It was built for the purpose of carrying granite from the quarries of Quincy, Massachusetts, to the nearest tidewater. Its length was four miles, including branches, and its first cost $50,000. The sleep ers were of stone and were laid across the track eight feet apart. Upon rails of wood, six inches thick, wrought iron plates, three inches wide and a quarter of an inch thick, were spiked. At the crossings stone rails were used and as the wooden rails became un servicable they were replaced by oth ers of stone.—May Ladie’s Home Journal. oDb?

K-aT" The Editorial and Business Management ot this Paper Guarantee this generous Proposition* ft Little Mixed- A Montana legislator is said to have addressed the chair as follows: “I feel that for a plain man like me to address a body composed of so many law attorneys as this is indeed casting pearls before swine, or, in other words, to make my meaning plainer, the honor that I feel at the present time overcomes me as Goliath was overcome by David, I come be fore you armed with only the—the— organs that the good book says; let us ride a hobby in this legislature, lest it turn upon us, as did Balaam’s ass, and, in a loud voice, proclaim, ‘I am he.’” “That’s all right,” exclaimed a fel low member, “but you cannot bisect or dissect the woof or carping misan throphy from the web of immedicable pessimism. You are a polemic”— “You’re a liar!” interrupted the legislator. “I’m a populist.”—New York Tribune. FOR OVER FIFTY YEARS Winslow’s Soothing Syrup has been used for over fifty years by mil lions of mothers for their children while teething, with perfect success.

Sold by Druggists in every part of the world at 25 cents a bottle. Be sure and ask for Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup, and take no other kind. The bucket shops of Wall street have swindled 250,000 persons out of $20,000,000 in the last two or three years. And the bucket shop is only one variety of the almost innumerable devices by which clever roguery im presses upon the mind of dull roguery the practical value of the old maxim, “Honesty is the best policy.”—New York World. Thirty years is a long time to fight so painful a trouble as piles, but Jacob Mitchell, of Unionville, Pa., struggled that long before he tried DeWitts’s Witch Hazel Salve, which quickly and permanently cured him. It is equally effective in eczema and all skin affec tions. Dr. W. A. Wright.

Jklß BARBER POLES. Modi-rn Style* ami Deco nations Some Poles Are of Iron. They are using in the west to some extent now a barber pole of galvanized iron, winch ha-- bands and other orna mental projections and is painted in the same manner as a wooden polo. An other western pole has lour upright strips of irou, around which are wound spirally other iron strips, making a lat ticed pole. The spiral encircling strips are so painted as to form the usual stripes. There is talk now of alumin ium barber poles, which would he much more expensive, but would be of extreme durability and could always be sold at so much a pound. In the east the barber poles used are almost all made of wood, and in fact the barber poles everywhere are princi pally of wood. The wood commonly use is soft maple. Barber poles are made in various sizes, hut standard full size poles are made 1) and 10 feet in length and from Bto 12 inches in circumference. They are sometimes made 14 inches in cir cumference, but that is unusual. There is now in force in this city an ordinance requiring that outside barber poles shall be kept within the stoop line, and that they shall not exceed 5 feet in height. Before the adoption of that ordinance the largo pole most commonly used in this city was 10 feet in height and 10 inches in diameter. Since the ordinance came into force there has been here an increased use of door poles and window poles, these being very much slender er, and in the case of the window poles very much shorter. The door poles stand beside the doorway or entrance. In the case of a basement shop, where the poles would be at the beginning of the steps, and so in sight along the sidewalk, they tire placed upright. Wheu placed beside a ground floor door way, they are slanted outward slightly, so that the top projects beyond the building front. The window poles, which arc short little poles with a gild ed ball at each end, are fixed at an an gle to iron brackets secured to the win dow casing. A barber is likely to use two door poles, one on either side of the door, and ho may use window poles also, so that in this city the number of poles used is greater than ever before, though it may be that their aggregate bulk is no larger than that of the small er number of larger poles that once stood by the curbstones, or were other wise conspicuously placed, j There have been made barber poles with spiral stripes simulated by stripes painted diagonally on tapering strips of i board. Years ago, too, there were made | some lmrber poles of four strips of board, I tapering and nailed together, making an obelisk shaped sign, which was striped in the usual way. But the pole, usually in some simple form, was tho common thing, and this developed grad ually into the more elaborate pole now * commonly used, which is made with perhaps bands or other shapes turned or otherwise fastened upon it, and with greater riches and variety of ornamenta - tion. Pretty much all poles arc sur mounted by a gilded ball. Other shapes— pear, for instance—have been made for a finish, but the ball is the most popular. With the more elaborate poles, with bands and carvings and panels, and with tho spaces of the length moro broken up, came more elaborate styles of coloring, and more or less departure from the usual spiral stripes, poles being painted with the conventional colors, but with diamond shapes, and so on. But now, while poles are made as elab orately as ever in shape, there is rather more simplicity of coloring, and the most elaborate of poles are pretty sure to show the spiral striping somewhere, tho clear spaces on the pole between tho ornamental designs being thus painted. Less blue is used in stripes than for merly, the stripes being now usually of red and white, and the red generally used is a shade darker than formerly. More gold than ever is now used on the big ornamental poles. Besides, on the tops it is sometimes used in stars and other gildc and ornamentation, and there are poles of various sizes made with spiral gold stripes on a ldaek body in stead of a white body. These cost more than poles striped in colors, but the use of them is increasing. More black and gold poles are. used in the west, win re people seem to spend more money on barber poles than in the east. But ev erywhere the spiral stripes are the bar ber’s symbol, whether they are painted on a pole specially designed for a sign or 011 a telegraph pole, or, as may some times be seen in smaller places, around the trunk of a tree.—New York Sun. ‘•The Majority of Women.” The opponents of woman suffrage claim to represent the majority of wom en. The claim i.s baseless. The majority of women are neither suffragists nor they are indifferent. Of those who take any live ly interest in the question either way the large majority want to vote. This has been shown year after year by the relative numbers of petitioners and re monstrants. Not only in Massachusetts, but in Maine, New York, Illinois, lowa —in short, wherever petitions for suf frage and remonstrances against it have been sent in the petitioners have always outnumbered the remonstrants at least five to one, and oftener fifty or a hun dred to one. The so called referendum of 1895 merely demonstrated the same thing by an official count. —Boston Woman’s Journal. AliiiKgiviujc and It* ligion. For many years almsgiving has been regarded by the church as a mere acces sory to religion, and too often as a means of promoting attendance at its services and classes. Now time has worked out its revenge, and the people have come to regard services and classes —and, indeed, religion itself so far as they know it—as accessory to almsgiv ing and as a means of obtaining relief. It would sometimes seem as if the only hope for both lay in an entire divorce between the two.—“ Rich and Poor," by Mrs. Bosanquet. Some Facts About Nansen. Dr. Nansen’s first intention as to his calling in life was to study medicine. With tho idea of taking tho medical ex amination at Nordmarken, 110 began to study zoology, and at the suggestion of Professor Collett, in 1881 or there about, he shipped aboard a sealing ves sel—tho Viking—to train himself for descriptive zoological research. During this trip the Viking was for somo weeks caught in the ice off tlie eastern coast of Greenland, a::d N..nsen became filled with the dr.-ire to cross that inhospita ble country. Even then he wanted to go ashore and explore, but could not get permission. Bat he hunted seals and polar bears and took note of everything. He brought back with him a settled purpose to return to Greenland anil cross it to the western coast. Meanwhile, by the help of Professor Collett, he got the place of curator of the Bergen museum, which he held for four or five years, studying meanwhile in his favorite branches of science for his doctor’s degree. Three mouths in 1886 he spent in study ut the zoological school ut Naples. In 1887 ho began preparations for tho attempt to cross Greenland from tho cast coast on snow shoes. Ho applied to the Norwegian government for $1,600 toward tho ex pense of this trip, hut was refused. A Danish gentleman, however, sent him that much money, and he added twice *8 much of his own (it was afterward raised by subscription and refunded to him). In the spring of 1888 he took his doctor’s degree at Christiania, and on May 10 sailed with five companions from Leith, Scotland, for Iceland, in the Danish steamer Tliuyra. On July 17 they left the vessel near Capo Dan. On Sept. 27 they reached Amoralik fiord 011 tho west coast, and on Oct. J Nansen and Sverdrup reached Godthaah, one of the Danish colonies. Tliero their comrades joined them. They got a ship homo the following April and arrived in Copenhagen on May 21, 1880. It was tho first time Greenland had been cross ed. Previous attempts had been made from tho west coast, and tho baffled ex plorers had put hack. Nansen’s idea was to have safety ahead instead of behind. There was 110 turning back, because there was nothing to return to. Tho successful explorers got a warm wel come borne, and Nansen became famous and wrote a narrative of tho trip.—Har per’s Weekly. Ho I)row tho Lino. While somo of tho members of tho lo cal bar wore entertaining an attorney from North Carolina he told this among a good many other professional experi ences : “Though our mountain peoplo aro not educated, no Yankee can beat them in a dicker or go after a dollar with greater avidity. A rich young follow from our place went up among them for a time to take 011 some health, and while there paid more attention than lio really meant to 0110 of the few beauties that live there. She was a creature of magnificent proportions, naturally bril liant and as relentless of purpose as any moonshiner that ever went after u rev enue officer. She sought to recover $lO,- 000 damages for breach of promise, and I had the young man’s case. “On the trial tho girl made u star witness. When I asked licr point blank if ho had over proposed to her, she re plied that lie had notin so many words, hut his every action, look, even his tones, was a proposal. Sho admitted that she had not gone into a decline be cause of his inconstancy, but graphical ly pictured mouths of ugory, unrequited longing and wounded pride. It looked bad for us. “At this stage of tlio ease a lank six footer from tho mountains came to mo and whispered that lie wanted to ho called as my first witness. He sternly declined to answer questions till on the stand, but reckoned that his word was good that he would pull the young fel low through. “All I ever asked him was his name, and you couldn’t have stopped him with a gun. He was tho girl’s husband. Ho had married her a week after the young man left the mountains. He had con sented to her bringing the suit in her maiden name and saying nothing about her being a wife. ‘But if it’s so, ’ he roared, ‘that she’s been a mournin an a piuiu an a dyin aftoh this houh dude critteh I ask th’ cowt fuh a divo’oe. ’ “Tho girl rushed to his arms. She sobbed that she never loved another. The case was won for me, but the young man never goes to tho mountains or makes any miscellaneous bestowal of his affections.’’—Detroit Free Dress. Kuril Undid JliniM lf. ‘‘l was in Oklahoma when the first legislature passed the hanging law. The man that introduced the bill was I. N. Terrill, lie was next door to a border ruffian, but ho was a dramatic speaker, could make an impressive amount of noise, and had his measure enacted. “While the laws of the session were being codified the clerks on the work were startled by a pistol shot on the street, and, looking out tho window, saw Terrill standing with a smoking re volver over a citizen he had killed. He was the first man to bo sentenced under the new act. Had he paid tho penalty he would have been the example of a man who made a law to hang himself, but influence and new trials got him off with 12 years in tho penitentiary. “But that is not all. At the third ses sion of the legislature an attempt was made to repeal the law. Harry .St. John, chairman of tho committee on jurispru dence, opposed this movement and held the report of the committee back. On the last day the house made an impera tive demand for tho report, but St. John coolly put it into his pocket, left the building and did not return until the session had expired by limitation." “And what happened to him?” "He went to his home in Oklahoma City, and within a few days came the terrible news that he had murdered his wife. You may call it fate, justice, ac cident, what you please, but it happen ed ” —Detroit Free Press. SICK HEADACHE Positively cured by these Utile Pills.

Blunders In Books- Some of the greatest authors have frightful grammatical slips in their works, says the Chicago Daily News. In one of Thackeray’s novels we read: “Neither of the sisters were very much displeased.” Ruskin, one of the great est masters of English prose, erred this way. He wrote: “1 could have wished to have given more examples,” and, again: It means the total destruc tion which a building can suffer.” Errors in construction which are amusing are very common. Thacker ray says: “He had his topboots in his room in which he used to hunt in the holidays.” George Elliot said: “She distangled her foot from her netting and wound it tip.” Mistakes in regard to geographical locality are also frequent. Akenside wrote: “He viewed the Ganges from Alpine heights.” The Abbe du Jarri, in a poem, which was awarded a first prize by the French academy, said: “And from the freezing to the burning pole.” The compiler of a “handy informa tion” book made a curious entry in the index, which read: Patti, Adelina. Patti, Oyster. A somewhat similar happening was discovered by a lawyer, who, while looking up a reference in a book of law reports, came across this entry: “The lord chiefjustice, his great mind,” Turning to the page indicated he found; “The lord chief justice said he had a great mind to commit the pris oner for comtempt of court.” One Minute Cough Cure, cures.
