Comfort for Mnmen.

Some time ago Pullmans Palace Car
company built three parlor cars for
the B. & 0.'s New York trains, and the
radical departure from other cars OF
this character lay in the toilet room
for ladies, which was eight feet in
length. Recently the same company
has built eight new sleepers for the
New 9ork-St. Louis line of the b. & o.,
and the designer of the ears has evil
IDENTIFY been impeiled by the popular
ity Of the ladies retiring room in the
parlor cars to give to the ladies a vast
deal more space than they ever had be-
fore in sleeping cars. These new cars
are said by the Pullman people to be
the finest they ever turned out, and
the ladies' retiring room is exceeding
ly commodious, and contains, besides
other toilet necessities, a dresser with
a long pier glass. The cars are fin
ished in Yermillion wood, decorated
with tnlaid marquetry work, and the
upholstery on the backs and seats is
entirely new and different from any
heretofore used, being a sort of mo-
quette with a dark green border and
center pattern Of bright color A sim
liar design of commentator has been
applied to the ceiling, giving the ear
an arabesque effect. They are also
supplied with all the modern appl
ances, such as wide vestibules anti
telescoping device, air pressure water
system and are lighted with Pintsch
gas. a very pleasing effect is obtained
by a1e oval windows OF opalescent
glass, the first that has been used in
the construction Of the sleeping cars.

The weather was warm even for the
first OF May and the snow on the
mountain-side was melting rapidly.
The canyons and gorges were Wild,
rushing torrents, roaring and tumbling
down to the sunny plain below, where
they became tranquil rivers-but all
were rivers, even the little brooks,
rendered so by the recent rains and
thaws.
Far up the mountain-side nestled a
dot of house, and in its doorway
this pleasant afternoon stood young
woman with a baby in her arms.
She appeared to be anxlously look
ing for some one who came not, Tor
presently, she disappeared in the
house, only to return to the door with
a bonnet on her head and a shawl
wrapped about the baby.

ind papa, Ray, darling. He never
stays away from his dinner unless he
Is detained by something unusual"
She was a strong young lass, accu5-
toned to the mountains all her life, to
their dangers and pitfalls as well as
their rugged sides, and her steps, even
incumbered with the plump youngster
were light and free
Faith Dixon was a brave girl natur-
ally, but she had never supposed her
self to be a heroine, or was conscious
OF all the strength she possessed when
confronted with great peril
Eagerly she pressed forward around
the mountain-side, where she knew
her husband had been at work en-
deavoring to turn the course Of
reckless mountain stream little away
from his few acres of tillable land
When she reached the place where
her husband had been at work, she
found his tools, and even his old jean
coat lay near them, but no Perry him
self was in sight.
Faith looked about her with wildly
beating heart, and lifted her strong,
clear voice in loud call
Perry! Oh, Perry
No answer. What could it mean?
What had become of her husband?
She turned her steps now further
up the mountain. where, near her, the
gorge was deeper, and the water
dashed along more fiercely.
On. on she pressed, clinging to
powders and vines for support; little
Ray in her arms enjoying it all in
baby delight, giving forth now and
then a joyous little COO
She had gone to where the mountain
stream swept in through the narrow
canyon walls, and it's roar was almost
deafening.
Here she paused and peered down

Mortified cry, for there, on a narrow
ledge many feet below her, lay her
husband!

But even as she spoke he moved,

over which the blood was flowing free

But even as she spoke she thought
of her baby and how he would impede
her progress.
IN have to leave you. darling, and
I'm so afraid; but your fathers life
demands It."
She carried Ray away some dis
lance, where a bush grew. Under
this she placed him first tying his
chubby ankle with one apron-string
while with the other she made it fast
to the bush.
God keep my baby boy, she
breathed, as she dashed away.
The water was slowly bur surelv
nearing the poor, prisoned father. He
watched it as it crept up inch by inch.

also?"

then his motheg S voice. raised into

turned his mud-daubed rosy face to-
ward her, chirruped a gay cry of de-

Faith never knew how she dragged
/ herself to the spot and looked down
upon that which she felt must be
death. TO her child at least
At first she could see nothing. The
ledge wherein her husband had been
was almost covered with water
Dead" she moaned-"both dead!
Oh, how can | bear It? Too late! too
late!"
Then she fancied she heard voice,
faint call, and looking closer in that
mad whirl of waters, she beheld Per-
ry clinging to the lower end of the
ledge yes-with something in his
armsl
Make the ropes fast quickly,
WHEY" he called; q cannot cling here
very many minutes"
There was a bush, a hardy one and
strong, quite near To this Faith tied
the ladder she had constructed on her
way up the mountain, and, with a
prayer to God, flung it over the wall
and guided it with her own hands un-
til it swung rear her fast weakening
and nearly fainting husband
He looked IN and saw-not a mere
dangling, frail rope as he had ex-
pected that he would have had great
difficulty in climbing, and perhaps
could not have climbed at all incum-
bered as he now was with the baby,
but a real ladder, rudely constructed,
but with knots and straps here and
there
Wondering how Faith could have
done it, he seized it and began slowly
to drag himself UP, up, feeling
strange dizziness creeping over him,
but not only his life, but perhaps his
child's depended upon his reaching
solid earth once more.
On, on, slowly, slowly, for poor, lit
tie, limp Ray hung like a lump of lead
on his arm; but at last he felt Faiths
strong, young arms seize him and pull
him over the dangerous edge of the
canyon and he was saved!
MY baby oh, my baby! is he
dead?" moaned the poor mother.

fell by his skirts, and it threw me off

The baby opened his sweet eyes, and

with a lusty squall for company
But the rope, said Perry, when he
could speak calmly Il don't see how

"Our boy was absolutely helpless. His
lower limbs were parely zel, and when we
used electricity he could not feel it below
his hips. Finally VIC let the doctor 90 as he
did not seem to help our son and we nearly

lives in Canada wrote advising the use Of

This was when our boy had been on tho
stretcher for an entire year and helpless
for nine months. In six weeks after taking
the pills we noticed signs Of vitality ia his

her chair around and with a shock

Because you We're so busy. You
