TIE BULLETINS DAILY STORY
WHICH WINS?

miles along the road there was that mans car. broken down. Something was wrong with it's diaphragm. and he was on his back under it, tinkering away with a monkey wrench and sweating and groaning and using lan- guage that would have done to fry eggs on. If anything goes wrong with a horse you don't have rol crawl under him with a crowbar and a wrench and stand on your shoulder blades and take his works apart and then put them to- gether again.
 That's true" admitted the man with the leather cap, "but it can be said to the credit of the automobile that it doesn't kick your head off while you are trying to fix it. And it doesn't shy at everything that comes along the road. And it doesn't give a snort and run away if the village band starts to play Hail Columbia And you don't have to take a silly currycomb D and scrape an auto with it. pick coclxle-burs out of it's mahe, get your hair full of chaff carrying feed to it. The horse belongs to the era of spinning wheels and tallow candles and percussion caps"
 And the automobile,' cried the old liveryman, with great vehemence. .'ne- longs to the era of padded cells and strait-jackets and alienists and hy pathetical questions of 47.000,000 words. Chase yourself. my friend, be- fore I lose my temper and do some police station. n."-Chicago News.

''The horse," remarked the man with the leather cap, assuming the air of one handing down a decision from which there ir no appeal, -.is a relic of the dark ages. It was good enough in the times when men went to tim smith to be measured for a summer suit and fought one another with long poles instead of lawsuits. But the horse is an anachronisfn now.''
 So is man a relic of the dark ages,' replied the ancient iiVeryman. -Now that wood is sawed by machinery and water is pumped by windmills of what use is man? Why not abolish him and save unnecessary expense? Every day some aleck comes along and says that the only fit place for the horse is the junk yard. 1 heard the same sort of talk when the horse-car companies put down cables and turned about a million ponies on to the market. heard it when the bicycle had it's boom q few years ago. Now that the auto same old story.
 Let me tell you, my friend, that when Gabriel comes to move an ad- journment of all earthly proceedings he will find men driving horses, and buying and selling horses. and swap ping horses; but I would not want to make guess as to how many autos he'll find.''
 You must admit, however" said the man with the leather cap. that the automobile has advantages over the horse I used to own horse before I bought my"automobile, and there was q tail on the end of him that faced the buggy, and that tail was a great nui- sance. The lines used to get under it, and when I'd try to release them the animal would pass about 8 bushel of hoofs over the dashboard and some of them were pretty sure to catch me where they would hurt. A horse wouldn't be so bad if 1t had its tail on top of it's head. where it wouldn't be in the way"
 You think it smart to make fun of horses" returned the old liVeryman, with some warmth. You're like all the rest few days ago there was an aIeck just like you at my barn, and he said all sorts of mean things about horses. I happened to mention that l was going to drive to Tinlxumville, and he said he was going there in his car and he would make the trip while was fussing around hitching up my team. Then he went away in cloud of dust and smoke and he looked back over his shoulder and grinned.
 Well, when I drove a couple Of

Glass Houses for Everybody.

The time is not far distant-if a recent discovery realizes expectations when we shall all be living in glass houses, and the roofs of our cities will be made of green. blue, purple or brown glass, which will defy the grimy enemies, soot and smoke, and This dream has been made possible by a new invention which. it is claim ed will revoIutionize the iron and slate trade. A process has been dis covered by which the waste slag in the blast furnace system of manufac- turing iron can be transformed into a valuable commercial article. By the new invention proportions of sand and sulphate of soda, and in some in stances a little lime, are put in the blast furnace, so as to make the slaS into glass. This glass, is then cast into various shapes fors states paving blacks. bricks and tiles. The slates can be manufactured. it is stated at less than half the expense of Welsh slate. They have a polished appear ance and can be made in any size or shape in colorS. A house roofed in with the new glass slates will not re quire skylights, and even windows way be dispensed with in the top rooms. Experiments are now being made by the patent corporation in Liverpool, Eng, with slags obtained from various iron works, and every thing points to the successful founda- tion of a new industry of great inter est to the building and architectural world,-Montreal Standard.

CIVIL SERVICE CONDITIONS.

Secretary Ballinger. in a denuncia- ton of tfs muck rakers of the coun- try. complains Of the way in which subordinateE are furnished under the civil service system of today Com menting upon the Kerby incident, he says
 Tt seems to have been overlooked, Tn the tempest stirred up by the ex- eggerated notions of duty, that every head of 3 department under our gov erruent has only such subordinates as the civil service gives him, and, unlike the head of a great business concern. his subo-dinstes are chosen for him He is. therefore, at the mer- cy of the secret cabals of dishonest servants who may compass his de- struction- It makes an uninViting Held for public office, and no man can be Justly envied who is compelled to struggle with such conditions"
 It rather looks as if this was one pf the best commentators civil sel-v- be could have If the secretary had Bone nothing to betray his clerk would pot have felt in conscience bound ito teu on him" and how much better ,traight work is than something which pnust be kept secret We will not go back on civil service because it does Sot suit the Bellinsers.

Tuberculosis Often Develops
 From Pneumonia

Consumption readily attacks those who have had Pneumonia Many sufferers from tuberculosis give a history of hay ing had pneumonia. The lungs thus weak ened are more easily attacked by the germs that cause consumption.
 For all those with weak lungs'' espe- ciaIIy those who have had pneumonia, Eckman's A1terative is the. appropriate remedy Cures of consumption are ac- compIished by Eckman's Alterative. But take, it in time There is no wisdom in waiting until Tuberculosis is established.
 Health is never fully valued until sick ness comes

CONDITIONS GRATIFYING IN
 MAINE
MAINE

The Portland Press is immensely pleased to think that the prospects in fhe approaching Maine campaign are gratifying to the dem It says in reply to the hopeful Lewiston Sun. that sit is one of the best signs of the times that the democratic party in Maine IS alive and earnest and ex- pectant- A dead opposition, says The Press always works harm to the af- fairs of state There is no careless ness no tendency to siipshod work on the part of the party in power when the opposition ia alive and attending to business One of the best things that can happen in any state is to have party lines of sufficient evenness that the majority may realize the un- safety of neglect in the management of public affairs The democratic prospect is therefore gratifying, as. The Sun says; not that there is any prospect of a democratic victory in Maine; that would not be a good sign ft would be nothing to be gratified about, but it is gratifying that as cit fzens the members of that party are showing great interest in public mat terS and are active enough to create an opposition that is sure to be help ful to the party which so long has been and doubtless long will continue to be, in control of matters in the state Of Maine

HOPEFUL SOCIALISTS.

The socialist triumph at Milwau- kee has given socialism renewed &C., tivity in all parts of New England :; and the prospect of socialist ticket in the fall elections in most New | England states shows that the present | condition of unrest is most inviting to them.
 At the last election in Connecticut, the socialists cast 4.390 votes. It is now announced that Robert Hunter of Greenwich will be the socialist candidate for governor in this state, and referring to his candidacy, the Waterbury American says: MT. Hunter while he enjoys the picturesqueness of the parlor social fist. is hardly a candidate to arouse enthusiasm on the score of personal ity. Socialism, while admittedly | making strides in the great cities, and [ curiously enough among the farmers
 of the middle west, has remained almost stationary in this state for years and seems likely to continue so There is little for it to feed upon. It lacks leaders and it's endorsement is confined to small coteries of ideal ists, whose public utterances do not seem to indicate thorough understand ing of even Karl Marx.
 That the socialist movement should have any appreciable effect upon the coming election is incredi ble.'
 The Rutland (Vt.) News says: "The socialists are preparing to put a state ticket into the field this fall and are circulating papers to secure the nec- essary names. Two years ago the socialists had a state ticket, but cast only 547 votes, which was less than one per cent of the total vote. To hold it's place the ballot a, party must cast at least one per cent. of the total vote.
 ITO get their ticket back upon the ballot requires the signatures of one per cent. of the voters as indicated at the last state election. This year it will require about 630 signatures
 The socialist candidate for gov ernor is Charles E. Ordway of Proc torsville. while J. Frank Bradbury of Bennington iss named for the office of lieutenant governor"
 It is probable that there will be a socialist ticket in the field in Massa- chusetts. but yet there is no in dication that Maine and New Hamp- shire will follow suit, although Rhode Island may.
 It would not be surprising if the socialists increased their vote to some extent. but the time is not ripe for a socialist victory in any state in New England.

NOISE A NUISANCE.

It Is not among the possibilities to have a uoiseless city, yet an excess of noise is such a nuisance that the laEg- CT cities are striving to reduce the noise making to the least possible encunt
 In paving city streets its now done with the view of having as little ncise as possible-the soft road for busi- ness beats the granite block thorough fare to death for comfort to traffic and the adjacent business houses This is what they say about pavements and noise at Newark. N. J.:
 '-Whatexer interferes with business CT renders Its transaction more diff cult represents Q direct money loss to the business man The roar of those Market street cobbles is. therefore, a tax upon Market street business-a tax which is paid in general discom- fort. the loss of business. deprecia- tion Of property values and a falling ef in rents.
 And the longer the pavement lasts, the larger grows the tax
 Add this tax to it's original cost and the most expensive pavement possible Is granite block
 And the dirt and the wear on hu- man nerves and the most unhealthy pavement possible OF a heavily trav- e,eo street is granite block"
 Noise k 2 nuisance. It abstracts the nerves It interferes with comfort It renders the conduct Of ordinary af- fairs difficult. It is an impeachment to business It also costs money.
 Needless noise is usually prohibited by law, as 1t should be.
 AS civilization advances, indeed 1t becomes Increasingly evident that quiet conduces not only to public comfort. but to the public health.
