Pullman Company entitled Colonist
Sleepers. and which for convenience and

There are four,eei sections in each car.

1t would appear from a case that has
just been heard before a French tribunal
that the sale of a child is no very serious
offense. The parents of the little girl in
question resided in the Faubourg st.
Antoine, Paris, and in their case it could
not be pleaded that they had too many
mouths to feed, since they had but one
child, q girl aged Q years. Even this
charge, however, they found to be too
heavy an encumbrance, SO it was decid-
ed to get rid of the poor little creature
to the best advantage. An acrobat

Many years ago a little colored girl, 6
years old, went to live in the family of
Mr.. James Meder, a worthy Quaker of
Falmouth. In hat family was a little
white girl, 4years old. The two children
grew up as sisters and the friendship CON
tinued for eighteen years, it is said, with
out an unkind word passing between
them. At the end of that time they
were separated, the Meder girl going
west, where she married, and the colored
girl marrying q man named Furness in
Bangor and moving to Brunswick in
1873. Not long ago the two old time
friends met once more, their meeting be-
ing described in The Brunswick Tele-
graph this week. The western lady, now
Mrs. c. NJ. Lambert, of Denver, Colo,
had made several Intellectual attempts to
find her old playmate, and a few weeks
ago, while in Portland, she asked a
colored man whom she met in a store IL
he knew such a woman as Mrs. Furness.
AS it happened the man could give the
required information and Mrs. Lambert
went to Brunswick. When entering the
room she looked the old colored woman
full in the face and quietly asked, "Do
you know me?" ''No," was the reply.
What don't thee know the Quaker?"
The old familiar Quaker form brought
instant recognition, and the two thus re-
united INDUCED in alternate smiles and
tears as they talked over their happy
lives in early childhood.-Lewiston Jour

Two brothers-in-law in New York were

Killing an elephant is by no means an
easy task. One of the two Indian ele-
plants given by the Prince Of Wales to
the Berlin geological gardens some years
ago lately killed his keeper, and the au-
thorities decreed his execution. So a
strong steel wire was prepared, and one
morning as Rostom walked out of his
age the moose was neatly dropped over
his head and forty-two men prepared to
draw 1t tight. But the great brute, feel
ing some discomfort, snapped the wire
in a second and is still enjoying exist

THE decadence Of rural New England
is no longer a matter of dispute. 1t has
not been matter of doubt for more than
decade. The fostering care exhibited
towards one class has been hurtful, and
in some cases, destructive to the interests
of other classes. The facts of this decay
dence Of rural New England are made
startling by the recently developed
calamities in the interests which have
been enjoying the exclusive attention Of
national legislation. A catalogue of the
abandoned farms Of New Hampshire is TO
be issued shortly by the state authority.
aud while the phamphlet is making ready
for distribution advance sheets have
been issued by N. J. Bachelor, the State
Commissioner on Agriculture and I'm
migration. These preliminary sheets
contain particulars of 1852 abandoned
farms widely distributed throughout
New Hampshire, with the acreage, the
asking price, etc They contain such
offers as 200 acres for 81 O00 225 acres
for $500, 800 acres for 81, 800, $3.50 acres
for 81 800, 200 acres for $500. 800 acres
for $1,000, 200 fer $5O0 1926 for 81 $50,
625 for $1,000 $50 for 5000, etc,
etc Mr. Bachelor says "These are un-
occupied farms, and have been reported
by the selectmen Of the various towns to
have fairly comfortable buildings. He
says further that Gin most Instances
these farms have not been abandoned be-
ceuse the soil has become exhausted. or
from the lack Of natural fertility, but
from various causes appearing in the
social and economic history Of the state.
Among the causes for this depreciation
free trade" is not mentioned. All Of
these localities had al Of the advantages
Of the tabled "home market" There
were the factories at hand to take the
farm produce But there was
also the fatal burden on the
farmer Of having an average
Of A par cent. added to everything that
he bought and an average Of AZ per cent.
depreciation on everything he sold. He
has been compelled to buy and sell in
hostile market, Farmers in Delaware,
Maryland, and in Pennsylvania suffer
from the same causes and they will
shortly suffer TO the same extent. Il is
inevitable that the rural class must pay
the tariff levied to support the factory
class. The home market" is a myth,
the per cents collected by the factories
have become disastrously real.
