could not he used in the terminal in Its
condition. These roads re-
ceive their power from on top of the
rail, the contact-shoe being the means
by which the train picks up the cur
rent. Any little obstruction will easily
break it, which will cut O IF the power
and leave the train helpless, and in
case it is not quickly repaired will tie
up the entire line. This danger has all
been removed by the New York Cen
trails Improvement.
Eminent engineers and electricians
claim that the third-rail system is not
without its advantages over the over
head trolley system, chief of which is
its greater hauling capacity. Both the
New York Central and New Haven
roads furnish cleaner, speedier and
more frequent service than was possi.
BILE when they used steam locomotives
as their motive power. Both these
roads enter the terminal thru a long
tunnel under Park Avenue and on ac-
count of the large number of trains
passing thru each day they were filled
with smoke, which rendered the signal
ing of trains very difficult. This caused
several accidents to happen in which
there was great loss of lives. The re.
suit was that the state authorities gave
the roads until 1910 to make improve
ments that would give their protection
to the travelling public.
The two roads had already tried tt

Uses for Tissue Paper.

The tissue paper that around
wrapped garments in boxes can be
ironed n used for cutting patterns.
1t can be dampened and thrown on the
floor When sweeping is done, to collevt
dust AS a window or glass polish 1t
cannot be equaled. If you must re-
main away from home for several
days and have a fine plant wet 1t
thoroughly and fill the crock with
saturated tissue paper, which will re-
air moisture and keep the earth
damp for several days. Pack 1t down
well on the earth. Save the waxed
paper in cracker boxes to tie over jam
and jelly glasses. It also can be used
to line bread n cake boxes. Meat
placed on 1t can be laid on the ice.
The baking table will need less wash
ing II papers are plentifully used to
catch the flour and sugar sifted about.
When shoes get damp fill them with
tissue paper and 1t will absorb all
moisture. Folded sheets of tissue
paper can be used to soften the inside
of a shoe. Newspapers or old tissue
paper should be used to wipe grease
from pans and kettles before they are
washed. Cover the wire mattress with
newspapers, then an old quilt, to pre-
vent the springs from marking the
bed tick.

OUR CHILDREN'S CORNER

TYERE is a game to play during the
long afternoons. 1t goes as fol-
lows:
Lots are drawn in order to decide who
shall be the grasshopper; the other chill
dren represent the ants; the ants then
seat themselves In a circle. while the
grasshopper writes on a piece of paper
the name of a grain or food which h
grasshopper might be supposed to like.
He puts this in his pocket and then
addresses the ants:
"Dear friends, I am very hungry:
would any of you kindly give me some
food?"
IT have nothing but a grain Of bar
ley" says the first ant.
THANK you; that is of no use to me-"
replies the grasshopper. and goes on to
the next player.
AS DOR as any n offers the grain or
food which the grasshopper has written
down, the paper must be produced, and
the one who guessed the word pays a
forfeit n becomes grasshopper,
II no one guesses the word the grass
hopper pays a forfeit. The game then
goes on in the same way, except that
a different question is asked on the
second round. as follows:
Neighbour" says the grasshopper, Il
have eaten ~abundantly and would have
a dance. Which would you recon-
n
A waltz, a polka. a quadrille. etc,
are suggested, and when this question
has gone the round the grasshopper
asks what music he can dance to. and
the ants suggest the music of the
violin, the piano, the cornet, etc.
Then the grasshopper says he is tired
of dancing and wishes for a bed, and
the ants offer him moss, straw. grass,
etc, to lie UPON.
IT should sleep very comfortably" the
says, but l am in fear of
being bounced upon by a hungry bird.
What bird have I most reason to
fear?" The ants answer the rock. the
lark, the cuckoo. etc.
In each round. II no ant has guessed
the word that the grasshopper has
written on his paper, the latter must
pay another forfeit.
When the game is ended Cat the
players pleasure) the f~orfeits that
have been paid must be redeemed by
the grasshopper.
There is a good deal for the grass
hopper to do in this game, but 1t
hsAns a great deal of fun all around.

Fringe trimming is used extensively

fects appear On many of the very
newest modes. While fringe is not a
desirable trimming for most frocks. 1t

The practical mother, limited with
time for sewing or washing little
dresses, will do we'll to consider the
small jumper pattern for making wash
dresses for the little girls. If made of
good, stout material that washes well,
the dresses can be used until late in
the fall for school wear. The waists
are very plain with the short sleeve
portions cut in with the waist parts
and gathers at waist line. Frequently
a waist will have but two seams, those
belonging to the underarm portions.
The skirt can be gathered and the two
articles stitched together with a mar
row belt. If a striped material is used,
finish the rounded neck, sleeve edges
and skirt with two-inch bands OF
trimming and also make the belt of
the trimming material. AS pretty a
trimming as one would care to find is
polka dot on plain goods, or polka dot
goods trimmed with white bands.
