gate the condition of women and chil
dren employed In Ohio factories.

church, which Mr. Vanderbilt attend
ed.
POWER FOR FARM WORK.
The Gasoline Knglne Popular—lt Is
Cheaply and Easily Operated.
Cheap power on the farm Is as Im
portant as anywhere. Horses cannot
always be had when wanted, wind
power is not constant enough for all
purposes, Hteani Is expensive, so the
gasoline engine supplies an Important
need. From Its introduction It took
well, but of recent years has made
wonderful progress. The mechanism
has been so perfected that the disa
greeable odor and frequently faulty (
operation urged against the earlier
machines have disappeared entirely.
All sizes and styles are now available,
from the small upright for running a
churn or separator to the twelve horse
power traction engine operating a saw
mill or thrasher or drawing large loads
along the country roads.
What Is the secret of their popular
ity? Probably the most attractive
feature Is the small cost of operating.
By following directions any one at all
familiar with machinery can run a
gasoline engine, no engineer being re
quired. In fact, after the engine Is
once started further attention is un
necessary until It Is to be stopped. In
grinding feed, for example, one man
can do all the work. He starts the en
gine, then has all bis time for keeping
the hopper fuJl and removing the
ground material. The same Is true of
pumping water, sawing wood, separat
ing milk, churning butter, cutting feed,
thrashing grain, cleaning seed, etc.
Then the cost of fuel Is very small. A
twelve horsepower engine will con
sume 10 to 14 cents' worth of gasoline
per hour, a five horsepower stationary
engine 5 to 0 cents' worth and in that
proportion for various sizes. The first
cost Is no greater than a steam engine
of like capacity and In some Instances
Is much less.
A great advantage when the engine
is to be used about barns and stacks is
almost no danger from fire. The t*ngine
can be placed in the baru, hay shed,
granary, dairy—wherever most conven
ient. The uses to which It can be put
are so many that It Is needless to enu
merate them.
The cost of the application of gaso
line motors to trucks, carriages, mow
ers, farm wagons and the like is still
great enough to be prohibitive on the
farm. Doubtless the time wll come
when gasoline motive power will l>e
applied to portable farm Implements
and machinery, but this is still a long
way off. concludes Orange Judd Farm
er.
PULPIT AND PEW.
The Episcopalians of Milwaukee are
to build a new house for Bishop Nichol
son of that diocese.
The Pennsylvania Baptist State Mis
sion society has decided to use an auto
mobile in place of a wagon for travel
ing mission work. It is believed that
such a vehicle will serve to draw great
er crowds.
The salary of the Rev. Frank Crane,
the new pastor of the People's church.
Chicago, as successor of tlie Rev. Dr.
H. W. Thomas, is to be ?7,f>00 per an
num, which is the largest salary paid
any clergyman in Chicago.
Because of failing health the Rev.
Dr. Samuel E. Appleton has resigned
the rectorship of the Protestant Episco
pal Church of the Mediator in Philadel
phia after forty-one years' service, lie
lias been made pastor emeritus.
APIARISTS' WINTER WORK.
The Time to Hoy Hives, Fnrnltnre
and Other Supplies.
After the bees are tucked away com
fortably iu their winter quarters there
Is little else of outside work to be done
only to see that the entrances of the
hives are kept clear of dead bees and
fcnow or Ice during winter, and F. G.
Herman has suggested in New Eng
land Homestead that this is a good
time to take time by the forelock and
think about the coming spring.
Mr. Herman buys all hives and fur
niture in the fiat and makes them up
duriug leisure hours In winter. Of
course every beekeeper has a shop or
little nook somewhere to work in. If
one has a furnace In the cellar and
there are windows enough to let In the
light. no better place could be desired.
"Another advantage," says Mr. Her
man, "in buying supplies early is that
dealers give to early purchasers a scale
of discount beginning with tiie mouth
of November and running through the
winter. The earlier the purchases are
made the larger the discount."
The I.annstrotti Hive.
There is no patent on the Lang
stroth, probably the most extensively
used of all hives. An exchange states
Its dimensions as follows.: A box 9V&
Inches deep. 13% inches wide and 20
inches long, outside measure. Tho
material used is pine boards planed
down to seven-eighths of an inch In
thickness.
The regular I>jngstroth frame is
made of the same material, and the
dimensions of frame are
deep and 17% inches long. The top bar
of frame should be one-half of one Inch
thick and ends and bottom one-fourth
of an inch In thickness.
Each hive contains eight of above
frames and each frame occupies m
inches in space. Almost every one
who commences with some other hive
will sooner or later make the change,
and very often at considerable ex
pense.
Factory and Home Workmanship.
The hive should not only be sub
stantially built, but should have ac
curate bee spaces and a close fitting
rainproof cover or roof. Factory made
hives, as a rule, best meet these re
quirements. as both lock joints and
half corners can only be made to ad
vantage by machinery, and the expert
hive builder understands, of course,
the absolute necessity of great accu
racy iu bee spaces, as well as the great
desirability of good material and
workmanship.
RAILWAY RUMBLES.
The Santa Fe Railroad company has
surveyed for building 815 miles ot rail
road in the southwest.
Another $0.<»00.000 is to be expended
in Chicago in elevating a railroad, the
Chicago and Western Indiana.
An automobile inspection car for the
use of road overseers and track inspect
ors has been put into use by a number
of railroads.
The woman as porter and guard al
ready is known on French railways,
but now a German railroad has opened
a larger field to women and Is employ
ing them as booking clerks, telegraph
operators and in other posts.
An edict from General Manager Dick
inson of the Union Pacific railway re
cently notified several thousand em
ployees of that system that habitual
drinking or even the frequenting of sa
loons on their part would In the future
be cousidered sufficient reason for dis
missal.

The difficulty which Mark Twain has
met in his endeavor to have himself

are afire with love?" We trust that
Miss Herron has not mistaken heart

Itching Scalp.
Bcald Head and the Most Violent
Forms of Eczema and Salt Rheum
Promptly and Thoroughly Cured
by Or. Chase's Ointment.
Among small children, scald head and
similar itching skin diseases are most preva
-1 lent, and the worst feature is that these ail
i ments, which are apparently trivial at first,
almost invariably develop into chronic eczema
i if neglected.
j There is but oa« treatment that physicians
, sre unanimous m recommending for scald
heads abd eczema,
healer. It
- a thorough and
complete cure.
> Scores and thous
, '' """ ands of men and
, women stand ready to vouch for the merits
of Dr. Chase's Ointment. It has brought
sbout some of the most marvelous cures ever
recorded. In justice to yourself and family,
you cannot do without it in your home.
Mr. J. H. Grant, 716 Joseph Campan ave
nue, Detroit, Mich., writes.
•'For three years I have been troubled by
an intense itching on my body. So terrible
was it at times that I could get no rest night
or day. I tried all kinds of ointments and
blood purifiers, but could get no relief. Mr.
11. A. Nlcolai of 379 Division street recom
mended Dr. Chase's Ointment. A few
appllcstions stopped the itching and 1 have
felt nothing since."
Baby Eczema.
Mr. F. 8. Hose of 133 Sixteenth street,
Buffalo, N. Y., write!
"Our baby boy suffered for some time
with thst wretched eciems, and we were un
able to find anything to cure or even relievo
bis pain. A ftw applications of Dr. A. W.
Chase's Ointment stopped the itching and
healed the sores, and a bright, natural skin
now takes their place." *
Dr. Chase's Ointment does not cause pain
when applied, but soothes the sore or in
flamed surface. 50 cents at all dgftlsr*. or Dr

How to Slake I'otnto Croat.
Into u liitll pint of uiasbed potato j
beat two tablespooufuls of melted but
ter, a pint of milk and two beaten eggs.
Adil enough flour to make a dough that
can be rolled out, season with salt and
make iuto a sheet. Spread over a meat
pie just before putting it in tlie oven.
Bake to a t;ood brown.
Hon to (00k Itlee niitl Sautaxe,
Sausage and rice make a most pala
table combination. The link sausages
and the rice are simply boiled together,
with black pepper and whole spice for
seasoning, until both are well done.
The dish must of course be served
while hot.
now to Make I:«K Cord In!.
An egg cordial that will be appreciat
ed iu the sickroom needs a tablespoou
ful of cream, a teaspoonful of sugar, a
tablespoonful of brandy and the white
of an egg. The egg is beaten almost to
a froth, the cream added and the two
whipped to a stiff froth. Add the bran- '
dy by degrees and serve the cordial at
once.
How to Bake Plea.
When baking pies, if they ore very
juicy take a piece of stiff brown paper
about two inches long, roll it around
so it is like a little tube and insert in j
the center of the pie, and the steam ■
goes through It like u little chimney, i
This prevents the juice from running j
out. 1
Ilow to FIT Ham.
Slice the bam tbe night before; trim /
neatly, leaving u narrow border of fat.
Cover each slice with a cup of cold wa
ter in which a tablespoonful of sugar
has been dissolved. This softens and
freshens the meat and gives it a fine
flavor. Wipe the slices dry before put
ting them into tbe frying pan. I
Alitdkan Dogi.
Alaskan dogs are called malamutes
and are a cross between a dog and a
wolf. About two months after birth
they are trained to draw little wagons j
and soon become very useful. They
have long hair and can sleep in the
open air with the thermometer GO de
grees below zero. 1
