i! *'•••'•.rzWSrje.'A m. ., rJS *&* W&$W smm mmM I N i- i| MONDAY, MAY 14, 1906. ENGINES AND KEN. "Locomotive engines and1 men are very much alike In one respect, at least, for there, comes a time In the career of each when they must be relegated to the scrap pile." Thus mused J. T. Oosaett of Hous ton, a retired locomotive engineer who gave, as he sayS, the "cream" of his life to engine service. The remark of Mr. OosBett concerning men and en gines and scrap piles was prompted by the fact that a greasy, wheezy and wobbly old switch engine over In the Central yards came careening along just as he and a friend were looking over the yards and discussing railroad Work. rf 1 "See that old girl,"'said Mr. Gos sett, re ferrlng to the switch engine, ''well, she will soon be ready for the scrap pile. Not a bit of doubt about it. See how she wobbles. See how she wobbles. See how she creaks. It she were human It would be rheu matism. But in her case it is simply friction. "Engines, after all, are very much like men: No matter how hard one tries, some person will eventually be found to displace him. No matter how much work an engine does, an other eventually comes to take its place. With an engine it is only a step, and a very brief step at that, from the limited to the scrap pile. Ten or twelve years is the average life of an engine In passenger service. After that it 1B a case of pull freight trains. A season of puffing and screeching up and down grade at the head of long lines of box cars of var ious makes and styles, and then the old engine is no longer fit for that sort ... of menial duty. "Then It, is back to the scrap pile. And the same is true of the men who run the engines. In the heyday of their usefulness, they run passenger trains on the road and get a good, salary. But time wears upon them the same as it does upon the steel they drive, and after awhile they are what the bright young railroad executives of today term a bit passe. Then It Is the man to the scrap pile, as well as the engine. "In the case of man, the scrap pile may mean one thing or it may mean another. It may mean that he will be put out altogether on account of failing eyesight or some other physical defect, or, if In more liberal hands, he may be given some less responsible position—some easy job at a crossing or something like that, just to keep him going. "But it is the scrap pile for all of us some time or other. No way out of it. But in going to the scrap pile, we old-timers have one thing to con sole us. We had the experience, and we have the satisfaction of knowing that many of our ideas are being used. That doesn't actualy buy usanything, yet it makes us feel that after all we have not lived in vain. "If a man is properly fed and clothed and doesn't work more hours per day than nature intended, and it in a gen eral way he takes care of himself, he will live longer than the man who -operates under the opposite conditions. And so it is with an engine. Feed an engine good coal, dont overwork it, and it will' last longer than It other wise would last. "Gradually the railroads are putting better engines into service, just aB they are-striving to employ a higher'grade of men to operate the engines. An engine goes to the scrap pile quicker nowadays than- formerly. And when it does go. there, it is dissected and only the best parts are saved. The worn pieces go as so much junk." "Mr. Gossett is a typical locomotive engineer. For nearly a quarter of a century he was in service on the Iron Mountain and Cotton Belt railroad. He Is how out of the business, and has been for the eight years he has lived in Houston. Yet, once an en gineer, always an engineer, in heart, if not in actual practice. And that is why the old man goes over to the railroad yards every once in a while to see the wheels go round. Houston .Post. VALUE OF SUNLIT HOMES Southern Exposure Gives Three Sides the Benefit ef Direct Bays. Sunlight is nature's most health giving scavenger. A house without sunlight is unhealthy and unsafe for human occupancy and it is necessary not only to have Bome sunlight but to have as much of it as possible. It is, of course, not feasible to admit the direct rays of the sun to every room of a''house the typical plan of. all houses is square or rectangular and at least one Bide of the house is en tirely beyond the reach of the sun. The other three sides, however, can receive more or less direct sunlight and the problem of the plan is thus reduced to arranging the various rooms sp that the amount of sunlight is:adjusted to. their uses, and it must be sunlight, for mere light itself is not sufficient the rays of the sun have curative and cleansing properties that nothing else has. It is generally admitted that a south ern exposure is the beet for all houses and Bhould be obtained whenever pos sible. It is immaterial whether the entrance be placed on this side or not so long as the rooms most in use open onto the house. In dwellings of aver age size the entrance front will also be the front on which any important room opens, but in large country .houses the old distinction of a front and back to a house has disappeared and instead we have the entrance front and the garden front the service and .. .'servants' quarters, so long regarded #8 characteristic of the "back" of a house, may be relegated to the side end or placed In a wing that abuts directly on the entrance front In such cases it must be well screened •'A and its purpose thoroughly subordin ated. When Ton Write Abroad. In writing to France or Italy, a post it.. master pointed out the other day, the -V address should be printed, for the ~.l -printed characters of French, Italian and English are alike, but of the writ ten ones this is not true. The capital T, for Instance, is writ listen In France and Italy like C. The top stroke is made as with us. but the downward' stroke curves to the right instead of to the left Our 0 Is taken for aT abroad. Our is taken for 1 or It is Important, therefore, to print Instead of to write proper names on foreign letters.- A letter addressed in writing, to, for instance, a man named fo?shsStf(fie Treat, would be thought by toe French and Italian to be addressed to Ireat, and in the general delivery depart ment of the postofflce it would be placed In the I Instead of In the compartment. Thus, when Mr. Treat called forms mall, a search of com partment .T:would reveal nothing for him, and hip letter, hidden among the '0-' I's, would never be delivered. -J 4«*l, Office If yoii want to buy or sell If yon warit help or want employment If yon want to sell your house If you want anything HOLP .VANTBD—HAUL WANTED—A PRINTER »1®.00 PER week no booze-flghter.
