ROLL-T0P DESK is BARRED
In the Interest Of Efficiency Eastern
Railroad Equlps Its Offices With
Modern Furnishings.

This is an age OF efficiency, and in
the successful stores, offices, and cor
porations one sees many things that
make for more efficient work on the
part Of every one from the big boss
down to the janitor
Nowhere perhaps Is efficiency more
rigidly demanded than on most Of
the railroads. An order just issued by
an Eastern railroad is illustrative of
the point. This order forbids the use
OF roll-top desks by any OF the en-
ployes-sll offices from the presidents
down and all those along the system
have been equipped with nat-top
desks.
This is so the men will not cram
pigeonholes full OF papers and pile
work and papers on their desks, close
them up and go home. The man with
a fat-top desk will clear 1t on be-
fore leaving. in fact it's mandatory
in this case, and he steps up to his
desk the next morning, not having to
fuss and fume over pile OF unsorted
papers, but ready to dig right In on
the days Job. There's nothing left un-
done from yesterday. %

Services on the Roof.

Efforts to maintain religious wor.
ship through the summer months on
the plane OF comfort and freedom from
oppressive heat have resulted In two
churches here holding Sunday evening
services on the roof gardens of their
parish houses. In both cases the ex-
pertinent was success, and 1t was de-
termined to continue the innovation
during the hot weather. We hear
other towns complaining that they
have no church roof gardens; but serv-
Ices In some places have been held
with success and in comfort on church
lawns, and very impressive and beau
tiful many of them must have been.
Whether the roof or the lawn is the
place, the plan to surround worshipers
with more comfort than the church
Itself admits is an excellent one. de-

Romance Of Old Clothes.

Florence Hull Winterburn, author
OF the recently published Principles
OF Correct Dress" believes that the
American woman who does not care
for dress Is not only unfeminine but
"unpatriotic." A particular tenderness
for old gowns is shown in every sta
ton OF life, declares Mrs. Howe.
From the daughter of the million
aire, who has a sentiment for the
Doucet gown she wore when John first
admired her, down through the social
scale to the old West virginian noun
taineer who musingly whispered, as
she hung the mate to her one other
calico frock on the clothes-line. I al
lers liked this un better'n any frock

for garments, as intimate partakers
OF ones life, obtains in the minds of

Who Discovered the Kangaroo?


Mr.. w. B. Alexander of the Western
Australian museum at Perth. w. A..
has recently corrected a popular mis-
take In the history of natural history.
The discovery Of the kangaroo family
Is generally credited to Sir Joseph
Banks, and Is supposed to have &C.
CURED during Captain Cooks first voy-
age In ITO. This date, it appears, is
nearly one hundred and fifty years too
late. When the Dutch East India
ccmpany's ship, the Batavia, under
command of Captain Pelsart, was
wrecked on the Abrolhos islands In
1929, the survivors encountered among
other strange things the Dana Walla-
by, the first member of the kangaroo
family known to Europeans. Captain
Pelsart described 1t as a species of cat
about the size of hare, noted its re-
markable hind legs, and described in
considerable detail the abdominal
pouch for the young and the use of it.

r. HE school bag is a great conven-
! fence to school children and a
conserver of books, papers, pencils
and handkerchiefs as well. 1t Is bet
ter to carry the burden of books in
a bag than in the arms. A bag leaves
the arms free and does not interfere
with the stride nor the proper car
riage of the body in walking.
Bags are usually made of canvas, or
Of canvas covered with cloth. Hard
twisted waterproof worsteds, craven
cites or rubberized clothes will pro-
tect the canvas stiffening which holds
the bag In shape. Remnants of suit
lngs or of cloths used for coats, in
plain colors or dark plaids are select
ed to make the most substantial kinds.
Fancier bags of plush, like that shown
in the picture, and bags of leather are
intended for older pupils.
School bags are usually oblong In
shape and measure about twelve inches
in length and ten in width They are
cut In the form of an envelope so that
extra width must be allowed on one
side to fold over and form the flap.
The sides are joined by straight strip
of cloth from two and half to three
inches wide, which is stitched between
them. The same are turned to the

SAYS BUNYAN WAS
HYPOCHONDRIAC.

An article has been gong the
rounds of the press to the effect that
John Bunyan, author Of "Pilgrlms
Progress" was a pronounced hypo-
chondriac. The Slough of Despond'
the man in the iron cage, Douoting
Castle and the Giant Despair all
! impressive to many generations OF
PEOPLE nothing but the creation
of melancholic soul.
Hypochondriasis is said to have
appeared very early in life, john
Bunyan it is claimed suffered from II
when he was child and quite as
severely when he was a ribald, foul
mouthed tinker as after his marriage
ard conversion. The mind of a hypo'
chondriac is usually of superior Or
der. Bunyan's case is most notable
instance.
Rest, even in the form of twelve
years Imprisonment in Bedford JAIL
it is believed did Bunyan much good.
In this busy age, when the world Is
flooded with cheap and flimsy Inter-
allure, Bunyan is not the familiar per-
sonage he was in the days OF our
ancestors. His immortal allegory re-
mains for years upon our shelves un-
opened, while copies of the great work
are kicked about junk stores or eX-
posed for sale on secondhand book
stalls for five or ten cents without
buyers. Yet, this book has. cheered
thousands in passing through the var
led scenes of life. The author may,
like all other thoughtful specimens
of humanity, at times have been
hypochondriac, and who among US at
mes feasts his eyes upon the Del
ectable Mountains The Valley Of
Humiliation and the Valley of the
Shadow of Death are before all the
children of Adam, and will be until
the end of time.
Bunyan's description Of the path
way of the Pilgrim from this world
to the Elysian Fields is but the eX-
perience of every one who is animated
by proper spirit. While he conducts
the wayfarer through many dismal
scenes, the star of hope is always dis
cerned. But there are also pleasant
Wales and meandering streams for the
refreshment of the weary.
When the curtain is about to fall
upon the last scene of all in lifa'5
eventful story the River Without a
Bridge is seen shimmering under the
rays of the Sun of Righteousness with
myriads of celestials upon the other
shore anxious to welcome home the
weary, These comforting fances are
not the emanations of hypochon-
driac.

THE DUMBA
INCIDENT.

With issues between the United
States: and Germany barely veneered
another perplexing issue has been
suddenly precipitated. Austria, het
ally, has been placed in bad light
by questionable actions upon the
part of Francis Joseph's Ambassador,
who has been engaged in fomentlng
trouble at manufactures in this
country. The Austrian had a con-
ference yesterday with Secretary Of
State Lansing during which the for
mer, without hesitation, acknowledge
ed that his procedures were in ac-
cordance with instructions he had
received from his government. This
was revelation, as it had been sup
posed that Ambassador DumDa alone
had been acting mischievously in his
zeal for Austria Hungary. But the
fact that he was acting upon orders
from his sovereign makes the case
serious. A simple request for the re-
call of the ambassador will hardly
satisfy the United States, and the
situation is not only disagreeable but
fraught with gravity.
From the day George III. signed
the terms of peace with the United
State and recognized it as an indie
pendent nation royalty in Europe has
been wont to look upon our country
with derision and sometimes with
contempt The experience of repre-
sentatives of the United States at
foreign courts century and a quar-
ter ago was often disagreeable, those
of Bourbon blood at times manifest
irg disdain upon what was destined
to be great republic. The parent
country seemed at times to think we
lad no rights any one was bound to
respect; and her example was often
followed by others.
That spirit is still alive and KICK
ing in certain capitals, and the fact
that European nation has sent an
official to our capital with in
structions to bring about discord and
strikes in manufactures shows the
spirit which still animates them.
Germany has acted extensively u
the United States since war was de-
clared in Europe. She has recently
made it appear that she received our
representations in q proper spirit,
but there is nothing tangible, so far,
to show she is sincere in her disa
vowals, as the same murderous pro-
cedures against which the United
States protested are still in evidence.
The disclosure Of Austria's effron-
terry has added considerably to the
disagreeablc conditions which have
faced America during the past six
months.
