REFUGEES OF
SIBERIA ARE
POORLY FED
TOKIO. Dec I. Many refuge" - are
living and raising poultry or keeping
mows in trains in Siberia according
to Shinryo Tanaka a councillor in
the Japanese railway hoard, who has
been travelling in Siberia on an inves
tigation of railroads He said
As one travels westward in Siberia
train refugees are found in greater
numbers. They have converted rail
way compartments into quite comfort
able homes which are provided with
all the necessary household requisites.
Although the rolling stock is by no
means plentiful the authorities are
not so heartless as to drive away
these poor people from their newly
occupied abodes and they are allowed
to live in the trains.
“Kvery station swarms with dirty,
ragged beggars. They invade passen
ger trains and sometime- they follow
their intended victims over several
stations until their solicitations are
satisfied.”

Undertaker Invented Phone.
Inventors who have new Ideas which
are foreign to their vocations or lines
of business may derive encourage
ment from the fact that the inventor
of the first practical system of auto
matic telephony was Altnon B. Strow
ger of Kansas City, who took out »
patent In lssp. The Inventor of the
Strowger system was an undertaker
who was in no way connected with
electrical engineering or with any
telephone enterprise.
The Great Test.
Self-control is an easy matter when
we are alone, says New Success Maga
zine. But tin* moment our lives are
thrown in with others, then comes the
struggle. To maintain our equanimity,
to restrain the sharp retort, the impa
tient exclamation, to get along smooth
ly with disagreeable people, without
friction or jarring—this is the great
life test. This is what builds charac
ter, wlmt tests manhood or woman
hood, what makes the idea! employee.
Two Discoveries.
A long time ag". a keen observer of
human nature put on record his dis
covery that a small borrower never
leaves the doorway of a bank without
looking one way and walking the oth
: er. A rival of this observer has just
turned up. His conclusion, after years
of patient observation, is that one nev
er secs a small hoy and a brass hand
moving in opposite directions.—Chris
