The box car Is often entered by
springing the door off its iron way at
the side opposite the seal. A party GO
going the opposite direction, and then,
when all are in, springing the door
back again. Since everything exter-
nally Is in the best of order, long trips
may be made in this manner without
disturbance or interruption.
Now and then the prisoner Is ex-
posed to danger Of starvation. A case
of this kind has been related to me,
where only the accidental visit of a
train hand saved a man from death.
The brakeman inspected the intruder's
papers, and, finding that they showed
him to be in good standing in his union,
took him out. fed him up, and then re-
placed him-to finish his journey in
peace. The hero of the incident Is q
printer, who has been leading a settled
life now for thirteen or fourteen years.
But he says he still feels longing to
be Off again whenever spring comes.
A railway accident, whether by
water or fire, Is a very serious affair
to passengers Of this sort You have
doubtless read more than once, as l
have, of tramps drowned like rats,
or burned or crushed to death while
stealing rides in this fashion. Riding
the trucks is done In various ways.
A locomotive engineer Of my acquaint-
ance has shown me the precise spot
from which he has taken out two
men at one time. 1t was ON the rear
truck of the tender. They were rest
ing. face downward, on the truck
beam, with just eleven inches of ver-
tical space for their bodies, by actual
measurement.-The Independent.

in their accustomed order. nor can they
be induced to reverse their position.
This Is one of the after effects Of their
rigid training. In bis own sphere
the mine mule is very ungallant an
imal. He hates woman. 1t may be
that he wishes the Pennsylvania State
law to be respected, but whatever his
reasons. he dislikes the sight of a
petticoat In his domain. A hundred
men may push him aside and pass In
some narrow alley-way, but II Is not
wise or safe for woman to attempt
to pass the same quiet animal when he
is not busy. He Is not an argumen-
tative animal, the mule. and the only
way to get along with him in the pit,
as well as on the surface, is to respect
his likes and dislikes.--New York Com
mercial Advertiser.

Birds a Necessity to Man.

Man could not live in a birdless
world A French naturalist asserts
that If all the birds in the world were
to die suddenly, human life on this
planet would become extinct in nine
years. In spite of all the sprays and
poisons which could be manufactured
to kill off destructive slugs and insects,
they would so multiply that in that
length of time they would have eaten
up all the orchards and crops in ex-
istence and man would be starved to
death. All that man does in the way
Of preserving to our use the kindly
fruits of the earth" is as nothing com
pared with what Is accomplished by
the vast army of birds which prey
upon Insect life aud thus keep it down
to point which permits of the growth
of sufficient food to support human life
Take away the birds and in nine years
not a man, woman or child would be
allve-all dead of starvation.

my wife,"
"Well, sir. IL you'll just let on that

So Green skunk OF to bed, and the

wilkins found Green's bed unrumpled.

woman's singlo-Breasted Blouse.

No other garment Is more popular
than the simple blouse. Young girls
and women alike hold 1t the most sat
isfactory of all models, both for the
suit and the coat of velvet, velours and
the like. The example shown in the
large drawing has the merit of abso-
lutte simplicity combined with smart
ness. The original is made of broad
cloth in tobacco brown and makes
part of a suit, the extension being
omitted, but all suiting materials are
appropriate as well as those already
mentioned.
The blouse is eminently simple. The
back is plain and smooth, without full
ness, but the fronts, while plain across
the shoulders have the fulness stylish
ly arranged at the waist line and droop
slightly over the belt The neck is
finished with a regulation coat collar
and notched lapels and pocket is In.
serted in the left front. The sleeves
are in coat style slightly bell-shaped
at the hands. When the basque ex-
tension is used 1t is Joined to the blouse
beneath the belt.
To cut this blouse for woman of
medium size three and three-quarter
yards of material twenty-one inches
wide. three and a quarter yards twen-
ty-seven inches wide, one and three
quarter yards forty-four inches wide,
or one and tlve-eighth yards fifty-four

The carved wooden toys. plated

Green made for Tommy were the won

This smart May Manton model in
c,udes these desirable features and at
the same time has a fancy front and

shown the material is Sapho satin in

of cream lace over white and tiny edge
trimming of fancy scrolled braid. but
numberless Materials and combinations
might be suggested both for the odd
waist and the entire costume.
The lining Is snugly fitted and in
cludes double darts, under-arm cores
and side backs. The waist proper is
plain and smooth at the back with
full at the front. The vest or full
front of lace Is gathered at both neck
and waist edges and is stitched into
place at the right side, hooked over
onto the left. The fronts are laid in
three tucks each and arranged in gath
ers at the belt. At the neck is a regu-
lation stock. The sleeves are novel
and effective. The under portions are
faced into the Innings, but the upper
portions are quite separate and fall
freely over the deep cuffs.

TIE waist is made over fitted lining

which can be cut away to yoke depth

The full portion is gathered at both up

with pointed cuffs, and over the shoul-

is standing collar.

Ancient saxon hronumsnts.

In the churchyard at Bewcastle.
Cumberland, England, an isolated spot
about twelve miles from any railway
station, Is monument built 1880 years
ago, bearing the inscription: "The frst
year OF Ecgfrith, King Of this realm"
l. e.. A. d., go. Another inscription
(Runic) on the west side says that 1t
was set up as STANDARD of Victory
in Memory of Alchfrith, lately King
(of Northumbria), who played so i'm.
portant part in the history of the
time. An interesting account OF the
cross is given in Bishop Brownies
work. "The Conversion OF the Hept
archy." He says that the inscriptions
"are the earliest examples known to be
in existence of English literature" and.
'looking to the Importance in the his
tory of the world OF the conversion OF
England. there is no historical monu.
ment in these lands to compare with
the Newcastle Cross" The shaft as
1t stands, Is a square pillar composed
of single block of gray freestone
fourteen and one-half feet high. The
cross head is gone, but when entire
the monument must have been about
twenty-one feet high.
