Railways have had their troubles during these amazing years of world war and continental congestion; so. consequently, have passengers. On n rickety-rackety, half-forgotten little branch line to nowhere In particular, not long aRo, a long, lank, lazy Yan kee station master, with an IJti'le .Sam goatee, mentioned those mighty and historic obstacles In excuse for the lateness of a certain two-car train, for which an Impatient salesman of agricultural implements was waiting. Hut although be offered an excuse, he did not enjoy doing so, and con cluded his remarks by announcing re sentfully: "She'll be in before long, and be fore long oughter be soon enough for reasonable folks. Kf she's in 'at' now adays she'd oughter he cheered, and no feller with a grain of common sense nor patience has any call to growl cf she's 'thereabouts.'" In the amiable South a world war Is not necessary to evoke an even greater superiority to petty unecrta'n tles of time. The colored man In charge of a southern wailing room. In a place by no menus a village, was heard explaining the local cleiir'e cur connections with (he nearest city.

Even the young ones were two thousand or tb-ee thousand years old, and many of these grew from the visible ruins of others, which may have been saplings seven thousand years ago. Sometimes in cathedrals one feels the awe and the majesty of columns. These columns were more impressive than anything of stone; these columns were alive. They were more like gods than anything I have ever seen. They seemed to be think ing. One felt that presently thpy would march to wipe out everything mean or base or petty here on earth. The stars shone about their heads like chaplets." MCZ LIKE GCD3 TIM THEE Impressive Tribute Paid by Fnglish Poet to the fl'.int Redwoods of California. John MascflcM, the English p"t. contributed the following Impression of the giant trees of California to I In Keveille, a new paper devoted to dis abled sailors and soldiers; "They are not like trees; they are like spirits. The glens In which thev grow tire not like places; thev are like haunts of Kisses and Beards. It Is so easy to understand what the Americans say. because they talk so loud It Is not the same loudness as of the French, and one day 1 have laughed to bear in a 'bus how girls of the Y. M. C. A. have talked. There was one who was not at all pretty, ex cept to be young, who has regarded a French gentleman who wore bis heard long. "Imk," she said, "what n hor rible beard. Imagine to be kissed by any one like that. Then they have both laughed. The other one has said then: "I sup pose his grandfather wore his beard long, so be does the same," and the first one has r-plled: "Yes, it is al ways like flint. What was good enough for your grandfather in France is good enough for you." I was not angry t.t h"ar them spnl; so, because, you know, they were vry Ignorant. For me, I do not think Hint they have known very much the emo tion of to lie kissed, or they would have understood thai if Is not whether or not one has n beard thai makes the difference.
