NO DOGS ALLOWED ON TRAIN
Eut Conductor Had Embarrassing Mo-
ment When He Undertook to Ban.
ish Canine to Baggage.

Soon after the train had started,
the conductor in collecting his fares,
noticed q small white dog with a
bushy tail and bright black eyes. costly
sitting on a seat beside a young lady.
She was quite pretty, but the conduc-
tors duty was plain.
"Tm very sorry. madam" he said
with unusual suavity, "but it's against
the rules to have dogs in the passen-
ger cars"
ooh! dear! is that 500" replied the
young lady, looking beseechingly from
her brown eyes. "What shall I DO? l
can't throw him away. He's a present
for my aunt
Throw him away! BY no means,
miss! Wen put him in the baggage
car, and he'll be just cs happy as the
robins in spring"
"What-put my nice white dog in
your dirty old baggage carr"
am sorry, miss, but the rules of
this company must be enforced. He
shall have my overcoat to lie on, an<
the brakeman will give him crackers
and milk every time he opens his
mouth"
81 Just know somebody will steal
him." she objected.
But the conductor was firm, and
called out to the brakeman, who was
carrying a signal flag.
"Here, Mike, put this dog in the bag
gage car, and tell them to take the best
of care of him."
The brakeman picked up the dog as
carefully as if it were baby. There
was a sudden twitching of the facial
muscles, and he hastily said to the con-
ductor:
"Here, you just hold him minute
till I put this flag away"
Out Of the car door he went, and
held on to the brake wheel, shaking
like a man with ague. "
The conductor laid his hands on the
dog, aud then
"Why-wh-why-this is a worsted
dog!" hea gasped.
eyes, sir," replied the little miss,
demurely; didn't you know that?"
''No, miss, am sorry to say 1 didn't
know that"
He dropped the dog and began shout
ing: "Tickets! Show your tickets!"

Deep Sea Diving Now Feasible.

Experiments made by the British ad-
miralty and the United States navy
prove that deep-sea diving is feasible,
says Popular Science Monthly.
It has been found that the shorter
the time a diver takes In getting to
the bottom the better, because the
body absorbs less nitrogen. Also, the
diver must have at least one and one
half cubic feet Of air per minute at
all depths.
Lacing the legs Of the divers suit
increases his stability and permit
him to come to an erect position with
ease. It also lessons the danger OF
his falling or being suddenly blown
TO the surface.

War COSTLY NOW
Artillery Expense of Mode, Army
Corps S82o,000 a Day.
Outlay in Gun Metal and Powder Is
. Heavy and Vast Amount Of Ma.
teral Is Required for
;; the Trenches.

WQo0 IL IS romSmDoroU tldl lllCAC
are today under arms more than "a
100000 soldiers in the European war,
the immensity of the task of keeping
them supplied with the munitions
with which they wage war will ap-
pear. 1t has been estimated that 1t
costs approximately S100 to outfit
soldier. Of this S25 goes for gun
and S35 for his 1000 rounds of car
tridges. The average life of uniform
under modern service conditions is
very short; that of the ordinary rifle
is six months. In all Of the history
Of war there never has been such
rapid exhaustion of all of the materl-
ais with which it is made, says the Ma
tional Geographic Society Bulletin.
A 75-centimeter gun can fire about
400 projectiles day. Each of these
,projectiles costs approximately So.
Counting this and the depreciation OF
the gun, which is particularly rapid,
the daily outlay for its operation
amounts to Zoo. It is estimated that
the 12O 75-centimeter cannon in an
army corps, fred all day, cost in mu-
nitions and depreciation $4,000. In
addition to this, each army corps has
about forty pieces Of heavy artillery.
Explosives and depreciation for a sim
gle days work for them totals $780,
600, making the total artillery expense
of an army corps $4,000 day.
IF the outlay in gun metal and pow
der is heavy, it is no more so than the
outlay for materials demanded by the
present necessities of trench warfare.
An officer who has studied this phase
of the present war carefully says that
to put a trench In state fit for occu-
patton in winter requires 1,25O,ooo
running feet of by 8 timber, $4,000
running feet of corrugated iron, $780,
600 sandbags weighing 1000 tons and
24,OOO standards and pickets to the
mile. In addition to this, 900 miles
of barbed wire has to be used, weigh
ing no tons. When one stops to re-
call the hundreds Of miles of trenches
which stretch across Europe in diff
ferent directions and how often Sec
tions of these trenches have to be re-
built, he can gain some idea OF the
tremendous amount Of material re-
quired in their antftting.
Another picture of the vastness OF
the munitioning trade and the i'm
mensity of the task of keeping the
armies in the field and in fighting con-
dition may be had from the statement
that there are now more than 1000 con-
trolled munition plants in Great Brit
ain alone. Of these 10 out of 20 new
er produced war materials before the
war broke out. They employ nearly
5000, 900 men and nearly 1000 wom-
en-. The vastness of the industry in
England is not out of proportion to
that in France. Although Germany
holds 70 per cent of Frances coal and
some 80 per cent of it's iron, France
has been able, by the opening up OF
new furnaces and by immense impor-
5 tations of ore and pig metal, largely
to overcome this handicap.

THE CETTINC-WELL
 STAGE OF GRIP
Most Dangerous Period
 How To Gain Strength

The long pull in getting over the grip demands that all the organs of the body be kept in their best work ing form, not only to drive out the poison left by the grip germ, but that the patient shall regain strength as soon as possible to avoid further att tacks resulting from the poisons in the system, paralyzing the greater part of the tissues of the body and the organs which they compose.
 Forced nutrition Is @ means toward good health after the grip-as it is a means of preventing the entrance of the grip germ to the system. Father Johns Medicine treats grip and builds up the body because it is all pure nourishment and free from opium, morphine. chloroform or other poison ous drugs. Father Johns Medicine has had 60 years success for colds and throat troubles, coughs and sore throats. and as tonic and body builder.

EASY FARMING.

He sat around the country store When spring was in It's prime And talked about the things he'd do When he should find the time. He told about the crops he'd plant, And what would be the yield Of corn and hay and other stun That grew upon each field. But spring slipped out and summer
 came,
 And still he held his place Upon a nail-keg on the porch,
 A smile upon his face He sat around the country store When summer days were fair; The naH-keg wore his trousers thin
 He Swapped it for a chair. And there he sat and told them how When fall should come he'd SOW By far the biggest crop of wheat They'd ever seen him grow. But summer went and fall came ous The golden gIories died. The wind took on a cutting edge. And then he moved Inside. And there beside the stove he sat
 When winter days were chill: And listened to the idle chat
 But kept on farming still. Bach year he does the se1f-same thing, He does not plant or blow. But seems to take a rare delight In telling others how. Ofttimes his ne1Rhbors ScOff at him He seems to think it fair For still he sits around and does His farming in a chair.
