EXAMINATION CAR IN USE.
Pennsylvania Railroad Employees
Put Through Signal Tests.

An important feature OF the extensive
educational work which the Pennsylvania
Railroad is carrying on among its en-
ployes is the operation or what is called
the signal examination car. This Is con-
tinually moving from place 10 place IN
charge OF an examiner who puts the men
through tests designed TO keep them at a
high standard OF competency.
The car is equipped with miniature
signals for the purpose OF examining en-
ployes in their operation. Sight, sense or
color, and hearing are also tested on
entrance to the service and periodically
thereafter.
Approaching the value OF direct per-
sonal instruction, the Pennsylvania HALL
road is endeavoring in every possible way
to increase the efficiency or operation by
seeing to II that employees IN the rank
and file are advised continually about all
improvements and innovations which go
to make travelling safer for the public
and railroading less hazardous for all en-
ployes.
The company now has on the road IN
structiOn cars for giving air-brake in
struction, lessons IN signaling, and lessons
in electric car-lighting.

constantly filled with the latest materials.
Mr.. Horn says, and this display will be
changed regularly and Will give all pa
irons a chance TO see what the shop is
able to produce.
Mr.. Horn started as a tailor IN this
city twenty-eight years ago. opening a
small shop on the square which he Is
now leaving. He has been in the pres
ent establishment sixteen years.
He attributes his success to newspaper
advertising when first started in busi-
ness" he said the other day, Il had only
very small establishment I did not then
know the value OF newspaper advertising.
A cousin who visited me advised me TO
try the newspapers. When did I was
greatly surprised at the results, and since
then I have been advertising constantly,
and this has meant a constant growth OF
business"

BY CHARLES DICK.

Many who favor a contributory system
of civil pensions do It largely on the
ground that It will entail no expense to
the government except that OF admins
tration and the payment Of interest, and
will be entirely supported by the contri-
buttons OF the clerks. OF course, IL Is
very important to distinguish between
the liability for pensions due those who
have already reached the retiring age or
will soon reach that age and the pensions
that would accrue to those who are still
young or will hereafter enter tho service.
The rocks on which other civil service
pension schemes have sometimes split has
been the appropriation Of the contribu-
tions Of the young clerks TO pay annuitles
to clerks who are so old that they con-
tribute very little toward their own PEN
sions. Plans have been suggested by
which the annuities that would be pay
able immediately on the passage Of a
retirement law 10 aged clerks would be
paid by the contribution OF those In the
civil service but experience seems TO in
dictate that such a plan would never be
popular with Federal employees because
OF the large assessments that would be
necessary.
Not SeIf-supportinE.
1t may be stated broadly that no con-
ticabIe can be self-supporting. Before
New Zealand enacted Its retirement and
pension law OF 1901 1t had fun and
careful Investigation made Of the proba-
bla cost Of tile system, in order to have
a basis for determining what portion OF
the expense could reasonably be charged
to the employees and what portion must
be assumed by the government. The
actuary who figured the cost based his
estimates on the returns as to age and
salary OF the 5.59s persons to whom the
law was intended to apply. He figured
the contribution necessary to be paid TO
secure without government assistance all
the law as follows:
At age eighteen. Sc OF salary; at
the benefits intended TO be conferred by
50: at twenty-eight. IS;
It thirty-three, io.4: at thirty-eight. Ill;
lt forty-three. l2i; at forty-eight, l2s;
1t fifty-three, 1876; at fifty-elght r7.s.
This is an average Of u per cent Of the
salaries OF the civil employees. The law
IS enacted only required payment as fol-
lows:

FLIP" PLAIN DOG,
VALUABLE ASSET.
He Serves as Cook, Maid, BellbOy,
Burglar Alarm, and Saves.
Owner $1,000 a Year.

Playing the role Of cook, maid. valet
bellboy, guard against fire and burglars,
an other parts too numerous to mention.
Flip" a mongrel canine, saved from
starvation while astray in the streets last
winter, has proved himself probably the
most valuable dog in the National Cap
ital by saving his master and mistress
approximately 5000 year. Flip is still
IN that stage known as puppyhood, and
each day learns some new trick or ac-
complishment which aids his owners In
reducing the high cost OF living. As
the dog is IN the best health and proba-
bly, will live TO ripe old age. his master
likely would refuse an offer Of $4,000 II
any one would care to part with small
fortune in order TO possess Flip.
Flip lives in apartment S02 in the Ath-
erton, which is leased by his owners, Mr..
and Mrs. E. Elmer Harmon, both OF
whom are deaf mutes. He came into
possession Of Mr.. Harmon one stormy
night last winter. Flip was nearly
frozen when he was found by Mr.. Han
non and carried to the warmth OF the
apartment. The pup soon revived and
took up tho work Of learning how TO aid
the kindly young man and woman, who
are at a peculiar disadvantage because
Of their infirmity.
Before Flip was adopted as jack-of-alI-
trades IT was necessary for Mr.. Harmon
10 employ a cook and a maid, one for
day duty and the other for night, their
services being secondary in Importance
to the companionship they afforded Mrs
Harmon. One of the chief duties of the
servants was to answer the door bell and
the bell rung in the lobby of the apart
ment by letter carriers, visitors, and
tradesmen. Mrs. Harmon could not hear
the ring Of bell and found II always
necessary to have some one present who
could respond 10 a summons.
The maid was employed to remain in
the apartment at night so as to warn
Mr.. and Mrs. Harmon in the event of
fire and in addition to this protection,
Mr. Harmon paid premiums on life and
household insurance. Tips TO the janitor
also were necessary and the young couple
were forced to many expenses which
those who can talk and hear do not have
to meet. Then Flip" came.
He learned to bark when the door or
tube bell rang and to run to his master
or mistress with his news. leading them
10 the doorbell or tube bell after he had
attraeted attention by jumping ABOUT and
wagging his tail. He was taught how to
run downstairs and get the mail from
the carrier and perform innumerable
tricks. Mr.. Harmon found II unnecessary
10 employ servants, as Flip" not only
served as companion in day and night,
but could interpret sounds 10 them.
Mr. Harmon has been figuring recently
and the following table shows how Flip"
saves his master 81 900 per annum.

WOMEN AND HEALTH.

Women are beginning to realize
more fully that good health is not to
be found in the use of cosmetics and
face powders. The appearance OF
health may follow facial treatment,
but health itself lies much deeper than
the surface.
Most important to the health Of ev.
cry woman is regularity Of the bowels
and digestive organs. The weary
eyes, abad breath, frequent headaches,
pimples and general air of lassitude,
is in most every case due to consti-
patton or Indigestion, or both. There
are various remedies prescribed for
this condition, but the easiest, most
pleasant and certainly effective, is
a combination of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin known to druggists
as DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. This
simple remedy is far preferable to
harsh salts and catharttcs and violent
purgative waters that disturb the
whole system without afording more
than temporary relief.
DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin is a
tonic laxative, mild in its action,
pleasant to the taste and positive in
its effect, strengthening the muscles
of stomach and bowels so that after
a short time these organs regain the
power to perform their natural func-
tons without assistance.
DR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold
by druggists everywhere in soc and
$100 bottles. If you have never tried
it, write for sample to DR.. W. p.
Caldwell, POI Washington ST., Month
cello, ILL.,; he will gladly send a trial
bottle without any expense to yoa
whatever.

ALMOST CRAZY WITH ECZEMA

IT, the unasIsfgned, cannot give
enough p<s1se to the Cuticura Rem
edieS had been doctoring for at
Least year for eczema on my foot. I
aad tried doctor after doctor all to
no avail. When young girl sprained
my ankle three different times, paying
little or no attention to it, when five
years ago a small spot showed upon
my left ankle. I was worried and sent
for doctor. He said it was eczema.
He drew small bone from the ankle
about the size Of match and about
an inch long. The small hole grew
to about the ssss,of an apple, and the
eczema spread to the knee. The doc
tors never could heal the hole in the
ankle. The whole foot ran water all
the time.
my husband and my sons were up
night and day wheeling me from one
room to another In the hope Of giving
me some relief. I would sit for hours
at a time In front Of the fireplace
hoping for daybreak. The pain was
SO intense was almost crazy, in fact,
I would lose my reason for hours at
a time. One day a friend Of mine
dropped in to see me. No more had
she glanced at my foot than she ex-
claimed: Mrs. Finnegan, why In the
world don't you try the Cuticura Rem
edies!' Being disguised with the doc
tors and their medicines, and not be-
ing able to sleep at all, I decided to
give the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment trial. After using them
three days that night I slept as sound
as silver dollar for eight long hours.
I awoke in the morning with but very
little pain, in fact. I thought I was
in heaven. After using the Cuticura
Remedies for three months was per-
fect1y restored to health, thanks to
the Cuticura Soap and Ointment. /
