SAVED BY HIS CHEEK.
A Railroad Depot Agents Experience
With the General 1anager.

A dozen Of us were waiting at rail-
read station in Georgia. As nobody
knew how long we must wait it was
only natural that one after another
should 90 to the ticket window and in
Iuire.
''Dunno," was the grulf response to
each inquirer.
That was about what was expected,
yet it didn't please. We got together
on the platform and discussed the mat
ter, and while we were talking man
drove up to the platform from the
town. Seeing the crowd, he came over
and asked what was up. When he had
been informed, he replied:
II will try my luck with him and see
how l come OUT
He made the same inquiry, and the
agent looked up and replied:
How many more times am l going
to tell you dunno:"
Not more than once said the
gentleman as he reached for tele-
graph blank.
Five minutes later he showed us the
dispatch. 1t was to q station agent 30
miles away, and it read, Leave as
sistant in charge and come down and
take full possession here" The name
at the end Of the dispatch was that Of
the general manager Of the load.
''How much?" he asked as he hand
ed it in to the agent, who was also OPP
orator.
This goes d. h." replied the man
after reading it over.
He began ticking it off as cool as you
please, and when he had finished he
rose up, put on his coat and overcoat
and came into the waiting room.
Have you any idea when that train
will be here?' quietly asked the man
who cent the despatch.
"She's just coming around the curve
now. All aboard.' replied the agent.
And as the train drew up he was the
first one to board it, leaving the office
to run itself till the other man could
come down.
did we come out much ahead on
that deal:' | asked Of the manager as
we got seated on the train.
"Well, moo, | don't think we did, -
he drawled. Il guess III send the

and raise his salary s. a month";"

/ large mess of it, but we shut our
eyes and took it down at one great
guIp, and frightened our belt to hold it
there. We feel better already. We
hope 10 get over it in time.
But this can only be done by taking
ones mind of, it and putting it on
other things. 1t won't do to so
around talking about it and retching
to see if it has firm hold on ones in
nard5 In such case the agony is pro-
hinged, and there is chronic danger of
di-tressiul upheaval.
Moreover, there are certain sauces
and post-matutinal correc,ives and di-
gestives which you may send dowE
after that will give it staying quail
ties, SO to speak. We have put on
top Of our free silver crow several doses
of Republican villiany. We have
covered it with antitrust sauce; we
have sprinkled it with the capsicum of
monopolistic robbery; we have hashed
it with republican campaign fund cor
ruption, and washed it down with the
rnsings of general republican rascality.
No, we "don't banker after crow as
a steady diet, but we kin eat il" when
you have all these things to help it
down. We don't charge our friends
who are guzzling and gaggling and
delaying anything for these sugges-

As an infant he kicked vigorously,

When his school teacher heard him
make speech at six years, he pre-
dicted then and there he would be
president.
When he went hunting at ten years
aud killed sixteen ducks at one shot
the neighbOrs declared with one voice
he would be president.
When he ran away from school and
spent the whole day fishing his mother
did not whip him, for she saw therein
a certain sign that he would yet be

the bicycle must play lis part; they
