h Pony Express.

W. t. Bailey contributes to The Cen
tury an article ON 1.-The Pony Express, !"
between st. Joseph, Mo, and San Fran
cisco. Mr.. Bailey says:
At first the schedule was fixed at 10
days, an average of s miles an hour
from start to finish. This was cut down
to 8 days, requiring an average speed of
10 miles. The quickest trip made was
in carrying President Lincoln's inau
gural address, which was done in z days
and II hours, an average speed Of 10. 7
miles per hour, the fastest time of any
one rider being 100 miles, from Smiths
Creek to Fort Churchill, by Pony Bob,
in s hours and 10 minutes, or Ia
miles per hour. Considering the dis
lance and difficulties encountered, such
as hostile Indians, road agents, floods
and snowstorms, and accidents to horses
and riders, the schedule was main
tanned to an astonishing degree. The
service created tho greatest enthusiasm
not only among the employees, but also
in the ranks of stage employees, freight
ers and residents along the route. To
aid a pony" in difficulty was n priv
ilege, and woe be to the nan who would
so much as throw a stone in the way.

The Neapolltan and his Horse.

The Italians arc not remarkable for
kindness to animals, but rather the re-
verse. They have, however, a story of
a Neapolitan driver notorious for his i'll
treatment of his horse. After death the
man presented himself at the gate Of
paradise, but was refused admittance.
He was recommended, however, to APP
ply at the neighboring paradise of ami
mails, if naply he might find favor
there. The driver did so, and, 10, the
door was opened to him by the very

his blows and curses, transformed
into "a celestial steed of wondrous beau
ty. But, alas, the horse had not yet
learned forgiveness, and here, too, the
driver met with rejection -Westmin-

Nine. PATHS Burglar Aiarms.

Visiting Nine. PATHS superb castle In
Wales. IL guest not long ago had a very
curious experience. He CHANGED to
open his window in the middle Of the
night. and, to his surprise. bells be-
gan to ring in every quarter OF the
grounds.
Very much scared, but realizing that
he had, after all. only set a burglar
alarm going. the guest descended to re-
assure the household, when he instant
IN found himself In danger from a
dozen rowing dogs, who had obtained
their freedom and were growing and
swapping In the ugllest manner.
Al breakfast next morning he learned
all about this curious fad OF Nine. Pat

Inns a great dread of burglars. Some
time ago n gang OF these gentlemen
from London attempted to obtain adj
mittance. but were defeated In their
object. and since that date Nine. Patti
has set up every kind of burglar alarm
that exists.
The queer part about one OF these Is,
however. well worth noticing. Her
largest dog, an enormous brute, who
might he relied ON to cope with a little
army OF thieves, is kept vigorously
chained In a patent kennel, but the
chain Is 80 arranged that should any
one attempt to open a window or a
door In the castle the dog is released
aud free TO rove at his pleasure, It be
ing presumed that he would at once
make for the burglars and do his duty.
The Idea Is ingenious and, as the guest
discovered, not a little dangerous.

minutes later the inspector would get
ON the car and demand tickets all
around. OF course Twain had mono to

H DUTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should be Carefully
Guided In Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results
from q mother ignorance; or more
frequently from a mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter
Tradition says woman must suffer"
and young women are SO taught.
There Is a little truth and a great deal
of exaggeration in this. If a young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment and her mother should see
that she gets 1t.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters TO q physician for examina-
ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself TO Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is
Lynn, Mass.
The following letterfrom Miss NAME
F. JOHNSON, Centralia, Pa shows what
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
Pinkham helped her:
"My health became so poor that I
had to leave school. l was tired all the
time, and had dreadful pains in my
side and back. / was also troubled
with irregnlarity of menses ! was
very weak, and lost so much flesh that
my friends became alarmed. My
mother, who Is a firm believer in your
remedies from experience, thought per-
haps they might benefit me, and wrote
you for advice. followed the advice
you gave, and used Lydia e pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as
you directed, and am nov as we'll as |
ever was. | have gained flesh and have

instead Of being solid the top of the
cone Is cut off, making an opening in

it a metal cap ON a hinge. The cap is
perforated with a number Of holes to
permit Of the circulation Of water
through the trap.
The minnow trap is slung horizon

die on top, TO which rope is made fast.
Suitable bait to attract minnows is
placed in the trap, which is then low.
cred into the water. The cone with the
opening at the inner end in the bottom
is in effect like the opening into an eel
or fish trap. II is easy for the minnows
to get through 1t into the trap in search
of the bait, but hard for them TO get
out. When the trap has been raised,
the captured minnows are got out by
opening the cap ut the other end OF the
trap.-New York Sun.
