Something New in Railway Cars.

The Photographic Times, of New
York, contains an interesting illustrated
article aboct one of the most unique
Photographic galleries in existence.
The gallery is car built after the fash
ion Of Pullman coach. It can be at
tached to any express train and in it the
photographer travels all over the coun-
try, principally on the Northern Pacific
railroad, of which he is official photog-
rapher. M F. Jay Haynes had the car
built for him at cost of $4,000, while
the fittings cost 1000 more. The land
scapes he takes for the railroad are done
by Scovill camera, making a picture
2Ox24 inches. The car contains an op-
Grating room, reception room, storage
rooms, dark rooms and all other appur-
tenances Of first-class gallery. West
ward the Photographic star seems to be
taking Its way at lightning express
speed. Detroit Free Press.

Bad Manners!


Good manners are part of every
little boys and girls education. With
out them you are not loved, or well
coined among others. The following
are bad manners: Loud laughing;
reading when others are talking; cut
ting your nails in company; leaving a
stranger without seat; want OF rev.
erence for superiors; receiving pres.
ent without some manifestation OF
gratitude; laughing at the mistakes OF
others; correcting older people than
yourselves, especially your parents; be-
ginning to talk before others have fin-
ished; answering questions put to 9TH
ers; beginning to eat as soon as you
sit down to the table, Worthingto1's s

SEA ROMANCES.
Actual Catastrophes Which Prove That
Truth is Stranger Than Fiction.

Actual Catastrophes Which Prove That
Truth is Stranger Than Fiction.
Although the rakish pirate schooner
has, with her picturesque and truculent
company, sailed into the sea of oblivion;
and the gallant frigate has given place
to the steam cruiser; and the floating cas-
tle-llne of battleship is succeeded by the
unsightly ironclad, there is good deal
Of romance left about sea-faring life yet.
There are mutinies and strange disap-
pearances Of vessels which suggest foul
play, and odd crafts that are noted by
many vessels, and yet spoken by none;
there are floating wrecks which cruise
from one side of the ocean to the other;
forging suddenly out of the haze and
darkness of midnight to startle some
nodding lookout, or perhaps to send
down into the depths laden craft
whose fate will forever remain mys-
tery. Crews rise against brutal cap
tains, murder them, loot the ships, carry
them into some little-known port and
disperse, hiding in their bosoms the Sc
| cret of an ocean mystery. Some dread
| full tragedies are Witnessed by spectators
| doomed to watch and powerless to save.
In the midst of tempest one vessel sees
another 90 down, and can do nothing
to rescue the men, who appeal to them
| from the deck of the sinking ship. Even
more heart-rending are some OF the
tragedies reported.
Not long ago British steamer out
ward bound from an American port en-
countered a waterlogged French brigan-
tine. All the Frenchmen were rescued
save the Captain and the first mate and
the little son of the former. Captain
and mate were crazy with drink and
would not Jump for the life-boat nor al
low the boy to be taken on board, and
after exhaustlng every effort, the steam
er was compelled to resume her course
leaving the hulk to float about the ocean
with two madmen wildly dancins
on the deck; the child had disappeared
One of the rescued Frenchmen said tn

the cabin and locked the door to pre
vent his rescue. This story OF the sea

YOUR FATHER.

YOUR FATHER,
Ny boy, be kind to father,
For he's been kind to you;
He's sought to lead you safely
Your lifes brief pathway through;
He's cared for you and Loved you,
He's tried to save you pain.
And given kindly counsel
hope not all in vain.
He wants to see you happy;
He wants you to be true;
His hope and pride is conferred,
Believe it, boy, in you.
How much Of JOY and COMFORT
Is in your power to give
This faithful, loving father,
If rightfully you live.
Be manly, true and honest
In every thing that's done,
And show him that his counsel
Ia treasured by his son;
Be kind when old age sprinkles
Its snow flakes in his hair,
And make his last days happy
With loving word and care.
