In Wiring Give Its Number Nm of
Road nd Tim of Arrival
When you telegraph a friend toe
next time you are going to iSt him
and tiiiit you'd be dt'HgliteJ to have
him meet you at tee train the next day
for heaveu's sake telegraph him intelli-
gently.
If the money irritations and disap-
pointments of the year were aggre-
gated for the United States in hope-
lessly unintelligible telegrams of this
kind the average political economist
would have a fit When the average
person in the email city or town de-
cides on the jump to go to see a friend
fa the city and decides to telegraph
that friend what train to meet he be-
come? an unconscious imbecile.
Will leav for Chicago tonight on 8:10
train. Meet roe. ; "
This Is the test of a ten word mes-
sage which I received the other night
from a friend in an Ohio city. He had
started for Chicago before the tele-
gram was received by me and while I
wanted immensely to meet him at the
station instead of making the least ef-
fort to do so I took It out in swearing.
In sending a telegram announcing an
arrival the name of the road and the
train number are the two absolute es-
sentials. It will be a help to the recip-
ient of the message In most cases if
the time of the arrival of the train be
given also. Frequently as between the
two stations Involved In such a mes-
sage a difference of one hour in stand-
ard time otherwise might confuse. But
as between the number of the train
and the numerals in the hour of ar-
rival the telegrapher has a chance of
error and In writing the message
these two sets of numerals should be
separated by the name of the road.
Taking the ten word message as the
standard of length then any person
g.ing anywhere from any station on
any railroad may use the one Get form
of telegraphic announcement of ar-
rival: Arrive No. 5. Lake Bhore. due tt o'clock
Monday morning.
Ordinarily no possible further Infor-
mation Is necessary In the greatest
railway center in America. The train
number is unchangeable on Its own
system. Any railway employee any-
where will Identify the train In a mo-
ment If the recipient of the telegram
wishes to know whether the train is
on time before he starts to the station.
he can learn In a moment oveO the tel-
ephone by asking about No. 5 and in
the query he will have the readier re-
sponse for the reason that his inform-
ant will be grateful for the inquirer's
succinct knowledge of train operations.

A PAPER OF PINS
IMna were Introduced In the sis
teenth century.
Then thoy were costly and highly
prized as gifts. s
A paper of pins was more acceptable
than a bouquet
An act was passed In 1543 making it
Illegal to charge more than eightpence
thousand for metal pins.
Persons of quality often used pins
made of boxwood bone and silver
while the poor put up with wooden
skewers.
In those day husbands were often
surprised at the great amount of mon
cy that went for plnsj hence the term
"pin money."
Not so many years ago the frugal
American housewife was wont to teacb
pin economy teaching her children

pick It up all the day youll have good
luck." Philadelphia Record.
Th Indirect Method.
Homemade Ice cream was a r7-lar
Item on the bill. of fare at' TTUlSe's
house and while he liked the cream he
drev the line at turning the freezer.
One day when his mother returned
home she was agreeably surprised to
find him working at the crank as if hU
life depended oa It
"I don't see how you got him to turn
the Ice cream free" she said to her
husband. "I offered him a dime to do
it and he Juft laughed at me."
"Yon uidn't go about it the right
way my dear" replied her husband.
"I bet him a nickel he couldn't turn it
for half an hour." Harper's Weekly.
A Dog's Jealousy.
Dana Is a huge St Bernard who has
his own Ideas as to bis importance.
Whenever he Wishes' to attract atten-
tion he knocks his water pail over and
then rolls It around growling at it and
making a great fuss. Then he puts
his head In and throws the pall high
In the air batting at it with his paws
as it conies down. If this does not
have the desired effect he picks up
the pail by the handle and.takes it into
the barn where the noise Is increased
by far owing to the wooden floor. This
performance is given whenever the
horse is petted or when strangers come
to the house. Chicago Tribute.
Greenwich Cbervi3ry.
In the year 1CT5 King Charles II. of
England founded the royal observatory
at Greenwich In order vhat astronom-

the assistance of sailors. The history
of the observatory has been the his-
tory of chronology and of this practi-
cal side of astronomy. Its work and
Its standards have become distinctly

this boy looked up at the birds and
he was a bad boy and he thought it
