In speaking OF the varied charms OF
scenery along the road, writer in
Frank Leslit's few months ago gave the
following fine description: As n rule,
the Chesapeake & Ohio follows n water
course, which accounts in a measure for
the interest its scenery imparts. But
the exception is found Just before the
Greenbrier joins the New river, where
nearly ten miles in distance is saved by
o mile.and-a-quarter tunnel, which
leaves tho banks OF the Greenbrier on
the east to join it again on the west, the
waters OF the river flowing for nearly
eleven miles from portal TO portal. AS
the train reaches New river, at Hinton,
the canons grow holder, and the train
seemingly clings TO the very cliffs, the
mountain streams tumbling in cataracts
down the rocks go near the train as to
send their fresh spray sprinkling against
the windows OF the moving cars. Bowl
ders Of the size of-houses fill the river
bed, checking the fury OF tho mad tor
rent and creating succession of
rapids; ledge Of rocks parallels
tho river a thousand feet above it,
and ever and anon juts out in peculiar
and fantastic shapes, forming the mp.
pearance Of castles, sentinels, Inastodons,
and other curious figures. Hawks Nest,
on the banks of New River, is a grand
specimen OF Natures curiosities. The
cliff rises perpendIcularly 100 feet
above New River, and its crest appar-
emily overhangs the railroad train, a
gigantic nest in appearance. So re-
markable was this scene in its grandeur
that Chief Justice Marshall, then an
engineer, was sent by one OF Virginia's
early Governors, by roadway across the
mountains, to make survey of it. The
Now and Gauley rivers unite to form tho
Kanawha, tho celebrated Kanawha Falls
being only Il mile from their juncture.
This is lovely water scene, and as the
gamiest oil fish are abundant just beneath
the Falls, and there is n good hotel at
hand, it is much frequented by the ang-
ler Only fow hours, and the Ohio
River is reached, q stream so attractive
in its graceful hills and fertile meadows
as to merit the appollation, "La Belle
Riviere." Along It's banks the route OK
tends 100 miles to Cincinnati, which is
reached by q S., 900, 900 double-tracE iron
bridge across the Ohio, constructed by
the Chesapeake 4 Ohio Railway Com
p,Ay, and having the longest truss span
in the world.

der how much of my success Is due to
the lovely face copied9''
''The two lovely faces,n laughed my
mistress, blowing kiss to me.
My master smiled, and twirled his
mustache, and looked 50 happy that
wanted to know what It all meant, and
trotted up to them to find out, when
Patrick must needs come mp and chuck
me of to breakfast. I was very mad,
for I hated not to know what IL was all
about. -.. -
After that morning things changed q
little. My master was never at home
any more. The talks under the willow
were over, and I only saw him In the
early morning when he would come out
with high hat and gloves on and pat
me in absent-minded way, and say to
my mistress:
"You don't mind my going to town
to-day, do you, darling. Now that
things are beginning to look brighter
for us ought to go round amongst the
boys little"
My mistress used to smile and say
she liked him to go, but noticed that
after he had said the same thing every
morning for about six weeks, my mis-
tress smiled less and seemed to be less
cheerful when she told him she liked to
have him go.
Quite a wet spell came after this. I
saw nothing at all Of my mistress, but
used to see my master driving away
with James and Patrick as usual. It
worried me to know what was the mat
ter. James could not tell me any thing,
and none of the dogs came to the barn,
SO absolutely knew nothing. I could
not stand it, and set to work to call my
mistress with all my might the first
morning that it was fine enough for her
to get out.
Some hours passed-Ikept on calling,
but nobody came. At last Patrick put
his head over the fence.
THAT calf beats allr' was all he said,
and disappeared.
A few moments later out came my
mistress. Her eyes were red; she had
evidently been crying. She came up to
me and was so sorry to see her sad
that licked her hand and tried to COM
fort her. At this she broke down COM
pletely, and laying her head on my neck
began to cry.

and find out. Nearly a year ago lady
and gentleman had left their country
home to winter in New York. One
afternoon as the lady was sitting alone
in her room word was brought to her
that Miss Ethel Cox wanted to see her.
''Miss Ethel Coxl" said the lady, "Is
she waiting in the parlorp"
"No, ma'am," was the answer, sit
was a telephone message. Miss Ethel
Cox wants you to call on her at once"
When the boy went away the lady sat
and thought. She did not know any
person named Ethel Cox, and being Of
Jealous turn of mind, she concluded 10
was some female person Of her hus-
bands acquaintance who had had the
temerity to telephone for him. When
somewhat later her husband came In
she said never q word about Miss Ethel
Cox, although she was boiling over with
remarks; she bided her time until he
was going to bed and had his boots off,
then quite sweetly she told him Of the
lady who was wanting to see him inn
mediately.
The gentleman protested that he
knew no person named Ethel Cox, but
despite his most eloquent disclaimers
his wife went to her bed distant and
Skept1caL.
Next morning came letter from the
country home telling the news that q
heifer calf had been born the preceding
day. The lady immediately hurried off
home, for the COW was an especial ia
vorite Of hers and she wanted to see
that 1t had been properly cared for.
When she reached home she began to
scold because she had not been told
about the calf sooner-and her sister,
who was an Englishwoman and who
was caring for the house In the lady's
absence, told her that she had sent her
word by telephone and had been sur
prised that she had not arrived the day
before. Then 1t all came out. The
sister had telephoned about q heifer
calf, and the operator, unaccustomed to
the English accent, had mistaken
''heffer kawf" for ETHEL Cox"
When 1t all came out 1t was too good
q joke against the lady to be sup
pressed, SO the calf was named Ethel
Cox, and when I tell you that that ID
my name you viii know just what
am-neither boy nor girl, but just q
