"It does seem odd, certiiltily," nll
it builder of howling alleys, "to think
of howling nllcys on upper Moors, hnt
we nre putting them there, tiovriirtnys.
t'ntil within very recent years the
bowling nlley, In elf lot nt least, whs
always to be found In n biisctneiit.
Now noliody about to littlld new nllcys
would think of Instiilllng them there.
' "Thin lllieriil elevation of the tillcy
hns been brought ntioiit hy tho olevn
tlon of tho gimie nnd ly grent Im
provements In tho construction of tho
alley themselves. Tho first of these
Dew condition brought In ninny new
plnyers who ileninnded more ngrce
able surroundings, the second hns
made It rosslhle to put bowling alleys
anywhere.
"The elev.Mlon of the gnme Is ilno
lo the plnyers themselves, netlng
through the Ainerlenn Howling Con
gress, composed of bowling clubs nnd
lengues, nnd now Including the grent
majority of the howling orgniiir.nttotis
east of the Itncky Mountains, If not In
the whole United Btntes. There hns
been adopted n stnndnrd bowling nl
ley; nnd alleys mnde to conform to
'Amcrlcnn Howling Congress require
ments nre the snme ns to measure
ments everywhere. They mny, of
course, be poorer or bettor, compara
tively, ns to the materials used and
ns to their construction.
"Bowling alleys In recent years have
been greatly Improved In construction
and finish; In fact. In every way. In
old times In the construction they
would lay leveling strips nlong on
the floor where they were to build the
alley, nnd then put down the nlley bed
of yellow pine or of maple, 3x1 Inch
stuff set on edge nnd blind nailed, as
you nail down n fine floor. The very
finest of the present-day bowling al
leys are made with the ends the end
upon which the pins are set and the
end near the foul line which receives
the Impact of the hall when first set
rolling of mnple; the long Interven
ing space being of Norway pine, this
stuff of the usunl dimensions, Sxl
Inches, and made, of course, to lie on
on edge In the nlley bed, being all
ton cued and grooved on the deep sides.
"In building the finest nnd costliest
alleys of such materials, -the stuff Is
not laid down on the levelling pieces
and nailed there, hut the bed Is built
Standing up on its edge beside the
place It Is to occupy. Strip after
strip Is laid up until the entire nlley
bed, seventy-live feet or more In
length, Including the runway, hns been
built up Into one continuous structure,
strip secured to strip, nud the whole
held togethed by steel chimps. The
bed thus built is then tipped down Into
Its proper horizontal position on the
levelling pieces and made fast there,
the top being then levelled and finished
and polished.
"An alley bed of that character
would be likely to bo a revelation to n
man not accustomed to bowling alleys.
It seems almost white In color, or like
a pale yellow translucent glass, nnd It
looks as though It were as smooth as
glass, or as the top of a piano or nuy
other piece of polished cabinet work.
It Is some sort of fun to roll ten pins
on nn alley llko that, to any nothing
of the aid to good rolling afforded by
Its accurncy and smoothness of sur
face. "And then, lr you hadn't lieen around
In bowling alleys much In late years
you would seo other things that would
surprise you, say, the return chute,
patented, of course, that carries a bull
returned from tho pit hack to the
player along tho level of the alley bod,
and lands It finally up In tho trough
besides the runway at tho old conveni
ent level. This Is a surprisingly sim
ple thing. Instead of being support
ed on standards placed along the side
of the alley at a sufllclunt height above
the floor to give the slope required
to carry the ball back to the players'
end of the nlley, the chute drops
abruptly, close to the pin end. This
sudden drop gives the ball an Impetus
that carries It rapidly along the chute
at the level of the alley bed to tho
players' end, where there la an abrupt
rise In the chute corresponding to the
abrupt drop at the pin end-. This rise
at the players' end la so constructed
as to permit tho ball Just to surmount
it, and then to roll on back to Its
place in the trough very gently. In a
room filled with bowling alleys that
were equipped with return chutes of
this kind, you get a quite unobstruct
ed view of tuo whole room clear from
side to side.
"Not everybody goes In for that sort
of outfit, however. Less costly alleys
are built of maple throughout, for In
stance, and the return chute carried
on standurds In the usual way uro
atill used.
"A modern bowling nlley of perfect
construction does not give you half
the thunder In rolling balls on it that
. you get of necessity frooi the old tim
ers. With tho alleys lall on a suita
ble subfoundatlon the sound Is further
reduced fifty per ceut at least; and
built In this manner, they are now put
In on upper 'doors without disturbing
the tenant on the floor below. There
is a bowline; 5 H on the floor above
one of tho best restaurants In Chicago.
"Chicago la ahead of us, in fact, In
the actual development of bowling un
der the new order of things. There are
in Chicago now fifty or sixty bowling
establishments on ground floors; there
are dosena of bowling establishments
there on upper floors.
"Here, Including those of private
clubs, we have a considerable number
ot bowling places on the ground floor,
bat M yet only fw, perfcapa sot so
msny as half a dozen of upper floor.
But we have some fine establishments
for bowling above tht ground. In
Brooklyn there has been opened lately
nn establishments with six alleys on
the second . floor, and eight alleys on
the third floor. The latest Upper-floor
bowling establishment, one with ten
alleys In n row, hits Just been opened
in tills borough, on the fifth floor of n
business building In the hotel and
theatre district of Broadway. You seo

Mornl Truths From Mr. VFn.
This Is nn old story of the Chinese
Minister, Wit Ting-Fang, In a new
form. A reporter had beeu commis
sioned by his newspaper to Interview
Mr. Wil, Following his usual artless
Chinese custom Mr. Wu asked the re
porter how much salary he received.
"One hundred and llfty dlolnrs a
week," ho answered.
The familiar comment was at once
forthcoming. "It Is too much. It Is
altogether too much. You are not
worth more than a week."
Koine time afterward, while talking
with other newspaper men, the Minis
ter len riled that the reporter had de
ceived him, and that Instead of re
ceiving $l."il a week he was paid not
more than S(l(). Accordingly the next
time he called at tho Chinese legation
In search of Information Mr. Wu thus
dismissed him:
"You lied to me about your salary.
If you will lie about such n thing ns
that you will lie about anything. I
do not trust you. I have nothing to
say to you. I want to revise my for
mer estimate of your vflltie. Iustead
of being worth 'J5 a week you nre not
worth anything, sir." Youth's Com

The multlinnsted schooner Is devel
oping Into nn Important factor in tho
ocean carrying trade. Originally a two
masted craft, with fore and aft sails,
it has evolved by regular steps of pro
gression Into a seven-masted vessel
whose sails can be all handled from
tho deck. Two purposes nre thus se
cured. First, tho element of snfoty In
the navigation of tho vessel Is In
creased, ns tho sail area may be re
duced without difficulty or danger
whenever desired and under liny
weather conditions, and without ar
resting her headway. Secondly, tho rig
Is the most economical of all to oper
ate. The sail area Is divided up so
thnt a comparatively small crew can
handle the canvas, nnd reef and tin
reef, furl nnd unfurl, without leaving
tho deck. Tho latter feature makes
the multimasted schooner the . most
profitable of all classes of ocean car
riers. Small Men For the Army,
A surgeon of the British army who
has had much experience In passing
recruits argues for little men for fight
ing purposes, believing that the Idea
Is old and obsolete that a man cannot
be a good and efficient soldier unless
be measures a certain number of feet
and Inches In height. In modern war
fare, where tho Issue of every fight
Is usually decided at a distance, stat
ure counts for little nud Is rather a
disadvantage ' than otherwise. This
offloer therefore suggests tho reduc
ing to a minimum of five feet the
staudurd height of all recruits for
mounted Infantry, and light cavalry.

Why Spiders An Not Insert.
Tho spider Is not an Insect, though
probably nine people out of ten would
class It under this term. With scor
pions and mites spiders form a class
In tho animal kingdom known as
Arachnlda. This name Is derived
from a mythical personage colled
Arachne, the daughter of a purple dyer
of Lydla, who was fabled to have
challenged Minerva to a trial of
skill lu spinning. So Indignant was
the goddess at this act of boldness thnt
she forthwith transformed tho hap
less challenger Into a spider, presum
ably In order that sho might have the
best possible opportunity of practicing
tho art on which she prided herself
so much.
Spiders differ from Insects In five
main particulars. Their eyes are sim
ple Iustead of compound, tbey have
eight legs in place of six. tbey do not
pass through the metamorphoses
which aro characteristic of Insects,
they have no antennae and their
breathing Is accomplished by means of
organs which combine the functions
of lungs and gills, Instead of by tubes
pervading their bodies. These points
of distinction are sufficient to deter
mine the fact that It Is Impossible to
class spiders as Insects,
England's Old Common Field System.
A "Common Field" is quite distinct
from a "Common." It Is a fluid belong
ing to numerous owners. The land
consists of long narrow strips, perhaps
not more than ten yards wide and run
ning parallel with one another. What
are the exact rules of cultivation that
obtain in Keut to-day we do not know,
but of old it was usual to bare a regu
lar rotation, such as wheat one year,
barley or oats the second and fallow
the third. When the crops were har
vested, each member of the communi
ty getting bis or bee ebsre, all could
put In their cattle, which roamed over
the whole field, feeding on the stubble,
ttc. And this was termed the "right
of sack." The "Common Field" sys
tern was gradually done away with by
Statutes In the reigns of George III.

RURAL HYGIENE,
Hie POMlhle Inflnenr of the Connfr
Doctor oa I'oblle Health.
Prevention rather than cure is tho
great object of medlcol science to-day,
nnd while the city has Its peculiar
perils, so has the country. In a recent
essay In the New York Medical Hoe
ord, Pr. George M. Kober, of Washing
ton, V. V., said:
When we consider the fact that over
seventy per cent, of our population re
side lit rural districts, Hint the "bono
nnd sinew" of these are engaged III
agricultural pursuits, and Hint they do
not enjoy the benefits of enforced sani
tation by local health boards, we see
nt once the desirability or (lie family
physician extending useful suggestions
on henllhrul building sites and homes,
disposal of house wastes, the Import
ance of a pure water supply and
wholesome and properly cooked food.
As It Is now, the diet Is faulty, espccl
nlly the hot. biscuit nnd greasy fried
dishes, while wells and privies nre
often dangerous neighbor. The undue
prevnleneo of typhoid fever In rural
districts could be materially checked
by disinfecting excrete with three
times the volume of boiling water and
the adoption of the enrth closet sys
tem. This Is nil the more Important
since Infection I often spread through
the milk supply, and many of our ur
ban population contract disease In the
country during the summer months.
While prompt disinfection of the ex
creta I the only rntional method, we
should nlso make nn effort to get rid
of tho flies by prompt disposal of tho
horse manure In which they breed,
the abandonment of open privies and
surface pollution, removal of garbage
aud other fly breeding mntter.

the lights In the trolley cars of the

There are two reasons for It. line
Is for the protection of the car and
the other for protection of the pas
sengers. When the lights are on and
the cur Is nt a standstill the trolley
pole becomes n lightning rod. When
a car Is In motion, the electric current
which leaves tho power house and Is
carried along on the trolley wire,
passes down through n wire In the
trolley pole Into the motors of the car,
setting them In motion, nnd then
down through the wheels into the
rails, by which the current returns
to the power house. Tims the trol

ing on the lights has the same effect
j as putting the car lu motion, that is It
completes the circuit. J hat Is the
exact reason why the lights ore on
during a thunderstorm.
Khotild lightning strike a trolley

If this cur should be In motion or the

be a chance t nut the extra current of
the lightning's stroke would puss

harm. The principle Is the same its
that of a lightning rod, which carries
the electricity of n bolt of lightning
Into the ground. But when there Is
no connection the current of a bolt
of lightning would burn out the mo

would shatter the car and injure the

Ceinnstsra' Can.
When English commuters can't get
Iho accommodations that they want on
their trains going to and from their
homes and places of business, they
cluh together in an organization and
pay an extra sum to the railroad com
pany for the privilege of riding In a
special car. Kvery weekday the
members of the I.ythnm. Ht. Anne's

Blackpool, the Brighton of the Nortt

specially for them. These cars are
called tho eltrb train, Ihough flicy are
not coupled In one trnln, but Join
trains which leave at different notirs.
Tho Blackpool I.I lie. running be

place, always had Its cars filled In
summer with tourists, much to the In
convenience of business men and regu
lar travelers. Bo the first class sea
son ticket holders asked the Iiin
caslilre and Yorkshire ltnllway Co. If
belter nccninmodutlon could tint be
furnished, and In an effort to do away
with the trouble the company reserved
certain compartment In the railway
carriages for the regulars. But thi
didn't ifleaso the transients, and was
discontinued. Ho the regulars organ
ized vliMiiselves Into il club, which
was giiiirunti-cd to contain ot least 40
members, and which now contains !.
and then went to the railway coiiiany
with a definite' proposition. They
agreed to pay an extra fare if ft cer
tain number of miloon carriages should
be placed at their exclusive-disposal.
The company accepted the proposi

each sotting 85 persons. They are
fitted with lounges nnd armchairs.

Tin Nets Contain?"
tin -
7ht net iff cast, tht net It Ailed,
B-t whtt decs it contain?
The guesses of the men are stilted
At at the ropes they strain.
Tht c-tch is yet uncounted, and
The haul is yet unseen;
Excitement reigns on every hand
What will tht capiurt mean?
The net, with content yet concealed
Like our new Premium Lift,
Has prices that are unrepealed.
And therefore, yet unmisscd.
Conjecture will be very rife
To know what presents rare.
For children, and for man and wife
September first will bare.
Remember on that day to go
To grocer and persist
That upon you he should bestow
LION COFFEE'S newest List,
If he's without thenf; write to ue '
A twocent stamp inclose; .
You'll get it without further fun
The LION promptnese shows. ' '
