SEASONING TELEPIiONE POLES.
The Government and the Companies Are

The sesseitY of timber s hash of forlattele-

as-
sumed serious proportions, says the Amort-
can :Telephone Journal.
Latest reports of the sin 19 f8iece sshow
that there wore in operation
mately 100,000 miles of pole . Subsequent
ubs a Cult
additions, however,
railroad pole lines not repotted, would en-
large this figure.
It is sate to assume that there are In oper-
ation at present fully 500,000 miles of lice.
ahmile,e oge line thet theretare approximatelyns S�
000,000 poles in use.
Assuming that the average life of a pole
is twelve years, it follows that for the main-
tenance of the lines now in operation there
are needed each year more than 3,e50,000
Poles, Such an enormous demand must soon
deplete the available supply. This is fully
recognized by the different companies.
The American TelePJI00'eion w and
the TeleUngraph
Company, in co -open
States Forestry Bureau, has been oarryine
on elaborate experiments to determine the
best means of prolonging the life of poles.
These experiments show that seasoned tim-
ber in oontaot with the ground will Outlast
unseasoned, and that dry wood is more re-
ceptive for preservative fluids than green
wood.
Experiment stations were establtshe:i at

Hour Glass for Pulpits.
The twenty minute sermon is a purely
modern. invention, as is proved by the
number of pulpit hour glasses that are
still to be found in many old churches.
In the register of St. Catharine's, Ald-
gate, the following entry, dated 1564, oc-
curs: "Paid for an hour glass that, hang-
ed. by the pulpit, where the preacher
dotla4sak• a seemon, that he may know
haw ties hcitriaaseth away, one shil-
ling."
A modern pulpit glass probably the
only one of its kind—is to be found in
the Chapel Royal, Saxony. It is an '18
minute glass; sure was placed in the' chap-
el on its restoration in 1S67. ---Flom the

When a widow or widower announces
his or her intention of forming new ties
it is often the cause of bitter resentment
Junior Coiffure.
For very young girls there is nothing
prettier than the hair parted in the
front and brought back over the ears
to the nape of the neck, where it is
braided, looped and tied with a broad
ribbon. Fair hair always looks well so
dressed, but dark hair 1vi11 be equally
pretty and girlish -looking if the front
portion is tied on top of the head in a
pompadour effect, then braided and
looped and fastened with a ribbon, tht
other half of the hair to be braided in
the nape of the neck and arranged as
above. This looks neater than the wavy
fluffiness at the sides of the face—so
picturesque -looking when the hair is fair

Famous Landmark to Disappear.
On en early date the noted East
Lothian landmark known as Knoek in -
Hair is to be pulled down. It 'was a
on the part of the relatives of the one
who has .died.
They a -e angry, aggrieved at the idea
of anyone- filling their loved one's place,
and while one can sympathize with them
in their .affliction, yet it is not a right
course to pursue, and can only bring•
sorrow and enmity in -its train.
Will not the dear dead one desire the
true happiness of`the husband who has
been left comfortless and alone, after
having enjoyed the love and sympathy
of happy married life?
Of course, he will mourn his loss, but
time is the great consoler, and by and
by. when the first bitterness of the blow
has been assuaged, he will turn his
thot:ghts in the direction of new ties,
and a home once more presided over by
a wife.
It his first marriage has been a success
then the second is a compliment to his
late 'wife's memory; if it was unhappily
a failure, then can he be blamed for
seeking a more congenial mate? It is the
relatives who work the most of the mis-
chief in these cases; they poison the
minds of the children and so create an
atmosphere of dislike and resentment
ere ever the stepmother has entered upon
her new duties.
And one thing, girls; some of you who
read the. Welcome may even now be pre-
paring to 'wed with someone who has
previously "loved and lost." Try and
beas in mind that it is petty and ignoble
to be jealous• ofthe (lead; do not reser�t
her name being mentioned to the little
ones she has left behind. Bear in mind
that her . loss was your gain, and a
charge of gravest importance has been
placed in your keeping when a widower
entfitsts the eare of his house and family
into your hands.
Never mind interfering gossips or mal-
icious tale -bearing. Try and win the
children's love; be.. tactful with them,
firth to punish where necessary; yet err-
ing on the side of tolerance and love.
People will criticize your conduct, but
if you seat nil an ideal standard an& try
to live up to it you have done the best
in your power, and will have no regret
whatever the issue.—Weekly Welcome.

TO TRY IT ON THE DOG.
Butcher Didn't Like Inference in Being
Asked for Meat for Canine.
Until recently a grocer+yman in the
neighborhood of . Thirty-second and
Chestnut streets has been in the habit of
filling his customers' meat orders from
a neighboring butcher shop. Lately he
sub -let a portion of his store to a friend
who is a butcher, and together they have
filled the orders of Mr. B's. customers
without assistance from the butchery
aeross the way, the proprietor of which
seems to have been somewhat piqued.
A few days ago a customer sent her
servant for 10 cents' worth of meat for
the dog. A piece similar to the sort the
lady was in the habit of purchasing was
not in the shop, and Mr. Groner stepped
briskly across the street end asked for
10 cents' worth of dog meat.
The answer flashed back: "We don't
keep dog meat."
Mr. Grocer (mildly) I'll take ten
cents' worth of meat for the dog"

Dresden "Pedestrian Catcher."
Four years ego, says the Electrical
Engineer, the Oily Council of Dresden
offered prizes for the most effective form
of "pedestrian catcher," a device to pre-
vent accidents from swiftly moving
tramcars in crowded streets. Over 400
specimens have been tested, and one of
them, invented by a Dresden merchant,
has received the first prize. It is easily
attached to cars, does not get out of
order, and picks up and carries along
life-size leather mannikins, living dogs,
and even bottles filled with liquid.
Remaining the Glaciers.
The heavy snowfan and storms in
the Alpine region during last winter and
late into the spring of the present year'
forcibly illustrate the proverb of its
being an ill wind that blows no good.
For the past half century there has
been observed a steady diminution in
the area of Swiss glaciers, and jere-
miads not a few have appeared in print
as to the dark prospect should tourists
once turn their faces in other directions.
The rigors of 1900-7 have changed all
this. According to all the authorities
they have left a deposit which will go
far to rehabilitate the prestige of the
glaciers.

01d Dr. Ryland, clergyman and, edu-

and his visits were always enjoyed by his
former pupils and parishioners. In his
later years it was his custom to offer
prayer whenever he made a ministerial
call. On one occasion he called art ,a
house where three of his former pupils
were staying. These ladies were all past
the thirtieth year mark, but in the eyes
of the old gentleman they were still girls
—which explained the petition he offer-
ed:
"Lord, bless these clear girls, just bud-
ding into sweet womanhood."
