while she was away, wrote q farewell let
ter to their friends and signed both their
names to 1t. Then the moment Mrs.

The street car company have

chance to look up the cross streets
for passengers as they trot along
If the street car company can only
train them to come to halt when
they see a man or woman in a run,
gesticulating wildly, they will fill a
long-felt want. The mules have
the advantage over the driver, for
they have their eyes in the side OF
their head while the average street
car driver has his in front, and new
er thinks of turning them to the
right or the left, we presume for
the reason they are AFRAID OF get
