A teacher In a downtown school
has for her pupils the children of
Russian parents. The other day she
was explaining a sum In subtraction
which the little ones found difficult
to understand.
"Now," said she, to exemplify the
proposition, "Bupposo I had ?10 and
went into a store to spend it. say
I bought a hat for $5. Then I
spent $2 for gioves, and Jl.fio for
some other things. How much did
I have left?"
For a moment there was dead
silence. Then a boy's hand went
up.
"Well, Isaac, how much did I have
left?"
"Vy didn't you count your

tone.

one of bis old battles?"
"No," replied the other; "he's
talking about the holiday he spent
at the Swiss hotel."

a balnnce due the city of about

posed amounting to $2,852, with
$815 served In jail sentences, while
the Mayor's private docket showed
$574 as having boon collected. The
fees which that official actually
turned over to the City Treasurer
amounted to $1,170.

j Assistance was asked from Ash

FAVOR VACCINATION.
riiysiclans Approve Attempt Of Gov
ernment To Immunize Soldiers.
Philadelphia (Special). Dr. John
H. Musser, one of the most promi
nent bacteriologlstg and pathologists
of the city, has been chosen as this
city's representative on the Medical
Board which will meet in Washing
ton to consider the possibility of im
munizing soldiers against epidemics
of typhoid.
Dr. Musser declared himself being
in favor of the proposed step and
as being a believer in the efficacy of
vaccination as a means of warding
off the disease. He said:
"Experiments conducted both in
this country and abroad have shown
conclusively that vaccination against
typhoid will In a majority of caseE
result In a period of Immunity from
the attacks of the disease."
Dr. Alfred Stengel, another of the
city's most prominent physician and
educators, believes that although the
method of vaccinating against ty
phoid Is still in the experimental
stage it has already proved itself to
be a valuable weapon in the war
against the disease.
Dr. W. M. L. CopHn, professor of
pathology and bacteriology at the
Jefferson Medical College thought the
employment of tho weapon in the FlRurcs Represent
ngnt against typhoid will lend to thr

A deep ruffle added to the lower

protection.
When about to cut new bread or

Dog Police in England.
The police nuthorlllee In England
have at last decided to follow In
some degree the custom of the con
tinent and recognise bloodhounds as
a permanent agent in the detection
of crime.
MaJ. Richardson, who baa for
years been breeding wholly with a
view to perfection of scent cross
bred bloodhounds, received a formal
notice that his dogs are to be re
tained by the Hertfordshire police.
MaJ. Richardson will keep the dogs
and train them, but they will be sent
by the Hertfordshire authorities on
the occurrence of any crime in the
detection of which they may be ut-e-ful.
A great number of the other coun
ty authorities are discussing the em
ployment of dogs, and the Idea has
particularly appealed to those in
Scotlnnd. It is probable that In "a
short lime this special breed dogs
whose heredity is as yet a Becret
--will bo generally recognized as an
nrm of the dotectlve service, as In
Berlin, where a motor car. specially
built for carrying a dozen or more

Costliest Railroad In America.
Regarded by engineers as a mar
vel of construction is the Spokane,
Portland and Bfattla Hallway, f123
miles, the most direct lino between
Spokane and Portland, which will
be completed January 1, 1901. The
road, built Jointly by the Greal
Northern and Northern Pacific sys
tems, Is the most expensive in Amer
ica. The line will permit of longer
trains being hauled over It than any
other road In tho country. There
are no sharp curvatures, the greatest
being 3 degrees, nnd us a result one
locomotive can pull from Spokane
to Portland as mnny cars as it can
start on level ground. This is ex
pected to set new records for heavy
loading.
Twenty miles of lino between Pbb
eo and KahlotuB cost $f., 000, 000, or
$250,000 a mile, while a mile of
road along the bluffs overhanging
Snnlie River Involved an expenditure
of $r00,000. To survey and build
this part of the line, which follows
the Columbia River, men were sus
pended over the cliffs with ropes;
but while there were many narrow
escapes, not a life was lost, nor was
any one seriously injured. New

Prayer Was Short.
A Scotch lawyer had to address
ti e Caledonian equivalent of our su
premo Court. His "pleading" occu
pied an entire day. After seven
hours of almost continuous oratory
he went home to supper and was
aaked to eondaot family worship. As
he was exhausted his devotions were
brief.
"I am aahamad of ye," said the
old mother. "To think ye could talk
for seven Iiooth up at the court and
dismiss your Maker in seven min
utes." "Ay, verra true," was the reply,
"but yo maun mind that the Lord
Isna eae dull In the uptak as the
J udge-bodies." Bellman.

Improved Methods Insure Chenper
Goods.
For hundreds of years mankind
used the same style and size of razor
and had no thought that It could be
Improved until some genius evolved
the safety razor. That genius reaped
the benefit of his Inventive talent by
charging from $3 to $5 for each im
plement, people being glad to buy at
those figures. Now comes another
Inventor who has made possible a
still better safety razor, and for only
twenty-five cents. That sum In post
age stamps sent to the Book Publish
ing House, 134 Leonard street, New
York, will secure a razor postpaid by
return mall. This low price Is only
made possible by the invention of
scientific machinery which produces
wonderful results at small cost.
