now m fop loads up. Grease for the wheels is the only expense or the railroad.
 Hardly ten years ago the only use made of rivers was to run the old- fashioned mill wheel. which can now seldom be seen outside Of picture gal leries. Its place has been taken by powerful generating plants that have harnessed the river so that 1t does something more useful than just drift down from the mountains to the sea.
 There is somc dispute as to who first thought of using waterfalls for gener- ating power. An Englishman claims the distinction, and it came, like most inventions accidently. This English man was standing under a barrell full of water, when the bottom dropped out. The force of the blow knocked him over. Being a thoughtful man, he re- asoned that if a barrel of water could knock him over, a river full could do wonders.
 But whether the Enblishman claims the credit or not the idea is now In full swing at dozens of waterfalls. Huge wheels are placed under these falls so that the fall of the water makes them revolve with tremendous speed, and these wheels are connected with generators which store up the power and supply 1t to all who want to buy.
 There have been numerous devices for harnessing the tides. but none as yet have been eminentiy successful. Several schemes have been patented for using the power of waves, but they have usually met with sad ending. Some years ago Ocean Grove sprinkled her streets with water that was pump ed by one of these wave machines. but its life of usefulness was cut short by a wave that was more powerful than the machine.
 The latest scientific use of water for the plunger type of the elevator engin- eers say will make the 50-story sky scraper possible, and incidentally brings out one of the prettiest of water devices. To the. bottom of the elevator car Is attached steel column equal to length to the run of the elevator. which runs up and down a chaft in the earth. At the bottom of this shaft are two pipes, one for supplying water and the other for drawing it off. As the water is poured into this shaft the steel rod rises, pushing the elevator upward. When the desired story has been reached the operator in the car moves the handle, which instantly checks the flow, and the car rests upon the body of water in the shaft.

 His talk recalled to me an educa- tion parable I once read, which i'm pressed me very deeply: The animals once upon a time decided to establish an Academy The curriculum was to be very thorough and very strictly carried out. Each student must learn to climb, to run, and to swim and must do each of these exercises at an ex- actly prescribed rate, the duck com
 pIained that her legs were not adapted
 for running; but she was told that this
 was no matter; the less natural capa-
 city she had for any part or the course, the more necessary 1t was that she should practice it. So poor little duck was made to run until she forgot how to swim.
 The eagle protested that he could not possibly climb like the monkey but she could get there all the same,
 He was told that getting there was not all the aim, but must get there in a certain way, and only in that way. So he received very bad mark and | low standing. An ell who could do all the prescribed d
 exercises after fashion. was promot- | cd 10 the head of the school and deliV- cred the valedictory.

 Water can be made to do the most neculiar things when it Is properly hitched up.

Tishomingo, I. T., June S.--Is any man in Oklahoma looking for wife who has property? If so, look up to train schedule and buy tickets for the Chickasaw nation. There are a, lot of nice young Chickasaw girls down here who have banded together and taken solemn oath to marry only white man.
 Only those who know how to plant corn and are handy with a COW need apply. Trifiers looking for rich widows and nothing to do but to take the goldfish out for a walk and watch the butler open bottles need not write.
 These Chickassw girls are in solemn earnest. They have sent out circular letters which have beenY distributed broadcast throughout the country to agricultural schools The first one was received by President Winstone of the State Agricultural school at Charlotte, |N. C. President Winstone read the let ter to his students and 1t was received with tumultuous cheering. The letter was signed by 12 young Indian girls of the Chickasaw nation. Here's the very note: here is what they wrote:
 we, the 12 girls whose names are signed to this letter, are members or the Chickasaw Indian tribe. Under recent act of Congress we have been allotted good farms, in the Chfckasaw nation. We have been educated in the common branches and in househoio work and domestic economy as well. want White Husbands.
 eve twelve have banded together and promise each other to marry worthy men and those who will be con- tented to live on our properties ana develop them For that reason we are sending this letter to the students or agricultural schools.
 "Our lands are rich and fertile and under proper management will become valuable properties. AS TOT ourseives' hans better than, the average white yirl in those essentials that go to the making of good wives and housekeep- ers.' .,a+, uo, for the Chickasaw Nation! There's a wife and a nice farm happy littie horne already. Chickasaw Indian giris are good looking too. They have DIE

black eyes and glossy black hair. and they can sweep and wash and iron and make husbands trousers and do plain ana fancy cooking and hitch up the horse and harvest the egg crop and even cut grass and haul water.
 Altogether this opportunity ought to look good to the right persons.
 The Chickasaw girls do not chew gum or wear picture hats, or buy tall or-made gowns, or put up a warwhoop for restaurant and $5 worth of rare- bit and trimmings after the theatre. Neither do they sit up nights worrying about giving bigger patry than Mrs Young Man Whos-ays Boo-to-the Rat tlesnake.
 Girls Furnish the Homes.
 The sole ambition of these young Csickasaw women as outlined in their letter is to have happy home. And young man has to carry down is the happiness. The Chickasaw girls. how ever, in sending their letters to the agricultural college showed that they were not animated by the sole desire of acquiring husbands. They want men who can do things, and especially do things to bunch of unimproved Government land.
 These Chicgasaw girls have the pride of their race. The Chickasaws are the most advanced in civilization of all the Indian tribes. The last blanket Indian disappeared from their raj ks generations ago. They are very w0dlthy as a people and have pros porous towns and cities.
 Many Chickasaw families count their wealth up in the six figures and some of the girls who have signed the letter to the agricultural schools are worth over and s5o,ooo besides their Government lands and the money they will acquire by future inheritance.

Port Arthur, Ontario. June 15.-The Builders of Temiskaming and North orn Ontario Railway uncovered Cobalt, almost with a single stroke of the pick, and now, after three years of pros- pecting and development work. we are coming to the larger and moro va ried. and, probably more permanent riches of that part of the wilderness that lies immediately west of Lake Superior and north of the/internation- al boundary, which are being developed along the line of the new Transconti- mental Railway.
 Generally speaking, the locating en- gineer follows the ancient trails into the wilderness, that, until yesterday, lay between the Great Lakes and Win nipeg, just as the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe follows the Old santa Fe Trail across the American Southwest There the iron trail has been open and In operation thirty years. There a stage line had been abandoned for lack Of support. Here. until the advent of the railway, there was never dream of anything so extravagant as stage line. In both cases there was no bus Illness to support a railway until rail- way came. conquered the wilderness and created the business.
 For ashundred and fifty years the moccasins of the lone priest, of the pathfinder ,and of the explorer have dimpled the margins of the Muskegs of this northern wilderness. and all this while the riches of nature lay within easy reach of all. Only, there was lacking the one thing, the first essential to civilization--transpo tfon. Production without transporta- ton is often impossible. and always unprofitable. Consequently, the iron, the copper gold and other riches of this lake region lay where generous providence had placed them. The for ests choked, the fish multiplied in the myriads of lakes and rivers. and the rich fertile fields were left uncleared and untitled. For half hundred years the sons of the Dominion, going cut into the world, have gone south leaving a bank vault unbolted open at home. all because there was no means of transporting the treasure And while the practical young business men have been drifting south, the dreamers of fiction have followed them leaving here, in the northern forests a veritab1e treasure-house or song and story, for Canada IS as rich in fiction as she is in fact.

 Switzerland runs a steep-grade rail- road up a mountain side by water power There are two lines of track and two trains, one on each track. When stable, one train Is at the upper and the other at the lower terminal. The front of the train at the bottom is attached to the rear of the one at the top by cable running up the mid de of the track to the top, and thence over by pulleys. Likewise, a cable runs from the front of the top car down the grade, to the rear of the bot tom car. On the ends of the trains are large tanks.
