BURNING WEg S.
aeshhod of Destroying Them In Use p f
Ralroads.
At this season of the year bioe is
reminded of the annual contest waged
against growing Vegetation to preserve
railway tracks in clean condition. Es
pecially is this true of the dirt-bale
lasted tracks in the westerl htates,
where the epp-anse fittailed in keeping
veetation down by grubbing with a
shovel is a formidable figure, com
pared with the expense of the same
work where tracks art ballasted with
a good quality of gravel. For many
years Western roads have resorted to
lumerous experiments for killing veg=
etation, with machinery, the most
successful of which has been the
scheme of subjecting it to scorching
heat produced by burning crude pe
troleum under a shield carried a few
inches above the track. Machines of
this description are used on the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & St. Paul; Atchi
son, Topeka & Santa Fe and Chicago
Great Western roads. In the construe.
tlon of this weed burner use is made
of an ordinary flat car, on the front
end of which (as it runs in service) is
mounted an upright thirty-horse-pow
er boiler and a pair of engines. By
means of sprocket chain connection
between the engine shaft and car axle
the car is made self-propelling. After
some experience it was found neces
sary to connect the second axle of the
truck with the first, or that driven by
the engine, by means of a sprocket
chain, in order to overcome slipping
due to the lopping of long weeds over
the rails. By this means of locomo
tion a speed of from ten to twelve
miles per hour lis easily made, as
when running for stations to meet
passing trains. The water supply for
the boiler and for extlagu:shing fires,
which may be set accidentally, is car
ried in a wooden tank in the center
of the car. On top of this tank there
are two air reservoirs, and inside of
the forward cab there are two air
pumps for creating the air pressure
necessary to spray the oil into the
burners. The burner rigging is sus
pended from a rear platform, built
upon four T-rails. The shield and
burners are hung from the outer end
of this platform upon bell cranks, and
an old reverse lever and quadrant are
used to adjust the burners to the de
sired height from the rail. The burn
ers are easily taken down when it is
desired to couple the car in with a
train. The oil tank for supplying oil
to the burners is located inside the
rear cab or just in rear of the water
tank.
Poker Defined.
Judge Finn of the First Municipal
court, New York, is one of the coolest
poker players on Manhattan island. A
case was before him the other day in
which the defendant refused to pay
a poker debt of $92. The judge asked
what poker was, and five lawyers, with
all of whom he has often played, diffi
dently opined that it was played with
cards. "Is it a game of chance?" in
quired the court. "That depends alto
gether on how good a player the other
fellow is," answered one of the law
yers mildly. After much consultation
the court gave a verdict for the plain
tif.-Newark News.

New York City.: The skirt that falls
to the instep and clears the ground by
two or three inches grows in favor
day by day. No longer model rivals
It for walking, out-door sports or
shopping. Graceful as long skirts are
in their proper place; they are a men
ace to health and a detriment to com
fort When the occasion demands free=
dom of movement. Paris has already
declared the shorter length correct,
and proves daily how ready and eager
well-dressed women fre to make the
change. Golfing cloth, cheviot, serge
LADIES' BHORT THRna PIECE BSKIRT,
and all similar materials are used.
The only requirement is that of suffi
clent thickness and weight to take
good folds and, if posible, to dispense
with lining.
The May Manton model illustrated
includes all the latest features. The
skirt is cut with a front gore, which
flares gracefully, and circular portions,
which form a deep inverted pleat at
the back. As shown, the material is
tan-colored cheviot, simply stitched
down the front two seams and round
the lower edge at the top of the fac
ing. Any quiet tone is suitable, how
evcr,and the trimming can be changed
to stitched bands or braid, if pre
ferred. As shown, the length is cor
rect for walking and golfing.
To cut this skirt for a lady of me
dium size three and one-half yards of
material forty-four inches wide, or
three yards fifty inches wide, will be
required.
Gives a Graceful E1ect.
The attractive May Manton model
shown in the large engraving is suffi
ciently snug fitting to avoid all sense
of looseness, yet is draped across the
front to give a most graceful effect.
Cashmere, which is to be much worn
during the autumn and winter, and all I
soft wool stuffs, as well as lace, foul
ards, crepe de chine and liberty silks,
are eminently appropriate. As illus
trated, the material is a foulard in pas- I
tel blue, with black, with trimming
of black velvet ribbon and yoke of
plain blue banded with velvet. 1
The foundation for the waist is a

fitted lining that closes at the centre
front. The back and underarm gores
of the material are plain and without
fulness, but the right front is cut to
form a diepery below the yoke and
hooks well into the left side, the clos
ing being concealed by the folds. The
yoke is smooth and faced into the lin
ing at the back and right front, but
hooks into place at the left shoulder
and arm's eye. The circular bertha is
cut in three overlapping sections that
give pretty fulness over the sleeves.
One or two sections of the bertha may
be omitted if a plainer effect is pre
ferred. The sleeves are two-seamed
and fit smoothly without being over
tight.
To cut this waist for a woman of
medium size five and one-half yards
of material twenty-one inches wide,
or two and three-eighths yards forty
four inches wide, will be required.
A eancy of the Time.
Small black rings figure the surface
of a cranberry crimson foulard gown
for late afternoon or evening wear.
The skirt has a front gore laid in fine
tucks and circular sides, with a border
of three tucks, which go around the
skirt. The corsage has a jabot front
of shiny black Spanish lace. Deep
points of Spanish lace are ap-liqued
in the bodice in front and in back.
The sleeve is in two parts, a close
fitting upper of crim'.on foulard, and
beneath it is an undersleeve of black
lace over crimson chiffon The neck
band is extremely plain and books in
the middle at the back.
Flowered Silk Traits.
Violets, tiny rosebuds, buttercups
and asters, lightly printed upon white
glace silk, form a remarkably pretty
trimming for a white Swiss muslin
gown. The silk is measured off and
cut into bias bands. It does not mat
ter if the stem of a rosebud or a vio
let bead is missing, clipped, away by
the bias-cut of the sharp scissors. The
bands are applied as a beading to a
founce or simply up and down in ma
chine-stitched bands. The yellow and
violet fowers are especially pretty
used this way,

the parasol is simply finished with a
hemstitched edge. Inside, soft ruch
ings of apple green silk are carefully
stitched to the lining. Unless a para.
Sol is lined it should be covered with
a silk dark enough to keep the sun's
rays from coming through. A pale.
colored sunshade often admits the

Cluny Lace Collar Band.
"Grand chic" is the verdict pro
bounced on our new neckband made
of ClUny lace. Cluny, being a rather
heavy lace, stands up well, washes
and wears equally well. If you can
find the correct width you need, and
put ribbon under !c as a transparent,
your task is then easy, as collar stif
fening and color shapes are bought
ready made. Perhaps you can get
Cuny lace especially woven with slits
for inserting ribbons. This makes a
stylish and novel collar band.
New Golf Cap For Girls.
A new piece of millinery Is the golf
cap for girls. It is made in Tam
o'Shanter shape, of black taffeta silk.
The crown is made of narrow tucks.
stitched with black silk (not white
or red). The whole flat of the Tam
may be cut of a piece of tucked taffeta.
Only black caps are made in this way.

Real Jade Buttons.
That much prized Chinese precious
stone called jade is the material from
which eight small buttons are fash
ioned to fasten a lady's gown. The
buttons are well-fastened on, you may
be sure, and they are removed and
replaced in a jewel case when the
bodice goes to be secured. They are
worn with a tea-green taffeta shirt
waist, and as they are set in gold rims
they show their beauty spaced down
the front of the bodice.
Terminate at the Waist Line.
The majority of the best corset cov
ers terminate at the waist line, and
their fronts are in surplice form. The
high-necked or half-high corset cover
is no longer used by the best-dressed
women.
The Skirt Chemise.
The skirt chemise, fitting like a
glove, is steadily growing in favor.
and promises to remain so while the
snugly-fitting hip and flared bottom
skirt, which renders them so conven
ient, is in vogue.
Autumn Dress For a Girl.
Charming and attractive as guinlpe
gowns unquestionably are, every
mother realizes the utility of the model
that can be made of one material, and
that does not inevitably involve the
dainty yoke and sleeves that must be
laundered after each day's wear. The
very pretty and stylish May Manton
design shown has the merit of allow
ing the guimpe, when desired, and of
being equally available for the long,
snug sleeves and for low-neck and tie
short puffed sleeves, as occasion may deu
require. Made of one material, as il- le
lustrated, it is suitable for daily after- du
noon wear or for a street costume L
when the days begin to grow cool; UI
with a guimpe of white, or with low to
neck and puffed sleeves it becomes in8
suitable for dancing school and party RI4
wear. The deep pointed collar, which del
is a feature, may also be varied and sht
made all of lace or nedlework, of con
trasting silk for an older child, or of so
the material trimmed. Cotton mate- an'
rials, such as dimity, Swiss, organdy t
and Madras are suitable, as well as en!
challles, cashmeres and the sample fie
Oriental silks that are much liked for
children's dressy gowns; but the model fa
is of figured challie in ciel blue, with
trimming of lace insertion joined un
der rows of narrow black velvet rib- i
bon. ns
The foundation for the waist is a foi
fitted lining, which closes at the centre am
back. The sleeves are made for their
entire length, the puffs being arranged i
over the plain portions. The skirt is
straight and full, simply gathered at
the top and joined to the waist, where to
it is finished to a band of the trim
ming. eM

SUCKED THE BOTTLE.

Artfaeial teem of Nmsing.
I owned some young elephants which
I had lent to a showman on the Bow
ery. On going to see them one day
I noticed a man holding his fnger in
the mouth of one of the smaller ones.
J placed my finger in the mouth of an
other and found that the creature
seemed to derive pleasure from the ac
tion of sucking. Immediately I sent
out for an ordinary infant's nursing
bottle. The young elephant drained
the bottle as if "to the manner born."
It was passed from one to another of
the infant class. Finally they fought t
in the most indescribably comical man
ner for possession of the bottle. Then
I fitted a large glass jar, holding a f
gallon, with rubber tubes, so that all t
could use it at the same time. In- I
variably they would empty this bottle
before loosening their hold on the nip- a
ples. They had doubtless been taken t
from their mother when too young, or r
perhaps she had been killed at the t
time when the young were captured. (
So effectively did they appeal to public v
interest and sentiment that by dint of f
skillful advertising the celebrated v
"sucking baby elephants" made quite s
a fortune in a single season. They
would be led into the ring, where they a
would take their nourishment like c
human babies, their overgrown size r
making this infantile operation very a
comical and absurd. The sight capti- c
vated the heart of every woman who t
attended the show.-Saturday Evening

F
Congress desired the experiment of t
rural free-mail delivery to be thor- ci
oughly tested and to that end author- (
ized the postoflce department to make
trials in different parts of the country.
First Assistant Postmaster General a
Heath, in his report recently made pub
lic, gives the results of these experi
mnents. He says trials have been made
in all sorts and conditions of rural life. l
The experiments have covered twenty. bl
nine States and forty-four different
routes. They have not been confined T
to communities where- conditions fa- a
vored the success of the plan to the
utmost, but mail has been carried over
the mountains of Arkansas, through bi
the heavy roads of Central Illinois, p
along the rough banks of the Missouri
river in Kansas, through the unsurvey- .g
ed and roadless farming districts of
Southwest Kentucky, over the hills and
through the snow-filled crossroads of C;
Michigan and among the scattered col- se
ored settlements of Virginia. Com- gi:
menting on these experiments, the
First Assistant Postmaster General fa
says: "According to the varying con
ditions of the country traversed, the
rural carriers perform their services on
horseback or riding in buckboards, bug- $1
gles, two-wheeled carts, or on bicycles. Pe
In some States they have to cross farms I
and pull down bars and ride over fields m
to deliver and collect their mails. In
no instance has any serious complaint
been made of this invasion of private n
rights. On the contrary, the co-opera- .
tion of the communities served has in
every instance been cheerfully and ef
fectively given. The farmers, at their no
own cost, have put up boxes at the no
crossroads and at All other convenient
places for the reception of the mails. T.
The general results obtained have been ne
so satisfactory as to suggest the feasi
bility of making rural delivery a per- ,s
manent feature of postal administra- he
tion in the United States, not immedi
ately or in all districts at once, but in of
some gradual and graduated form." Ti
After the successful experiments in this
ljne Congress should not delay longer te
the establishment of rural free delivery m
in the communities best suited for the w
immediate introduction of this system.

days she could have been sunk with (
a single shot from one of the big guns
they carry, she has a record of glory
which they have yet to earn. What
we may hope and believe is that, in our
navy of to-day there are worthy suc
cessors of Hull, Bainbridge, Stewart,
and the sailors that gave to the Con
stitution her immortal renown. Now
that this famous centenarian has pass
ed the anniversary of her launching,
we trust that she will continue to be
cared for, with the single purpose of
preserving her as long as possible to
posterity as a monument of heroic days.

A gorgeous costume flashed beneath the brilliant lights
of a ball room. The queen of society is radiant to-night.
SThe nervous hands of a weak woman have toiled day
and night, the weary form and aching head have known no
rest, for the dress mIst be finished in time.
To that queen of society and her dressmaker we would
say a word. Ono through hothouse culture, luxury and
social excitement, and tho other through the toil of necessity,
may some day find their ailments a common cause.
Nervous prostration, excitability, fainting spells, dizzi
ness, sleoeplesness, loss of appetite and strength, all indicate
serious trouble, which has been promoted by an over-taxed
system.
For the society queen and the dressmaker alike, there is
nothing so reiiablo as Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Coztprou.nd to restore strength, vigor, and happiness.
Mrs. Lizzie Anderson, 49 Union St., Salem, N. J., writes:
" DaAn Mae. Puma" :-T feel it is my duty to write and tell you how
grateful I am to you for what your' medicine has done for me. At one
time I suffered everything a woman could. I had inflammation of the
ovaries, falling of the womb, and leu.orrhtea. At times could not hold a
needle to sew. Tn first dose of your Vegetable Compound helped me so
much that I kept on using it. I have now taken six bottles and am well
and able to do my work. I also ride a wheel and feel no bad effects from
it. I am thankful to the Giver of all good for giving you the wisdom of
curing suffering women. I recommend your med
icine to every woman troubled with any of these
diseases.'
Mrs. Sarah Swoder, 103 West St.,
La Porte, Ind., writes:
"I DAu Mas. PnmxAx:-It gives me great
pleasure to tell you how much good Lydia E.
Plnkham's Vegetable Compound has done for me.
" I had been a sufferer for years with female
trouble. I could not sew but a few minutes at a
time without suffering terribly with my head.
My back and kidneys also troubled me all the
time. I was advised by a friend to take your med
icine. I thad no faith in it, but decided to try it.
After tak<ing one bottle I felt so much better that
I continmcl its use, and by the time I had taken
MI.RS.$ARAH 5WOLER six bot=:0s I was cured. There is no other medicine
for iae. I recommend it to all my friends."
