AN ENGINEERING TEST.

The civil engineer who has exclt-
ed more or less fippant comment by
stating that the roosting of birds on
a bridge is a good test of the secur-
ity of the structure ventures to re-
peat his proposition, and he quotes
such distinguished naturalists as
Darwin and Audubon in support OF
his contention. Elephants cannot
be driven over a weak viaduct, bur-
ros refuse to take dangerous trail
and rats are the first to desert a
leaking ship. "Call it all an absurd
superstition if you WILL" says the
engineer, ''the fact remains that
some things have their influence on
poor, frail humanity that cannot be
supported by logarithmic compute
ton boston Herald.
Ten years ago two energetic young
women decided to open a tea room
in Wellesley village, where the col
lege students could get luncheons if
they desired to take afternoon tea.
1t was so successful that a corpora
ton was formed, outsiders putting
money into the enterprise. Now the
corporation has changed into the
Wellesley Inn corporation, and it is
quite a fourishing business. 1t is
now college clubhouse and the la
dies at the head of the organization
are very proud of its success.

GOOD WORD FOR THE RAT.

Had it not been for a wire roll
used in dressing the hair, Gertrude
Brown, the 14-year-old daughter of
P. S. Brown, would undoubtedly
have lost her life when she was
thrown from her horse the other aft
ernoon.
1t so happened that Miss Brown
had rolled her hair higher than
usual and so the wire rat received
the brunt of the fall. The injury
was directly under the roll and was
Jagged three-cornered hole. The
girl fell on the back of her head
upon a loose stone in the street and
the wire roll covered with hair kept
the stone from fracturing the skull.

FEARED FATE OF COMPANION
Possible Reason Why Dog Refused TO
Wear Collar That Belonged to
Dead Chum.

A New York physician told this
story recently in a little company
where pet animals were being dis
cussed: eve had two little pets.
a Bohemian and King Charles
They were both bright, well behaved
and affectionate, with a weakness for
the baby and candy. They were SC
much members of the family that
when presents were distributed Tip
and Rex were often remembered.
Once they got new collars, with o
high key bell on one and a bell OF
lower note on the other. The Blen-
helm, a short time ago, got mixed
up with the wheels of an automobile
and went to dog paradise, and there
was mourning in the nursery. a
few days later the maid, before tax
ing him out, put the collar on Rex,
but instead of jumping for the door,
as he usually does, he howled and
skunk back into the Railways. Moth
ing could induce him to follow the
maid, and when she tried to carry
him he growled and showed his teeth
and the cry went through the house
that Rex is mad It was discovered
that the dead dogs collar had been
put on by mistake, and when this
was removed he was himself again.
1t was evident that he would not
wear his former companions bell"

ENERGY OF FLAT WHEELS.

The enormous energy developed
by a fiat spot in wheel has been
estimated by Prof. Hancock of Pur-
due university. He finds that a fiat
spot 21a inches long on 33-inch
wheel, carrying load of 5000
pounds at 80 miles per hour, will
deliver a blow to the rail of more
than a 1,0oo-foot pounds. The same
flat wheel supporting 55-ton inter-
urban car running at 60 miles per
hour, would deliver blow with an
energy of 9,5O0-foot pounds. Such
a fiat spot would be produced by
wearing off less than 0.O5-inch OF
metal.
