A Remarkable Story.

The st. Thomas (Ont.) Erenir,g Journal tells
the following exceedingly wonderful story
concerning a Michigan man:
On Sunday morning as the c. S. r. express
going east was nearing Fletcher, a man who
from his seat and ran hastily along the aisle to
the platform and jumped from the flying
train. The speed of the train must have been
forty-five miles an hour, and those who saw
the man make his terrible leap thought there
was not the slightest chance for his life. The
rope was pulled by the brakeman, the engine
reversed, the airbrakes put on, and the train
backed up to the point where the man made
his sudden exit, the train men being all ready
to pick up the fragments of what was sup
posed to be crazy passenger. However they
were mistaken, and the train was met by the
SAID passenger hoofing it down the track at a
lively rate. He was almost uniniured and as
Roadway toward Buffalo again he WAS besieged

LAST MEETING OF POCAHONTAS
AND CAPTAIN SMITH

In stately hall at Brcntford, when the English

court and Queen.
There for audience as she waited, with half

All undazzled by the splendor cleaning round
ber everYwhers,
Digit in broldered hose AMI doublet, came a
courtier down the stair.
Aswith striding step he hasted burdened with
the Queens command.
Loud he cries, in tones that tingled: " Wel-
come, welcome To my landl"
But tremor seized the Princess, and she
dropped upon her hand.

Nay, look up. Thy fathers daughter never

Shrnnk not from the forest darkness when her
doe,uke footsteps ran
To my cabin. bringing tidings OF the craft OF
Powhatan."
With EXTENDED arms, entreatinR stood the
stnlwurt Captain there.
while the cOurticrs press around her, and the
passing pages stare;

How American Girls Talk.

We are told that talking is only II
variety of singing, and in listening to
the talk of American ladies, that doc
trine becomes easily acceptable. At
first the pitch sounds somewhat shrill,
though not disagreeably, only unaccus-
tomedly so. BY and by you beg to
like it, as presumably we should like
any keynote coming from pretty lips.
