wrinklcd her pretty brow showed that
she was troubled-''do you know any

Very little, dearest. he replied as
he drew her closer to him.
For q few minutes she remained
buried in thought, and then she looked
up at him again and said:
"You don't know, then, whether the
motorcycle principle is applicable to
sleighs, do you:"

don't, but don't think it is.'

''No big sleighing parties," she went
on; "none Of the lovemaking that is so

his eyes as she said:

FLORIDA Railroads ana Flowers.

TIE Spectator CT Tisa Outlook tho 9TH
Or day met q friend who had Just re-
turned from a journey in the south.
Some Of his experiences in that pleas
ant aud kindly land flied him with
amaZement, but the methods of railway
management seemed stranger perhaps
to him than anything else. lin Flori
da," he said, "'the railway conductor
was a gentleman, a real gentleman, who
treated his passengers as though they
were his personal guests. Tor their COM

and I venture to say that he would
gladly have done anything possible
within his power to crafty any wish Of
which he had knowledge. And what is
more, he appeared to have power to do
the gorgeous tropical flowers that grew
in abundance near the railway track
'Would you like some?' he asked, and
when they said that they would, he
pulled the bell rope and stopped the
train. With his brakesmen es assistants
he went out and gathered great arnifuls.

these lively flowers; then he signaled to
the engineer and the journey was re-
sumed
"That was fine," the Spectators
friend said, 'but could not help think
ing that it was a trifie shiftless at the
same time and also perhaps little dan
gerous, but as no harm came Of it it
may be that the conductor knew what
he was about. -. In the Spectator mind
there was no doubt that the conductor
knew what he was about and that he
did entirely the correct thing. In land
Of flowers, where the most beautiful
blossoms may be had for the gathering,
it is not fitting that men should be the
