The engineer «beyed, but he was obliged-to alt on the edge of the chair, In order to let his toes touch the floor. \liou remember I told you, Pan, that the directors proposed to take son* notice of that episode last month]\ \I'd rather you hadn't done any- thing about it, sir. It's all* past and gum.', and It ain't worth bringing up again.. I didn't do anything but ray duty. Besides, you know, my man—\ > Two tears trickled down his cheeks, \We don't regard It a matter of duty. Dnn, for you ^o tackle cyclones'in the tipt-n prairie, nor do we reward men for discharging their duty,. We pay thorn for that. What we want to re ward you for i s bravery and judgment,\ \'he engineer mumbled something, but the superintendent continued: \At the last meeting of the directors it was voted to present you with ch*ck for a thousand dollars; and. now F>e .sent for you to tell you that I'm going to give \you the new Mogul, No. U'lKt.\ The gloves and cap dropped to the flm.r; the, dingy hands were clasped over the watering eyes, and the srual jt'iyMque shook with sobs. \I'll-take No. 1200, air, and thank you for her with all my heart, and treat her as. well as I know how; but the check—I can't take that! My fire man, Joe Colby, lost his life in that affair and left a wife and four chil- dren. They must have the cheek, sir Yuu see, Joe was trying to buy a little home. He'd Just gone into the build ins association, and they'd advanced him a thousand dollars, and he'd only moved Into his cottage a week before Won't you fix that check, sir, so 1 can g« the money and take it over to Mrs ddliy before I go out on my run? And mayn't I tell her the directors voted It to her Joe?\ As he said this he arose and stopped forward, a look of Intense in his swollen eyes—a beseeching ex- prnssion—•which brought a smile of acquiescence to the face of the super- intendent, who was watching him closely. ' \Yes Dan. Put your name on the back of this.\ The old man affixed his endorsement to the back of the check while the superintendent^touehed a bell. \Take this over to the treasurer's office,\ he said to,the clerk who re- sponded, \and bring me the bills. Sit down, Dan, for a few minutes, and I'll have lt for you. You never detailed the affair to me,\ he added for my benefit. \Well It happened this way,\ began the engineer, crossing one short leg «ver the other and eatchhtg a heel in the rung of the chair: \We got away from Page's Junction on tune, hauling « baggage car, two coaches, a diner, and two parlors. It was exactly 3:10 when I got the word and pulled her out in the regular way for the straight run <>f eighteen miles to Gage's. It was as '•right and clear an afternoon as I ever- siiw. The irons stretched out like two pencil lines across a sheet of paper, coming together at the horizon and then dwindling down to nothing. You've noticed that stretch of track a thousand times, sir? We'd taken Menty of water at Ballou'S)' and had <T >al enough;, everything wae well oiled, no Jar, no wind to speak of, no •lust of any consequence. Joe and I'd l 'een joking while we hung up at I'nse's for the down local, and we were in jolly good humor. %he train pulled *teadllv, and it wasn't too hot nor too «'ld. I got No. 44 up'to her gauge and settled back on. my seat for the prettiest spin we have. In fact I make it -a rule to 'show off' a little n hen I get on that race track, as we '^ll It, and it was one of those tunes, you know, when a fellow kind o' feels ilfi if things, wasfrunning too all-flred \month to last/Now, I couldn't tell - Vf) u for my liM Just where we were when I noticed what* seemed like o •lurry of dust away ahead, about ten \I'les.

I didn't k enough of It to mention It to r -> -4»h Or * waliy suspected It was one 0 tflBn soldier troops going to or from fprt.

In fact, I didn't have tltae to think, for it was headed straight Jor us. \We've an understanding In our crew that when there's anything going to happen to the train, and I see it, I give five short, quick blows on the whistle. Quick as lightning I made up ray mind to tuekle that cyclone! I'd put the train's strength against its strength I If I eunw to a standstill I knew I'd be Just us bad off as if I crowded her thr.:msh it. So I yelled to Joe for emil and for him to close the cab windows; then I blew five .slmrt whistles, threw the lever away forward and grabbed the throttle and pulled her ont,-n. By this time I could h»ar the roar coQiibg nearer and near- er, like continual thunder, it \was so terrific I cuuldti't hrar the noise of the train.

Some scientific men have told me sine© that what I did saved the; lives of all my passengers. Scientific reasons don't cut much Ice with me, though. It just came to me that I'd got to light that cyclone, and I culled on old 44 to fight It and she did; and now she's over In the roundhouse, her days of usefulness over!\ The clerk entered with the money. \I'm going to take this right away to Joe's widow!\ exclaimed the little old man, stowing the bills hi \the breast pocket of his jumper. \Then I'll go around and fire up the Mogul\ and get her ready for my run. Thank you, Mr. Superintendent,\ he added, a tremor in his voice, as he turned to depart, \I hope none o' the boys'U feel hurt be- cause Ij»s preferred to them.\ ••That's all right, Dan. You're the man to have her, and all the boys'U be ;lad you've got her.\ \Thank you, sir. Won't you and 'our friend come down and see me pull out? I leave -at 12:1O, you know.\ \Yes we'll come.\ The old man smiled and waved his hand .as he hurried away. We went down into the train house at noon. The huge locomotlv.e was al- ready hooked to the train of parlors, irieht, glistening, a monstrous hulk ,f panting power; old Dan bustling ibout In a clean suit of Jeans rub- bing, oiling, chatting UkB^oy with a new tqy.

The con- ductor waved his hand and. a brake- man pulling the starting whistle, the bell clanged. Old Dan flung the lever forward, gave a tug at theUhrottle. and the massive j*>gul began her maiden trip. / •'Watch, now!\ said the superin- •endW, \how popular old Dan Is.

Curry of Rabbit,—Cut up the r*b< bit and cook hi hot fat, seasoning well when the meat is well-seared over. Add two medium-steed onions chopped, and two teadpoonfals of curry powder; cook fifteen minutes. Moisten with boiling water. Cover the pan and conk twenty-five min- ute*. Serve with a dish of hot rice. PUaff of Rabbit—Prepare the rab- bit and cut It into serving-steed pieces. Into a wmeepan place four tnblwpoonfuls of lard or butter, add the rabbit and when slightly brown, %en?on with «ait and pepper and a Medium-sized onion finely chopped. Cook ten minutes, then add six table- spoonfuls of clear consomme. Add one and one^half pints of boiling wa- ter and reduce by boiling. Cover the pan and cook over a slow fire for twenty minutes.

French naturalist, says he saw a man who was only sixteen Inches in height. What is the difference between these rery little people, who never grow >eyond the «lxe of childhood, and these giants, who are like the monsters of fable! It.isn't age. It isn't the food they eat, for they have all had much the same diet a* ordinary people. It Isn't their surroundings, which are much the same. It isn't heredity, that- scapegoat on which we are fond of unloading all our shortcomings. The parents of both pygtulei and gianta are usually ordinary-sized persons. What Is the difference? Nobody knows. Yet lt must he some difference In the machinery or working of their bodies. Modern scientific study baa shown that each part of our wonderfully com£lexj^le#,-no-«att«-how small, has a definite work to do, aud that we have normal development and health only as each part does its work. If any of the numerous jlandi Jp_ our body either overwork or underwork, lt affma the entire, body. Some ot these glands we kno-v a good -deaX about We know that if the gland or its secretions are less than they should be, the body does not grow ;o natural proportions. Mo»t of the dwarfs one sees on the street* are persons Jn whom, In child- hood, the thyroid gland was deficient Wonderful changes have been pro- duced In these \creilns as they are called, by feeding them the thyroid glands of ahetp or c<ilw». Giantism is probably due, in some cases, to dis- ase of the pituitary body, a gland at the base of the brain. But how to pre- vent it or to cure It no one knows. GROWING PLANTS BY ELECTRICITY T HE electrical experts of the West- inghouw Manufacturing company have worked out a plan by which rults, vegetables and flowers can be grown and developed at will, regard- less of the season. This is done by a system of rteetrlc lights which furnish an artificial substitute for sunlight. Thhj light can be turned on, dny or night, all the year round and the plants can be kept growing on rainy or cloudy days, In winter as well as In spring or Rummer. Old man Fessler had the same idea many years ago, although he didn't know anything about electricity. In one of his quaint poems, James Whit- comb Riley told of old \Bee\ Fewler down hi Posey county, Indiana. Fess- ier was not only a great authority, on bees, but he was also a thrifty soul. He hated to see his bees loaf all win- ter, so he boxed his hives and took them down to Florida In the fall. When he turned the bees loose, they thought they had slipped up on their calendar and that it was another spring. So they went to work as hard as they could, making honey. In the sprin*, Fessler took them back to Indiana, where they worked al\ summer, and in the fall, he shipped them down to Florida again. In this way he got twelve months' work out of them, in- stead of six. But afterwbllj the bees got tired of perpetual work. They got confused in their calculations. Klley says they said 'seems like this summer never v\'i end.\ So they went on a strike and refused to work at all. Evidently, the growers of vegetables by artificial sunlight are wiser than Fessler. They pla'n to let their plants sleep for an hour after sundown and then turn the lights on for five hours, during which time the plants work on the night shift' Then they turn the lights off and let the plants sleep until sunrise. If this plan Is successful, the food question win be solved for ail parts of the world where electric light can be secured. Whether these electrically grown fruits and vegetables will have the flavor and nourishing qualities of those grown bV sunlight remains to be seen* We knoV that sunlight is nec- essary for P»e growth of all living things. Bjat there may be qualities In the, light frojn the sun that cannot be .produced SirtitlelaUy. This world has needed and used light from the sun far millions of ye«r« and there may be something hi the sunlight that neither the eiecirMun nor the chemist has yet Larry Was Delight***. It's—well—having a purpose for some thing Ts to havt a use for It! •There r \I did pretty well for • monkey, ttiV \You did, indeed,\ said Snookums, \Now what Is your purpose for the motorcar)\ he added. Larry warn a great pet la the mas- key house. The keeper loved Mm, The boyi and girl* who came to the «K> loved him and he had many friends among the grown-up*. He was s o tame, so friendly, s» pleasant He would do tricks, shake hand* and whistle when people were pleased with him and showed they wanted te> be really friendly. A little boy bad broutht Larry • present of a small wooden make-be- lleve motorcar. It had the name of « motorcar paint- ed on either aide. Larry was delighted when he saw I t He had been gailng at it ever since, holding it sideways, twisting lt around hi every possible way, and then drag- ging it after him. For It wasn't the kind of m motor* car that went by machinery. Nor would there have been room for the monkey riders iaslde. Larry's motorcar had to be pulled. But no mutter. He was very proud of It \I think I will fill lt with aawdust and take It tip to the factory,\ said Larry. \Where ana what ts the factoryT* asked Snookums. \Oh Snookums, oh,. Snookums,\ said Larry, \where is your Imarlna- tiont \Where are your make-believe IdeasT The factory is a make-believe fac- tory. \I am going to pretend that I sun supplying it .with sawdust—because we have sawdust In our home.\ So Larry filled the little wooden make-believe motorcar with sawdust, dragged it to the make-believe factory at the other end of his house, and hail a beautiful time pretending he was) the busiest creature hi the whole world.
