Travelling in Style.

Mrs. Geo. NJ. Pullman, wife of the
palace car inventor, her four children,
twelve servants, five horses, family
carriages and dOg-carts, says a Pitts
burg dispatch, took up the room in
two Pullman cars on the Fort Wayne
road. The Pullman family is Ell route
to Long Branch for the summer. The
car for the horses and carriages has six
stalls and room for three carriages be-
side the berths, lockers and sitting
rooms of the grooms and hostlers. The
stalls are models of convenience and
square comfort. Separate compart-
ments are also arranged for the feed,
hay, lamps and other articles required
for the horses and carriages. The pri-
vate car in which Mrs. Pullman travels
is in imitation of a modern dwelling.
Divans of more than Turkish luxuri-
BUSINESS occupy the corners and sides
of the main room in the centre of the
car, while reclining chairs, Ottomans,
and easy chairs are scattered around.
A magnificent cabinet organ is one of
the handsOmest ornaments of this
drawing room. The dining room and
sleeping and kitchen apartments are
fitted up Oh the same magnificent scale.

The Fatal Gun.

Capt. William Cook of Cambridge,
Mass, who served with credit in the
war and suffered in Libby Prison, and
who has since been professor at the
Institute of Technology in Boston, was
with his family, spending vacation
at Chatham, enjoying the fishing and
cunning, when his gun was accidental
ly discharged into his knee and he
bled to death after hours of intense
suffering. Mr.. Cook was n rare man.
He was a native of New York city,
was the youngest man i'm the Yale col
lege class of 1861, was one of it's best
and most accurate scholars, was an en-
thusiast alike in study and athletics,
was honest, faithful and conscientious
as student, friend, instructor and man.
He was clean in person and in charac-
ter. He graduated at Yale at 10, went
into the army ut 81, and was "A years
old. He was the picture of physical
health and strength and had promise
of long and useful life, as well as ev-
erything that makes life desirable in it
self.

A Thought for Mothers q.

Talking the other day with one of
the most sensible women | know, one
too, whose large family is SO well or
dered that there never seems to be a
particle of friction in its management,
and | determined to repeat it to a wild
er audience than the one my friend had
at the moment.
81 never fret about little faults of
manner, nor even about transient irri-
liability, in my children" said the lady.
"Children, us they are growing up, go
through many temporary conditions,
which if apparently unnOticed, pass
away. In fact, there are little moral
disturbances to be expected, like
whOOping cough and measles in the
physical life, and if the general home
atmosphere be wholesome and the
trend right, | do not think it worth
while to be too much distressed over
occasional naughtiness."
Is there not comfort here for you,
dear friend, who can not understand
why John, carefully trained as he is,
sometimes in the eager heat of play,
bursts into the room like u tornado, or
fOrgets to put his cap on nail, and
boots on shelf, as an orderly boy OughtP
And if Sarah is not SO patient as she
should be with the younger ones,
sometimes has mysterious fits of de-
preston, or is Historically gay with
no cause that you can see, summon
your own gentle self-possession to the
front; remember that the period be-
tween childhood and youth, like Il
transition period, is very trying, and
while you pray great deal for your
darling, do not worry about her or
talk to her too much. Above all, do
not suffer yourself to be always cen
surfing a sensitive boy or girl, to whom
judiciOus praise now and then will be
IA tonic.
Line upon line, precept upon precept,
we must have at home. But we must
have serenity, peace, and the absence
of petty .fault-tinding, if home is to be a
nursery fit for heaven-grOwing plants.

Do 1t Now.

Don't live a single hour of your life
without doing exactly what is to be
done in it, and going straight through
it from beginning to end. Work, play,
study, whatever it is, take hold at once
and finish it up, squarely and clearly;
then to the next thing, without letting
any moments drop between. 1t is won
derful how many hours these people
cOntrive to make of a day; it is as if
they picked up the moments the drawl-
lers lost. And if you ever find your
self where you have so many things
pressing upon you that you hardly
know how to begin, let me tell you a
secret: Take hold of the first one that
comes to hand, and you will find that
the rest will fall into file and follow
after, like company of well-drilled
soldiers; and though work may be hard
to meet when it charges in IL squad, it
is easily vanquished if you can bring it
into line. You have often seen the
anecdote of the man who was asked
