SERVICE. ��. .— Another triumph in car building has been achieved by the O. P. R. and it marks a further advance in rail- reading. The new compartment observation cars which have just been sent out from the Angus shops are intended for the service between Toronto and Montreal, and as evidence of the growing popularity of pthe service between the North Toronto station and Montreal, they are attached to the train leaving that station at 10.00 p.m, daily. These new cars have seven compact- 'menta, a drawing' room, an observe- t- tion actor and an observation lar P plat- form, The entrance to the rooms is form. from slates running along the sides of the cars, ensuring absolute privacy. There are two berths, the lower being made up from two double seats, and there are all toilet requirements in each compartment, The cars are lighted with electricity, and in the warm weather are kept cool with electric fans. These care are models of luxury and in which the O,P,,R, standard of equipment excels, The The Place Where Good Clothes Come From cooler weather necessitates warmer ' • ,{ +, Gloves.

The horse's teeth consist of the fol-$ lowing; Twelve incisgrs, or front teeth, six in each jaw; four tusks, or canine teeth, two in each jaw; twenty- four molars, twelve in each jaw, six on each side, As a rule, at birth a foal has two central incisors. If not, they will ap- pear in a day or two. From fourteen to twenty-one days the two middle teeth, viz., the two next on each side o1 the incisors develop, and in about two months after appearance they be - come level. The third teeth on out- be - side of the incisors, or corner teeth, are level with the others at about eight months. Little change takes place in the teeth for some months. At one year the cups have left the centre teeth. These cups are the hollows to the crowns of the teeth. The cups at eighteen months leave the middle 3n- doors, , and at two years the same takes place on the outside incisors, so that the crowns of the lower ineisora are flat at that age. This maks it possible to tell an early foal from a late one at the foaling period by the developing of the cups, n the corner of the teeth. In developing the colt teeth the upper and lower usual- ly appear at the same time.first The permanent teeth begin to dis- n lace the colt's teeth soon after the animal reaches two years. This dis- placement is brought about by the actual absorption of the fangs of the permanentenreIncisors, whic. It hins with willshow the slight contraction, discoloring and a separation. n After the fangs have been :'bsorbed the remains fall off and the perms- Hent teeth appear. when this Is the case the colt is rising three. At three years the two permanent central teeth are level with the two middle incisors. When the same process has beg •r: in two lower middle incisors the colt is "three off” in horse parla^.ce. When the two middle colt Teeth have dropped he is "rising four." At four the two permanent middle incisors Bra Level with tke two permanent in- cisors. The same process goes on' with the outside incisors mint the olt readies five, when the incisor teeth are level, The permanent teeth in the top jaw usually mature in ad- vance and the lower jaw is therefore the best safeguard. j;• 1 ' •----.4.,--4'- �. ° tyes �i -„,,�-, 1 r r"w 1 U.41)) THE SIT Thisof themaking lii't ., feature garment 1s ° in a Class l?y itself -nolle Others are near it.

The sav- ing affected by use pf the white coal instead of the black works out at $20 a year for every horse -power, or an aggregate Passible annual saving of $60,000,000. At present even Ontario receives 514 000 horse -power in eleetri- . P cit and so is saved from importing 7,250,000 tons of coal. The making and branching of the line is thus decribed :- Tho line has required about 500 tons q of aluminum cables,and about 7500 tone of steel have been used in some 3200 towers. It starts from the trans- formingstation at Niagara Falls, g where the voltage is increased from 12,000 volts to 110,000 volts. The initial installation was for 30,000 kilo- watts. From Niagara Falls the line extends iib a ,northwesterly direction about fifty miles to Dundee, at which point it divides. One line about forty miles long extends in an easterly direction to Toronto, while two others westerlyto London ; the northern of the latter two branches covers about 120 miles, and the southern about seventy -flue miles. From Lon- don the line proceeds westerlyto St,the p Thomas, about fourteen miles.
