Freight traffic on the Western lines has increased so much of late that it has be- come very difficult to insure trustworthy | means of communication between the en- gine and caboose when they are separated by thirty or forty loaded freight cars. Many of the double-header trains hauled daily out of Chicago and Kansas City and other Western points are so long that the rear of the train cannot be seen from the engine when rounding long curves or as- cending steep grades. A railway paper tells of some interesting efforts to over- come such obstacles: »f 'a new suit and want to buy be ) hear of this opportunity. The cheviots and sergés—fabrics ill be in fashion as long as the bes round—and not a single them has any fault of any kind mes the wheels must be oiled with small lots and odd sizes.

The heliograph, it is conceded, may work on the plains, where the vision Is not obstructed except by oc- casional blizzards, but for mountain sinu- osities the trainmen are stated to prefer the far-reaching ‘phone. Still better, per- haps, might be a:parrow gauge track on top of the train, on which a light trolley car could rapldly convey the train of- siclals in their business trips between rear and front ends. ““This is w hat I call 4 gilt-edged invest- ment,” sald the persuasive agent. “Yes,' answered Farmer Corntossel.
