happened to bn passing, stopped and
asked him the cause ef his grief.

“Ah. never mind,” said the kind old
soul, os she took her purse out of het

The child Instantly etopjted bit
howling and took the jtenny In bit
grimy hand. The old woman passed
on, but she had not gone far when she
heard howls louder than ever coming
from the boy. Retracing her step*
she asked the reason of his renewed
lamentations.

United States. Europe uses only half
as many pencils a year. This Is the
statement of Lothar W. Faber, one of
the leading pencil makers of the
world. Why should the American use
four times as many pencils as the
European? Mr. Faber says the prime
reason Is waste.
The American
throws away a pencil when it Is only

In the face of these increases, freight rates on the Union
Pacific System during the tame time have increased only 32
3-i c per rent and passenger fares 35 3-10 per cent.
In 1913 we received for hauling a ton of freight one mile
9.7 mill«; for hauling a passenger one mile, 2 Me. In 1923,
these rate« were 1.285 and 3.035 reapectlvely. The 1923 freight
rate repreenta a reduction of about 11 per cent under 1921 and
passenger fares about 8 par cent under 1921.
In order to earn enough groe* revenue to purchase a pint of
Ink, It was neceeeary for ua to haul on» ’ op of freight 42 milea;
for a croea tie. 65 miles; a hand lantern. 91 miles: one freight

To pay for a day of track labor It la neceeeary to haul one
