More steam Engines Used Now Than
Ever Before.

Ever Before.
The use of the steam engine is in
creasinG faster to-day than ever before.
Many mammoth industrial plants are
exclusively engaged in building steam
boilers and engines, and it is the proud
boas CT one of these. the \ las Engine
Works, of indianapolis, that ii aver
ages q complete boiler and engine outfit
of fifty horsepower every thirty min
utes of the working day.
When the visitor to their plant has
gone through two or three OF their
great warehouses. and energies upon
boiler yard Of twenty acres. he won
ders where upon earth use can be
found for all the boilers and engines.
But, if he will watch the loading
process, he will see some ten or twelve
trainloads per day go out, labeled for
destinations all over the world. and
will gain some notion Of the magnitude
of the worlds work. Then, when he is
told that this one concern, leyiathan Of
the trade though it is, does not produce
ten per cent. Of the worlds output Of
steam boilers and engines, he will be-
gin to realize how vast is the prOduc-
ton and consumption Of steam power
throughout the world.
The product of this one plant, which
builds every type and size of horizontal
steam engine. affords an interesting
study OF mechanical evolution. The
balanced slide-valve. the shaft gov
ernor. the rotating, or Corliss valves.
! self-oIiing devices, compound cylinders
and direct connected shafts are only
the more visible improvements. The
| built-up connecting rod. the removable
| bearings. improved piston construction,
| stronger and lighter designs of bed
more intelligent designing Of all recip'
| rOcating parts, better selection Of ma
| terialS and more accurate workman
| ship throughout are some Of the things
that differentiate the engine of to-day
from that Of half century ago.
The changes in boiler construction
have not been so numerous, but they
have been quite as marked. In the out
put of this one concern can be found
every size ard type of boiler, from the
little horizontal tubular Of fifteer
horse power, to the new Atlas water
tube. which purifles its own water
| superheatS its own steam and gives tht
highest efficiency yet accomplished il
boiler construction.

WORST FORM OF ECZEMA
Black Splotcies All Over Face-Ahected
Parts Now Clear as EVer-Cured by
the Cuticura Remedies.

"About four years ago / was afflicted
with black splotches all over my face and
a few covering my body, which produced
a severe itching irritation, and which
caused me great deal of annoyance and
suffering, to such an extent that l was
forced to call in two of the leading ply
sicians of my town. After :. thorough ex-
animation of the dreaded complaint they
announced it to be skin eczema in its
worst form. They treated me for the
same for .he length of one year, but the
treatment did me no good. Finally my

sOUNDNEss IN MARKET HORSES.

SOUNDNESS IN MARKET HORSES.
Perhaps the first and most important
essential in a market horse is sound
ness. 1t is absolutely useless to expect
to sell horse that is unsound for
good price on any critical market. In
soundnesses that are most common are
those of the limbs and the respiratory
organs. A marketable horse should
not have a splint so high up on the
leg that it interferes with the articu-
lation Of the knee joint. A splint
may be small and low down and not
seriously affect the selling price of the
animal. Understand, however, that
where you have to consider the high
est type of equine beauty you want
to avoid blemishes, just as much as
possible. A splint at best is blemish,
and naturally will result in a discriml-
nation being made against horse pos
sessing one when he is sold. With
light horses, everything that is an
offense to the eye must be avoided
The more beautiful a horse is. other
things considered, the higher he is
going to sell. There must be no ring,
bone, no side-bone or other unsound.

ViviSection of Mother
Tongue Raises a Howl
in Staid Old Eng
land.
PRESIDENT PREMATURE,
SAY THE SCHOLARS
Proposed Change in English
OrthOgraphy Meets With
a Storm of Dis
approval.

LONDON, Aug. 25.-England is to
the front today with a howl against
President Roosevelts radical spell
ing reform. While there is some OBJ
lection to the vivisection Of the
mother tongue as well as consider
able praise of the reform, the com
plant voiced on all sides Of the land
is that the President acted too sud
denly and without taking his cousin
John Bull into consultation, not
withstanding the fact that it was
the latter who contributed the
language that is being operated up
on.
Too Much for Englishmen.
The strenuous tactics of the
American President in knocking ont
with one punch the very backbone
of the language is too much for CON
servative Englishmen, who say that
he has violated all the traditions
and sacred history of the language.
They point 10 the slow evolution of
the language to its present form
and say that IT is entitled to more
feeling treatment.
Some Of the newspapers deal with the
subject humor0usly and poke fun al the
President in unveiled language. The
papers that take the matter as worthy
OF serious consideration express little
sympathy with what they term the
Carnegie jarEon." The opinion IS ex-
pressed that scholarly and cultured
Americans viii refuse TO accept the pro-
posed changes. The Standard declares
that President Roosevelt overrates his
powers II he believes he can carry
through the reform In spelling and make
the changes general.
The Chronicle has shown the most
sympathy with some Of the proposed
changes II saws editoriaIly: Whether
we Ike the new spelling or not il prob
ably Will be forced upon US. because the
United States is coming more and more
into control Of the printing presses OF
the English-speaking forld.
May Become Dominant.
'If President Roosevelt can establish
uniformity of spelling in America on
the lines he prescribes. the new spelling
will be likely before long TO become
dominant in Great Britain also, but as
he is strong he might have been merci-
fuI and summoned an Alglo-Americau
congress to endeavor to arrive at an
agreement on a common mode of SPELL
ing. so that the Presidents English and
the Kings English should be the same.
The Chronicle has started a sympos-
ium 20 learn what the sentiment Of the
scholars IN all English-speaking com
munties. including the colonies. is
toward the simplified spelling. II this
symposium shows that a majority OF
scholars really favor the phonetic SPELL
ing style, the suggestion for an Anglo
American congress TO revise the English
orthography will probably be seriously
advocated.
