SAVED THE LIMITED
Ralph Walters Also Won Girl He
Loved, and 0utWitted
a MiSer.
BY GEORGE ELMER COBB.

A little incident like the crossing
of two pins on a railroad track was
the starting point in a new destiny
for Ralph Walters. 1t was at a little
station where he had been waiting for
a train for Warburton. The through
train did not stop. He could heal 1t
coming now. The local was not
for an hour. All alone on the bench
outside the depot, he caught sight OF
the through" coming around the
curve. Then, CHANGING to glance the
other way, he sprang to his feet with
a cry of horror.
A little urchin not over six years
old had been placing two pins cross
wise on the outer rail, to make "scis-
sors." A sight of the coming train
starued the y%oungster. In his trepida-
tion he slipped over the rail and
rolled directly into the middle Of the
road bed.
He was too far away for Ralph to
reach him in time, and the latter saw
at a glance that the onrushing train
would be upon the lad before he could
get clear of the tracks. The young
man knew that on the turn Of q mo-
ment hung a precious human life!
His leisure waiting had given him,
from observation, a practical idea OF
the switches. There was n thing
to do, and that quickly. Ralph acted.
He sprang at a switch and pulled it
over to outer clear. The fast Limited
with a jerk and a toot swung over to
a siding, the little boy rolled. from
his bed of danger, and, half, fright
ened to death, ran from the spot,
screaming out his terror.
There were explanations u the
switched train, Ralph well knew. Be-
fore he coRld make them, however
nor the crew of the Limited had ex-
pected. Around the east curve came
a locomotive with full head of steam
on: it flashed on its way, and Ralph
realized that somewhere there were
crossed orders.
The conductor of the Limited came
rushing Up to Ralph, his face white
and excited. In a word he gathered
an explanation of the motive OF
Ralph in switching the train. Then
he dashed into the station, to find
the operator away for dinner. He
rushed to the telephone instrument

was busy there for two minutes, and
came out swiftly.
THE biggest thing you will ever
do" he said in a strained tone, is
what you've done in switching u
train"
at was an impulse. The sight of
the child" began Ralph, almost 'apol-
o%getically.
"If you hadn't" went on the conduc-
tor, you can guess what might have
happened. We had no notice of the
special that just dashed by. The alb
sent operator here vas expected to
signal us. Say, you've saved the Linn
ited!"
The switched train stood stalled
where it had halted. 1t seemed that
the minute the engineer struck the
siding be put on the brakes SO
quickly that a connection was brok-
en-. The train hands were trying to
adjust this now. The passengers,
startled and curious. had come FROM
the coaches. Ralph observed a group
of them now surrounding the conduc-
tor. He pointed at Ralph, and from
the actions of the group the latter
knew that they were discussing him.
Being a modest young man. he
walked down the track to find the
scissors" beside 1t where the wheels
of the great steam giant had welded
the two pins. Ralph could not very
well evade a group which met him.
They congratulated him on his action
in saving the train. One among them.
a bright-eyed miss. plainly indicated
in her grateful glance that she consid-
cred him something of a hero. When
the train was ready to start up, by
chance, it seemed, she found a seat
beside him.
THAT must be a cherished SOU
yenir," she remarked, as she noticed
the baby scissors in Ralph's hand.
"You may have it, if you like" he
said.

THE PASTOR SPRlNTED.

win PLENTY OF Reason.
One OF the traditional stories OF the
town OF Fairfield. Conn. recounts a
Wild dnsb from the pulpit made by
a worthy and beloved pastor OF the
Episcopal flock. DIR. Labaree.
II was on Sunday more than a hun
dred years ago. The service had been
read the prayers said. the hymns sung.
end the parson began his sermon. Az
he proceeded his gestures became very
energetic. He brought his right hand
down with great force. Then he turned
pale. cleared the pulpit stairs at o
bound. dashed out of the church door
and ran toward the pond a short dis.
tance away.
The congregation followed In bewil.
dered pursuit and saw their venerable
pastor with flying robe rush into the
water until II came TO his neck. Then.
turning round. he faced his astonished
audience and said:
Dearly beloved brethren, I am not
crazy. as no doubt many OF you think.
but yesterday at the drug store | bought
a bottle Of nitric acid and carelessly
left 1t In my pocket today.
my last gesture broke the bottle. I
knew the suffering the acid would cause
when 1t penetrated my clothing and
rushed for the water to save myself
pain"
He drew several pieces OF glass from
his pocket In witness Of the tale. Then
he dismissed the company and hurried
home.

Deafness Cannot Be
Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that's by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian tube. When this tube is
infamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and~unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an inhamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of I,eafness-caused by
catarrh-that cannot be cured by Halls
