Six Years of MeIIen.

Even here in New England we some times fail to realize what a change has come over the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad since MT. MeIlen took charge of it; but the scope and importance of the change are well set forth in the January number of The Outlook. The energetic president of the New Haven system has well-nigh remade it. He has proved himself a strategist as well as a financier and practical railway operator; and, thanks to his foresight. the railroad is in a better position than ever before
 Circumstances have led it to expand to Lake Ontario and into Pennsylva- mia. through the medium of the Onta- rio & Western road; to acquire the Central New England road and the Poughkeepsie bridge; to obtain control also of the Boston & Maine, nearly all the Sound lines of steamboats and a large proportion of the electric railway trackage of New England. This is, of course, sweeping monopoly. But if the New Haven serves its public thoroughly it will do much to avert the odiuTn that attaches to that word Providence Journal

They are Iovable. however, and their lives con vey a lesson. The rapid pace of the one we deplore; at the fertility of the others life we have only to shake our head.
 Take, now, the other sex. Women know how to do these things. The purest of women to sustain the Affec- tion of the one man she cares for will condescend to species of tricxery.

Heating Outdoors to Save Fruit.

r1edIIh9 OuCOOorS 10 SaNe fruIr-
 The 1909 crop of fruit in the Grand Valley in Colorado, from the Palisades above to Loma below, valued at S3 O00,- 900, owes it's existence to unique battle which was waged against Jack Frost at time when the fruit was at tis tenderest age. By unusual gen. eralship and the work of hundreds of enthusiastic volunteers the tempera- ture in these orchards was actually raised eight and nine degrees over 27 miles of territory, and a precedent was established which will mean much to the future.
 The raising of the temperature over this large area was accomplished by means of some 300,o0 smudge pots of many different types some burning at intervals in these orchards. Oil was car ried to the pots in wagon tanks equip ped for the purpose Spraying ma the oil A large supply of lighters was kept in readiness in a dry place. Many of these lighters were made by wrap ping waste about a twisted wire.
 All operations were directed from Grand Junction. Weather stations es- tablished of the territory and equip ped with thernostats, when the threat ening weather arrived made half hour 1y reports of the temperature to Grand Junction. When finally the danger point was approaching, warning was sent to all ranchmen to light the fires. Volunteers in nearly all walks of life made Lner way Tn automobiles and wagons and on bicycles over the entire area.
 So well did this orchard heating idea work that while the temperature out side of the heated area dropped as low as 20 degrees, within the heated area it did not go below 29 1-2. Seventy five per cent of all the fruit trees which were in bloom were cared for directly, while even orchards owned by those who were skeptical of the idea were saved by the fires in the adjoin- ing territory.-Scientif1s American.

~Pat" sheedy's Expensive Eating.

Johnnie Stevenson of New York, who has probably sat in as many poker games as the next man, dropped in for chat with the sporting editor.
 Pat Sheedy was the squarest sport ever knew" Johnnie said after mus ing awhile. He then told several stories of the man who originated the game of betting on the weather.
 Leaving Chicago late in the sos with $2OO. 900, Pat headed for Monte Carlo. His advent was sfgnalized by a lucky streak, and at the end of II days he was playing to a gallery of continental sports. Russian dukes, German barons. Austrian countesses and a miscellaneous assortment of tourists by whom he was regarded as an American millionaire. On the 12th night Sheedy went broke. He cabled to a friend in Chicago. The message said:
 6 I've got to eat. Cable me a thou sand to Grand Hotel Paris. I may pay it back some day. Sheedy struck an other winning streak later and cabled the money back to Chicago with the admonition: Don't. bet this on any, thing I may need it. Europe is an expensive place.
 @Sheedy would bet on anything, par ticularly faro" said Stevenson. "He was playing at a club in Hot Springs, Ark, eight or ten years ago. and luck was against him. At the end of a ten hours session he owed the bank S31,- 600. Turning in his chair to Charlie De MiIt, who was running the game, he said:
 Say. Charlie, that's all I'm good for in cash. but I have a picture painted by fellow named Rubens that a man named Freer in Detroit wants to buy. I'm due to get $35.000 for my share of the deal Will you take chance on it"
 Sure, Pat. go as far as you like.' De Milt replied.
 "Sheedy did so. and lost sS.000 of his prospective profits from the picture deal with the millionaire F'reer. The first payment he made after the sale was the $S.0OO to De Milt-'
