When three rival western Ialroads-say
three running out of Chicago-get into n
rumpus, cut rates and vow they will carry
passengers and freight for nothing, it is a
l)vers quarrel and must soon end. Before
the public has hal much benod. from the
break the president of the road which is
losing the most money invites the other two
to come and see him regard ne new style of
cattle car. They make their appearance on
time, light fresh cigars, settle down in easy
chairs, and No remarks:
"Gentemen, lam sorry to disappoint you,
but the model of the new car referred to was
accidentally broken last night"
"Oh, it's Of no consequence" says No. ..
"Not in the least" adds No 8.
"Now that you are both here, and happen
to think of it, may ba pardonod for saying
that my ro'd can continue this cutting BUSH
uess Tor an ind finite period and still pay
dividends"
"And SO can nine
And so can mine"
"No doubt of it, gen lener-not the least
doubt. This afternoon Instructed my gen
ersl passenger agent to cut rates one dollar
lower"
And so did t.
"And 50 did l."

Given toHospitality.

Good Company
II is for the chillreh's sake, even more
than for any ones, that every home ought
10 make much of the Offices of hospitality
ought to mako more of them than our
American homes are apt to. Guests are m
ess .rtial feature in the full equipment OF an
~ home life The house in which they are
q rarity is worse off titan one which has no
pietures, few books or ill.cooked food.
Intercourse with guests, especially with
such as are quite outside the circle of family
cousins, can but broaden the horizon Of
home thought and the range Of home tall;
Next to the benefits which come with travel,
from mingling with people away from your
home, in enlarging your views and widening
your sympathies, you may safely count that
which comes from intercourse in your own
home with the people who are away from
theirs There is something shriveing in the
very atmosphere of the family that joys
around, day after day, in the small circle OF
its petty cares, familiar interests, and monolo'
nous emp oyments, with no wider excursions
into the large life of the world than idle gos-
sip about the nearer neighbors. that is tho
forlornness and the disadvantage of life in
500 houses on the frontier, or log cabins on
the mountains.
Be the family ever so well off Otherwise, ii
needs the frequent coming and going OF
guests not only 10 lift table-talk out
Of the petty topics, but home manners
out of the rudeness into which IT
is 80 natural for family life to drift. 1t
is not a little thing that the presence OF
guest ut the table checks so much comment
upon the food, SO much cross firing be-
tween youngsters, so much sinking by older
folks into the shell of their own mediIations,
while it introduces wide range OF fresh
topics for family thought Of conversation.
But company " is expensive-iL Is said -
and most of us middla-class Americans, who
earn our lvings in shops or Offices, live a
good deal nearer anyhow, to the verge OF our
current income than prudent people ought
10: That may be- The things that are
most worth having generally cost some
thing, But when we once decide
that the duties of hospitality as well
deserve TO share in our outgoes
as do newspapers, church expenses and many
pleasant and helpful things nat we are not
willing to spare, we shall ina ways ana
means for them. Most people, though,
make the mistake of going o needless ex-
penso in entertaining their isit)rs, 1t is 4
poor compliment to your guest to suppose
that nothing else will 8 him so much
pleasure as a profusioI of things good to eat.
Your delicious salads and A4ky pastry are
not worth the having in dining room, der
madam, if their preparation causes you to
wear weary face all the evening in the par
lor. Every one knows in his own case that
ii is vastly plo ssnter to drop into the usual
family life Of the house where he is guest
to sit in the lamily-room to keep the family
hours, to share in the ordinary family fare
than to go about with in oppressive con
seriousness that everything has been joggled
on! of lis course by his arrival.
