SUCCESSFUL TRIAL OF THE
 MONO RAIL.

It may be asserted quite seriously that yesterday IS likely to rank in the history of locomotive invention with the day on which George Stephenson's ''Rockett" made its first trip. Both dates inaugurated a wonderful new system of locOmotion: and the last claims. with good evidence. to be no less profoundly important in its bear ing on the progress of civilization than the first.
 The event of yesterday was the tri- umph of Louis Brennan's mono-rail in vention. On the circular track, one eighth of mile in circumference, laid down in the field-at Dillingham;, near Chatham, where Brennan has his fac tory. forty passengers were carried easily and without the slightest hitch by the first full-sized mono-rail gyro- scope car ever seen in England-forty feet long and ten feet wide
 It is difficult to convey in writing the full wonder of this new locomo- tion: hardly less difficult than one im- agines it must have been to make the public of Stephenson's day grasp the

meaning of the steam engine. But if the reader pictures tram car run ming on four wheels-not two on each side. but all in a line. tandem style, under the middle of the flooring. and revolving on a single rail. he will have notion of the external extraordinari- ness of the invention.
 The car progresses like a tandem bicycle. and the spectator -marvels how the balance which keeps the thirty tons of it upright on it's single line is achieved. That. of course. is where the brain of Brennan comes in.
 He has solved the problem by the principle of the gyroscope. On each side of the cab of the gar is a wheel three feet six inches in diameter. weighing three-quarters of a ton. that is driven at the rate of 300@ revolutions q minute, each revolving in con trary irection to the other.

Value of Rural Beauty.

Street railway companies in Massa- chusetts have offered 10 aid the state m it's battle against forest fires. The state has accepted the offer and gen. eral orders have gone forth to many of the railway superintendents to begin the work of cooperation at once on well planned system.

WHEN A KIND ACT RETURNED


 A Cleveland paper tells of tramp who came to the back door of resi- dence and begged for shoes. The mis- tress of the house gave him good pair and said to him: There. put these on. and if you want to show your gratitude. just happen around here some morning after a snow storm anu clean off our sidewalk
 Some time after the lady was awak- ened early one morning by some one scraping the sidewalk in front of the house Looking out, she found that there had been quite heavy fall Of snow. and there she beheld the tramp to whom she had given the shoes, clearing away the snow from the side walk with the aid of an old broken shovel. When he caught sight of his benefactress at the window he raised his tattered hat to her. and his self imposed task finished, went away without saving a word or even asking for anything to eat. Three times the same thing happened during the win
 
 pensation. repeats Orison Swett Mar den in Success Magazine
 A New York woman once invited a ragged. dirty beggar into her house, and after he had had a comfortable meal and some clean clothing. she sent him away with words of en- coura gement. telling him that he was made for something better than tramp ing: that it was a shame for a man of his apparent intelligence and good health to be getting a living in such a disgraceful way.
 The lady became embarrassed finan- cially and was in sore need of money She asked a friend where she could borrow $500. but he could not accom- modate her, nor did he know of any one who could Next day, to her great astonishment, man, a total stranger. as she thought, called at her house and told her that he had heard she was pressed for money and that he had come to lend her the amount she, needed. With growng suprise she asked how it was that a complete stranger, whom she had never seen. was willing to trust her. The man then explained that he was the tramp whom. year before. she had taken to her home and treated like brother; that her kindness on that occasion had been the turning point in his career: had made man of him again; that he had prospered beyond his deserts. and that ever since he had gotten on his feet he had been wishing for an oppor- tunity to show his appreciation of what she had done for him.

PENNsYLvANi EPiTAPHs.
Some Pronounced Opinions Found on
 Old Tombstoncs.

Few regions afford so interesting a field for the epitaph collector as the counties of southeastern Pennsylvania round about Philadelphia. which were originally peopled to a large extent by ! Germans. In the ancient burial , grounds of this district there are many { repetitions of that one time popular ! tombstone stanza which is found in nearly every old cemetery: i Reader. behold as you pass by. i As you are now so once was I: ! As I am now so you must be. 1 Prepare for death and follow me But besides the repetition of various ! favorite epitaphs there are many orig | inal outbursts in these Pennsylvania cemeteries. For instance. in the pretty churchyard at Whitemarsh. where I members of many wealth suburban f families Of modern times repose. tho grave of John Barge, who died in 1175. ! is marked by stone which bears this stanza:
 Life is a cheat And always shows it; I thought so once, And now I know it. A few miles further west, in the cemetery of St. Johns Lutheran church. Center Square. is this epitaph. the third line of which doubtless was gratifying to those he dealt with: Farewell, m- wife and children dear. Bucks countys graveyards supply I am not dead but sleeping here: My debts are paid. my grave you see. Wait but your time and follow me South of the Schuykill river the Vim cent Baptist burying ground contains stone on which in raised letters ap- pears this legend, probably dictated by a family of loving children:

 To stop at some other station l. McCracken made an agreement with the cemetery association for the erac- tion of this monument and then com mitted suicide by cutting his throat. Beside McCracken rests his wife, and the inscription on the stone at her grave, Tn contrast with that on the adjoining marker. reads thus:
