III 1t is estimated that about six bill
lion passengers were carried by the
trolleys Of the country last year, about
four or five billion more than travelled
by steam, says the Tristate Tourist.
At this rate every man, woman and
child, white, black, yellow or brown,
might have had about rs rides each
during the year An average Of some
thing like seventeen million passen-
gers were carried daily. Nearly third
of q million persons have their names
on the payrolls of the trolley compa-
MES Of the country. In spite OF the
rapid development of electric street
railways there are still operated In
this country 260 miles Of horse car
lines and 240 miles Of cable lines. In
view Of the talk prevalent today about
the dangers incident to travel, 1t Is
interesting to note that on the street
railways but one person is killed in
26,000,000 and but one person Is hurt
In 100000 of those carried.

New York, Jan. g - Opening prices
of stocks showed fractional recover

which ran to nearly a point in Read
ing, five-eights in Union Pacific and
three-fourths in sugar. The hardening
tone of the London market had a
sympathetic effect on early dealings
here. Reading reacted sharply from
the opening price. Dealings were on
fairly large scale.
A renewal of liquidation in the
Southern railway stocks coupled with
moderate sales of the western rail
roads and specialties produced a gem
eral decline after the opening, in
which most of the list went below
yesterdays closing. The market, how
ever, did not remain down long, a

JUST FOR EFFECT.

The man who kicks about the price
He pays for wifie's hat,
Who says it keeps him on the edge
And other things like that,
May never pay a single bill
For things she calls her own.
And she may be supporting him
If all the facts were known.
It's not the man who stands around
And kicks about the price
Who brings a bonnet home each mig hit
Or something just as nice.
Because the fellow who can buy
His wife the very best,
He brags about 1t all the time
Until you cannot rest.
The man who makes the greatest roar
About the big expense,
He slips round to the store and buys
Her one for ninety pence.
And IL the season after that
She wants a new headgear
He let's her know she'll have to wear
The one he bought last year
Ir-s not the man who chews the rag
About the cost OF things
Who buys store out every day
And home the contents brings.
He salts his little roll away
And tries to get ahead
That others may have ample funds
To spend when he is dead.

The caterpillar spends his life in try

Some species hide on the under sur

blades of grass. which serve them as

which they draw close together until

The Billboard Camcs;en.

The moment man Is nominated for
an office he Is at once seized with the
idea that the town is missing its meals
waiting for a chance to look at his
face, and he proceeds TO plaster it up
In billboards, dead walls and every
unpre-empted bit of landscape that he
can find.
1t makes no difference If he has a
face SO homely that the looking glass
hates TO tell him the truth about 1t, he
still rushes madly on with his paste
pot outraging art and making the
waste places look like a crazy quilt.
We do not know that the posters do
any particular harm. We never heard
of any one leaving his happy home on
account of them, and it seems TO do
the candidate lots OF good personally.

Pat had obtained employment as a

Suppose you run that engine in the

Simplifed Spelling.

Speaking of phonetic spelling. we
certainly need it, from this story:
Little Willie came home from school
one afternoon crying, and on being ask
ed by his mother the cause he told his
mother that he had missed word in
spelling and had been whipped by his
teacher.
On being asked what the word was
and how he spelled it Willie told her
the word was pneumonia and that he
had spelled it n-e-n-m -o-n-i-a.
The next day Willie came home cry
ing even harder than the day before
His mother. asking the cause. was
informed that Willie had missed an
other word in spelling and had been
whipped again for his mistake
He told his mother that the word he
missed was neuralgia and that he spell
ed it p-n-e-u-r-a-l-g-i-a.-Ju Libra

THANKSGIVING.


Thanksgiving was invented in New
England and from there spread to the
other parts of the country.
In the early days of that section tie
settlers had such hard time lodging
indian arrows and looking for crop
returns with a microscope that when a
good crop came in connection with a
poor year for Indians they felt like
tossing up their caps and feeling good
about it.
After awhile the rest of the country
thought up some things to be thankful
for, and the governors of the various
states who did not care what they did
to the English language began writing
prociamations, and so the custom was
established
1t is a beautiful custom, too, particu-
larly when it is set off with roast tur-
key, pumpkin pie and some of the 9TH
er good things you read about in the
cookbook.
