be cropped ten years longer without
running out.
They are cheaper now than they

FOR EMERGENT OCCASIONS.
Hold a piece of lee to a burned Linger
until the smarting .eases, and no blister
will form on the skin.
Bicarbonate of soda (ordinary baking so-
da) is a safe and effectual remedy for burns
or scalds. Make into a paste and apply to
the raw surface, keeping in place by a thin
cotton or linen bands. Renew from time to
time until the skm is healed.
The white of an egg is good for slight
burns. Never use flour or eoton batting,
as their tendency is to stick to the raw sur-
face.
One of the most soothing applications for
a fire burn is raw potato, scraped or grat-
ed, and bound like a poultice on the injured
surface.
Lime water mixed with linseed or table
oil makes a good dressing on absorbent cot-
ton, or use a carbolic solution, using two
carts of hot (as can be borne) boiled water
to one part of carbolic solution.
Baking soda is good for an aching tooth;
for bathing surface which is broken out
with hives or prickly heat; to take intern-
ally for sour stomach.
When children swallow hurtful things, if
it causes choking and smyptoms of suffo-
cation, either turn the child upside down
and strike quickly between theshoulders or
run the finger back into the throat to hook
it •out, or last of all, push it down.
When things with sharp edges, like bits
of glass, are swallowed, feed on potatoes in
every form for two or three days until the
fragments appear. Use with this diet fre-
quent injections in the bowels.
With hurtful liquids, use an emetic; a
teaspoonful of mustard mixed with one-half
cupful of warm water, swallowed at once.
Then cup after cupful of lukewarm water
must be given, pressing the fanged down the
throat to encourage vomiting; if it does not
come in fifteen minutes, repeat, After vom-
iting is induced, give castor oil.

Foolish Faiths of People.
The hopelessness of weaning men and
'women from foolish and fanatical beliefs,
no matter what examples may be pre-
sented to them, is illustrated afresh by
the announcement t ata during the pres-
ent week twenty-five men and women
swill sail. from a port in Maine to estab-
lish a. new religion in the Holy Land,
Their boat is an old brigantine, their
faith belief in a "prophet" named San. -
ford, while their religion is known as
the "Religion of the Holy Ghost," or, as
;the vulgar term them, "Holy Glvosters."
'Tot only their faith, but thiir wealth,
and their domestic happiness, are in the
hands of this pretended prophet, who is
equipping two other boats to carry, his
creel -brained followers to Palestine.-

AGES OF TROLLEY CARS.
They Require More and More Care as
They Grow Older,
The average passenger:In a trolley car
probably has an idea that. n car simply need
be purehsed and put an the rails, evhero-
upon It can, like the brook, go on forever.
But trolley ears develop all sorts of unex
;meted illness, they have to be taken to the
elector's or, more rrosalealty, the repair shops,
at frequent .intervals, and their lives con-
sidered upon the point of view of thehuman
three scorn and ten, are very short Indeed.
Under the most favorable circumstances a
trolley car is not expected to last much longer
than twelve years.And, unlike babies, re-
marked the car manager of a big traction
company, trolley ears require more and more
caro as they grew older,
In addition to regular care connected with
window -washing and sweeping, the trolley
car must be inspected every few days—ou
most roads twice a week—to see that the ap-
paratus is all in good order.
This is supplemented by an occasional thor-
ough overhauling. The superintendent of the
largest of the New Jersey trolley companies
says that in his lines a new car may `run
10,500 miles before it has to bo overhauled,
or, 'In other words may run about one hun-,
dred days. Cars operated entirely In crowded
cities have a sborter term of activity, about
sixty clays, before they go under the doctor's
hands. As a ear gets older It bas to be over-
hauled with greeter frequency.
On the occasion of these overhaulings the
trucks are removed from the car bodies,
the motors taken out and examined, the
armatures cleaned and the whole machinery
thoroughly tested. In addition to this the
car body must be painted and varnished and
thoroughly renovated at least once a year.
After the overhauling a car is ready for
the road again, but any time It is likely to
develop that most troublesome ailment, a
flat wheel. A flat wheel is the terror of the
operating department of a trolley line. Jt
may be compared to appendicitis, because it
comes when least expected, but while a hu-
man being has but one appendix, a car may
"go lame" with a fiat wheel over and over
again, and pound over the road, punching
holes in the rails and wearing out the equip-
ment at an astonishingly expensive rate.—

BEATS THE LAMB MARY HAD.
It Will Chew Tobacco, Waltz to Any
Whistled .Air and Otten Runs to Fires.
A lamb that will chew tobacco, waltz
to any whistled waltz air that is not
too dreamy, chase cats and does and is
the Judas who betrays his kind to the
knife of the executioner, is a pet at the
Poughkeepsie branch of Armour & Co's.
big Chicago packing house. The lamb
has been named Dick Armour. The
branch employees are now somewhat
perturbed over a rumor that Dick will
have to go the way of most lambs be-
fore they become mutton. If necessary
to save it from this fate it will be pur-
chased in the regular way and provided
with a private pen, with tobacco and
waltz music ad libitum.
Dick is a regular figure on the city
strets seated beside one of the Armour
company's drivers on •the wagons that
haul the carcasses of the less fortunate
brethren around to meat markets and
coolers. It has the run of the Armour
plant and sleeps in the barn with the
horses, going right into the stalls and
sleeping beside the head of one or an-
other, as the fancy seizes it. It often
passes a day with Cashier William J,
Davis or Manager Charles Wright and
is also friendly with the clerks in the
shipping department. When disappoint-
ed it expreses its chagris by butting
everybody in sight.
The firemen know Dick, for the lamb
often runs to fires. In its trips around
town when it enoounbers a dog too big
for it to handle it will drop in between
a team of Armour Company's horses,
where it will trot along in safety. The
hores will draw apart to give Dick
plenty of room. Dick's favorite com-
panions are the Armour horses and six
or eight eats around the big cooler in
this city. The only eat it dislikes is
Icehouse Jimmy, so named becouse it
lives in the refrigerator, where the air
is kept three degrees above freezing, and
cannot exist .outside. A few minutes in
the outer air cause it to drop in con-
vulsions. Dick saw Icehouse Jimmy in
one of these convulsions, and ever since
has kept shy of the eat.
Dick meets 'incoming flocks of sheep

Makes Many Friends.
The fashion now prevalent of wearing
bodies fastened up the back makes
strange • friends, says the Baltimore
News.
Yesterday ayoung woman got on a
car, •sat dolvn and made herself com-
fortable, and was immediately seized
with the conviction that ]ler waist was
unfastened. She has had these convic-
tions before, and they are always wrong,
but this, time when she put her hand
back surreptitiously, sure enough, not
one of the little buttons was in the but-
tonhole appointed for it.
The girl knew that if she attempted
to fasten it herself her contortions
would be such as to attract the atten-
tion of everyone in the car.
'She thought the situation over care-
fully. There were five men in the vehi-
ele and only one woman. The woman
was in the very front seat.
After some consideration, the girl de-
termined that the thing to do was to go
up to the 'member of her own sex and
beg her indulgence and assistance. She
did so, and when slae stated her er-
rand was received with a lovely smile.
"You see how I am backed up against
the wall, whispered the stranger; `well,
that is to conceal the fact that my
waist is unfastened also. I was just
wondering what I should do. Let us go
to the backseat and help each other,"
which they did to the immense delight
of the men, who, while apparently
reading their papers. were really 're-
garding these maneuvres with interest.

COMPROMISE IN MARRIED LIFE.
"If marriage meant the wedding of a
saint and an angel ;there ,would be no
problems to solve, no perfection to'at-
tain, no progress' to make: This may
be why there are no Marriages in heaved.
On earth, it is different; rusband and
wife are strongly human. No matter
how 1pvaugly united or how sweet their
accord, they never have the sante tentsperaments, tendencies or Pastes. Their
needs are different, their manner of look-
ing at things is not identical, and
varying ways their indiy!dualities assert
themselves. At any' critical indment if
both express at the same time, a desire
to defer to the other's taste, the result
is foreordained for happiness. This
makes matrimony not merely union, but
unison and unity. The spirit of compro-
mise does not mean a continuous per-
formance in the way of self -surrender
and self-sacrifice; it does not mean ceas-
ing to be a voice and becoming an echo;
it does not imply or justify the loss of
individuality; it means simply the in-
stinctive recognition of the best way out
of a difficulty, the quickest tackling to
avoid a collision, the kindly view of tol-
erance in the presence of weakness and
errors of another, theacourage to meet
an explanation half -way, the generosity
to be first to apologize for a. discord, the
largeness of inind that does not fear a
sacrifice of dignity in surrendering in
the interests of the highest harmony of
the two rattier than the personal vanity
of one.—From the September Delineator.

Ys Painter's Colic a Myth?
1903 the French Senate appointed
mittee of scientific men to investi-
he effects of white lead upon the
of journeymen painters. The corn -
leas just reported that it has made
ful investigation of the subject in
six of the eighty-eight depart -
into which France is diveded, ex-
its inquiries even into Algeria.
ng to this report, out of 194 jour -
painters who were in the hos-
f France in 1904 only twenty -
ere sick from diseases originat-
ing from their trade. "If this number
were double," says the report, "we are
still very far from the ravages which
have been attributed to the use of white
lead." The committee has not been able
to diseorer any evidence of the exces-
sive mortality which was reported to
prevail in this business. The death rate'
among house painters is very low, aver-
aging only one in every 7,000 or 8,000
