Railroads and Waterways.

Close study of the conditions OF the
inland waterways of this country
shows that the prosperity or the de-
preston of traffic upon canals and
rivers depends upon the kind and
quality of competition raised by the
railroads. Not, perhaps, until a bond
of interest can be arranged between
water lines and railroad lines can the
success of waterways be assured
The commissioner of corporations
in his recent report upon transpofta-
ton, reviews the history of the de
cline of traffic upon the canals. TIE
Erie canal, for example, carried more
than twice as much freight as the rail
roads up to the year 1854 The bust
ness has now fallen to per cent of
that of the railroads. Canals. such
as the Erie and Miami, are almost dis
used. The coal trade between Pitts
burg and the south moves largely by
river, yet the trade is confined to river
cities and towns The railroads hold
tight grasp upon inland business.
While freight can be carried much
cheaper by water than by rail, figured
on the cost per ton mile, transfers
from water to rail might eat UP all
the savings of shipment. Regula-
ton of charges might prove extreme
ly difficult if an attempt were made
to counterfeit the retaliatory rates of
rail competitors. The one possibility
of an adjustment of differences which
would permit of the development and
the prosperity of waterways lies, prob
ably, in an understanding between the
two. Railroad men of foresight have
said that the rail lines must some day
look to the canals and rivers for the
carriage of surplus. The companies
might be expected to run their own
boats in order to hold all the freight
they can, build terminals and wharves
and encourage water shipments.-To-

REVIVAL OF STENCILING.
Adaptation of Straw Mating to This
style of Decoration

Adaptation of straw Mating to This
style of Decoration.
Never has Japanese mating been in
such popular favor for decorating and
house furnishing articles as during
the present season, the Boston Post
says.
Now that stenciling Is the favorite
fad in decorating, many and beautiful
are the various decorative schemes to
which the mating lends itself to stem
CLING. Mating rugs decorated with
stenciled border are very attractive
and useful for the porch or summer
cottage. Plain white mating is used
for the stencil decorating and the rug
ends are finished by raveling out the
mating to a depth Of four or five
inches and knotting the strands in
punches Of six or eight. close to the
last strand of mating, thus forming
a pretty fringe. A conventional bor-
der for the rugs Is the proper style of
decoration.
Porch floor cushions are equally at
tractive made from mating and bound
together with rata and decorated with
a stencil design.
Screens filled with stenciled mating
always look cool and inviting. Lamp
and candle shades of stenciled mating
bound with rata are also very popu-
lar for summer use.
Utility boxes, chair seats and tables
covered with mating are also recelv-
ing their share of stencil adornment.
A screen of green mission filled with
white mating. decorated with flights
of brilliant-hued butterflies and darn
ing needles"-the wasplike insect
which our parents often threatened us
would sew up our childish lips for
acts of naughtiness-wa recently The
storm center of admiration in nn ey-
hibit of arts and crafts.
The work is fascinating. the effect
charming and the cost next to moth
ing.
Enough said.

BEAUTY BACILLUS NOW.

NEGOTIATIONS Given by BacterioIs-
Instead of relying on ointments and

scientific bacteriologist For the past
six months NEGOTIATIONS for beautify-

How the injection of few millions
OF disease germs into the tissues OF

sluggish, blotchy complexion to a nor
NAL, healthy skin was explained at the
hospital yesterday. The best results
are obtained In the cases of muddy"
sallow compilations, due to the slug
gish action of the skin glands. The
disease here is caused by a recently
discovered germ named the acne
bacillus" In other cases where the
skin is tender and painful, another
germ, the staphylococcus. is usually
found as well. Tie treatment consists
of injecting under the skin vaccines
composed of one or both Of these two
bacilli. according to the symptoms OF
the case
The ordinary patient seeking treat
ment for bad complexion will receive
in his first dose about 125 millions OF
staphylococci. with, perhaps, five NIL

are manufactured in the laboratory,
and are supplied in tiny glass bulbs,
each holding about teaspoonful. One
of these bulbs is sufficient for three or
four doses. and. contains well over 500
million Of the bacilli.
One great advantage of the new

time required. A tiny patch of skin
on the shoulder or flank is carefully
washed and sterilized, and the vac
cine is injected with a hypodermic

STORIES ABOUT TOWN.
joke that Wasn't a Joke.

About the most "conceity" thing be-
fore the American people today is the
weighing machine that says II speak
your weight. " II II said leave me a
lock of your hair and I'll write your
weight on a postal card and send it to
you with my autograph" It would not
be quite so alecky on the part OF the
machine, but that braggy Il speak
your weight" Is pretty much the limit.
1t is the ne plus ultra of mechanical
egotism
All this, however, had not occurred
to a middle aged man with baggy
trousers from a tank town at the
American house a day or two age
who spied the machine that speaks
ones weight right out. He had not
been weighed for several months and
had . curiosity TO know just what
was doing I'm avoirdupois. All he had
noticed was that the machine in the
lobby seemed TO be a scale He was
too preoccupied TO read the announce
ment about how 1t would make known
his weight. He was surprised there
fore after he had dropped in his niclel
TO hear someone tell him in a loud
voice e-eighty-two.g He looked
around to see who 1t was that had
guessed his weight. but no one seemed
TO be paying any attention to him.
You're great lot OF JoIxers around
here" he nauttered, and forgetting all
about his weight, ne started into an
other room to try to hnd the man who
had made the guess

children in the respective districts

is a decline of 81 children. lt is not
very serious decrease, the really
serious part of it being that it is a
decrease at all, and that the county
has been dwindling down in juvenile
population steadily for number of
years. Our mines are more pros
