The surgeon dressed, and found a
trap waiting to take him to a farm two
or three miles away from the village.
On the way he asked few questions
about the case he was to attend.

refresh the eyes of the people coming

RAILWAY SIGNAL SCHOOLS.
Apprentices Take Three Year Course
in Block SionaIs


The Pennsylvania Railroad has e.
tablished signal schools ON the d.
visions Of its line east of Pittsburg to
train men for the signal service Of
the system. This is due, says the
Bookkeeper, to the rapid growth Of
block signaling which is in use along
these lines. There are some 12,408
signals east of Pittsburg, covering
1885 miles of road.
The railroad has appointed six sig
nal apprentices who will be trained as
engineers to direct and plan signal
installations. Apprentices In these
schools will serve a three years
course. The first year will be given
to mechanical work with the repair
and construction gangs, the second
year will find them in the Office of the
supervisor of signals, and the third
year will be devoted to outside work
on electric and electro-pneumatic ap-
pliances.

In a Nutshell.
Alcohol is a nOisOn

Alcohol is a poison.
1t is claimed by some that alcohol
is food. If SO, it is poisoned food.
The daily regular use of alcohol,
even in moderation, often leads to
chronic alcoholism.
One is poisoned less rapidly by the
use of beer than by drinking wines,
gin, whiskey and brandy.
Alcohol is one of the most common
causes of insanity, epilepsy, paralysis,
diseases of the liver and stomach,
dropsy and tuberculosis.
A father or mother who drinks,
poisons the children born to them, SO
that many die in Infancy, while others
