KANSAS CITY TO CINCINNATI
WITHOUT CHANGE OF CARS.
The Wabash railroad is now running
through cars to Cincinnati on their fast
mail train. leaving Kansas City at $50
every evening, making practically no
change of cars from Kansas City to
Louisville, Cincinnati, Washington,
Baltimore and Philadelphia, and short
ening the time to all above places from
five to eight hours. The Wabash Is the
only line that does this.

sanity could he traced, and not Il few peo-
pie erased this vegetable of the ef1ete but
ever eifulgent East from the daily bill OF

Perhaps the part that the tomato played
in any insanity case may be traced to the
early rising of the man who, with a pair
of sugar tongs, went forth into the starry
dawn 10 eliminate the potato bugs from
the plants.
rus sccIns reasonable, from the fact that
farmers are in the habit OF rising early and,
come to think OF it, the statistics on the
subject show that asylums are practically
filled by the horny handed disciples of Q.
H. FlaccuS, Who once MIXED the Roman
esque beeve and belabored the refractory
Sanine mule upon the shores OF the classic
Tiber.
1t is 2 wen accepted fact that insanity
is akin to genius, bat now it also appears
to be akin TO farming, or at least to that
feature of tue art which may be briefly de-
scribed and set forth under the general
head or stepping upon tie dewy morning

That many farmers are insane goes
without saying, but if the opinion OF the
humblest of 1aymeu is worth anything.
early rising is not the cause of it. IL
there is a good cause for it, it is more

safe to say that the American who places

French wines are sent to France from

the genuine article.
The surreptitious way of doing things may
soon prove a great stimulus to American
art, and the painter who is now obliged
to draw mantillas and shirt waists on
wood for livelihood, may fly to the sum-
mer studio at Dingman's Ferry, and paint
in the finest French style, and with the

He continued:-'Tf your congress would

''The incident has, Of course, created
