Southern railroads have a reputation
for slow travel, and In some cases it Is
well merited. A western travelling

deal of annoyance from this particular
failing, but up to the time of the follow

mensely guying the conductors, train
men or any person having to do with
the roads about their rapid transit He
was travelling one afternoon on an eX-
ceptionally slow train, which came to
stop every now and then without any
apparent cause. After expressing him
self very audibly to the passengers, he
resigned himself to the inevitable and
dozed off into short maps, which were
interrupted by the sundry jerks of the
train, at which he complained. The pas
sengers showed their annoyance at
these complaints by angry looks. The
last apology had been that the cattle OBJ
structed the track. The train had
started again and proceeded about ten
minutes when it halted with jerk. Up
walked the impatient traveller and
petulantly remarked: Dear, dear! 1
suppose, conductor, this worse than
slow train has struck another herd of
cattle" Struck another one! Not
much" replied the conductor. We've
simply caught up again with the first
herd we ran into; that's ALL" The trav-

Smoking KIlIs Germs.

Smoking is q preventative of disease,
according to a celebrated Viennese PRO
fessor of chemistry. He estimates that
the chances of a smoker catching diph-
liberia, smallpox, cholera or other con-
tagious diseases whose germs are in
hailed through the throat and lungs, as
compared to the non-smoker. one in
twenty-eight. He asserts that smoking
tends to check the development of bac-
terra and kill them. It is well known
that smoking is forbidden by physicians
and employees in laboratories given over
to the cul ivation and propagation OF
germs OF different diseases for expert
ments. Smoke kills these minute Or
ganisms, and atapplies to a chemists
workshop applies equally to the human
