OXE irCTTDUED TEARS OF RAILROADS Popular Mechanics Magazine: This year marks the centennial of the steam locomoUve. From a curious, crude meohaniam drawing a few tons of coal at a rate of five miles an hour, the steam locomotive has pushed Its way Into every continent, and today trains de luxe are flying over superb tracks, across wonderful bridge and through mountains, in lands which were unknown or uncivilised 100 years aro. The locomotive haa made possible our great cities and seaports; it haa created states out of vast vacant territories.

During1 a discussion of general topics in primary school the teacher asked the question: "What is a veterinary surgeon?" "One who doctors old soldiers," was the ready reply of a boy of five years. A boy who had been absent from school for several days returned with his throat carefully swathed, and presented this note to his teacher: "Please don't let my son learn any German today; his throat is so sore he can hardly speak English."

MEN nAVE TWO SOULS The Strand: It is an article of "belief among the people of West Africa that every man has two souls, one of which always animates his human body, while the other, by means of a magls draught, the secret of which has been handed down for untold ages, can leave the form in which it usually dwells, and float Invisibly into the depths of the forest, where it takes on its were-shape.

The calabar river is supposed to be the home of many such elephant and crocodile souls "EfumI," as they are called. Near the bank where the mam traffic crosses the river lies a great oval-shaped stone, half imbedded in the ground. Behind it a Ju-ju tree 'has been planted, and in front a heap of leaves may be seen. This stone Is one of the altars of Nimm. thb great nature goddess of the Ekol people and the chief ohject of devotion to the women of this region.

To Insure her protection leavi must be plucked, rubbed on the forehead, and then thrown upon the heap with the prayer: "I am coming across the river; may crocodile lay down his head." A TTP FOR CAMPERS Outing: Here's a little tip for campers who want to Include a frying pan in their camp outfit and yet don't want to trust to the usual expedient of balancing it insecurely on the embers or on unsteady stones. Take two pieces of one-inch pipe about three feet long for horlsontal supports. These are supported by steel rods driven into the ground and having a right angle bend of about two and a half Inches at the top, which enters the ends of the pipes. The pipes should be held about six inches above the ground and about four inches apart. The supports can be of strap iron 1 inch by one, making sure, of course, that they possess the requisite stlffnees.

In case they are to be used in sandy soil it is well to twist them at the bottom to give them a better grip in the ground. It is possible to cook as many as four different articles at the same time with on fire properly built. The weight of the whole outfit should not exceed twelve to fifteen pounds, and the problem of packing in a canoe or on a horse is a simple one. INVENTION FOR THE DEAF H. J.

GREEN DRAGON INN The corporation of the city of London haa acquired the Green- Dragon Inn in Fleet street, also the Cock tavern, both of which promises were needed for the widening of that street, which now is to be completed after spasmodic work for the last twelve years. The Green Dragon was a famous tavern in its day, and once was denounced by Louis Napoleon as that headquarters of anarchy at the time when he was compelled to lead a pre carious existence In London. The Cock is not the building of the Cock of Tennyson's poem, for that was demolished when the law courts were biult, but It contains the old chtm-neyplece and benches and the Grlnllng Gibbons sign of the original tavern, and is still the favorite chophouse for lawyers.

ANNUAL BUSINESS MEETING The Central Association Thurs Sept. 25, 7:30 p. txu, 816 College Ave. All Members Come -r 3. iviatcn Pleasure-Loving Girls Agnes Repplier In the Atlantic: Miss Jane Addams, In her careful study of the Chicago streets, speaks of the "pleasure-loving girl who demands that each evening shall bring-her some measure of recreation." Miss Addams admits that such a girl is beset by nightly dangers, but does not appear to think her attitude an unnatural or unreasonable one.

A very capable and intelligent woman who has worked hard for the establishment of decently conducted dance halls in New York and elsewhere dance halls sorely needed to supplant the vicious places of entertainment where drink and degradation walk hand in hand was asked at a meeting last winter whether the girls for whose welfare she was pleading never stayed at home. "Never," was the firm reply. "And you will pardon me for saying, neither do you." The retort provoked laughter because the young married woman who had put the question probably never did spend a night at home unless she' was entertaining. She represented a social extreme a combination of health, wealth, beauty, charm and high spirits. But.

there were scores of girls and women In the audience who spent many nights at home. There are hundreds of girls and women In what are called fashionable circles who spend many nights at home. There are thousands of girls and women in more modest circumstances who spend many nights at home. If this were not the case, our big cities would soon present a spectacle of demoralisation. They would be chaotic on the surface and rotten at the core.

FISHING VS. WEATHETt Outing: Successful trout fishing under adverse weather conditions is not an Impossibility; it's simply a matter of proper methods and working hard. In this connection it may be said that the sportsman who is master of both the wet and the dry fly Is better insured against occasional failure than the man who from choice or otherwise is prepared to use only one of these methods. Probably the whole matter hinges upon whether or not the trout are feeding, and if feeding, upon what and to what extent; it Is difficult to believe that atmospheric conditions, possibly disagreeable to the angler, have any great Influence upon a trout which feels in the mood for a hearty meal.
