Better Times.
_prmee
The Augusta Chronicle says
~that othe tendency onT every
one hand is to proclaim - better times
oand thus Lelp the good work
along. The belief 1s general that
the pendulum has swung to its
~limit in the direction of adversity
mark of, prosperity. Let every-
body shove, shoulder to shoulder,
and swing it high.� That is the
- away to talk. Times depend very
larcely upon how people talk
about them. Thereisa familiar
story sbout & man having been
placed ona table and made to
belieye that one of his arteries
nad been cut, a flow of water
heing arrapged at the same time
so that tne sound of its dropping
~ persuaded him that it was the
dropping of his blood. The
story continues that the man
grew weaker and weaker until Le
died. There are other stories of
men in pertect health having
gone home and gone to bed, the
result of being told by one friend
rafter another, according to pre-
armngement, how bad _ they
looked. itis largely so in busi-
mass. It may not be that if, in
bad times, everybody woud
Insist that times were good they
would be good, but they would
- oanquestiony bly be better; and it
is certain thatif in good times
everybody should unite and say
that tiaes are bad they would
speedily get bad. Indeed, one of
the potent agencies in making
times hard within the past few
years has been the universal
lamentation about how hard they
were. lhe tendency of. calamity
howling is bad in eyery way.
Business is at present improving
beyond a question, and every-
body can hasten the return of
~prosperity Happily this can be
done without putting any work
non the imagination."Chariotte

A Practical Test.
Dom Pedro, the last emperor
- ~~ ~of Brazil, was a man of practica:
turn of mind, as the following
story told of him by a Spanish
newspaper well illustrates :
He once gave an audience to a

show hime new sppliance for
stopping railway engines. The
@mperor was pleased with the|
Tshall have it covpled to my
saloon car aud start. When
going at full speed I will. give
the signal to stop, and then we
shall see how your invention
works.� ane :
At the appointed time all was
in readiness. The emperor en-
tered his carriage, the youve
inventor mounted his engite, and
on they sped for several miles as
fast as they could go. There
came no signal, and the engineer
began to tear that the emperor
had fallen asleep. Suddenly the
engine came to a sharp curve
around the edge of a c.iff, when,
to his horror, on the tracg direct-
Jy ahead of them the engineer
saw a huge bouider.
He had just sufficient presence
of mind to turn tho crank of his
bruke and pull the engine up
within'a couple of vards of the
fatal block.
Here the emperor put his head
out of his car windcw and de-
manded to knowT the cause of the
sudden stoppage. The engineer
pointed to the rock, and, much to
his surprise Dom Pedro, began
to laugh.
oPush it on one side and go
on,� he said calmly.
The engineer obeyed, and
kicking the ~stone, was still
further astonjshed to see it
tumble into dust before him.
It was nothing more nor less
than a block of starch which the
emperur had had made and
placed on the rails the night
before."HarperTs sound Table.

Cost of Stopplag and Starting Trolley
Cara
There is ou old adage to the
effect that what is worth doing at
all ig worth doing well. Because
we cannot see the force that pro-
pels the trolley car we are apt to
torget that the humble duiies of
the motorman require 1nteili-
gence. It Jooks as if he juat
turned a handle and that was the
end of it, but the real truth of the
matter is something very different.
It takes just as much electric
power to start a car as it would
animal power, and 1t requires less
current to keep the car moving
than to start it, so that a great
number of starts and stops means
a large coosumption of energy.

Below are Norfolk prices of cotton
and peanuts for yesterday, as furnished
the actual figures for these twoT by Cobb Bros. & Commission� Mer-
cases are given. it is shown
that the cost of one stop on each
trip of acar during @ year on a
15 car line may amount to $70, or
to $467 for a 100 car road; so that
ifthese figures are multiplied by
two stops at each crossing on &
road cperating long lines the
large cost is eviaeut, Carefui
handling of the controller will
gave over $1,000 a year on a 15
car line, and $7,000 per year on &
100 car road. ~he difference
between a careful motorman, who
has been well instructed, and a
cereless One may amount to from
3 to 8 per cent. of the total energy
consumed. It is perfectly safe,
according to its authority, to eay
that 10 per cent. of the energy
~oan be saved by more careful
handling of the controller, while
cent. could be saved without
doubt. The maxim of every
motorman should be: oUse the
break as little as possible and
drift as much as possible.� The
employment of skilled motormen
capable of understanding the
mechanism they handle would
result in a saving to the trolley
companies, even a higher ealary
were paid the men, and at the
samé time add much comfort to

corporation tax.
