS
missiles which can do no harm, and is
flash of fire which does not scorch
tissue paper.
The explosion is caused by an cleo
trio spark igniting a combination Of
air and gas, somewhat on the principle
of gas engine. This discharges a
cork. no other missile will do. and pro-
duces a flame of SO low temperature
that it does not burn. Furthermore,
it is said, 5000 shots can be fired for
a nickel
