THE WAY OF THE WORLD.

Laugh. and the world laughs with you,
Weep, and you weep alone,
For the brave old earth must borrow It's mirth
1t has trouble enough of Its ewn.
Sing and the hills will answer,
Sigh 1t IL lost on the air;
ne echoes rebound to joyful sound
And shrink from voicing care
Rejoice. and men will seek you,
Grieve, and they turn and go;
They want full measure of your pleasure,
But they do not want your woe.
Be glad, and your friends are many,
Be sad, and you lose them ALL
There are none to decline your nectared wine,
But alone you must drink life's gall.
Feast, and your halls are crowded,
Fast, and the world goes by,
Forget and forgive-it helps you to live,
But no man can help you to die
There is room in the halls Of pleasure
For long and lordly train,
But one by one, we must all march on,
Through the narrow aisle of pain.

Oaling q Crank.

The Palatial steamer Mary Powell
Was on her trip up the Hudson. A
number of passengers had gathered
around the open door of the engine
room, looking with interest at the
movements of the penderous machin-
cry. Among the passengers was Sam
Foster. q New York gentleman, who
is a practical joker. He is young
maa Of means and very elegantly
dressed. He is, moreover, q very good
amateur ventrilequist.
Nov, boys" said Foster, "let us
have some fun with the engineer"
A clsaking, squeaking noise was
heard among the machinery. Tie en-
ginssr was somewhat startled, and he
fabricated various and sundry parts of
the machinery with great industry
and an oil can. The latter contained
half point of ell.
Foster nudgsd one of his boon COM
psniOns in the rib, and pretty soen the
machinery squeaked again. Orce
more the engineer Gained down a sus-
pcctsd piston by amounting it with
his allsvlator. The squeaking still
continued, and Foster pointed out the
place that needed oiling. Once more
the engineer took his alleviator, and
removing the cork, poured the CEN
tents down the back of the festive
Foster, and ever his forty dollar suit
of clothes.
"There," said the engineer, 81 don t
thinA that crank will squeak again in

the first work she had been able to
procure in California, where she found
the avenues of employment for women
much fewer than in the east. She had
worked at dressmaking in St. Louis,
but her health would not permit her to
continue to sew and she came to this
coast. I asked her why she didn't try

To Keep from Drowning.

We hope that every woman who
can manage it will follow the advice
which is so often given to women
and learn to swim, if She does not
already know how. Women are ev.
en- more helpless than children in the
water. on account of the length
weight and tightness of their cloth.
ing. We give few directions for
keeping af1oat, which may save some
ones life this season: The human
body weighs pound in the water,
and chair will carry two persons;
that is, it will keep the head above
water, which is all that Is necessary
when it is question of life or death.
One finger placed upon a stool or
chair or small box or piece of board
will easily keep the head above water
while the two feet and the other hand
may be used as paddles to propel to-.
ward the shore. 1t is not necessary
to know how to swim to be able to
keep from drowning. A little ex
perience of the buoyant power of
water and faith in it are all that is re-
quired. A person unfamiliar with
the buoyant power will naturally try
to climb on to the floating object
on which he tries to save himself. IF
it is large enough that is all right.
But it is generally not large enough
to keep all entirely above water.
This often happens when pleasure
boats capsize. All Immediately want
to get out of the water on top of the
overturned or half filed boat and all
are drowned except those whom the
wretched craft will wholly bear up.
If they simply trust the water to
sustain 99.lOO of the weight of their
bodies and the disabled boat the
other l.lOO they might be saved un-.
der most circumstances. An over.
turned or half filed wooden boat
will sustain more people than it will
carry. 1t would keep the heads
above the water of as many people
as could get their hands on the gun

is laid up to Village Creek, where 1t

Roach was on board and timed the run,
which was made in a little over seven

of that jolting peculiar to new

as smoothly as II on the tracks of the
best road in the East. There can be no
two ways about the matter, the Fort

ciilc road would henceforth be denied the
right of using the Texas & Pacific track
from Whitesboro to Fort Worth. A Ga
