that happened to friend Of mine in the

"No; the strangest part Is to come.
When he went home in the evening he
found that his youngest brother had elop-

Louis. 1t had taken place, too. at the ex-
act moment when he heard the voice. How
do you explain that, I'd like TO know
Was it telepathy? Or what was it?"

'The man himself-Ike Stringham."

The new administration and iobbing
house building erected by the W. l..
Douglas Shoe Co. as a part OF its NAM
moth manufacturing plant In Brockton,
Mass, was dedicated June 10. The
program included open house from IL
In the morning until in the evening.
There was musical program and re-
freshments were served all day. Fir
teen thousand invitations were sent out
including over IL 900 retail dealers in
the United States who handled the W.
L. Douglas shoes. Mr.. Douglas says
that his three large factories, also the
new building just dedicated, will al
ways be open to inspection and visitors
from everywhere will be welcome.
The new jobbing house just dedicat-
ed will enable hurry orders for Douglas
shoes to be shipped the same day they
are received. The new building Is 260
feet long, 90 feet wide and two stories
high. The jobbing department occu-
pies the entire lower floor and the new
Offices Of the Douglas Shoe company oc-
cupy the entire second floor. In the
new building there will be special Offices
occupied by the Western Union and
Postal Telegraph companies; also by
the telephone companies and there is
an elaborate mailing department. The
completion OF this new administration
building marks the establishment Of q
modern, up.to-dste Wholesale iobbipg
house and Office building.
Mr.. Douglas has long considered the
advisability Of q jobbing house, not
only for the purpose Of supplying his
own retail stores more readily, but that
the 1900 dealers throughout the
United States handling the w. L.
Douglas shoes might be able to obtain
ahoes for immediate use with greater
facility.
The new building is said TO be the
most complete and convenient Of any
ever built for commercial house In
the United States. 90 were the express

MINUTE MEASUREMENTS.
Apparatus that Measures One-sev-

enty-MiIlionth of an Inch.
DIR. p. Il. Shaw, OF the University
College, Nottingham, England, after
Eve years labor, has completed an ap-
paratus making 1t possible to measure
ne-seventy-milliont part of an inch,
says the New York Post. Consul Ma
hin writes that the invention consists
of very fine micrometer screw and
a series of six levers acting In con-
junction with 1t which must be sus-
pended by rubber bands from a spe-
cially made frame and inclosed In a
box. The frame is placed in vault
under the university and surrounded
with every safeguard against friction
and vibration, "but even them" says
DIR. Shaw, 1T is impossible to carry
out experiments to be successful while
there is traffic In the streets. Every
factory, too, where motive power Ia EN-.
ployed must be closed, even II It Is
some distance away" Even a draft is
said to be fatal to the successful meas
urement Of such minute quantities as
one-seventy-milllonth part Of an inch.
Dust must also be kept from the vault,
and It is said that even the buzzing
Of an ordinary fly has. made 1t neces-
sary to suspend experiments till the
insect had been disposed Of.
The apparatus, 1t Is claimed, could
be made specially serviceable in meas
rring engineering gauges. 1t Is broad
