Falling off the wafer wagon IS easy,
but being Knocked off is different,
Now, the driver Of a sprinkling cart
is surely on the water wagon if any
one is, and it was the driver of such
a vehicle that a trolley car knocked off
the other morning. The water wagon
was on the car tracks going in the
same direction as the car. The Car ran
into the wet end of the cart and there
was something doing.
First, off went the driver, Then the
motorman got an unexpected bath. TO
dodge the shower from the sprinkler he
opened the car doors and jumped in
side, and so doused some Of the pas
sengers. But nj one lost his temper.
Everybody grinned and joshed the
sprinkling cart driver about the ease
with which he had fallen OFF the water
wagon.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

we heard shouts behind and the noise Of

The loft was piled high with great
bales Of wool. as ! found by the touch,
and their odor enough to satisfy an army.

the arm and pointed.
Looking, I deserted in the gloom "A tall

Advancing, / stood on the sill and look
ed down. On the black water, tsv"a.E

close against the wareho ,sr. MY toes
stuck out over her deck almost.
AT first glance | could see no sign Of
life on board. but presently was aware
OF a dark figure leaning over the bull
waras. He was quite m~otionless. His
back was toward us, blotted against the
black shadow, and the man engaged only,
il seemed, in watching the bright splash
of light flung by the ships lantern on the
water beneath him.
1 resolved to throw myself on the mer-
cy or this silent figure, and put out a
hand to test the rope. One end Of it was
fixed to a bale of wool that lay, as it
had been lowered, on the deck. Flinging
myself OF the other, ! found it sink gent
iy from the pulley, as the weight below
moved slowly upward, and sinking with
it. ! held on till my feet touched the
deck. Still the figure in the bows was
motionless.
| paid out my end Of the rope softly,
lowering back the bale Of wool. and as
soon as it rested again on deck signaled
60 Delia to let herself down. She did
30. As she alighted and stood beside me
our hands bungled. The rope slipped up
quickly, letting down the bale with a
run.
We caught at the rope and stopped it
in time, but the pulley above creak-
ed vociferously. | turned my head. The
man in the bows had not moved.
