POO BAHS OF TRAVEL.
The General Passenger Agents and The
Services to the Public.


Services to the Public.
General passenger agents know what
it costs to 60 anywhere, remain there
any length Of time and come back by an
other route They are, in short, the Pooh
Bahs Of the realm of travel Without
them the average human being with
burning desire to so somewhere would
be as blind man Ii Il crowded, unfa-
miliar thoroughfare, Us a ship without
a rudder or bird Of passage deprived
of one of it's wings Think of world
without the ever present folder" and
it's impartial, never Overdrawn claims
of superiority for the line to which it
owes it's existence. Life in it would in
deed be without sufficient compensation
The art of advertising was an unknown
quantity until the general passenger
agent came upon the scene and with his
magic wand transformed dull nothings
into bright, realistic something's To
him the steepest grade and the sharpest
curve are Of little consequence. Grades
and curves and distances that have de-
fed the skill of superior and engineer
disappear before the morning sunlight
Under his manipulation ponds become
lakes, hills grow to be mountains, groves
expand into forests, rills swell into riv-
ers, and all that has been thought I'M
interesting, or worse, suddenly bursts
upon the world as thing Of beauty
and JOY forever.
Seriously the travelling public owes
much, very much, to the general pas
senger agent Not only has he brought
to notice and to popularity innumerable
deserving localities that otherwise
would have "blushed unseen" but he
has made it possible to visit these, as we'll
as others longer and better known, with
an expenditure of time and exertion and
expense insignificant in it's proportions
when compared with that of years gone
by. He is ever watchful of the needs
and whims and eccentricities of travel
ers and quick to provide for their every
requirement. He is an intermediary be-
tween the traveller and the railway or
steamship company, ever ready to serve
the interests of both without prejudice
to either and never shrinking from any
proper obligation. In the early days of
coming and going by rail and steamer
he was not known. Now he is one of
the most important factors in the whole
warp and wool Of travel, and for him
the future is full Of added powers and
increasing honors. Magazine of Travel

"1n 1879 had an eruption appear on my left
leg and arm. Sometimes it would ulcerate and
on account of it was unable to work great
deal OF the time. I had seven doctors examine
and treatme without success. Some called it pso-
rasis, some eczema, some salt rheum and one
knowing one called it prairie itch. All the doc
tors in the county had trial but none did me a
particle of good. Ispent all my spare money
trying to get relief. Finally was persuaded to
try Hoods Sarsaparilla- After using one and
half bottles saw the benefit. I have now
used the third bottle and am cempletely cured.

Sober Thoughts.

Death makes every man financially bank
rupt. The moment he dies he becomes
poor. There is nothing in the Beyond
which he can purchase with cash No
shroud. therefore has pocket The gold
from no mine, the money from no mint
passes current in heaven The angels
carry no purses. and the Jingle of coins is
never heard You will not get what you
want by paying for it, neither will you lack
what you need because YOU have no money
What you have and what YOU lack will de
pend wholly on your deserving.
\ daily laborer can make as much out
of his soul as his employer can make out
of his Neither riches nor poverty impede
spiritual progress One can be as noble in
two humble rooms as in the costly man
sion, for whether You are in the one or in
the other the same events happen to you
and they must be controlled by the same
qualities of character
Sorrow is sorrow wherever YOU find ii.
and no bank account can purchase I'M
munity. \ grave is grave. whether
there is a costly monument above it or only
headstone of marble When YOU reckon
with actual experiences you discover they
are independent of wealth or poverty and
come TO all alike, and when YOU look at the
hearts of men YOU find the same measure
of human nature in them all
Now. when we take our departure. what
shall we carry with us?
Death is terrible despot. When he
comes he takes no note of where or how
YOU have lived lie ignores all class dis
tinctions with a kind of contempt He
does not care whether your body is clothed
in fine linen or in rags. He has been sent
for your soul, your naked soul pure or i'm
pure. and that alone viii he take with him
He strips your environment from you as
you would throw aside tattered garment
The only thing he will allow you to carry
absolutely the only thing-is your char
acter.
When YOU reach heaven YOU are what
you are. neither more nor less; and your
surroundings in this life are of no account
whatever. If YOU have done well, then
you win have reason to be satisfied; if you
have done i'll, you viii see that you have
made mistake That is the stern and
relentless truth of the case.
When we came into the world we
brought great possibility When We
leave it we shall carry the record of what
We have done aud whether that is to be
little or much depends entirely upon our
selves
