Personal KcspoiiKlbility.
In a consular report from Ger
many which was published some
months ago the statement was made
that not only In every wreck, col
lision or minor railroad accident
"thoroughly Investigated" In that
country, but that. "Invariably some
one Is held responsible and punished
for the occurrence," except where
the proof Is conclusive that human
vigilance and care could not have
averted It, it Is strange and per
plexing to contrast this condition
with the situation in this country.
Apart from the fact .that as yet no
provision has been made for thorough
governmental investigation of acci
dents and for reports definitely fixing
responsibility, there is the graver cir
cumstance that no one hero is ap
parently In danger of punishment for
his share of responsibility for a rail
road accident. So far no one has
ever been convicted for negligence
causing a wreck, and the result of
recent trials is very significant, to
say the least.
The other day a Jury acquitted the
englneor, conductor and brakeman
who had been Indicted for the Terra
Cotta, D. C, wreck of a year ago,
one of the worst rnilroad disasters
in the history of such calamities.
The evidence In regard to the signals
was conflicting, and the engineer
proved that he had worked extra
hours of his own free will and
gone long without sleep Immediately
before the accident. Some two weeks
ago a New York court ordered a ver
dict of acquittal in the case of the
vice president and general manager
of the New York Central, who had
been Indicted for negligence In con
nection with the terrible Woodlawn
wreck. No direct responsibility had
been traced to the defendants, who.
In the opinion of the judge, could
not be expected to know the exact
condition of every curve, switch, mile
of track, etc., on a great line. Chi

New Type of Roadway.
A new type of roadway has been
developed in some parts of California
known as the petrollthlc, which !s
nothing more than a well-built oil
ed road. The leading feature of this
pavement Is the very complete com
pacting of the oiled material by
means of a rolling tamper, a new
piece of road machinery. It was de
signed to Insure the tamping of the
material from the lower portions up
ward to the surface, instead of down
ward from the surface. The Inven
tor received the Idea from seeing a
large flock of sheep walk over a new
ly plowed road. After the sheep had
passed over it the soil was found to
be packed so hard that a pick in
dented it but a short distance. To
obtain this effect with a roller the
circumference of the main roll Is
covered with tampers, which act like
so many feet walking over the earth
id packing it down.
Paris, France. The De Sagan
Castellane quarrel continues to excite
all aristocratic Paris. Clubmen crit
icise Prince Helle de Sagan because
he has made French titled aristocracy
ridiculous In the eyes of the public
by appealing to an humble police
court for satisfaction Instead of In
stantly challenging Count Bonl de
Castellane, divorced husband of Anna
Gould, to a duel, and the plain people
are chuckling over the decadence of
an aristocracy which prefers settling
domestic scandals In a police court In
stead of with swords and pistols on
the dueling field.
The Marquis de Castellane, father
of Count Bonl, freely disoussed the
quarrel, saying:
"You ask me to give the exact re
port of the violent encounter which
took place between my son and the
Prince de Sagan. This I do with all
the greater pleasure, as it gives me
the opportunity to rectify the false
accounts which got Into sonje of the
newspapers.

New York City. The recent report
of the Health Board shows that dur
ing the one month there were 1202
deaths from pneumonia, many of
them beginning with Influenza. In
addition to this there have been 12 6
deaths from Influenza without pneu
monia. . It seems a flttine; time to say a
word about the preventive treatment
of these fatal diseases. Here are
three suggestive rules laid down by
Dr. Samuel G. Tracy:
1. Keep mouth, teeth, tonsils and
nose clean.
2. Keep vital resistance of the
body up to the standard.
3. Breathe plenty of freBh air,
both In the house and out of it, but
protect the body from cold and
draughts by proper clothing.
It Is necessary to keep the mouth,
nose, tonsils, etc., clean, because the
mucous membrane of these parts, es
pecially tho tonsils, Is not infrequent
ly the. port of entry of the germs of
several Infectious diseases, as Influ
enza, pneumonia and ncute rheuma
tism. The little depressions in the
tonsils are a favorite place for these,
germs to lodge; when the tonsils are
Inflamed and the vital resistance of
the body lowered from any cause.
these germs are taken Into the sys
tem, circulated In the blood, and
multiply with great rapdity. To pre
vent their development it is necessary
to antiseptically cleanse their breed
ing places and keep them clean, es
pecially If one spends a considerable
time in the rooms of those who have
Influenza or pneumonia. As a clean
ser I would recommend a simple an
tiseptic alkaline wash. The follow
ing formula can be made at home or
at the druggist's:
Powdered boraclc acid, 18 grains;
thymol, 1 grain; alcohol, 1 ounce;
table salt, 20 grains; baking soda, 30
grains; essence wlntergreen, 2 tea
spoonfuls; glycerine, 1 tablcspoonful;
distilled water, 6 ounces.
Use the solution plain as a mouth
wash or gargle, and diluted one-half
with water It can be used as an anti
septic spray for the nose.
This solution should be used daily
after breakfast or at bedtime, and
oftener If much exposed. The prep
aration Is not poisonous, and no harm
will come If a little Is swallowed.
In some cases I recommend the
use of peroxide of hydrogen tocleanBe
tho throat and mouth before the ap
plication of the antiseptic alkaline solution.

RAILROAD MAN
Didn't Like Being Starved.
A man runnlug on a railroad has
to be In good condition all the time
or he Is liable to do harm to himself
and others.
A clear head is necessary to run a
locomotive or conduct a train. Even
a railroad man's appetite and diges
tion are matters of Importance, as
the clear brain and steady hand re
sult from the healthy appetite fol
lowed by the proper digestion of food.
"For the past five years," writes a
railroader, "I have been constantly
troubled with indigestion. Every
doctor I consulted seemed to want to
starve me to death. First I was
dieted on warm water and toast un
til I was almost starved; then, when
they would let me eat, the Indiges
tion would be right back again.
"Only temporary relief came from
remedies, and 1 tried about all of
them I saw advertised. About three
months ago a friend advised me to
try Grape-Nuts food. The very Qrst
day I noticed that my appetite was
satisfied, which bad not been the esse
before, that I can remember
"In a week, I believe, I had more
energy than ever before in my life. I
have gained seven pounds and have
uot. had a touch of indigestion since I
hive been eating Urape-Nuts. When
my wife saw how uiuch good this
food was doing me she thought she
would try it awhile. We believe tbo
discoverer of Grape-Nuts found the
Perfect Food." "

Ol'POSI-. NKW RD LAW.
Wllllamsport (Special). At the
dosing cession of the annual conven
tion of the Pennsylvania Farmers'
Alllanco and industrial Union, held
here, the representatives from nearly
-Ixty counties expressed themselves
in favor of legislation that will revo
lutionize the present policy of tho
State Highway Department, and also
the repeal of the State road law pass
ed by the Legislature In 1903. The
primary objections offered against
the svstem of management in vogue
In the State Highway Department Is
the high salaries pnld to tho Com
missioner and his nssltants. Which
they claim are exorbitant, while
.wiimiIp supervisors are obliged to
MTV4 gratis.
The objection offered to the State
read law of 1903 was that the ad
ditional $1 tax, which Is levied upon
every taxable In each township, In
addition to the regular road tax levy,
was an Imposition and nn outrage.
Tho farmers want more money for
county roads by appropriation from
the State, believing that too much of
the State funds are expended foolish
ly, especially for salaries.
The delegates to this convention
believe that there should be appro
priations to township supervisors
for tho purpose of constructing and
maintaining good roads from the
State Department. President' W. A.
Gardner, of Potter County. Bald:
"As long as township supervisors
nre dependent only upon the revenue
from road taxation for the mainte
nance of roads In Pennsylvania, es
pecially the mountainous districts,
will always bear a reputation for
poor county roads. Too much money
Is being wasted by the State High
way Department that would other
wise prove of great benefit to the
roads of tho State."

the secret of the long lives of bibli

people of today should not attain
such venerable years, Thomas Coch

passed his one hundred and fifth
birthday, Is calmly lying in bed at
his home, waiting for the second day
of February, upon which he annually
makes his appearance and takes his
accustomed place among the family.
He patterns his life after that of
the ground hog and is persuaded
that his long years and remarkably
good health are the result of careful
study and the adoption of their mode
of existence. He commenced this
I style of living some years since, upon
lenrnlng of the many years which
some ground hogs lived. He argued
that it must be due to the fact that
they retired to their holes and await
ed the coming of Spring, so he con
cluded to do likewise.
With the first cold snap of Win
ter he goes to bed and never comes
down stairs until the second of Feb
ruary, which Is ground-hog day.
Even then he does not venture out,
but watches the women going to
church and If he sees their shadow
returns to bed; otherwise he resnmes
I Ills duties. He is confident he will
I live many years yet and his appear
