There are people who pcoff at the
theory of luck , but Tim Doimiui Is not
DUO of them ,
Tim was a brakonuin on ( ho P. and
tT. railway six months ago , and a
freight hrakoman at that , with a pret
ty Mini prospect ahead of him , lie do-
ppalred whenever ho thought of a cer
tain ( ih'l who was HO practical that she
refused to marry him until his salary
( was adequate for an establishment.
, The fact that she culled It an "estab
lishment" showed plainly that her
emotions were under control of her In
tellect. A sontlinontal , Impulsive crea
ture who loved a man as this girl loved
Tim would have called It a llttlo homo.
Tim Isn't a bnikoman on the P , and
Qnow. . lie Is a conductor on ( ho P.
nnd U , and ho and the girl have their
"establishment" and are deliriously
liappy.
Luck did It , Tim says , and ho proves
It by tolling the story.
"Mohby you know and mebby you
don't , " IIP begins In a subtle brogue ,
'that the windows of heaven were
opened over a small spot In the north
ern part of Missouri ono night hist
Juno. Mebby , again , you know and
snobby you don't that the P. and T.
road runs parallel with the V. and L.
for about six miles after Icavln * St.
James. They cross the Hluo river each
on Its own nice llttlo bridge within two
sullen of each other , the P. and T.
bridge belli' up stream from the bridge
oftho F. and L.
" 'Twas lucky for me they fixed It BO.
I was slttln' on the hack platform of
the caboose the night when the cloud
busted. My work was finished for the
minute , and I was restln * and nursln'
u bad tit of melancholy. My hopes
[ were blacker than the night Just then ,
ami the night was blacker than the
inside of a brunette cat. I saw nothln'
to look forward to , and that's a worse
etato to bo In than Arkansaw. I was
ayln' to myself that I believed I'd
commit Hiilcldo and end the agony
( wlio.il all of a quick midden the train
ntoppcd.
"Mobby you never experienced the
ncmmtlon of belli' on a freight train
imusimu MK err WITH ra
iwheii It stops suddenly. 'TIs like a ton
of coal droppln * Into a man's throat.
"For a minute I forgot my troubles.
I grabbed my lantern and went up
ahead to see what was wrong. 'Twas
easy to see. By the gleumln' of the
headlight on the engine-1 saw a roarln' ,
howlln' flood of water. Hluo river was
lull and runnln' over way over. The
track on the bridge was all but cov
ered. 'Shall we try It or not ? ' says the
engineer to the conductor. 'Walt till
, wo look at the bridge , ' says the con
ductor. 'Come , Donnan , we'll go and
BOO If 'tis safe.1 And we wont.
" 'Twas a fool thing to do what 1
did then , but I was In a desperate
xuood , and the rushln' of the flood af
fected my brain , I'm thlnkln' . I told
the conductor I'd go across and take a
peep at the anchoriigo on the other
elde. And I started , the conductor of
fering no objections visible to the
naked car , and got half way across
mebby when biff ! a tree that made
ordinary bawlogs look like matches
struck the bridge nnd brushed me off
( with its branches as easy as a whiskbroom -
broom disposes of a crumb.
"Ar-r-rah , the swim that followed !
"I don't know the words that de
scribe It. But luck was with me. I got
my hands on to u regular Pullman of a
orailroad tie , and I clung to it as the Ivy
clings to the moldorln' wall. 'Twas
nothiu * rcseuibllu' suicide the way I
stuck to that tie. And every once or
twice in awhile a chicken coop or a
iwoodshcd or a cord of wood bumped
Into me , knocklu' out prayers like
sparks from an anvil.
" 'Tls ray humble opinion that the
current was ruunlii' at a rate of 410
miles to the hour. Mebby 'twas moro ,
and mebby 'twas less. I didn't stop to
measure It. Anyway , 'twas but a short
time till I brought up against the F.
mid L. bridge with such force that six
of my teeth took refuge in my stomach
ach and a constellation of stars danced
before niy eyes , furnlshln' sufficient
light to enable mo to crawl on to the
bridge.
"The bridge was about ready to
break loose. I crawled off of It rapid
ly. I'd had all the trip by water that

"Luck ? Well , Hay ! "
A Mil HIT of Glovcn.
"Did you never notice how much bet
tor inen'H gloves look than women's ? "
mild the man. "Go Into any public
conveyance and look at the gloves of
the passengers and you will be Im
pressed by the superior condition of
those worn by men. Two-thirds of the
women you meet cover their hands
with suedes and dogskins that are
shockingly soiled and worn. It Is not
only women of generally shabby ap
pearance who are guilty of wornout
linger tips and ragged scams ; many
who are otherwise well groomed and
who could afford to put on a fresh pair
of gloves every day are equally culpa
ble. Men would bo ashamed to go on
the street wearing such disreputable
things , but women Haunt them un-
! ) lusldngly. "
"That sweeping condemnation Is un
fair , " protested the woman. "Tho con-
lltlon Is easily explained. Women wear
.heir gloves much more than men , and
) ealdes It Is awfully destructive to lin
ger tips to dig around In purses for
change and samples and to handle
candy , to turn over books and to exam-
no dry goods. "
"Now you have Jumped the subject , "
said the man. "I am not talking about
cause. I am talking about effect. The
majority of men certainly do wear bet
ter gloves than the majority of wom
en. You cannot deny that"
"That Is true , " the woman admitted.
"I cannot deny It ; they can bettor af
ford It also. " Philadelphia Times.

"Yes , It Is a pretty good cigar , " said
Brown , as ho held It up and looked at
It critically. "Jones bought It , but If ho
thinks he bought my silence with It ho
Is mistaken , as the story is too good to
keep. Jones , as you know , considers
himself a great ladles' man , although
lie Is old enough to know hotter. I was
walking with him this afternoon , and
lie could talk of nothing but his 'latest. '
Suddenly ho exclaimed :
" 'By Jove ! There she is now , across
the street. Isn't she a peach ? "
"Oft came his hat with a flourish , ex
posing his bald pate , and an Idiotic grin
spread over his features.
"Much to my surprise , for she did
not look like a girl who would indulge
In a street flirtation , she waved her
hand , hesitated a moment and then
otartcd to cross the street whore wo
were.
" 'They can't resist me , ' said the
beaming Jones. 'Excuse uio , old man ;
sec you later ; ta , ta ! '
"Hat In hand and grinning like a
monkey , Jones approached the young
lady , who suddenly stopped , looked
startled for a moment and then gasped :

trouble about me. Have your cue

THE WATCHMAN'S
STORY
ICopyrlrjht. 1M.1y \ \ C , IJ.
I Inul been the night watchman nt
Parker's bank for three years wlion my
adventure liiippiMivd. A burglar alarm
connected with doors and wliulowH ami
a special wlro ran from the bank to tins
pollco Htallon. I wan required to HIMH !
In a Hlgnnl over this wlro uvery thirty
minutes. 'I'lio code of signals ran thus :
Ono pimli on the button , "All Is well ; "
two pushes , "I am III ; " three wishes ,
"Help IH wanted utoneo. "
Ono wlntor'H night , between calls , I
fell asleep and WIIH awakened by a
liand clutching my throat. I started
up to II ml throe men hovering over mo
and realized that burglars Inul come at
lust. The first thing ono of them did
was to wild In the "All IH well" call ,
and I was then tied fust to my elialr ,
and the trio began work on the doors
of the vault. It wan done for In about
ton minutes.
Then they began work on the Inner
looi'H. They used what Is called a
blacksmith's drill. All of thorn seemed
familiar with Its working , and they
had brought along no loss than six dif
ferent drills for the machlno. Wylt
was begun Just under the lock , the men
spoiling each other at Intervals of ton
mlnutoH. When the 2 o'clock signal
was sent In , they had made a very
slight impression on tho. . hard metal.
mt lit 2:30 : the signs were moro encour
aging.
At 3 o'clock the trio were delighted
with the progress of the work. At 3.10 :
they ceased drilling , blow a lot of pow
der Into the hole and Inserted a fuse ,
mil pretty soon there was an explosion
which toro a great plcco out of the
door , but did not burst It open.
They did not use the drill again on
the door , but on a closer examination
decided to blow It open. At 4MO all
was ready. While the lender placed
the fnso the other two picked up my
chair to carry mo Into the president's
room. All were to remain there until
; he explosion was over. Just what
lapponed to bring about the premature
explosion could never bo learned , but
: ho probabilities arc that In his Imsto
; ho man cut the fuse too short. Ho
was still kneeling at the door and the
three of us had our backs to it and
wore about eight feet away when the
nine was sprung. The Jar of the ex-
) Ioslon was felt two blocks away.
I cannot remember that I heard the
explosion. 1 simply remember being
lifted up and hurled forward. The
next thing I know 1 was sitting up
with a hand over each ear , and the
room was In a midnight darkness. I
felt so stupid and dazed that It was
many minutes before I could place my-
self. The gag was out of my mouth ,
uid the ropes with which 1 had boon
jound to the chair wore hanging looso-
y on my arms and legs. When 1 be
gan to feel around to see where I was ,
I discovered that 1 was close to the
wlro gate by which all employees on-
; orod the bank Inclosuro. The door of
; ho vault was almost on a line with
this gate , but sixty foot away. Be
tween the gate and the vault were the
compartments of bookkeeper , paying
.oiler , receiving teller and discount
clerk , each railed off with wood or
wire.
You can judge of the strength of that
: ) last when 1 toll you that everything
in that sixty foot was leveled , the
small safe blown over and the counters
twisted like a rail fence. As soon as I
realized the situation I groped for a
match and lighted a gas Jot , though
the room was so full of powder smoke
that It was some time before I could
BOO a foot from my nose. When the
Btuokc lifted so that I could get about ,
[ lighted moro gas and then looked for
the burglars.
Ono of them lay in a heap against
the front door , a second under the
counter near whore I had picked my
self up , and the third I could not lliul ,
though I knew ho must bo under the
vault door , which had boon blown off
and lay on the floor. The man at the
front door was stone dead. The doc
tors said that his body must have
swept down all the railings and parti
tions as he was hurled forward. The
man under the counter began to show
signs of life as I overhauled him , and ,
thinking he might prove troublesome ,
I tied him hand and foot. You will
wonder that I was not severely hurt ,
but that was the chance of accident.
The chair was completely wrecked , but
I got off with three or four painful
bruises.
The man under the counter had his
nose broken , two ribs fractured and re
ceived a bad scalp wound , but ho had
no sooner recovered consciousness than
ho began to struggle and curse. When
I told him that both his partners were
dead , ho was awed to silence for awhile.
Thou ho began cursing again , and I
stepped over to the pollco wlro and sent
In the signal "Help wanted nt once. "
It had never boon sent in before , nor
have the words gone over that wlro
Blncc. In five minutes there wore four
bluecoats knocking at the door , and
when I lot them In niy prisoner greeted
them with Jeers and curses and swore
ho would got even with mo If It took
100 years.
The loader , as I told you , was kneel
ing at the door when the explosion oc
curred. Wo found him under It , crush-
cd and burned and bearing llttlo sem
blance to a human being. The ono who
escaped with his llfo was sent up for
twelve years , and thus the trio were
wiped out.
I have an old scrapbook In which are
pasted various newspaper articles In
my praise , but It's not much consola
tion to read thorn. The bank officials
know I must have been asleep on duty ,
and Instead of patting mo on the back
and raising my wages they waited
about a month and then gave mo the
grand bounce. _ t. _ , M. QUAD.
- ' COLOR IGNORANCE.
It In n MnUrr Wliollr Apnrt From
Color Illliiiliirnn.
Color blindness wns the topic under
discussion. "They tell mo I'm color
blind , " mild the lawyer , "but I don't
bellevo It. Often. I admit , I make mis
takes In colors. I sny that pink Is red ,
1 say that green Is blue. Hut It Is only
the names of the colors I am off In. 1
mil not , I Insist , color blind. " The oculist
list who was In the party nodded ap
proval.
"Exactly , " ho said. "Thoso diagnos
ticians of yours mistake your caao.
They take color Ignorance for color
bllndneHs. Hero they are as Wrong as
though they should say music Igno
rance wa < i music blindness ns though ,
I mean , because you could not toll that
n certain struck 110(0 ( was 'K flat , ' you
were dead to all musical gradations.
Some years ago , when the examination
In colors of railroad men was Inau
gurated , a howl wont up over the
amazing amount of color blindness In
America , and many a good man lost
Ills job unjustly. These men had been
off In the names of colors , not In the
colors themselves. They could in a
day or two have been taught what they
lacked. Many of them , It is likely ,
were not color blind. I say this be
cause recently I hoard of an examina
tion of SOO railroad men that was con
ducted In the proper way on an Eng
lish lino. About seventy of these men
were a little off regarding color nomen
clature , but not a single ono of them
was color blind. " Philadelphia Record.
Orloiitnl Squnttcm.
Most artists depicting the cast show
men sitting crosslcggcd , tailor fashion.
Easterners don't sit like that. Usually
they stick their calves beneath them ,
sit on their heels and with the soles of
the foot pointed upward , a painful pos
ture for an occidental. The Hindoo
usually rests on his haunches , with his
knees pyramid style and his chin on
their level. Try that attitude ten min
utes and sco how you like It.
Traveling eastward , as soon as you
touch Turkey you reach a district
where sitting on the Moor Is the custom.
You may then Journey on for thou
sands of miles , also north and south ,
and the millions in that region nro all
lloor squatters. When you arrive In
China , however , then you are among
other millions who sit on chnlrs. Go
over to Japan , and then you got among
squatters again. The question Is , Why
Bhould the Chinese , among all the na
tions of the cast , use chairs ?
Ilnii IloiuniiH Tonic Tliclr Food.
The Ilomaiis reclined at their ban
quets on couches , all supporting them
selves on ono elbow and eating with
their lingers from dishes placed in the
center of the table. Each was supplied
with n napkin , and knives were used ,
though It does not appear that every
one was supplied with ono. Nothing ,
It would scorn , could bo moro fatiguing
than to partake of u repast hi such an
awkward posture or less conducive to
neatness , it being almost Impossible to
keep the hands clean even with water
supplied by the slaves or to prevent the
food and wine from falling on the
clothing and the draperies of the couch.
This manner of eating disappeared
during the dark ages so far as the
couch was concerned , but the peculiar
ity of taking the food with fingers from
n common dish continued afterward
for moro than 1,000 years.

was the dream that I had no difficulty
In recalling it , and then as I went over
each detail of dress , armor , Jewelry , or
naments and other objects seen In my
vision I realized that everything I had

Is to say , that probably in a fraction of
a second my mind had conjured up a
scene to constmct which , with the
same faithfulness to detail , while
awake would have taken mo several
hours. "

MALARIA
Germ Infected Air.
Mnlaria is not confined exclusively to the nwnnips
nml marshy regions of the country , but wherever there is
bad air this insidious foe to health is found. Poisonous
vapors and gases from sewers , mid the musty nir of damp
ccllais are laden with the genus of this miserable disease ,
which are breathed into the lungs and taken up by the
blood and transmitted to every part of the body. Then
you begin to feel out of sorts without ever suspecting the
cause. No energy or appetite , dull headaches , sleepy and
tired and completely fagged out from the slightest exer
tion , arc some of the deplorable effects of this enfeebling
malady. As the disease progresses and the blood becomes
more deeply poisoned , boils nml abscesses and dark or
yellow spots appear upon the skin. When the poison is
left to ferment and the microbes and genus to multiply in
the blood , Liver and Kidney troubles and other serious complications often
arise. As Malaria begins and develops in the blood , the treatment to be
effective must begin there too. S. S. S. destroys
the germs and poisons and purifies the polluted
blood , and under its tonic effect the debilitated
constitution rapidly recuperates and the system is
soon clear of all signs of this depressing disease.
S. S. S. is a guaranteed purely vegetable remedy , mild , pleasant and
harmless. Write us if you want medical advice or any special infonua-
thm aboul your case. This will cost you nothing.

him while he was rolling about on the
