Safety Rules.

In what is claimed 'the interest of safety" new rules governing the promo tion of firemen to engineers and of engi- neers to advanced grades of service and for "the discipline of botn" were promul- gated Sunday by the New Haven road. effective at once." A committee of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi- neers, headed by Chairman F. s. Evans, has had five conferences with General Manager G. l.. Bardo in the past fort night, during which opposition was ex- prest to any change of rules as had been outlined by the operating officials of the company.
 In posting the new rules the company says this is done "in accordance with it's previously announced policy to adopt and enforce every reasonable rule and practise which experience has shown would help to protect life and preserve property"
 "In promulgating these rules" says the road in a statement, "there is no bD6 IOhu Oh P0Lp OA OAO management to impose hardships or onerous conditions upon it's employees. They are solely intended to promote safe- ty in operation. The rules do not in any way interfere with or change the hour of service, the rates of pay or other working conditions. AS adopted they are practically the same as on many eastern roads," Continuing, the state ment says that "when the purposes of the new rules are understood by the men involved. the management is satisfied that they will be accepted, as an honest effort on the part of the management to bring about improved conditions and that no controversy can exist between the men and the company where the question of safety only is involved"

whirIpooI Suggested siLeneer.

MT. Maxim had been working on the development of automobile engine muf- fiers for some time before he thought of a silencer in connection with gun. In addition to this was the inventors s desire to enjoy target practice without creating disturbance. Experiment ensued, covering a couple of years and all kinds of valves, vents, bypasses, ex. pansion chambers, etc. but without success. One morning after his bath the inventor noticed the small whirl' pool over the drain hole, the action of which retards the egress of the wa ter. 1t does not silence it (as this phenomenon is usually accompanied by a more or less pronounced sucking sound), but In a gun the noise of firing is caused by the sudden egress of the gases, and If these could in the same way be slowed down the noise would In proportion be decreased. Acting on this suggestion, little tube was then made. constructed so as to induce a whirlpool in the escaping gases from the gun. This. when tried, was a sue cess--American Machinist-

Good Sittera.

Turkish women are said to have one accomplishment in which they excel the women of all other nationalities. They know how to sit. Hester Don. aldson Jenkins calls attention to the fact that the Turkish verb to sit ls used where occidentals would use to live. or stay. or visit. To the question. Where are you llvingT' one gets the reply. "I nm sitting in Stamboul." Or to the question, Are you marriedy' the answer will be. No, am sitting at home" And when, they sit they sit quietly. "in the perfect repose of sleeping cat" They don't have to keep their hands busy. They don't crochet or knit. They just sit.

How to Destroy Ants.

The best and easiest method I have ever found for destroying ants. whether they are in the house or on the lawn, is to take large sponge, wet it and sift fine sugar all over it and lay it in the place that is infested. The ants will soon fill the sponge. Take it and sink it In pail of water; they will then leave the sponge and rise GO the top of the water and can be easily destroyed. Sprinkle more sugar on the sponge and put it in place again. This repeated 8 few times will soon enable the housewife to destroy all the ants.-Fsrm and Fire side.

Watched the Jockeys.

When the Derby was first founded the stewards used to ride along the course to watch the competitors. A separate steward was detailed for each horse. and his duty was to see there was no interference with that horse or his jockey by the other competitors or the public. In q picture of the Derby of 1791 by ]. N. Sartorius one of the stewards can be seen riding along gay ly some lengths fin front of the winner.

"Home, Sweet Home,n Too Pathetis9

"Honef sweet F1oncT' 100 Tatnetief
 Home. Sweet Home." the song of a homeless American, once moved Rob- ert Louis Stevenson to an outburst of passionate protest But it was the music rather than the words that reused his indignation. You will find the passage in Across the Plains" "I have no idea whether musically this air is to be considered good or bad. but it belongs to that class of art which may best be described as a brutal as- sault upon the feelings. Pathos must be relieved by dignity of treatment. If you wallow naked in the pathetic. like the author of Home, Sweet Home you make your hearers weep in an unmanly fashion. and even yet while they are moved they despise themselves and hate the occasion of their weakness"

REVOLUTION IN AMERICAN
BANK METHODS

From Philadelphia Public Ledger
AS it finally comes from the house |
committee, the Glass currency bill pro-
yides for a complete revolution IN
American banking. For fifty years
the country has had national banks
which are chartered by the federal gov
eminent, but are managed solely by
the stockholders.
For fifty years also, these national
banks have issued paper money with
United States government bonds as a
security back of it. All this will be
changed if the Glass bill becomes a
Elaw. There would be established
twelve new United States banks in
twelve different large cities OF the
country.
Solely on account of their location
| they are called regional reserve banks.
These twelve new banks will keep all
the bank reserves for all the national
hanks. They will do all the issuing OF
naner money in the future. A much
greater latitude will be allowed them
in selecting securities pr their circu-
lation than has been allowed the ma
tional banks.
These twelve federal banks will have
E capital stock like other banks but al
OF It must be bought by existing ma
tional banks in protection to their owl
capital. The bill restricted the size o
dividend which the new federal bank
may pay to per cent. The new bank
dare not pay interest on any deposits
including deposits made in u lem by tn
United States treasury. At present nj
tional banks are forced to pay z pc
cent on such government money
The country will be divided dogma
ically into twelve regions, and the n
tional banks in each, after first buylr
stock in the new federal bank, W
