A number of authorities on this i subject have made the prophecy that j unless the American mends his ways and changes the direction in which cer tain of his habits and tendencies lie ; his legs will become as atrophied as has become his little toe from close eonfine | ment in shoes and long disuse. These authorities have pointed out , the street car. the automobile and the average man's eagerness to "get therf" i u the quickest way and wTth the least possible effort as the causes for the present deterioration in legs, 1 and as mechanical locomotion becomes more and more accessible and the rid ing habit grows man will have less and i les t use for his feet and legs. In addition to electric cars and auto- ' mobiles, another modern device con tributes to the average man's increas-1 | ing feebleness of limb. That modern | device is the elevator. To the present j generation, accustomed to ride from f tloor to floor and to push the elevator 1 | bell button and wait for the car rath er than climb a flight of stairs, it prob ably seem? queer to see or hear the ele vator mentioned as a modern device. Men in their youth and even in their middle age have become so habituated to the elevator thai they feel that such a thing always was. or at least that it is co-eval with brick and stone build ings. et the elevator is a modern de vice. and the word "elevator"' in the application given it in America is new er still than the contrivance it de scribes. Before the demolition of the old Fifth Avenue hotel in New York there was in one of the elevators a tablet, on which was inscribed this: "In this space was erected and operated in i I • ' - ■ t - FIATtBIkBFRfi STAR-TNDTCPENDENT. TUESDAY EVENING, APRIT, 13, 1915. 1 1559 Tuft's vertical screw railway, the first passenger elevator ever buMt." That elevator was one of the chief wonders of the hotel, which, because of its luxury and magnificence, was con sidered one of the wonders of the new world. The "vertical railway," which saved persons the trouble of walking up and down stairs, was widely written about, and people came from far and near to look at the strange invention and to be able to tell their admiring friends in Boston. Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington and other cities out in the provinces that they had been able to go up and down stairs without walking. When travelers came from New York and told about this' vertical screw rail way to our grandfathers, those worthy gentleman raised their eyes and hands in astonishment and probably ex j claimed: "Will wonders never ceasef" An English trade paper, the London "Builder." in September. 1859. had an editorial on the subject of the vertical i screw railway in the United States.' saying: "It is a carriage that will! j move from the top to the bottom of' the building and from the bottom to ; I the top. It will be forced upward by the application of-steam power, and the descent will be regulated by the resistance of hydraulic jiower." It was not until the early seventies i that'the vertical railway was intro- : duped in England, the first "lift" be-1 ing installed in Albert hall, and to ride j in this passengers were required to pay a fee of one penny. Conservative peo ple in America a:id England looked on this invention with grave suspicion and "felt it in their bones" that it was only a question of time when it would fall down and kill everybody in it. To-day the lift is nothing like so common in Europe as the elevator, which is the same thing, is in the Unit ed States. One reason for this is that the United States is the birthplace and I the home of the skysernper. while high 'buildings, as buililing heights arc measured in America, are infrequent iu Europe.—Washington Star.

FLOATING HOMES ' Barge Dwellers of New York One of | the Sights of the Harbor The lot of the harbor bargeman is! not one for commiseration. He is far | more independent and content than his ' neighbors in the fetid hives of the ! tenement district which he sees from his barge as he floats past the river foot of New York's east side streets. At evening his floating home is moored in a quiet dock. He may sit on his bit of deck and enjoy his after j supper pipe in quiet as he gazes upon i the darkling ripples of the water and j listens to the dying roar of the city's busy day. His wife sits beside him. I ; putting the last stitches in a gingham I • garment for their child, who already is > ! in his bunk. Their cabin is bright and i out and within. White paint and green [ trimmings, a bit of striped awning and a little flagstaff are its outward em-1 I bellishments. Muslin curtains at its I , tiny windows, geraniums on the sills, j a cheery nickel clock on its own shelf I above its foot, in which the son and cloth, a homemade braided rug upon 1 a bright oilcloth—these give character |to the living room, or galley. Within |is the bedroom, perhaps 6 by 8 feet, with a white iron bed and a bunk above its foot .in which the son and heir sleeps peacefully. There may be a cottage in Xew Jer sey or down Long Island sound wait ing this worthy couple when winter's ! ice closes the Hudson and ends their i season's work, but they make the barge their home while on it. Some of these barge homes shelter families of five or six persons. On some of the large covered railroad barges the skipper's house is on tin roof. Its dimensions may be 10 by 30 feet, affording three rooms. In ' the "parlor one would not be surprised to find a sofa, a music machine and j rucks of records and family portraits jin crayon, all according to usage I ashore, while the captain, being of a I sporting turn, takes his family to sail ,on a Sunday in a gorgeously painted l punt of his own building with lee ; boards to make it weutherly and a sail ! setting as neatly as the canvas of a cup defender.—Harper's .Magazine. Wisdom Teeth The so-called wisdom teeth are the two last molars to grow and they have I no real connection with the possession jof wisdom. They take their name from ' the time of their arrival, from 20 to 25 ! years, at which age the average person j is supposed to have reached years of I discretion. Cutting one's wisdom | teeth means simply arriving at the point of completeness in physical equip ment and has uo direct relation to men tal equipment. The possession of these teeth is no guarantee of wisdom. They grow at about the same age in people | whether they are wise or not. A Prudent Provision "Jones is nothing if not thorough.
