""Play with the children!" was the recurrent advice of a wise and suc cessful man. "This will keep your heart young, your viewpoint fresh, your wit sparkling. The child heart is at once the purest and the happiest in nature; the child tongue is a transfiguring power." Something of this indubitable power attaches to good stories of those naive and innocent "little ones" scripturally declared specially blessed and potent. The child mind transforms, the child touch lifts to glad laughter incidents and accidents not otherwise worth noting. Witness this little tale of the careful mother to whom came -a tiny son all agog over the acquirement of new and forbidden knowledge. "Mother!" .cried the child, baby eyes shining, baby cheek glowing, "do you know what I'll be hornswog gied* means?"

ALBKRT \ Phil- Carswell, chunky and curly headed, was heaving anthracite from his "firing deck" through the double doors of the camelback "1040." In the right half of the cab forward of the firebox sat Engineer Dan Thorn, hand on throttle, eyes on the rails ahead. Dan had the biggest shoulders of any B. and D. engineer. And strong! Phil 'knew. pne dark night eight years before, a freckle-faced boy, who thought himself a practical joker, had stretched two wires across a sidewalk, ankle high and twenty feet apart. Then he had hidden. Dan, hurrying home, tired and' cross after a hot day, had fallen over the first wire. Ke came up, muttering wrathfully. Freckle-face was not after such big game. He ran, forgetting the second wire, and fell over it himself. Be fore he cculd rise Dan had him. That ,was why Paul had never set any more wires for Dan or anytody else. ' Well, well, what will not time do! . Here he was, lodge brother to Dan, and firing on his very engine. Odd est of all Dan had not recognized him: Perhaps it was not so very odd, eith er, for Dan had given the licking, not received it. But Phil bore no malice. Some time, possibly after he got his own engine, he would ask if Dan re membered the boy whose jacket he had dusted. But that would keep. Meanwhile Phil shoveled coal and ad mired the big shoulders. Behind o?d "1040" rumbled the long convention special, packed with Sir Knights bound to their annual as sembly. Every man aboard, includ ing the entire picked crew, belouged to the order. It was the train that day. Thil had just taken his third degree. He felt proud to "fire" this trip. The special slowed down. Phil saw a red signal at Worumbo flag station. "Wonder what Pike's got np his sleeve for us now?" he grumbled Un der his breath. He did not like stop ping on the up grade with ten heavy cars. ? He saw Dan reach down and snatch a yellow telegram from the agent. Then they put on speed again. Phil shoveled hard a minute. Then he went along the running board to see what Dan. had. Ordera were that engineers must, acquaint their fire men with any message. Dan sat silent, reading the track. He passed Phil the blank. It spelled out: "Run slow. Wreck near station. Fisher." Phil walked back without a word. A hundred'dusty miles of the hoi June day had wearied him. He was glad the terminar- lay just ahead, and that no more coal would be needed on the easy down grade. He was about to start for his own season the left of the cab when? above the roar of the wheels rose a sudden shout: "Hey, Phil!" Out he leaned to see what Dan ?wanted. Bn-n-ng! rang an explosion, like the report of a shocgun. So quickly that the sound seemed almost contin uous, follpwed the crash of rending metal. A glittering steel bar, rising from below, shattered the cast iron running board and tore through the cab. The air hummed with ragged fragments. Involuntarily the fireman started back to avoid the deadly show er hurtling down the side of the en gine. Too late! A terrible pain smote his right temple; a burst of forked red flame died into utter bla?kness. and he dropped unconscious on the sloping coal in the tender. . o * . . * ? Phil woke, as one might wake from ether with the surgeons still at work on his head. Great blinding throbs of pain went over him, as he lay num bly, eyes shut, trying to puzzle it out. Why was he lying thero .with that specially hard lump of coal under his neck? Something must.have struck his head. His knee, too-how it twinged? HO. tried to rise, but fell back, sick and dizzy, everything awhirl round him. ' What was that thumping and clang ing, os if somebody were battering a pile of old junk with a crowbar? What made the engine jump so''. An accident? *Yes. That sharp re port meant that a crank-pin had sheered off. 'Now Phil understoocd it. The parallel rod, thrown loose, was pounding the ties and smashing up through the cab with every revo lution of inc driers. But Dan! Was he living or dead? ? Thrashed by that awful steel bar, how had he any chance! And there was , the camel-back driverless, rac ing wild down-bill at sixty miles an hour, with three hundred unsuspect ing passengers be-hind, a:id rhead a network of yard-tracks and a crowded station. It was enough to maie a man's h^ir rise. Phil's did. Eyc3 sLill shut, he shouted: "Dan! Dan!" Ko ?epiy; only fte hammering of steel. Again he called; again no an 6 v. er. With an inmence effort Phil sat up. What was ihe matter with him? He iu.w do'.?bi?.

TOWAN. j with blood. The shock of the iron I fragment had affected his optic nerve. Fortunately, his brain was clear. He rose unsteadily. He must find out what had happened to Dan. But this seeing in duplicate bothered him. He reached toward what he thought was the real hand-rail, and came near pitching off head first. The next time he got it, dragged himself pain fully forward, and looked along the flank of the engine. The worst had happened. The bot tom of the cab had been torn away. Its top hung on the boiler, a twisted, battered wreck, and flung under it lay a blue-clad body, with one leg swinging loosely near the whirling steel flail. Even as he looked, the knee bent slightly, and a groan reached his ears. Dan was still alive, but fearfully hurt. Phil saw that the forward end of the running-board had been smashed, to flinders; and real ized that it was one of the fragments that h??d struck his head.1 But he had no time to think of himself. The first thing to do was to stop the train. That came ahead even of succor to the engineer. In deed, it was the quickest way to aid Dan. The fireman could not help him so lone; as the parellel rod was flying loose. Every time that rod came down, it gouged the> road-bed and ties; every time it came up, it hit the cab. It would be a miracle if Dan got out alive. A culvert whirred beneath. Derby Brook! Only two and a half miles to .the station. That meant a little over two minutes. The throttle, reversing lever and air-brakes were on Dan's side of the cab. so it was not of any use to think of them. Perhaps Dan had phut off the steam anyway before he was dis abled. But the momentum of the heavy train rushing along the steady down grade would be sufficient to carry it to destruction, even if the whirling connecting rod did not lift and throw the locomotive from the track. Something must be done. Phil decided to break the connection of the air-pipe, swinging under his feet between engine and tender.' To do it he must ge!: down on the step. A spur-track flashed by-Morri son's Siding. A half-mile gone. Phil reached carefully for the rail, and swung down on the left step, until he could peer underneath the tender. The dusky space above the rushing ties se?rr3d full of pipes, their connections well in toward the centre. Holding on with his left hand, he stretched his right over the hose toward them. His reach fell short by several inches. Round a curve they whirled, and Phil almost went off backward. Their speed was- terrific, not a mile under sixty-five an hour. Scattered houses flitted by. They were enter ing the outskirts of the city. The fireman realized that to break the connection he must climb practi cally under the tender, at that high speed a. difficult and dangaroous task even for an uninjured man. How could he do it with his dizzy head and double vision? He thought of the three hundred men behind, ignorant of their peril. Twining his legs round the iron step, he started to push himself under the car. A yell of alarm was whirled away behind him; he caught a sidewise glimpse of splintered wood and twisted framework. That was the wreck! Lucky they had been able to get the track clear before the train vent by. He pushed out one hand tentative ly toward what looked to be the framework oi the forward trucks, but touched nothing. Down he lurched. With a strong effort, he drew himself back from the road-D*ed spinning away so fast under his face, and tried again. This time he touched solid iron. From'the ties flashing beneath, the dust rushed up into his face in a hot whirlwind. It blinded his eyes, it choked his moutu with grit. Coal dust sifted on him from above. For a second he steadied himself, his hand on the hot iron, his body quivering jelly-like from the jar of the thun dering wheels. Suddenly the air cleared. The road-bed grew blacker. A strong smell of sun-warmed kero sene rose to his nostrils. Already they were in the railroad yard, rock ballasted and sprinkled with oil. The station was less than half a mile ahead. Phil clutched at a swinging con nection, and again his fingers came together without anything between them. It was maddening. It was such a little thing to do, such a simple thing; only the pulling .

It was a thing he could do with one hand, al most with one'finger, if he got hold right. ' He made a second clutch at the bulging joint, and? missed again. He could not afford another mistake. The1 next time his fingers hooked round a joint, and he pulled up to break it: but it would not give way. The fireman had a vision of what would happen in a few seconds more. He saw the engine sweep through the barrier and flimsy fence, and hurl itself like a battering-ram against the granite walls of the waiting-room. He saw the cars piling against it and toppling over on each side. He heard shrieks, groans, the hiss and roar of steam. j He gave a strong, sudden jerk, and the pipe snapped apart. Phil had not time or strength to get out. The best he* could do was to hang there, praying that the brakes might hold. If the engine struck anything he would be mashed to pulp or ground under the wheels. Far back to the very end of the train he heard a shrieking, a grind ing, 2s the brakes caught at the spin ning wheels, hung to them, drngged at them. Would they hold in time? He had done all he could. A shadow fell over him. The hot blast from beneath suddenly stopped, and the c?mel-back roared under the roof of the long train-shed. The blare of a band' mingled with the rumble of, the wheels. Beyond the pipes he saw a commandery drawn up on/' p?rade; he caught flitting glimpses of white gloves, swords and gold-laced uniforms. The music ceased; cries, alarmed, warning, filled the air. 'He stiffened himself for the final tremendous shock. The train stoped with a last squeal of brakes. He tumbled off and glanced for ward. An innumerable throng with countless j hands outstretched was rushing toward him, but before it closed round him he saw two "1040s" with their noses almost touching tho double barrier at the end of the rails. Careful hands disentangled- Dan from his battered cab. and an ambu lance1 hurried him to the hospital. One leg and several ribs were broken, and he was fearfully mauled, but his strong constitution pulled him through all right. Phil did not get to work again for six weeks. It took ?him that time to recover his normal eyesight.1 When he did go back, he had an engine of his own: The first time he saw Dan after that he mentioned the freckle faced boy and the vwire, and found that Daa remembered.-Youth's Com panion.

Tidings of great joy for the girl who lives in a furnished rocom or a boarding house and has to pay gilt edged prices for her laundry are the announcements of crepe underwear on sale in the shops. Nightgowns and chemises are made of this deli cate, shimmery white cotton crepe, and with their trimmings of lace they are exceedingly, pretty. Eut the best thing about them is that they needn't be ironed. The woman who ls trar eling, for instance, can wash one of these garments out in the bowl in ber hotel room, suspend it on a "hanger" I from the gas jet to dry-being care ful to pull it gently into shape-and in a few hours there it is, nicely laundered and ready to wear.-New ark Call. RAINY DAY SKIRT. This is a very good suggestion for keeping overskirt out of the wet on a rainy day. It will be found a great convenience. Buy a piece of broad black elastic, a yard. Form it into a circle large enough to fit the hips. A hook and eye on both ends will be perhaps better than sewing the elastic* into a circle. On a wet day put this "circle of elastic about the hips over the outside skirt, then pull up the skirts evenly till around the elastic and above ic. This will lift the skirt from the ground. A coat may then be slipped on, when the elastic will never show. The skirt will stay up, which will be found a great relief from- holding it. You. will also do away with crushing the skirt by hold ing it in your hand.-Newark Call. TO CLEAN VEILS. Referring to the fashionable white veils, perhaps some of you may like to have a few hints as to how they may be cleaned at home, for the pro cess is by no means difficult. Put a good-sized piece of soap in a basin of boiling water and make a thick lather. Have the lace rolled around a bottle or glass plaque, and put. this' into the suds. Let it soak for half an hour at least; if very much soiled, the lace may be left in a great deal longer. Then put. it into a fresh hot lather, and afterwards rinse it thor oughly in cold water. When the veil ? is spotless spread it out to dry on a! clean cloth, pulling it gently into shape. When dry, stiffen it by dip ping in-to a little gum water (half an ounce of gum arabic to a quart of water), then press it while stil^damp, having pulled it out nicely each way to keep it in the right shape.-Paris Fashions. TASTE IN HALL DECORATING. In choosing the color for a hall, says Lucy Abbot Throop, in the cur rent Woman's Home Companion, the amount of light in it must be taken into account as well as the size. If lt is bright and sunny, darker and richer effect* may be used even if it is"\fairly small, but it must be remem bered that dark colors absorb arti ficial as well as natural light. Choose a light, warm, general .tone and have all the rooms opening from the hall form a harmonious color scheme. When th?* woodwork is white, a gray landscape paper above the wainstcoting and a plain gray blue stair carpet and rug of Oriental de sign in blues and browns will make a most charming hall. A mirror in a dull gold frame, with a small ma hogany table and two mahogany chairs of Colonial design, will prob ably be all the furniture it is possible to use. At the rear of the hall have a screen to conceal the hat-tree or the hooks used for the coats, and also put the umbrella rack behind, it. . If the hall is so small that a table and chairs are out of the question, it is a good plan to have a chest in stead. This can be made useful in many ways, and will ssrve as a tnhle for the maid's card tray and as a seal for the waiting messenger boy. Tomato Toast-Take fresh 01 canned tomatoes. Stew them and season with sugar, salt, cayenne pep per and cream. Thicken slightly witii a little flour stirred to a paste with a small portion of the cream. Toast slices of bread, spread with butter, spread on the tomato while hot and serve -at once. . Eranbury Tarts-One egg, one cup sugar. Beat slowly. Add one rolled cracker, one ,cup raisins, one cup cur rants (chopped fine), one teaspoon cream, one-half teaspoon extract ol lemon, butter size of thimble. Eeat until soft. Spread between flaky paste crust and bake. When baked cut into squares while hot. Ginger Apples-About five pound; of tart apples; pare^ core and cut the apples into squares; five pounds light brown sugar, two lemons sliced thin, six ounces of preserved ginger root cut in slices; first put the sugar in a kettla with one cupful cold water and let melt; then skim after boiling un until clear; then put in the applet;, one-half teaspoon salt, lemony, gin ger ?nd boil until the apples iook clear and rich; then put into glass jars-, the same as any fruit; serve with meats.

WHERE HE SAW RESEMBLANCE Apt Remark of Small Boy Embar rassed Toper and Filled Car With Merriment. Jimmie, who is a very small boy living in the East end, accompanied his mother downtown several days ago. Nearly everything he saw was quite new to him, so he was not spar ing in his comments and opinions and questions. Seated opposite Jimmie and his mother on the car homebound was an individual who, judging by the "blos som" on his nose,, had partaken freely of joy water. None of Jimmie's neigh bors possessed an appendage that could compare with the one across the aisle. ' ' , In silence Jimmie took in the situ ation and the "blossom." His thoughts must have grown so curious that they could, not be withheld any longer and he Anally blurted out in a loud voice: "Mamma, is that Santa Claus?" pointing to the man with the red nose. Embarrassed, Jimmie's mother tried to silence her son," but it was rio use. In an audible whisper the connection between the man and Santa Claus was disclosed much to the discomfiture of the man. "Why, mamma, didn't it say in that story about Santa Claus that Santa had a 'nose like a cherry,' " he asked, and the car was in an uproar.-Pitts burg Times-Gazette. There Should.
