Travellers Must Be Content.

In some parts of the southern states,
where, happily for them, the people
are not in such ceaseless hurry as peo-
pie are in the nervous north, no one
thinks Of exacting punctuality from
railroad trains. They take them when
they come, and arrive when they get
there, and are content.
A fretful Yankee drummer, who, at a
country railway station, had been fun
ing because train had not arrived an
hour after schedule time, received a
lesson in patience from an elderly coun-
tryman who came in with his gripsack
and asked the station master:
tWhat time do the train fer Savan-
nah git here, boss?' u .s..5.s.
"Somewhar bout nightfall, " answer
ed the stationman.
.'An what time do she git ter savan.
nah?''
"Somewhar bout mawnin.'
Then the countryman, perfectly salts
fed with the information, folded his
legs in a corner and settled down to an
hour or more of philosophical comfort.

RACE Misalliances.

The German servant girl in Chicago
who has married an Americanized Chi
nese may not regret her act, as the Co.
lestial is usually said to make kind
husband. Girls Of her class usually
make marriages Of this sort to secure an
easy life, and as they are not sensitive,
they manage to escape the moral suffer
ing that falls to the lot Of better bred
woman who make misalliance. Prob
ably the worst victims Of ill assorted
marriages in the United States are the
girls of good family who have married
Indians. In every case such girls have
endured misery and shame and have
finally appealed to the divorce courts
for freedom. San Francisco Chronicle.

Tobacco is said by some to have de-
moralizing effect. An Indiana man
taught his dog, q very fine setter, to
chew tobacco. Now the dog comes into
the house by the back door, never scrapes
his feet on the mat, never goes to church,
is careless at his meals, gets burs in his
tail, goes with a lower grade Of dogs
and is beginning to take an interest in
politics.
A goat, it is we'll known, is fond of
tobacco, but he freely gives away his
butts.
All kinds Of troubles and complica-
tions are ascribed to tobacco. It is said
to cause tobacco blindness. Still we
have never found any friends Of ours to
be afflicted with it when we have in.
