Some people think it one of the hard est strains on human nnture to be obliged to wait at a country depot for tne train, a nauosopaor takes rest pleasure in hanging around a depot for tnree hours, uurtnjr the nrst nneen minutes he reads all the railroad cards banging in tbe waitmg-rootn. If he is near-sighted or a poor reader he can put in half an hour at this. 'Every de pot in thi broad land has a frontdoor. The scenery from a depot front door is always grand. There Is the track each wnv; there is the water-tank; there k often a small grocery on the corner opposite, with two small boys licking toetr iips before tne )ar ot candy m the window, it ts often the case that a depot is aur rounded by booses. Here is a great chanoo to speculate. If there are, say, twelve booses within sight. the philosopher can wonder how many are nnder mortgage, what peroenlage of husbands have missed the ton-stair in going down cellar: how many moth ers-in-law make homo happy, and so on, for an hour and a half. There is always a dog. a small boy and a lame man around a depot. A philosopher will make advance to the Kdog and manage to tie his hind legs tother and start him off with a yelL will win the small boy's confidence with a smile, aad give him a cent to stand en his head. He will get up a reunion with the old man and draw htm oat. The old man got hurt by tumbling into a ditch when he was drnnk, but a sharp man can start the cor vernation so that be will claim to have received the hurt while climbing Look-out Mountain a rod ahead of Joe Hooker. Two houra and a half thus slip by on the wings of lightning. While the lu.r tat man with the carpet'ack has gone to sleep in despair, the philosopher h.n boon having n bully time. The other half hour is a mere nothing-. The philosopher put that in by asking tbe telegraph operator how long it took him to learn; oy taxing nvn or six annas inm the water-cooler; by walking np and down the platform, and counting the bird on the telegraoh-wires; or by walking two or three miiea down the track to meet the train and ask the conductor if bis family are as well as ueu.tlThere is no ewrthlv reason why nry waiting paajwtarar shouldn't take oltd romfort around a depot.
