HIS NATIVE LAND BEST.
When 1t Came to Scenery He Thought
They Couldn't Beat the
Palisades.

The Empire State express was whiz-
zing up the Hudson few days ago,
with the eyes of all the passengers on
the left side of the train drinking on
the beauties of the river and the Pali-
sades on the other shore. One of the
passengers, foreigner, was particu-
larly expressive of his admiration,
says the New York Tribune.
You never saw anything in your
foreign countries to beat that, I'll bet"
said an upstate farmer, who was going
home by express from a visit with rel
atives in the city. cts just grand
scenery, that is"
"You are right, it is grand" ex-
claimed the foreigner, in perfectly cor
rect, though measured, English. Il
only remember one scene more beauti-
full"
The loyal up-stater demanded the
name of the scene that ''had the Pail
sades beat OUT
ga few months.ago I had the pleas
ure of going down the River Danube"
he answered. 'sIt is trip little taken
|
tween Paris and Vienna, but it is well
worth while. There is one place in par
ticular that reminds me of the Pail,
sades, and which 1 honestly believe
was more grand.
ga few miles below Belgrade the Car
pathian mountains cut across the
great plain of central Hungary, and
the Danube centuries ago cut pass
age through them. First, the river
rushes through a narrow passage,
then broadens out to the width of a
lake. Around bend goes the steamer
and the mountains come together. The
result is two rows of palisades higher
than those across this mighty stream,
and with tops majestically peaked. 1t
is called the Kezan Pass, but is more
popuarly known as the Iron Gate.'"
ut may be all as you say" declared
the farmer, "but you know what I
think-you're just prejudiced. There
can't be anything finer than the Pali-
sades."

MODERN RAILROADING.
Able Men Are Absolutely Necessary
In All Branches to Make
1t Pay.

A railroad is a machine for making
money, and the machine must be kept
| in good order. To this end sound con-
structive material is wanted and in
sisted upon, says Golfers Weekly.
Twentieth century railway managers
have a weakness for men who do their
| work well. They have an idea that by
lifting the efficient ones to higher
seats the road is benefited in dollars.
This idea governs employment.
Suppose the applicant for position is
an engineer. He is assigned to a loco
motive, in charge of a fireman, but un-
der the general instructions of the en-
gineer. During period. of from two
weeks to a month he works without
pay, because it is only a tentative serv-
ice meant to put him to the final test
of his potential fitness for the work.
If he comes out all right, the engineer
gives him certificate to the effect
that he is believed TO possess the make
up needful to locomotive engineer.
Once in possession of this certificate
of potential fitness, the young man is
soon found on freight engine as fire.
man drawing full pay. In this capacity
he serves not less than three years.
Then he is competent generally to take
charge of freight engine. This point
attained, he is practically assured that
he will in time be appointed to posi-
ton of the first class-that of engi-
neer of passenger train.
The operating department is one
that attracts many young men not of
| mechanicalt turn of mind. They begin
| variously as students" in telegraph of
fees, ticket offices, signal towers, etc.
1t takes them six months or year to
gain practical knowledge Of the rou-
tine duties of the men in the lower
grades of operating workmen over
whom it is their aim as rule to exer-
else supervision. During the period of
studenthood they receive from SIS to
$40 a month. Having served the time
needful to fit him for the responsible
ity, the new railroader is appoint ed
agent at minor station-a telegraph
operator, towerman or a switchman.
The pay of the station agents or oper-
ators ranges from $40 to $50 month,
and switchmen get from $50 to $40 a
month.
The term of apprenticeship for a
trainman is the shortest of all, and
on account of the quickly acquired
earning capacity the larger number
are attracted to this branch of rail-
reading. Within month the new man
may become brakeman on a freight
train at $50 to SIS month. In two
years he may become freight conduc-
tor, at 800 to 500 a month. In six
years, according to conditions, the post
of passenger conductor may be his, at
salary ranging from 500 to $120
month. In the train service the matter
of precedence depends almost wholly
on individual merit and seniority.

wouldn't vouch for Him.

Some of the lads who get into a
business life early can be relied upon
for good common sense. The head of
big grocery store in Chicago has
been greatly pleased with this COM
mon sense attribute in one of the
boys he employs. He is a bright,
honest lad, quick and reliable, and
when second boy was needed they
sent for "Sam." Couldn't he get them
a boy? They wanted boy as good
as he was, and he must know of one.
After some thought he finally agreed
to send them one, and the next day
the boy arrived and Sam was called
to identify him. do you know this
boy, Sam?" asked the employer.
eyes," answered Sam; 81 know him. %
Sand do you know him to be a good,
honest boy?" Il have played with
him all my life, and I have always
thought he was.' "But wifi you
vouch for him?" persisted the en-
ployer. "No," answered Sam indig-
nantly; 81 won't vouch for anyone. I
wouldn't vouch for my own brother.
How do know what temptations you
are going to put before him? "-Gol-

HE STOPPED THE BELL.
And Gave the Show Chance, There
fore Was Entitled to Free
Admission.

The requests for theater favors in the
small towns are very troublesome. Every
person of local standing feels that he has
a right to admission at least, while the trus-
tees and the constable feel that they are
entitled to private boxes. Some of the
requests are decidedly unique, says the
Chicago Inter-Ocean.
Recently a company played a small
southern city. The manager was taking
the tickets at the door of the theater, and
the natives were struggling to get in. Sud
denly he tells, "a long, thin, bushy-chin-
ned individual divided the folding doors
with his shoulder and whispered conf
dentially: 1 stop the bell l asked him
to repeat. 4 stop the BELL he said again
in hoarse whisper. You will have to
see the opera house manager and tell him
what you STOP said, reaching for tickets.
He tripped up several ladies while back
ing out. Soon the manager of the house
came in, saying: He's all right, he stops
the BELL l allowed him to go in, and
after the people were seated | asked the
local man what he meant by He stops the
BELL Well said he, this man is the
ianitor of the town hall, right opposite.
and on "show nights" he does not ring nine
or ten on the town clock. You see,' he
SAID, it would disturb the performance,
and so the poor people do not know what
time it is until IL o'clock, when the opera
house is open. If l had turned him down
he would have rung out nine and ten every
half hour to get even."

I'M STORY j, ! 3! :
ANOTHER HERO.

Let me tell you of a hero who has never
marched away,
With gay flags above him flying, to be
fearless in the fray:
He has never heard the rattle OF the
rifles or the roar
OF the havoc-dealing cannon as the shells
go screaming Ger
He is not gallant soldier, and the world
knows not his name,
But, unlaureled, unapplauded, he's
hero, just the same.
All, the turkey was delicious that they
piled upon his plate,
And his sisters and his Brothers chat
tered gayly as they ate.
With a thoughtful face he gently pushed
his white meat all aside
And he nibbled at the gizzard and a
wing, unsatisfied:
his pocket on the sly
And was sorry that he couldn't hide
away his piece of pie.
At the corner by the alley, where the
wind howled all the day,
Sat a pale boy at window while his
mother sewed away,
And he held a bunch of raisins and a
wishbone that was bare.
Tasting still the tender white meat that
had chung so lately there.
I have told you of my hero; men may
never give him fame,
But 1 think he has tablet up in heaven,
just the same.

Avn Important Discovery.

Granton, Okla, Feb. 9th.-After ten years
E. III. Gosney of Granton has at last found
a cure for Kidney Trouble. Mr.. Gosney
suffered very severely with Kidney Com
plant and some ten years ago made up his
mind to find cure if one was to be had.
He has tried and tried and experimental
with every kidney medicine he could hear
of. Although he was always disappointed
was rewarded and he found complete
cure.
He is well man to-day and explains it
as follows:
Everything failed to cure me and was
growing worse and worse till l tried new
remedy called Dodd's Kidney Pills and |
had not taken many of them before l
knew that I had at last found the right
thing l am entirely cured and / cannot
say too much for Dodd's Kidney Pills"

He Was I'm Early.

Not all visitors to the country are
as ignorant of the farmers surround
ings as the farmers sometimes sup
pose. Browning's Magazine gives this
instance:
'Wal," said Farmer Wilkins to his
city boarder, who was up early and
looking around, "ben out to hear tho
haycock crow, I s'pose?" and he
winked at his hired man.
NO." replied the city boarder, "I've
been out tying knot in a cord of
wood"
Farmer Wilkins scowled at the
hired man, and wanted to know why
he was not getting to work at milk,
ing those cows.
