A Foolish FELLOW The Bible aye
"He dieth as the fool dieth!" The text
was faithfully exemplihed last week on the

that one couldn't run a certain distance
without being overtaken by the train. The
run began but the locomotive won. and the
better was killed. But why not arrest his
companions for manslaughtef.--Sunday
