'Countess of Dufferin", First Locomotive to Reads Winnipeg JHov Can I? The sixty yeaii that have passed since the Canadian Pacific Rail- way Company was given a charter to build the transcontinental line, on February 15, 1881, have been featured by outstanding advances in every branch of railroading. In no way, however are these advance- ments more obvious than in loconictives. Gone are the funnel smoke- stacks and the toy-like appearance of the old wood-burners. The sleek, powerful locomotives of today have speeded up schedules, they pull longer trains, and they can travel many miles without shop attention. The most famous is the "Countess cf Dufferin", first loco- motive to reach Winnipeg. It was taken there en a barge in 1877 and now stands in a Winnipeg park as a moument to the early days. It was built in 1872, weighed 64,500 pounds and was 51 feet six inches long. Locomotive No. 34, seen above at Fernie, B.C., dates back to 1882. Its weight was 98,000 pounds and it had a tractive effort cf 14,000 pounds. These are puny engines compared to the giants of today, the new 2800 series which weigh 36(5,000 pouds and have a tractive effort of 45,200 pounds and the new 5900 series, largest in the British Elmpire. which weigh 447,000 pounds and have a tractive effort of 78,00ft pounda. At the end of 18S2 the company had 146 locomotives; now it own* 1,767. â€" CP.H^ Photo. This Early Sleeping Car Doesn't Look Very Comfortable Moderns wh.j mourn so loudly for the "good old days' never rode from Montreal to Vancouver in the early sleeping car, illustrated above. Once the jewel of perfection and delight, it certainly looks antiquated according to modern standard, when compared to the newer model with electric lighting, air conditioning, padded seats, partitions between the berths for which the railroad supplies the bedding and improved in evei-y way. â€" C.P.R.

He was filled with for- b<>dings. which increased when a XMira'chute was stiapped en to him and he was given careful instructions regarding its usa The stunt man also wore a para- chute, and when he put a bsavy leather coat on over it the re- porter asked timidly, "How can you use the parachute with that coat on?" "Oh," replied the pilot, non- chalantly, "I'd have plenty of time to take the ccat off when we fell." They went up and flew for several minutes, until, feeling warm, the stunt man began to remove his coat. "Hot, isn't it?" he sai, genially, but there was no reply. The re- porter had jumped overboard. As they say on the Con- tinent, it'* a wise child who knows his own Fatherland. The irate parent stormed up and down the loom before the nervous looking young man. "What!" he shouted. "You have the nerve to come to my office to ask for my daughter's hand? I might as well tell you that voii could have saved yourself the journey." The suitor sighed wearily. "Well, that's all right," he i^aid. "You see, I had aiiotlu-r message to deliver in the sain^ buildings." â€" â€" "Which side of an apple pi* is the left side?" "The part that isn't eat- en." Two men were sentenced by a ••If -appointed court to be hang- ed for horse-stealing. The place ••lected for the execution was a tr«st!e bridge spanning a river. Tht first uoose was insecurely ti«d and th« piisousi dropped into the river. Ha swam to shora and made good his escape. As they were adjusting the rope for the • remaining prisoner, the lat- ter drawled: "Say, peu-ds, make sure of the knot, this time, will yer, 'cause I can't swim." â€" o â€" "When does a book become a classic?"

In pregnancy and lactation the teeth often become tender and affected with caries. The cause is the drain on calcium by the growing infant within the mo- ther's womb. The remedy is tha administration of vitamin D, found plentifully in butter fat and cod-liver oil. A certain number of teeth that have ached a little, settle down, take on a bluish colour and may be somewhat tender. These teet'n ai-e dead and are a menace to health. Their root* will often prove to be stinking. They spread infection to near and distant parts of the body causing ery- thema, arthritis and other infec- tions. Must Extract Dead Teeth Cancer of the antrum or sar- coma of the bony margin of the jaw sometimes follows neglect of dead teeth. Other resulting infecuons from dead teeth are: osteomyelitis and necrosis of the jaws, cellulitis of the neck and neuralgia of the third nerve. Many medical condi- tions of the body will cause ten- derness of the teeth, such for ex- ample, as scurvy, anaemia and lukaemja. Syphilis, malaria, dia- betes and tuberculosis have an ill- effect on the teeth. Hysteria, mi- graine and many other neuroses are ofieii accentuated by tender teeth. Many acute illnesses and the recovery therefrom, are^ac- coiiipanied by dental aclung. A too high filling, large metai fill- ing; injury, small tooth-bristles, fiah bones or other objects lodged between the teeih, grinding of the teeth at night and the occu- pational abrasions of cuS>blers, seamstresses, and players of wind instruments â€" all these may re- sult in tendernoes. For the safety of the subject, dead teeth should, as a rule, be extracted. Mere Male Plays Part of Stewardess Passengers on a Trani-Canada Air Lines flight out of Toronto recently were surprised to find a male steward serving their mea: and supplying their require- ments while aloft. It was an in- voluntary innovation as far as T.C.A. was concerned. Icy reads following a storm delayed the cab carrying the stewardess to Malton Airport. Departure of the plane could not be held up and the air- port passen^r agent toolc her place. Air line stewards are not un- commcn. The British Overseas Airways Corporation and the Pan American employ them, as well as one or two domestic United States lines. Whot Science Is Doing C.P.R.

The gasoline used was the or- dinary motor fuel, e.xcept that it contained no lead or other spec- ial treatments. White rats were used in tliis ex- periment and they reacted amaz- ingly under glass bell jars in- stead of the ordinary form of mask. The animals went "under" in 4 to 7 minutes. They came out of the anaes- thetic in about the same length of time and showed not the slight- aat signs of nausea or other ill effects.

The Canadian Pacific Railway Company celebrated Wie diamond jubilee of its birth in mid-Feb- ruarj-, ccmpleting si-t decades of public service during which time it developed into the world's greatest privately owned trana- portatioii system, a closely knit organization with transportation and communication services or affiliations throughout the world. Has Steamships, Hotelsi Too The Canaiiian Pacific Railway now has 17,16i) miles of line, 5a ocean, coastal and lake steam-' ships, a cross-countiy chain of hotels and stunmer camps and lodges, 1,767 locomotives and 82,- 714 piecus of rolling stock and stations, shops and other proper- ty and equipment representing an investment of more than one billion dolars. For 60 years the Dominion of Canada and the Canadian Pacific Railway have aided and shared in each other's development. In this period the population of Canada increased from 4,324,810 to an estimated 11,315,000 while the total of the export and import trade increas- ed from 5174,433,030 to Ji- 260,904,000 in i'JZ'J, the last year of record. On Februaty 13, 1881, the Do- minion Government, worn out by the hopelessness of its own ef- forts to build a transcontinental railway and fearful that Confed- eration would crash unless lines of communication were opened bo tlie Pacific Ocean, passed an act granting a charteiT which empow- ered a private syndicate to build the line within two years. Two days later the Canadian Railway Company was duly organized with George Stephen, later Lord Mount Stephen, president, Duncan Mc- Intyre, as vice-president and R. B. Angus "and J. J. Hill on the ex- ecutive committee. Line Completed in 1885 The need for a trans-continent- al railway had become obvious at the time of Confederation in 1867 and British Columbia en- tered Confederation in 1872 on the promise that rail connection would be established. This was easier said than done, however. In ten years of governmental ef- fort only 713 miles of line had bean built or was under consti'uc- tion and it covered only the eas- ier sections because plans had been too indefinite for anything realiy worthwhile to be accom- plished. Tha scratttred bits of lino which had been completed were laid down with a view to us- ing the United States of a steam- ffe up to Ogden's I Old-Tmers will tell you that, for rolling -your-own, Ogden's Is a name to tie to for a really satisfying smoke.
