Big
Kind That Are Used on the
Plate Glass Wagons.
Trolinbly about as costly a sort of
mattress as any is one that is made
not to sleep on, at all, but to spread
on the long, broad table or platform of
the wagons built for carrying plate
glass.
These mattresses, which are made of
curled hair, are very thin, scarcely
thicker than a comfortable, and must
lie made with the greatest care to in
sure perfect uniformity of thickness.
A lump anywhere would be likely to
break the plate of glnss resting upon
It. and there would be still greater
danger if the weight of two plates of
glass was rested on the lump at once.
A mattress for a plate glass wagon ;
costs, according to size, from $t’>0 to
$75. In use the corners of smaller ,
plates carried on It cut Into the tick- j
ing covering, and sooner or Inter it has j
to be made over. Simply to make over
such a mattress costs from $'20 to $25. j
On the table topped and mattress
covered glass wagons^ the
plates are carried with contldence and
snfety. The table Is built to remain
absolutely rigid, and the thin but uni
form mattresf. protects the plate from
Jar.
Before plate glnss store fronts had
come into common use. when the han
dling of a big plate was counted as a
good deal more of a job than It Is now.
they used to carry a gitat pane of
glnss in a sort of frame, which was
put on the wagon with the glass in it.
At its destination this frame or sup
port was worked carefully across the
sidewalk to the store front, where the
glass was dislodged from It to be set,
and altogether the setting of a great
plate of glnss was then <|Ulte an un
dertaking.
Now, with the setting of such plates
a common dally occurrence and with
men skilled In the handling of them,
they simply carry n big plate out and
lay it on their mattress covered table
topped wagon and carry it to where
it is to go and there slide It off. to rest
it for a moment on blocks on the side
walk, and then they pick it up and
carry It to the window front.
Then they run under the lower edge
of the glass lifting straps, by which
men standing inside the window as
well as men stnndlug outside can lift
on it when the glnss is put Into place
in the window fraige. There again It
is raised on blocks until the straps can
be withdrawn..and then the blocks are
taken out and the. glass secured in
place, all this being done with great
care, but still with comparative ease
and quickness and with certainty, and
Jn these times great panes of glass
are thus moved and set on all but tho
windiest days.—Gloveloml Plain Dealer.

The Clever “Malamutes” That Carry
the Mails In Alaska.
The Eskimo begins to train bis dog
for sledge work before It is n month
old. One of the most Interesting fea
tures of Eskimo villages are puppies
tied to the polo of a tent They pull
on the rope with all their puppy
strength In tho effort to break uway
and Join In the frolics of their elders.
Not until a dog bred for mail service
la one year old Is it put In training for
the trail. It begins by running ten
miles with the team; then tt la dropped
out. Next day It runs the same dis
tance. Gradually the distance Is in
creased until It reaches Its fifteenth
month of life, when It becomes part of
the regular service. The life of a mall
dog is from threo to four yqimt. No
greater punishment can be mfiicted
than to lay a dog off from service.
When unruly tney are often threat
ened with a lay-off, and with almost
hum*n intelligence they seem to un
derstand the disgrace it Implies In the
eyes of their fellow workers on the
trail. All fight to be leaders. A con
stant spur to an unambitious dog Is
the “outsider,” who will quickly take
away the leadership not only in the
mall service, but in teams maintained
chiefly for the pleasure of the sport
The intelligence of the malamute is re
markable. its scent wonderful, its in
stinct, as a rule, unerring.
Some dogs are better trail followers
than others, as some are tietter lead
ers. In a blizzard the best of them
lose the trail, but invariably And it.
When on the trail they never eat but
once a day, then at the end of n jour
ney. After feeding, like weary chil
dren, they full asleep and are never
quarrelsome. It takes on an average
twenty pounds of food a day for a
team of eleven dogs on a hard-route.—
Lida Rose McCabe in St. Nicholas.

Navy l» Never Done.
A navy, like a railroad, is never
done. There never comes the grateful
moment when the work can lie said to
be finished and the sole task left to be
discharged is that of operation. As tho
roadbed, track, equipment of a rail
road must be constantly maintained
and Improved, so if there is to be any
navy at all equipment must be con
stantly improved and brought up to
date, even under the policy of “re
placement and repair.”—Boston Tran
script. ,
Royal Crowns.
Royal crowns have tended to become
lighter. Thus, one made in the middle
ages weighed over seven pounds, that
of George IV. weighed five and one-
half pounds, while Queen Victoria’s
crown, containing the great ruby
which belonged to the Black Prince,
weighed three and one-quarter pounds.
I hereby announce myself a candi
date for Tax Receiver of Washington

“With the exception of his hands and
feet, my son Clyde (thirteen years old)
■was almost completely covered with
eczema. Physicians treated him for
nearly a year without helping him any.
While they wero very kina apu did all in
their power, yet nothing seemed to re
lieve him. And I had tried many rem
edies sent to mo by kind friends but they
all failed. His head, face, and neck were
covered with large scabs which he would
rub until they fell off. Then blood and
matter would run out and that would be
worse. Many a time he looked as if
his cars would drop off. Friends com
ing to see him said that if ho got well he
would be disfigured for life.
"When it seemed ns if he could pos
sibly stand it no longer, I decided to
try Cuticura. I bought a cake of Cuti-
cura Soap, a box of Cuticura Ointment,
and a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, I
used them in the evening and that was
tho first night for nearly a year that he
slept. This may *ound exaggerated
to you, but in the morning there was a
great change for the better. In about
six weeks you could not have told that
he had ever had anything wrong with him.
I treated him twice a day for six months
and at present he has a fine complexion
and not a scar on his body. This story
may seem overdrawn, but neither words
nor pen can describe Clyde’s suffering
and now he looked. Our leading phy
sician, Dr. -, recommends the Cuti
