WHY THE LINE CHANGED.
A Grave That Was Guarded by Tive
Women and a Baby.

The manager of the construction de-
partment of the Pleasant Valley cleo
trio road was greatly disturbed when
Iudkins. the foreman. came in and
said that he could not go on with the
work on account of two women and a
baby.
'Well," said the manager, according
to the Chicago Tribune, this is all
nonsense. We have the right of way,
and the road is going through where it
was surveyed. I'll go out and see to 1t
myself"
The foreman went out with a smile
on his face and the young manager
followed him to where the construction
Of the road had come to full stop.
In front of a dilapidated structure
was seated a girl rocking a baby. Back
of the girl, sitting on the low step.
was a weary looking woman.
The manager approached and said:
MADAM, are you aware that you are
obstructing the progress of our wOrk?"
Il reckon l am. That's what Susan
IS there for; that's what and the kids
are here for. We propose to shunt
your road off to one side"
But, madam, the line has been sur
veyed. You will have to move Your
place has been condemned. You will
be paid for it. The law

your road. even if it was backed by
the president, can't run through our

The manager passed around the shan

small marble slab with a few flowers
growing about 1t. He drew near and |

Blue Blood.

In the "Zetschrift Fur Deutsche
Wortforschung" r. f. Arnold recently
called attention to a verification of the
origin Of the we'll known term "blue
blood" In Goethe's preface to the
German translation of Salyandys
French novel, "Alongo" QS20 occurs
the following passage, "a man of so
red and even so blue blood as mine,"
to which the author adds the explana-
tory note, "In some parts Of Spain, es-
pecially in the kingdom Of Valencia,
the aristocracy IS divided into different
classes, according to the color of the
yellow, red and blue blood" In the
opinion of the "Politische Anthropo-
logische Revue" the ''blue blood" re-
fers to the blush blood shining through
the veins of the skin that distinguish
ed the hidalgos, the Spanish nobility
Of German descent, from the red and
yellow blooded natiYe-that is, the
darker type

The Value of skins.

Owing to pelagic sealing and the de
population of the great rOokeries off the
coast of Alaska, the market price Of
perfect sealskin taken from the largest
bachelor seal has risen from So and $40
to $10O and $3.50 within the last twen'
ty-hve years. This makes seal hunt

and other tropical animals may be

'Tom," said his brother one day,

Tommy agreed, and they went to the

Johnny.
Tommy complied, and his weight
was found to be sixty-eight pounds

FACTS ABOUT SOAP.
Chemical Properties of the "Rapid
Washer" Variety.

That those who buy soap by weight
choose dry and hard kinds TO avoid
purchasing water Is advised by a cor
respondent quoted in the Lancet. This
writer, a well known English physi-
clan. says that while investigating ex-
penditures at a large London hospital
he found that large quantity of soft
soap was being used and that as this
contained a considerable percentage of
water the institution was paying
very high price both for water and for
soap. To quote the Lancets article:
He suggests that the best and most
economical soap for the purpose is dry
conjunction with a water sOftener or
with boraX. Forty tons or so of soft
soap, he adds. We're used some little
time ago at the launch of new Gu
harder. but they who manage such
things would never think of paying the
price hospitals pay. nor do railway
companies or hotels
An eminent firm of soapmakers also
writes to the same paper that old fash
loned soap made with tallow is much
superior to that now generally used.
To quote again:
1T would appear that in order to
make an oil soap hard enough to form
a bar it is necessary to introduce into
it large proportion of cocOanut oil or
palm kernel OIL These two oils hith-
erto have formed the basis of the so
called rapid washer soaps COcoanut
or palm kernel oils absorb a much
larger percentage of caustic alkali than
does tallow, and so it is evident that
the rapid detergent properties of these
soaps are due principally to the excess
of chemicals which they contain. 1T
seems to us, therefore, time to send a
warning note to the public to induce
them to return to the good old fashion
ed soaps Of their fathers-sOaps which
washed but did not destroy the clothes
or irritate the skin, and, although 1t is
claimed that the oil soaps can be used
with less labor, their destructive prop
critics should not be lost sight Of
While on this subject we should like
to ask why the most refined of all
olive oil soap-unless it |
is specially asked for, is hardly ever
supplied to the public. One difficulty
at least will very shortly have to be
faced by the soapmakers who employ |
cocoanut oil and palm kernel oil for /.
the preparation of the rapid cleansing
variety of soaps. and that is that these /
oils are being very largely used for ed /
Ible purposes. and there can be little /
doubt that modern ingenuity is such /
that they even masquerade as butter.
1t is probable, therefore, that this fact /
will tend to raise the price of these oils
unless a cheaper substitute is found.
Such a substitute has not yet been dis
covered Literary Digest.
