 How tO Possess It
(From Mans Maladies.")

A prominent physician being the things in life a man needs most?s answered.: Physical , health. strong nerves, mental ef- nciency, money and social suc- | cess. Any man possessing these i've attributes is success. Any man possessing the first three can be a success and have the other two. Possession of a sound body with strong nerves } is really the requirement. which men need most Men need ties. endurance and perseverance but In arder to have these quail ties the nerves must be strong and keenly sensitive to every s emotion. When a man has fore bodings. sensations of fear. tim idity. accompanied with such symptoms as trembling hands ness, sleeplessness. numbness, dizziness. heart palpitation, rest ] lessness, forgetfulness, melan-
 oholia. weariness without cause. and many others of e similar na-
 ture, 1t cannot be expected that he will be success financially, socially or otherwise.
 Strong virile magnetism comes . only to those whose nerves are properly nourished in a sound . body. Nature in her wisdom has supplied certain extracts, es- sences, etc., whf fch. if properly blended. will restore a normal ] keeness to the nerves so that
 any man oan feel the rich red blood surging through his body
 supplying all the elements neces- sary to derive the most out of life in all it's various phrases. For the benefit of those temp orari1y deficient in nerve strength the following ingred- ients can be obtained of any good druggist and prepared in the privacy of home. Purchase three
 ounces of syrup sarsaparilla ] compound in a six ounce bottle.
 Add one ounce of compound fluid balmwort, shake and let stand two hours. Then add one ounce tincture cadomeno compound (not cardamom) and one ounce compound essence cardioL Mix. Shake well and take teaspobn- full after each meal and one when , retiring. All distressing symp- toms will soon vanish and a com plete restoration to normal fol-
 lows.

PIGEONS HIS FRIENDS.
How They Answer Frank Mckee's
 Daily Call In Madison Square.

From the New York Times.
 Every afternoon about o'clock the pigeons which make their home on Mad ison Square Garden, the building of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. and the churches of the neigh borhood, gather in expectation on the coping of the garden. They await the shrill whistle of man in the street. and at the sound ffutter down in dozens to his fest.
 For a year or more Frank Mckee, brother of the man who married Presl- dent Harrison's daughter. has dropped over every afternoon to the corner of Madison avenue and Twenty-sfxth street with his pockets bulgtng with corn. He gives . call and the pigeons come swoop- ing down. They perch on his arms. his shoulders and his head. They peck free ly at the grain in his hands, and they even seek to get at the store still remain ing in his pockets. Those that cannot find . perch on his person walk around his feet and pick the grains from the ground.
 The pigeons arc of all shades of slate blue and brown, and they show not a trace of fear. small crowd gathers to see the sight, and, with their friend with them, the pigeons pay no attention to the strangers. The one thing that startles them is the passing of an automobile or a cart. As they hear one coming they rise with a swoop, almost knocking against the faces of the people watching them. and take refuge on Madison Square Garden. But a call from Mckee brings them back
 Mr. Mckee used to feed his flock in the early afternoon, but building operations have disturbed the neighborhood, and now he waits till the mon have knocked off for the day and the engines are still At first the birds were puzzled by his absence at the regular hour, but they have learned whom to expect him, and are as ready st 5:D as ever they were at o'clock.

Rail Road News.

The increasing demand for greater
safety and facility in railroad opera
tion has caused the Pennsylvania Rail-
road to institute new plan of training
men to maintain and operate it's sig
nails. Accordingly, there have just
been appointed four Signal apprenti-
ces; Jacob Bright, graduate of Lehigh
1910. L. J. Phillips, graduate of Shelf
field Scientific School, Yale 1910, A.
w. Fisher, 1910 graduate of Pennsyl-
vania State College, and A. II. Tasker,
graduate of Yale, 1910, Sheffield Sci
entific School.
The different divisions of the Lines
East of Pittsburg have started signal
schools where experienced signalmen
give instruction to the division signal
employees in regard to the proper
operation and maintenance of the diff
ferent signal and interlocking appli-
ances.
The Importance of this step is indi-
Gated by the fact that, whereas, in 1902
there were but 1881 interlocking
functions in operation on the Lines
East of Pittsburg, in 1908 this number
was 20, ,725-having just about tripled
in period of six years. These TO-
S35 functions are operated by s,792
levers. A total off 4Os signals are in
service, covering 1886 miles of road,
or over 20 per cent of mileage.
Signal apprentices will serve three
years course. The first year will be
spent on the mechanical end of the
work with the repair gangs, the Sec
ond year in the Office of the Supervi-
sor of Signals, and the third year on
outside work on electric and electro
pneumatic appliances. They will re-
port to the Supervisor of Signals while
taking this course.
The next place open to these men in
the position of Assistant Signal In
spector in the Signal Engineers Office.
After attaining this they will be con-
sidered in line of appointment to the
following positions: Assistant Super
visor of Signals, Supervisor of Signals,
Inspector, Assistant Signal Engineer,
and Signal Engineer.

; Butter and Butter Substitutes.

Butter and Butter Substitutes.
The great majority of people eat bu t
ter and much prefer it to any of the
substitutes which have been put on the
market. However, great many peo-
pie must use substitute on account of
the high prices which prevail during
certain months Of the year.
Olecmargine is the most common
substitute for butter and millions of
pounds of this product are consumed
each year. The difference in cost of
products n between olemargarine and
butter is 80 great that when butter is
retailed at forty cents pound, OLE
margarine may be retailed at twenty
cents at as great profit to the dealer.
The person who chooses to purchase
the substitute should be allowed to do
80 and he should be required to pay
only the price of the substitute. The
difference in price between the genuine
product and the substitute is so great
that the dealers are tempted to sell the
latter for the former. Only by re-
quiring that the consumers may differ
entiate between the two articles can
honest traffic in the substitute be insur-
ed.
This was contemplated by Congress
when the present internal revenue tax
of ten cents pound was levied upon
''artificially colored olemargarine."
Many people think that all olemargar-
inc is taxed ten cents a pound. This
is not fact. Olemargarine which is
'artificially colored" so that the con-
sumer cannot distinguish it from but
ter is the only olemargarine that is
thus taxed. When it is put upon the
market in its natural color it is only
taxed one-fourth of one cent per
pound.
1t is only when the product Is made
to look like butter 80 that It may be
fraudendently sold as butter that bur-
densome tax is imposed upon 1t. The
imposition of the tax is not to sup
press the sale of olemargarine or to
make it more expensive to the consul
mer, but to prevent fraud in its sale.
