Getting On and Off Trains.

Getting On and Off Trains.
SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 10, 1888.
Editors Herald:
This morning, on my way north,
an incident occurred that might
have proved fatal, but fortunately
terminated in a little shaking and
heavy scare. A young lady wish
| ing to get off a train at flag station,
failed to notify the conductor and
| jumped from the train, catching
her back on the top board of fence,
breaking the fall, so that she rolled
over to the opposite side. The train
was stopped and the youEg lady
| interviewed with the above result.
| 1t may not be amiss to make a few
suggestions in relation to getting on
and off the trains while in motion,
but the safest way is too get off and
on while the train is standing, more
particularly those unacquainted
with the movements of trains.
Many times injuries are re-
ceived by the sudden contact with
the ground or platform by havin
both or even one foot striking
solid; if this is done with the knees
and hip Stiffened, no matter how
hard the ground or lumber is, it has
the same activity as circus spring
board, to throw the performer in
whichever direction the heft and
motion is, and the result is a series
of Jumps, scrambling and rolling,
and utilizing the air with hands and
feet follows to say nothing of the
wind up. To step off, poise the body
according to the speed of the train,
leaning the body back; pick your
place of lighting before letting go
the hand rail, having your face
toward the engine; be sure your
body will swing clear of the car, let
go, alight on the foot with the
joints sufficiently supple to break
the jar, and self-preserYation will
tell how far to run or walk
as the case may be; boys
generally roll off the cars,
middle aged man jump straight out.
Passengers should always retain
presence of mind when they wish to
get off at a flag or any other station,
to be in readiness (but if it is at a
flag station tell the CONDUCTOR to get
off, to avoid delays, and state at
which station, so the conductor can
be on the look out. If perchance
the train does not stop, find the
brakeman (for conductors are liable
to forget some times) and make your
wants known, or go to the next sta
ton. but do not try to jump off.
In getting on do not catch the
hand rail with your arm straightS
ened out, but allow a little curve to
the elbows to counteract the move
ment of the cars; lean the body in
the direction the train is moving,
catch hold and spring from one foot
while the other is on the car step.

A Month Full of Diamonds.

Diamond dealers have a very hard
time of it to keep up with the schemes
constantly evolved by sharpers to rob
them" exclaimed q Lieutenant of
Police. "There is a new scheme called
the tongue racket 1t is, in my
judgment, one of the finest ever con-
ceived."
"How is it worked?"
"By two thieves--a man and woman,
who usually assume the role of husband
and wife. The pair drive up in car
riage before the jewelry shop they have
selected. and alighting, enter the door.
The man always appears very aged and
infrm, and leans heavily on the woman's
arm for support A pair of crutches
even heighten the effect. Reaching
the diamond counter the old man seats
himself He is too weak to stand. His
arms are evidently partially paralyzed
and hang limp by his side. He asks to
see some loose diamonds. The clerk
holds the tray very close TO the mans
eyes because his eyesight is so poor.
Having no use of his arms and hands
the clerk even takes up gem that he
can truthfully commend and shows it
to the prospective purchaser. The
tray is set before the old man, but the
clerks eyes are riveted upon the gems,
os course. Several paper packages of
the brilliants are opened. Clearly the
old man is selecting a memorial present.
Ultimately several packages are spread
out on the tray. Perhaps hundred or
more diamonds. The nearsightedness
of the poor old man increases. He leans
even further over and, with his face
close to the gems, gazes tixedly at
them. Just at this juncture the woman,
with an ecstatic exclamation, points to
some prominent article in an adjacent
case on the wall behind the clerk. In
stinctively the eve of the salesman fol-
lows the direction indicated. One in
slant is enough. The thiefs tongue
meanwhile has been thrust into one of
the open parcels of diamonds, and as
quickly withdrawn into his mouth with
three or four of the gems adhering to
it. The theft can only be detected 10y
weighing the parcel or counting the
gems. This is rarely resorted to, as no
suspicion is excited. The next move on
the part of the thieves is to select u
couple of gems and order them set; or
TO order them sent &. O. ID. to any adj
dress in respectable locality that &C.
ours to their minds. Then they enter
their carriage and drive away.-Phila-

Take Care Of the Matches.

1t is q common custom to leave box
of matches anywhere, just where you
happened to use them last--on the
table, bureau, closet shelf-in fact, in
any place except the match safe. Chill
dren get hold of them, and slip them
into their pockets, and then in pulling
out their traps to find something else,
the matches slip out, just as likely to
fall on carpet or barn floor, with
straw scattered all about, as anywhere
else. Somebody steps on them, or a
mouse nibbles at the PHOSPHORUS, and
off they go Unaccountable! Strange!
The work of an incendiary!
Another way-young men strike n
match to light a cigar or pipe and
throw it down all ablaze, never minding
where it falls. If it is out of doors, it
cannot do any harm. 1t may not fall
straight to the ground, gust Of wind
may carry either sparks or blaze into
some combustible material, and it is a
seven days wonder how the fire orig
mated. Farmers JVVe," an Country

A Picnic is place where they go out
in the woods to eat cold Vittels, and the
Girls always Get the most. don't
know the reason why the Girls ought
to have the Most, but my Uncle Bill, he
say it have ben this way ever since eve
Begin too grab the Appel, but my mama
she say little boys Mussnt fight with the
Girls, but they have Got lots more long
or finger males than they have when my
Mama was little Girl. The picnic is
away off in the Woods by itself, and
you Get awful tired before the Girls
taste all the Goodys and say Dinner is
reddy. Then they spread out there
Dress and eat all the BALKANS, and then
they laf and chaw there Vittels all at
once. My Uncle Bill, he come to look
out after me, and he say it most like
lookin Starvation in the face to set off
and look at whole lot of Girls look in
all the Baskets and fix dinner, because
they amt got time to look in one basket
before they must run and look in the
other. George, he's my sisters sweet
heart, he come with green umberulla
with red Insides, and he held it hist
most of the time. My Uncle Bill he
say he saw somewhere in Book that
green umberullas will keep off the Ticks
because no country Ticks can fool q
young man that clerk in a dry-goods
store, and George he clerk most all the
time, except on picnics and Sunday and
some nights when my sister sing and
play on the Peano My sister tole some
of the Girls that George look mighty
nice, and expek he is, because me and
him went off by myself and eat whole
lot of COOLERS, and George he say they
are mighty good for mans health
when he go off on picnic like this.
But George was in fun, because when
he went to cross the Branch his feet fly
up and he set down right fat on green
Rock and the water splash awful. l
expeck this make George feel hurt, be-
cause when he got up he limp like the
cook when she have the Leg ache. My
Uncle Bill he say George can
hold more water than nine-pound
sponge, and he do not know the reason
why man with green umberulla can't
keep dry. But my sister she say she is
not a friend too my Uncle Bill no more,
and my Uncle Bill he say he is sorry,
because he have expeck too past many,
many pleasant days in the company of
she and George. But George he laf
and say it is all right, except bad soar
place on the back of his neck. and then
he said Goodby, and took off the Bal
lans of the Coolers.
But the big Fun was when one of the
Girls gst Rusty back lizard on her.
At first she scremd and Jump right
strate up and down, and tole my Uncle
to go away from there, and then seven
of the Girls helled her still until they
cot the Lizard; but my Uncle Bill he
say them kind of lizards don's do no
harm, but he expeck they Tickle mighty
bad. And the mex Day me and my I'm
Gle Bill we was broke out with the Red
bugs awful, and my Uncle Bill he say
the man what will attend to picnic he
is more crazy than Gitto to save his life.

Yourself Compared With the Emperor
of China.

1t is true that the most of us do
know, for the main part, only those
people whose lives run along in close
proximity to our own. But it does not
follow that those people are not as we'll
worth knowing and as ENJOYABLE as
those whose society can be attained
only by indefatigable climbing. The
people of this world, considered in
battalions of hundreds or thousands
most people know as many in the
course of their ives-strike pretty
even average, after all. and one battai-
ion is about as pleasant and companion
able as another. And then, too. the
select spirits do not always undergo
close acquaintance with credit TO them
selves and pleasure to ones self. The
little woman next door, or around the
corner, or on the next street, is un-
doubtedly just as charming and Just a.
companionable as the great actress, the
far-famed author, the admired belle.
The people one meets Mt o friends
evenings converse just as well, end
probably great deal better, than the
Pope or the Emperor of China. On
the whole, taken all in all and on an
average, the people one chances to
meet are just as well worth knowing as
the people one never sees.-Boston

Snn-SnOts and Trousers.

The fashion of wearing extremely
tight trousers has its periods of regu-
lar recurrence, like most other things
in this world. At present the more
nearly mans neither garments come
to being literally mold of FORM" the
more nearly also are they the "glass of
fashion" 1t may safely be said that
trousers will not be tighter than they
now are.
Looking back DER the vanished years,
we find that the last period of trouser-
tightness was in the latter part of the
year 1869. After 1870 the dimensions
gradually enlarged, until about 1875
the lower half of the fashionable youth
looked like pair of animated meal
bags. In 1877 the size began to dimin-
ish, and it has gradually contracted
until we have now reached another
maximum of compression.
One of the objects of true science is
to discover the connection between
things apparently diverse. When GER
tain phenomena recur with regularity
at definite periods, and other phenom-
ena recur regularly at the same periods,
it is fair to presume that there is some
connection between the causes which
produce each. In this way astrono-
mers and physicists have established
the fact of connection between auro-
raj displays, electrical storms and spots
on the sun, the periods of greatest en-
ergy of all three coinciding. To these
three phenomena must now be added
trouser-tig In 1869 and 1870
the spots on the sun were especially
large and numerous, the auroral dis
plays were exceptionally brilliant and
electrical storms of unusual frequency
and power. At the same time, as we
have already stated, trousers were re-
markedly tight. Just now the same
condition of the sun, the aurora, the
storms and the trousers is observable.
Just what that cause is has yet to be
discovered. The scientific value of
connecting trousers with sun-spots is
not yet apparent; but every fact is val
liable to the scientist, and the bearing
of it upon future theorizing may be
very mportant.-NelU York Nail and

How BOYS Marbles Are Made.

Almost all the marbles" with which
boys everywhere amuse themselves in
season and out of season, on pavement
and in shady spots, are made at Ober-
stein, Germany. There are large agate
quarries and mills in that neighbor-
hood, and the refuse is turned to good
account in providing the small stone
balls for experts to "knuckle' with.
The stone is broken into small cubes
10y blows of light hammer. These
small blocks of stone are thrown by the
shovelful into the hopper Of a small
mill, formed of a bedstone, having its
surface grooved with concentrated fur
rows above this is the runner" which
is of some hard wood having level
face on its lower surface. The upper
block is made to revolve rapidly, water
being delivered upon the grooves of the
bedstone where the marbles are being

New York Dudes.

We have two kinds of dudes in New
York-the rich dude and the poor dude.
The rich dude doesn't do anything.
They simply stand around in high shirt
collars and long tailed top coats and
look vacantly at nothing or try to mako
mash" Poor dudes are the dane
ing men at fashionable parties. They
do not talk-they have no ideas-but
they do dance the german divinely.
They generally accompany some
member of the hereditary train of I'M
certain-aged dancing young ladies, who
attend five parties a week from Deem
Der to Lent.
These dancing girls are generally
prettily and often richly dressed, and
are the daughters of rich parents, while
the dancing dudes are generally poor
They are pensioners on the young la
dies, for, when the young ladies forget
to send carriage for them they invari
ably excuse themselves ON the ground
of a previous engagement, or smuggle
themselves in alone. Still, they are
good-looking, generally contrive to wear
nice-fitting dress suits, faultless kids,
and crush hats. They depend upon the
governor" generally for cigars. They
look upon the party as place to fiatter
the girls, get free lunch, smoke good
cigars, and corner" champagne.
A poor dudes strong point, unlike
Achilles, lies in his heels. Though
without any apparent brain they chat
ter cleverly, and seem exceedingly
smart in commonplace. They know
from force of habit, just what to say,
and just what to do.-EH Perkins.

The Hearts Work.

As with each stroke the heart pro-
jects something like six ounces of blood
into the conduits of the system, and as
it does so some seventy times every
minute and 4, 200 times in an hour, this
implies that it does 80 100, 800 times in
twenty four hours, ~, 900, 900 times in a
year, and more than $500, 900, 900 times
in life of seventy years. The mechan-
ical force that is exerted at each stroke
amounts to pressure of thirteen
pounds upon the entire charge OF blood
that has to be pressed outward through
the branching network of vessels. Ac-
cording to the lowest estimate that has
been made, this gives an exertion of
force that would be adequate. in another
form of application, to lift 100 tons one
foot high every twenty-four hours. Yet
the piece of living mechanism that is
called upon to do this, and de it with
out pause for threescore years and ten
without being itself worn out by the
effort, is small bundle of flesh that
rarely weighs more than eleven ounces.
1t is in the nature of the case also, it
must be remembered, that this little
vital machine cannot be at any time
stopped for repair. If it gets out of
order, it must be set right as it runs.
To stop the beating of the heart for
more than the briefest interval would
be to change life into death. The mar
rative of what medical science has done
to penetrate into the secrets of this del
icate force-pump, so iealously guarded
from the intrusions of the eye that it
cannot even be looked into until its ac-
ton has ceased, is, nevertheless, long
history of wonders. BY means of the
sphygmograph0a writing style at
tached to the wrist by means of levers
and springs-the pulse is made to re-
cord actual autographs or cardiac and
vascular arrangement. - Edinburgh

The HOt.Water Remedy.

In the World Of Science a physician
advises beople not to take tea or cof-
fee after dinner or at breakfast. Cocoa
is recommended for breakfast for those
who can digest it, but hot water is bet
ter. Those who dine late, and need a
diluent drink an hour or two afterward,
but cannot drink tea on account of
being kept awake by it, are also coun-
selled to use hot water. Il find," he
says, "that dining solidly at 7 80, and
often needing to work from 8 to IL, a
tumbler of hot water brought into my
laboratory is the best drink, and, after
a few evenings, will be as much rel
ished as tea. The hot water assists to
complete the digestion of residual food,
acts upon the kidneys, and will be
found to wake one up without injuring
the stomach or keeping the brain awake
after bed time. In cold weather warm
water is the bost drink at dinner time,
and in hot weather is wholesomer and
more cooling than iced water"
