A Ten-lnch Railway.

One OF the most curious railways
lin the world is the ten-inch gauge
road running from North Billerica,
Mass, to Bedford. it was at first
hooted at by the people, but the road
was completed, making a length of
about eight and a half miles. There
are eleven bridges on the road. one
of which is over 100 feet. The rails
weigh twenty-five pounds to the
yard. The road is well built and
equipped-one grade 155 feet. The
cars and engine will at first sight
create wonder and admiration. Their
perfect proportions give them
handsome appearance. They are
constructed very near the ground,
giving them great advantages of
safety. The cars have an aisle with
one seat on each side, in the same
manner as ordinary cars have two
seats. The length of the cars allows
thirty seats, each person having a
seat to himself. The cars are sup
piled with closets, water tank, are
heated by steam and have all the
modern improvements. They weigh
but tour and a halt tons, ordinary
cars weighing on an average eighteen
tons. The trains run at the rate of
twenty miles an hour with perfect
safety. The engine is placed behind
the tender, giving greater adhesion
to the track. They weigh eight tons,
and draw two passenger and two
baggage cars. The cost OF the road
was about $4,000 per mile.

The Wife's Claims.

You are a man of business, and have no
time to show attention to your wife-few
opportunities to converse with her; at least,
you make few. She submits to this unsocial
state of things because she must, but is she
happy? Probably not; no woman likes to
be considered a cipher. Your wife ought TO
be your best adviser. She ought to be your
most confident counsellor. The self conceit
of man amounts to genius. There are many
husbands who would as soon think Of taking
advice Of their children as of their wives.
But it is only the fool who is too wise to
seek counsel. A woman, you say, knows
very little about business nevertheless, her
intuition is often better than mans judg-
ment. Your wife is your partner. You
have earned the money, but she has saved
and sacrificed and pinched and worried and
worked to help accumulate it. She has done
her fair share toward making your property
what it is; she has right to be consulted
how it shall be used. A double right has
she to have her judgment weighed and meas.
ured in all questions relating to the disposi-
ton of the family and the training aud cul-
ture of the children. Talk to your wife on
all occasions When you come home at
night, tired with the cares of the day, to fiud
her equally fatigued, bring to her the news
OF the day; bring the latest, freshest thought.
In buying your paper, or subscribing for
your monthly magazine, or renewing your
religious weekly, get what suits her needs
and meets her tastes. There is more in that
patient, quiet, silent wife Of yours than you
think do not freeze her very individuality
by your practical contempt of women.-Ss-

Life's Opportunities.

Life is, in great degree, what we make it.
We are not to sit passively awaiting the end
of life. That will come iu Gods own good
time; but we are to strive with mighty
strength Of purpose to make Of ourselves
examples of goodness, wisdom, integrity
and high moral courage, so that when the
end shall come, we shall feel we have not
lived in vain. And how shall we succeed If
we pass by, heedlessly, life's precious oppor-
tunities We could not enforce upon our
readers the necessity of grasping great OPP
portunties alone, far from it; for do not
the little drops of water make the broad
restless ocean And where the desert but
for the little grains of sand ? So it is that
little opportunities for doing good, little les
sons that may at present seem 80 unimpor-
tant, help materially to lay the foundation
for great and useful life. Our faculties
for exercising an influence over others are
so many and great that it is difficult to con-
ceive how two persons may sit and converse
together without exerting mutual intiu
ence and every man who critically exam
ines his intellectual and moral state will OBJ
serve that however short his interview with
another person may be, it has had an effect
upon him. And this influence is usually
exerted when we think little about it but
we have probably left impressions on some
minds which will never be erased. AnC
this influence and constancy has often greai
power; a single instance of advice, reproof
caution, or encouragement, may decide the
question of mans responsibility, useful
ness aud happiness for lifetime. How
important, then, that we improve every op
portunity to make our lives a blessing t6
| others.-Chrisfidn Statesman.
