'' j' 'V'U Up fouver la th auu'i ut
Daw3in's Delis; the dare the midnight
express was saved from destruction
by Sylvia Sylvia of the Dells!
Lest there be even a momentary
mlsapprrtsenai.m of existing facts and
conditions- it may be just aa well to
state right at the start that Sylvia
was a gentle dreamy-eyed common
cow; no not a common cow! Could
a common cow display an intelligence
a realization of an impending danger
and then withal possess the moral
courage and stamina to stand stead-
fast and alone to ward off disaster
to save the lives of a hundred imper-
iled human beings? Well hardly!
Night had closed In dark and rainy
oer the clustered homes of Dawson's
Dells. The ' wind howled dismally
along the narrow deserted streets
driving in fitful gusts the sham rain
against the window-panes causing? the
inmates of the lowly modest homes
to draw closer to the blazing fire
places while a feeling of genial
warmth prevailed o'er all.
Outside nothing was stirring: vps
there was one: Sylvia Sylvia of the
Delis was sUrrinar.
As she stood patiently chewing her
cud in the back lot the thought
came to her of a certain hay stack in
an open field several miles up the
railroad track. True the stack did
not belong to the same man that
Sylvia belonged to; but why squabble
over a minor point like that!
She could readily find her way to
the stack on the darkest night; she
had been there many times before.
In fact so persistent so pains-taking
had been her attack upon the leeward
side of the stack there was now a
great hole wherein she could crowd
her whole body.
What could be more delicious on a
night like this than to crawl into the
hole and sheltered from wind and
rain contentedly chew the fragrant
timothy till morning? Nothingabso-
lutely nothing!
With Sylvia of the Dells to plan
was to put Into immediate execution.
Climbing through the bar3 of the back
lot she started for the stack; to ex-
pedite matters she took to the rail-
road track.
Scarcely had she gotten beyond the
yard limits of Dawson's Delia when
she paused horror-struck! .
The long trestle had been washed
away by the foaming torrent that
roared and raged beneath!
She glanced hurriedly back at the
town clock! Heavens! In 15 minntea
the midnight express would pass Daw-
son's Dells!
But a moment she hesitated: then
quickly ghe retraced her steps head
ing hurriedly toward a red switchlight
burning just beyond the depot
Would she be in time? She must-
must save the express!
Rushing frantically up to the switch.
she caught the red lantern over her
horn then started bravely down the
track again for the wash-out!
A low rumbling sound behind her
reacnea ner ears the express was
coming!
She knew the express would not
even slow up for Dawson's Dells: in
all her life she had known It to stop
there but once once when It broke
an axle on the forward coach.
On on she rushed the red light
swaying with her lithe graceful move
ments and the rapid beating of her
palpitating heart!
The rumbling behind her grew
louder! the flash of a headlltrht
pierced the murky darkness as the
great engine rounded the curve!
Quickly she turned and swung the
red signal back and forth across the
track; she was answered by a shrill
blast of the whistle with the roar of
escaping steam and the grinding of
air-brakes the heavy train came to a
sudden stop within a hundred feet of
the yawning chasm!
The train crew came running for
ward to ascertain the cause of the
danger signal accompanied by many
of the frightened passengers. In mute
horror they gazed on the raging tor-
rent before them into which they
would have plunged but for the Intel-
ligence the intrepid courage of Sylvia
of the Dells!
Loud were the praises showered
upon her; but she took all modestly
even coolly she had but done her
duty!
In tliB excltmPOt of thn momon
Sylvia had unfortunately swallowed
her cud so she gratefully accented a
chew of tolneco from the engineer
then swimming the torrent she con
tentedly made her way on to the hay
stack.
April 2d Cloudy; more rain.
The Fault of the Gun.
A successful oculist of Baltimore
recently put ia a day or two with his
new shotgun in the reed-bird marshes
near Washington.
He soon noticed that when uslns
the left-hand barrel he usually brought
down the game but that when using
the other barrel he invariably missed.
He finally tacked a small target to a
bush near the river's bank and fired
at it several times with each barrel
in order to bring the matter to a test
The result confirmed hl auHniMonn
Ontt barrel was ail right or nearly so
and the other was all wrong.
"Well" said the oculist to a friend
who wks with him "as nearly aa !
can make out the gun has a seven
rase of strabismus Hh strong armn
J toms of astigmatism''

Politeness and the Clock.
When a very polite woman has corm
pany she never looks at the clock.
If by any means her eyes must wander
to that side of the room she very
carefully looks above the clock or be-
low it or to one side of it but never
Is she guilty of the rudeness of look-
ing at the clock itself. When a guest
looks at the clock and comments upon
the lp'.ness of tne hour then a hos-
tess may look at it but she must im-
mediately in very polite and ladylike
terms insist that the dock lies; that
it Is at least four hours too fast. The
clock Is an Important factor in true
politeness. Only by utterly ignoring it
when there la company can a woman
become a perfect lady. Atchison
