The Happicst Thing.

The happiest thing | ever saw was a
barefooted boy. He carried mud be-
tween his toes and freckles on his face
and his heart full Of dreams and his
head full Of schemes and things. His
billy goat and his dog we're his daily
companions and he roamed over hills
and yelled because he had a yeller,
and whooped because he had a
whooper. At home he was the auto
crat of the breakfast table and the din
ner table and the supper table; at
school he was the democrat Of the
playground and the republican Of the
lunch basket-he wanted everything in
sight. He abhorred the bible and was
a sworn enemy Of castor oil and civil
ization. He was everlastingly under
indictment for high crimes and misde-
meanors. and was always trying to
#aE
prove an alibi. His father tried him
convicted him of lodging the truth one
day, and turned to him with a frown
and said: "My son, don't you go to
Sunday SCHOOL," Yes sir Don't
you study the bible there1" Yes sir"
well, can you tell me what it says
about a lle1" The boy scratched his
head and looked guilty. but finally re
covered his equilibrium and repl led

are caused by the system being poisoned

oyerwork or weakness do not eliminate.

issued:
The Southern Railway has taken steps
looking to the acquisition of the Louis
Vile. Evansville and ST. Louis Air Line.
and a plan for the reorganization o. the
company's affairs will soon be issued by
J. P. Morgan & Co based upon an agree
ment by the Southern to take over the
property after such reorganization. An
agreement has been reached with the
holders of the s.. .O60. 900 first mOrtga sc
bonds by which they will receive par IN
new per cent bonds for the principal
and cash for an agreed amount OF the
overdue interest on the old bonds
"A large proportion of the consolidated
5's. which are a first mortgage on the
west end Of the road. have been pur-
chased by interests friendly to the South
ern. and a decree for the sale of the entire
main line has been allowed under fore
closure OF these two mortgages. Under
these conditions the reOrganiZatiO should
be reasonably prompt.
THE proposed acquisition of this line
has no bearing upon trunk line rates or
trunk line questions. The object is merely
to give the Southern an entrance into St.
Louis to put il on an equal footing in
this respect with it's competitors. the
