Once on a time I ltud tlic sltialIot

At length 1 tose from meditating there,
nnd sought the tnl!n station once
asaln. I had escaped the greatest din
ger, and nothing voulcl haim me now
I hailed a taM to eoiivej me to m
uncles house, my shahhy trunk was
piled on It, and off We started
snw scenes along the way,
I noticed that the driver was a negio,
nnd he wore no chauffeur's uniform. I
missed the smart appearance of the Lon
don taxis, and the vase of tloweis within
This stranse daik chnurfcur ilnue o
fast, and oh1 I noticed in alarm that
we wo:e curterln,; on the wrong sld- of
the strooti For, as we drove toward
tho west, on that wldi thoroughfare
called Jl.irket street, we kept upon tht
right-hand sldp, and not the left!
"Wo ceitainly will have an accident
quite soon," said I, and sousht the
speaking tube.
1 could not ilnd it, and we still swung
on at lightning speed, still on thn right
hand side. This was too much. 1 could not
stand It any longer, and hung far out
of the window.
"Please stop!" I cried to the chauffeur.
"You will havo an accident if you don't
keep to tho proper side of the road.
Plcaso cross oxer to the left at once."
The dusky drner duly stopped, and
shook his puzzled head. "I drive all
rUht." said he In a fcoft, musical voice
a voice that seemed to hold the liquid
melancholy of old slave days. "Wo
ir.ua' keep to the right side. It Is the
rule here."
I sank back In my seat amazed. Hero
then the traffic law-H must be the opposite
of ours in England' Yet I could not
shake off the vague surmise that we
would shortly collide with som'thlng.
The policemen looked quite different
from ours, they wore no helmets, but a
peaked cap of the type our postmen
wear In England, and many of them rode
on hornsback.
I thought the postmen did look Ktranse
mall carrier!-, I think, tho name Is here.
They wore Ftraw hats with wide up-Aitrv-ing
brims, dove-colored, and with suits
of bluish gray.
We passed great shops in Market street
I think they're called "department
stores" and great strpot cars clanged
everywhere. They hud no upper deck,
these, cars, but all must crowd inside. No
one at home slt Inside a car In summer
time, unless It rnlns They always climb
upon tho roof, to pet the breezes and 11
view. I thought it must be dreadful, that
warm July evening, insido those big trol
ley cars! Although they wore so huge
and long, I noticed thy could turn
around a sharper cornor than cars of
half their size In England ever could!
Wo turned sharply north from Market
Ftreet and .swung ulong In quieter streets
The taxi bumped and bounced upon its
way. for the road seemed strangely rough
nnd uneven. Wo rattled right across a
railroad crossing, too; I saw tho tall-end
of a great goods train Just passed. It
teemed so odd to see those railway lines
crossing a tiaine-Iaden strwt "I hope
J get to Uncle's safe!" thought I.
It was now just oftei T o'elucb, and
darkness seemed to fall so suddenly. It
seemed to me that In a few short min
utes after da. light it Wds daik' At homl
wo have a long, long twilight, and on
July evenings daylight lingers on til! 10
o'clock.
I saw the oddest thing' on that long
taxi rldF-rthey seemed o strange at first
to me, an Kngiish alii, but nnw l'v
grown accustomed to them oil We
pasted street after strpet of red-brick
houses, with five or six steps leading
down to the pavement Smartly gowned,
whito c! td girls fcat nut on these teps
with nell-drebsed youths, whole families
fat thero and faced publicity. They even
went further, for I saw many little en
campments right out upon the pave
inent's edge. The fath, 1 would sit upon
0. campstooi there, reading the evening
paper nji.l peacefully smoking, not the
jdpo of peace, nut one big black cigar
while the mother sat and hutted with
her friends who might pass by upon the
ttieet
I thought the crowds of little thil.
men playing in the htteets Here just the
dearest. m.rrlt little things. I liked
the curious style vshtch their hair
was cropped, all round the baik, right
close up to their little ears
A DREARV DIUEAIJIA
At length the taxi drew up at my
uncle's house, after we had driven )WsH
n trifle oyer four miles. "Tao dollars,
please." said the driver, as he tarried
my trunk up to the door. Two dollars!
"Why, th3t toxl ride at home would have
cost but 10 cents! J oatd him while
lie rang the doorbell.
Jt was a two-storied, red brick house in
a long line of others, with five steps
leading clown to the pavement
The driver rang and rang, and rang

wait no longer, so mounted hia cur and
