PASSING OF THE WOOD TIE.
Immense Drain on Timber Is Abat-
ing Since Steel Has Been
introduced.

The friends of the forest may be graft
fed by the cessation of great drain
upon timber through the cessation of
it's use as crossties for railways. With
an average of $500 to the mile, Amer
lean roads consume 100000 ties per
annum. AS the yield is two ties to the
tree, 100000 trees are consumed an
nually for this purpose. The average
life of wood tie is eight years. The
steel tie is now coming into use. They
weigh 13 to the ton and cost 81 apiece.
But their life is Is years, SO that in the
end, they cost no more than wood tie
that has to be relaid three times in
that period. To replace wood with steel
on American railways would require
100000 tons of steel, without count
ing in the electric, cable, elevated and
horse street roads of the country.
The use of structural iron and steel
in building in place of the wooden frame
has greatly economical the timber of
the country, though this economy Is,
unfortunately, offset by the insatiate
wood pulp mill. With steel ties on our
railroads and the substitution of some
annual crop for paper pulp, our forests
would stand some chance for their lives.
1t is not yet settled that steel will serve
the purpose of wood for ties for lack If
f1exibility. The wood tie bends and re-
covers it's lines. This prevents the hard
hammering that shakes apart the joints
of cars and increases the wear of wheels.
Only use can determine whether steel
will do. The Pennsylvania road has
already put steel on important parts
of its track, and if it be approved by
that road its use will soon become gen.
eral and the section gang will be re-
lieved of much of the work heretofore
required of it. If it be found fit, it's use
will give great impulse to the pro-
duction of steel, the material for ties.

No Depot Matrons In New York.
"New York may be all right" said an
art student from Memphis, "but it. GER

some organization to look out for the

rive. New York is so much in hurry
that it hasn't time for that sort of
thing, perhaps, but it is very homelike
to find somebody who is sympathetic
cally interested in the stranger. In va
rious waiting rooms throughout Ten

THE SIGNATURE WAS GOOD
Railway Superintendent Who Was.
Not Noted for Excellent
Penmanship. 8

A story is told of how the late ex-
Gov. Joseph A. Gilmore, OF New
Hampshire, when he was superintend-
road. once wrote letter to one of his
section bosses who had done some
thing to displease him. All the man
could make out was the date and
Superintendent Gilmore's signature.
Some time afterward, relates the
Boston Herald, being in Concord, the
man went to call on the superintend-
ent at his office. nj
Hello, John, how do you do?' said
Mr.. Gilmore. Well, what are you do
ing now?"t
why, I'm up here at the same
place on the section, Mr.. Gilmore re-
piled John. tY ~ ri

it out, except that it was from head
quarters and signed by you, sir. But
after some study / concluded it was

the road could read it, they all ac-

John kept his place on the section.

Three FACTS.
For Sick Women
To Consider

F1Rsr.-That almost every operation
in oar hospitals performed upon women
becomes necessary through neglect of
such symptoms as backache, irregular
and painful periods. displacements
of the female organs, pain in the side.
burning sensation in the stomach,
bearing down pains, nervousness, dig.
ziness and sleeplessness.
SEcoND.-The medicine that holds
the record for the largest number of
absolute cures Of female ills is Lydia
E. Pinkhan1's Vegetable Compound
1t regulates, strengthens and cures
diseases of the female organism as
nothing else can.
For thirty years it hes been helping
women to be strong, curing backache,
nervousness, kidney troubles, inf1an-
nation of the female organs. weak
ness and displacements, regulating
the periods perfectly and overcoming
their pains. 1t has also proved itself
invaluable in preparing women for
childbirth and the change of life.
TEIRD.-The great volume of unso-
Ecited and grateful testimonials on file
at the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, many of which are from time to
time published by permission, give alb
z. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and
Mrs. Pinkhams advice.

twenty-five years under her direction
and since her deceasc she has been adj
visinC sick women free ofcharge. Outof
the vast volume Of experience in treat
ing female ills Mrs. Pinlha.7a probably
has the very knowledge that will help

roor, il very foolish if She doesnot take
advantage of this generous offer Of

Jules Verne Hall, the famous globe

agreement means a loss Of $4,000
posted as . forfeit.
Twice during the last four days
has Hall been within an ace of losing.
On Wednesday night while absent
mindedly gazing across the sage brush
an enemy carelessly inquired: Will
you have drink?'
"The woId Yes was on his lips,
when Hall with a powerful effort re-
strained himself and merely nodded
assent. Then an argument was start
ed as to the relative merits Of the Eng
lish and Russian navies. Hall is q
native of the British Isles and when
everyone present agreed that Rojest-
vensky could have defeated the Eng

until he grew red in the face.

could not escape, so to save his $$2,500
