Old English Railway Station.

The only railway station in England
that can boast of being really old is
that at Bourne, Lincolnshire, which is
an ancient Elizabethan mansion, for.
merly in the possession of the Digby
family. When the Great Northern &
Midland railways came through this
district a memorial was sent from the
inhabitants of Bourne asking that, in,
stead of pulling the old landmark
down, 1t might be converted into q
railway station, for which purpose It
now serves. Part of the house Is
used as residence by the station
master.

CHAPTER XII.
Woman's WjlfuIness,

Joan rode on, silent, a furlong be-
fore all her men. Behind her sulked
Maurice Won Lynar. Had any been
there to note, their faces were now
strangely alike in feature. and yet
more curiously unlike in expression
Joan gazed forward into the distance
like soul dead and about to be re.
born. planning a new life. Maurice
Won Lynar looked more like naughty
schoolboy whom some tyrant Fate,
rod-wielding. has compelled to obey
against his will. ."rs

like a cloud before them above the
blue and misty plain. But no word

A lump rose in Joan's throat as she
tried to shape into words the thoughts
that surged within her. She felt
strangely weak. Her pride was not
the same as of old for the heart of a
woman had grown up within her-a
heart of flesh. Surely that could not
be a tear in her eye? No; the wind
blew shrewdly out of the west, to
which they were riding.

Dark Poultry Houses.

There are still many dark poultry
houses to be met with In the country
Some OF them are so dark that It is
a wonder that the hens can get along
without becoming diseased. 1t is also
a wonder how the floor of such a
house can dry out at all. II is not a
difficult matter to knock hole In the
side OF poultry house and put in "a
window, This should be done now
while the weather is good, says the
Farmers Review, The additional light
will prove great boon TO the fowls
which will thrive better because of
the light in their dwelling house. In
the summer time this matter of light
is not OF 80 much Importance as 1t is
in the winter. In the summer the
fowls have the run of the farm and
spend but little Time In the poultry
house, but in the winter they have
to spend very large amount of time
there, especially II the location Is in
states where snow remains on the
ground during considerable part Of
the winter .A' ". ~ S~ts'-l- z

other attorney in Ohio. 1t Is generally
known that he Is a poor man so far

long ago why he held himself down to
a $4,000 job, whereas If he confined
himself. to legal practice he could grow
enormously rich.

JAPAN TO OWN RAILROADS.
Nation to Pay Double the Cost Of the

Now that the Japanese government
has undertaken to nationalist II pri-
vate railways, having total Of 2,SS7
miles of line, at cost of 421 100000
yen (s210, 000,000), or about $4,000 a
mile, the latest annual report OF Ichiji
Yamanouchi, director Of the imperial
bureau of railways of Japan for the
fiscal year ended March 81, 1905, be-
comes of the highest historical and
comparative value.
The total mileage open for traffic In
1906 was 4.693. divided as follows:
Government railways, l,46l miles;
private railways. 3,232 miles. This
showed an increase of nearly 1913
miles over 1904.
Calculating the Japanese yen at so
cents commercially 49.S cents), the
cost OF construction of the mileage

II will be perceived that the Japan.

double the original cost of construc-
ting the private railways and there is
no suggestion of graft or excessive
valuation in the transaction. The
price paid was 20 times the average
of the net earnings from operation for

cost of construction and multiplied
