The answer was terse and brief:— "The lady's a kleptomaniac, The one in the rags a thief." —[Somerville Journal.

The Passenger's Story.

The night mail upon the Cumberland Valley Railroad had reached the heavy upgrade a few minutes beyond Kanakia station, when it became evident to the passengers (hat something had gone decidedly wrong. The speed of the train sensibly slackened there came a series of tremeudous jolts, accompanied by a curious and unpleasant whirring sound, followed in turn by a complete stoppage. A dozen heads were thrust inquisitively out of the car windows, and as many voices insisted upon knowing all about it immediately. In these days of magnificent collisions and holocausts the traveling public exhibits as astonishing amount of interost in railway concerns, to the great scorn and indignation of all officials connected. "You have nothing to fear," said the conductor, who passed through the car superb in gold buttons and official dig nity. "We have struck an upgrade where an oil train stopped an hour ago. The tracks are oiled ana the drivers don't take hold. We shall get the sand running in half a minute.

It was doubtless clear enough to those who understood such matters, but to me his explanation was more jargon. As somebody once said of Coleridge's com mentary upon his poem "Cristabel," wished he "would explain this explana tlon.'

If there is oil upon the rails, especially upon an up-grade, there is no friction, consequently the wheels spin around upon the tracks without moving the train." "Ah," said I, "I comprehend." "I could illustrate the cise by an event which occurred to me upon this very spot some years ago. I have always thought it a rather remarkable incident and perhaps you may find it so. The circumstances I refer to," he continued, "took place during the war. I was atthe timo adjutant upon General Thomas's staff during the exciting and momoutous campaign in the mountains of Tennessee. If you remember, there were many times when it was feared that our hour had come. Our communications were repeatedly cut off and our whole command in danger of instant destruction. It was at one of those crises that the event I am going to relate occurred. "We wore at this time Intreuched upon a spur of the hills around Chattanoga, whither we had been driven by the desperate courage of the confederates. Our own men had faught bravely and well, but they were exhausted with long marches and constant action. Our stores had run low, and but one line of communication was left open to us—that of the railroad into the eastern part of the State. By a brilliant flank movement the confederates succeeded In throwiug a line across this one highway and there we were hemmed in like a wood chuck in his burrow. Starvation or surrender stared us in the face. One or the other of these alternative we must accept in a few days at most, unless some unexpected change took place very speedily. "It is, perhaps, difficult for us to com-

reheud the reeling of a commander, and with the perhaps of a nation depending upon his action, placed in such a position as our General then was, J. saw* his face grow hourly more jvile and despairing, his step slower and more feeble, and his air that of a man whose heart and spirit was breaking under the strain. But Thomas Svas not the mail to jield until every resource had oeeu sounded to the bottom. And there was one resource yet left—a desperate ami almost hopeless one, it is true. "Forty miles to the eastward of us lay Stockton's command of nearly 30,000 wen, sereuelv unconscious of our danger and their own. Several days before, Stockton bad been directed to occupy a p**st in the mountasns on the left, and to hold it until further orders. Of course

get through alive. "Put in a conple of extra tallow cans, John," said the engineer. "We are going to make time, and I expect the old machine will heat up finely." "The cans were stowed away in the caboose, the engineer opened the thiot-tle-valve, and amidst an impressive silence in the crowd surrounding the starting point, we moved slowly away. About two miles distant lay the.firet tottery which the enemy had thrown open to command the road: beyond that were several more, to say nothing of the picket lines scattered along the tracks. So you will perceive we were to run a pretty warm gauntlet. "We had proceeded but a very short distance when there was a flash and report from the shrubbery skirting the road, and a bullet crashed through the window of the cab. An "outpost had already diacovreed us, and had given us a foretaste of what we were to expect further on. 'Let her out!' I said to the engineer. 'There is no use in trying to hide ourselves. Speed is our only chance now.' "4Very good, sir!" replied the engineer opening the valve as he spoke. The engine bounded like alspurred horse. On we went swaying from side to side, until it seemed as if we must jump the track. Meanwhile our friends along the road were not idle. Bullet after bullet whistled by us, but fortunately, what with the darkness and rapidity of our motion, none of them reached us.

We had now arrived in sigbi of the first battery. By the lights moving hurriedly along the parapet it was obvious that our approach was expected. As we past abreast of the battery it gave us its first compliment in the shape of a round shot, followed by a storm of grape. Here again the darkness and our speed saved us. Several of the grapeshot glanced off the frame of the engine without doing any damage, however. 'Give here some more flre, John,'said the engineer, grimly. "If they happen to knock a hole in us with one of them bits of iron you won't do no,more firing, my boy, I can tell you that.' 'Notin this world, any way,' responded the fireman, with saturnine humor. 'Can't tell what 1 may do in the next, William.'

"By this time we had passed out of range of the first battery, and we were under the guns of two more. These works had been constructed to command the junction of our road with an-

that moment a shell struck upon'the ca boose and burst within three feet of us It was a ten-inch monster, and how any of us escaped alive I fail to see. As it was, when the smoke and dust cleared away, I found the top of the cab gone, a portion of the caboose torn off, and the fireman lying in a heap on the floor,with his arm broken. "I am knocked out, William," he groaned, 'and who's to fire her for the rest of the trip?' 'I will,'said I 'I think I can manage it.' '•After placing the poor fellow in as comfoitable a position as possible, I seized the shovel and began my duties. "By this time we had passed out of range of the batteries, which now and then, however, sent a sullen shot in our direction, as a parting evidence of their good will. 'We are saf6,' I said, with a sigh of relief 'that was their last line of works The road is clear before us.' "I hope so, sir,'responded the engineer. 'How's your arm, John?" "'Very bad, William,' groaned the fireman 'but that aiu't (be worst of it. We ain't through with the trouble yet. "'What* do you mean?'I asked. 'The scouts say that there are no_ troops beyond, except our own at Kanakia station.' "'But they're following us,'replied the fireman. 'They are after us hot and heavy.' "I looked at the engineer, under the impression that the poor nreman was In a dedrlum with his injury. 'He's right, Captain,' said the engineer, listening inteutly. 'Sure as fate they have palled out that engine we saw at the junction, and are chasing us.' "'But there is no possibility of their overtaking us,' I replied. 'I donH know about that,' he said, gravely. 'That engine is a heavy one, and I have seen her make a good fifty tpiles with a train behind her. This one is alight machiue, and I can't promise more than forty at most. Besides, they have the advantage of us in the fact that they have a car attached and we are runniug^alone.' should suppose that our lightness would be rather i»» our favor than otherwise,' I responded. 'Got something to balance her,' grunted the fireman, sentionsly. 'John is right," explained the engineer. You see, sir, if an engine has no weight behind her she is apt to jump and pound the rails, and if you put her at fall speed, to get off the track altogether. So, while that engine behind us can do her level best, we can't even let out to

By this time the fireman was standing at the valves, and the Engineer had found the tallow cans, two brass vessels, each holding a gallon or more, with long curved spouts. One of these he gave to me, while he kept the other himself, and we scrambled over the coals to he rear of the tender. I had not the remotest idea of what we were going to accomplish, but there was no time to loss in explanation. -Now,' said my companion in an excited tone, lean over and pour your tallow carefully upon the track as we go along. Don't waste a drop, and don't leave a foot of rail unoiled.'

I obeyed him in silence, and soon the tracks for a long distance, behind us wereshining with the thick, greasy fluid.

was not idle. I bad kept the furnace at we are now amon white heat. The steam, pent up in the boiler, groaned and wheezed like the breathing of an imprisoned giant. The wheels spun aronnd upon the tracks, crashing from side to side, until there were moments when even the engineer peered with a startled eye out the side window at the complicated mechanism below. As we passed over a long trestle bridge across a wide marsh, I saw merging from the shadows at the other end, the black form of the pursuing engine, followed by the car. through whose lighted window a crowd of armed men were visible. Here he had a momentary advantage, for desperate as our enemies might be, the engineer dared not carry his weighty engine over the light framework as rapidly as he had gone. It was but a trifling gain, however, for once on the solid road bed again, the monster came on at redoubled speed. 'More fire. Captain,' muttered the engineer, at this moment, 'on this grade we must do our bast, or it will be all over in five minutes.' "I opened the furnace door and began shoveling in the coal. Upon the instant there was a flash and report from the cab windows of the pursuing engine,and a rifle ball smashed the dock in our cab, within an inch of the. engineer's head. 'The flame gives them a fine mark,' observed the engineer, calmly. 'The ball was meant for me, and but for the swaying of the engine it would have hit, too.' "I completed my task as speedily as possible and closed the furnace door. We were now in darkness again, and if a ball reached us It must be by acciuent. Our enemies made no further attempt, however confident, doubtless, of running us down very shortly. And well they might be. we bad ten miles yetto run before reaching a point where they would themselves be in danger of capture or destruction from our own division at Kanakia. During the last ten miles they had decreased the distance one-half, and running as we now were, it would be all up with us in five miles more. •'•Isthere nothing we can do?" I asked, anxiously. "'Pitch something on the track,' said the fireman from his corner. 'Maybe you can catch their wheels. Try one of the fire-bars.' 'It's a good idea, John,'replied the engineer 'perhaps you bad better make the experiment, captain.' "I seized one of the heavy bars, a piece of metal as thick as a crowbar and ten feet long, and clamboring over the coal in the caboose, leaned down and dropped the bar as nearly as I coull across the track. Heaven forgive me I but with what interest I waited for some crash or outcry which should signal thi destruction ofour pursuers. In a moxient more there was a sharp clang alonj the rajls

ire now among friends, our engine was stopped and the facts explained to the officer in command of the detachment. "There is a little more to rela e. Our pursuers and there engine were neatly captured. Stockton's division made a forward movement, and relieved Thomas and his army from their perilous position. As for myself and my brave companions, we were not forgotten, and I am glad to say that the inventive John, whose timely suggestions have saved our engine, and perhaps our army, left the service with the rank of captain in the Engineer Corps."

Having finished his story, and our train at the same time beginning to move on, my interesting companion wrapped himself up in his cloak and was soon fast asleep.

YOUR CHILDREN'S TEACHER.

The public schools of our land have their uses aside from educating ourchil-. dren. If you would like to-be convinced on this subject, a bad storm which keeps three or four of your flock at home will be a very conclusive argument. "I am sure another such day would drive me wild!'' exclaims the tired mother as she presses her hand to her distracted head. "I don't see how Miss Hodge puts up with so mauy of them all in one room th-ough the day. Teachers earn their wages, if only in the care they take of so many children for so many hours every day."

Yet how seldom a mother feels any consideration for this part of a teacher's work. Think of the tens of thousands of children all over the land, safely housed and cared for, besides being taught, who are "kept out of the mother's way through the busiest hours, leaving ber to work on uninterruptedly.

When they fire there won't te much left of us. And they will, too, in half a moment.' "I've an idea, said the fireman, arising stiffly from the corner. 'I can't fight ana I can't fire the machine, but I've one arm left, and that'll do to hold her stead while you and William put a spoke in their wheel.' 'But how,' cried the engineer. 'Speak quick, John, moments are gold now.' 'Where are the tallow cans we put aboard?' asked the fireman.

'Captain, those dispatches are eafe, and you owe it to John, for I should never have thought of it in a life time.'

Rome, N. Y., June 9,1888. FABMEB TALfti. I have been troubled for a number of years with kidney and liver troubles, severe pains in the back, with loss of appetite and vigor generally. Mj kidneys were very weak at times, with nonretention of urine, and a brick-dost deposit. I used several medicines and they did me only a temporary good. 1 was recommended to use Hunt's Remedy, and I purchased a bottle in Rome, N. Y., and found that the first bottle gave me great relief. I bad less pain in my back, my water became more natural, passed better, and needed less attention, and after using four (4) bottles I find that it has completely cured me of my kidney and liver trouble and consider it a wonderful medicine, and have recommended it to many who have found that Hunt's Remedy is all that is claimed for it.

No other blood-purifying medicine to made, or has ever been prepared, which so completely meets the vrauis of physiolans aud fixe general public as
