WHEN THE KING TRAVELS.
Busy Time for Every Worker on the
Railroad

A royal visit is a busy time to
more than the prospective host and
hostess. for those who are respon'
sible for their safe transportation,
from the President of the railroad to
the humblest laborer, have their
hands full. The royal special is
very sumptuous affair. The Kings
car contains bedroom, dressing room,
and bathrooms, day room, and smok-
ing room, which are all fitted up
with electrical devices, from electric
heaters and fans to cigar lighters.
The Queens car is daintiness itself,
and is furnished in satinwood. ivory,
rosewood. and mahogany. The dec
orations are so exquisite that when
not in use the car is kept in a spe-
cial shed of even temperature, SO
that the works of art may not be
spoiled by heat, dampness, or cold.
There is a storeroom at the end OF
the special for the various belong
ings which the royal couple always
take.
There is room at all the large
London terminals specially fitted for
the use of the King and Queen, and
the timetables of the royal couple
are always printed in letters of gold.
The whole train is thoroughly exam
ined an hour before they get aboard,
and a complete staff Of telegraphers
under an electrical engineer is in
stalled on it. This enables communi.
cation to be established with the
world about at any point that may be
desired Needless to say, the finest
locomotive on the line is always Sc
lected, and both the chief engineer
and permanent way engineer accom-
pany the train, which has as driver
the most trustworthy veteran in the
service. For at least half an hour
before the special is due no train,
except a pilot, which has been sent
fifteen minutes ahead Of it, is allow
ed on or across the tracks, and all
facing points are locked and stations
and crossings guarded And then
there is spread along the whole way
every few hundred yards an army OF
watchers. each of whom has red
and green flag.-American HoU

each year.
The provincial authorities are
bound to provide special machines to

the sum of $4,000 yearly toward the
anti-pellagra campaign, while the
Ministry of Agriculture contributes
an equal sum, which is to be dis
tributed in prizes and subsidies to
encourage the anti-pellagra campaign.
The same law ordered the free dis
tribution of salt, a Government mon
opoly, to all poor pellagrins and their
families, and the appointment of ex-
perts to analyze the corn used for
food by the peasants. The authorI-
ties are bound to exchange good for
faulty corn.
Other measures adopted by the
Government against pellagra consist

Da Vinci Had the Idea First.

Now that the aviators are as
sembled, it is opportune to remember
that the first man who got the the
ory of the flying machine right was
no less a person than the painter
Leonardo da Vinci. He pictured it
as heavier than air, provided with
wings, and lifted, in spite of its
weight, by the rapid revolutions OF
a propeller. The difficulty was to
find a means of making the pro-
peller reyolve with sufficient rapid
ity in an age in which steam and
electricity, to say nothing of petrol
was still unknown. Leonardo had
an idea that it might be done by
clockwork, or by setting a number

minding babies and mending socks

New Kind of Trunk.

In recent years there has been such
a marked improvement in trunks that
it is nov possible to travel all over
the country and keep ones clothes IN
as good shape as ii hanging in the
wardrobe at home. Not so long ago
a traveller who could locate any one
article in his trunk without claWlng
the entire contents into chaos was a
man of unsual deXterity, and, at the
end of a long journey, everything
was jammed in one corner. The COM
bination trunk designed by New
York man is so constructed that 1t
will always stand on one end, the top
and sides having convex projections
which insure this. The drawers of
this trunk are so pivoted that they
can be tilted to either a vertical or a
horizontal position. There is gener-
Gus number of drawers and flaps, and
the trunk is especially convenient for

the old-style prop had done service so
long that there could be no improve

shortcoming of the old wooden pole
is that in wind it is soon dislodged

the clean clothes to drag back and

pole is supplied with a double hook,
which prevents the pole from leaving

LESS PELLAGRA IN ITALY.
Government Measures Against the
Disease PROVING Successful.

government measures Against tne
Disease Proving Successful.
Pellagra, the malady Of misery, as
it is commonly called, and malaria,
the two endemic diseases of Italy,
are the scourge of the poor. The
two diseases rarely overlap. Gener-
ally where pellegra ends malaria be-
gins.
Pellagra exists in forty-four Of the
siyty-nine provinces of Italy. 1t ex-
tends from Piedmont to Rome, from
northern to central Italy. The 1tal'
ian Government has undertaken the
extirpation of both pellagra and ma
laria and has accomplished much in
this direction.
A special law was passed by Par
lament in 1902 to combat the NAL
adv, several special hospitals known
as pellagrosari and exclusively used
for this disease have been founded.
a large sum of money is annually
contributed to provide pellagrins with
nourishing food and many other
measures shave been taken with the
object of eradicating the scourge.
The success of the campaign may be
seen in statistics which show that
pellagra is diminishing steadily. Be-
tween 1881 and 1899 pellagra had d.
minished by about one-third, while
during the last ten years it has di-
minished by half. Besides, pellagra
has also diminished in intensity. The
malady has almost entirely disappear
ed from Piedmont and Liguria, and
it is decreasing in Lombardy. Vene-
to and Emilia This decrease is en-
tirely due to the preventive measures
taken against pellagra and especial
" to the laws of 1902.
