New Use for Blotting Paper.
From Harper's Weekly,


In Germany blotting paper Is used to
clean machinery. Tow, WOODEN refuse
sponge. cloths and jute waste are the
materials usually employed for the clean
ing OF machinery and parts OF engines
which are soied by dust and lubricating
substances. The better varieties of cot
ton waste are very good for securing pur-
poses, but the cheaper grades are charged
with dust, and in using them sponge
cloth, specially manufactured for the pur-
pose, is employed. In using blotting
paper for. securing purposes the use of
cotton waste is decreased and the sponge
cloths are entirely dispensed with. On all
average the German workman received
under the former system go grams of
cotton waste, one new sponge cloth and
one or two renovated ones every week.
Now he is supplied with 100 grams of
cotton waste. and about eight or ten
sheets of blotting paper, at cost of
two and half cents, or one-third the
cost of the cotton waste. The paper Is
not only cheaper. but it does not soil the
machinery with fibers and dust, as do the
wooden refuse and the sponge cloths. 1t
is also less combuStible than other clean
ing materials. and if it should be caught
in the machinery while engines in motion
are being cleaned, it tears easily, and
the workmen run no risk of having their
hands drawn into the machinery.

History and Romance.
the pittsburg Dispatch.

From the PittsburS Dispatch.
Now, what do you think of this? Mrs.
Charles Henrotin, addressing the High
land Park Women's Club at Chicago,
said: Our history has no picturesque
ness: il is the most duh and limited his
tory of any great nation and the reason
is that woman has been ignored Woman
makes history romantic and interesting.
Napoleon inspired the love of women and
their admiration. but you cannot say so
much of Washington. Compare Joseph
Inc and Mrs. Washington and you can
see how much the feminine element was
empha sized in the former and forgotten
in the life Of the father of his country
If this comparison represents her ideal
of what history should he, then Amer-
cans can be thankful that history
does not meet with her approval. We
are willing to let other nations furnish
material for best sellers and problem
novels while our Presidents and states
men continue TO live the lives OF dece It
American citizens. ClevelandS GeScrip-
ton of the sequence Of that White House
wedding as zone grand sweet song is
worth more than all the romance of a
hundred Napoieonic divorce scandals.

Rallies Trolley.

From Casters Magazine.
The raiiless traction system may be
considered as holding a place between
that of the petrol motor omnibus and
the electric tramway 1t shares with the
motor bus the advantages of large saving
in initial capital expenditure and the
ability to be steercd around Instructions,
while at the same time it has the ad-
vantage of using the series electric mo-
tor which possesses ideal properties for
traction purposes.
The great feature of this system, of
course, is the freedom from the expense
IF track construction, and consequently
also. from the additional high cost of
right of way. In the matter Of operating
cost the railless system is free from the
expense of maintenance of track has a
correspondinely low burden for amorti-
cation. The consumption of current per
tonmle is greater than with the tram
way, but this is largely Offset by the
fact that the weight of the vehicle is
much less. If the consumption Of cur
rent Is less than double, and the weight
Of the vehicle is about one-half the
actual cost for current will naturally be
less for the railless system than for the
tramWay
