Waterbury evening Democrat., 1907-07-20

Chief Chemist Wiley of the depart ment of agriculture at Washington, addressing the graduating class of a scientific school at Cleveland, said ocularly that he belongs to a hun dred-year club, any member of which who dies before completing the cen- tury will be expelled in disgrace. Speaking more seriously, he said:
 The present generation is going to live much longer than the one which came before. because it knows more about the laws of diet, hygiene and surgery. It is a rank disgrace for any man to die, except of old age" And Dr Wiley thinks that. in view of the good prospects of long life as a result of proper care and under standing of the rules of health, it will pay a man to spend a long time, even twenty years or more. in the schooling which shall fit him for his work. From which it is to be in- ferred that learning how to live is one of the essentials to long life.

The French long ago discovered that the brilliant nasturtium vas as grateful to the palate as it was to the eye-they made nasturtium sandwiches. Only a few American cooks utilizes the fragrant leaves as an edible: more's the pity. for they are the very acme of daintiness; they must be made from the small, tender leaves covered with mayonnaIse dress ing They must be served soon after preparing as the leaves soon loose their spicy freshness Just before sending to the table lay . few blos- sons on each plate These sandwiches are especially nice served with neat and game

c. P. R SCORES ON HILL.
To Start Ne5c Train Service from
st. Paul to Seattle.

TIE Canadian Pacific Railway is to become a
more important factor in the American railroad
sltua ton than heretofore. and its strengthened
position in the transcontnental transportation
business is seriously dsliked by the Hill inter-
ests in the Northwest. In a few DAYS the Cana
dian Pacific will start new train service be-
tween st. Paul. Spokane, Portland and Seattle,
and it is expected its new route will attract con-
siderable business from the Hill roads particu-
iariy as 1t will give the Canadian Pacific the
shortest line between St. Paul Spokane and
Portland.
This new route is made possible through the
Canadian Pacifc's control Of the MINNEAPOLIS
St. Paul & Sault ste. Marie which will be used
10 the Canadian border From that point traffic
VIII he taken by the Canadian Pacific to tbs
international boundary line in Idaho. and then by
me spokane International into Spokane from
"Hlch point direct connection will be made with
Foruand by the Hartman line, the oregon
Navigation Company. Spokane & Interna-
uohel stock 10 the amount of 81 per cent Of
the capital is held in escrow for the Canadian
racine the latter having a ten-year option.
Ihls new service will he used mostly for pas
senger traffic, but it also is expected TO divert
good deal Of freight business from the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific. In railroad and
banking circles the route is taken as O. d.
rect slap at the Hill roads and is considered an
important incident in the warfare that the Hill
and Canadian Pacific people are waging for rail-
road supremacy in the Northwest The Harri-
man people do not object to the new arrange
ment, as It gives them more use for their Oregon
Navigation Company.
MI Hill is building a new transcontinental
road in Canada and is encroaching on the
Canadian Pacific territory, but interests which
take an unprecedented view say that there is
enough traffic for both roads in Canada and
that the great expansion that is going on in the
Northwest makes another railroad necessary.
In the current fiscal year the earnings Of the
Canadian Pacific have increased more than
%11Ooo000 over those for the fiscal year Of 1903,
which showed gain of more than S1oO00.OO0
over the preceding year. These earnings do not
include tho proceeds Of the land sales.
