"Why, Ethel, dearT" exclaimed her aatofihdied parent, "I need a quart which you must get" Again the lit tie girl paused. "No," ahe 1 said. "I'll get you a pint" "I'm surprised at you!

In other words, the United SUtea baa not an army large enough to permit of a policy of plac Ing one soldier at every post office in the : United States in time of some sucklt-n , emergency, and even If the strength of : the army were doubled its force would still be Insufficient for such a pur pose. This condition of affairs is not pleas ing to military men generally, and army ofllcers have many times consid ered the advisability of the adoption of some system by which the strength of the army In some sudden- emergency could be increnaed. The prize esay of the military service institution for this year, for example, denls wHh the ques tion of establishing a system which in time of need would be utilized in rais ing a volunteer army for almost Imme diate service. The essny te at li.nst In teresting, although naturally it Is written from the point of view of an army officer. According to this eFay, the best sys tem to provide for any sudden emer gency of war would be one which had been mapped out in mlYnnee, and for the proper working of which some prcpnnition had previously been made. . The csnay propose In effect that the ; regiments of Ihe volunteer army shall be raised on a system which allows one regiment to each congressional district. , and one no to each territory, exclu- i ; sive of Alaska. Such a system would I call for a force of about 4.1..nno men, or 301 regiment, each regiment hav ! in,!? 1.200 men. I Of those nfil regiments the greater I part wouM naturally lie infantry. It Is propnpod, for example, that I S2."i ri'.Tinients of inlnntry, CI of heavy nrtillery, 30 of light j artillery and 4 of cavalry would repre I sent n fair apportionment. Tbdoffluers of these regiments would lie commis ! sioned ttniler federal law, the colonel of i each reg-iment being a regular, with a , rank not nhove that of mt'jor of the active list of the nrniy, nnd liis sen'lce I requirements being restricted to not 1 more than one nior.'th In each year. Hy i some such system as this, it is claimed ! that, when war should break out. at j leost the ofiicers of the different regi j ments would lie men of some experl j ence in military affairs. The proposi i tion is somewhat original, but it is not ! likely to be adopted In This country so , long as the present system of the nn- tiional guard Is in exhltencc. Tloston ! Advertiser. AMERICAN VS. FOREIGN ENGINES KnRtlah Jnnrnnl'i Itefnaol to rielleve In American Iteeorda of Speed. The Engineer of London does not, we arc eure, intend-o pose US tt bumaf'"U'H Journal; but, nevertheless, it Js some times quite nmuBing, particularly when trying to demonstrate to its own satis faction, and to make its readers be lieve, that things regularly done here in America are, ns n matter of fact. "Im possible, don't you know." In its issue of September 10 Is pub lished the official record of the fast run between I'hiJadeyphin and Atlantic ; City. N. J., for the month of July last, f this record showing the time, from start i to Mop, to average 43 minutes for the 4.iij miles the figures vnryingslightly on different days. The table was fur- ished by the Haldwin locomotive works, nnd snowed the performance ot the train in detail for every day of the month, while accompanying it was a profile of the road, showing the grades traversed. One would imagine such Information from such a sorce to be entitled to no- i ?eptance in a respectful manner, and, in" fact, for the time being, the figure were allowed to go unchallenged, nnd In its hssne of October 22 the Engineer even published a letter from E. K. (lark, of Leeds, testifying that, he made the trip on the locomotive of the train on n day when the distance was covered tn 47 minutes. In its issue of November 19, however, the paper returns to the subject in a leading editorial, nnd, re ferring to the official record before pub '.ifhed, It says: "Deyond nil question, that official record is quite fallacious. It is not true either in substance or In fact. It is a record of mechanical Im possibilities. Nevertheless, wj think we have actttallygotthescIentiHetruth In Clement Stretton's letter, which will be found in another page." Reference to Mr. Ktretton's letter, shows that It relates to a ran made iu WjX when the time made waS54 mln- I otcs. There Is not a scintilla of cvi tence nralnst the record of lr.17. but n because of the slower time In 1803, the I record for the last season "is not true eitber in substance or in fact. Xow the question is: Does the En gineer really believe that because a cer tain rate of speed was not attained in 1893, therefore It cannot be In 1807, and that anyone who claims it can be is mendacious, or does it deliberately In tend to resort to mere pettifogging methods to deceive its reader 7 We must confess that we see no other al ternative. Nevertheless, the Engineer is forced ! to admit from Mr. Stretton figures of the run as made four years ago that American locomotives do make faster time than English ones.

Do not turn the berries from the boxes If they hnve not been carefully picked. Do not top the baskets with the finest berries. When the season Is ndvaneotl It is well to sort the berries while pick ing, making two grades, the smaller to lie sold for canning purposes. Straw berries should not be picked while the vines are wet, either with dew or rain, If it can be avoided, but If neces sary only partly fill the boxes, allow ing the berries to dry off, after which they ca tie filled by turning from one box to another.
