TEST OF sPEEDOMETER.

1t is reported locally that the Penn
sylvania lines will soon begin expert
ments with a speedometer manufac-
tured in Germany, which will record
the speed of the trains, he time of
stops, the number and their duration,
giving a complete check on the engine
crew and the train crew. The value
of the speedometer, it is said, is TO
educate the engineers to smoother
running and to stimulate faster work
on the part of station attaches.

A THRILLING REQUEST.

DO you love me, Ernest?"
"Darling!" The strong arms of the
young man pressed the confding form
to his bosom, and, with a look of love
IN his eyes that told far more thar
words could express, he said: "Were
the wealth of the whole world mine
to give, it would still be too small tc
show the unutterable love that is in
my heart for you. But why this ques.
ton. Alice? Have you still a doubt
of my sincerity? Or is there anything
else that | a do to make happier the
one for whom I would cheerfully give
my life to prove my love?"
The happy face turned once more
to him, and the bright eyes, in which
the tender love-light was beaming,
looked fondly into his as she said in a
voice full of tenderness and pathos:
i do not ask you to give me your life,
Ernest. or the world and all its wealth.
what l am going to ask will be a
small thing for you to do, but a
priceless boon to me. 1t is this. For
almost ten minutes your foot has been

too severe a test of the love and devo.
ton you assert to ask you to take ii

nifty at Home.

When the consumer buys merchan-
disc he is interested in three>things-
quality, quantity and price. When he
goes into the store of his local mer-
chant he sees the goods that he is to
pay for displayed before him; he can
determine whether the quality is first
class, and whether the quantity is all
that is claimed. These two points
settled, he should have a fair idea as
to whether the price asked is a fair
n or not.
But how is it when he attempts to
buy of the big mail order houses of the
cities? The only guide he has to the
quality and quantity they are offering
Is what the catalogue says, and the
catalogue is prepared with the one OBJ
ject in view of selling the goods.
When the consumer buys of his
local merchant and finds the goods he
has purchased were not as represent
ed he can promptly take them back
and receive his money. When he buys
of the mail order house in the large
cities he has practically no recourse
but to take what he gets and look
pleasant at the results.

A MERE MATTER OF MONEY.

1.-TWO hundred dollars, please"
The New York drawing-room was
crowded with a fashionable throng
on the v of departure. The hostess
standing near the doorway, addressed
her remark to a quiet, innocent-look
ing lady who was about to pass
through, and who now viewed her
with establishment.
1.-TWO hundred dollars!" she ex,
claimed. What for?"
THAT Is your loss at bridge for the
evening"" said the hostess.
But" exclaimed her guest, " l had
no idea that we were playing for
money. Why, l wouldn't do such a
thing. What can you mean?"
You don't suppose for an instant"
said the hostess haughtily, that We
were playing for our health, do you?
1t is the usual thing"
But I haven't got the money with
me-"
"Then you can send me a check
at once"
The guest, her sense of justice fully
aroused by the imposition practiced
upon her, drew herself up proudly.
Il am, as you know, not long a res
ident here" she observed. 1T seems
to me nothing short of robbery. Sup
pose refuse to pay this money!"
The hostess shrugged her shoulders
meaningly.
IF you do" she replied with a fine,
cutting contempt, there is no hope
for you. From this time forward you
will cease to be an honored and re-
spected member of our sacred circle"
