VVIOULDN'T you like to have
w kitchen cabinet for your
doll house2 You can cas-

lily make one like the one pictured
here. One little box two inches
wide, three inches long and about
three inches deep will be all that is
needed.
The cover of the box makes the
back. The shelves can be made by
pasting short pasteboard strips
against the inside of the cover for
other strips to rest on. The lower
part is made by cutting the box in
halves and pasting one of the halves
against the lower part of the cover.
You can outline a panel on this
to represent a door or drawers,
whichever you think will look best.
Or you can actually cut doors with
sharp penknife that will swing
ajar.

Electric Locomotives.

The practica bility of substituting
electricity for steam upon large rail
roads is being demohstrs d by the
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul rail-
road This company is preparing now
to use electric power on its entire road
from Harlowton. Mont. to the Pacific
coast--a distance of $50 miles. The
contracts have already been let for
electric locomotives. substation APP
paratus, and line material for 1l3 miles
of the main line from Three Forks.
Mont. to Deer Lodge, Mont. and the
first of four engine divisions from Har-
iowton to Avery.
This will amount TO nearly 500 miles
of track. including Yards and siding.
1t is the first attempt to install and
operate electric locomotives on tracks
extending over several engine divi-
sions. A few other installations have
been made in different parts of the
country for local reasons
This change is being made for purely
economic reasons in the belief that
electricity will not only be less ex-
pensive than steam, but will also elm
mate smoke and make the service
more popular.
The electric locomotives to be used
will weigh $40 tons each and will have
a capacity for work greater than that
of any steam or electric locomotive yet
constructed in any part of the world.
Each passenger locomotive will be
capable of hauling an S00-ton train
at speed Of sixty miles an hour.

Old-Time Shorthand.


We are told, IN a recent story.
ancient Hebrews, possessed fine sys-
men took stenographers with them
wherever they went. This is not true
in any strict sense. The ancient
Romans and Hebrews had systems of
shorthand. but not Of stenography
Their shorthand consisted of abbre-
viations, the use of letters for words.
the Introduction of arbitrary symbols
and memory systems, and that kind
of thing. No system of phonetic ste
biography. such as we have at the pres
ent day, in which fluent character
represents certain sound, and in
accordance with which the sounds of
human speech can be transcribed as
they are uttered, was known to the
vented by Giro. the secretary of
Cicero, is we'll known: 1t has no pho
netic basis. Two amanuenses were
necessary to keep up with spea ker,
and there are even tales that Caesar
kept six amanuenses going at once. 1t
is certainly a long jump from that to
the handy girl Of today. whose swift
pencil easily keeps up with a mans
utterance.
Few people at the present day have
any Just or correct understanding of
phonetics. The average person con
fuses the name of letter of the alpha
bet with the sound which 1t Is sup
posed to represent, fails to distinguish
between diphthongs like long 'i" and
the simple vowel sounds. and in many
ways betrays the fact that he Is quite
without the phonetic sense. The teach
ing of stenography has spread
knowledge OF phonetics, and in the
long run must produce a much more
general realization of the ridiculous
ness and wastefulness Of our present
system Of spelling the English
language.

years ago the Pecos valley. like all the
rest of the southwest, was a part OF a
great cattle range. Up the Pecos river
ran one of the broad trails. over which
tens of thousands of cattle from the
southern ranges were driven annually
to the northern market. 1t was along
this route that the cowpuncher. the

at their best-or worst. as the case may
be. This was the stamping ground OF
the famous Billy the Kid and his gang.

Then, a few years ago. some one near
Roswell dug a well and the water came
shouting up in a silver column ten feet
high. 1t became known that the Who'll"
region was underlain by water under
heavy pressure. This subterranean lake
had but to be released to convert the
prairie into a garden. Forthwith, the
