Railroad superin tendents who herctofore
made regulations by moving short trains
infrequently over single track divisions
are loosiAg those regulations because OF
inability to move long trains frequently
over the same divisions. There would be
no shortage of either power or cars II
skill in operation had grown as rapidly
as the weight of engines, capacity OF
cars and tho length of trains
The Railway Age summing up the less

The Importance of having strong cars
for high speed trains was demonstrated In
the wreck of the Pennsylvania 1S-hour
train at Mineral Point. Pa, on February
2sd, when three Pullman cars plunged
down a 50-foot embankment ana rolled
over on the thick ice OF the Conernaugh
River. The train carried fifty-four pas
sengers and a crew OF ten men. but no
one was killed. n ordinary coaches were
Subjected to similar conditions. they would
have been broken to pieces and the de-
rallment would have resulted In a largo
loss of life. The fact that the Pullman
cars did not take fire after such shock
and overturninS WAS because of the use
OF electric lights and steam heat,

could not bear to go upon certain food
and nothing else
Il promised and then had little
talk with her that simply sent me
away discouraged.
Then I evolved a clever scheme |
started in upon the course of home
athletics, which has since become pop
ular in Berlin. 1t is the famous
kneipp course, named after a relative
Of the first great Kneipp. And it con-
sists of exercising and having good
time at the same moment
Around my gymnasium, for have
home gymnasium, there are three
long boats. And in these I seat my
crews. They are society women, and
make them pull long oar.
"At first they did not take to it very
kindly, but after while they thought
it rare fun. / assemble such as will
come, and let them row for half an
hour every morning. This will not re-
duce the weight of a luxury loving wo-

any stouter.
In the KneipD gymnasium, which
| visited this fall, there are six rowing
machines, and there is the Alexandrine
horse This horse is quite famous
animal. 1t was named for Queen AL
exandra, who invented it, and in size
and shape and coloring it is exactly
the same as a real horse. 1t is even
covered with horsehair. And will not
be sure but that it is stuffed horse
with mechanism inside of it to make it
go.
This horse, which is life size and
all harnessed like any park animal, is
placed in front of a large window
into which the air pours. And when
the music begins the animal trots.
Unlike merry-go-round, the horse is
stationary, but it rises and falls with
much the same motion as live horse
out for canter.
There is method in all this sort of
exercise. 1t is not haphazard Won
en- who are too heavy in the neck and
too fat across the shoulders can try
the rowing machine. While those who
are too thick in the hips and too fat

For ladies whose arms are not the
right size and shape, / have special
exerciser. 1t is one that I have in
vented myself and which has been
taken to London, where it is being
used by the ladies of the queens set.
1t is to reduce fat arms.
''The test Of a fat pair of arms is
found in the ready-made gloves which
are just the right size for a normal
arm. But few matrons can wear them,
and there is CONSERVATION IN the
ranks. My arms are the arms of a
laboring man., the matron means bit
terly to her physical culturist.
THE arm reducer consists of a long
rope of elastic, one of those rubber
ropes which can be bought for exercis-
ing
"A loop is made through which the
head slips, and all that is required in
addition is a big iron hook over which
the rope can be thrown. There can be
handles for convenience The whole
thing is very much like the ordinary
eXerciser, except that it is better for
the arms. 1t is more elastic and one
can exercise the back and the neck
and the chest at the same time. But
CT course, the physical culturist must
be careful not to get strangled.
There is a very ladylike method OF
reducing which is confined to the debI
tante and the matron who has not al
ready become gross. It is called the
lo-minute exercise, and it was invent
ed for the beautiful czarina, who, in
spite OF rumors to the contrary, is very
fond OF her appearance. 1t consists OF

La Belle Otero Wills to wed.

La Belle Otero wills to wed.
All Paris is betting that Cleo de
Merode will follow suit.
The rivalry between these two beau
ties of the Partisan stage is so great
that one never permits the other to
enjoy an achievement without in1medi-
ately attempting to eclipse it.
1t has long been la favorite joke of
the French capitalsthat if Merode got
"a hat worth 500 fsancs, Otero would
Immediately spend twice that sum for
hat Of similar design, only manifest
ly finer in quality and more luxurious.
If Otero got a dress, Merode drew
from her enormous profits in the
Congo ventures ofsKing Leopold OF
Belgium, enough money to enable her
to cast the creation of Otero's modiste
into the shade.
Some years ago an admirer of Otero
presented her with an automobile
worth $4,000 frances Shortly after,
Merode startled Paris by appearing
with two automobiles. The first of
these was an exact counterpart of the
one Otero had recently acquired. It
was the identical make, colored the
same and furnished in every detail so
as to be a perfect reproduction.
In this rode Microbes maid and dog.
A few yards back, in an Infinitely
finer machine, in fact in which has
been said to be the costliest one Paris
had at that time turned out, rode Me
rode
Otero was so angered by this Incl
dent that she sold her automobile for
only half what it cost, and with the
proceeds bought a dog of the same
breed as Microbes, only a finer speci-
men,
These instances are fine illustra-
tons of how the two beauties have
We'd to Guido each other.
1t is not difficult to understand how
in the first place the contention began.
Both made the same bid for popular
favor, being dancers and famous beau
ties. Otero was the first to flash into
brilliancy, and she was the adored OF
the Paris jeunesse doree before Me-
rode had quit the obscurity of minor
ballet place in the Grand opera house.
But though Merode arrived little
bit late, her activities have atoned for
lost time
Her curious style of hairdressing
the arrangement Other lovely locks
by braids, so that they encircled he
face, but kept the ears completely
covered, piqued curiosity. Some OF
her critics whispered that she had
been born without ears, and produced
photographs to show that even at the
age of ten, long before she had dream
ed OF going on the stage, she dressed
her hair in the same bandbeaux.
La Belle Otero, then in the zenith
of hex glory, is giving credit for
spreading the report that the closely
bound tresses of the younger woman
concealed a horrible deformity, which,
il revealed, would Immediately dispel
any claim that the new dancer had to
beauty.
This bit of criticism, whether true
or false, naturally did not have the eff
feet of endearing Otero to Merode,
