TIE WRONG PEW

Au9uot'~ own good sense told him
that the advice of Jonas was not good.
But he had made many mistakes OF
late. and was just now inclined to take
anybody's Judgment i'll place of his own.
All that was proud and gcmtlcmanly
in him rchelled ut the thought of creep
ing into another mans house i'll the
night. ModcSty is doubtless IL virtue.
but it Is Il virtue responsible for many

could have persuaded him to make his

But back of Jonas judgment was that

He wanted to live and to have other,

action. There was something of chiv-
alary i'll the proposal of Jonas, ii spice
of adventure that made him approve ii

The more August thought of it, and
the nearer he was to its execution, the
more did he dislike it. But have oft

temperament, such as young Wehle's

TEE>PA>>EK on \ RAILWAY. An
Indian paper. the Pioneer. of October
the 2}d, SAYS: Zone day last week IL
.icmader of pnintSmcn at Sutna Station
WAS going along 10y the side of the rails
to let down train out of the station,
when he was seen to Stagger wildly
about for IL few moments. and then fall
down close to the rails just as the train
was coming ON. AS soon as the train
had passed he WAS seen lying quite still
in the same place, and everyone of
courS,. supposed he had been killed by
il blow from some part of the engine.
Two or three men accordingly came
running up. but found the jrmadar
alive, PROSTATE on the ballast. with an
enormous cobra twinrd about his legs.
Fortunately one of the men had stick
and began hitting AT the cobra with all
his might. regardless of the bare shirt
of the poor iemadar. The snake was
finally killed, and then the iemadar
picked himself up, rather ruetully, and
explained the whole affair. 1t appear
ed that i'll getting ont of the way of the
train he trod on the snake. and in try
ing to dodge the snake he tripped over
the wire that works the distant signal,
and rolled back toward the tram III
company with the Ncncmnu> reptile.
The latter was probably frightened at
the train. and writhcd about the mans
legs for protection: the man himself
lay It's still and flat as possible, and had
the satisfaction of seeing the projecting
part of the COW catcher pass about an
inch above his nose. His feelings may
he better imagined than described when
he found himself saved from both pellls
uncrllshcd and unhitten, and none the
worse for the adventure, saving for the
fright and Il hearty belaboring about
the legs with stout bamboo. The
above may be relied on
