THE SIN OF OMISSION
(MARGARET E. SANGSTER. }

1t isn't the thing you do, dear,
It's the thing you leave undone
That gives you bit of heartache
At the setting of the sun.
The tender word forgotten;
The letter you did not write:
The flowers you did not send, dear,
Are your haunting ghosts at night.
The stone you might have lifted
Out of a brothers way;
The bit OF heartsome counsel
You were hurried too much to say;
The loving touch OF the hand, dear,
The gentle, winning tone
Which you had no time or thought 70
With troubles enough of your own.
Those little acts of kindness
So easily out of mind,
Those chances to be angels
Which we poor mortals find
They come in night and silence,
Each sad reproachful wrath,
When hope Is faint and Tagging
And chill has fallen on faith.
For life is all too short, dear.
And sorrow is all too great.
To suffer our slow compassion
That tarries until too late;
And 1t isn't the thing you do. dear,
It's the thing you leave undone
Which gives you a bit of heartache
At the setting of the sun.

ELECTRICITY TO BE POWER
Owners of Anthracite Mines in Penn syIvania Decide to Make Use of
 1t Exclusively.

Electricity is to take the place en. tirely of steam and compressed air in the anthracite mines of Pennsylvania, according to paper read recently be- fore the Engineers Society of North eastern Pennsylvania.
 The total of electric generating ca pacity and power purchased for use at the mines at the present time Is given as 79,811 kilowatts, which is ap- proximately equal to 1O5,40O horse power. The horsepower produced by steam Is given as 531,811.
 The first electrical installation in mines was made in 1887 by the Penn. sylvania Railroad company. In 1889 the Thompson-Houston company placed a locomotive and a generating station in the Erie colliery of the Hill side Coal & Iron company. This To- comotive was in operation until 1911. 22 years of continuous operation. The first electric pump installed was in 1890, and has been in continuous serv- ice ever since. From 1891 to the pres ent year plant after plant has been erected in the mines.

WARFARE AGAINST THE RAT
New Orleans Has Comprehensive Sys- tenn for Elimination of Man.
 kinds Enemy.

Conversion of insanitary districts into healthful ones and the proofing of the entire city against rats is contem- plated in the plans made by the health authorities of New Orleans for perma- nently stamping out the causes of bu- bonic plague. The methods proposed are similar in certain respects to those followed by the federal government at the Panama canal, while their execu- tion is as much an engineering prob lem as it is a medical one. Accomplish ment of the work depends upon the passage of enabling legislation which bears directly upon the building regu- lations and affects practically every structure in the city. Popular Mechan- ics Magazine, in an illustrated article, says:
 Ordinances designed to handle the situation provide that all buildings which rest upon the ground shall have concrete floors and every structure shall be proofed against rats. Other ordinances abolish henhouses within the city limits, excepting when they are thoroughly rat-proofed; make stringent rulings concerning the dis posal of garbage, and subject ship ping in the harbor to binding regula- tions intended to prevent rats from landing from boats docked at the wharves. It is planned that ships shall lie eight feet from the wharves, have all hawsers fitted with rat guards and have a guard at the gangplanks when. ever they are lowered"
