buildings. The porter was awakening
passengers at an unusually early hour
that morning. and long before the
train reached Baltimore he had them
up. The groom told his bride that he
would leave his coat and hat and re-
tire to the smoking compartment of
the train. He went out and met a
friend. who asked him back into an
other car in order that he might meet
a friend of his. Soon the conductor be-
gan making his rounds and taking up
tickets. The young bride referred him
to the smoking apartment. where. she
said. her husband would be found. A
moment later the conductor returned
and informed her politely that the
bridegroom was not to be found The
other passengers were startled by
loud Shrek
MY husband! Oh, my husbandw
Don't be alarmed, madam" said the
conductor reassuringly. Netting has
happened to your husband. He is
probably in Baltimore. We dropped
two sleepers at that point" And that
was why friends of the young couple
who went to the station in Washington
to meet them saw only the bride cling

The Time Allotted Us.

The time allotted us, If it were well
employed, were abundant enough to
answer all the ends and purposes Of
mankind, but we squander 1t away in
avarice, drink, sleep, luxury, ambition,
fawning addresses, envy. rambling
voyages. impertinent studies, change
Of counsels and the like, and when our
portion is spent we find the want Of 1t,
though we give no heed to it in the
passage, insomuch that we have rather
made our life short than found 1t so.
