Conductor Wilson of the "Klectrlc
( Flush , " a term applied In kindly do-
rlolou to the passenger train on thu
.Gooso river branch of a cortnlu grout
( western railway , WUH culled upon ono
morning to apologize In behalf of bin
engineer , and IIH ! apology , from end to
end , Including stops and slowdown
iin the Hnylng In , wan. not entirely do-
.void of entertaining featured.
"Tho truth of the mutter IH , " mild he ,
addressing the principal kicker , a trav
eling salesman from Milwaukee , "that
there's only one man on earth who un
derstands the teakettle that wo um > In
place of a real locomotive on thin line ,
and bin name's Hill Carver. Mill knows
her from the track up. He given her a
put here and a Jab there , and HIO ! net
tles down to her puces like un old fam
ily horse. Hut let a new man luke
lier , and she either gets on to her hind
logs and goes crazy or else Hhe sulks
mid won't go at all worth mentioning.
She's sulking this morning. "
"I should think so ! " growled the Mil
waukee man , looking at his watch.
"We're forty minutes late now , and I'll
mips my train on the other roud.
Where Is Carver , anyway ? What do
they let him go away for without tak
ing his bunged old steam pot with
him ? "
"He's at Geneva Lake by this time , "
replied the conductor. "He cumo down
iwith us lust night , llo's on his wed
ding trip. By George ! You wouldn't
have known him , togged out as he was
In the regulation black , with his hands
In kid gloves and his feet In patent
leathers. He could hardly drug his
KU7.o away from his bride long enough
to recognize the teakettle ; that's a fact.
Ho was simply soaked full of love or
( whatever It Is , and he was purring like
R kitten. I'd never have believed It of
him , for of all the mean things 1 ever
heard any one Buy about women as a
BOX and about marrlagu as an Institu
tion he'd oak ! the meanest , lie never
hud any patience with Idiots who re
pose confidence In petticoats. He said
women were all false as hades und
foolish as barnyard fowls. He was
married to his ridiculous old engine , ho
IWIIB , and ho never wanted anything
better In this world , Of course wu mar
ried fellows knew when ho spouted
that sort of stuff that he'd been dis
appointed in some love affair and that
he didn't really mean all ho thought
he meant , but none of us was ever able
to pump him out. So we Just laughed
lit him and told him that sooner or
later he'd meet something In petticoats
that would jerk him over the line and
Into the roundhouse as a mogul jerks
a sick switch engine. It made him
snort to tell him that , but it's precisely
.what happened. If 1 ever saw a man
who'd lost the last vestige of his pow
er of resistance , it was him last night.
He was coal In the scoop of the tire-
man , nothing else. "
"IIow did it happen ? " asked the Mil
waukee man , glancing uguln at Ills
watch and settling resignedly into his
Bent.
"Well , as near as I can make out
from what I was told at Whlpplevlllo
yesterday by n chap who lives next
door to Bill's bride's folks up at Correy'
Center It was mostly Bill's fault that
he didn't get spliced long ago Instead
of going away in a hull' and turning
himself into n make believe woman
Later. The girl liked him all right , but
she was like most glrla she didn't like
to seem too easy. Bill might have un
derstood her if he hadn't been so lack
ing in ordinary what do you call It ?
perspicuity , lie slzeu up a woman just
as he did an engine. He expected defi
nite results. When he pulled the throt
tle , he expected her to go , and when
ho put on the air ho expected her to
stop , and when she didn't do these
things he got mad. Furthermore , he
gave the girl to understand plain enough
that he was dead gone on her , and that
! wus another mistake. He's fair , square
nnd nbovebourd , Bill is , and lie has
mighty little patience with any one
who tries to take advantage of him.
lie's no fish to be played on a string , lie
Bays.
"Now , there never was a healthy girl ,
I suppose , who wouldn't play with a
chap after she was sure she had him
hooked. It's the nature of 'em. And
this girl did things just to make Hill
mad. She flirted with other fellows ,
and she had little spells of false agony ,
when she made him think he'd done
something she didn't like and wouldn't
tell him what it was , nnd she twitted
him on his looks , which aren't specially
handsome , und altogether she curried
on In a way to drive an honest man to
desperation , although most men In Bill's
place would have brought her up with
a round turn. And at lust , one night
four years ago , Bill reached the limit ,
and for about an hour he read the riot
act to her. He was like a life or dcatli
special on u new truck simply shut his
eyes and made her run. Then when
he'd got through he slummed his hat
over his eyes und bolted , never looking
at the girl. I'll bet $0 she was holding
out her hands to him and trying to get
her talk pipe to work. A woman can
tell usually when she's gone too far ,
and almost always she'll come down
from her perch peaceably enough if
Bhe's given the right sort of a chance.
"He didn't go back to Correy Center
after that until about two weeks ago.
lie wouldn't have gone then only that
his mother was sick and wanted to see
him before she reached the end of her
run. So he gut a ten days' lay off and
u t bin teuth together as If he WUH go-
lug lute u den of llous or a baby show
; i
or something llko thai und went. The
old lady was better when he got there.
Within a week she was silting up , and
Hill's e.wiso for staying In the house
with her were pretty thin. Ho saw
the girl go pust several times und he
noticed that she. looked In with an ex
pression on her face thut resembled
anxiety , but It never occurred to him
that slio was so anxious to make up
with him that she couldn't eat nor
sleep. And I expect he'd have gone
buck to his denr old teakettle without
finding It out If It hadn't been for an
accident.
"Ho WUR standing In front of the vil
lage postolllce one morning , waiting
for tlio mall to ho distributed. Ho wan
keeping his eye peeled for the girl. Ho
didn't want to meet her. He WUH
afraid. He reasoned that It could done
no good and would bo confoundedly
oniburrusHlng. Ho never curries a
fulfil ) face with him , Hill doesn't. And
then , lee , he wasn't absolutely sure of
himself. Ho knew down deep In his
steam client that ho had about as much
affection for the girl as he'd over hud ,
nnd he rather suspicions ! that If lie
met her face to face ho'il miike three
or four kinds of fool of himself. He
could Bee her house from whore ho
stood-n pretty place In a regular snarl
of roses and honeysuckles and llowcr
s , and I've a notion that he looked
at It with something of longing and
regret. It was only natural that ho
should.
"Well , while he was standing there
an old friend of his came up on horse-
buck und nsked him If ho wouldn't do
i favor for him. Ho wanted Bill to
: ako the horse home. Some business
md unexpectedly claimed his Immedi
ate attention , and he didn't like to
euvo the horse standing on the street
fie thought Bill might llko a ride any-
way. Of course Bill said he would.
Ho didn't know any moro about riding
horseback than a woodchuck knows
of dairying , but he never hesitated to
accommodate n friend. lie got his
nail und climbed Into the saddle and
n less than three minutes something
was doing In his vicinity. The horse
was a spirited beast , with a habit of
Bhylng at everything which seemed to
offer an excuse for It , and every time
he shied Bill stuck lu his heels , and
n-cry time Bill stuck In his heels the
least took It as an Invitation to make
speed. Half way down the street ho
was galloping right merrily. A little
further and ho was giving a tolerably
correct Imitation of Garry Ilerrnmn ,
and Bill was bouncing like a rubber
ball. He said 'Whoa , ' but It didn't
seem to have any effect. Ills mall ,
which he hud tucked under his arm ,
was scattered broadcast.
"It dawned on Bill presently that he
was being run away with , but he didn't
lose his head. Bill never loses his head.
Said he to himself , 'I've got to shut off
steam. ' And he stretched himself on
the beust's neck , reaching for the nose ,
and he got a grip on it , nnd the first
thing that horse knew he couldn't
breathe , and something was on his
neck , for Bill had bounced clean over
the shoulders , and ho stopped dead ,
stiff legged as a suwhorse.
"But Bill didn't stop not at once ,
lie went on , and ho landed plump on a
pansy bed In the yard at the end of the
street , and when lie opened his eyes he
was looking square Into the face of the
girl , who had been sitting under a tree
reading. Neither spoke for a moment.
The girl's color came and went , and
Bill's breath did likewise , but pretty
soon the girl's wits , which were lu
working order , it seems , asserted them
selves. 'Oh , Will , ' she said , 'I'm so
glad you've come back to me ! '
"Bill raised himself on his elbow lu a'
dazed sort of way and tried to Bay
something , but his breath wasn't quite
equal to It. And the girl went down on
her knees and wrapped her arms about
him. 'So glad , dear ! ' she murmured.
"They got married. That's all , there
was to it And we're doing the b st wo
can till they get back from their honey
moon trln. "
The semblance of a sinlle appeared
upon the Milwaukee man's face. "I
suppose that under the circumstances
we'll have to forgive him , " ho said.
"But , by Jingo , I'm sorry we're going
to miss connections at Whlpperville.
I'm to be married myself tonight if I
can get to Carllnsburg. "
"Pshaw ! " said the conductor. "You
don't say ? " Then he chuckled. "Guess
you'll have to go horseback , won't
you ? "
' 'Not on your silver plated punch ! "
replied the Milwaukee man decidedly.

There used to be a custom of strew

Is a quaint old verso that refers to this
custom. The Persians introduce n tree
ot their mnrriugo feiists laden with
fruit , and it is the place of the guests
to try to pluck this without the bride-
Broom observing. If successful , they
must present the bridal couple with a
gift a hundred times the value of the
object removed. In Tuscany brides
wear Jasmine wreaths , and there is a
legend that a once reigning grand duke ,
who nt great expense procured this
llowcr for his own particular garden ,
gave orders to Uls gardener not to part
with any flowers or clippings , but the
gardener , who was in love , took a sprig
to his sweetheart us u gift She , being
shrewd , planted it and raised from It
several small plants which she sold to
the duke's envious neighbors at a great
price. In a short time she had saved
sutllclcnt money to enable her lover and
herself to marry and start housekeep
ing , nnd so the Tuscans have a saying
that "tho girl worthy of weurlng the
Jasmine wreath Is rich enough to make
her husband happy. "

Ton * of Food l'"or the Atlantic.
, Commenting on the tremendous

All over Italy social life is character

Here is an anecdote which Mr. Luigl
Vllla'rl relates In "Italian Life In Town
and Country" to Illustrate this national
feeling :
An American gentleman who was
spending the winter in Naples had
taken a fiat in a pulazzo , the first floor
of which was occupied by a noble fam
ily in somewhat reduced circum
stances. He noticed to his surprise that
every day he met a servant going up
or down the Btalrs carrying n pair of
carriage doors. At last the mystery
wa6 explained. The said noble family
shared a carriage with some other people

the family coat of arms , to make their

THE SAUERKRAUT PEDDLER ;
A Character Common to the German
Section of New York.
The regular and popular visitor to
the German inns and taverns of the
cast side Is the sauerkraut man. Ho
brings his calling with him from the
oM vtnvtrg tp& Qp&t. o I&JXQ profitable
field In New York than In Berlin or
Hamburg. His equipment Is quite cu
rious. He wears a blue or white apron
running from his neck nearly to the
ankles , and from his shoulders is sus
pended a circular metal box which
goes half around his waist It has
three largo compartments , two of
which are surrounded by hot water.
In ono are well cooked frankfurter
sausages and in the other thoroughly
boiled sauerkraut In the third com
partment is potato salad. Ho carries in
his hand a basket in which are small
plates and steel forks. One sausage
nnd a generous spoonful of sauerkraut
nnd iotato salad cost 5 cents. All three
articles are of good quality , well
cooked and seasoned. He finds his best
customers in the bowling alleys , where
the exertion demanded by the game
produces large appetites. Next to these
are the taverns which do not supply
food with their drink. Last of all are
the halls and meeting rooms where
different societies assemble. His night
ly stock consists of fifty sausages , sev
en pounds of sauerkraut and as much
more of salad. On bad evenings he
takes only half as much stock as on
fair ones. Some of the more fortunate
peddlers have arrangements with clubs
. which pay them a very fair profit upon
their goods. Others are free lances
who visit every place where they think
they can effect a sale.
The metal boxes are very Ingenious
nnd are made In Germany. The metal
is some variety of pewter , and the
fitting of the compartments and of the
entire affair to the body is very ac
curate. The covers are so well hinged
and snug at the edges that when the
owner falls down he is not liable to
spill any of the contents. The con
trivance costs some ? 3 in Germany ,
and about $5 in New York. A few of
the peddlers appeal to educated pal
ates and carry with them cervelat ,
bqck , rch , lebcrwurst and Vienna ,
as well as frankfurters. These fancy
sausages usually bring 10 cents instead
of the regulation 5.
The forks arc washed after the CUB
tomer has finished his little meal , nnd
from repeated cleansing ana use nre
as bright as silver. The plates , on the
other hand , are so banged and bruised
that they might be easily mistaken for

CnrcfnlncN * of Surgeon * .
It Is an object lesson In godliness to
see a surgeon washing his hands after
performing an operation , says the Chicago
cage Chronicle. He works of course
with sleeves rolled up to the elbow , so
that the washing extends from the cra
zy bone to the tip of the finger nail.
First there Is a hard scrubbing with
plain soap and sterilized water. This Is
followed by a swabbing with tincture
of green soap and sterilized water.
Then comes a genuine scouring with
equal parts of quicklime and soda in
sterilized water nnd finally a rinsing In
a solution (1 ( to 2.000) ) of bichloride of
mercury. Without these four separate
washings no surgeon would think of
venturing out to scatter germs of dis
ease.
