Poor Man,s lnxestment.

According to the Electric Railway Journal, one of the best investments which 1t is possible for man to make is when he spends cents for a street car ride of ordinary length, say, three miles or so. The man who earns as little as Is cents an hour for his labor would, in walking to his work, con- sume at least 10 cents worth of tinss;, instead of the cents spent on the street car. In addition to this, the nickel surrendered to the street car company is an assurance to him against accident, while if he rides in an automobile, or even If he walks to his work, he would be obliged to pay all damages in case of accident. Furthermore, the time spent on the street car can be spent in reading,

USE WOMEN AS lNSPECToRs
Ia Certain Lines Railroads Find That They Do Better Work Than
 Men.

Every railroad that makes a spe- cialty of fine trains and caters to wealthy patronage must take great care that a high standard of service be maintained. The best of every thing in parlor and dining car must be provided for class of travellers who have the money to pay for lux uries. In order to do this a close supervision is required, and the of ficials of such road have learned that women make the very best inspectors for this class of work
 The type of woman that makes the greatest success is the one who is used to good things herself, and so can order the most expensive meal and know if it is served correctly. But these women are hard to find. Once found, they have the "softest" job gO- ing. Three times a day they are re- quired to enter the dining car and order a repast that will tax the wait CTS ability to serve correctly and the pantry to supply.
 All through the dinner the inspec- tor notes the tablecloth, whether it be Ol oOllCu OHS IudhCS d uOIO OL the fact if the waiter is impudent or surly, taking his number. If the food is insufficient or poorly served on nicked dishes her feminine mind makes mental notation of it. If the silver Is not clean, the carpet dusty, the water warm, or a hundred other things, she is supposed to corral them all in her memory until she embod- ies them in a written report. The same rigid inspection of the parlor car is another of her duties, and in cidentally while doing both she must look out for grating on the part of the employees, walters in particular.
 The woman who does this kind of work may be either young or old, but she must be refined and have the ap- pearance of being an old traveller. A woman who is travelling for pleasure 1 is usually the pose adopted. On each trip she makes an inspection of as many tables and as many walters as she can without arousing suspicion Workers Magazine.

NEW TYPE OF LOCOMOTIVE
ing With What Is Known as the Turbine-EIectric."

The North British railway officials are predicting great things for a new type of locomotive, known as the
 turbine-electric," which it has been testing. The tests have proved satis- factory as far as they have prog ressed. The locomotive is a self contained, steam-electric generating affair. Steam is generated in 9 boiler of the ordinary locomotive type, fitted with superheater: The steam. is then led to turbine of the impulse running type, making 5000 revolu- tions minute. To this is directly connected continuous current, varia- ble voltage dynamo. yhe dynamo supplies current and pressure varying from 200 to 600 volts to four series wound traction motors, the armatures of which are built on the four main driving axles of the locomotive.
 The exhaust steam from the tur- bine passes into an ejector conden- ser, and is eventually delivered to the hot well. AS the steam turbine re- quires no internal fabrication, the condensed hot water Is free from oil and is returned direct from the hot well to the boiler by a feed pump Thus the water evaporated by the boiler Is returned to it again and again. A forced draft is provided by means of small turbine driving fan.
 The controlling instruments are all on the drivers platform and within easy reach. The switchboard is small, and the operation of the loco motive is simple. Its inventors pre- dict that it will make a great saving in railroad transportation and opera ton cost, and make identification a fact of the near future without the necessity of costly wiring.

oped, you might buttGnhole all but the clasp end of the pin in bright colored silk or cotton.
 Many buttons for coats and other outer garments are so heavy that no amount of sewing will keep them firm ly and permanently in place. Usually they have a metal loop at the back; and in this chse pin them on by means of small but strong safety-pins, fasten- ing the pin securely into the goods. Be sure that it is small enough to be out of sight after the button Is on.
 Here are simply few suggestions for the wider use of safety-pins i'm prove upon them and see what can be done with the baby's friend and the nasty dresser's salvation.-Ex- change.

cabooss With q Record.

"The caboose with the farthest north record" said H. H. Spaulding of Pittsburg, 'fs now resting in digni- fled retirement at Shohola, Pa. It Is one. of the show places of that com munity.
 When Peary was preparing his ex- petition of about twelve years ago he obtained from the Erie railroad one of those dumpy little cabooses that manage to shelter in some marvellous manner a crew of five or six men. This was put on board the Windward, his vessel. as temporary deckhouse. The people of Shohola know more about this expedition that they do about the. one on which Peary found the pole. They will tell you that the dismantled car was used as a shelter by Peary and his companions during the winter night which they spent at Etah. So the car evidently holds the record for a journey to the northern attitudes"

The Shepherdess Hat.

The she pherdess hat, which was shown last autumn but failed to find favor in the eyes of the fair. is again appearing in more attractive guise among the ne " millinery for the south. That tn e autumn models were not successful VAS not surprising, for they were stranl Iely stif and hard and 1t would be impt >sSible to imagine a shepherdess hat in connection with winter coats an u furs. No doubt shepherdesses mu St continue to exist in winter. but thei. pieturesqueness Is 8 thing of the sui r1ner only Shep- herdess hats of les morn decked with roses seem much iore rational than the same style of hapeau in shiny hlack satin and feat ters.

USES FOR SAFETY PIN
ACCORDING TO THIS THEY ARE
 MANY AND VARIED.
Seemingly One of the Chief AdJuncts of the Dressing Room-Much to Commend It Even as Key
 Ring.

What Is safety-pin good for be- sides pinning?" I hear some needless creature say. What, indeed Why, very much, as these few hints of the possible will show
 When you have beading to thread in waists of lingerie, pin one end with large safety-pin and run it through with this as a bodkin. It is much better than an ordinary bodkin, as 1t cannot get unthreaded and is easily recovered if lost in the beading.
 Use the humble safety-pin also in the fastening of belts on wash dresses. Not in the obvious manner heaven forbid!-but attach the pin to one end of the ribbon or lawn so that it forms metal loop, so to speak, and on the other end, inside, sew two ordinary dress hooks. Leave a short end over, so as to hide the pin.
 To hang heavy skirts, etc, in a closet where there is not much room.

AT THE CRILDREN'S PARTY
Fun That Youngsters Will Enjoy Is by No Means Hard to Ar
 range.

The hostess who can think up nev way of serving refreshments at shild's party will be well repaid for the trouble taken by the interest and fun the youngsters will extract from it.
 Novel and highly successful was the manner of serving the goodies at party lately given. The children were asked to come into the dining-room. They found on the table a small cen terpiece and a vase of carnations and on one corner large package. When this was opened 1t was found to con tain a cloth which the mother looked at in surprise but spread on the ta- ble.
 The hostess then dispatched one of the children to obtain a package from the china closet, and this was found to contain paper napkins. third box on the sideboard contained dell cious sandwiches.
 By this time the children were be- coming interested, and when a little girl was sent out into the kitchen to find a hens nest the fun ran high, for she disco vered it to be a dish of dev- fled eggs reposing in the crown of a farmers hat.

propplna Coaches on the Run.

The ingenious means by which one of the great railroad systems of Eng land drops passenger coaches off at intermediate stations without slowing up the locomotive, even for a fraction of a second, in it's speed of 60 or more miles an hour is called the "slir. coach" system, and is described in Popular Mechanics.
 It is a system never tried t.n Amer ica, and consists in droppiD>y or "slip- ping" one or more of the rear coaches just before the station t's reached. Un- doubtedly many Arierican tourists travelling in Engl~ d, after alighting at their destination, have been amazed to discover thzt the coach which they occupied wa.s still beside them, while the locomotive and the remainder of the traIn were nowhere to be seen.

CnlS way.
 Inquiries which have been made seem very completely to verify the complaints on the subject.
 My wife, my children and I spent our holiday in Devon," one informant states, and in my innocence I sent our luggage in advance, thinking that I should save money in cab fare and in porterage, and that I should have no worry.
 Instead am 31O out of pocket and there is no redress.
 My luggage, when it left my house, was packed in good trunks and stout bags. When it arrived in Devon it was enclosed in battered boxes and crumpled bags.
 There was one new tin trunk. It was neatly japanned in black. for in- stance. and 1t had cost me s.
 When I retrieved it 1t was dented, scratched. battered and its enamel was gone. There were the marks Of boots on 1t and it looked old and worn. The Gladstone bags seemed to have suffered at the feet of horses in a cavalry charge, 50 battered and bruised were they.
 Last year took my luggage with me, and, on the whole, it travelled without much mutilation. So asked friend who Is an official of a great railway company if he could explain received such treatment when they were sent in advance.
 It Is the country porters who have done this to your luggage, he said. They have to handle luggage sent in advance. and they get no tips for do ing 90 .y-ss

 "'They slam 1t down from heights with malice aforethought; they bump across platforms with wilful intent to damage 1t, and they spill 1t from trucks in the confident hope of re- ducing its value by more than they would have received in tips from the owners had they accompanied it."
 Another correspondent gives an eye witness account of the style of treat ment. to which advance luggage Is subjected.

Some Valuable Little Hints for the Women Who Make Their Own
 Garments at Home.

Don't open a lingerie waist in front unless you wish to say adieu to all style.
 Don't use deep navy blue this win ter when bright shade and royal blue are the newer tones.
 Don't save on any Things or notions In dressmaking.
 Don't buy cheap black goods when aecent quality repays you twofold.
 Don't try to use stitching as a trim ming unless you know your machine and have straight eye"
 Don't make a walking skirt to "dip' at the back; let it hang evenly all around. .,---1
 Don't begin your home dressmaking with tailored suit, this requires ex- periencA.
 With paper patterns of exclusive make you will find the extra shoulder and underarm seam allowance suf1- cient for any ordinary alterations; if not you need a larger pattern Pin your pattern together and try 1t on if you do not cut one of cheap muslin and make 1t up, thus save slashing in- to dress goods until you are sure that you are right.
 Shape the bottom edge of skirt exactly with the pattern or it will nev- CT hang evenly. Use snap fastenings at the placket opening and anywhere .elze you can. Keep your clothes push ed down about the waistline, the short ening of which indicates the flight of youth.

 About fifteen hundred feet from the highway crossing thus protected, a number of six-foot sections of contact rails are bolted to the regular tracks. To these are connected starting relays in such manner that the tread of the passes over, but there are no moving parts.

AS laundry work Is a serious prob lem in our home, I recently made a dozen doilies from red and white checked toweling. These doilies are 12 inches square, and were simply hemmed on the sewing machine. They are placed under the children's plates, under the meat platter, and under dishes containing fruit or vegetables that are liable to spill while being served. These doilies, or mats. are easily washed, and my table doilies keep clean three times as long as formerly. They can also be used at luncheon on a bare table.-Suburban life.

Tunnel Does Away With Ferries.

The two-track tunnel of the Michi- gan Central railroad, which for sev- eral years has been under construc- tion beneath the Detroit Eiver, be- tween Detroit and Windsor, Ont, has been opened for service. It was con- sidered desirable to famili,arize the operating staff of the railroad with conditions before passenger service was inaugrated, and therefore the first trains run through were freight trains. This tunnel will take the place of the powerful railroad car fer ries. which for so many years have been a prominent feature in transpor- tation at this point-Scientffic Ameri- can
