gurgling brook us he threw all of his
bait away, and watched il while il
was eagerly devoured by the creatures
Of the water.
He did not know that, in this
simple net, he was learning one OF the
greatest lessons Of life; that tho best
panacca for cnnui is 10 turn tho mind
and energies towards the helping OF
others, and thereby making tho lot OF
sufferers happier and moro endurable.
The next morning Jim Poulder was
up bright and early, but his father had
anticipated him, and had already fed
the animals He could really do moth
ing before breakfast, and he returned
to the house little disappointed,
though still strong in the resolution
that he had made tho preceding day.
He had at last become thoroughly dis
gustesl with himself, and he meant to
make his apology by actions as web as
by words.
Father. l want to do my regular
work today" he said, boldly, as hc
saw his father getting ready TO leave
for the woods. II am tired Of idle
ness"
Mr.. Poul,lcr looked at his son for q
brief instant. while n peculiar CLEAN
Of satisfaction came into his dark eyes.
He did not answer for a moment, but
let the boy have time 10 hide his blush
ing face from his gaze.
THE other day you were tired OF
work; now you're tired of play. Isn't
that rather contradictory, Jimi"
YES. but didn't know what !

I've got TO hcv somcthin' ter do. It's
too lonesome up here to loaf. 1t don't
agree with me"
Tho impulsivc boy blurtcd out the
sentences so forcibly that his father
could not doubt his earncstncss, and
the two rode away 10 the woods to-
gcthcr. II was clear summers day,
and the air was sweet with the scent
of the wild mountain flowers.
Similar days had been enjoyed be-
fore in the woods. but none seemed SO
bright TO Jim as this particular morn
ing, when he chopped the great trees
down by the sido Of his father. and
forgot all Of his complaints in his
work.
His two holidays had taught him a
lesson that he never forgot, for, after
all, he concluded that work was the
greatest blessing that is given to young
men OH this earth.
His love and respect for his father
were also increased by this little Incl
dent in his monotonous life. Instead
Of reproving him in violent words,
Mr.. Pouldcr had taught him the folly
of his wishes by letting him feel II
himself, which, after all, is the keen
est punishment that can be devised.
Jim was bright enough TO SEQ the sub
tlcty Of his fathers actions, and he
admired the scheme no less than the
originator Of it.-Gcorge Ethelbcrt

OFTEN SAW WASHINGTON.
Death OF Aunt Jane at 12O in Jersey
City Wednesday.

New YORK, MAY lO.--While the cen.
tennial celebration of Washington's in
auguration was in progress in this city
an old colored woman, helpless with par.
alysus in her limbs, sat in the cosy house
at $40 First street, Jersey City, telling her
friends about the first Inauguration 100
years ago. She was Mrs. Jane Davis,
known by everyone as Aunt Jane" For
thirty years she was stewardess at the
Pennsylvania ferry at the foot of Des-
brosses street. On account of her i'll
health she quit the work about seven
years ago, since which time the company
has allowed her pension of SIS a
month, and she has lived with kind
hearted woman, Mrs. Williams.
"Aunt Jane" died Wednesday when
the paralysis touched her heart. Her
mind was clear to the last. Her funeral
willtake place this afternoon at 8 o clock.
The burial certificate given by DR.. Loeb.
ner shows that "Aunt Jane" was 100
years old. Her friends say that she was
not able to tell the date of her birth, but
she claims that her son was 80 years old
at the beginning of the war OF 1912. She
often told of coming north from Georgia
with the La Barbiere family. She was
a slave, owned by Paul Verdier, and was
hired out as nurse. Her son went to
France with his master, who was drafted
in 1912 and ran away. She never heard
from him again.
"Aunt' Jane" came north in a stage
coach, several weeks being required for
the journey. In New York the LaBar.
biers stayed at the old Bunkers hotel, at
Bowling Green, where the old nurse fre.
quently saw Gen Washington, who was
a friend OF the LaBarbiere family. She
had also been to Mount Vernon to see
Washington in his own home. "Aunt
Jane" also remembered Lafayette, Alex.
ander Hamilton and Aaron Burr. After
returning south with the LaBarbierst
Jane Verdier rejoined her husband
Subsequently they fled North, assuming
the name Davis. They lived for awhile
in New Bedford, Mass, but for sixty
years she has lived in Jersey City.-Time,

cheapness or political economy you
ever had-it is buying in the cheapest
market. Just look at these swords and
bayonets from simply money point OF
view. This Government and the last
Government, and all the Governments
for long while back, following the
custom of the country to buy in the
cheapest markets, have been buying
them from Germany. We have been
lately putting the English soldier after
he is drilled and equipped, leaving his
life out Of the question and ] am one
of those bigoted people who think that
the life of an English soldier is priceless
-[applause] land after he has cost this
country at the least e1OO in hard cash,
in front OF an enemy and let him depend
upon Germon bayonet that you can
get for ] cheaper than you can get it
made in your own country. Hear, hear.
But you 60 little bit further. You
send out one Of those magnificent iron.
clads, which cost in some cases about a
million of money, and the men who
have got to defend it and keep it from
being taken by the enemy haye got to
depend upon a German cutlass which is
80 cheaper than you can get good
article for here. That is specimen for
cheapness and dearness. But there is
another thing. There has been lot of
trouble in the House of Parliament
within the last few weeks by Mr.. Howe,
Mr.. Creamer and other members as to
whether it is fact that mats and other
articles are being made by
PRISON LABOR
And sent into the country cheaper than
they can be turned out by other labor
outside, and, as Mr.. Creamer said the
other night, it is not question Of how
many are turned out, but the price they
are turned out at. Hear, hear He
said it was forcing down the price oi
mat-making all over the country; that il
was terrible piece Of injustice, and
that they are going to put stop to it
But when the mats came from Germany
or Belgium, or Italy, and are sold al
exactly the same price, he and his friends
say let them come, and as many as they
like, for that is a different thing-it is
Free-Trade. [Laughter.] - Americar

ONE PURE ARTICLE OF FOOD.
The Royal Baking Powder Officially
COmmended-WhOlesOme Action
Of the New Jersey State
Board Of Health.

The action of the State Boardof Health
in publishing the names of the alum
baking powders sold in this State will be
commended by all who are in favor of
pure and honest food. Scarce an article
sold enters more generally into the daily
food OF every one than baking powders.
1t is well understood that the alum and
the alum and phosphate baking powders
are detrimental to health, and consumers
only require to be informed as to the
names OF these unwholesome brands in
order to avoid them.
This information the manufacturers of
the alum baking powders are endeavor-
ing, it seems, to suppress. 1t is stated
that they went so far as to seek (unsuc-
cessfully, however,) for an injunction to
prohibit the New Jersey authorities from
proceeding with their recent investiga-
ton and expose.
1t is particularly gratifying to cousum-
ers to know that the baking powder
which they have SO long been accus-
toned to using, the Royal, has invariably
gone through these analyses not only
without reflection against it of impuri-
ty or unwholesomeness but each time
more emphatically endorsed as the su.
perior of all the baking powders OF the
market.
The health authorities of number of
other States have also recently made ex-
haustive examinations of this character,
and with the uniform result of finding
the Royal superior to all others. The
United States Government Chemist,
after an examination for the Indian De.
partment, made the emphatic statement
that "The Royal Baking Powder is the
purest in quality and highest in strength
OF any baking powder of which l have
knowledge" The authorities of Canada
have been making an elaborate study OF
the baking powders sold there. The
official analysist of Ontario says as the re.
suit OF his investigation that he "fnds
the Royal Baking Powder far superior to
the Others" and goes so far as to recon.
mend its use in preference to any other" +"
Likewise, a series of over five hundred
tests for strength made by public ana
lysts and other chemists of prominence
throughout the country show it to pro-
duce an average of twenty-five per cent.
more leavening gas than any of its com.
petitors. IN @yews Is e9R
A company that maintains this high
standard for Its product against the temp
tations OF the enormously greater profit
that would accrue from the use Of the
cheaper materials employed by Others
(for the alum baking powders are pro.
duced at cost Of three cents per pound)
is entitled to this public commendation
and endorsement. Ahd8A hHf

Beats All Previous Records.

New York, May S.-The steamer, City
of Paris, of the lnman Line, which ar
rived at Sandy Hook at Ills o'clock to.
day, has broken all records from Queens
town. Her correct time is days, 90
hours and minutes. The best previous
record, which was made by the Etruria,
was 6 days, hour and SO minutes. 1t
is the first voyage made across the At
lantic in less than six days, and there
were many men in maritime circles who
prophesied that the trip would never be
Gade in less than that time.
ION her first day out from Liverpool,
the City of Paris covered 445 miles. The
!, next day she progressed 494 miles
.,;urther on her journey. Then on the
third day she still increased her stint
and went sos miles. The fourth day
was the best of all and the City of Paris
made 5ll miles. On the succeeding day
she made 5O4 miles, and in the last frac.
ton of day she went 392 miles.
The City OF Paris not only broke the
record for the entire voyage, but also
made the quickest single days run, hav-
ing accomplished oil miles in one day.
The longest run previously made in a
single day was sos miles by the Umbria,
OF the Ounard line. The City Of Paris
was commanded by Captain Frederick
Watkins and brought large number of
saloon passengers, among whom was
David Dudley Field, who, though eighty
Ave, refuses to 60 slow. The whole dis,
tance run by the City Of Paris was 1856
: miles.
Had not the steamer been delayed by
foas she would have reached her desti-
nation about three hours earlier. Her
mean time from Queenstown to Sandy
Hook lightship is Ave days, twenty
5f6e hours, seven minutes. On the 9Th,
Nth and 7th inst, the steamer logged
504, sos and ,5ll knots respectfully, .
rate OF speed unprecedented IN the his.
tory Of ocean travel. Her mean spsed
during the voyage was, ~ near as pos1l-
ble. tWenty-three and one-half knots.
Under more favorable circumstance ces, the
CITY 81 Paris will doubtless still furthAr
reduce the time OF passage Cleveland

Growth of Freight Transportation.

In the early period of railroads in this
country, when they were built chiefly to
promote local interests, and the move
ment of either freight or passengers over
long distances was comparatively small
portion Of the traffic, it was customary
for all roads to do their business in their
own cars, transferring any freight des-
tined to station on connecting road
at the junction or point OF interchange
OF the two roads. While this system had
the advantage OF keeping at home the
equipment OF each road, it resulted in
very slow movement of the freight. AS
the volume OF traffic grew, and the inter-
change OF commodities between distant
points increased, this slow movement be-
came more and more vexatious. Soon
the railway companies found it necessary
to allow their cars to run through to the
destination of the freight without trans.
fer, or they would be deprived of the
business by more enterprising rivals. So
that to-day very large proportion OF the
freight business of the country is done
without transfer; the same car taking
the load from the initial point direct to
destination. The result of this is, how
ever, that a considerable share OF all the
business of any railway is done in cars
belonging to other companies, for which
mileage has to paid; while, in turn, the
cars OF any one company may be scat
tered all over the country from Maine to
California, Winnipeg to Mexico.
The problem that constantly confronts
the general superintendent OF railway
is, how to prove the time OF through
freight, thereby improving the service
and increasing the earnings of the COM
pany; and at the same time, how to Sc
cure the prompt movement of cars be-
longing to the company, getting them
home from other roads, and reducing as
far as possible upon his own line the use
of foreign cars, and the consequent pay
ment of mileage therefor. "The

hees, in the May Scribner's.
