ADMIRED Mr.. HARklNS' TASTE

the Recipient Had to Take Time
to Appreciate.

"Jona," said Mrs. Harkins, 81 heard

looked pleased, and said:
We'll, that's nothing so remarkable.

Mrs. Harkins went on slipping her
tea, and her husband waited for her
to resume. Finally, he said
We'll, why don't you tell me what
it was? Who was it that compli-
mented me?"
oh. you couldn't guess in a week"
Mrs. Deering?" he ventured.
NO"
Not Bessie Fallington?" he rather
eagerly suggested.
No"
oh. well, of course if there's any
secret about it. don't care to hear
what it was or who said it."
There isn't any secret about it.
Mrs. Harkins sweetly replied. Mr.
Hannaford told me that every time

oughly convinced that you were a man
of excellent taste"
John Harkins then showed his hands
down in his pockets and walked out

Serbla,s Kina Arthur.

The picture. King Mako Returns
to Head His People" on the Serbian
flag day posters is based on one of the
most popular Of Serbian legends, the
Pail Mall Gazette says. Mako, who
ranks as the Serbian King Arthur, was
the son Of King Vukashin, whom he
denounced for usurping the throne,
which rightly belonged to Urosh. son
of Dushan. Vukashin cursed him, and
prayed that he might have neither
tomb nor posterity, and be doomed to
serve the tsar of the Turks" but
Urosh blessed him, and prayed that
he might know no equal in wisdom or
prOwess, and be remembered as long
as the earth endured.
Thus they spake, and thus it came
to pass" says an old Serbian ballad.
Mako fought for the sultan. but the
sultan feared him, for his wrath was
terrible" and, though he knew no sep
ulture. he lived, says the legends, for
300 years He still lives in the hearts
of patriotic Serbians, many of whom
believe that one day he will awake
and come forth to restore the glories
of the former empire.

household clock, which had not run
for a long time. He found bottle,
the contents CT which looked like oil,

Mrs. Perry returned home and heard
the long-silent clock ticking, she asked
her husband how he did it, pointing
to the clock on the shelf
"A little Yankee genius. and oil"

GREATEST OF ARCHES
BRIDGE OVER HE'LL GATE TRl.
UMPH OF ENGINEERING SKILL.
Work Which Had Many Complica-
tlons Carried Out With Marvellous
Accuracy-Designed to Garry
Immense Load Safely.

October l saw the completion Of
the great S12,O00,000 railroad bridge
over He'll Gate, when the two halves
of the largest steel arch in the world,
which have slowly been growing out
toward each other for many months,
were joined. No ceremonies marked
the event, though, from an engineer
ing as well as a popular point of view,
it was one of supreme interest. The
bridge will close the last remaining
gap in the line which is to link the
metropolitan centers of the East from
Washington to Boston, in an unbro-
ken overland route of steel rails. The
bridge will nominally be part of the
New York connecting railroad; in
practice it will be a means of extend
ing the Pennsylvania system via its
Long Island railroad connections and
via the New Haven railroad into New
England, and with the Boston &
Maine to Quebec and the Maritime
provinces of Canada The route at no
point will be broken by a water gap
requiring ferriage. These aspects of
the enterprise give it national inter
est quite apart from its local interest
as a means of Accommodation in
the metropolitan district of New
York.
AS an engineering feat the steel
arch across He'll Gate has few to equal
it in the world; and the greatness of
the feat is made the greater by the
marvellous accuracy with which it was
carried out The distance spanned by
the arch, between the mammoth con-
crete towers upon which its ends rest,
is 1,017 feet. In the fabrication OF
the arch 10000 tons of steel were en-
ployed; yet the latest computation
made by the engineers check up to
within one-fourth Of an inch. This
quarter-inch represents all possible in
accuracies in triangulation of the dis
lance across the river, all possible in
accuracies in the manufacture of the
thousands of separate pieces of steel
that went into the structure, in the
riveting of piece to piece, in the calcu-
lations of the expansion and contrac-
ton of the metal under changing tenn
perature, and in the building up of
the concrete towers from foundations
reaching down 120 feet below the wa
ter level The bridge will carry the
heaviest load ever designed to be car
ried by such a structure. Each lineal
foot of the bridge will weigh 3S tons
loaded, the structure itself weighing
26 tons per foot, leaving u tons for
weight of load. The tallest ships will
be able to pass under the span with
out housing their tOpmasts or other
wise shortening their gear. An
achievement of this magnitude can
not be fairly passed without notice.

Would Outshine Rival.

In a certain manufacturing town it

for skilled workmen to save sufficient
money wherewith to build houses for
themselves. A great deal of rivalry
existed among these men as to who
should have the best house, with
sometimes curious architectural re

having built house, B, whose turn
soon afterward came, determined to

TURN OVER TIME
When Nature Hints About the Food.

When there's no relish to food and
all that one eats doesn't seem to do
any good then is the time to make
turnover in the diet, for that's Ma
lures way of dropping a hint that the
food isn't the kind required.
For q number of years / followed
railroad work. much of it being ofhce
work of a trying nature. Meal times
were our busiest; and eating too mucn
and too quickly of food such as is
commonly served in hotels and res
taurants, together with the sedentary
habits, were not long in giving me dys-
pepsia and stomach trouble which re-
duced my weight from EOS to LOO
pounds.
There was little relish in any food
and none of it seemed to do me any
good. 1t seemed the more l ate the
poorer l got and was always hungry
before another meal, nc matter how
much had eaten.
Then l commenced a trial of Grape
Nuts food. and was surprised how
small saucer Of it would carry me
along. strong, and with satisfied appe-
tite. until the next meal. with no SEN
Sations OF hunger, weakness or dis
treSs as before.
i have been following this diet now
for several months and my improve
ment has been so great all the others
in my family have taken up the use
of Grape-Nuts with complete sausfac-
ton and much improvement in health.
Most people eat hurriedly, have

and therefore need a food that is pre-

of true love ran smooth again.-CIeve-
