If you should write a letter to the man who is chief magistrate of this republic you are at liberty to address him as "The President, Washington. D. C." That will be sufficient He is not "his excellency," as Is the supreme executive magistrate of Massachusetts, nor "his high mightiness." a title which, they say. sounded pleasing to the ear of the Father of His Country. But if you should write a letter to the secretary of state of the United States, whom the plaiu "president" appointed to the job, prepare to dip your pen in honorific ink. While the chief magistrate is plain "president," without any tJtiftar epaulets, his secre tary of state is "the honorable secre tary of state." It will not do to ad dress him as "the secretary of state" simply. He is something more than that. The etiquette of the state de partment requires that the word "hon orable" be prelixed to the word "sec retary."—Boston Globe. Fire Prevention Among Pines. Pines protect themselves against Sor est iires in a remarkable manner. For four or five years the stems of the infant trees attain a height of or.ly as many inches above the soil. Dur ing this time their bark is extraordi narily thick, and that alone gives some protection. But, in addition, the long needles spring up above the stem and then bend on all sides in a green cas cade which falls to the ground in a circle about the seedling. This green barrier can with difficulty be made to burn, while the shade that it casts prevents inflammable grass from grow ing near the protected stem. The offi cers of the forestry service at Wash ington are of opinion that it is owing to this peculiar system of self protec tion whi h the pine seedlings have de veloped that the growth of evergreen oaks in Florida has been restricted in regions where tires have raged, while pine forests have taken their place.— Harper's Weekly. When Wives Were Sold. When the war between Britain and France ended in IMIS many of the Eng lish soldiers found that their wives hail married again in the belief that they were widows. The formal sell ing of the wife was regarded among the ignorant as a legal solution to the problem thus presented, and it is said that the authorities of the day deemed it best to shut their eyes at the pro ceeding. A certain amount of formal ity had to be observed, however, be fore the sale was considered legal even by the most Ignorant. A Yorkshire writer mentions two cotrditions which must be carried out to make a satis factory saie— the price of the wife must not be less than 1 shilling (24 cents), and she must be delivered to her purchaser with a new halter around her neck. The same writer records the case of the woman who zealously pre served the receipts for herself as a proof of respectability. Humor and Morality. We have extirpated gross humor from our modern literature, but we must not suppose that we are there fore more moral than the Elizabethans, whose literature was full of gross hu mor. It may be that we are only more afraid of ourselves and each other. This kind of fear is destructive not only of gross humor, but of humor of ail kinds. In its essence humor is brave as it is honest, but with cowardice and dishonesty there come base substitutes for it. substitutes that make fun of noble tilings with a humorous air, and so bring humor itself into discredit.— London Times.

What is probably the largest steel I passenger car equipment owned by any railroad in the world is that of the Pennsylvania Railroad which, with the cars just completed and those in course of construction, has 630 all-steel pas senger cars. With this large number of steel cars, the Pennsylvania Rail road is now to start the operation of all-steel car passenger trains on some of its lines of densest traffic. On August 12th, 1906, the Pennsyl vania Railroad announced that all fu ture passenger equipment would bo built of steel ; not only steel frame, but steel and non-collapsible in evory particular. In planning the cars and establishing the standards, which are now copied in all the Pennsylva nia passenger cars, no expense has been spared by the company to build a coach which should provide the great est possible strength, a steel framing which conld not be affected by fire, an inside lining which should be absolute ly unburnable, and, at the same time, one that would not conduct heat or sound. The Pennsylvania Railroad in Nov ember, 1900, ordered 100 all-steel pas senger care. Since that time addi tional ordeaa have been placed and there are now in service on the Com pany's lines 245 coaches, 10 dining cars, 21 combination passenger and baggage cars, 29 baggage cars, 18 pos tal cars, and one company car ; a to tal of 324 cars. In course of construc tion there are 110 coaches, 34 dining cars, 48 combination passenger and baggage cars, 4 baggage cars, 42 postal cars, 27 mail storage cars, and 11 bag gage and mail cars. The Pullman Company, at the in stance of the Pennsylvania Railroad, has for the last four years been at work designing all-steel parlor and sleeping cars. Some 500 such cars are shortly to be completed and placed in service on the Pennsylvania Railroad. With the all-steel passenger equip ment now in service or on order, and some 250 Bteel cars to be ordered on the 1910 passenger equipment pro gram, the Pennsylvania Railroad will, in a short time, have in service about 900 of its own steel passenger cars, and 500 steel Pullman cars.

Head this: Mrs. John Summerson, W. Sixth St., Emporium, Pa,, says: "My back ached most of the time and there was a sore ness across my kidneys. Rheumatic pains darted through my limbs and in the morning when I got up, I felt tired and lauguid. Hearing that Doun's Kidney Pills were an excellent preparation for complaiuts of this kind, I procured a supply at Taggart's drug store. The remedies I had previously taken had not helped me, but Doan's Kidney Pills brought relief at once. I now feel much stronger and better in every way."
