cure. Triturated petrol. the powder in
question, is not so difficult to take as
petrol itself would be. but most people
prefer seasicllness.
Some Of the 'cures" are very in

Another gentleman. an Italian am

To come a-shinin' up to her.
But always when EInathan tried
To pop the question-so I've heared-
He'd stammer like his tongue was tied

Would set and trem'Ie like leaf,

Not KNOWN of the women's aims.
"Take hold o. hands," the parson said,

An order has been issued by the
management of the Rock Island rail-
road that hereafter no reservation for
Pullman space or accommodation on
trains of the company will be permit
ted on any form Of free railroad trans
portation for employees or others, ex-
cept on the understanding that on de-
mand before the departure of train the
same will be subject to sale for rev.
enue business. This rule has already
become effective and will be enforced
without exception. This order ends the
"hogging" of sleeping car berths or
parlor car seats by pass holders. Sew
eral months ago the management of
the Frisco system inaugurated a cam
paign in favor of the paying passen-
gers and orders were issued at that
time that no reservations would be
made until cash-fare patrons had been
accommodated. This company on its
midnight trains between Chicago and
st. Louis will not, under any circum.
stances, reserve berths on passes. The
Rock Island instructions include all

the effect Of ousting the deadhead, il
