AS Gutzon Borglum. the noted sculp-

Electric Railway Signals.

The Great Western Railway in
England is experimenting with a
promising form OF electric signals
for the prevention of accidents
in fogs and storms. The apparatus
consists of an iron rril placed
halfway between he regular rails
and connected electrically with the
semophores CONTROL ng switches; and
of an electric bell and a whistle, car
ried in the cab of the locomotive, and
actuated by contact with the electric
rail as the train passes over it. The
middle rail is elevated at a certain
height when the semaphores are turn
ed to indicate safety, and at greater
height when they indicate danger. In
the first case, when the locomotive
comes in contact, the bell rings in the
cab, and the engineer knows that the
way is free; in the second case, the
whistle blows in the cab to indicate

Sight Sounding.

An ingenious device by which the
depth of q swift river above high
fall in Ontario was ascertained is de-
scribed by Mr.. H. w. Hixon in the
engineering and Mining Journal. It
was too dangerous to make sound
ings from a boat, so. Mr.. Hixon
planted a transit on one bank, and
from 1t carried a strong wire with a
heavy lead weight at the end, to the
opposite shore. The wire was drawn
taught and the weight was gradually
pulled across on the bottom of the
river. At intervals a sight along
the wire from the transit 10 the
point where the wire dipped into the
water gave the inclination of the
straight line. The length of the
submerged wire and its angle with
the water being known, 1t was easy
to calculate the depth at the various

Eranoe Earliest Artists.

The caves of southern France are
the most remarkable in the world for
their wall pictures. made by prehis-
toric men. who were contemporary
with the mammoth, the rhinoceros
and the reindeer in that country.
Some OF the pictures are en-
graved in the rock. some are painted
with different colors They usually
represent extinct animals. such as
cave-lions and cave-bears. A faith
full representation of the rhinoceros,
with its two horns of unequal length,
is found in a acvern at Font-de-
Gaume. The prehistoric artists made
their paint of ocher of various shades,
pulverized and mixed in mortars.

dyte art have been distinguished by
explorers, most of whose discoveries
have been made within the past four
vars.

SWIMMING DIFFICULT.
Acquired by Man Only by Skill and
Muscular ExertiCn.

Man is not amphibious by nature.
Natation is acquired only by SKILL
and muscular exertion. The lower
animals have much the advantage
over us in this respect. In the first
place, the brute creation have no fear
of water, and in the second, their
heads are exceedingly light in COM
parison with the rest of their bodies.
The mammalian caput contains little
brains and abounds in s.nuses, so
that its relative weight is so incon-
siderable that an animal can easily
keep its mouth and nose above the
surface and respire freely. In man,
on the contrary, the head which Is
full of brains and contains no cavi-
ties, is exceedingly heavy in proper
tion to the rest of the body and the
great difficulty he experiences in
swimming Is to counteract this spe-
cfic gravity and keep the organs of
respiration above water. To attain
this is the perfection OF swimming;
and when 1t has been attained man,
though possessed of natural disad-
vantages, Is superior to all animals
except fish in the natant art.-New

Improvement Of Reading. Pa.
A prominent landscape artist of
Cambridge, Mass. was engaged by the
Civic association of Reading, Pa, to
devise plans for a better and more
beautiful Reading. His report In part
is as follows:
above all. 1t Is important that the
work of the Civic association should
not end in a mere statement of some
of the needs of Reading. Let me try,
therefore, to sum up the definite things
that are necessary to change the pres
ent Reading into a decidedly better
place for business, for homemaking,
for the growth and development Of
children, for wholesome recreation for
all. To my mind the following are
the twelve most necessary things to
do:
"First.-To adopt a more thoughtful
and up to date method Of locating and
improving streets.
"Second.-To remove from the main
streets all wire, poles and other OBJ
structions.
'sThird-To take prompt and vigor-
ous steps for the abatement of the
smoke nuisance.
"Fourth.-To extend the city limits
by annexation, to include all the ter
ritory with the proposed Belt boule-
ward.
"Fifth.-To add to the convenience,
comfort and beauty Of Penn square by
the construction of a central mall or
narrow park strip.
"Sixth.-To proceed at once to make
the best possible grouping of public
and semipublic buildings.
"Seventh.-To lay out a comprehen-
sive system of thoroughfares and
boulevards, including diagonal ave
nues and a belt boulevard to encircle
the city.
"Eighth.-To provide for the grad
ual abolition Of all grade crossings
within the city limits.
"Ninth.-To build across the Schuyl-
appropriate type.
'"Tenth.-To secure at once for play
ground purposes as many open spaces
as possible, especially in the settled
sections of the city.
"Eleventh.-To get possession of the
finest natural features around Read
ing-its mountain tops, valleys, river
banks and creeks-and set them aside
as public parks.
"Twelfth.-To investigate and report
upon the improvement Of housing con-
ditions in Reading"

A Question of Black.

Many women and all men entertain
the fallacious idea that in the realm of
dress black is universally becoming
AS matter of fact. black is one of the
most trying colors to wear successful
ly. II brings out every hard line OF
face and shoulders df 1t be decolletel
and destroys the beauty of any usual
face. lr you select black for your
gown. consider the softness and tex
the possibility OF adding five or ten
years TO your age.
Black Is eminently becoming to some
women when relieved by a touch Of
brilliant color at a place where any
strong contrast will be lessened. A
broad band Of sapphire blue or emer-
aid green placed across the upper part
Of the corsage at the top Of the collar
or edging the sleeves will do much TO
make this serviceable color wearable.
A popularity of black is that It has
tendency to dominate most women.
II Is the woman In the black gown" "
which Is merely another way OF sug-
gesting that the wearer has been plac-
cd In the background. AS q general
rule. black is worn with greater ad-
vantage by tall women, who are able
TO carry a robe Of silk or velvet with
the queenly air of which the poets
sing.
The Titan haired woman with her
milk white skin looks extremely well
In black. The possessor Of blue-bla
hair and skin like Old ivory Is also at
her best In black. The intense golden
haired woman with vivid co,oring can

New Form of Bullet.

German army officers have recently
experimental, with satisfactory re-
suits, with a new form of ribe-ball in.
vented by an Italian. Signor Cei-Rigot-
ii. The projectile terminates at its
front end in a screw-shaped projec-
ton, the purpose of which is to i'm
part q more continuous revolution to
the projectile during its flight The
effect is said to be to give a much
longer range and fatter trajectory

the tnvsntin was not accepted in Italy
but it Is said that this fact is regretted
by the Italian authorities since the

PAINTING THE HOME.
When Done With Care II Improves
Suburban Life,

Without trees, grass and paint no
rural home is complete. Beauty ant
comfort are brought by them. They
make the abiding place a home.
Where employed intelligently and SYM
pathetically they increase the value of
the country home and enrich country
life. The first two are now generally
appreciated, but the last Is too fire.
quently neglected.
Rural buildings may be large and
costly, but If unpainted they are
hideous. The humble house, the In
expensive barn and outbuildings may
be made beautiful by paint with e
careful selection of colors. Many sub
urban homes are inviting because well
painted, the lawns neatly kept and a
few shrubs and flowers added to COM
plete the lacking feature Of beauty
and needs.
Naturally the first effect of paint Is
to improve appearances. That is
much. Paint makes the old look as

the uncuftured, the enterprising from
the shiftless, the successful from the
improvident.
Paint, therefore, not only tells a
story, but it becomes the first need in
town improvement. So mindful are
many suburbanites of this that at
regular stated intervals the buildings
are painted and always kept so. In
deed, some go further and call paint
into use as necessary part Of the re-
pair of farm implements, and nothing
will pay better either unless it be the
wise use of paint for interior decora-

The Lightning Of vesuvlus.

Among the remarkable phenomena
connected with the great eruption of
Vesuvius in April, 1906, Professor
Matteuoci, i'll recent report to the
Italian Geological Society, mentions
the electric discharges in the huge
column OF smoke, gas and steam that
rose, swaying with the wind, thou
sands Of feet above the crater. Many
discharges took place between the
column OF smoke and the earth, and
these are described as having been
of extraordinary intensity. The great
est measured height of the column
during the eruption was about $4,000
feet, or in round numbers 8 miles.

Good Advice For Any Town.

The board Of public works should
begin a general and thorough cleaning
up of the city from one end to the
other. Every street and alley should
be looked after and the premises
thoroughly inspected everywhere. 1t
would not only be better in the way
Of cleanliness, but 1t would give the
city a still finer appearance, and quite
likely the work might result In pre-
venting a large amount of sickness.
At the same time the sidewalks should
be put in the very best shape pos
sible, every foot OF them inspected and
orders to repair given wherever needed.
