The question of How to be happy

often and at length by those interested
in the intrlcacies Of social science.
Mrs. Hawkins has definite ideas OH the
subject and airs them In an English
paper. Her point of view may be
new, and therefore instructive, to
many.
Where did you get that dreadful

East End visitor, as she seated her
self on the extreme edge of the least
dirty chair in the room.

sable InInnd wild Horses.

Sable Island, which lies about
eighty miles to the eastward OF Nova
Scotia, consists OF an accumulation
Of loose sand, forming a pair Of ridges
united at the two ends and inclosing
d shallow lake; tracts Of grass are to
be met with In places, as well as pools
Of fresh water.
The droyes OF wild horses, or ponies,
and herds Of seals appear to be the
chief mammalian inhabitants OF the
island. 1t is generally supposed that
the original stock was landed from a
Spanish wreck early in the sixteenth
century, although some writers make
the Introduction much later.
Twenty-Five years ago the number
OF ponies was estimated at 500; al
the present day there are less than
200, divided into five troops.
Not more than. two-thirds OF these
are pure bred. the remainder being
the offspring OF mares crossed with
introduced stations.
The author comments on the strik
ing likeness OF these Wild ponies t.

There is a Philadelphia, having a
summer home near Cape Cod, who
takes great pride in his cranberry
meadow. On one occasion this gentle
man was entertaining an Englishman
at dinner when the latter partook for
the first time in his life of the dellcacy
known as cranberry sauce" He was
delighted with It. Indeed, so much
and so often did he express pleasure
that, when he had returned to Lon
don, the Philadelphia sent him a bar
rel of the finest Cape Cod cranberries.
A month or so passed, and then there
came a letter of acknowledgment from
the Briton.

he, among other things, ''to send me

CAR WHEELS AND CURVES.

Scientific American Answers Questions
Regarding Them.
one OF the questions from CORE
spOndents that comes to this Office
with persistent reiteration is that of
the possibility of one or the other Of
the pair Of wheels on a railroad axle,
in passing around the curve, slipping
on the rail over which 1t Is rolling,
while the other wheel does not slip
on its rail, says the Scientific Ameri-
can. Although we have frequently ex-
planned how this condition Is possible,
the question is one that evidently
continues to puzzle great many
people-in which respect it is first
cousin to that other much-de-
bated fact, that the portion of
the periphery Of a rolling cart
wheel that Is near the ground is NOV
ing more slowly with relation to the
earth than Is the rest of the periphery.
In the case of the two wheels on any
axle Of railroad or trolley car that
is passing around a curve 1t is evident
that In a given length, say 100 feet Of
the curve, measured on line lying
centrally between the two rails. the
inner rail will be shorter than the
outer rail. and this for the reason that
it is struck to a radius that is about
four and three-quarters feet shorter.
Now, when a pair of wheels passes
around the curve 1t follows that, be-
cause of the difference in length Of
the two rails, either the inner wheel
must slip backward on the inner rail
or the outer wheel slip forward on the
outer rail, for the two wheels being
fixed on the same axle, move at the
same perlpheral speed over different
lengths of rail in the same time.
1t is probable that the excessive
wear Of the rails on curves is due
chiefly to the slipping of the wheels.
Not long ago some remarkable facts
on rail wear on curves were brought
out In the course Of a paper read be-
fore the New England Street Railway
Club by the roadmaster of the Boston
elevated road The road is exceeding
~ crooked. over 40 per cent of the line
consisting Of curves, many of which
are very sharp. There are eighteen of
less than 100-foot radius and sixteen
others with radius of less than 15C
feet. On the sharpest curve, which Is
OF only Sz-foUt rauius anu where II II
claimed that the traffic Is heavier thar
that on any other steam or heavy cleo
trio railroad. the life of ordinary stee
rails averages only forty-four days. the
head of the rail wearing down from
0.G0 to OF Of an inch I'm that time
The great Inconvenience caused by the
constantly recurring repairs led the
company to experiment with hardened
steel rails and when some nickel stee
rails were put in on the curves the
wear was reduced to O.53 of an incl
in 20i days. A manganese steel raj
Is now being used with good result,
and the wear OF these is only about 3;
per cent as rapid as that OF the nicke
steel rail and about per cent as raplt
as that of the carbon steel rails.

The annual distribution Of vegetable
and flower seeds by the Department
of Agriculture will begin soon, and be-
fore planting time it is expected the
entire amount, aggregating 3S,OOO,OO0
packages, will be in the hands of the
people in all sections of the country.
Congress for several years has appro-
priated S29O,OO0 for this purpose, but
a portion of the amount Is used for
foreign experiment work. Most of the
packages are subject to the order of
Senators and Representative for dis
tribution among their constituents, the
Secretary of Agriculture reserving one
fifth of the entire amount to supply the
statistieal CROP correspondents, the
weather bureau and for other pur-
poses.

but she believed enough Of il was true
to Justify her in giving Jack an oppor-

not worry her father, but would act for
