How Invention Helps Labor.

Sentimental writer's have often ex-
patiated upon the pitiable fact that
working men are driven out of employ
ment by inventors. 1t is true. In the
great cities, for instance, the hod-car-
rier is no luore. The mortar and bricks
used in the construction of a new build
ing are no longer laboriously carried up
ladders ON the backs of men. but are
raised expeditiously by elevators. Nor
does it follow that because the hod-car
rier's former occupation is gone the hod-
carrier must starve. Many a man who
loses hard place finds a better one As
grand result of the invention of labor
saving machinery, the laborer has been
kicked upstairs. Quite as good theme
for disquisition as that of the men whose
trades have been taken from them by
new inventions is the theme of the thou
sands of men for whom inventions have
opened new and improved avenues of
employment.
These considerations are suggested by
the statistics OF the automobile industry
brought forward at the recent national
meeting of automobile manufacturers in
Boston In this country the industry is
little more than seven years old, vet the
amount of capital invested in it in the
United States falls little short of $780,
100000, and the number of people to
whom it directly furnishes employment is
oo,OOU. III diIleu industries II gives en-
ployment 20 $4,000 in addition to these,
and pays profits in an additional $780,
100000 of invested capital. But these
statistics have to do only with the manu-
featuring side of the business. There is
employment for people who sell automo-
biles as well as for people who make
them, and there are in the United States
2151 sales and garage establishments,
with capital of $57.500.000, which fur
nish employment to $21 500 persons. The
grand total of capital in the automobile
business in this country is reported to be
S171,440, 100, and the grand total of peo-
pie employed in making and selling and
caring for automobiles 10S,500.
Despite the hard times, a further in
crease is looked for in 1908 Let it be
understood, moreover, that this does not
include motor cycles.
The working man has no reason to
stand in fear of the progress of inven-
ton. Instead of taking the bread out of
the mouth of labor, it often has the effect
of offering to the man who works two
opportunities for job where he had
only one before.-Eyening Wisconsin,
Milwaukee.

FREAKS OF CLOCKS.
Electric Storms Sometimes Cause Them
to Stop.

"A watch may need cleaning when it
is not dirty at all said a Matchmaker
This sometimes accounts for great
deal of misunders ending between tie
owner of a new watch and the watch
maker 10 whom il Is brought for examiH-
alton Furthermore, watch which las
never been worn any may need cleaning.
"A common reason IS that OIL IN a
watch may have dried up around the
pivot and become sticky. thus causing
the watch to go very slowly or to stop
entirely. in which case, of course, II
needs not only cleaning, but the add
ton of fresh oil.
THE oil which is considered best for
watches is made from the porpoise or
blackfish jawbone. These oils have Il
most disagreeable odor and have To be-
treated chemically before being used.
The skeleton of the fish, with only tile
head left on. is hung in the hot sun
for several days and the oil allowed to
ooze out slowly All the volatile parts
of the oil are naturally neutralized in
this manner and the oil collected is SAID
to remain fluid and clear when it comes
in contact with metal for as long a.
ten years.
Makers of thermometers are especially
scrupulous in the preparation of oils ow-
ing to the accuracy which is demanded
of these delicate timepieces. and often
prepare their own oil Dy mixing por-
poise. sperm, olive and neatsfoot and a
small quantity of mineral oil. When
these oils are mixed L Is customary 10

OF Vital Interest to Travellers.

Another railroad development which
points to increasing safety in travel fol-
lows closely upon the settlement of the
differences between the railroads and
the steel manufacturers as to the form
and constituents of the steel rails of the
future. 1t is revealed by an announce
ment from Pittsburg that the Pennsyl-
yania railroad has just given an order
to one of the pressed steel establishments
of thar city for the construction of
elghty-hye passenger coaches, TO be ready
for service at the beginning of April.
The large order is believed to foreshadow
a complete abandonment of the wooden
passenger coach by the PENNSYLVANIA
road, whose example would in such event
doubtless quickly be emulated by the
other leading lines.
There has never been any doubt as TO
the ability of steel workers to construct
complete steel passenger ear so far as
the externals are concerned but the
builders have been troubled as to interior
fittings of a hre-proof character. II
was realized that an all-steel car would
be cold in winter and hot in sum-
mer. and some material was sought
which would serve as substitute for
wood in the veneering Asbestos viii
probably figure in the composition TO
some extent, although Il note in regard
to the floors of the new cars ordered by
the Pennsylvania road may indicate n
utilization of sawdust and concrete. 1t
is said that these materials have been so
combined that they will make uninfiam-
mable floors to which the seat frames
can be firmly screwed.
The beginning of the end of inilamma-
BILE passenger coaches is evidently at
hand. Considerations of cost as well as
of safety are conformity operating 10

Moving Pictures in italy.

Milan, the center of Italy for the NOV
ing picture machine trade has already
about forty such theaters. Every avail.
able hall is being turned into a moving
picture show, while nearly every second
and third rate theater and "cafe chan
tant'' finishes the evenings entertain
ment with a few cinematograph pic
lures During the dull summer season
even the larger theaters are used.
Dramatic and tragic scenes, natural
scenery of an interesting nature, and
comical farces are sure to fill the hall
at any time in Italy. The Italian loves
to see living scenery; for instance a
moving picture view of Niagara Falls
was a huge success here a short time
ago. The Italian also likes to see typ
zeal scenes of national life. such as, for
instance, bull fights in Spain and winter
sports on the snow and ice in Switzer-
land. Railway scenery is very accept
able. as are views of large towns Pic
lures of the larger towns in the United
States would be huge success in Milan.
Occasionally typical scenes from Ameri-
can life have been thrown on the sheet
ing, such as cowboy life and train
wreckers. The Italian is Disguised, if
not already surfeited, with pictures of
singing and dancing women; neither
does he like fantastical scenery from
fairy tales.-Consular and Trade Re-
