Yes, in just a hundred years from to-day.’” “But you understand I've quit, don’t you? . ; s ; ‘Quit what?" : o “Rambooze.” “Huh'” and the superintendent wrote rapidly, pretending to forget Jack and his jug, and all else but the pay roll that he was signing, : “Goodby, Mr. *Highway," said Farley, ‘moving towards the door. “Goodby, Jack—here! yvou're forgetting something.” . “No,~ said Jack, “I've quit,” and he vased out, looking very pale and sad. . Long before the end of the one hundred years Farley was braking on " the hill again. - Three years from the day he gave the old man the jug he was running the old man's car. For the first time (and the only time, so far as 1 know) the superintendent had taken his two little girls out with him, He was a. worker, and used his private car for the company and never for himself, but, being a kind, affectionate father, though a terror to trainmen generally, he had concluded to give the children a little excursion at the ‘other end of the line. . As.they acme down the hill that day they met -and passed a freight train on a slding. The rear engine had been cut off and set in on the opposite side, so as to clear the main line, but the men on the head end did not know this. In going in on the siding the pusher had injured her - pilot, so now she could not push. She "would have to change places with the head engine. - The conductor signaled the head engines; they each blew three short blasts, the pusher answered, and the ‘train began to back away. The moment the head engines Dbegan to back out the conductor realized that he had made a mistake ~that the men shead did not know

L Nothing is more familiar nor more mysterious than popular songs. Learned, high-brow persons say that they have a psychology all their own. For example, why is it that a young man can sit in the gallery and blubber loudly over the mother in a song, and then go home and thrash his own mother because she hasn't enough money to give him to buy a drink with? : : ' } Most of us think it is the public that makes a song popular. That does happen occasionally, but not often. The popularization is almost always the result of a carefully planned and executed campaign on the part of the publishers. They ecall 1t “boosting,” when they don't employ some other technical expression. Mostly every | business has queer kinks in it, but the song business has more curious twists and.turns, apparently, than all the others put together, For example, Harry Williams, who wrote the words for “Navajo,” “I'm Afraid to Go Home in the Dark,” and ever so many others, penned “In the Shade of the Old Apple Tree” as pure l‘buflesqne on the popular ballad. The publisher and the public took it se lr!ousky. and it netted him personally | just sl6,ooo.—Sunday Magazine.
