Preventing Suicide.

We commend to the Salvation Army
a method successfully used on would
be suicides for some years in Boston
by citizen who has won a reputation
as confidant of unfortunates, weak
lings and genteel paupers, says Boston
Herald. When 1t is announced that a
case" Is ready TO tie the moose. or
Jerk the trigger, or take the plunge,
or sip the dose. this mans face lights
up with curious interest when are
you going to do it?" he asks. IF you
really mean TO keep faith. ] want to
be there. / desire to see you do the
first sensible act of your life" The
intended suicide, who expected TO be
pleaded with and saved" is hurt In
his pride and decides not TO tie. jerk.
take or sip. but TO live on and prove
that there are those who love him,
her, IT. Nothing so palsies the hand
OF self.destruction as sudden and
unforeseen collapse OF opposition. OBJ.
stacle and grief. Suicide is the apex
of conceit. The victim has a vast pity
for himself. Get his dander up. and
he's saved" 1t may be he will con
tinne to be n proud paupcr. but at
least he has obyiated muss and a
funeral. Approach all Nanki Poos in
the spirit OF Koko and there will be
no call for the snickersnee or the

Cost of Improving a Railroad.


To duplicate the track of large
American road would involve an ex-
penditure whose resulting yearly
charges would be very far from being
met by the added revenue for a long
time to come. AS matter of fact.
most of the railroads are. therefore,
duplicating their tracks slowly, says
Wolcott Drew in Moody's Magazine.
It is. however, not question whether
enough is spent each year to keep n
road, already in good condition, up to
the previous normal standard, but
whether enough additional has been
expended to keep the road in the up
to-date state demanded by the contin-
ually higher standard Of living and ex-
penditure in the whole country. A
striking example is seen in the South.
ern Pacific. In 1902 a large broker
age house, interested in this stock,
estimated with an expenditure of $40,-
100000 this road would be in first
class physical condition and enabled
easily to pay dividends. A forty-mil.
lion.dollar issue of preferred stock
was actually made. But it has been
found necessary in the last four years,
in addition to this sum, to expend
nearly 100000 before the road has
been brought up to a first-class con-
dition. 1t has now the rather large
bond capitalization OF $4,000 per
mile.
