THE TIME TAELE.
Its Part In the Daily Life of the Lo­
comotive Engineer.
The principal anxieties of an ex­
press driver have to do with keeping
time. His employment depends
upon his doing so. He is there in
the cab of an express engine just, in
fact, because lie knows better than
other men how to get the best re­
sults from a splendid piece of ma­
th inery. And they are demanded
of him. No railway company in
competition with another can af­
ford to be lax about the running of
its trains, and an express driver
who means to keep his place has to
remember this.
If the train is late from any fauli;
of his he must expect to be repri­
manded. If it is late at all frequent­
ly he may be either fined or in the
end reduced. The checks upon him
are strict. In every signal box he
passes the time of his passing is re­
corded. lie cheeks the record with
his o*vn time sheet, which is check­
ed by the guard of his train in turn.
He need not fear injustice, true.
So many independent records estab­
lish the facts beyond mistakq or
cavil and enable his superintendent
to say at once whether the fault
lies between him and the engine or
elsewhere. But time is one of his
constant preoccupations.
He cannot forget it, as he may
forget his perils. It is evidently not
a matter to which a driver can be­
come indifferent in the least, anc
there are times when it is oppress­
ive. Engines differ, like pianos
from the same famous workshop
or watches made by machinery.
They differ so notoriously that
there is a railway saying, “A good
engine makes a good driver.”
Among modern express engines
there is probably not a disappoint­
ing one in twenty. But every en­
gine has her idiosyncrasies. She
may respond to firing less readily
than another or need more oiling
or be oftener docked for small re-
pairs. For better or worse the
driver is married to her until he
can show sufficient cause for a di-
voree. The time table iB their

class of life. There are long dis­
cussions with all the members of
the two families. The cure, the
notary, the patron (if the young
man is a workman), are all consult­
ed, and there are as many negotia­
tions and agreements in the most
humble families as in the grand
monde of the Faubourg St. Ger­
main. Almost all French parents
give a dot of some kind to their chil­
dren, and whatever the sum is, ei­
ther 500 fran s or 2,000 francs, it is
always scrupulously paid over to the
notary.
The wedding day is a long one.
After the religious ceremony in the
ehurch all the wedding party—
members of the two families and a
certain number of friends—adjourn
to the hotel of the little town for a
breakfast, which is long and most
abundant. Then comes the crown­
ing glory of the day—a country
walk along the dusty highroad to
some wood or meadow, where they
can spend (he whole afternoon. "
It is pretty to see the little pro­
cession trudging along, the bride in
all, her wedding garments, white
•Iress, white shoes, wreath and veil;
the groom in a dress coat, top hat,
white cravat and waistcoat, with a
white ribbon bow on his sleeve.
Almost all the girls and young wo­
men are dressed in white or light
colors; the mothers and grandmoth­
ers (the whol? family turns out) in
black, with dowers in their bon­
nets.
There is usually a fiddler walking
ahead making most remarkable
sounds on Kia old cracked instru­
ment, and th« younger members of
the party take an occasional gallop
along the rou-.i. They are generally
very gay. There •• much laughing
and from time t > time a burit of
song. It is a1 wain a mystery- to me
how the br'.d* keeps her di" s* and
petticoat so de in, but. she does,
with that extraordinary knack all
Frenchwomen seem to have of hold-
ing up their skirts.
They passe l often under the wall
of the chateau, for a favorite rest­
ing place ww in pur woods. At the
entrance of the allee verte, where it,
widens out a little, the moss makes
a beautiful *dt carpet, and the big
trees give pci feet shade. We heard
sounds of merriment one day when
we were passing, and we stopped to
