Faith speeds the footsteps of duty And halts at the door of a tomb; Thought pierces the source of all beauty And returns unto the doom Of each man child to strive and to wonder, To plan for some positive gain, And only find mysteries under All life, be it pleasure or pain. Lo, in realms of the mind there is treasure For toilers who dwell in content; There is truth that no science can measure, And the fearless are never forspent; There is light when earth shadows are falling, reward for the deeds that are done, Where envy- crowned virtues are calling, faith is thy victory Stevenson in Chicago Record. THE OHIO RIVER. CAR FARES IN GERMANY. Tlie Method of Collection and Inspection Prevents Free Rides, The chances of evading fares on the street cars of German cities are very slight.

When a passenger steps on a car, the conductor immediately asks where he is going and then prepares his ticket, which serves also as a receipt for the fare. The preparationvof a ticket consists only in detaching it from a block and punching it or marking it with a pencil. This process involves much more work than the simple process of ringing up the fares, as conductors do in America, but the task is lightened by the fact that only a certain number of persons are permitted to ride on a car at the same time. The number of sitting and standing places is plainly marked on each car. If a car is designed to carry 30 persons, no more than 30 persons will be permitted on that car at the same time.

When anything in Germany is forbidden, it is settled once for all. In order that every person who rides shall get the prescribed ticket inspectors are employed who spend their time in ascertaining whether the conductors are doing their duty. These inspectors step into the cars and ask the passengers for their tickets. They note the number of the tickets and whether they correspond with the stubs retained by the conductor. The clerk who gives out the blocks of tickets to the conductors notes the number of the uppermost ticket and at the return of each block collects from the conductor who returned it as many fares as there are tickets detached.

The rate of fares varies from cents to 5, according to the distance. Small children are carried for one-half fare, and any one for the sum of $2.50 may secure a ticket which entitles him to ride as much as he wishes for one month. When a car is full, the conductor displays a placard bearing the word Record. The eat Anc For Men to Mnrry. Edward Bok, writing in The Home Journal on Boy For a contends that young man under 25 years of age is in any sense competent to take unto himself a wife.

Before that age he is simply a boy who has absolutely nothing which he can offer to a girl as a safe fundation for life happiness. He is unformed in his character, unsettled in his ideas, absolutely ignorant of the first essentials of what consideration or love for a woman means. He know himself, let alone knowing a woman. He Is full of fancies, and it is his boyish nature to ilit from one fancy to another. is incapable of the affection upon which love is based, because he has not lived long enough to know what the feeling or even the word means.

He is full of theories, each one of which, when he comes to put it into practice, will fail. He Is a boy pure and simple, passing through that trying period through which every boy must pass before he becomes a man. But that period is not the marrying time. For as his opinions of life are to change, so are his fancies of the girl he esteems as the only girl In the world to make him happy. The man of 30 rarely weds the girl whom he fancied when he was A Freak of Lightning performed strange feat near Osceola, during the recent thunderstorm, says the Oil City Derrick.

Three fine cows belonging to a farmer had been turned out to pasture in a field on which the new grass is already quite high, and when the shower came on they gathered together in one corner under some trees. There is a wire fence running close by the spot where they were standing, and a bolt of lightning was attracted to it and ran along the slender wires until the cows were reached, when It glanced off, striking the animals and killing all three instantly.

Many of Pictnresftue of the Pant Are Gone.

The Ohio is no longer the beautiful river it once was. It flowed in majestic curves and sweeps through a limitless paradise. The glory of that river in the barbaric splendor of an autumn day was beyond description. Robed from the Alleglianies to the Mississippi in her gorgeous fabric of maple and sycamore, which everywhere drooped down to the stately flood, shimmering, bending in her course with considerate and majestic dignity, a trip on one of the brightly painted steamboats was the event of a lifetime. There was also a dignity in the steamboats.

They did not pant and rattle like a locomotive, nor were they silent like an ocean steamer. The long, huge steam cylinders, with deliberation and a soft though pervading sound, blew huge clouds of steam into the air. The river steamers were the Monte Carlos of the new world. Every one of them carried its contingent of professional gamblers, each of whom had a in his boot leg. These men, unmolested, traveled the year round between Pittsburg and New Orleans, fleecing the unwary and paying a percentage to the captains.

The Ohio is a noble river yet, though winding through forest denuded hills. The orchards and cornfields are attractive. It promised once to become the Rhine in vineyards, but the grapes were smitten with a rust which destroyed the crops until the attempt was abandoned. It will never be crowned with feudal castles in ruins, but the groves will be replanted, and another century end will see it once more the Interior. NOTED ANAGRAMS.

Bank Washing Day.

In some banks there is a regular washday every month, usually at the beginning, when a clerk may be seen bent over a tub and rubbing real money up and down a washboard. The dirty greenbacks that have been saved up for a month are soaped and rubbed just like handkerchiefs and socks and are run through a wringer before being put out to dry. The paper currency may be handled somewhat roughly, as it does not tear because there is In it a great deal of silk and linen. After the notes have been passed through the wringer they are hung on a line stretched in the bank department. Said one clerk the other day: wash about 100 notes every month, and when done you can hardly tell them from new money.

The washing strengthens as well as cleans the Record. Diamond Cntters and Their Work. Not only is diamond cutting not a specially highly paid occupation, but it is one involving a most humiliating system of espionage to the worker. Each man has to strictly account for the stone receives on going to work in the morning, and the count has to be carefully taken when the unfinished work is handed in at night to be locked up in a safe against the return of the workmen the next day. The possibilities of theft are great, though a dishonest workman knows that an attempt to dispose of an unfinished stone would bring suspicion upon him wherever the attempt was made.

Paper Wheels. Every wheel on jt Pullman car is made of paper. You do not see the paper because it is covered with iron and steel. The body of the wheel is a block of paper about four inchcs thick. Around this is a rim of steel measuring from two inches to three inches.

It is this steel rim, of course, which comes in contact with the rails. The sides are covered with circular iron plate, bolted on. Duly Referred. Mr. Dudley was in today to ask for our hand in marriage.
