As busy with old memories, " e.,
She dreams her dreams Of what hrs been,
And knits her old time fancies in.
She thinks Of those who long ago
Went out across the threshold low,
How many times her listening ear
Has thought familiar footsteps near,
And she has started up to find
A dead Leaf rustling in the wind.
But never Us of those who lie
Beneath the wide and tender sky,
With folded hands on quiet breast,
All wrapped about with peace and rest,

The green earth with her. None are dead.

Above the graves where summer WeaVeS

She sees them all. Not grass nor mold
Can hide the ones she loved of old.

What matter ii your hair is gray?

Her children play in happy glee,
And they tired and sleepy grow
She sings some song OF long ago,
And on her loving mother breast
She rocks her little ones to rest.

Your dreams in with your stitches gray,

A haunted world from ours apart;
The years that turned your tresses gray
Have given you back your youth to-day.

This depot is reached by circle of three
tracks sweeping from the main roadway
four-ffths of a mile long, and the diameter
of the circle they describe is 600 feet. All
trains will enter this circle heading west,
and depart from the depot heading east.
Three trains can be landing or receiving
passengers in front of the depot at the
same time, the entire tracks being foored
over, and no matter in what direction the
trains may come or go, they can be moved
without confusion, delay or danger
Seventeen additional sidings have been
constructed, connected with this circle, of a
length OF 1000 feet each, upon which wait
ing trains can be run and remain with en-
gines attached, until the time arrives for
them to enter upon the circle, receive their
passengers, and depart for destination.
This arrangement of tracks and sidings is
novel, and affords facilities for the transac-
ton, without detention or confusion, of an
almost unlimited passenger business.
