LITTLE KINDNESSES.

If you were toiling up a weary hill
Bearing a. load beyond yOur strength to
bear,
Straining each nerve untiringly, and still
Stumbling and losing foothold here and
there,
And each one passing by would do so much
As give one upward lift and go their way,
Would not the slightest reiterated touch
Of help and kindness lighten all the day?

If you ‘were breastihg a keen wind, which
tossed
And buffeted and chilled you as you
strove,
Till, bafiied and bewildered quite, you lost
The power to see the way, and aim and
move,
And one, if only for a moment’s space,
Gave you shelter from the bitter blast,
Would you not find it easier to face
The storm again when the brief rest was
past?

There is no little and there is no much;
We weigh and measure and define in vain.
A look, a word, a. light responsive touch
Can be the ministers of joy to pain.
A man can die of hunger, walled in gold,
A crumb may quicken hope to stronger
breath,
And every day we give or we withhold
Some little thing which tells for life or
death.
~—Susan Coolidge.

BREAKING A RECORD.

 

 

BY ROBERT BARR.

The manager of the London & Glas-
gow air line railway, Mr. Swipes, sent
me an invitation marked “private,” say-
ing that he was bound to beat the rec-
ord made by the Lake Shore & Michigan
Southern railroad now that they had
come out. in print about it. He added
that he thought record breaking in the
night time all right enough, if the
record breaker did not say anything
about it in public, but if newspaper'ac-
counts were to be written then the
race «should be open to outside parties
who might wish to know the time with-
out asking a policeman. He added that
when the New York Central broke the
English record they did so with their
Empire State express, which anyone
could have traveled on who had the
money to pay his fare. This, he
claimed, was the right way of breaking
a record if you are going to write about
it afterward. Nevertheless he was go-
ing to follow the Lake Shore & Michi-
gan Southern fashion, just to see what
his railroad could do, and he invited me,
as a person'owning an American watch,
to come upon the trip, but begged me
to say nothing whatever about it, for,
he said, instead of breaking the rec-
ord, we might perhaps break our necks.
He added that he regretted that he
owned only am old‘silve'r turnip of a.
watch himself which wouldn’t split the
minutes, let alone the seconds,‘and so
he would like to have a. really good
watch. with which to keep the time.
I was to meet him at the Londoute-r-
minus of the London & Glasgow air
line at exactly 12, midnight, three
weeks ago. There was some little risk
in going out at that hour, for it is well
known that one of the most obnoxious
and oppressive laws made by Queen Vic-
toria herself is that ‘every man in Lon-
don must be in his own house at 8:40
o’clock, and have lights out and be in
bed at nine. Anyone out after that
hour is liable to arrest, so I stole up and
down through by streets and dodged
the policemen until I came to the ter-
minus. Here I was amazed to find an
immense locomotive and one flat car,
11 ith two camp stools on it.

“What’s this for 9” I said to swipes.

“We’re going to break the record
with this train,” he replied. “I wantto
have it as light as possible, for an ordi—
nary carriage meets with such resist-4
ance in passing so quickly through the
atmosphere that I concluded to take a
freight car, and if we have a smash-up
it won’t be so expensive.”

“But you don’t expect me to sit on
one of those stools in the open air from
here to Glasgow ?” I cried, aghast.

“Oh, that’s all right,” he said. “The
stools are. fastened to the floor of the.
on r, and I have shawl straps with which
you can fasten yourself to the stool.
There won’t be any trouble on that
score.”

“Where are the other fellows ?” I
asked.

“There aren’t any,” he answered.
“When you are going to break 3. rec-
ord the fewer you have on board the
better; watches diifer, and it would-be
bad if there was a quarrel about time;
your watch shall be the only ofiicdal
time piece in the company; mine, as
1 think I told you in the letter, general--
1 y loses two hours out of the 24, so I
think we had better not trust to it."

I strapped myself to one stool and
Swipes strapped himself to the other
and at 12:15 we pulled out of Maryle-
bone terminus. It. was agreed that we
were not to begin the record until we
had passed Highgate, and were thus
safely out of th .ir fl'ucnce of London.

The distance from London to Glas-
gow is 401.5 miles. We had for engineer
Peter MeG ump, who was a Scotchman,
and therefore knew the road to Glas-
gow well, and Billy Jones, of “White—
chapel, did the firing. We had no
brakcman, because, as Swipes said, it
was not on the brakes we were going to
depend for breaking the record.

The engine was known as the Mary
Jane, and familiar to all the operators
on the road as “Her Golden Hair Is
Hangin’ Down ’er Back.” She gets this
nickname from her great speed, and
from the fact that the smoke with the
sparks in it trails out behind like a
great banner.

After leaving Highgate Peter gave.
her more steam, and the speed beganto
be something appalling.

“Oh, it’s nothing to what we’ll have
by and by,” said Swipes, as he watched
me making an ineffectual grab at my
hat, which disappeared in the darkness.
Swipes counted the mile-stones while
I ticked 011' the seconds on my watch,

and before long we were going 70 miles
an hour. We had the advantage over
the American road in the, fact that

there are rarely any level road cross-
ings in England, and that one rail-

 

way is never allowed to cross another

miles an hour, but as the Lake Shore
train has attained a speed of 92.3,
Swipes yelled to Peter as .well as he
could to give her more speed, because
if she didn’t put in her best licks now,
what could we expect when we. came to
the high grounds and the stiff grades
of the midlands? This shouting of
Swipes, however, had no effect, be-
cause we were going so fast that his
words never reached Peter, who stood
with his hand ‘on the lever, watching
grimly the track in front. As Swipes
continued to shout out the mile postS,
I cried:

“Hold on, it’s the telegraph poles you
are counting.”

“No, it isn’t,” he replied, “it’s the
mile posts.”

"Nonsense,” I cried. “At that rate
we are going at the rate of 108 miles an
hour.”

“A hundred and eight it is then,” he
said. “Stoke her up, Petei. ”

I then called the general manager’s
attention to the fact that it was not
etiquette to tell .an' engine driver to
“stoke up,” as that duty was per-
formed by Billy Joues. He apparently
learned for the first time that engin-
eers do not do their own stoking, and
he thanked 11:0 for the information. At
last the mile stones passed so rapidly
that Sv.":;cr= could not keep track of
them, so we abandoned the attempt to
count fifth :1 ::d took only the stations.
as we had a. record of the distance be-
tween them. I saw now by making a
calculation between two stations that
we were going at the rate: of 160.45 an
hour, and my hair would have stood on
end were it not for the fact that it was
standing straight out. behind. The
oscillation was somewhat dreadful, and
once I realized with horror as we swung
around a. curve that all four wheels
were off the track, and that we were
flying in mid—air; luckily, however, the
wheels came down on the rails and all
was well once more. By this time the
stations passed us in one continuous
streak, as if we. were running through
the suburbs of a big city, and I was won--
dering all the time when we would come
to the town, but finally I realized that
it was impossible to keep time with my
excellent watch, and so we would have
to lump the thing by calculating how
long it took us to come. from London to
Glagow. The lid of my watch, which
I now inadvertently exposed to the
breeze, snapped and blew away, and I
saw that the gold of the hunting case
was beginning to flake off, so I put it
in my pocket to save the rest of it. I
knew it was not yet two hours since we
left London, and to my amazement I
I recog-
nized the place because I was born there.
“That can’t be Glasgow,” I shouted
to Swipes. “If it is we have traveled
something like 200 miles in an hour,
and the Lord only knows what speed
we attained in making up for the time
when we were crawling on at 70 and
80 ”

“That’s Glasgow all right enoug
said Swipcs. Then he yelled to Peter;
“For heaven’s sake, shut off steam!
Don’t you see where we are?”

But Peter was struggling with his
engine, and all at once he yelled back
at us:

“I can’t stop her, sir!”

“Heavens and earth, " said I.
is to be done ?” ,

"‘1 don’t know,” said Swipes. “It’s
my own fault. I told Peter in the hear-
ing of the engine, and she is one of the
cutest engines on the road, that we
were bound to break the American
record, which is 510 miles. You see, it’s
only 401. 5 miles to Glasgow, and I’ll bet
you that brute is bound to do the other
109 miles to-night, even if she has to do
it on the highway. The railway stops
at Glasgow, and I don’t know what’s
going to happen.”

As he concluded the sentence there
was a crash and a bang, and the next
moment we were in the principal street
of Glasgow tearing along the rails of
the street car line. Luckily, the same
law being in force as was in London,
nobody was out on'the streets, and so
we went at the rate of 84.75 miles an
hour up the main thoroughfare of Glas-
gow and finally struck the north road
for the Highlands. Peter was strug-
gling all the time with his engine, but
could not make any progress in his en-
deavor to stop her.

When we got about 50 miles on the
main road from Glasgow, sometime-s
slowing down to 63 miles an hour, on
the hills, Peter with a white face turned
toward us and shout-ing:

“My God, sir, we’re on the Craigneput—
toch Loch road, and the Craigneputtoch
Loch is at the. end of it about 50 miles
ahead.”

“How far is it from London?” yelled
Swipes, putting his handS‘beside his
mouth to 'make the sound carry.

“The middle of Craigneputtoch Loch
is just 510 miles from London, and it is
over 1,000 feet deep in the middle,”
shouted Peter.

“There’s where she’s making for,”
cried Swipes, unbuckling the straps and
clinging to the stool.

The hills now rose grandly around us
in the darkness and we saw the black
water of the loch.

“Jump. Peter, jump!”
as he threw off the straps.

Peter did so, and I cut the strap that
held me.- Instantly we were all—Peter,
the stoker, Swipes and myself—~lying
on the hillside on the heather. The
doomed train had plunged right. into
the center of the lake. It had com-
pleted its 510-mile race and used up the
fraction by sinking 1,000 feet to the
bottom.

Luckily, none of us were hurt in the
slightest, with the exception that

Transportation in [Pennsylvania
Before the Railway Era.

Canal Boats Were Then in Great De-
mand—The Principal Artery of
Traffic in the Early
Times.

 

And what primitive transportation
they did have in those old days of ’46.
to be sure! Railroads there were in the
east, and had been for full 20 years,
but not here. Pittsburgh was .a far
western town then, of but 30,000 in-
habitants. The patient, plodding, tow-
pa-th mule was good enough for the
Pittsburgher of ’46, who peacefully and
contentedl'y wended his way to J ohns-

town in 30 hours and was well satis~

fled. if he landed in Philadelphia in
something less than a. week. To us of
the post-bellum generation this is hard
to realize. The canal boat and the mule
seem relics of the misty past almost as
unreal as the Indian with his toma-
h-awk and birch canoe. And yet there
is many a hale and hearty citizen, still
in his prime, to whOm they are vivid
and well-remembered realities.

Practically all the commerce of Pitts—
burgh 50 years ago was carried over the
western branch of that famous water-
way called the Pennsylvania canal. Its
western terminus was Pittsburgh, its
eastern Johnsto-wn, the route between
the two places being as follows: Cross-
ing the Allegheny river by an aqueduct
at the foot of what is now Eleventh
street, then up the west bank of the
Allegheny to Freeport, then across the
river again by an aqueduct, up the
Kis-hkiminetas river to Saltsburg;
thence up the. Conemaugh to Johns—
town.

The route of the canal in this city
can be traced, though not a vestige of'
it now remains. The basin, wheremost.
of the loading was done, was practic-
ally the end of the canal, though a- tun-
nel which passed under the city almost
in the line of the present Pan-Handle
tunnel carried the canal through to the
Monongahela. There were many small
canal boats, which were used to bring
in. the products of numerous market
gardeners whose farms were scattered
along the fertile lowlands beside the
Allegheny river. These market boats
were called “Fannie’s,” just why, is not
apparent. Possibly, in earlier times,
when the first of these boats came
into use, some charming, smiling F a11-
ny used to sit at the. tiller and guide her
father’s load of pumpkins and pota-
toes into the city on market. day. The
" 'Fannies” were hauled by one horse.

But the pride of the old canal was its
packet boats. The handsome craft.
would not. out much of a figure beside
the Virginia. of to-day, but they were
looked upon as something" elegant in
the ’405.’ This. was. one,- of thetwo great
highways to the east, this canal, and :1.
much-traveled highway it wastoo, con-
sidering the scanty population west of
the mountains in those days. People
coming up the Ohio from Cincinnati or
elsewhere usually preferred to keep the
river, and continued up the Mononga—
hela to Brownville, and there took the.
famous old national pike 130' Cumber-
land. Cumberland had' a railroad then,
and so the journey to the seaboard was
easy from that point.

But to return to the packet. boats.
They were 70 to 80 feet long and were
drawn by four horses. They were not
much unlike the canal boat‘s we see to‘
day,when we see them at all,.but neater
and more pretentious, as was fitting
for the finst-class patronage they e11-
joyed. Many a blushing bride and
groom there was that took that jour-
ney to the east.

And what a. journey it was! On, up
through the hills, by and‘ over many a-
stream, to the foot of the Allegheny
mountain‘s; then across that formi-
dable barrier, down into pleasant east--
ern valleys, and again by the pictur-
esque canal on to the brim of the
mighty Susquehanna- Here one
seemed to be getting into some sort of
permanent civilization; from here the
iron horse made the rest of the route
easy, and at last one was actually

Not So Benighted.

King Menelek, of Abyssinia, whose
troops have recently given the Italians;
a trouncing, is much more civilized than
Americans suppose. Several years.
ago the king asked Massala, the Italian
envoy, to secure him a semingmachinc.
of which he had heard. The machine
airived in parts, and the envoy had it
can ried to the palace with much pomp-
Then an unexpected difiiculty was e11-

countered. , No one could put. the parts

together, and after a day’s work Massalu
had to give it up. ,The king smiled
good-naturedly, and ordered the parts
taken to his room. >IIe worked all
night, and the next morning sent for
the queen and the Italian envoy, to
show them the machine in complete.

Emperor vaiam’s Rose.

A pretty story is told of the. first meet-
ing of the German imperial pair. The
German emperor, then a young man of
20, was shooting at Prinkemau. One
day he lost hisway in the park, and
came upon a rustic, rose-covered sum—
mer house, where a. pretty girl of his
own age was sleeping in a hammock.
He did not disturb her, but went on his
way, thinking of the little German
poem known as the “Brier Rosa” Later
in the day he met the girl in the castle,
and, sa ying: “Here is my brier rose
again,” he introduced himself, and fell
in love off-hand. They were married
on his 22d biithdm. Since that time

Fellow-Feeling Made Kindred of tthClerd
gyman and the Homeless Boy.

An American clergyman whose dream
it had been to visit England crossed
the ocean at last for his ten weeks’ va-
cation. ‘ For a fortnight he enjoyed go;
ing about alone from place to place,
seeing the sights,
lonely and then homesick.
day morning he started out for a long
walk, having no plan for the morning‘s
recreation. He penetrated far into the.
wide reaches of the east end. There
were crowds of men, women and chil-
dren wherever he went, but not a face
that he had ever seen before or. would
ever see again. Turning from the busier
streets he found a narrow lane, and sat
down on the stone step of a dreary
tenement house. While he was s1tting
there he heard a child’s sobbing voice
from the open hallway behind him.
Looking around, he saw a little urchin
crying as though his heart would break.

“What is the matter, my littlefcl-
101v?” asked the clergyman, in his gen-
tlest tone.

“Homesick, sir,” said the child; “since
mother died I have nohomc'. I don’t
. I want
some one to talk to.”

“Well, lad, there are two of us. I am
very lonely, too.”

"But haven’t you ahome anywhere ‘3”

“Yes, but it is a. long way ofli, across
the sea.” .

“Why don't you go back to it? If I
only had a home I would never leave it...”

The lonely minister, who had found
his vacation in the awful solitude of
London unutterably depressing, did not
have an answer ready. But his heart
went out to the homeless ‘little waif.

at a charitable institution, paid board
for him at a lodging house, and finally

DRIED EGGS.

Like Brown Sugar.

Both in England and Germany ex.-
periments have been made to preserve
eggs by drying them, and to supply
the market with this article as a sub-
stitute for fresh eggs. Inasmuch as:
the product is somewhat cheaper than
fresh eggs at certain seasons of thi-
year, while its nourishing value is sell-Ll
texbe almost the same, , the proceeding
deserves some attention. In the factory
which has recently begun operations. :11
Passau, Bavaria, the process is as fol
lows: The eggs are first‘candlcd in
order to examine their quality. All
good eggs are thrown into a very large.
rapidly rotating vat, in which the
centrifugal force separates the egg
shells from the yolk and the white.
The mixed fluid is taken out of this vat
and dried by a process in which com-
bined currents of air and heat are used.
After. its being thoroughly dried the
product is packed in barrels, the fin-
ishedz' article appearing like browu
sugar. Experiments made with pre-
servedz eggs, which had been shipped
twice across the equator, showed that
omel' ttes and other dishes could be
p1epared tasting exactly as if made
of fresh eggs The Passau factory
during the height of the season pre
serves from 8,000 to 10,000 dozen eggs
per day. Several poultry farms haw
been started in the neighborhood but
even these are not suflicient to supply
the necessary quantity of fresh eggs
for the factory, and agents sent out by

' them buy up all the eggs for miles

around. The product of this factory
has recently appeared in the German
markets, and although the general
public vieWs with some distrust the of
fers of this substitute for fresh eggs.
the excellent quality of the preserve;
has already made many converts.—

Bow to Treat Lettuce.

' When lettuce comes from the market
immediately cut off the roots; far
enough to loosen the larger leaves.
“Rash it all thoroughly, spread out an
old napkin, or, better still, a square oi
cheesecloth, and place the clean, wet
lettuce leaves, as though they were all
together again, in the center. Tie the
corners of the cloth together like a
ped‘dler’ 5 pack, and place it on the me.
When time for serving arrives, though
it be not for two or three days, the let-
tuce will be clean, crisp and perfectly
dry. This is the ve1y best way to pre-
pare it, and does away with drying
each leaf—a process sure to bruise the
tender leaves. Celery should be treated
the same way. Cut off the big tops
prepare it for the table, piece by piece
11 rap it in :1. wet cloth and keep on the
ice At meal time there is nothing to
do but. put on the celery dish what is
needed, and it will be‘ cican, dry and
crisp—St. Louis Republic;
