it, but way down deep in bis eyes the
second time you looked you seemed to
notice suspicion of real sickness

He held a ticket to Tecumseh when
he got on the train at Topeka, and he
gave it up promptly to the conductor
on demand.
When the conductor came through
the train after he had left Tecumseh
he was surprised to see the same msn
sitting complacently in the same seat.

the conductor.

try"

A great many of the other passen-
gers were interested at once, and tho
argument continued. The conductor
noticed-he said afterwards-that the
man kept looking ont Of the window
as he talked aud did not seem TO be
in hurry. OF course the train Was
running all the time.
The farmer finally went down into
his pocket and got his purse. He was
not in a hurry about 1t, and after he
had opened it seemed lost in thought.

Must pay or get off, eh?' asked
the farmer.
Il said that, replied the man with

ment's silence. The farmer took an
other look out of the window.

The train stopped and the conduc-
tor went to the rear platform to see

farmer. This is the nearest railroad
that comes to it. am much obliged
to you for letting me off here. Have

lightly to the ground and was gone.
The train was two minutes late be-
fore the conductor could recover his
breath.

humble tone, and then he went and
kicked the newsboy.

curious collection of mail matter every

the door Of Mr.. George Vsnderbilt's
home. Since the fame Of his fine gifts
in charity's name and building of his
great Southern palace have gone forth,
this unsolicited correspondence, from
all parts Of the country, has increased
ten fold, flowing chiefly from the pens
Of women who have some fund or hos.
pital to which they wish this fortunate
and liberal handed gentleman to con-
tribute.

bits secretary and assistant, who
manage this daily budget, are sadly

word for word the pleading contents.

AUTUMNAl DREAMS.

When the maple turns TO crimson
And the sassafras 10 gold;
When the gentian's In the meadow
And the aster's on the void;
When the moon is Tapped in vapor
And the night is frosty cold;
When the chestnut burrs are opened
And the acorns drop like hail,
And the drowsy air Is startled
With the humping OF the fail,
With the drumming Of the partridge
And the whistling OF the quail
Through the rustling woods l wander,
Through the jewels OF the year,
From the yellow uplands calling,
Seeking her that is still dear;
She is near me in the autumn,
She, the beautiful, is near.
-Bdydrd Taylor.
