The inconvenience to business inter-
ests and the travelling public as well
as financial losses through the suspen-
pension of passenger and freight ser
vice is something that assumes large
proportions. 1t would seem as if there
should be partial remedy for this
situation. Accidents will happen un-
der the most favorable conditions but
it should be the aim to reduce these to
the minimum. Whether the present
road bed can be SO improved as to with
stand these washouts or whether it can
be done by building higher line,
the fact remains that some definite
improvements should be made so a. to
prevent these recurring disadvantages
to trade. to the railroad and to the
public.

Bio OYSTERS,

Pliny mentions that, according to the
historians of Alexander's expedition,
oysters a foot in diameter were found
In the Indian seas And Sir James
Tenant was Unexpectedly enabled to
corroborate the correctness of this
statement, for near Trincomali enor-
nous specimens of edible oysters were
brought before him. One of these was
found to measure more than eleven
inches in length by half SIS many In
width.
But this extraordinary measurement
is beaten by the oysters Of Port Lin
coin, South Australia, which are the
largest edible ones in the world. They
are as large as dinner plate and Of
much the same shape. They are some
times more than foot across the
shell, and the oyster fits its habitatfon
so well that it does not leave much IL
any margin.
1t is no uncommon experience In
that quarter for person who is hun
CRY to have one oyster, fried in butter
or in eggs and breadcrumbs, set be.
fore him. The delicacy Of flavor Of
the Port Lincoln mammoth is famous,
even in that land Of luxuries, and one
is ample even for hearty appetite.

Billy caught a glimpse of red en-
velope on the girls blotter and sprang
for it, but the bookkeeper intercepted
him.
Its against the law to interfere
with the United States mail" he re-
minded. you can't have a letter ad-
dressed to Miss Pawling."
Its not a letter! It's an outrage"
shouted Billy as he struggled to reach
the desk. Before he could free him
self Ida entered, and, with curious
glance at the little knot of struggling
men, she moved quietly to her desk.
She had seen the gaudy envelope in
Billy's hand, and when she found one
like it on her desk she guessed the
cause Of the confusion. The men had
stopped wrestling with Billy, and now
the glances of the entire Office were
upon her.
With a woman's sixth sense she
could feel their interest, and with
slow movement she reached for the
glaring envelope, glanced at the bold,
black type, tore it across without open
ing it and raised the lid of her desk.
AS the flaming fragments fell into
the basket the spell was broken. The
clerks moved to their desks and re-
sumed their work. The incident was
forgotten by all save Billy, who de-
termined to locate the man who had
sent the letters or planned the rude
jest and to give him the thrash1ng OF
his life. For himself he did not mind,
but 1t was both unmanly and unjust
to subject the girl to such an fndignity.
All day long he brooded over the
matter, and when the Office closed he
was as far from a solution of the
problem as ever, so he determined to
ask Ida's assistance
He fingered for a moment after she
left, that the others might not suspect
his plan; then he slipped out, and, by
taking short cut through the alley,
he managed to emerge OH the next
street. breathless, but successful, for
Ida had just turned the corner half q
block beyond.
She was startled to find him waiting
for her.
"Why, you were in the office when /
Ieftr" she cried wonderingly. "Have
you some magic carpet that transports
you?'
Billy glanced down at his rather neat
patent feathers.

these a carpet" he suggested. with
laugh. 81 cut through the alley and
