doubts that but for an accident his

A fort presents better target than

against dropping missiles, especially
at its xitals. Any protection lacking
can easily be supplied the moment a

Our Extravagant Habit.

Our Extravegant Habit.
It may seem a strange thing TO tho
average citizen. but It is fact that
Wall street has been thinking Of our
national tendency to increased extrav-
agance for many months. James J.
Hill in saying that we are a nation of
spenders and that we are growing
reckless in our extravaganza is but
repeating the warning he himself has
been giving from time to time.
We are money making nation, but
we are not thrifty. We are imbued
with the Micawber theory that ex-
penditures trifle above our income is
good finance. If we had the French
notion of thrift with our tremendous
resources and our great capacity for
earning we would be far richer as q
nation and much more powerful among
the countries Of the world. In the
family Of nations we are the brilliant
boy of. great capacity, but with such
reckless habits of expenditures that
there is as to us distrust-a fear that
sooner or later we will come a cropper
because Of our rapid gait.

THE STOMACH.
It's Power to Resist Its Own Gastric
Juices Is a Puzzle.

It's Power to Resist It's Own Gastric
Juices Is Puzzle.
One Of the greatest questions dis
turbing the minds of Psychologists
both past and present is that Of the
stomach's digesting powers. 1t is
asked why the stomach does not digest
itself. 1t is well known that gastric
juices have the power to digest the It's
sue of which the stomach is made.
One Of the things actually manufac-
tured by the body, secreted in the
glands near the stomach and poured
into it, is hydrochloric acid. a power
full agent that will eat up almost any
thing. Why it does not eat the stomach
up is predetermined.
1t is known that stomach from a
dead animal or man can be digested
by living man. 1t has been found
out also that when a man is killed
accidentally and his stomach is in the
process Of digesting. If the body be
kept warm. his whole stomach will be
digested and possibly, too. adjacent
organs. as liver. pancreas, etc. From
this 1t was argued that the 'principle
of iife'' kept the process from going
on in living being. Subsequently.
however. this was proved to be untrue
A living frog was put in an uncon-
scious condition and his leg inserted
through small hole in dogs
stomach. the dog being alive and we'll
1t was found that the frogs leg was
wholly digested in the process, al
though living. SO the last reason con-
ceivable was proved incapable of ex-
planning the phenomenon.
About the only conclusion left is that
the stomach does gradually actually
eat itself up. but that it is being con-
stantly rebuilt. However, as this ex-
pertinent is hard to perform and as no
results have so far been announced in
this direction. we are left in a state Of
absolute ignorance. and all we can do
is to be devoutly thankful TO Provi-
dence that our stomachs do not digest
themselves except in the ordinary
course of human events.-Lawrence
Hodges in New York Tribune.

D0DGED THE DUELS.
voitaire's Disastrous Attempts 20 Make
De Rohan Eioht.


Literary men in dueling times and
countries have always been rather
prone to get into trouble from which
only passage at arms could extricate
them. Voltaire had at various turns
number of duels on his hands, but
counted among them two which did
not reach the expected climax.
One Of these was his affair with the
Chevalier de Rohan Chabot, who goad-
ed him to the point Of fighting and
then. instead of giving him the salts
faction demanded, had him lured into
a coach and soundly whipped with
switches by some hirelings concealed
there
Voltaire, after trying in vain to in
duce one of his noble friends to back
him in his further pursuit of his en-
envy, appealed to the municipal author
tiles in these phrases: 81 humbly rep
resent that l have been brutally as
saulted by the courageous Chevalier
de Rohan, aided by six cutthroats,
behind whom he was bravely posted.
Ever since that time I have sought to
restore not my honor. but his, task
too difficult
AS this public affront failed to pro-
duce any effect, Voltaire hunted out
the chevalier one evening at the thea
ter and flung insults in his face there
Rohan at last consented to meet him,
but. contrived to let the news reach
other members Of the Rohan family,
who had Voltaire arrested and thrown
into the Bastille.-New York Post.

Water Power Grants In Norway.
/ Norway's system Of protecting the
state while granting water power
privileges to private operators is Of
interest at this time. BY terms Of
recent legislation passed by the Nor.
wegian parliament all water power
privileges exceeding 1000 horsepower
revert to the nation at the expiration
Of the concession period, which can
not be for more than eighty years.
Native and foreign companies are
placed upon the same footing in all
respects.
Strong attempts to make the ex.
emption cover all under 5000 horse
power failed. because the sentiment
Of the country opposed the giving Of
valuable interests to private monopo-
lists. All regulating works connected
with the water power and the power
stations with their equipment become
the property Of the state when the
concession expires. and all other prop.
erty connected with the working Of
the water power plant may be &C.
quired by eminent domain proceed

moval Of the same within a given pc
Rod. Conditions in Norway are ia.

TINE FREIGHT CARS.

Traced BY houeiy Reports the Wheels
LsnsA Of Their Run.
A freight car is essentially common
property. 1t has to 80 from one line to
another in the course Of its business.
1t has to carry loads from Jackson
vile. Fla, to Spokane. WASH; from
Phoenix. Ariz.. to Augusta, Me. II all
the freight cars in the United States
were owned by one big company and
If that company charged the railroads
for the exact amount of use which
they made of each car the situation
would theoretically be more reasonable
than it is today.
But in any case the Wanderings Of
freight cars will always entail an enor-
nous amount Of labor with pen and
pencil and telegraph key and typewrit-
er and long distance telephone, writes
William Hard in the Technical World
Magazine. ..-
The modern hunter of freight cars
Is not satisfied with knowing where
all the cars on his own lines are at the
end OF each days run. Modern bust
ness life has become so rapid that in
the case Of certain kinds of freight it
1s necessary to know just where each
car Is every few hours. This kind Of
freight is called time freight.
Ordinary freight is dead freight.
Time freight consists only of certain
materials. These materials run alpha
betically all the way from asbestus.
through cranberries. egg case filters.
Ink, peanuts and varnish. down to
zinc. All cars in time freight trains
are reported by telegraph from all d.
vision points.
You can stand in front of big board
on the wall-it is like the board in a
stockholders Office except that it has
little holes in it-and watch the prog
ress of the cars in time freight train
from point to point. As the kilograms
come in the pegs are moved from hole
to hole. If you started a carload of
varnish from Chicago to Omaha last
night you can come in today and see
just where that car is. You can watch
1t all the way to Omaha on the board.
1t is cruel humiliation for the
freight car. It used to be wild stray
animal. but now it is tanned and do
mesticated. Just as we now have mu-
nicipal lodging houses for tramps, so
we have telegraph record boards for
freight cars. Pretty soon nobody will
be able to escape from the authorities.
It is only occasionally under modern
methods g. freight car tracer has to go
out and bring it home by force.
