A TOUCH OF NATURE.

Even street-Car Conductors Are Human.
Let all these cynical ones who are in
clined to doubt the humanity of the
average horse-car conductor read and
repent. 1t was on cable car coming
in from West Philadelphia some days
since that the amusing incident oc-
CURED. A fussy old man sat on the
edge of the seat and held his valise in
his hand so as to be able to jump and
run when his destination was reached.
He was going to catch q train and
sorely feared he should miss it. He
looked at his watch from time to time,
asked the conductor how long it usually
took to reach Broad street station, and
received the comforting reply: Some
times twenty minutes; sometimes an
hour" The conductor came and went
collecting fares, when suddenly the
old man asked him for the exact time,
according to his watch. The arbitrator
of that special oars destiny pulled out
his large timekeeper, looked at it mo-
ment, then in q PARKWAY tone said:
Eight o'clock, sharp" "Whatl" ex-
claimed the old man. 81 mean twenty
three minutes past two" stammered
the other,an the passengers heard and
wondered, while the girl next the old
man smiled in knowing way. She
had caught sight Of picture on the in
side Of the watch cover, and knew that
the sight of that portrait had for the
moment blotted all else from the mind
of the conductor. He quite forgot
where he was, remembering only his
last words to the original of the photo
graph the night before that fixed a
meeting for that very evening st

A Box That Will Discharge Its Loao
without shoveling.
Gravel is very useful material for
road building, but unless wagon box
for handling it cheaply can be con-
structed, far too little of 1t will be
used. Carts are better than most
wagons in use because the load can be
dumped, but, unfortunately, they are
not SO much in use as before the almost
exclusive adoption of horses for the
farm work. Carts also have the disad-
vantage Of leaving the load in heap
at one point, W hence it must be spread.
A wagon box that will discharge its
load without shoyeling. and spread It
as far as desired. can be made very
easily and at little expense. Two
planks eight inches wide and as long as
the box desired are placed on edge.

A sALLooNlsr,s ADVENTURE.
What Happened When He Came Down on
Hear.


what Happened When He Came Down on
a Bear.
81 killed grizzly bear once, myself"
said the balloonist, calmly, as the CALI
fornian finished particularly blood
curdling tale. We urged him to tell
the story, and at last his modesty being
satisfied e,spoke as follows:
II started from Denver to the Pacific
coast in small balloon a few years
ago 1t was during the warmest part
of the summer, and l anticipated de-
lightful journey in mid air across the
Rockies.
81 cut the ropes at o'clock in the
morning An ascent of perhaps half
mile brought me to a current of air
which set steadily to the westward.
At noon I was many miles from Dem
yer.
II approached the high plateau, and
the air became SO rare that it would no
longer sustain my balloon, and landed
without difficulty at the brink of an
immense canyon
"a little whirlwind struck the bal
loon; 1t reared, twisted and collapsed
leaving me helpless and alone in the
wild mountains
II looked down the chasm. The mid
day sun threw his rays clear to the bot
tom, and could see tiny thread OF
water far beneath. 1t looked like vein
of silver.
"a large stone lay near. toppled 1t
OFF and timed it's fall lone, two, three,
five, ten seconds, and the water splashed,
but the sound never reached me-
''Some noise caused me to turn about.
big grizzly was shun ing toward me.
His awkward and comical appearance
made me laugh; and the sound of laugh
ter caused him to stop. He stood up his
full height and looked at me in amaze
ment
drawing my small revolver l began
to shoot at him Then he got mad and
made grand holiday rush
"A parachute lay in the little car.
and seized it and sprang far out into
the chasm just as he reached the place
where had stood.
'Tn his blind rage he went over the
precipice One moment he seemed to
pause, casting look Of reproach and
silent malediction toward me. Then
he shot down out of sight
II followed him slowly and found
him lying half submerged on the brink
of the silver stream
with some difficulty 1 got him out
into the deeper current, for found
that what seemed but throb Of water
was In reality considerable stream
81 climbed on his huge body, and.
using my parachute for sail. we sped
merrily down the canyon.
Just at nightfall we emerged into o
more open country, and I moved my
craft long enough to cut from his juicy
loin steak, which l broiled on the
bank
"All night I journeyed through
mighty forest and gloomy gorge.
"At daybreak came to small town,
where the railroad touches the Grand
river I jumped into the stream and
swan ashore.
my mute preseryer spun around in
the water. looked at him sadly. The
memory of last nights supper came to
my mind; felt that loved him A
transitory glow Of grateful triumph
shone for moment In his filmy eyes;
then the waters closed over him. and he
sank from sight forevermore In the
bosom of the deep."-Chicago Inter
Ocean.

The medicine vender Is now frequently

coction. From the old-time plain certi-
ficate cure, the next step was to print
the picture of the person on whom the
miracle was performed.
Now, the foremost In this race for
trade are introducing personally to
sufferers the cured person, whose per-

It may be In terestinr to Know

that when excursion rates are made to
Chicago for people who live in the East
to enable them to attend the Worlds Fair
next year. it is contemplated by the
western roads to also make excursion
rates from Chicago to all principal BUSH
ness and tourist points in the West,
Northwest and Southwest, SO that those
who desire to spend few weeks among
their friends IN the Great West, may
have an opportunity of so doing without
mourning much additional expense. 1t
may be well to consider this subject in
advance of actual time of starting. and
the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Rail-
way Co. has issued maps and time tables
and other instructive reading matter,
which it will be glad to furnish free Of
