HONOR FOR THE PENNSYLVANIA.

THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF SAFETY has
Il presented a medal to the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company signifying that the big corpora
ton has done more for the protection of its en-
ployes than any other railroad company during the
past year.
During the fall Of 1910 agents from one Of the
large accident insurance companies with repre-
sentatives of the Pennsylvania inspected all the
larger shops of the corporation and safety COM
mittees were organized all the divisions of the
railroad AS a result the number of serious in
iuries TO shop employees was reduced by far more
than half
The company has also during the last year or so
conducted vigorous campaign for the purpose OF
educating the public as to the danger of trespass
ing on railroad tracks for statistics show that
very large percentage of accidents on the rail-
roads are due to trespassing and the thoughtless-
ness with which persons use the railroads as public
highways.
The efforts Of the Pennsylvania and otner rah-
road companies to lessen the loss OF lie among
their employees and the public are not due soleY
10 humanitarian motives There are considerations
of business expediency With the loss OF lie
through accidents the companies may sustain Pc
cuniary injury from damage suits. Then, again.
if valued employees are killed their places must
be taken by less experienced men, and in no other
calling does efficiency and experience count for
more
A railroad company is desirous of maintaining
the integrity of its working force and every means
that helps to eliminate danger and TO promote the
health and welfare of the employees counts for the
betterment of the service.

DIRECT PRIMARIES.

II HE action of the Democratic County Com
4 mittee in supporting direct primaries for
the nomination of candidates for the county and
state tickets shows the change that has taken place
IN Democratic sentiment during the last two years
Two years ago the county convention rejected
the direct primary scheme holding TO the present
method under which part OF the county officials
arc named by convention and the others by pr-
mares The Democratic County Committee has
gone a step farther than that proposed two years
ago, for it now suggests that primaries apply to
the nomination of candidates from United States
Senator down.
The manner of making nominations has varied
in the different counties The convention plan is
followed by both parties in Kent and Sussex al
though there is considerable sentiment for
change
In this county the Republicans for years have
followed the primary plan and the Democrats have
had a patch work. The Democrats by means Of
convention could change their rules so that the
primary could be put into operation for the COM
ing campaign.
1t is doubtful however, whether the Democratic
State Committee will take any radical step to-
wards complying with the wishes Of the New

mttee~at the last state convention controlled
by conservatives and they may think il better TO
do nothing until the next regular state convention
when all these matters can be disposed of.
1t is evident, however, that the Democrats OF
the state are becoming divided along sharp lines
the conservatives who look askance at the re-
forms proposed and the so-called progrcssives who
wish to sec the party placed more directly in the
hands of the people.

A Home Recipe for
Removing Wrinkles

(From Woman's National Journal)
Who will blame the modern woman
for trying 10 look as young and at
tractive as she reasonably can? Why
should she be placed at a disadvan-
tage in numerous ways by wearing
wrinkles, If she can avoid these hate
ful marks Of advancing age?
Few women, however know what to
do to efIectually rid themselves of
wrinkles or sagginess. None of the
advertised preparations is satisfac-
tory and most of them are very eXpcn-
sive. But very simple and harmless
home remedy, which any woman can
make. will work wonders whore all
the patent preparations fail.
Buy an ounce of powdered saNolite
az any drug store Dissolve the
whole ounce i'm a half pint of witch
hazel and use IL as a wash lotion.
The results are practically instanta-
neous. Marked improvement is no

THE GIRL AND HER PLEASURES.

II
Chester Times.
From many American cities come
warnings from the police Of the peril
that menaces young girls in the prom
iscuous dances that take place at
some of the social functions and the
suggestion has been made that the
municipality undertake some sort of
supervision over these places The
question would arise at once just
what places the police would take
under supervision. There would very
properly be a very loud protest from
many social organizations, who re-
sent very strenuously the charge that
improper conduct marks their dances.
We do not believe that peril to the
girls can be very materially reduced
by any municipal supervision A
place that needs the supervision of
the police should be peremptOrily
closed. A dance hall under suspicion
will by the very nature Of the case be
resort for the vicious and the i'm
moral.
The real protection around the
young folk should come from the par
ents If the fathers or mothers at
tended some of the social functions
in which their daughters participate
and see for themselves who their as
sociates are, some girls would not be
permitted to attend some social
occasions. But the real trouble lies
beyond public functions and is
found in the mistaken prohibition
some parents place upon their daugh-
ters in invitations TO young men
friends to visit their homes. Many a
girl would not seek company in a
dance hall of questionable repute
We're it not that father and mother
closes the door of the home TO all her
young men friends. They forgot that
the craving of the girl for entertain
ment is natural and God-given and
will be enjoyed along proper lines
if there is wisdom on the part Of the
parents.
Supervision by the police will never
reform any amusement but partici-
patton by the parents in the. plea

MExICO's TROUBLES.

TTNDER Diaz Mexico for many years enjoyed
~ peace and a certain kind of prosperity not
the nrosperity that would be desirable in more
civilized country, but investments were reasonably
safe and the republic to the south OF us mace pro-
gress.
Conditions we're not ideal far from it. Diaz was
a dictator who sternly repressed with military
force dissatisfaction wherever it cropped out lie
reelected himself time after time by employing the
strong arm methods of the dictator. AS a result
of his iron rule much capital went into Mexico for
the development OF the vast resources of the ma
ton.
Conditions under Daz were better than they
had been before, but Daz ran his course, and
when his despotic rule finally created an opposi-
ton that broke forth into rebellion, II was dscov-
cred that his real military strength was fictitious
Madero was successful in overthrowng the gov
ernment of Diaz, but is he capable of establishing
a stable government himself? The disturbances
occurring since Madero assumed command throw
doubt ON the ability of Madero TO bring order out
Of chaos Unless conditions change very soon
Mexico is likely to repeat the history OF many OF
the South and Central American countries Whch
are. very turbulent.
The question is to find the kind OF government
for which the people are suited Perhaps Daz gave
the Mexicans the best kind OF government OF
which they arc capable. 1t now looks as it the
trouble in Mexico will involve the United States
more or less and already there are intmations
that this country will ultimately be forced to rule
either directly or indirectly Mexico, but It IS to
be hoped that there will be no such contingency

END OF A ROMANCE.
Baltimore American.

Baltimore American.
From the ashes of a dead romance.
such as that which eventuated III
double suicide. there comes forth the
death mask of hideous reality that
surrounds the reflections Of wives
from the path of virtue in obedince to
the so-called advanced notions which
are sowed broadcast by those who seek
TO undermine the family in society.
The pathetic sequel to an ill-ordered
union between the divorced wife of a
multimillionaire and youthful plum
ber's apprentice should carry a lesson
10 those who feel that marital bonds
are irksome.
Certain conditions of environments
are fixed in society and certain laws
are beyond the strength of individual
protest. Only rarely is it the case that
one has the power TO set at naught the
conventions that form the social bond
and not become submerged in the act.
The vast majority of persons who set
at naught the fats of society find that
they are sowing TO the wind.
The family has been fashioning for
many cycles, and its power is beyond
the weak controversy Of emotional pro-
testants. So that those whO's seek to set
aside the conditions it imposes find it
to be a milestone that grinds them to
powder. Sad indeed is this latest con-
fession Of the futility of such courses
