for the shirts the agent looks over the
sewing machine in the bouse, and, rinding

Remarkable If True
"A man killed on the tailroad never dies
with his boots on," remarked a Reading
railroad employe, at Wayne Junction the
other morning. "In my experience of over
2o years I have seen perhaps over a hun
dred cases where people have been struck
and killed by engines, and in every in
stance, when the body was picked up was
found to be minus shoes. Even men wear
ing heavy top boots are not exempt from
tbe invariable rule. Any old engineer will
tell you the same thing. It is a mystery
which nobody seems able to solve, and is
as inexplicable as that other strange phe
nomenon of the drowned man, who is al-
wavs on top of tbe water face downward.
while a woman floats face upward."
