An IdxII of the Trolley car.

Just twenty-four days from now l shall be married, and I am the happiest man in the whole world-being so far ahead of you that you'll never catch up with me in the procession of joyF'
 He was a trolley car motorman who spoke, and he expects promotion In his work as well as In the sense of quittins single misery for welded blessedness-N sunny haired sunny-faced. blue-eyed young fellow, ready to cry with the Count of Monte Cristo.
 "The world Is mine"
 There is only one joy in the world like that which illumined his bronzed, hand- some face, and that is that same kind of joy
 "1 am very happy" he said to the toil- CT of the night who sat near him on the front seat of the trolley car. T saw her last night, and said to her. DO you know this Is the first day of September and it's just twenty-five days till we get married? Are you getting scaredT
 " Not bit scared she said, impn- siveiy-the twenty-ffth day from now will be a day of happiness for me? She spoke 1t out straight, and, do you know I believe I could jump over that tele- graph pole, am so happy. Say! I'll swear to you I am the happiest man in the valley because she's mine, she's mine' she's miner
 He looked ahead along the long straight lines of steel that gleamed like ribbons of silver in the softened sunshine of the first breath of autumn of that perfect yesterday. Looking back at his friend, one who long years ago knew him in child hood and loved him for his fathers sake, he said:

 One who heard the manly and happy young motorman talking of the supreme Joy coming to him, and who was himself less fortunate, handed to the motorman's friend these lines to "Woman" in the ab- stract.
