Runs that Engineers Don't Like.

Said an old railroad engineer the other
day: "There are three kinds of trains
that do not want to have anything to do
with. One is the pay train. You never
know when you will overtake the section
hands. You will be going at the rate of
forty miles an hour; away you go around
q curve and you will dash by the boss and
hands and have to go back to them.
There is always 2 good deal of talk over
the wages and much time is taken up.
The most unpleasant train to handle
is an excursion train. Everybody
living along the line knows you
from seeing you come by every
day, and they think you know
them as we'll. When on an excursion
they presume upon their friendship to
endeavor TO ride on the engine. No
other place will do them. The engineer
has to refuse them, as it would amount
to docking his wages from thirty to sixty
days if he complied, positively against
the rules of the road. The persons de-
MED the privilege always feel hard about
it, and look upon the engineer as unac-
commodating. The last and worst OF
all, however, is the officers train. If
you run slow they say you are scared
and afraid to run fast. If you make
good time they say you are careless and
reckless and want to kill somebody. You
can suit them. - Exchange

The opaline mist on the void,
In the tinkle OF brooks through the pasture,
The rivers strong sweep TO the sea,
Are signs OF the day that is hasting
In gladness TO you ard 10 me.
SO dawn in thy splendor OF llies,
Thy fuiterng violet breath,

Full baskets OF flowers we bring,
And scatter their satin-soft petals
To carpet path for our King.

The original idea of co ored Easter eggs
was probably borrowed from Nature that
great source of original thought, for it is
during the month of Towering April that
the birds fill their tiny nests with tinted
treasures As Easter offerings, eggs beau
tifully dyed and decorated are extremely
popular, making up the greater part of that
immense mass of gifts which each year
makes its way from friend to friend What
could be more peculiarly appropriate or
more beautiful in artistic adornment than
these sermons in SHELLY" The custom OF
bestowing gifts at Easter is one fraught
with the tenderest feeling aud replete with
expression of good will. When the gifts
bestowed are tokens OF loving hope and
congratulation, received and donated in
this spirit, then we celebrate in a true sense
this season of universal rejoicing to which
the lilies and tho purple passion flowers are
consecrated Ellie NJ Huddleston in St
Louis Magazine.
