predictions we're wide of the mark:

WIRELESS FOR WHALERS.

Seattle, Wash.-By equipping its
tugs and barges with wireless in
struments, the Tyee Whaling COM
pany has become the originator Of an
innovation in that particular line Of
business which may in time be adopt
cd by all those engaged in it. In or
der that the whaling tugs may keep
in touch with the station or base, the
barges Diamond Head and Fearless
have been fitted with Instruments
foT aerial correspondence.
In the whaling industry consider
able trouble has been experience with
the natives, who have shown them
selves only too willing to steal the
carcass of q whale whenever the op-
In-tunity offered.
The whaling tugs eght the prey,
ana after they nave safely harpoon-
Cd IT, IT is pumped full Of air and left
eating about until tender from
lie whaling base happens along to
low 1t into the place where It is to
Le converted into marketableIsub
Ces.
In the past the natives. by Selling
the floating whales. which sometimes
drift for days, have made severe in
roads on the profits Of those engaged
in the whaling industry.
BY the use Of wireless on the tugs
and barges, it will be possible for the
whaler to inform the station as soon
as a whale has been captured. an
nnnnpiHay ,tfL. II
is lying. 1t VIII thus be possible for
the whaling tender TO proceed at once
TO the scene and take the whale in
tow before the natives have a chance
10 make away with It.

gagged by cable a week ago. The cable
ordered the swellest flat in London

WHAT coLoRs MEAN ON MAPS.

The use of color on maps has now been reduced bv the best mapmaI<ers 10 a logical system. Not very long ago We saw on our own maps of the United States each state differentiated from those around it by d covering of color. X tint along the bound- aries would have answered every pur- pose and left opportunity to use col ors throughout the sheet as part of scheme of svmbolis. Many map col DTS are now copied directly from na- ture. and often those selected are particularly appropriate. as. for ex- ample. the common use of blues for rainfall maps. the deepening blue of the sea as depths increase. tthe deep eninG buffs and browns as the heights of the land augment, the yellow tints for arid and sandy regions. and greens largely used on maps dealing with pant geography. The map makers of the leading nations are approach ing one another more and more near " m their use of map colorS: and for public convenience it is hoped that some day We shall see a uni- form system of colors in all man symbolism. such questions as these are some times settled by scientific bodies. as was the case when the Geological Congress at Bologna, iE 1881, selected the coIors to be applied to the International Geological man of EurOpe.-Cyrus C. Adams in Har- per's.

GAS CARS.

That most recent development in railroadmg. the gas-electriC propelled car for short line work. is rapilly com
 ing into favor and iS being installed all oyer the country where Sparsely settled districts make il unprofitable 1a handle long steam trains.
 Perhaps d great deal of the credit fer the development of a self-propelled ear for steam line work belongs to the late r.. Ii. Hartman for it was he, at the suggestion of the superintendent of motive power of the Union Pacific. who set aside quarter of million dollars to Ievel0pe this type of cars. There were several short branches ot 1hc Union Pacific system where inire- q,r.nt trains were operated at loss and with many complaints of poor service Even while the Union Pacific was experimenting with a gasoline en- eine-propcllrd ear the General Electric company was developing a gas electric ear propelled by electric motors and securing it's power from a generator driven by a easolene engine in the for ward Dart of tine car body.

HIS BEGINNING.

Young Harold was building a chick | enhouse. He approached his fathei on the subject Of borrowing five dol | lars.
 ! But you have the money in tho bank for that purpose" persisted the i fa ther.
 'I know l have. but I wish to dem Onstrate that can produce something from nothing If you will lend me the five I will repay you with interest" His father produced the necessary capital and Harold proceeded on his financial career
 With S4 he bought the material. The remaining dollar was spent in six chickens.
 With his property as an asset he borrowed s3. giving a mortgage to an other boy. With the 8 he hired enough boys to build the house and bought enough feed to last for one month He made arrangements with the cook to supply scraps in consid- eration of the fact that he would not modest her any more: compromise.
 In six months his chickens had grown so that they produced each an egg day. or 20 cents worth. with eggs at 40 cents dozen.
 "I am now earning" said Harold proudly. enough interest on my in- vestment to declare new stock issue" He promptly waterei the stock to s25, his boy companions eagerly grabbing It up.
 Here" said Harold proudly to his father at the end in nine months. is your five l have a capital of $20 left. I shall shortly double this and enlarge my plant. It won't be long before am a millionaire"
 His mother protested Being a wo- man, she knew little of finance.
 You got something from nothing" she declared. Tt is dishonest"
 'Um." replied Harold. who was in the eighth grade, its constitutional all right. "-Thomas l.. Mason in Lippin- cott's

CHILDREN WHO SEE ANGELS

belief that children are some- times permitted to see supernatural visitors was expressed by the Bishop Of London, who preached at St. Paul's Harringay. yesterday. He urged his hearers not to regard all that chill dren said to be mere fancy. and he told a remarkable story to uphold his point.
 The father of five girls. feeling ill. had gone to lie down. The youngest girl was sent tO bed. but ran from her room calling: Come out. There are two angels walking mp the stair case" No one else could then see anything. Later the child again called out; Come out. The angels are walking down the staircase and father is walking between them"
 All the five girls saw the same thing. and goirs to their fathers room they found him dead-I.ondon Express.

AS between trains hauled by steam
 locomotives and the trolley cars. the Sasolene motor car was found espec- . ally adapted to roads where tho oth- | cr forms of transportation were not ] considered practical or economical. ] The low cost and frequent service has gone far to solve the problem of tfe
 railroads through ihinly populated ter
 ritory. where they alIeady had the
 roadbed for through traffic. but could
 not run local trainsh at q profit. On
 the other hand, there was not suffi-
 cient passenger business tO warrant the expense of electrifying inc road ar the building of separate trolley line
 One of the first roads tO use thes. cars Was the St. Joseph X Grand Is- land. and one of the most recent is the Ann Arbor Railroad. about goo miles long. and traverSing largely d rural country.

In the January's Harper's. Albert Bigelow Paine. the authorized biogra- pher of Mark Twain. tells the story of how the great humOrist began his career as a Missippi pilot. The facts of the story were all obtained from Captain Horace Bixby. who taught Mark Twain. and in 1910 was still al the wheel. In 1857 Mark Twain went aboard the Paul Jones.

He was a me- thodical man. and the teachers pre- pared the children for the occasion on lines firmly established. They knew the order of questions. He would ask of the first. who made you?'' and of the second. "Who was the first man?" and of the third. What is your duty toward your neighbour" and 90 on. in manner supposedly haphazard The teacher of one class lined her boys in a row and told them the answers they should givee. The first boy was to say God" the next was to say Adam and so on. Several classes were heard creditably. when the superin- tendent turned to one composed of ten year-olds. Well he began, my
