Looking Forward and Backward

7VHERE used to be a popular Sunday school
i story about particularly rich old man
who had been raised on a farm and came upon
the Office boys lunch basket one day The
sight of it aroused an appetite stated by luxu-
ries. He yielded to a powerful temptation.
devoured the contents of the lunch basket with
gustatory enjoyment, and left in the basket
four hundred-dollar bill in payment. Maybe
there is mistake about the size of the bill;
but it is just easy to believe as the rest of the
story. Still you can't tell; it might have hap
pened, along with the other marvellous things
that used to be part of Sunday school stories.
Of course there are times when the selfInade
millionaire wakes eloquent about the things
that mother used to make; but it is generally

him mental as we'll as stomachic indigestion.

are of the time when he shall be rich and Sue

when he was really happy. Most OF Us are SO
busy thinking and dreaming of the time when
we should have been happy or when we are

nearly half an hour when fuse blew

sengers who filled the cars to capacity,
were thrown into a panic, II was with
much difficulty that they were quieted.
Smoke and flashes of electricity added
II the confusion. For several minutes
the guards were too frightened TO open
the doors. and il was not until the cooler
passengers urged it that they did so.
When the smoke IN the cars had partly
cleared, the passengers climbed out and
hurried 10 the street. The fire in the
motor box was put out by employees
with sand. According TO the train dis
