"a man who has never been in a
wreck wouldn't believe how long It takes
for the cars to get through piling up,"
said another. After the first crash
there is rebound clear to the back of
the train, and then the whole thing takes
another lunge, something gives way, and
maybe three or four more cars telescope
Then there's another jerk backward and
another lunge, and it seems as if the
cracking and groaning and tumbling
keep on for five minutes. When man
is mixed up with the trucks under the
whole stack it seems like an hour"
Make it an hour and half, said an
ex-brakeman as he scratched his nose
with the only clawlike finger remaining
at the end of twisted and shriveled
stump Of hand. The crowd knew how

London Streets in the Time OF George II.
There were certain dangers and in
conveniences walking along the streets
in London in the Seventeenth century.
The finest dress might be ruined by the
carelessness of dustman or a chimney
sweep; the custom of exposing meat on
open bulkheads led to many an irrepar-
able stain Of grease. Bullies pushed the
peaceful passenger into the gutter-it
was great time for street swagser;
BARRIERS blew the flour into wigs az open
doorways, causing violent wrath among
those outside; mad bulls careered up
and down the streets; men quarreled,
made a ring and fought it out before
the traffic could go on; pickpockets were
both numerous and dexterous; footpads
abounded in the open squares Of Lin
coins Inn, Bloomsbury, and Portman;
highwaymen swarmed on all the roads:
men servants were insolent and rascally;
the noise in the leading streets was deaf.
