"Unless she encourages him, and leads him

fellows. Don't you seeF'
II see a woman going fast to the devil,

deserve any sympathy; surely You don't

aN-no; certainly not"
@But we vii! have a long talk over this
presently, now that we have cleared the
briers and brushwood away; there's been a
little nonsense gong on at the refreshment

"Serious!" said young Tom, with another
unpleesa laugh; "of course not"
"Your mother will DO glad to hear it."

time rather sulkily.
"Ahl but not as you have spoken to Inc, as
one man can speak to another, face to face,
duu W.tuSut u Lo between LQeln," SAID the
major.
"~Yes-exactly," murmured the nephew;
but he did not meet his unch face to face
then, but looked down upon the finty path
way of the old town and set his teeth closer
together than ever.
The major was a man OF tact, and did not
"worry" the question. They walked on in
silence after this; he had spoken out and
paved the way to a complete understanding;
he was disposed, being a truthful man, to
believe his nephew, if not wholly and i'm
plicitly, and to think that the women folk
had made tho usual mountain out of the
customary mol hill. So far, so good. 1t
was a very fair beginning, considering that
this was the first hour of his arrival; and
now here they were before the great country
house of the Todds. lying a little apart. on a
hillside, from the town of Battlcton.
The major let 60 his nephew's arm, strodo
forward, pushed open the great swing gats.
and entered first.
"You'll find them all within, uncle" said
Edwin; ~ shall not be long"
"But-"
al shall he back in a few minutes; I have
forgotten something for to-morrow-in the

like a lapwing.
ayes, you have forgotten something, Ed.

stood in the dark ~carriageway looking after
tho rapidly r%eceding form of his nephew.

his foot and looked vexed.
Miss Racket by this time had recovered
herself. and lost the little amiability which
she had been ever known to possess. She
did not love Miss DAILY as a sister; on the
contrary, as she had told Miss Bland more
than once in confidence, she hated her like
poison; and to DO gravely informed by a
gentleman that be had lost time in talking
to her, under the Misrepresentation that she
was the identical Miss DAILY. whom he had
come especially to see, would have tried the

and regarding him with two thoughtful

that this was Miss Daily; he hardly knew
why at this moment, there seemed too many
reasons to be sorry, and they were all

remarked the major, after looking askancs
at his newhew; "but women are easily fiat

So said a little boy looking up very
earnestly into his grandmother's face.
And every one must admit the truth of
what he says, that it is very good reas-

1t is well for the young always to re-

will always influence some one or other

In the autobiography OF the late S.
1ren@us Prime, now being published in the
New York Observer, the writer tells of
scholar who went to school to Him in Sing
Sing, and was rather stupid at first as he
Numbered over his A-B-Cs. One day Mr..
Prime stood the small boy In the middle
of the room as a punishment. The bell
rope hung just there, and the teacher In
fun dropped the moose over the lads head.
There happened to be some boys in the
hall above, who pulled the rope, and the
little fellow at once went toward the CELL
ing. The teacher grabbed the rope and
pulled, which made the boys pull all the
harder, and the child was in danger of
being then and there hanged. But Mr..
Prime succeeded in extricating him none
the worse for the hanging, aud after
ward wrote: ''He went on with his
studies, became capital speaker at public
meetings, studied law, became recorder
Of ths,city of New ork, and subsequently

RAILROAD CARS.

Hew They Are Finished and Ornamented
lin the Great Pullman Works.
The cars vary in size and pattern,
according to their service. There are
sleepers and passenger coaches, parlor
cars, chair cars, dining cars and the
luxuriously equipped private cars.
There are also express cars, mail cars,
baggage cars and combinations of each
of these classes, as mail-baggage-and-
express cars or combination maitland
express cars. The first-class passenger
coaches seat from 81 to y persons, the
sleepers accommodate 50, the chair
car 40 and the parlor car but Sc. The
latter are elegantly furnished, and are
said to ride easier than any other kind
of cars. The sleepers weigh about
$4,000 pounds and the other coaches
average about $4,000 pounds. The
cost of manufacture of a sleeper is
S13, 900, the dining cars $1,000, the
passenger coaches $4,000, and the
others average about $500. The
trucks of the better class of cars for
passenger service are twelve-wheeled,
and are equipped with double sets of
elliptic springs and equalizing springs.
The wheels themselves are nearly all
furnished by the paper car-Wheel
works, which are adjoining the Pull
man works and are run by the same
steam power. When, in the course of
manufacture, the outside of the car is
finished an inspector examines it, and
if the work thus far is satisfactory he
writes upon it the words 30. K. Jack
up" by which he means the car is
ready to be elevated from the trestles
to trucks. 1t is then taken into an
other building where it is painted and
the inside finished.
It is particularly interesting to watch
the men working in the mirror depart
ment. Here number of men are en-
gagged in cleaning and polishing the
glass for the mirrors. Each man as he
does his part of the work hands the
plate to his neighbOr, who in turn
hands it to the next. The last man
who receives the plate hobbies about
upon n wooden leg. He holds the
glass in one hand and with the other
hand he pours out of bottle upon the
plate a LIQUID which makes a novice in
the business wonder why it does not
run over the edge of the plate. The
LIQUID is a preparation of silver. When
the silver has been precipitated upon
the glass the man varnishes it over and
the mirror is then complete save plac-
ing it in a frame. The silver-platine
rooms are also an interesting feature
of the works All the silver-ware used
in the Pullman dining cars or other
coaches comes to the company in the
form of copper ware. 1t is then silver
plated. The article to be plated is
first placed il boiling water to heat it
and clean it, then in sulphuric acid to
further cleanse it, and is then dipped
into solution of silver. The positive
pole of an electric battery is applied to
the article and the negative pole of the
same to the silver solution, whence a
connection is formed and the article
becomes eleetro-plated. The article
thus plated is placed upon machine
and given a rapid rotary motion, and a
steel burnisher is applied to it which
gives it the highly polished surface
which we see upon our silverware
when it is new.-Cb Chicago Mail.
