NEW RAILWAY SIGNALLING.
System Appeals to Ear Instead of te
Eye Of Engine Driver.

Consul Frank w. Mahin reports
from Nottingham that the Great West
ern Railway has successfully expert
mented with and just installed on a
branch line a method of audible sig
Mailing as a substitute for the fami-
liar semaphore system, which, it Is
believed, will be entirely displaced in
course of time.
The new system Is electrically
plicity itself The engine as 1t trav.
els along the line comes into contact
with an apparatus fixed to the track
which is worked from the signal box
and sets in motion a form Of mech
anism on the engine. Instead of the
engine driver having to look out for
his signals they declare themselves
10 his ear Enthusiastically. Line clear
is expressed by the blowing Of q
whistle, which continues until the en-
CINE driver with his own hand turns
Il of.
Both bell and whistle are fixed in
side the engine cab, close by the driv-
er as he stands to his lever, and
should afford a more telling means OF
notification than dial on which
signs appeared. The substitution OF
audible for visible signals would re-
lieye drivers of the strain Of perpet-
ually looking out for any particular
signal or lamp. The apparatus Is so
constructed that IL anything went
wrong anywhere the whistle signal
would operate. The chief value or
the audible signals would be found in
foggy weather, and the new system
is therefore of particular importance
in country so fog-afflicted as Eng
land.

CHIooRY FIRST USED BY DUTCH
War Blockade Responsible For Dis
covery Of Good Qualities
of the Root.


Although chicory was probably
known and used by the ancient Ro-
mans as a pot herb, 1t remained for
the Hollanders about 200 years ago to
discover that the roots of the chicory
plant dried. ground and roasted pro-
duced drink like coffee. both pal
atable and healthful.
During the Napoleonic wars a strict
blockade OF the continent of Europe
was maintained and all importations
of coffee, tea and cocoa ceased. This
forced the people to turn to chicory
as a beverage and 1t soon came into
general use.
So good was its taste, so rich was
Its aroma that the new beverage at
once became exceedingly popular
with the good Dutch housewives, who
are known the world over for their
ability as cooks.
After the war, when ample supply
of coffee could be secured, the Hol-
landers were loath to give up their
chicory. As result they blended
coffee and chicory and produced good
old Dutch coffee, now served in nearly
all hotels. restaurants and homes In
Europe.
Not only did this blend produce
that rich aroma and flavor, but It
was found that chicory counteracted
the bad effects of straight coffee.
Those who found ordinary coffee in
furious drank the combination and II
proved both refreshing and healthful.
Thus 1t is seen that chicory has
been used for centuries In Europe,
where 1t is regarded as a necessary
addition to coffee.
Americans began using chicory as
soon as they realized 1t was put on
the market to improve the quality OF
coffee and not in any spirit of dishon-
esty. Fortunately the new United
States pure food law requires all
makers to state on their packages
what the contents are, and this pro-
tects the buyer from all substitutes
for pure coffee and pure chicory and
insures q grade equal to that from
which the old fashioned Dutch bever-
age is made.
Through our foreign born citizens
so consistently demanding 1t the mer-
its of chicory have become known by
word of mouth until those who have
heretofore been disappointed in BE-
curing the rich, full coffee flavor in
their morning beverage have found
that by buying coffee mixed with
chicory they secure the exact combin-
alton they have been seeking.

years, "and they are creating consid.

MANNERLESS WOMEN.

Having taken American women
kindly but firmly to task, in Harper's
Bazaar. for their careless and inele-
CANT speech, Henry James has now
removed his gloves, and is much
more severely reproaching them, in
the same periodical for their bad
manners. He says, in the May Ba-
Ear:
When 1t tefel me accordingly, ar

fore, to travel further across 1t and

any knowledge OF any civility offered
or demanded, or any preface, how
ever perfunctory, to any such de-
mand, seemed to make out as new
er yet what the old extinct voice had
meant, and what extent of deviation
the cid closed eyes had begun to fore
see. There had been, in fine, for a
number of persons, the definite, the
informed and quickened vision OF
what it particularly was to be con-
siderate; and was l not finally reap
ing the fruit of the gradual and at
last complete failure of that vision?
Pursue your pilgrimage long
enough, by rail and road, and acct
dental contacts with your. fellow pill
grims (as distinguished from those
persons TO whom you have been,
more intimately, introduced those
acquaintances you have more formal
ly made), naturally ensue; people
make inquiries of you, invite assist
ance, approach or appeal to you, mo-
mentarily, on this or that or the 9TH
ar ground. Small incidents and acct
dents in short occur-of which the
main or the only interest may be
that they throw a certain light on
social conditions. The light thrown
then, to my own apprehension, from
this general source, during consid-
cradle tour, was all confirmation
of the truth looming so pretentiously
up from the first hour of repatria-
ton, the great truth of the non-exist-
ence of any approach to manners on
the part of the nation at large. 1t
was more nearly the nation at large
that one was thus seeing, as one felt
ones situation being for the time
the nearest approach to it one had
made and perhaps would ever make;
and to the nation at large, in rail-
way trains and hotels, in shops and
in city streets, in all centres OF the
particular life the most gregarious
that the principal countries have to
exhibit, women contributed a vast and
conspicuous contingent"
