Show flow Car Ar Coopted. This operation must, according to tb most roads, tie iierformed regulations Ify the aid of a short stick; Ljut disregarding the regulation, partly to save time and partly oecause of fear of the .ridicule that would be called nut ly the "cxlijbition of a lack of dexterity, the average brakepan uses his lingers- - Hu must lift the Jink and hold it horizontally until tt end enters tlie ojiening, and then withdraw bis hand before tlie heavy drawbars jcoine together. A delay of a fraction of a second would crush tlie hand or finger ns upder a trip hammer. And in point of fact tins delay tbies, fop varjous reasons, frequently happen, and the number of train men with wounded hands to be found in every large freight yard is sad evidence of the fact; But again, assuming that this part of the operation is accomplished in safety, there is another nnd worse danger in tlie ' possibility of lining cruslicd bodily. Cars are built with projecting timbers on their .ends at or near tlie center, for the ,purpose of keeping the main body of each car .twelve or fifteen inclies from its neighbor, but pars of dissimilar pattern sometimes meet in such a way that the projections on oho lap pass those on tlie other,, and the room afford space which should for the man to stand, In safety is not maintained. If tho brakeman, in tho darkness of night or tlio hurry of his work, fails to note tho peculiarities of the cars, he Is mercilessly crushed; tho ponderous .vehicles often banging together with a force of many tons. A constant danger in coupling and uncoupling is tho liability to cn Ah ifio feet hi angles in tlie traclf. Freight conductors are jieculiarly Jiablo to this, ns tho duty of uncoupling .'pulling out tho coupling pin) generally devolves upon them, and must IsrHlone while the train Is in motion. Walking rapidjv along, in the dark, with tlie right hand holding a lantern and grasping the car, while .the left Is tugging at pin which sticks, involves perplexities wherein a moments hesitation may provo fatal. B. B. Adams, Jr., In Scrjb ner's Magazino, r -- , Pressing the Hair la Japan. The manner of wearing tho hair In Japan is so elaborate that a Jupanoso woman cannot do up her own lmir, but Is obliged to go to one of these establishments. It is quite interesting to watch tliis operation. The woman scats herself on the floor before a round minor mado of polislied metal, find the hair dresser sets to work. It is really quite a formidable affair, as tlm woman is apt to le very critical and insists on each hair bo lug arranged just so. Tlie whole arrangement may be described as a kind of largo bow knot, and beeswax enters ' largely into the material used for the dressing. This has the effect of making tlie hair very stiff nnd shiny. The reason Chat tho peculiar pillow is so much used is so that the hair may not be wliilo asleep. This pillow is a block of wood with a notch cut in it for the back of tho nedk to rest in. You see thnt even out here woman is the same, and just as muejh a slave to fashion and vanity as in ourown yet one tiling must bo said in rpntry, favor of the- Japanese women that cannot lie said of our countrywomen, and that is that they do not, like them po&r, misguided fools that they are ruin their health by corsets and tight Lacing. Euroot pean influence has laid the good effect driving out tho horrid custom of black-cuin- g tho teeth and gilding the lips. Tho Japanese women are really beautiful ' when you onco get accustomed to their faces. The most of them have good though slight figures, but to me tho chief beauty Lay in the expression of tho eyes, wliich are as soft ana plaintive ns a doe's.

In a tide level canal it may be imagined that excavated earth would have been dumped into tlie sea and not placed on the sides as in railroads, and especially in this case, where tho Chagres river can rise fifty feet in a few hours, and where it rains every day. The French engineers did not carry their earth to the sea: heavy rains came and the river returned all tho excavations to their original location, only a little further down stream. The expense of excavation must again be paid. In some.places along the line tho debris has been washed back so quickly aa to partly bury the very machines which threw it out. Panama Cor.

The average daily production of 0 the Minneipdis mills approximate barrels of flour. Each barrel will produce 260 loaves of bread, loaves giving a total of 7,800,000 for a days production. Five persons will consume two loaves of bread daily, or each person will consume two fiths of one loaf. , At this rate 7,800.000 loves of bread would supply 19,500,000.
