Preliminary Railway Work.

Last fall a narrow-gauge road twenty
two miles long was planned and COM
pany organized in Wisconsin, and an
Eastern man, who scented a chance for
profitable investment, called upon the
president to make some inquiries.
''How is the new line getting on?" he
asked, after some general conversation.
''Splendidly. We have the right-of-
way for the first five miles, and have
taken steps to gobble it for the other
seventeen.
''How much stock have you issuedP'
''Two hundred thousand dollars
''And how much has been sold?"
s'Well. you see, it has all been pre-
liminary thus far. We have sold enough
stock to buy blue, uniforms for all the
general officers, furnish up several
rooms with mahogany desks and mo-
quette carpets, and as soon as we can
work off sufficient to purchase horses
and carriages for president, secretary
and treasurer, and furnish the super
intendent with a yacht, we shall begin
the real serious work of building up q
grand trunk line ''-WaLE Street Ne5cs.

The Two Ages.

Folks were happy as days were lOng,
In the Old Arcadian times;
When lite seemed only Il dance and song.
In the sweetest of all sweet clmeS.
Our world grows bigger, and stage by stage,
As the pitiless years have rolled,
We've quite forgotten the golden age,
And come to the age of gold.
Time went by a sheepish way
Upon Thessaly's plains of yOre.
In the nineteenth century lambs at play
Means mutton, and nothing more.
Our SWANS at present are far too sage
To live as one lived OF old
So they couple the crook of the golden age
With the nook in the age Of gold.
From Corydons reed the mountains round
Heard news Of his latest flame;
And Tityrus made the woods resOund
With the echoes of Daphnes name.
They kindly left us a lasting gauge
OF their musical art, We're told;
And the Pdndcan pipe in the golden age
Brings mirth to the age Of gold.
Dwelers in hutS and in marble halls
From the shcpherdcss up to the queen
Cared little for bOnnctS. and less Tor ShaWl9,
And nothing for crinOlinc.
But now simpEcity'S not the rage,
And it's funny to think how cold
The dress they wore in the golden age
Would seem in the age Of gold.
Electric telc-raphs printing, gas,
Tobacco, balloons and steam,
Are little events that have come to pass
Since the days Of the Old regime;
And, in spite Of Lempricre's dazzling page,
I'd give-thOugh it might seem bold
hundred years Of the golden age
For year OF the age Of gold.

They were bound to make their buS
bands miserable and themselves too.
If both belonged to the profession, then
they must of necessity be parted half the
year. For they could not control their

the Sanctity of the marriage tie. If she
was on the stage and the husband was
not, it was still worse. The wife then
