This is both sensible and economical. Acorns are cheaper than ties, and while creosote is not as cheap as acorns its cost is infinitesimal when compared with the damage bill of an accident to a passenger “train, | R, AND MRS, JARR were going out to spend the | day with the Jenkinses at East Malaria “It's terribly hot in these cars," said Mrs, Jarr, as they took thelr geats in the train, “If the train doesn't start soon I'l] faint.” The train started in due time and the Jarrs discovered vhat they were on the sunny aide “We'll be all right {n a few minutes," gasped Mr, Jerr, Hardened commuters all around them commenced to slam down windows, the train went into a tunnel which was dark, but was not cool, Nearly suffocated from the engine smoke, the Jarrs with joy beheld @ gleam of light and heard the windows go up agnin.

The Jarrs decided to take the trolley, but when the trolley came to the depot !t was packed outside and in and Mr Jarr went back for a hackman. They were ail gone but one, who sald he was “waiting for a party.” “But there'll be no train for an hour,” sald Mr. Jarr, “why can’t you take us down and be back?” "Well, I could do ft as a favor,” sald the hackman, ‘but mind, as a favor, and I'd have to charge you two dollars.
