If the number of people daily enter

patched from any given station by train
1,977 trains, each conveying 600 per

The United States geographical sur

copper and printed from stone. The
cultural features, such as roads, rail
roads, cities, towns, houses, etc., as well

More matches are used in the United
Kingdom than in any other one coun
try in the world. It has been estimated
that English people use an average of
eight matches each person per day, and
annually over 1,700,000,000,000 are
burned. The largest match factory la
in Austria, and each year it uses 22,000
pounds of phosphorus, turns out 2,500,
000,000,000 matches, and for the boxes
alone 160,000 feet of wood are used.
One pound a day is said to be the most
that an organ grinder ever takes, while,
with some exceptions, five shillings
is about the least, so that a London or
gan grinder may be regarded as a fair
ly prosperous man. An organ can be
hired from the makers for one shil
ling sixpence a day, while the price of a
new organ is £ 25. The cost of setting

pounds, and, since novelty is essentiaL, j
this is a frequent source of expense. j
If you wish to make a fountain pen,
take two ordinary steel pens of the
same pattern and insert them in the
common holder. The inner pen will be
the writing pen. Between this and the
outer pen will be held a supply of ink,
when they are once dipped into the ink
stand, that will last to write several
pages of manuscript. It is not neces
sary that the points of the two pens j
should be very near together, but if j
the flow of ink is not rapid enough,
the points may be brought nearer by a j
bit of thread or a minute rubber band. ■

HABITS OF SPEECH.
Farnlty liiitigiiass Used In Child- ,
hood I« Hard to Correct In
After 1,1 fe.
“Why do educated parents allow j
their children to contract habits of un- j
grammatical speech that will have to be !
conquered in after-life?” asked a spin- ;
ster of a mother.
“Because they hate to worry the poor
little things about such matters when
they are young and should be care free.
It seems cruel to be all the'time cor
recting them and keeping them on their
good behavior. They will have to learn
the rules of our dreadful language all
too soon as it is.”
"Yes,” sayd the spinster, “and in ad
dition to learning to speak properly
‘.hey will have to unlearn the tricks of
speech in which they have been allowed
t« indulge all their little lives. I know,”
laughing, “that there is much ridicule
of ‘old maids’ children,’ but I believe
that my theory in this case is correct.
Ir is a positive unkindness to let your
child double his negatives and say f
‘ain’t,,’ when several years from now he
will be harshly reproved for such
lapses. The child must learn to talk,
anyway, and is it. not. as easy to teach j
him to say ‘It is i,’ as ‘It’s me?’ And is j
it not as simple for the little tongue tc j
n>(» 1 saw it, as i scru 11. i i iuvc uauv
falk, and should riot correct a child for
his mispronunciation of hard words,
As he grows older he will himself see
his inislakes in that line and change
them. But I insist that it is i parent's
duty to make the difficult path to gram
matical speech as easy as possible by j
never allowing the little ones to stray j
from it in the beginning."—Harper’s !

his victim had been a man the sentence

is another curious law. If a person j

punistnilent to the offender is fixed by 1
the number of days his victim has to

only to goods purchased in the
open market, which have not
been tampered with in any way.
Dr. Miles’ remedies cure by

‘‘I have suffered for 25 years with
s“vere pains in my head, heart and
back, and have tried everything t
could get and could not find any relief
until 1 got a box of Dr. Miles’ Anti
Pain Pills. I suffered as long as 12
hours at a time with such severe
pains that I feared 1 would lose my
mind. The Anti-Pain Pills gave me
relief in from 10 to 20 minutes. I do
not have to use Morphine any more.
