THE RETIRED BURGLAR.
A Meeting with Gentle Hearted Woman
Backed by IA Feroclous Dog.

A Meeting with n Gentle Hearted Woman
Backed by II Ferocious Dog.
"At the foot of the stairs in the front
hall Of farmhouse one night" said
the retired burglar, II stumbled over
something soft that turned out to be a
feather bed. If l had had grain of
sense at all, should have suspicioned
something from that, but l didn't. 1t
looked as though it had been Just tum-
bled down stairs and left there to be
carried off in the morning, and let it
90 at that and stepped into it and over
it to the first step of the stairs and on
up.
Stepping up on the fourth step,
kicked against string stretched across
the stairs and broke it. That made me
suspicious, but l never connected the
feather bed at the foot of the stairs
with it. l looked up. / expected it to be
connected with something there. And
it was, and it was coming down the
stairs at mo and filling up the whole
stairway. 1t was big feather bed.
Even then 1 didn't see that the one
coming down had anything to do with
the one down ON the floor, and at the
same time | couldn't understand why
anybody should roll anything like a
feather bed down on nybody-bulky,
to he sure, but so light that it was an
easy thing to stop.
II put up my hands to stop this one,
but might just as well have tried to
stop mountain. 1t was soft and
squashy on the outside, hut it weighed
IA ton. 1t just bowled me right over
backward, and fell ON the other feath-
er bed at the foot of the stairs. Then
l began to understand what that one
was for. 1t was to save the bones of the
man that WAS tumbled over by the ava
lanche bed.
81 lay there nearly smothered by the
bed on top and working out from under
it gradually.
81 hope you are not hurt?' | heard
somebody say from over the railing
along the hall up stairs, and said,
No, ma am, because it was female
voice, and am always polite to the
ladies, but would you mind telling me
what's inside the ono that came down.
"Oh she said, it's the summer
range, with the fatirons inside. Can
you lift it off, or shall l let the dog
come down and help you?'
And with that l heard dog scratch.
ing up stairs. | supposed it started him
up to hear himself spoken of, and
judged from the sound of his claws on
the carpet that he must have boon about
the size of u tiger and of about the same
kind Of disposition.
No, says, q can get clear of it,.
And did and stood up in the hall.
"'You won't carry off the other one,
will you?' she said.
And hearing the dog still scratch
ing up stairs, 1 said, No, won't ;
And didn't The lady appeared to be
gentle hearted enough bue ] knew you

The chief among airbrakes is the
Westinghouse. In its original and sim
plest form, patented i'll 1869, this brake
consisted of a small steam engine placed
on the locomotive which, taking steam
from the boiler, operated on an air
pump which compressed air into a
main reservoir. By line of pipe be-
meath the cars the compressed air was
admitted at the pleasure of the engi-
neer or driver, who controlled its flow
by three way cock to series of brake
cylinders, one under each car, the pis-
tons of which acted upon the ordinary
brake levers and applied the brakes to
the wheels. By reversing the three way
cock sufficient air was allowed to escape
from the cylinders, and the brakes were
off. Several improvements were after
ward made, by one of which the com
pressed air can be admitted almost in
simultaneously into the brake cylinders.
The brakes can be applied from any
part of the train. They are automatic
ally applied under each car on the
breakage of an axle or ON car or en-
CINE leaving the track.
