Over exertion, too long con tinned
exercise, sitting in draft for example,
cooling off when overheated, indeed
anything that tends to check suddenly
the surface circulation, will produce
that wearied, sore feeling recognized as
soreness and stiffness. The best treat
ment and quickest is to start up ciiou
lation by rubbing the sore or stiff part
with a soft but reasonably rough sub
stanoe, like a crash or Turkish towel,
and apply St. Jacobs Oil froely with

NOW RUNNiNG TRAINS ;
Henry At. Flagler Has Line to
Key West Already Partly
Completed.
CONCRETE ARCHES ABE USED.
Novel Engineering Peat Is Described
as the Most Eemarkable in
the World. .
The most remarkable railroad In the
world, which Henry M. Tlatrler Is build
ing on concrete arches through the shal
low waters of the ocean alone the a-ar-
land of palm groves that cover the keys
soutn or Florida, is now In operation
for a distance of eighty-one miles to
Knight's Key, and regular trains are
running over it Through sleeping cars
will be provided from New York and
Chicago, and they ultimately will be
carried across on a- ferry from Key
West to Havana, making the distance
In six hours. The railway Is more than
half done, and, as the present terminus
at Knight's Key has all the facilities
for handling the traffic Mr. Flakier
decided to place the completed portion
in operation and have it earninz the
expense of maintenance, at least, while
the remainder of the track Is finished to
Key West Practically 80 Der cent of
all the construction work is done and
everything will be ready for throueh
trains to Havana by the opening of the
tourist season next winter.
Knight's Key. the wesent terminus
of the Flagler system, Is 109 miles
south of Miami, forty-seven miles north
of Key West and 115 miles north of
Havana. The road between Miami and
Knight's Key is built tenty-elght miles
upon the main land of Florida and
eighty-one miles across and between
forty-two keys. For nearly one-half of
tne distance the railway track passes
over the water on concrete arches.
whose foundations rest upon the bottom
'Of the sea.
At the town of nomestead. twenty-
eight miles south of Miami, the track
leaves the continent of North America
and starts upon Its way over the ocean.
Seventeen miles south of that point it
reaches Key Largo, the largest of the
keys, which is fifteen miles long, and
from there Jumps from key to key by
means of massive masonry and em
bankments of cement and coral rock.
In crossing the deeper channels Beveral
drawbridges have been provided to per
mit of the passage of vessels. The In
tervening water between the forty-two
keys varies In width from a few hun
dred feet to two miles or more, and
In depth from a few Inches to thirty
feet. The embankments are rip-rapped
with rock to prevent washing, and are
defended by piles and every other de
vice that the engineers could Invent
to protect the roadway from the at
tacks of the water, which Is sometimes
stirrea up into great violence by the
force of the wind. . The track Is thirty
one feet above high water, so that the
passengers in the railway trains may
sit In the windows of Pullman..cars in
serenity and have an opportunity of
seeing how the Atlantic Ocean look
In a gale. -
THOSE CONCRETE HOUSES.
Eminent Philanthropist Will Build
City of Edison Eomes.
Working together, Thomas A. Edison,
wizard of East Orange, N. J., and
Henry Phlpps, a New York millionaire,
believe they can solve the tenement
house problem.
They plan to do this by erecting ai
entire city of concrete houses, Mr. Edi
son having perfected plans recently
whereby, he says, he can build within
12 hours and at a cost of from (1,000 to
$1,200 a beautiful nine-room house,
suitable for two families. Each apart
ment of these double houses can be
rented profitably at 17.60 a month, ac
cording to Mr. Edison, thus saving to
the working man now paying (10 a
month for a two-room home In the tene
ments, enough money each tnonth to
cover his carfare expenses to and from
his work.
Mr. Phlpps, who in 1005 gave (1,000,
000 for the erection of model tenements
In New York Oity, recently spent an
afternoon In Mr. Edison's laboratory at
East Orange, discussing with him the
possibilities of the cement or concrete
house. The steel manufacturer was ac
companied by a corps , . of architects,
builders and concrete experts, who
made a careful Investigation of the
Edison plana When they left they
were enthusiastic over Its possibilities.
Mr. Edison purposes to build these
houses by forcing a concrete mixture

"The New .York, New Haven and

very interesting experiment," writes
Broughton Brandenburg in the Techni
cal World Magazine, "which, strictly
speaking, Is hardly such any longer, as
Its efforts have been crowned with suc
cess from the beginning. The road cov
ers the lower half of New England
with an astounding network of lines,
and as a result of the opening of the
richer lands of the west and south the
men who had been tolling on the im
poverished New Englanl farms, small
and stony, forsook them, took their
families and left New England.
"The price of land declined until
there came to be many farms that
could be bought for a dollar an acre
and a last a great number that were
entirely abandoned. By reason of the
road carrying to and fro Italians who
bad landed lu New York and wished
to go to the cotton mills of Lowell or
the shoe shops of Lynn, etc., and Ital
ians who had landed In Boston anc"
wished to go to New York, the news of
these abandoned farms come to be
noised about among, the Italians and
they began to take them up.
"The men would work in the nearest
factory and the women and children
cultivate the ground. The Italian Is a
born irrigator, and now all along the
New Haven road can be seen garden
like estates that were once abandoned
by their previous owners. The road
was quick to see the trend of the Ital
ians and is bent on encouraging it It
Is probuble that a combined agricultur
al and Industrial population of Ital

Dream of Science Realised f
A dream of science, which has beei.
cherished for ages, has recently come
10 close to realization that the world
has bad a start, as it were. The arti
ficial production of life, at which ex
perimenters have aimed, almost since
men first entered into any extended
knowledge of the elements and of chem
Ica action, appears to have been all but
accomplished, and, while the man who
has conducted the experiments which
have shown such remarkable results,
makes no loud acclaim over his discov
ery, he points to the work he has done
tna we can but wonder at It.
