"'Mr. Harding wit ck P cried the man ass should. have it invites ago, and the len down in a fit. C th off on leave, and era's nobody left ba ust with the train.' " IV cried Jack, i rimy express I An ything but a freigh Well P cried the nit:stop to argue! d here is a minate ady I' Jack seemed to c at. He darted on s off like a shot) dr he ran. In lees ti Bing it I heard the ug train, and knew sted with a -tea t For we lived in a little house eh by the station., and when I heard th whistle of his tether's train, I used snatch the boy from his cradle or off th floor where he sat with his ptaything and ran ildwn to the farther end of th long ,dZitiot where the engine alwa,y halted, to get the Mai.° and loving wor that my heart lived on all day: _ "Not the least bit afraid was th baby of all the whistling and clan& of belts, the groaning of the wheel and puffing of the steam. He woul laugh and amine so in ray arms tha I could scarcely hold him, till his fathe would reach down .sometimes and lif him up into' the engineer's cab and kis him for one preciates- minute and the toss him down to me again. When he grew a little older be wa never playing horse and soldiers uk the other little fellows around; it wa always a railroad train that he was driv ing, "All the smoothest strips of my bil lets of kindling wood went to bniia tracks over the kitchen floor hither and thither,orossing and recrossing each other, • it 'Don't move my switch, Mather dear I' he used to cry out to me. "You will wreck my train for sur I" - "So I had to go softly about my work with scarce a piece sometimes to set my foot. And all -the chairs in the house would be ranged for cars, the big rocker, with the tea bell tied to its hack, for the engine; and there he would sit perched up by the hour together, ratl- ine believe attend to the valves and sht‘outing to the fireman. "I shall never forget the first time Ma father took him to ride on the en- gine. " Jack had begged over and over to go, but hie father always bade him wait =tit he was older. So I said: it Don't tease father any more, Jack dear; and likma 'tree little heart egt he was, he haft nbt another word about it for a matter of six months or more. "But that day such a wistful look came into his face, and he pulled him- self up tell and straight, and said quite [daftly, his voice trembling little. "Father, do you think I am owing enough now ?" "-Looking at him,. I sa,w tearal his pretty eyes. I thillic his father saw therretom for he turned to me in a hurry and said - " ' We meet the up train at Langtoe, Mary,. and Will Brown will bring the little chap back all straight, I know. What do you say?' “ What could I say but yea? At sup- per time be wee ba.elt, but he could not eat. His eyes were like stars, and there Was a, hot, red sect on each. cheek, BO that I feared he would be ill. And I thought he would never be done talking, but DOW he ima said scarce a word. "What wet h like, Jackie ?" I asked him. " mother !" he said, “A wasn't like anything !" “ He sat for a moment thinking, than he said, "Unless it was like -you read last Sunday." 'And what was that, datik I"' I in- . quired, for I had forgotten. Don't you know, mother? The wings of the wind P " That teks not his last ride on the engine by many times, for as he grew older, his father would take him often on Saturdays ok• other half -days. He was perfectly trust Y and obedient. I believe he woLd have had his right hand out off sooner than have meddled with anything. • " But Ite kite*, every valve end screw and gauge, and watched every hire - of his father's hand, and teemed the sig- nals all along the line, so that my hus- band said to me more than once: " `I believe in my heart, Mary, that if I was to be struck dead en the engine, Jack-Gen:1d run her through without a break " "He was in school and learning fat, hut out of hours -the was alwaye poring over bdoks and machinery and steam, thoughts far be ond his years! Such an odd pild as he was, with "Sometimes, sitting here by myself; Igo over in my mind. the very strange things he used to Say to me in -those days. I remember, that one evening he had been reading for a lontetime in some book that he had got oat of the public library;: but by-and-by he stopped --and leaned his head on his hand, looking into the coals. Then, all at once. “ 4- Mother,' said be, "isn't it a won- derful thing that God could trust men with it ?"_ "'With what, Sack P ' With the steam -the power • in it, I mean ! It waii,a long time befoie He did. But. when! the. might time came, then He told.' 0, mother, said he, with his eyes shining, 'what must it have been to be James Watt, and to listen to such a secret as that?' a minute he spoke again: • • 'And it's never safe to forget to listen, because we don't know when He 'thighs speak, br what there might he to hear!' , "1 mild net, answer him for a chok- ing in my throat, but I laid down- my knitting and I put my arm around him; and he looked up into my face with earaethilag iie his eyes that I never for- got: f We,tneasi getting on well then.
