THE FARMERsl TELEPHONE.
Uses to which 1t is Put In Some Part
of the Country

Uses to which Ii is Put In Some Parts
of the Country.
Sore amusing stories of the new uses to
which t e telephone is put in Iowa are
told in the April World Work. A few OF
them follow:
Nearly every day some one invents OF
discovers new use for it. One day the
girl at "central" received this message
"Heilol Say, Central, have put the
receiver of the phone in the baby's cradle,
and il she wakes up and cries, call me UP
at number seventy-one"
1t must have been an unusually absent
minded woman who sent in the message
"oh, Centrall Ring me up in fifteen min
utes, so that / won't forget to take the
bread out Of the oven.n
II some one finds it necessary to take a
night train, the operator at the exchange
will receive some such message as this
"Central, ring me up half an hour be-
fore the PIT train in the morning See il
it's late before you call me, please"
Go into the exchange during 'srush
period"-say, at nine o'clock in the morn
ing and you will see the telephone girl
stand up, push her chair into a corner, and
''throw" the plugs with which connections
are made as fast as her arms can fly for an
hour at stretch. All she will have time
to say to you will be: "Every woman in
town is ordering things for dinner"
There are about thirty subscribers who
are called regularly every morning by the
telephone instead Of by an alarm clock.
The central" girl is supposed to know
the time of all railway trains, and If a
train happens to be late, how many min
utes behind time. She is often asked the
time of day, because some one has let the
clock run down. When there is an alarm
of fire, 'central' is supposed to know
where it is. The exchange is just across
the street from the re-house, and fire
alarms are often telephoned into the
saving of valuable time.
Toward the end of long, cold drive on
raw autumn day was met at the gate
by farmer friend, with tie wor Is /: .sCome
right in. The wife has some hot coffee
ready for you. We knew you were COM
ing. Miss Rankin seen you go by, and
she just telephoned to u.s."
Sometimes the rural telephone has been
used to stop travellers less willing to be
stopped. There are sections where chicken
stealing has become lost art, because the
rural telephones make it possible to
block every avenue Of escape as soon as
the crime is discovered. Many industrious
chicken thieves, and some bold offenders,
have been caught ''red-handed" through
telephone messages which have PROMPTED
farmers to meet the malefactors with shot
guns on the highway.

which had been in operation only a few

The Tramp That Had to Take Water.

A locomotive when taking water
from a track tank looks as il it was 60
ing through a river. The water Is dash
ed into spray and flies out on either
side like the waves before fast boat.
Tralnmen tell the story of tramp who
stole ride on the front or dead" end
platform of the baggage car of fast
train. This car was coupled to the rear
end of the engine tender. 1t was quite
long run, without stops. and the en-
CINE took water from a track tank on
the way. When the train stopped the
tramp was discovered prone on the
platform of the baggage car, half
drowned from the water thrown back
when the engine took its drink on the
run.
Here, get OFF, growled the brake
man. What are you doing there?"

THE TERM "IDIOT. J"
IN the Original Greek II simply
Meant u Private Person.

The word idiot Is itself of interesting
history. Its primary Greek significance
was that of a private as distinguished
from public person. Our words
idiom, idiosyncrasy, etc, are from the
same root. The idiot in Greek was sim
ply one no. engaged in public affairs.
The beginnings of the degradation of
the word are shown in its application
soon to the common people as distin-
guished from the upper classes. 1t was
then applied to unprofessional and lay
people and soon became the slurring
title of the unskillful and awkward.
By slow degrees 1t became applicable
to the stupid and at last TO the imbe-
Gle and idiot. As late as the sixteenth
and seventeenth centuries the word
was still used in its earlier senses. This
long sad history speaks indirectly of
the pathetic history of the iIhbecile, If
he was not killed or starved to death
by neglect, etc, he was usually reduced
to the condition of beast either about
the house or fields or was actually
driven into the woods and forced to live
in caves, among wild animals, etc. In
1909 Itard took wild boy" found in
the forests of Aveyron and tried to
teach him, The ability of the wild
boys and wolf children 10 live ana the
number that did so shows that idiocy,
as we have later learned, is of all de
grees and that mind may be various
ly defective in some ways, even idiotic,
but in others with capabilities well pre-
served Blind Tom, the pianist, and
the large number of mathematic idiots
are examples that show how far we
are from understanding the real nature
of idiocy, aud they more than suggest
the partial retention of sound mentality
of the defective, the possibility of seiz-
ing upon the one or few normal or even
highly developed faculties and per-
haps bringing others into coordination
with them and to normality. The court
fools and testers Of the olden times
were often such partial idiots and de-
fectives, and they truly lived upon
their wits" which were often better
than those Of their masters.-American

FACTS IN RAILROAD
HISTORY.


The first steam railroad in opera
ton was used by the Delaware &
Hudson Canal company in 1929. to
carry coal from its mines to the canal
for shipment to New York. The track
was sixteen miles long. The rails
were Of rolled iron +x2A inches, were
spiked, broadside down, to hemlock
Joists, laid on cross ties ten feet apart.
The engine in it's trial trip made ten
miles an hour.
The Baltimore & Ohio road was the
first American road to organize on an
extensive system. Begun in 1928, it
had in 1885 a track mileage OF lis
miles.
The first trains between New York
and Philadelphia ran on the Camden
& Amboy, which road was begun in
1882 and completed in 1887, and Ia
now part of the Pennsylvania rail-
road system.
The Pennsylvania was chartered in
1916. Construction was begun in the
following year and the road was
opened in 1854. Trains to Chicago
were first run over this road in 1858, a
fact which lends added interest to the
present triumph over distance and
time in the 1S-hour schedule between
New York and Chicago.

some way hia hand struck the hammer,
causing the weapon to explode. In a
second my friend turned deathly pale
and became so agitated that he could
scarcely speak.
Having noticed that the bullet
struck a rug and took a downward
course, l didn't see any cause for ex-
element and. lifting up the rug, show
ed him where the lead took Judgment.
He became calm pretty soon, and then
he explained his agitation. Had that
bullet gone into the court (all the ho-
tells down there open into a COURT in
