Work will now be resumed in a abort time. One of the change! niado nt tlio fac tory which U considered important s the substitution of three amnll electric motors for one largo one, to run the machinery. This change was made at tho suggestion of Superintendent Smith of tho Keeno (Jus and Electric company. Heretofore tho company'! machinery has all been carried by a singlo motor of somo 20-horse jover nnd a good deal of shafting 1M been used to dis tribute the power. This largo motor was running much of tho time with a very light load. It is expensive to run motors in this way. To give a good rato of elliciency a motor should be run at nearly its rated capacity. To ovcrcomo this difficulty the com pany has installed throe ejiaruto mo tors, ono of 5-liorse power to operate the elevator in tho building, so ar ranged that it only runs when the ele vator is in use, und two of 3-horse power each to carry its lines of Bewing machines. Tho Bowing machine motors are of a nrw type, so fur as tho arrnngo meat of their driving pulleys is con cerned, each motor being arranged to carrv four belts. These belts run di rect to tho small lines of shnfting under tho sewing machine benches, on which tho clutches and treadles for starting and stopping the machines nre installed. One motor carries 51 sewing machines nnd the other S2. A saving of nearly 50 per cent in power is calculated to re sult from this chango nnd tho accom panying change in the manner of oper ating tlio electric lights. Another alterntiou mado consists in moving the stock and shipping depart ments of the fnctory to the room in the south side of tho building, on the second floor. 1'lenty of space is afforded here for the rncks in which manufactured goods and mifterialf nro stored, and tho work is so planned that it moves from the cutting room on the east side of the floor above, down through tho machine room and then directly to the shipping room below. A largo amount of space on the north side of the third floor room used for manufacturing is cleared up by removing tho stock and shipping therefrom and a good many more oper ators can bo employed as the business increases. When running to its usual capacity the actory now employs over 100 ma chine girls, besides its cutters and other operatives. President D'Arcy is woll pleased with the economics nnd largely increased production thnt the company has Bccurcd since locating in Kcenc, and plans a larger business with new lines of goods added, the com ing season.

It was the great est collection of such material ever assembled In this country. There were specimens of lungs showing how they are affected by consumption, and spec imens of various parts of the human body susceptible to tuberculosis at tacks: the consumption germ which causes the disease was displayed In Its various stages and strength: what was done In former years and what Is being done today to counteract the disease were demonstrated by pictures, charts and models, and how successful the various means have been was also fullv dem onstrated.

If the congressional resolution bearing upon the abuse of the franking privilege be seriously treated, another "lid" may be lifted for the edification of civilisation. The franking privilege is somewhat fiercely des cribed by the Washington Post as "an ancient and notorious graft,' which may be an immoderate view of it. Still, some pictur esque stories go the rounds. One congress man is quoted as saying that he had heard of members who had - shipped clothing , and household furniture under their frank. The co-operation of the postotfice department would be necessary in any investigation of these abuses, and perhaps the department would not wish to tell on a co-ordinate branch of the government. The Practical Poultryman. The practical poultryman of today studies the Poultry Food problem with as great care as the practical farmer does the Question of fertl Izers. He has found that it is profitable to do so. He bends all his energies toward In ducing his hens to do their best work when eggs are highest. That George r. Tanner or Springfield.
