Laws AGAINST KISSING.
Times.

On July Is, 1889, an act was passed
forbidding kissing owing to the pes
thence raging over England and
France. That is the only enactment
passed againt kissing in England; but
in several countries there are strin.
gent regulations against kissing in
public. The Bavarian state railways
forbid kissing on their railway system,
and the New York Central Railway
company now build in connection with
every new station kissing gallery"
or elevated platform, where passen.
gers are requested to take leave Of
their friends, and kiss to the limit of
their emotion. One of the French
railway companies some years ago
promulgated bylaw by which kiss
ing was added to the list Of things
banned, but the physicians of Mil
waukee about the same time went a
step farther and prepared a bill for
the absolute suppression of kissing on
the ground of the practice being a
menace to health.

PROPER PRIDE IN A NATION
May Have as Strong Virtues as in the
Case of Individual Members
Of Society.

Pride has it's place among virtues
in the lives of individuals as well as in
the lives of nations. Pride, in so far
as it is virtue is a determination not
to be turned aside from the ends which
a man thinks good no matter what out
side pressure may be brought to bear
upon him. There is pride in Condor
Get. sentenced to the guillotine, spend
ing his last days in writing a book on
human progress. There is pride In
those who refuse to recant their reli.
gious convictions under persecution.
Such pride is the noblest form of cour.
age; it shows that self-determination
of che will which is the essence Of
spiritual freedom. But such pride
should have as its complement Just
conception of what constitutes human
welfare, and as its correlative a re-
spect for the freedom of others as alb
solute as the determination to pre-
serve freedom for ourselves. Exactly
the same kind of pride is good In the

ALL FAVOR ELECTRIC POWER
Many Important Facts Brought Out in
Comparison Between Its Use
and That of Steam.

The fact that no boilers are required
on electric locomotives eliminates one
of the large sources of trouble for the
motive power department. One loco
motive can also be run over several
different divisions without injury to it
or without reducing it's efficiency. I'm
der present operating conditions, with
steam locomotives, it is rarely pos
sible to run either a passenger or
freight locomotive over more than one
engine district. which will average
from 100 to $50 miles. Under cleo
trical operation, solid through trains
can be run over several divisions with
out any longer stops at the present
terminals than would be made at or
binary way stations.
The maximum results for steam en-
gines are obtained partially by the
quality of the coal used and by the
ability of the fireman to keep plenty of
coal in the fireboX. With electrical en-
gines they can be run at fairly uniform
speed and in making long, heavy noun
tain climbs they should be as efficient
for the last few miles near the top of
the climb as when starting up the
grade. The success of the work will
mean the gradual electrifcation of
whole systems.

Another EGG Problem.

Two much-bedecked porters were
given leave to go to the races. They
were standing at Fourth and Oak,
waiting for the car, when a casual
glance toward the church caused one
of the colored worthy's thoughts to
JIM" said one Of them, there has
been a question in my mind for long
time and / can't figure it out. l lahks

James maintained that the chicken
was first and poured forth arguments
to that end. His friend became an

Ger became interested in the discus
sion. He heard both sides, gave nei-
Their a verdict, but decided to let the
Judge have a chance to hear such a

in Paris for some thirty years, was
sent to a concentration camp by the
French authorities at the opening Of
the war. Bold has brought up large
family in Paris, but he had never
thought OF getting naturalized. So
when the war came the whole family,
along with the score or more of Hun
garian musicians in the orchestra,
were bundled off to a camp. The
property which Bold had acquired out
Of his years of savings was put under
sequester and the family found itself
in straits
Now the king of Spain is passionate
ly fond of Hungarian music and used
to give really royal tips to Bold every
time he went to Paris for many years.

the king heard from Hungarians at
Madrid that the Bold family was in
difficulties he had his secretary send
them monthly allowance of 800

of the war. There is little need for
money at the camp, 50 the whole fam,

Rush for Locomotives.

The call for locomotives the pres
ent year is very large. American roads
for the first ten months of this year
ordered $40 and the rate of orders is
increasing, indicating that the domes-
tic call will exceed 1000. The foreign
orders for ten months are 1851. Word
has gone out to the railroads that if
they will need new equipment they
had best reserve space now, as the
prospect is the shops will be fully &C.
cupied later. Orders have been taken
from Cuba, Spain and Greece, and it
is expected that other neutral coun'
tries that have thought of Germany
will send orders to this country.

BRIGHT FUTURE FOR ROADS
Expert Sees Nothing but Prosperity
for American Lines-Compari-
son of Capitalization.

A study of some recent comparative
statistics issued by the bureau of rail-
road economics ought to repay the in.
weston whose vision is not limited by
stock market prices.
So far as they could be compared
the railroads of 80 countries were an
alyzed and certain facts brought out
that should indicate roughly the de-
velopment to be expected in the Unit
ed States
For instance, in the number of miles
of line operated per 100 square miles
of area, our country is behind practi-
cally all Of the older nations of com
mercial importance. Our figure is "a,
Frances 1918. Austria's 1922, Den
marks 1915, Germany's 1903, Hol-
lands 1873, Hungary's 1861, Italy's
9.7S, Switzerland's 1888, Belgium S
25.78, and the United Kingdom s
England, Scotland, Ireland and
Wales) 1873. In this respect we are
ahead Of such countries as Japan,
Sweden, Cuba, Bulgaria, Roumania,
Spain, Portugal, the South American
countries, New Zealand and Australia
In miles of line operated per 10000
Of population we are under Australia
excepting New South Wales), Canada
and the Argentine, and we are far
above the old countries named in the
preceding paragraph.
1t is reasonable to predict that our
figure of 2615 miles of line operated
per 10000 Of population will fall to-
ward the 5.71 of Germany or the 5.13
of the United Kingdom. 1t will fall
faster than the figure of miles operat-
ed per 100 square miles of area will
rise.
Our population growth will continue
steady and rapid; the growth of rail
way mileage will be much slower in
proportion, writes John M. Oskison
in the Chicago Daily News.
Our railroad capitalization upon
which interest and dividends must be
earned) is $63,535 a mile; that of the
United Kingdom s277,147. of France
$l4S,463, of Germany s116,365, of
Switzerland $4,000. We compare
best with Canada's $64,O54.
AS population grows and traffic be-
comes denser the capitalization of our
roads will increase.

er right than farther from right, al
ways assuming that there must be OBJ
jections and often valid ones, to every
action, educational or otherwise.
My investigations show that fully
ninety per cent of college undergrad
yates and high school pupils, includ-
ing those who are studious, cram for
examination. 1t has become a custom.
and still remains in force.
The examining REORGANIZATION meth
cd, instigated in the school, is carried
through life, and enters business and
profession. Instead of learning by
study and persistent effort what is re-
quired, nearly everybody especially
prepares himself to meet some antici-
pated examination or test, which is
usually scheduled to occur on a defn-
lite date. The knowledge obtained in
this way does not remain. 1t is forced
in and forces itself out, usually leav-
ing the mind as empty as it was in
the first place.
The business or professional man of
marked Accomplishment is always
ready to meet emergency. He as
sumes it's constant occurrence. He
grounds himself in what he should
know, ever studying, ever learning.
ever open to suggestion, ever anxious
to obtain information. OF course, if
an unusual task is presented to him,
he may read up or study the subject
more intently, but he does not depend
upon this special loading of the mind.
A short period of daily study accom-
plishes more than double the amount
of time spent in examining, and that
which is obtained naturally and regu-
larly is not easily forgotten, but re-
mains as permanent asset.
Work, whether you have to study or
do something else. Keep everlast-
ingly at it, whatever may be your duty
or your vocation. Learn something
every day, and do not make a special
ty of overlooking on any one day. If
you do, you will be like the over
charged gun which is more likely to
burst than to send the shot to the
target.

PLANTS MUST BE STUDIED
Successful Culture Is impossible Un"
less One Thoroughly Understands
Their Characteristics.

Self,education in plant growing can
be carried on in the winter as we'll as
in the summer. 1t is interesting to
study the habits and requirements Of
any plant, whether it is in season or
not. There are many hardy peren-
malls that can be started in the house,
and, if the work with them through
the winter is successful, they can be
set out of doors in the spring. TAs
includes growing from seed such
plants as rhubarb and asparagus.
There is no end to the plants that may
be thus utilized Also plant started
and successfully brought to maturity
in the home is likely to be harder
than those plants that have been
started in hothouses and afterward
transferred to homes. II one fails
with plant lesson should be gained
from the failure in what not to do.
If one tries The growing of good
many different kinds of plants there
are good chances for succeeding with
some of them, even under adverse con-
ditionS.

Carbon in Gravity Cells.

Carbon can be used instead of con-
per in gravity cells with good results.
Several carbons should be removed
from WORKOUT dry cells, thoroughly
cleaIed and connected together. After
few hours OF short circuit a coating
OF copper from the copper sulphate
solution will form on the carbon sur.
face which will perform the function
OF lie usual copper electrode very
well. 1t must be understood, how.

Novel Railroad Bridge.

A bridge that is to be built for the
Holland government railroad over the
Serajoe river in Java has been made
complete in the shops in Holland and
so carefully has this been done that
no field work will be required in
erecting the steel structure other than
that of connecting the members, says
Popular Mechanics. The bridge site
is far from any kind of shop facili-
ties. and to make sure that the struc-
ture would go together properly it was
first erected as carefully as if on its
permanent location, in the yards of
the manufacturing company in Hol-
land. Following this it was taken
down and is to be shipped by steam
er to Java. The bridge is of unusual
design, consisting of three arched
spans Of steel connecting with short,
straight trusses over the piers. 1t
has a total length of 608 feet 10 inches
and weighs $50 tons. 1t is designed
