roseoa All of the roseola cases recovered
and are doing we'll Twelve of the COM
plicated cases persisted. Eight of them had
chronic commissions. The cause of three of

severe nephritis and general anasarca.--.
Forty nine cases out of 81 have discharged,

The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1885-10-01

A few miles north of Marlsbo-
rough, Md, is a chasm which is
spanned by an open trestle bridge,
to the bottom of the chasm at the
deepest point is perhaps 60 feet.
The railroad approaches this bridge
around sharp curve, and the en-
gineor of a train cannot see the
bridge until near it. The other af-
ternoon as the Pope's Greek south
bound passenger train sped round
the curve nearing the bridge, the
engineer was Mortified to see a wo-
man crossing the brigde on the rail
road track, carrying in her arms an
infant and leading by the hand a
child of perhaps three years of age.
The engineer at once applied the
air brakes and blew the danger sig
nal, but he saw it was impossible to
stop the train before he reached the
point where the woman was. She
heard the train approaching, turn
ed and looked at it, saw the horror
of her situation in one quick, in
tense glance. Below the heavy
rains had filed the chasm until it
had become torrent. To jump
from the bridge would be to find
death in the water; and to remain
where she was few seconds longer
would be to meet instant death.
Several persons who were near the
track at the time and who saw her
situation, made signs to the engIn-
eer to stop, but he was powerless
although he struggled until the
sweat stood out in great drops from
every pore. Then he rushed for
ward toward the front of the loco
motive with the intention of essay
ing the daring feat of selling the
woman and dragging her to the
cowcatcher. At this the woman
caught both children in one arm,
with the other she firmly seized one
of the ties on which the track is
laid and swung herself between the
ties and below the bridge and the
train passed over her. 1t was so
quickly done that the spectators
supposed she had jumped from the
bridge. AS soon as the train stop
ped Conductor G. A. HaYerstick and
Brakeman Honeymann rushed back
to the spot where the woman was
seen to disappear. They found her
clinging to the tie with one arm
and holding her two little ones with
the other. From this perilous posi-
tion they were soon rescued, the
woman much exhausted but all Of
them without a bruise or scratch.

Who Earns it2

81 can't afford to let my boys
spend hard earned money foolishly,"
said farmer to me when some
amusement was proposed in the
neighborhood, and he was solicited
to let his children take part. Three
questions asked themselves to me
~ Could he afford to deny his
boys healthy amusement and recre-
ation2 (2) Who had earned the
hard earned money he spoke off
Had the boys not helped to earn itf
II so, were they not entitled to some
of it, on every principle of right and
justice and fair dealingg 90 Would
it he spent foolishly if it afforded
them pleasure aHd gave them some
thing to think about beside the
routine of farm work.
If a boy helps earn money he has
a right to part of it. To take his
earnings and say they are not his
is one kind of robbery. Who can
blame a hoy for not caring to go on
in this way2-R. in Country Home.
