SIR" ''Do you think, if you did, that
you could force any more air into the
bottle by blowing than was in it be-
fore 2" He couldn't say-never had
thought of it. "Well," continued the
gentleman, "you would soon find, if
you tried, that it was impossible; and
neither can you force air into this
church through a register if you don't
open window or some other Oritice."
"But,n the sexton demurred, "opening
a window would let in the cold air,
wouldn't it 2" "You just try it," was
the response; "raise some of the win
dOws on the leeward side of the church
and see what will happen" 1t was
done and instantly the handkerchief
lying on the register rose halfway to
the ceiling with the force of the ascend
ing current. The sexton stood and
stared in astonishment. "Now what
you want to do" explained the visitor,
who was ventilating engineer, sis tO
keep your windows open or put in ven
tilatOrs." He further offered to plan
the latter free of charge to the church
and left his card for the trustees to call
on him, but, of course, they never
came near him, and suppose cold feet
are still the main attraction to the
faithful attendants of this church, in
spite of the red-hot theology preached
there.-S0nitdry Engineer.

An innocent Abroad.

The other day, the police at the Un-
ion depot noticed feeble-loOking old
man wandering i'll and out to kill time
until his train should depart, and as he
several times displayed quite roll of
bills, he was cautioned to look out fol
pickpockets and confidence men.
"Wouldn't anybody rob an old man
like me, would they 2" he innocently
asked.
The warning was repeated, but he
logged around as before, and after 6
time was seen in consultation with two
strangers, who had walked him around
to the wharf. An officer got him away
from them and angrily said: =
''Didn't L warn you against strang,

"But how can they get it when
have it i'll my pocket and my hand OF
it all the time ,"
Well, you look out"
eyes, I'll look out, but don't wan
to be uncivil. When anybody talks tc
me, like to talk back"
The strangers soon had him OH tn,
string again, and in about half an houl
they left him in hurried manner, ant
he sauntered into the depot with hi
wallet in his hand.
"There! You've let 'em beat you y
exclaimed the officer. "How much dis
you lend them ?"
"Well, they wanted twenty dollars,
he slowly replied.
"And you handed it over, of course,'
81 give 'em fifty dollar bill and 90
thirty back"
"Well you'll never see the bill
again."

"Time to Get Up"

There is no doubt that if an instru-
ment could be invented to indicate the
various degrees or difficulty people ex-
perience in getting out of bed in the
morning, il would have to be graduat-
ed from zero up to very high figure
indeed. Many persons know absolutely
nothing of any difficulty of the sort;
they turn out of bed with the alacrity
of a bird, glad even that it is time to
get up; while others have to fight
battle more or less severe the moment
they open their eyes every morning.
We purpOsely describe tue difficulty
as that of getting out of bed, because
it is to very great extent a mechani-
cal difficulty. When man was once
rallying another on his weakness iD this
respect, he said, "Why don't you make
up your mind to it 2" The reply was,
"Make up my mind to it oh, that is
easy enough have done that Il hun
dred times; but what | can't manage is
to make up my body to it," 1t was a
facetious way of putting the matter, but
it really did describe the main Difficult
ty.
A person goes to bed with his mind
fully made up to rise in the morning at
the proper time, whenever that may be.
He knows very well he ought to do it,
and that it will be better fol him in
every way if he does it. Entrenched in
this virtuOus resolution he falls asleep
but when he awakes dull sense of in
ertness weighs him down, and if he
stops to think about getting up he finds
that inclination has usurped the place
of reason, and that if there is one thing
under the sun more ridiculous than an
other, it is the idea of getting out of
bed just then.
So pOwerless often is the resolution
at the waking hour, that we have heard
of man whose determination to get up
was so decided that he contrived "a ma
chine to pull the clothes off him at a
certain hour, actually getting out of
bed only to put them back and get in
again.
There must, of course, be an effort of
. the will, but it should be an instantane-
/ GUS effort, there should be no Odeliberation
Oh the subject, no time given to meGi-
tate on the propriety or otherwise of
getting up, or going over in our mind
5 the pros and cons of the question. Di-
S rectly we begin to think we are almost
1 sure to lie abed, but when we refuse tC
think we are much more likely to gel
f up.
And so we give the advice to every
S one who finds it very hard work to ge
up in the morning, but wants to mas
, ter the weakness, is-make up you
body to it, and turn out instanter with
2 out moments warning. - CdSSeLp

Locomotive Engineers.
IN. Y. SUM-


The thousands of people whose safety
is dependent on the quick Intelligence
and ceaseless vigilance of the engineers
who run the locomotives which draw
them along at from thirty to sixty miles
an hour, may give no thought to those
who have their keeping, but their un
questioning reliance on the fidelity and
discretion of these men afford the best
evidence Of the trustworthiness of loco
motive engineers. There are perhaps
fifteen thousand of them in the country,
and yet it is rare that we find instances
of neglect on their part, though mo-
mentary inattentiOn may be neglect
which will bring frightful conse-
quences.
If, therefore, we ever have occasion
to find fault with any individual among
these men, whose endurance and faith
fulness are so sorely and exceptionally
tried, we still must not forget how
much credit they deserve as a whole
for their punctilious performance OF
their perilous duties. If accident
comes to a train, the engineer, of all
Others aboard, is the most likely to suf.
fer from it, and at all times he bear,
the weight of responsibility which il
among the greatest that can rest on ;
man.
There is no body of workmen o
whom so much is required. The rail
roads demand that their engineers
shall totally abstain from alcoholic Ii
quOrs of every sort, and from tobacco
while engaged in running an engine
and some of them of late years have
carried this prohibition so far as t.
make it binding on the engineers wher
off duty also. An engineer must be &
perfectly sober, quickly observing, in
telligent and resOurceful man, to carr
the confidence of his employers and
keep his place. He must always be in
prime condition physically and mental
ly, and from the time his train starts
until it reaches its destination, by
night and by day, he must not fail in
his vigilance.
Of all workers, therefore, the ten OF
fifteen thousand engineers in the coun-
try are among those most entitled tC
just consideration. They are a brave,
selt-denying, painstaking and cOnsci-
entiOus body of men, of whom both the
public and their employers have reason
to be proud.
