perfect confidence, took hold of a snake,
was bitten, and died. says the London
Express
The question arose what offense. IL any.
had the holy man committed? The eoun-
Gil of elders, after fun deliberation, ar
rived at the conclusion that the mullah
had "acted foolishly in taking money for
the lncantation. for. the spell loses It's
power il 1t is sold for money: also he
erred. as he had no regard for the fact
that some snakes do not obey ineanta-
tions, and that people who catch hold OF
snakes usually die of snake bite"
They thought that the vendor of this
valuable guarantee against snake-oite
ought to be imprisoned for two months.
The brother OF the dead man had, ac-
cording to the custom of the country,
asked for blood money, but the elders
held that he was not entitled to 1t. as
the mullah had taught the spell in good
faitn." Besides, the victim had been ad-
vised by others not to try 1t, but after
ALL he was nredestlned to meet his fate
Both parties accepted this decision az

OLD RAILWAY TIME TABLE
DISCOVERED IN GEORGIA
Was Issued in 1852 BY William Wadey Superintendent of
the Central Railroad of Georgia-Its Rules for Con-
ductors and Engineers Seem Quaint in This
Colossal Age of Railroading

railroad management. For instance. the
enSineman was instructed that If his
train killed any stock and threw tn
COW or cows IN such a position as to
endanger the safety of the next train
he was to stop his train and see that
the track was cleared.
Passenger trains were not to exceed
the speed of their schedule except
W hen behind time. in which case the
speed might be increased three miles
an hour generally. In passing turnouts
othe turnout evidently was the switch.
ing tracl) the speed had to be dimln-
ished to six miles an hour.
Rule 6 might be put In force today
with good effect and to the delight or
"a much jolted travelling public It
reads:
In connecting and starting with his
train the engineman will be exceeding
ly careful in the management Of the
throttle, so that the cars may not be
injured or the passengers annoyed by
the sudden violence of the start"
This paragraph is found at the end of
the regulations for enginemen:
For any violation of the above rules
for running off at turnouts, for killing
OF stock by daylight and for all other
irregularities the general superintend-
ent VIII impose such fines as he deems
just and called for by the nature of
the offense."
The freight trains took two days to
make the 1877 miles between Attain Ia
and Chattanooga, The stops at the sta
tions varied from 10 to so minutes.
One of the rules for freight conductors
about Keeping certain distance from
the trains ahead of him and behind
him shows that there must have been
delightful uncertainty about the pro-
visions for changing meeting points In
case trains were delayed. 1t Is evident
that there was no telegraph communi :
cation along the line, although this
was years after Morse had demon
strated that he could send messages
over the wire from Washington to Bal
timore. Several months before Charles
Minnot also had made use of the tele-
graph In ordering the operation of
trains on the Erie,

The Duty of Fathers

IL is customary among writer's, both.
ancient and modern. to assume that upon
the mother rests the whoe responsibility
for the bringing up OF her children.
Girls, 1t is perhaps an unkind thing to
try to destroy a deep-rooted he eff, such
as this seems to be. but take ny word
for it, 1t is not true that the mother alone
can perform these enormous feats. An
equal responsibility rests upon the fathers
and 1t is largely because our men have
comfortably decfded-and no wonder
since most of what has been said has
pointed that way-that. they are relieved
from such responsibility, that +he world
Is so bad as 1t is today, says Kate Upson
Clark in Leslie's The Bible recognizes
this duty of fathers in many places. The
Book Of Proverbs Is full of d'rectiol.s
concerning the discipline of children, but
they are given to the fathers In Ephe-
slams, II is the fathers that are bidden
to bring up their children in the nurture
and admonition of the Lord. 1t is the
iniquity of the fathers which is visited
upon the children, and, 1t Is the fathers
who are often alluded to as 'pitying"
their children. and as full of mercies."
Every girl. if she Is a wholesomeIy
ruman and normal girl, desires a home
and husband and children of her own
and she ought to realize that the charac-
ter Of that home and of those children
depends to an alarming extent upon the
character of that husband.

Let the Musher Mush

The terrible hardships of the men who
have done all this cannot be appreciated
by those who think of the "musher''
merely as one who travels around on foot
or with a pack-mule I am something
of a footman myself, for I have trav-
eled afoot under many skies: but even
the merciless jungle trail in the unfor-
gettable heat of an equatorial sun is
a plea sure jaunt in comparison with the
hardships of the Alaskan '.musher" His
is the Ioneliest. most pitiless path that
the pioneer treads today; mo spot on
the map In SO short space has hustled
more souls to hell"
This hardy pioneer. the fttest. ,of the
fit. is still holding grimly to the land
which his heroism conquered. says Ed
gar Allen Forbes In I eslie's. There he
has built his little home and sat him
down to await a peoples feet in paths
that he prepared" He expected the rail-
road to follow him, as It has followed
the trail Of every other American pion-
eer and as it has followed his Canada n
brother from sea to sea and into the
frozen wastes all the way up to Hudson
Bay. But the railroad does not follow,
because the American government will
not make 1t possible; 'let the musher
mush!" is the country's message to
Alaska.
