Travelling Brides and Grooms.

TO watch the newly-married couples
who travel is one OF the compensations
of our arduous life," said an old hotel
clerk the other day.
How can You tell whether they are
newly married or not?" inquired the

A simple and nourishing pudding
may be made in this way: Take half a
cup of sage and quart of water; boil
until the sage is soft, sweeten it to your
taste; beat the yelks OF three eggs and
stir in, with lemon or other fiavoring;
beat the whites of three eggs TO still
frost. beating in a tablespoonful of pull
yerized sugar; put on the top of the
pudding and set it in the oven to
brown. Another way is to cover the
bottom of a pudding-dish with apples
which have been peeled and cut in
quarters. pour the sage and water over
them, bake an hour in slow oven and
serve with sugar and sweet cream.

The Engineers Story Of the Presidents
Ride 10 Long Branch.

As the Presidents train swept past
the station at Elberon, Engineer Will
lam II. Page, of Jersey City stood with
his hand on the throttles. his slender
figure erect and almost motionless.
while his long beard fluttered in the
wind. He looked like sturdy pilot at
the helm. bringing his good ship into
port. Engineer Page looks like "a man
worthy TO be intrusted with such
cargo. Begrimed with dust and elm
ders this morning, he seemed almost
part of the locomotive. which instantly
obcyed the pressure of his hand.
A few moments later the train had
stopped, and No. COS went steaming
along toward Long Branch. while Pony
No. backed the cars up the switch.
just as No 653 started for Long Branch
sun reporter boarded her. As she
went dashing down the track, Page
drew long breath of relief.
did she behave well to-day on the
journeyP" he was asked.
Behave well, | should saw so. She
seemed 10 feel what WAS required OF
her. This morning she glided away as
gently as Il lady's carriage horse, and
even when put her TO her pace, AMI
she went along ut the rate of n mile in
tifty-three seconds. she seemed to hold
her breath
As Engineer Page said this he leaned
out of the cab. and looked at hisengine
rs kindly as "A rider would look at his
fayorite horse.
Then YOU didn't limit the speed to
forty-lve miles an hour, as was origin
ally intendedP" he was asked.
"oh, no; that, you see, would have
been only threc-quarters of mile to n
minute. But good deal of the way
we made more than 4 mile Il minute ="
did the doctors and the President
know you We're going at that rate?h
They didn't the first time let her

il. We left Washington ut 6.37 this
morning We ran down to Patapsico.

wasn't sure who he was felt kind of

Hes doing finely, Page came
back the answer.
Does he feel the motion" asked
Not at AL, he answered. 'Why,
you're going as smooth rs carriage
over az asphalt pavement

running little faster'n

behaved beautifully: so. halfway be-
tween Bay View and Lamoken, threw
open the throttle and let her 90 one
mile in fifty-three seconds. | did not
feel jolt or jar as she went tearing
down the track, and | knew then that
if the President had mind he might
get the sea breeze sooner. We stopped
seven minutes at Lamoken. | called
out TO one Of the attendants: Did you
notice anv extra motion when we were
going so fast?'
".Why, no. was the reply. Were
we travelling faster than forty-five miles
an hour?'
Yes, SIR says l, we went one
mile in fifty-three seconds

road to recovery

ucd. Il went pretty much at the speed

edge Of the road"

porter, .'your engine will be the most
famous one on the road?'
Yes. sir; and she ought TO be. |
guess she earned a National reputation
to-day"
did you have many crowds waiting
for You along the road?"
"Yes. People were massed in
crowds at every station, and in the
farming districts bosses and hands Incl
the fences"
Were there any demonstrations"
"No: every one along the road SEEM
ed to feel that ours was solemn jour
ney. They didn't even wave their
hands or handkerchiefs. There were
men. women and children among them.
and many women gave way to their
feelings and cried-not aloud, but
quietly. At one station woman hold
irg baby was in the front rank. The
baby began to cry. and the mother at
once went away"
Engineer Page has been for twenty
five years in the employment OF the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company. He
is forty-two years old. weighs 100
pounds, has light blue eyes, and sandy
whiskers. He began as fireman for
his father, Ralph Page. who was also
for many years trusted engineer on
I the road. and was selected to take
charge OF the train that brought the
body of President Lincoln to New York
on the way to its final resting place.
After firing for his father several years.
he was promoted for faithful services
and has for several years had charge of
