Her suppers pleased him more then her singing. The latter did not suit him, for it did not suit his mood, and this was it yin- dietive feeling towards skipper John Berry, it fishermen. Skipper John sailed in a boat he called Spiteful. She was trueto her name. More than once she had upset him. Still he clung to her, and that very day of our story 1-0 had sailed by the light- house, As ha wept, he saw Grandpa Sin- clair out on the rocks fishing. Resting on his oars, he opened it conversation with the light -keeper. The two men got into a 'dispute about the merits of a certain method of fishing. Skipper John Berry threw two or three ungentlemanly epithets at the light -keeper. "Yon. ought to be ashamed of yourself, replied the Nett -keeper- ' am too muels like you to be ashamed of myself for anything Ido," was the fisher- man's answer, The man on the rooks was very much offended. go, he did not like Jonme's song to -day, He went outside the lantern, and leaning over a parapet of stone gaud upou the sea.

" John will have to learn how to steer it boat. 0, what a fool ! Well, well, let Win orry. 'Twill do him good. Should's% mind if he got—" Was he going to say upset? He did not say it, for suddenly up the lantern stairs, as if a spring robin were singing, there came a sweet warble, "We do forgive, and freely. too, Eor we w uld like to bo forgiven." " That gal 1" said the lighakeeper pet- tishly. That robin, he should have said ; that robin that would keep on singing of sweet charity, and would not be stopped. And whet did the robin do but come up into the lantern itself 1 Singing, too, all the way, louder and sweeter. "Can's stand. everything 1" murmured the old light -keeper, brushing the tears from his eyes. "Sounds like her mother's voice when she was it girl, and she is an n gel in Heaven."

Cover closely, set in a warm place over night. In the morning add warm, water to make about three pints of wetting; d ivide for two loaves. Have white and graham flour warmed, the former sifted. For the white beef, stir is flour with a spoon till like stiff cake dough; do the same for the graham loaf, using graham flour, and adding a, heaping table- spoonful of brown sugar. Keep warm till light, then knead thoroughly using only white flour for both kinds of bread. The flour should be warm and worked in slowly (rnueli depends upon this) until the mass is elastic but not sticky. This may be put into pans at once, but it hi better to let it rise again, then knead lista loaves, using but little flour. Let it rise to more than double its own size ; bake in an oven quite hot at first, but cooled down slightly after the loaves begin to brown; they should rise very little efter going into the oven. If the beet is just right they will be sufficiently baked in three-quarters of an hour, possibly less. Graham bread requires, perhaps a trifle longer baking than the white. Take from the tins immedietely and expose to the air as much of the surface as possible; if in an open window, all the better. This produces a soft crust ; leave it until nearly cold, then cover. —(Good Housekeeping. ^ ON A RAILROAD TRAIN. The Safest Mace to Ride. Any man who is supposed to keow much about railroada ie enre to be asked what is the safese place in it train. The question is an easy one to answer by reasoning, but the soundness of the reasoning is hard to prove. There is no doubt as to what is the most dangerous place. That is on the locomotive. In most serious accidents to passenger trains the engine is involved. In it butting collision, or "tail -eider," an engine runs into the rear of a standing traiu, oeone moving more slowly. In a side col Mon an engine corning off it side track runs into the eide of at moving or standing brain; or an engine runs into a tilde at a crossing of two railroads. There are variations of all. these sub- divisions of the collision class of accidents; but, generally the engine is in the thick of the wreck. In derailments, too, the engine goes off the track and is overturned oftener than any oat, simply because it the first thing to strike the obstruction, or tlie brokers rail, or wrecked bridge. So ib follows that in pas - ;tenger service the en gineman and fireman are in a position much more dangerous than that occupied by any other train. hands. In freight service this danger is son.ewhat less, relatively, because the brakemen must run over the tops of -the moving cars, This is a most dangerous thing -to do at may tune; and in a snowy night, or a night when ram is freezing into sleet, it is about the most perilous thing that human beings do for a living. There is another plam where some people ride which is even snore domgeroua than the engine or the top of a moving car. This is the truck frame under' it freight can Thisnace is frequented by persons who art neith-er passengere nor emplo3 ees. They are nat even named ; but when once them gets killed he is reported as a tramp." When we think of the clanger and horrible discomfort of it railroad journey in that place, 11 seems as if ono would almost as soon work as travel in that way, After a little thought one would say the aafest place in a railroad train is in the middle of one of the ears, somewhat ahead of the middle of the train. If all accidents were collisions, and all cers were of equal strength, this would be true. Whether the collision is a butting one or a " taileuder," the full force of the blow is felt by the vehicle which is struck first; and the force is gradually lost as it is carried forwardor backward through the train, till some place ie found in the tram where the blow is least felt. For example, in case of a tail -end collision, the rear ca,r may be snuished into kindliug- wood, the next one less injured, and. so on to the ba,ggag,e car, where the shook may be so slight that men stAndiug there are not thrown down. Therefore, one uould thiuk that the safest place is just in the middle of the train ; but there are two reasons why.the safest place is forward of the middle ea the train. The engine is so much heavier andstrong- er than any car that it takes up more of the shock then is abeorbed by a cat On this accoent, if your train is run into from the front, the force of the blow cannot travel back so many feet as it can travel forward when the treats is run into from the rear. The second reason is, that rear collisions oat number butting ones nearly two to one. The records of the List eleven years show almost exactly two to one, For crossing collisions no rule can be laid down, because the train is as likely to be struck in one place aa in another.

"Ain't. you going down ?" "3: think not." At the moment a gentle clinking nf silver- ware was plainly to be heard, "John." The answer was quite inarticulate.

" "Haven't you insisted that if be escaped without being chewed up he would be fortu- nate ?" It seemed as if it glass or two must have been swept off the dining roam table below. • Alice." There was absolutely no reply. " I've been thinking, Alice, since you woke me." "Indeed?" "1)3 just occurs to me, my love, that my lifo insurance policy expired to -day." The door from the dining room into the front hall was heard to creak on its hinges. " Alice, 1 cau't bear to thiuk of leaving you to struggle alone in the world." To judge from the sound, serious articles were being placed in a sack, presumably for facility in transporbation. "My love, I am convinced that this is a case for compromise. If those people stop right where they are and go quietly away now, I am disposed to hi?. lenient" Very distinctly they heard the front door open and close, after which stealthy foota. steps sounded from the street. "They've got everything." she moaned. " Everything. "They would certainly have gob into trouble." he declared decisively, "if they hadn't stopped right where they were," To his friends next day he wondered how thieves could get away with so much plun- der and not awaken a, single member of the How Relies are Made. Mr. Archibald Forbes, writing on the fall of Sedan, tells a curious little story which shows bhe dubious origin of historical relies. After all was over, and General Wimpfen had signed the capitulation, Mr. Forbes and a companion found shelter for the night in the very room where ,the capitulation was drawn up. While he sab writieg to his newspaper, his friend gnawed a ham bone, there beteg nothing left to eat. At last the man threw the ham -bone carelessly upon the table, and it upset Mn.Mr. Forbes's ink - bottle. Some time after, Mr. Forbes re- visited the scene, and the guide showed him the table m'arked by a huge ink -stain, which Wimpfen had messed by overterning the ink -bottle in the agitation of his Shame and grief. Great sums had been effered for the table with the historic ink -stain, but the owner valued it too much to part with it.

So far, then, we have proved that the safest part of a. train is nomewhere forward of the middle. This worildbe the caeeif eller most railroad accidents were collisions ; but in fact there are about twenty-five per cent more of derailments than of collisious. In a derailment, the forward part of a train is the more likely to be injured; and in tlsis class of accidents the place of great- est safety is probably the rear car. So, taking the average of collision and derailments together, the safest place seems to be somewhere back of the middle car, but somewhere forward of the rear car, As a rough uuess, correct enough for prac ticalpurposes71 should say that the" safest, place' is about two-thirds of the way back of the locomotive. This, however, is only a guess, and cannot be proved. The safest can having been found approx- imately, it remains to see what is the safest place in that car. This is doubtless the middle. In collisions, the injuries to persous are generally caused by telescoping." The floor -timbers of 0110 ear got tipped up so as to slide over those of the car next to it; or one car may be higher or narrower than another. The heavy framework of the higher or narrower ear is driven into the other one tearing out the seats and cutting throug% the light side framing. Of course the chances of iujury are more near the end that is crushed in. In derail- ments, too, the greatest damage to the cars is generally near the ends. Let us see how our theory fits in with the facts. We will take only the most serious accidents of 1889 and 1800. In August, 1890, there was a, derailment at Quincy, Mass., in which twenty-three persons wore killed and thirty were wounded. All who were fatally injured were in one car --the fourth from the engine and the sixth from the rear. This car, while not in tbe posi- tion as we have shown to be she safest, was still in a relatively safe pint of the train. A derailment at Carmel, Indiana, in Jan- uary, 1890, resulted in the death of six and injury of twenty-six. In this etwe the wrecked cars were the last three of the train —quite contrary to our theory. On the other hand, the two accidents of 1 890 next in importance to the Quincy ac- cident go to confirm the theory, At Shoe. makersville, Pa., September, an engine a.nd five cars went over a. bank and twenty-one people were killed and thirty injured. The rear of the train stayed on the track. At Oakland, Cal., in June, the first car of a train went iuto an open drawbridge, and thirteen persons were drowned. The worst accident of 1889 also make for and against the theory. In February, at St. George, Ontario, a train went through a. bridge, causing the death of twelve and the injury of twenty-six. The.engine caused the wreck of the bridge, but the engine and two cars went over safely, and all the harm was done in the last three cars.' At Hamilton, Ontario, in April, twenty were killed ana a dozen or more injured in a derailment. The train consisted of ten ears, of which only the first four were wrecked. , The most fatal accident of the year, and one of the worst in railroad history, was near Armagh, Ireland, in June. About eighty were killed and two hundred and sixty injured. The rear ten cars of it long excursion train broke away on it grade, ran back down the hill and collided with the engine of a following train. In this case the front third of' the train would haye been the safest place, and the rear third was the most daugerous. If we should go back through the years, Children Cry for.
