The pier mirror, which was the de-
light OF a generation or two ago, is not
so much in evidence these days, al.
though every woman who has ever
had access to one Of these full length

it is to be able to see how ones clothes

New York, Aug. S0.-The prelimi-
nary statement of the Erie Railroad
for the fiscal year ended June goth,
1906, made public to-day, shows gross
earnings Of over $5O,O00,000, an in
creare over the previous year of $4,-
277,OOO, and an increase in net of
s1.547, 900.
OF the increase in working expenses,
$2,730,000, an expenditure of more
than one million dollars was in main
tenance of the roadway, which was
given an unusually liberal allowance
of new steel rail and ties. Operating
expenses during the same period had
an additional charge of $1,000,000, in
rehabilitating the equipment, the re-
suit being that the power has been
placed in an excellent condition for
increased business. The additional
expenditures in the improvement Of
the roadway and equipment are mani
testify in the right direction and are a
direct addition to the assets Of the
Company.
Not the least interesting showing is
that the Company incurred an addi-
tional expense Of only 100000, in con-
Quoting the transportation Of over
$4,000, 900, additional gross earnings.
This is a further indication that the
improvements which have been COM
pleted are producing the desired re-
suits in lessening the cost of transpor-
tation. About 100000 Of the Com
pany's income was used for further
improvements Of the property during
the year, an increase Of $566,000 over
the previous year.
The Company is now better pre-
pared to handle a largely increased
business than ever before in its his
tory.

- Az ~ Iaah.

We are wont to speak Of this era
as the "age OF iron" and there is no
gainsaying that, industrially speaking,
iron is precious metal"
Nevertheless, few people realize
how useful, II not absolutely neces-
sary, to modern civilization, is that
other metal, lead. Soft, yielding,
pliable, It is not much like it's sister
metal, but those distinguishing quail
ties are what give It such a prominent
place in the arts and industries.
Modern plumbing, requiring many
turnings and twistings, but withal
tight joints, would be almost impos-
sible without lead pipe. The great
est civillzing agent in the world---the
printing art-is absolutely dependent
on lead. Hand-set type, linotype
"slugs," monotype type all are
made Of compositions of which lead
is the chief component-to say moth
ing of the bearings in the presses as
we'll as all other kinds Of machinery
in which "babbitt" metal is used.
Solder is another lead product
what a field Of usefulness that one
form opens up.
Then there is the most important
use Of all to which lead is put--paint,
that necessary material which keeps
our houses looking pretty - inside
and out-and preserves them from
decay.
How many Of US thank metallic lead
for the comforts of paint? Yet the
best house paint is nothing but me-
tallic lead corroded by acid to a white
powder known as white lead" OF
course, there are many limitations Of
white lead" some of which are sold
as white lead and some which are
offered by the name of ready-pre-
pared paint under the familiar pre-
tense that they are lust as good" as
white lead. But all good paint is
made of the metal, lead, corroded and
ground to a fine white powder and
mixed with linseed oil.
White lead is also used in the coat
ing of fine oil cloths and for many
purposes besides paint.
RED lead" is another product OF
metallic lead and is what is known as
an oxide of lead, being produced by
burning the metal. Red lead is the
best paint known to preserve iron,
steel or tin, and is used largely in
painting metal structures, such as
skyscraper skeletons, mills and
bridges.
There are many other products Of
the metal lead, such as litharge,
orange mineral, etc., which are es-
sential to many of the arts in which
we never imagine that lead would be
of the least use.
Verify, we live in an age of lead
as we'll as of iron.

His Scheme Worked.

1t is related that certain man was
recently very sad because his wife
had gone out of town on a visit,
which she would not shorten in spite
of his appeals to her to come home.
He finally hit upon a plan to induce
her to return. He sent her a copy of
each of the local papers with one item
clipped out, and when she wrote to
find out what it was he had clipped
out he refused to tell her
The scheme worked admirably! In

cure Of Nervous HabIts In chIIdren.

Cure Of Nervous Habits In Children.
Curing the nervous habits or
tricks" of children is one Of the most
insistent problems facing parents.
The problem is made particularly diff
ficult because the habits come so
quietly that we find them established
before, we have really noticed them.
Some habits are caused by disordered
nerves, and in such case the doctor
must be consulted. Twitching of the
face Or limbs, opening of the mouth,
blinking of the eyes, hesitation Of
speech, are all indications that some
thing is wrong, and no child must be
punished for them. Indeed, mere pun
ishment never does any good either to
the tricks dependent on bad health or
on those of imitation. Defective sight
is the cause of many so-called tricks.
A child whose vision is faulty screws
up his eyes or scowls in his efforts to
adapt his powers of sight. In such a
case an optician or oculist should be
called in and the sight tested A bad
habit is simply repeated action, and 1t
Is only by persistently stopping 1t
that one can hope to eradicate it.
