sing all the time. You are living, think
ing, feeling human being in Gods good
\ world; and jnst'to be that is worth every-
| thing. Isn't it? It is worth everything
for me. Weshall get along. Just see how
large and strong my wrists are.'' 8
Vim could have clasped three such
wrists between his thumb and fore-fnger.
Railroad men are generous set. There
was the aid from the Brotherhood. There
were packages of groceries mysteriousIy
introduced within the front gate on dark
nights. express wagons unloading at the
back door, and rafting off before any
questions could be asked, young bachelors
bringing handkerchiefs to be hemmed and
rents to be darned, and then paying un-
heard of prices with an overwhelming cita-
tion of presidents. ~
About the date of the surprise party that
presented VIM with the wheel-chair,
some difficulty arose at the office in con.
nection with Mr.. Charlie Fordyce's
figures.
A firmly established kind of antagonism
seems to exist between figures and gentle
men OF Mr.. Fordyce's tastes and princi-
pies, in whatever station in life they move.
An investigation was entered upon, and
Mr.. Fordyce quietly disappeared.
The position was reserved until VIM
was able to come down on his artificial
limb and take the place. .s" -
Said old Mullins, baggage-smasher. sit
ting on the shady side of the depot one
Sunday afternoon of the following sum-
mer, and surrounded by respectful audi
ence of switch tenders, brakemen and oil
boys: II hain't nothin' against meetin's.
When we had the revival here two or
three years ago, used to attend meetin's
in the engine house regular, and when
Johnny O'Brine was singing, there is
gate that stands ajar' through his nose,
said I: Johnny, if you don't shut up, I'll
let streak of daylight through, you!''
But, after all, there amt anything that
goes farther towardske keeping fellew from
feeling that this world is just trunk full
o. flummery, sure to burst sooner or later
than it does to 60 up to Winn's,
and see how cheerful and contented he
and his little woman are.j
II tell you what tits boys, 'tisn't SO
much what we have or where we are in
this world that tells, as it's keeping kind
o. calm and cool, and being satisfied with
what we got."-Good Company.

ssThere, VIM Wright, you've tracked
your horrid boots over my kitchen floor!
Won't YOU ever learn what door mats are
made for?" cried Meb Wright, fastening
her sleeves before the open door OF the lit
tie sitting room. 81 90 detest these warm
sloppy February days. l wish when we
freeze up in November we needn't thaw
out until the first Of April. The mud and
the slop must be gone through in the
spring, anyway, and this freezing and
thawing, freezing and thawing, between
whiles is just exhausting - a M
VIM Wright, locomotive engineer. a
big fellow, not graceful; sat absently gaz-
ing into the narrow front yard, and drum
ming on the window ledge. He looked
tired.
Elm tired. too" thought Meb. ''It's a
hard, tiresome world, harder for working
women than for memo use in whining
over it, though. We must take life as it
comes"
Il don't believe you care much for me
nowadays Meb, said VIM bluntly.
Meb curled her lip. 1t seemed particu-
! larry ridiculous in VIM to talk sentiment
now, for he had tar streak obliquely
across his forehead, and wore coarse
clothes with imperfectly pressed seams and
ragged buttonholes. (
II wish you wouldn't drum on that sill
VIM, you know how annoying it isl
After half hour which Meb spent, fol
the most part, outside the little sitting
room, VIM said good bye, and started fol
the depot. Out to Plympton and bach
would make up his days TRIP.
Meb put on her pretty brown cashmert
with white lace and cardinal ribbon at he
throat. and cardinal loops in her hair, ant
took the chair by the window.
She heard the occasional slnsh OF wheels
through the melting sDow outside, or tn
thnd of rubber-shod feet through the wa
ter on the spongy ice, the ceaseless dri

Only glimpse of the mountain road
That followed where river flowed; a
Only glimpse-then on we passed,
Skirting the forest dim and vast. i''
closed my eyes. On rushed the train
Into the dark, then out again.
Startling the sOng-birds as it flew
The wild ravines and gorges through.
But, needing not the dangerous way
Oerhung by sheer cliffs, rough and gray.
only saw, as in a dream, ttsf wei
The road beside the mountain stream.
No smoke curled upward in the air,
No meadow lands stretched broad and fair,
But towering peaks rose far and high,
Piercing the clear, untrOubled sky.
Yet down the yellow, winding road
That followed where the river flowed
saw long procession pass,
As shadows over bending grass.
The young, the old, the sad the gay.
Whose feet had worn that narrow way,
Since first within the dusky glade
Some Indian lover wooed his maid;
Or silent crept from tree to tree
Spirit OF stealthy vengeance, he!
Or GREATNESS crouched while through the brake
The wild deer stole his thirst to slake.
The harafOot school hovS rushing ont
An eager, crowding, roisterous rout;
The sturdy lads. the lassies gay
AS bobolinks in merry May.
The farmer whistling to his team IS
When first the dawn begins to CLEAN;
The loaded wains that, one by one,
Drag slowly home at set of sun.
Young lovers straying hand in hand
Within fair enchanted land;
And many bride with Ii ngering feet
And many matrOn calm and sweet. a-
And many an old man bent with pain.
And many a solemn funeral train;
And sometimes red against the sky
An army's banners waving high.
All mysteries Of life and death
To which the spirit answereth,
Are thine, o lovely mountain road,
That followed where the river flowed.
