Unique Engineering Feat.

When railroad building was under
taken in Alaska, following the discov-
cry Of gold, one of the most unique
engineering feats on record was per-
formed At point 80 miles out of
Skagway the survey had been made
for the road along the shore OF a
lake. but it was found to be so irreg-
ular and broken by so many coves
that the plan was adopted of getting
a better line by lowering the level of
the lake. This was done by cutting
an outlet channel, through which IA
feet of the lake drained off, But
presently the new channel, having
been cut through a sandy hill, gave
way and the escaping lake water
wore an enormous canyon through
the country and reduced the lake level
again over seventy feet. A fine, level
roadbed was secured over what was
formerly the bed OF the lake.

PRESSED HARD.
Coffee's Weight on Old Age.

When people realize the injurious
effects of coffee and the change in
health that Postum can bring, they are
usually glad to lend their testimony
for the benefit of others.
'My mother, since her early child
hood, was an inveterate coffee drinker,
had been troubled with her heart for a
number of years and complained of
that weak all over feeling and sick
stomach.
Some time ago I was making a
visit to a distant part of the country
and took dinner with one Of the
merchants of the place. l noticed a
somewhat unusual favour of the 'cof-
fee and asked him concerning it. He
replied that it was Postum.
Il was so pleased with it that, after
the meal was over, bought package
to carry home with me, and had wife
prepare some for the next meal. The
whole family were so we'll pleased
with it that we discontinued coffee and
used Postum entirely.
Il had really been at times very
anxious concerning my mothers con-
dition, but we noticed that after using
Postum for short time, she felt so
much better than she did prior to it's
use, and had little trouble with her
heart, and no sick stomach; that the
headaches were not so frequent, and
her general condition much improved,
This continued until she was well and
hearty.

Battle on an Engine.

To battle fercely in the swaying
cab of speeding locomotive is some
thing which does not come under the
head of Parlor Amendments. Photo
players who attempt this feat must
possess "sealegs," and some amount
of nerve. The players in the COM
pany directed by ]. P. MCGOWAN are
so thoroughly at home in anything
which smacks of the railroad that
such feats are regarded as being moth
ing extraordinary. "The Demon of

and the part she plays in preventing

Take the Blood Out and Wash 1t.

Rosenberg have discovered a way to
take the blood out of the body, wash
1t and put it back again. In the
Roussky Vraitch the describe their ex-
periments upon animals The idea,
of course, is to rid the blood of poi
sonous substances. They found they
could remove half the blood, prevent
it's coagulation by adding sodium cit
rate, wash it with salt solution and
return the purified red corpuscles into
the, circulation. 1t was not necessary
to return the white corpuscles.

marks that this, taken together with
the transportation of organs and the
growth of tissues outside the body,
forms an entirely new chapter in
