An Irish Home Near the Coast and It's
Pair of Girl Inhabitants.
The rain was still falling when Bally-
nahinch was left behind; but on the
moor to the left two witchlikc figures
were seen. their hads half wrapped in
plaid shawls, their limbs showing
through wet, short skirts. and their
small red feet and legs flying from tuft
to tuft of the moss. They were native
girls, driving the small coal-black cat
tie of these wild up-lands. and the sight
of the driver, an ancient friend. put
them in the widest spirits. They
swOoped down on the car and were soon
seated. laughing and singing, brushing
the wet from their tangled hair and their
hair from their red cheeks, but not for
getting to smooth the skirts of the
rough homespun modestly about their
bare extrcmities. They were redole mt
ofpeat smoke, like the poteen they brew
here in spite of all the constables; of
good health. good humor. and that indie
scribable fragrance which comes from
living almost completely out of doors.
Presently we drew up before their
own home. They seized various par
cells coming to them from Galway, and
in twinkling they plunged into COM
fortable-lookIng cabin of large size like
a brace of colts, with flourish of their
red heels. The men and boys of the
family wore shoes; doubtless Sundays
these same headlong lasses turn out as
well shOd rs any in COnnemara. A
few years hence these girls will be in
the United States puzzling an American
mistress by their ignorance on some
points and unnatural acuteness on
others. If she could sec the interior of
some of these cabins she would only
wonder how they ever learn to use the
resources of ''mOdern improvements"
Much is being done in Ireland to give
all children a good schooling in the
elements of book wisdom. but there is
no provision for the training of servants,
wherefore there is much wailing in
American households, great misunder-
standings and many chances of profita-
BILE places lost to this class of emigrants.
For this reason it is to be feared that
our young friends when better clothed,
fed and housed than they are now, will
be no longer SO jolly and devil-may-
care.-COr. ~ T. Times.

CHAPTER ".
RITZ NARTTN

Two weeks OF farm drudSlnT had
passed. John Miles, the tirelcss young
farmer, and Walter Brownfield had
been comrades in labor. Walter had
grown sunburned, and his once soft
hands had become hardened with toll.
Those who had predicted that the pale
slender youth could not endure the
fatigues of farm work, little knew the
power of endurance in that delicate
frame.
Corn cutting was over. but the plow-
ing and sowing of winter wheat and
general run of chores kept the ''boys"
and hired hands of Mr.. Miles busy.
Walter learned that labor was not to
be dreaded SO much IS he had sup
posed. Ben Miles, with his droll wit,
lightened their hours of toll. The
youth found that he could sleep
sweeter after a hard DAYS work, and
each morning awoke with renewed
strength and vigor.
He was intrusted with team and
permitted to do some of the lighter
work, such as hauling from one por-
ton of the farm to another.
1t was rule of Mr.. Miles. as it
should be of every good farmer, to lay
in his supply of winter wood in the
autumn. His vast forest land furnished
fuel, and John and Ben Miles, being
most expert with an axe, were to fell
the trees, and cut them into sticks the
proper size for the wagon, while WAL
ter was to haal them to the house.
Walter found this labor even pleasant.
To see the q eat horses display their
giant strength ia drawing heavy loads

How to Prevent Railroad Disasters


A railroad man attributes the great
loss Of life by the Rio train dis.
aster to the fact that the day coach
was between the baggage car and the
sleepers. Day coaches are of slight
construction and crushed by a shock
which would leave heavy sleeper al
most uninjured. The Erie road makes
up its trains with the coaches behind
the sloepers, and many other roads are
considering the plan. 1t is followed
by the Southern Pacific Company in
making up its trains. How this plan
of subjecting them to the brunt OF
the shock in a collision will be &C
cepted by occupants of sleeping-cars
can only be ascertained through an
interview with a survivor subsequent
to fatal railroad disaster. The only
effectual remedy to prevent the col
liding of trains is to arrest and pun
ish the officials through whose neglect
railroad collisions resulting fatally o.
