REALLY NO TROUBLE AT ALL
Druggist Found It Easy to Decipher
Handwriting That Had Proved
Puzzle to Drummer.

John Carpetbags was one Of the
most successful travellers on the road.
On one occasion he was sent out by
his people to try to get an order from
big firm which gave all its orders to
a rival firm.
Such were his persuasive powers
that within half an hour he had Sc
cured a big order in the handwriting
Of the senior partner.
Unfortunately, this gentleman pos
sessed such an atrocious style of calig-
raphy that not a word was legible.
However, Carpetbags remembered that
druggists can usually read anything
in the way Of handwriting, because of
their wide experience with doctors
prescriptions. So he handed in the
letter to the local druggist.
Il wonder if you can read thatr
he asked.
The druggist took it and returned to
the back Of the shop. Ten minutes la
ter he reappeared with a small bottle
wrapped in paper and sealed.
"Oh, yes, sir 1t was quite easy

EVOKED PRAISE OF SURGEONS
Instruments Used by Romans 1900
Years Ago Almost Identical With
Those Employed Today.

An exhibition of ancient Roman sur
gical instruments of bronze, so perfect
In their mechanics and principle Of op-
Grafton that they might be used in the
present day, was the wonder Of hun
dreds of visiting surgeons at the Patho-
logical museum in the Jefferson Med
ical college at Philadelphia.
Unearthed in volcano-smothered Her
culaneum, they are In almost perfect
condition, beautifully fashioned, etched
and carved instruments of bronze for
the surgeons Of the ancient Roman EN-
pire evidently were artists as well as
healers.
The remarkable fact for the visit
Ing surgeons was that the instruments
are in mechanical way singularly like
the most modern instruments applied
to similar uses-modern instruments
whose perfection has been gained only
after centuries of study and improve
ment. The ancient instruments are
much more complex in their operation
than those of modern times, but have
been made and adapted to particular
uses with wonderful ingenuity. There
are number Of Instruments used for
genealogical work and to aid in
births, and an equipment of scissors,
forceps for various uses, lances and
knives.
One famous surgeon from the West
examined the specimens very carefully
and admiringly declared that if the in
struments were refurbished and
cleaned and sharpened he would not
be afraid to perform an operation with
them even at this day. Il think these
instruments over 1900 years old are
better than the instruments in use by
physicians 200 years ago." he said.

 While the inc: ease of rates continues ir force I have no doubt that many me mbers of the public will prefer walking to riding, and that on some lines the company will find a decrease in receipts.

THE NEW HAVEN ROAD.

After what might be considered a stormy session. though the strength of the opposition is not manifested in the vote, the stockholders of the New Haven road have approved the idea of issuing $4s.000,0o0 of preferred stock bearing interest at seven per rent. The privilege to take this step was granted by the legislatures of Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. It was action which had been threatened for some time because of
 the financial condition of the system
 and it Is action which gives promise of being the needed tonic for placing the road in a position to recover from
 its years of trouble.
 The preferred stock issue will be
 used to take up the floating indebted ness of the road. It will overcome the
 necessity of doing . lot of new 1i- nancing every year in order Go meet notes as they come due and in the long run will save much money. The floating indebtedness has always been handicap and the effects of 1t have
 been more seriously felt in late years as financial difficulties have multi
 piled.
 With that eliminated, PrAsident Pearson and the officials of the road
 have good reason for the optimistic
 view which they take of the roaA's g
 future. By their action the stock
 holders have given q vote of conf
 dence to those who arc administer
 ing it's affairs. The work of reestab-
 fishing the system has been under
 way for several years. Some prog
 ress has been made and with the prop
 CT cooperation on the part of the. gov
 ernment, which the officials believe is
 more favorably disposed than it has
 been, and the continued support from the people of New England, who know and believe in the future of the road, the desired end Is sure to be attained.

cooking is two- thirds done. The sugar which settles on the bottom of barrel of New Orleans molasses is excellent for this purpose. A pound Fer gallon is usually sufficient but this amount is a matter of taste, as is also the amont or cinnamon, allspice and uclove to be aded when the cook ing Is done.
 Pack hot into container with tight ly fitting covers and sterilized in steam vessel set over fire. For a quart jar, sterilize five minutes in this larger jars. This sterilization Is for irg. spelling or infection of the tcp layer of apple butter and also to take the place of paraGin, which Is now quite expensive. If the sterilization method is not followed, then hot paraffin should be poured over the fruit butter to prevent it from spoilage.
 Apple Butter with Grape Juice If a. grape flavor is desired in apple butter 1t may be obtained by the use of grape juice. To each gallon of peeled and sliced apples, cooked into sa uce and strained, one pint of grape juice, one cup of brown sugar. and ore quarter of a teaspoonful of salt should be adcd. These should cook slowly and he stirred often for two hours or until of the desired thick ness, then stir in one teaspoouful of cinnamon and pack hot in hot con- tainers and sterilize as directed for other apple butter.

HISTORY TOLD IN sILvERWARE

powerful lathes and presses accom- 7plish in seconds the work of days under old conditions. .x
 Nevertheless, he declares, we can produce no better silverware than could the old craftsman working with bis primitive tools. The silversmith of Colonial days knew thoroughly every. branch of his trade. . He was a designer, die-sinker, forger, solderer, burnisher, chaser, and engraver. He was a many-sided man, and he did thorough work.
 Let no one fancy him as other than a man of might, for muscle and sinew were as needful in fashioning plate as in the trade of blacksmith ing.
 With his hammers, anviIs, beak irons, testers. swages, punches, plan ishing hammers and stakes and draw ing benches, he skilfully shaped the beautiful white metal. putting feel ing into his work that is generally missing in modern silver.
 Owners of old silver will, perhaps, va 1uo their possessions the more, for what MT. Curtis has to say of these forgotten craftsmen, although Nor wich residents are profoundly thank >ful that one or it's most hourishing industries. the local branch of the International Silver Company, at Thamesville, is turning out thousands of dozens of the modern for1.A, of the ware, machine-made, albeit lack ing that artistic feeling which Mr. Curtis ext0ls!

OTHER VIEW POINTS

Vice President Campbell of the New Haven railroad answers the charges of the preparedness committee, to which we gave publicity day or two ago. to the effect that it had diverted traffic from it's steamboat lines to its rail lines and thus failed to make use of the alternative water route for the re- lief of the mail route. MT Campbell quotes from the annual report of the interstate commerce commission last December. after an investigation Tn which it said that the use by the New Haven road of it's water lines had been of invaluable service for the conVen- fence and the commerce of the people, and that it would be a great mistake to discontinue the present ownership and operation. This he considers a sufficient answer to the charge which he deplores at this time, when the railroads of the country are exertinE every energy to coordinate all their facilities for the services of the coun- try in the prosecution of the war; Waterbury American.
