The Old Folks.

Not long since we were at a
club house where duck shooters
were sitting around the stove dur
ing the evening, smoking and talk
ing, and the subject of the treat
ment ofssons towards parents came
up. Speaking of some person
who has been unkind to his father
or mother, young man who was
present, and who has one of the
grandest of fathers that young
man ever had, smoked moment
in silence, his eyes flashing fire
and then said, "Ill tellgyou boys,
there ought to be a hanging in
this country. A young man who
illtreats his parents by word or
deed ought to be hung.
Our young friend may
have expressed himself strongly,
but his remark will find an echo
in many an honest heart. The
man who can treat his old father
and mother in any manner that
will cause their hearts to feel tired,
has got something wrong about
him. Old people should constant
ly be made to feel that they are
distinguished guests and every
care that it is9possible to lift from
them by a son should be lifted
willingly, and..with feeling that
he is doing it as he would play
when he was a child. 1t should
be a pleasure. When the fathers
and mothers become so old that
they cannot take as active part in
the affairs of life as they once
could, they should feel that their
children are not anxious for them
to die, but anxious to have them
live long time without pain or
care and be happy all the time
The spectacle of an old man or
woman, even with no relatives ON
earth, in a poor house, is sad
enough, but to see an old father
and mother in Isreal, who have
worked hard during a long life, in
poor house, when sons and
daughters are living in luxury, is
enough to make one think of Wig
lance committee.

suppers at midnight. But all the

THE future cotton market in New York
was quiet and inactive. The price was

RAILkO ADS

The Boston and Albany and Fitchburg
railroads after July ! will not receive any
single piece OF baggage weighing over $50
pounds for transpor tation in baggage cars.
A report is in circulation that Pr, sident
J. w. Paramore proposes to build to Little
Rock, by the most available route. MS soer
as his road has been completed between
Clarendon and Pine Bluff. From this it
would seem that the relations between the
Paramore and Arkansas Midland are not
as happy as they were at one time.
The Cincinnati Southern is contemplate
ing the feasibility OF introducing on its
lines sleepers of its own. The principal
feature of the new sleeper is that the upper
berth originates from the lower berth, or
seat, thus preventing the car from being
top.heavy. The seats are so arranged that
they can be converted into single or double
berths, and can also be made into dress
ing room. The car Is new invention, and
has not until recently been presented to
the public.
The Reading railroad is experimenting
with improved brake rigging by which it is
said train of cars can be stopped almost
as quickly as if they were provided with
the air brake. The draw-head of each car
is connected with the brake. so that the
moment the steam is shut of the concus-
sion produced by the cars coming together
applies the brake.

Bouscaren, of the Cincinnati, New Orleans

accepting them: Three rails are selected
from each heat, one is placed on iron sup.
ports three feet apart, and 2,0O0pound
weight is dropped ten feet on the rail,
which must not bend more than six inches.
! The rail is then reversed and the weight
dropped on the convex side. II either OF
the ,hree rails break under this test the
whole run is rejected.
