The Brussels Post, 1904-2-25, Page 7MANY TRAINS GREAT MEN WHO OWN LITT1•E RAILWAYS. Duke of Westminster Owns the Pinest Miniature Railway in En ].and. • ..g Thcro aro about one hundred model miniature railways is Groat Britain the finest and:. beat -equipped among them all being that owned by the Duke of d1'ecltn)inster, at Eaton Yell. The truck is four and a ball utiles long, -f8 splendidly ballasted, and le attended to constantly by a couple of expert platelayers. Tho gauge is fifteen inches, and WO sura expended in construction, exclusive of buildings, Wee exactly 85,545 per mile, Tho one engine (built by Mr, llegwood, of Duffield, who also owns ,a minhtture railway) cost $2,000, Its average armed ie about fifteen miles an hour, though n ,it has clone P twenty -ono upon Y OCenairn. There i6 onosena er pu g coach, thirty-four goods waggons, be - Bides brake van, toot van, and par- cels van, all of which are, of course, bttilt to scale, and elaborately fin- ished, Next in order to the above, in point of costliness god completeness, comes the Pitntanton Moor 0reon Model Railway, owned by,Sir John Holder. Its length Is comparatively insignifico,nt, but its equipment of rolling-stoetcprobably- surpasses that of any miniature railway in the world. For instance, it has no few- er than three locomotives, varying in ,Y length from 7 ft. 5 in, to. 9 ft, over all, end with driving wheels measur- ing between 0 in. In diameter (four coupled) • anti 16 in, (singlo). The hirgaat of these engines once travel- led over four miles with a, six -pas- senger load at express speed WIPIIOUT A SINGLE STOP. Very remarkable is the min iaLure railway at Croydon, constructed and owned by Dr. Gerald D'Ovenden, ,the well-known -specialist, and his bro- ther, Mr. Arthur LIovenden, In its entirety it constitutes an absolutely correct modelto settle of tbo sub- urban portion of the London, Brigh- ` ton, and. South -Coast Railway, and embraces the, whole of this section of the system between the two termini a' of London Bridge and Victoria at the ono end, and Cro+won at the other. Although only 22 ft. long by between two and three feet broad, all the fr principal lines are shelve , together. { with the junctions, signals, points, and crossings, as they exist in the real railway. Even the stations aro decorated with lnaniature reproduc— tions of well-known advertisements; whlie the engines drawing tho trains aro so Constructed as to take precise- ly twenty seconds to traverse the system, as against the twenty min- utes - average schedule time -of the FULL-SIZED LOCOMOTIVES. Lieut. -Col, J. Robert Harvey, again, who was Mayor of Norwich in le03, owns 'a miniature railway and passenger express train, the latter' so perfectly duplicated from a real one that it .even has attachedto it a travelling post -office van, fitted with collecting nota and delivery .apparel, tus. The weight of this one car, it may bo mentioned, is over 20 lb., so that the size and solidity ot the en- tire train withits is en ne and ten- der attached may be imagined. tI"Tho most westerly railway in the United Kingdom" is the title applied by its designer and builder, Colonel 'W. Hamilton, to tIrc miniature line he has constructed in tho grounds of his residence, Glentios, Co., Donegal, Ire- land. Tho houso is situated on a headland, almost an isllmd, which juts outinto tho Atlantic ocean. n. • It 18 a complete andbeautifully equip- ped model railway, with roiling -stock Water tanks, turntables, carriage works,' cool stages, tunnels and sid- ings, and is entirely the work of its proprietor's own hands. Mr. Walter Alcock, the well-known musician and assistant organist et Westminster Abbey, is very proud of having built 'off his own bat" a com- plete working model of the Midland eiglne, which, although only weigh-. eg about :60 lbs., has drawn a man WEIGHING 224 LBS. All the work incidental to its con- struction was done during his spare sours, and at the tint(' he was study ing for and sitting for his Mus. Bac. degree. Also, he had no prior engin- meting experience; except what he had gained as a boy, when ho built on engine with a cocoa -tin boilerand his mother's best pair .of scissors as pritloipal tool. To Dr. J. Bradbury Winter, of Brighton, belongs the credit of hav- ing constructed the most pealed; as it corthinly is the moat wonderful, model locomotive in Et -island. It is an exact duplicate, ((own to tho minutest detail, of the London, Brigh- ton,"and South -Coast Railway's en- gine "Couto," on a scalp of oho huclt to oho feet, and it occupied id11rtecn yearn in the bullding. Every part, ' down to the lest nut and riy'et,. Wee made by Dr. Winter himself, and was, wherever poesiblo, chissclled but of the 801111 metal instead of being cast. Icor example, the wheelie Were fh'et cut as discs d from omaas8 cif ilea ewer m a steel, Then the spoken were married out, ]soles Were drilled round the lines and the spaces were chiselled out and finished with the tile. This me- Abed necessitated the drilling earners) titan seven hundred holes in each wheel, and the time occupied in cora ploting the six wheels Wee over a year. Even the 8tec1 covering for the ilii -box was cut out of a solid bleelc of metal, although it is barely 1-96 of an inch In thicknees.- Peers0n's Weekly. ria • WATT/IRS' RECORD TIP, In 1"t'ankfot•t there 14 a restaurant the waiters of which have recently re- ceived what roars thou toneitlerod to he the largest "tip" on record, Ainoug 'their Gusto/Hors for many years Was a gentleman of Melopondant !Weans, Who died last year in Egypt anti left by 19111' 15,000 Intu'ks ($8, 750) totSIQ fortunate Weild1a Itt Otmetion„ TOO' LITTLE BLOOD, Xs the Oause. et 1Itost 01 the Misery in Everyday Life• -improve the Blood. and.

Discharged From Two Toronto Hospitals-Dodd's )':idney 7/110 Brought Back Her Health. Toronto, Fob, 8. -(Special) The report drum Collingwood of the won- derful cure of Mrs. Themes Adams al Bright's Dva so byDodd'a Kidney Pills has aroused great interest here and the dtscussfon of it bus brought out tho fact that AL's. Adams' case 15 not an 'saluted ono, that right in Toronto there are people who, suffer- ing from the most dreaded and fatal of kidney Diseases, have found a positive and permanent euro in Dodd's Kidney Pills: One of the most striking cases that has been brought to• light is that. of Mrs. Fred. Philip, now residing 09 Broadway ave., Eglingtoil ,0110 of the northern suburbs of the city. That Mrs, Philip tva5 suffering from Dright's Disease and was in a most. dangerous state, there is not the shadow of a doubt. Silo was in two city hospitals,. Grace and the Goner. al, and left both places without a hope for the future, IN THE IIOSPITAI.S. In Grace hospital the doctors wished to operate on her, but she objected, and leaving the hospital called in, another doctor. He told her at once that she had Bright's Disease and diad her removed to the General hospital. The doctors here demurred to an operation on ac- count of the clangor. On being discherged a second time without benefit Airs, Philip stopped the doctors and started to tape Dodd's Kidney -Pills. The result is that to -day all the terrible swelling is 5000, eke rs able to do all her own work as well as look after her bright little four-year-old child. In an interview Airs. Philip spoke freely of her terrible trouble arid gave unstinted praise to Dodd's Kidney Pills. MRS. PHILIP'S STORY. "I was sick for six months," sho said, "before tatting Dodd's Kidney Pills. During that time I was six weeks, in Grace hospital and two months in the Ccncral hospital. I was told in both places that nothing more could be dono for me. I started taking Dodd's Kidney Pills in April and am still using them, They have dono nee a world of good. Tho Dropsy has ell left me and I am now doing all my own work just tho same as I was beforo I was sick." The talk these cases has caused has also served to show how general the use 'of Dodd's Kidney Pills has be- come and liow numerous are tho cures effected of Pain in the Back, Rheuma- tism, tism Dropsy, and tho other re- sults -sults of diseased Kidneys. In fact, cures by Dodd's Kidney Pills can be found by the hundred, but a case in which they have failed to euro has yet to bo reported.

SPEED 0.P A BIRD'S FLIGHT, Some timing experiments conducted by Mr, Alfred Walker would seem to 1nd'ecite that appearances are exceed- ingly deceptive so fur as the speed of a bird's flight is concerned, Swal- lows, Mr. Walker tells us, in their lightning -like evolutions, only 9y fif- teen to twenty-five miles an hour, which is much slower that the or- dinary flight of a rook. Starlings when going to their roosting -place at- tain a speed of forty-five miles an hour, which is equal to that of the best horning pigeons; but they fly during the day at a slower rate. A wild duck was found to attain a speed of thirty-six miles an hour in a short flight. Homing pigeons baso been recorded' to fly at a rate of thirty-three miles an hour on a twelve-hour journey, thirty-six utiles an hour on a four-hour journey, for- ty miles on a one-hour journey, for- ty-eight on a ton minutes' journey, and fifty-two on a one -minute jour- ney. „AI 4Ate/ 4 471, lacic•e t viaecod is L -tet•«.,`^ti LOWER PRICES iP ,ii c'"" f% Tr s d rl ,1 :rico t �.. `qp:�1 r...
