R0ASTS RUTLAND ROAD
Railroad Commissioners Freely Criti-
cizes Present COrditions-Iaw
should re Made ETectiyc.

Montpelier, Oct. 1S-The biennial rc-
port of the railroad commissioners made
public this afternoon is one of the most
interesting State documents issued this
year. It makes q fun exposition of the
railroad situation and abuses in YER
mont and recommends sweeping changes
and reforms Its condemnation Of the
present management Of the Rutland
railroad Is particularly severe, and it
intomates that tho safety and accom-
mediation Of tho pubic is a secondary
consideration in the operation of the
road. and further that the public
would seem TO have no rights which
the railroad company is bound to re-
spect.'
The report goes or to sat:

The method OF financing electric
railways Is severely criticised and
greater powers Of supervision are call
ed for. Attention IS called 10 the i'm
portance of abolshing grade crossings.
The condition of several branch lines

The Needles Eye.

Elias Howe almost beggared
himself before he discovered where
the eye of the needle of a sewing
machine should be located. His
original idea .5as to follow the
model of the ordinary needy and
have the eye at the heel. It never
occurred to him that it should be
placed near the point, and he
might have failed altogether if he
had not dreamed he was building
sewing machine for a savage
king in a strange country. Just as
in his actual working experience,
he was rather picked about the
needles eye. He thought the
king gave him twenty-four hours
to complete the machine and make
it sew. If not finished in that
time, death was to be the PUNISH
ment.
Howe worked and worked and
puzzled and puzzled and finally
gave it up. Then he thought he
was taken out to be executed. He
noticed that the warriors carried
spears that were pierced near the
head. Instantly came the solu-
tiou of the difficulty, and while
the inventor was begging for time,
he awoke. 1t was 4 O'Clock IN the
morning. He jumped out OF bed
ran to his workshop and by 9 a
needle with an eye at the point
had been rudely modelled. After
that it was easy. This is the true
story of an important incident IN
the invention of the sewing ma
chine.

One of the things we can do for
the good of others, and incidental
ly for our own also, is to call at
the house of friend who is i'll or
indisposed, to ask how she is, and
to inquire if there is not some way
in which v e can be of service.
One mother, whose child had a
tedious illness, said she did not
know how she could have kept
strong and hopeful had it not been
for the kindness of her neighbors
and friends.
Often, when her heart would al
most fail within her, some kind
mother or interested father or a
bright young girl would stop, just
a moment to ask after that dear
little man.
The SICK child, too, was pleased
b. the attentions, for he, like all
his fellow beings, loves to be loved.

Qualities Unlike in the Sexes.

A man is man down to his
thumbs and woman is a woman
down to her little toes, writes
DR.. Havelick Ellis in his book
Men and Women" There is
hardly a measurable quality of
any sort which is not unlike in the
two sexes. Women even button
their garments on the other side
from that chosen by men and
choose Sunday instead of Monday
as their favorite day for making
way with themselves. So far as
laboratory tests go, DIR. Ellis says
that women are unqueStionably
superior in general tactile Sensibili
ty and probably superior in the
discrimination of tastes, with no
advantage either way in the case
of tue other senses. Women have
better memories, read more rapid
ly, bear pain better, recover bet
ter from wounds and serious illness,
are less changed by old age and
live longer.

The woodcock, the partridge and
some others are said to be able to

able skill. A naturalist observes
that he has shot several woodcock

previously received. In every
instance he found the injury neatly
dressed with down plucked from
the stems of feathers and skillfully
arranged over the wound, evidently
