Changing Locomotive Whistle.

Frof. Arthur Foley, physicist OF
the University fo Indiana, urgesS the
change OF locomotive whistles from
their present type to one which will
be IL better warning sound; likewise
he urges placing il elsewhere on the
engine, as at present its sound is broad
cast after hitting the smokestack and
bell, instead of being directed straight
ahead of the engine. He says it takes
2,434,026 tons of coal to tcot the
whistles on the locomotives in the
United States in a years time. The
adoption of d single shrill whistle in
stead of the chime" whistle now used
would save five millions a year in

TNOR more than three years the Massachusetts, lnst
J. tute of Technology has been making exhaustive
investigation of Coffee This investigation was made
at the invitation of the Coffee trade of the United States
to determine by scientific research the whole truth about
Coffee and Coffee making, and it Of the most
thorough Investigations made of any food product
The result of this scientific research announced by
Professor Samuel c. Prescott Director OF the Institutes
Department of Biology and Public Health shows that
Coffee is wholesome helpful, satisfying drink for the
great majority of people.
The report many hundreds of pages for every
aspect of Coffee and Coffee making studied, but
in just one paragraph of nnety-two words Professor
Prescott has swept aside all the old preudices and
superstitions and given Coffee the cleanest bill OF
health that could be wished. He says:
at may be stated that, after weighing the evidence,
dspassonae evauaton of the data cOmprehensively
surveyed has led alarming conclusions that coffee
an injurious beverage for the great of human
beings but the contrary that the history of human
experience as well the results of scientific experiment
tation point to the fact that coffee beverage which,
properly prepared and rightly used, gives comfort and
inspiration ausents mental and physical activity and
may be regarded the rather than the destroyer
of civilization"
This statement, coming from such an unquestioned
scientific authority should be source of satisfaction
and relief to every true lover of Coffee and should
establish for all time, the fact that Coffee sa whole
some drink for the great mass of human beings.
