SEE GRAVE DANGER RAILROAD ACCIDENTS ALARM BRITISH PUBLIC. Recent Smashups NDue to En^ftrieers Being Unfit for f>utjr--Demand . for Frequent Medical Ex­ amination Is Made. After the disastrous train smash at Shrewsbury, England, a year or so ago, Lloyd-George, then president of the board of trade, was present at the inquiry which was made. He then e m p h a s i z e d t h e question whether e n g i n e d r i v e r s should not be medically examined at regular intervals. He was informed that drivers were merely required to past a medical examination before en­ tering the service and that the exam­ ination of the driver concerned in the Shrewsbury accident must have taken place 40 years before the occurrence. For a while the matter was taken up with considerable keenness by the public. The Grantham accident, Which happened to a boat train in which there were many American passen­ gers, had occurred not long before, and in both cases it was suggested that the drivers were suffering from illness. Still nothing was done with regard to compulsory examination of engine drivers. An accident to a Midland railway train near Nottingham has revived the topic. A crowded train after leaving Nottingham dashed through the next station at high speed, although the sig­ nals were against it. Fortunately the runaway was switched on to a branch line just in time to let the London- Bradford express dash by. When the fireman had brought the train to a standstill the driver was found lying helpless on the footplate, struck down by paralysis. In May an engine driver died on the "footplate from fatty degeneration of the heart a few minutes after he had taken his train out of Newcastle. In April the board of trade received a re­ port of the collisicn due to a driver's mismanagement which was attributed to the man's debilitated condition and to the fact that he was in the last stages of a mortal complaint. On December 26 last, an engine driver fell in the street just after he had brought his train into Crewe, and he died the next day. In October a driver fell dead from heart disease while driving a train from Loughbor­ ough to Leicester. In the same month another driver was struck down by paralysis just , as he left his engine, while still another driv­ er died in that month who w a s a t w o r k though suffering from iocotomor ataxia. The collection of such a number of cases as this in a short time would seem to point to the necessity for reform. -- London Telegraph. NOT MEANT AS A WARNING. Fireman Was Unduly Alarmed at His Dog's Absence. Tommie Marr, when he was a fire­ man on a freight used to have, and In fact has yet, a dog that is greatly Interested in railroads, at least so Tommie says. . Every time Tommie started out for the yards to get his engine the dog would follow him, which, of course, is strange, consider­ ing that it is a dog's nature to follow his master, but Tommie claims the dog never bothered about following him unless he was starting to work. Every day the dog would watch and when Tommie went downtown to play pool with the boys the bowwow paid no attention, but as soon as he set out for the railroad the dog trotted after him. The dog had been in the habit of doing this for a long time, when one day he didn't show up as time came to start for the yards. Tommie wor­ ried over his dog's strange desertion, and the more he thought of it the more he wondered and worried. Final­ ly he had come to the conclusion that the dag knew in some strange way that there was going to be an acci­ dent and couldn't bear to see his mas­ ter leave on what would probably be l*ls last trip. Then Tommie had it all figured out --not to his satisfaction, however--he began to plan how he might escape the impending danger. He didn't stop to think that if the dog knew some­ thing was going to happen to his mas­ ter, why, then something cartalnly had to happen, for if there was a way to escape the danger and Tommie took advantage of that way out of the dif­ ficulty, why, of course, the dog ought to have known that also, and conse­ quently the canine shouldn't have felt worried. As the engine dragged its long line of cars slowly along a newly laid piece of track Tommie had time to think over what he would do when the wreck occurred, for he felt sure there was to be a wreck of some kind. While thinking over this Tommie was slowly shoveling in coal, and Just then deciding that he ought to tell the en­ gineer, so that he also would be warned, be straightned up. There was a blinding flash of a headlight in his eyes, a roar of a fast train rushing upon them, and Tommie, without stopping to shout at the en­ gineer, jumped overboard, rolled over and over down the bank, and splashed Into a pool of water, while the passen­ ger train that had frightened him went by on the other track that had been put in a few days before. When Tcmmie returned home he learned that his dog had been chasing a cat and didn't see his master leave the house, which accounted for his failure to accompany him as usual to the roundhouse.--Chicago Tribune.

An experiment in tree culture by which it was hoped to supplant white oak as the standard tree for railroad ties with another had been tried and found wanting by the Rio brande & Western railroad, says the New York Times. Senator Reed Smoot of Utah, chairman of the forestry division of the committee on national resources, which was appointed last June by President Roosevelt, told of this ex­ periment a few days ago, just after getting back from a trip through Ger­ many, France and Switzerland, where he studied the forestry methods in those countries, with an idea of adapt­ ing some of them to conditions here. "That experiment of the Rio ; Grande & Western was with catalpa \ trees," said Senator Smoot. "It was | begun several years ago. At that i time there was fear that the white | oak trees, which furnished most of i the ties for the railroads of the United States, would soon be exterminated, j The price of ties had gone up. Great ; forests of ^hite oak throughout the j country had been slaughtered and the railroads found it hard to get good ties. The white oak is far from a rapid grower and it would take years for the oak forests to grow up again to a size large enough to make rail­ road ties. "At that time there was some talk of the catalpa tree being a good substi­ tute for the white oak. It was a much softer wood, but had been tried in a small way for ties by some of the railroads. So the Rio Grande & Western decided to plant a large double avenue of catalpa along its lines of track through Utah. "It took a large force of men many weeks to plant the trees, but the rail­ road made a mistake by not protect­ ing them from cattle and rodents. The result was that what might have been one of the most beautiful pieces of road in the country now has a rather ragged appearance, and the experi­ ment was a dismal failure." Varisty of Ways in Which the Work May Be Done. There are a variety of methods used In storing celery. Wheie the celery Is grown for home use it is usually either stored in the place where it grew or in the cellar. When it is stored in the field where it grew the soil is banked up high around the plants so that only a few of the tips are exposed When the weather be­ comes colder the ridge is covered with straw or leases which are held down by boards or earth. When the ground commences to freeze the entire ridge Is covered with several Inches of 6trawy stable manure. The celery may be removed from the ridge as de­ sired for use, but during a part of the winter it wih be inaccessible. A cool, we!l-ventilated cellar Is a good place to store celery in small amounts, suggests Wallace's Farmer. The celery may be stored in boxes whose sides cofe up even with the celery tops. In the bottoms of the boxes Is placed a layer of moist sand or earth in which the celery roots are bedded. Holeti should be bored in the sides and bottom of the boxeB for ventilation and drainage. The plants should be watered at the roots occa­ sionally when signs of wilting appear. Larger amounts of celery are stored in similar fashion by covering the cel­ lar floor with a layer of moist sand or earth and holding the celery in place Dy means of boards. Market garden­ ers have regular trenches or store­ houses for their celery, but the meth­ ods herein described are the usual ones practiced by the small grower. FALL MOWING. Locomotive Most Useful Invention. Over 200,000 readers of the Petit . Journal of Paris, one of the most widely-circulated newspapers In 1 France, have just declared It their t opinion that the locomotive is the ! most useful invention of modern times. The newspaper in question re | cently started, a ballot to decide upon the 12 modern discoveries or inven- j tions which had rendered the greatest service to humanity. The results were j not such as one would ordinarily ex pect. The list comes in the following j order: The locomotives, potatoes, vaccine, the cure of hydrophobia, j sugar, the telegraph, matches, the ! steam boiler, the telephone, petroleum. I the sewing machine, and soap. While the locomotive received 275,197 votes, | soap at the other end of the list only j received 117,817. The humble bicycle [ received £0,000 votes, and the automo- j bile 60.000. As for the tramway. It j received the humiliating minority ol | 22,000 votes. This shows that all j phases of locomotion are not equally popular. Thousands of readers of the ! Petit Journal are evidently still con- i fldent in the scientific prowess of f Lemoine, for they cast their votes In i favor of that modem discovery, the artificial diamond. Work That Can Well Be Done When Other Tasks Are Light. When work is not pressing it will often pay handsomeiy to run the mow­ er over meadows, pastures and new sown grass fields, leaving the clip­ pings to lie on the ground during the winter. Grass or clover sown with wheat or oats and not cut for hay is benefited by a clipping like this. Many weeds are cut down and made useful to the grass as a mulch during the winter season. If allowed to mature they would continue to compete with the grass until they had ripened seed or were killed by frost. Often it is wise to take the grass off the better portions of a field for hay, leaving the clippings on the thin parts, together with the weeds and other refuse, as a protection for the young grass, suggests Farm and Home. It even pays sometimes to rake the poorer part of the cuttings frtun the good land to the less fertile spots. Continued clippings with a mower will get rid of many weeds, brters and bushes easier and cheaper than it can be done in any other way For this reason, the mowing of an old pasture, especially if there are many weeds on it, is nearly always a profit­ able job. The weed clipped off while still green is yet a weed, but it will decay and fertilize the soil, and is not half so bad a weed as if left to go to seed and become a nuisance. Medical Assurance.

For the sim­ ple reason that It doubles the life and easy working of them, says the Agricultural Gazette of New South Wales. This being so, what oil is the best to use, and what is the best way to apply it? Without going chemically Into the reason why, which would take too long to explain, it has been found, from centuries of experience, that, like the old carpenter's rule of "wood to wood, iron to iron," in working tools, the rule in oiling is "vegetable oil to vegetable matter, animal oil to animal matter, metal, or stone." Of the vegetable oils, we have raw and boiled linseed, and castor, from plants; of the animal, neat or bul­ lock 's-foot (neat stood for bullock in Anglo-Saxon) oil, and fat or tallow. These are the only ones we need con­ cern ourselves with; the others are of no use to us. The raw linseed oil is pale yellow In Color, and runs easily as water; if dark, yellow, and sticky it has been adulter­ ated with cheap fish oil. The boiled oil is naturally much more sticky than the raw, a lot of the moisture having been driven off In the boiling; It is also darker in color than the raw. The difference in the use of these oils is that the raw oil penetrates the wood-fibers right through, and only forms a skin outside when these wood- fibers can absorb no more of It. The boiled linseed, on the other hand, Is too viscous or thick to enter the wood- fibers, and makes a skin on the out­ side at once. Thus you can see that if you are oiling or painting wood for yourself (paint is only white or red lead mixed up with oil and coloring matter), use the best raw Unseed; and, if doing a cheap job for someone else, use only the boiled; the wood will soon decay as the boiled oil skin wears off, but that Is none of your business. It is unnecessary to describe castor oil; we have all made its acquaint­ ance at some time or other; its only use is to oil machinery, being cheaper than neatsfoot. The best way to handle these oils is to buy a drum of each; then get four sound old drums, fix a small brass tap on each, near the bottom, and put them on a stand about three feet from the ground. You will then be able to use the oil to the last drop without waste; you can get a rebate on the new drums, or keep them for hog or pig buckets. Now, to apply these oils: First, the linseed. For oiling handles of any sort, take an empty golden syrup or jam tin, see that it is perfectly clean and dry, and half fill it with your raw linseed; stand your handle or handles in it, and leave them there for a couple of days. Then reverse them in the pot, and, after a couple of days, take them out and give them a rub over with a raw linseed oily rag. They are now fit for use, will spring well, and stand thf weather with Impunity if the wood in them is any good at all. You oil planes differently. For the tryer, jacks, and smoother, you first remove the wedge and iron. Now block the bottom of the opening (or "mouth") of the well, as carpenters call it, securely with putty, and pour raw linseed oil into it till almost full. Leave it for a couple of days, and you will find that the thirsty beech has drunk up all the oil. Fill her up again and she will soak up about half of that. When you find she will drink no more, pour the rest back into the drum, remove the putty, clean, and she is ready for work. If you want a pretty plane, rub the sideB and top well with the oil also; she will then look as if she had been polished. If likely to get rough treatment, give her sides and top a coat of boiled oil all over; this saves planes won­ derfully. For other planes, leave them in a billy of oil for a couple of days, first removing the iron (the wedge wants oiling as well). Then rub them on the sides, and they are reaSy for work Iron planes, of courso, you do not oil at all, except the Ud or wearing surface. You must keep on giving this a dab with raw linseed or, preferably neatsfoot, oil, or you will not be able to work it at all. To apply neatsfoot: YOu must keep a little oil can full of it on the bench; when your oil stone will not bite, or your suws cling, or feel a bit rusty, flirt a few drops on as needed. Grease or fat will answer the same purpose, but Is not as good. More Than Willing to Make Transfer with Physician. A Syracuse business man who, be­ sides being extremely active and am­ bitious, has much sense of humor, was taken sick with a slight attack of pneumonia. His physician, aware that it would be a task to keep his high- strung patient in bed, sought to im­ press on him the seriousness of the ailment and the necessity of absolute rest; all of which the sick man lis­ tened to in a bored manner. Never­ theless he consented to obey the doo- tor. But this enforced inactivity rankled In him; and each succeeding day found the patient Importuning the medical man attendant to allow him to get out to business. Then, dis­ gusted, he would lie back to cast im­ precations at the Inexorable physl-j clan. One morning the physical, after having been up all night on an im­ portant case, appeared at his patient's house at the usual hour. He had hard-! ly stuck his haggard face inside the door, however, before the man In the! bed gave him a quick glance and sat up. "Eh? ejaculated the patient. Then shoving out his hand to grasp the doo- tor's satchel, he added: "Doc, I guess you'd better get into bed here and let me go out with the medicine bag." WANTED IT OVER WITH. CURE AT CITY MISSION. Awful Case of Scabies--Body a Mast off Sores from Scratching--Her Tortures Yield to Cuticura. "A young woman came to our city mission in a most awful condition physi­ cally. Our doctor examined her and told us that she had scabies (the itch), incipient paresis, rheumatism, etc., wrought on from exposure. Her poor body was a mass of sores from scratch­ ing and she was not able to retain solid food. We worked hardover her for seven weeks but we could see little improve­ ment. One day I bought a cake of Cuticura Soap and a bottle of Cuti­ cura Resolvent, and we bathed our patient well and gave her a full dose of the Resolvent. She slept better that night and the next day I got a box of Cuticura Ointment. In five weeks this young woman was able to look for a position, and-she is now strong and well.

A stout and opulent man dwelling la a suburban town had borne the ex­ pense of the annual Sunday school picnic, and the superintendent of the school, out of gratitude, asked the benefactor to address the children. The philanthropist was not much of a speaker, but he was a master hand at poker. When he found himself gazing into the expectant faces of a hundred and fifty children his embarrassment almost overcame him, but he managed to stammer out: "My dear children, what I want to impress upon you is that--er--er--it pay's to be good.

No man yet was ever made more tender by having tenderness demanded of him; no man yet was ever cried into loving his wife more. I am will­ ing to admit that men are as faulty creatures as women themselves, un­ sympathetic in small things, often blind, and that they may easily be ex­ asperated into small brutalities of speech. If a woman refrains from ex­ acting devotion, and is unswervingly kind and unselfish, a husband who has any affection for his wife at all can be left to look out for doing his share. He will look out for it anyway; no one else can make him. Neither tears jior entreaties will wring from him those small kindnesses and attentions so dear to women.--A Wife, In Harper's Bazar.
