Because e. II. Sothern, without
doubt the greatest actor now on the
American stage. has said his farewell
to New York, Is no reason that this
should be regarded as his farewell to
other cities, and like Forbes-Robertson
and Romeo, Sothern himself may have
discovered the inherent truth under
lying the Immortal quotation that
Parting is such sweet sorrow.''

has been so overcome by the over

Physioc Scenery.
Silvio Helm selected Joseph Physioc
to design and execute the scenery for
the production of "The Merry Wives
of Windsor" in which he stars with
Thomas A. Wise, Constance Collier
and Isabel Irving. Mr.. Wise assisted
Mr.. Helm in his decision and together
they FIRST examined several ideas of
prominent exponents of the advanced
impressionistic school. When the con-
elusion to utilize Mr.. Physioc, who
designed for Richard Mansfield during
his entire career, was reached, Mr..
Wise remarked:
THE members of. the impression
istie school have rpt advanced far
enough to handle rrfal England and
rural America They may be able to
hit the high lights of rural Russia or
rural Rumania, but when It comes to
rural something that we know about,
we've got to tell them where to get
of-and see that they get off. The
ehafaeters of "The Merry Wives of
Windsor" are the most natural in the
world and the scenic treatment must
be just at natural"

More Prosperity.

Effective March 1st, the section
men of the NJ. r. & B. T. Ry. will get
ten cent increase on the day and the
wages of the shop men have been re-
adjusted SO that nearly all of the men
of that department will get an increase
amounting to about cent an hour on
the day. The ten cent increase with
the section men bring their wages up
$1.60 day. This is ten cents more
than most roads pay for this unskilled
labor, $1.50 being an average days
pay for a section hand. For some
reason unknown to the world section
men are about the poorest paid work
men of all laborers. On the M. R. &
B. T. Ry. there are about 100 men in
cluding extra gangs that will be af-
fected by this raise of wages.
Something like this same number
will receive an increase in the shops.
Not all the men will get an increase.
There are few, according to F. j..
Thomure, General Manager, who are
getting in the neighborhood of stand
ard machinist's pay that will not be
affected. In the adjustment to get
wages more equalized for the different
classes of labor some will get more
than a cent an hour increase while
others will get less, but making an
average of about one cent an hour

Most insects may. be controlled by
spraying. There are two distinct
types of insects, those that chew their
food, and those that get their food by
sucking the sap. The control of the
first type Of insects is best carried on
by spraying their food. Spray the
plant with some poison, which, when
taken into its stomach will kill the
insect.
1t happens those insects which OBJ
tain their food by sucking the sap have
thin, soft bodies. The plant may be
rid of them by applying spray that
will burn or dry them up. Thus it ia
possible to control these insects with
out injuring the plants upon which
they feed.
Water is the best carrying medium.
To this should be added the other
things that go to make up the spray.
A perfect coating of the spray is de-
sired in all cases, as it is best to supply
it under pressure. "a pressure Of 200
to $50 pounds gives excellent results if
the outfit is in good condition.

Gasoline from Shale.

In view OF the eVer-increasing de-
mand for gasoline and the increase in
price of crude oil, from which it is OBJ
tained, it is important to know that
an almost inexhaustible supply of oil
may be obtained from the shale Of
northwestern Colorado, northeastern
Utah, and southwestern Wyoming.
This shale contains materials which,
VIXEN heated, may be converted into
s9<nde oil, gas, and ammonia. The
high cost Of distiling oil from shals
as compared to the cost Of producing
oil from wells has thus far prevented
the devevopment in this country Of
such an industry and may continue
to prevent it for some time, but soon
er or later this great source Of supply
will be utilized to supplement the de-
creasing production from the regular
oil fields.
The oil derived from the shale Is
similar to that which 10 beiEg produc-
ed from wells in the United States at
the rate Of more than 25o,OOO,0oO bar
rels year When refined by ordin-
ary methods the shale oil yields an
