LAWRENC EBURG. TENNESSEE FRIDAY DEC. IA 1894.

There was no water on the brain
of the poet who penned the follw-
ing: "Will merchant who is wise
ever cease to advertise? Yes when
the trees grow upside down; when
the beggar wears a crown; when ice
forms upon the sun; when Johnny
gets his gun; when gold dollars get
too cheap when women secrets keep;
when the fish forgets to swim; when
old Satan sings hymn; when the
girls so back on gum; when the
small boy hates drum; when no
politician schemes; when mince pies
make pleasant dreams; when a
drummer has no brass; when these
things come to pass-then the mer-
chant who is wise may neglect to
advertise.-Ex.

includes all the rest of the country.
The fare for each zone is 1Od. first
class, Sd. second and sd third; while
the rates are reduced one-half for
parties of workmen.
What the new system has accom-
plished is shown by report just issued
by the Hungarian government, dealing
with the working Of the state railways
fer the years 1891 and 1892 From
5000. 900 passengers carried in 1883. the
year previous to the introduction Of
the zone system. the number has risen
to over 2s,5o0. 600, an increase of ai6
per cent. This result is almost entire
ly due to the new system, the augment
alton being six times greater than on
the Austrian railways during the same
period.
The receipts have improved to the
extent of 20 per cent The third-class
express trains running beyond the
short distances. The growth of the
traffic in the first zone by the ordinary
trains has been as much as 627 per
cent, mostly in the third-class. 1t is
noteworthy that the first and four

RAIL RUMBLINGS.

THE Brotherhood of Railway Trat,.
men at their recent session in Boston
adopted resolutions favoring the aboli-
ton of Sunday trains.
THE Pennsylvania Railroad company
on its various locomotives that run be-
tween Jersey City and Pittsburgh
burns over $4,000 tons of coal day.
The cost of the coal each day is about
$40, 600.
FIVE years ago all berths on sleepers
were made up with the feet to the en-
CINE. but now on most lines the prac-
tice is reversed. On an elevator no one
objects to going up, though descent
is often disagreeable.
A SINGLE order for seventy-one stand
ard railway locomotives was placed
with an eastern engine-building firm
bv a western railroad company a
short time ago. Forty-two are to be
built Immediately, the remainder early
in the year. 1t is one of the largest
single orders on record.
DOUBTLESS the announced economies
on the Pennsylvania railroad will re-
call to many persons Tom SCOTS early
stroke of economy when he saved SC
many thousands a year by simply Or
dering that the ''bright work" Of the

of a hundred engineers, should be
