Primitive Days of Transportation in
the State.
The marvelous growth of the
IYunslyvania Uailroad into the
world's greatest business corpor
ation, and the gigantic improve
ments now under way involving
an expenditure of $125,000,000,
leads ODe to retrospect and draw
comparison with tho early days
of transportation in tho State.
As far back as 1791 a "Society
for promotiug tho improvement
of roads and inland navigation"
existed in Pennsylvania. The
Lancaster road was the first ex
tensive turnpike completed in the
United States, and prior to about
1513 the general public had little
faith in the practicability of steam
railways. All investigations, au
thorized by the Legislature, had
in view the construction of water
communications by canal.
In 18:28 commissioners were
directed to locate and put under
contract a railroad from Philadel
phia (via of Lancaster) to Colum
l ia, but it was not until 183- that
Hits line was completed aud cars
running upon it. As constructed
the road could only be operated
by horse power. The cars were
shaped somethiug like the old
stage coach, though larger, the
entrance door being at the side,
with the driver occupying an ele
vated seat in front. The horses
were changed every 12 miles, and
the time between Columbia' and
Philadelphia, 82 miles, was about
nine hours. Subsequently atrial
was given the first locomotive for
this railway. Thousands of peo
ple gathered to see the novel ex
periment. Governor Wolfe and
the other State officials were in
Lancaster to participate. Men
were stationed along the track to
keep ventures) me boys out of
danger. But, lo ! the engine
would. not work, and it was not
until IK-JO that successful locomo
tives were regularly substituted,
to the exclusion of horse power.
In 1;-J4 a transportation line be
tween Philadelphia and Pittsburg
was opened to travel and traffic,
but even then "76 miles of the 094
between the terminal points was
dependent on canals.
As another illustration of the
trials of early travel in Pennsylva
nia, it may be recalled that in 1830
a scheduled train leftllarrisburg
daily at 6 a. m., and stopped at
Middletown, nine miles east, for
passengers to get breakfast.
Meanwhile the couductor, with
an oil can that had a four-foot
spout, would have to go over his
train scattering lubrication where
ever necessary. This had to be
done every ten miles, so stops
were frequent.
In a general convention
was held at Uarrisburg to urge
tho construction of a continuous
railroad to littsburg. Delegates
were present from 29 counties of
tho Commonwealth, but it was
not until H4() that tho project as
hutned definite shape. On April
13th of that year an act to incor
porate tho Pennsylvania Kailroad
Company was passed. The capi
tal was, fixed at 7,500,000, with
the privilege of increasing the
same to $10,000,000. From this
time on, progress wus rapid in
railroading, although it is less
than 40 years ago thU passengers
arriving in Philadelphia from up
the State remained in the cars
until mules drew thecoaches from
31st and Market streets to the
terminal shed, where the John
Wanamaker istore since found lo
cation. Now over 500 passenger
trains pass daily in and out of the
handsome new Broad Street Sta
tion. '

She had not beeu married so
long that she had broken herself
of the habit of occasionally fishing
for compliments, and she liked
above all things to hear him say
how he prized her. But this time
ho was taken off guard and spoke
thoughtlessly.
"It was $20 you gave the min
ister who married us, wasn't it!"'
she asked.
"Yes," he answered, without
lookiug up from his paper.
"That's a good deal of money,
George," she suggested and then
waited for him to throw down his
paper and say, "Not for such a
treasure" or something like that,
but he didn't. Instead he replied,
with a depth of feeliug that was
unusual :
"Well, it certainly was too
much."

Real Friend.
"I suffered from dyspepsia and
iudigestion for fifteen years, " say s
W. T. Sturdevantof Merry Oaks.
N'C. "After I had tried mauy doc
tors and medicines to no avail one
of my friends persuaded metotry
Kodol. It gave immediate relief.
I can eat almost anything I want
now and my digestion is good. I
cheerfully recommend Kodol."
Don't try tocure stomach trouble
by dieting. That only further
weakens the system. You need
wholesome, strengthening food.
Kodol enables you to assimilate
what you eat by digesting it with
out the stomach's aid.
Want of Contidence.
More towns die for the want of
coufidouce on the part of the busi
ness men and lack of public spirit,
thau from the rivalry of neighbor
ing towns or adverse surround
ings. When a man in search of
home or business location goes to
a town and finds everything brim
ful of hope aud enthusiam over
the prospects of the hope, and ev
erybody at work to build up the
town, he soon becomes imbued
with the same spirit, and as a re
sult he drives down his stakes
and goes to work with the same
interest. When, however, he goes
to a town and everyone expresses
doubt and apprehension in the fu
ture prosperity of the place, mop
ing about and indulging in com
plaiutsabouttheir imaginary evils
that are likely to befall the town,
when the streets are neglected
and the pessimists are running
things generally, if he is a true
man, he naturally feels it is no
place for him, and at once shakes
the dust from his feet, and pulls
with all possible speed to some
other place.
Interesting to Asthma Sufferers.
Daniel Bante of Otterville.Iowa,
writes, "I have had asthma for
three or four years and have tried
about all the cough and asthma
cures in the market and have re
ceived treatment from physicans
in New York and other cities, but
got very little benefit until I tried
Foley's Honey andTar which gave
rneimmediate relief.and I will nev
er be without itin my house. I sin
cerely recommend it to all." All

A Possible Last Chance.
Phillips Brooks and "Bob" In
gersoll were friendly enough in
their personal relations, and ad,
mired each other immensely.
The latter happened to call once
when in Boston, and was told by
tho preacher's servant that no
body could be admitted that day
that the Reverend Brooks had
not fiv'e minutes to spare from
work. Ingersoll insisted on the
servant taking back his card, how
ever, and was successful in gain
ing admittance.
"Now that I am here, Doctor,"
he said when ho reached Brooks'
sanctum, "let me ask why I am
favored over everybody else, in
cluding several clergymen, who
have called to-day?"
"Well, Colonel," was the quiet
reply, "111 be sure to meet all the
others in heaven, if not before;
whereas, had you gone away, and
either of us had died without
meeting again, I should never
have seen you. So, I thought it
best to take no chances. Phila.'

! not only pleased themselves, but
the people who heard them,

; Miss Lou Kubush 'is firm in tho

Miss Kubush discussed, was full

her sermon. Uere is what she
said about a woman remaiuing au
old maid :
"You would bettor be a typical
old maid, with blue goggles and
corkscrew curls, sipping tea by a
comfortable fireside, with no com
pany but a cat and a poll parrot,
than to be a wife and mother with
u drunken brute for a hearthrug
and crying, starving children at
your knee. It isn't such a terri
ble disgraco to be an old maid, for
an old maid is not such a mon
strosity as she used to be. You
see they are common, quite coin
mon, these days. You would not
run to the window to see one go
by in this day aud age."

Coffee in Ancient Times.
Coffee, the beverago of a large
portiou of the civilized world, con
tains an oil of very active projer
ties. This aromatic shrub, which
was first discovered wild in the
desert fastnesses of Arabia and
Ethiopia, produces ' clusters of
fragrant white flowers growing
from the axils of the leaves. The
beriy is red when ripe, and sep
arating the kernel from the husk
was a laborious and difficult pro
cess when performed after primi
tive methods of tho east. Coffee
acts upon tho nerves, and is an
antidote for mauy poisons. The
herdsmen of Arabia noticed the
exhilarating effect of this plant
upon their Hocks, and the howling
Dervishes drank infusions of the
berries to keep them wakeful in
their wild night ravings, long be
fore it was iu use as a beverage.

The Democracy of Death. ,
Here is a gem from a fuueral
oration delivered at tho grave of
a deceased Congressman, John
N. Burns, by the late former Sen
ator John J. Ingnlls :
"In the democracy of death all
men are at last equal. There is
neither rank nor station nor pre
rogative in the republic of the
grave. At this fatal threshold
the philosopher ceases to be wise
and the songs of the poet are si
lent. Dives relinquishes his mil
lions aud Lazarus his rags. The
poor mau is as rich as the richest,
and the rich man as poor as the
pauper. The creditor loses his
usury aud the debtor is acquitted
of his obligation. There the
proud man surrenders his digni
ties, the politician his honors, tho
worldling his pleasures, the inva
lid needs no physician and the la
borer rests from his unrequited
toil. Here at last is nature's final
equity. The wrongs of time are
redressed, injustice is explained,
the irony of fate is refuted, the
unequal distribution of wealth,
hoii )r, mpacity, -pleasure- and op-portuuii.;,-,
which makes life so
cruel ned inexplicable a tragedy,
cease in the realm of death. The
strongest there has no suprem
acy and the weakest ineeds no de
fense. The mighty captain suc
cumbs to li'e invincible adversary
who disarms aliko the victor and
the vanquished."

Oaths in Many Lands.
"Itow very few persons know the his
tory and nature of tho judicial outh
and affirmation administered in courts
of law," said Lawyer Emanuel M.
Friend. Mr. Friend described ttie oath
as a solemn alllrmation and attestation
or promise made under the immediate
sense of responsibility to God, and tho
invoking of divine vengeance in case
of falsely speaking under tho same
"Oaths are not the creations of mu
nicipal law," said Mr. Friend, "for
they have been in use from earliest
ages, and it lias always been consider
ed as supplying the strongest hold on
the conscience of man as a pledge of
future conduct or guarantee of veracity .
"The substance of an oath has noth
ing to do with Christianity, and is used
in all countries ; though forms differ,
tho substance is the same, which is thut
the Deity is called upon to witness tho
truth of what is said, as, for instance,
a .few is sworn on the Pentateuch or
Old Testament, with his hut on, clos
ing his oath with, 'So help mo .Tehova':
and the Mohammedan on tho Koran; a
Gentoo by touching with his hand the
foot of a Bruhmin or priest of his re
ligion; a Urahim by touching tho hand
of another such priest ; a Chinaman,
by breaking a china saucer.
"The swearing of a Chinaman is
done thus : On getting into tho witness
box he kneols down, and a china sau
cer being placed in his hands he strikes
it ugsinst the brass rail in front of the
box und breaks it. Tho outh transla
ted into English is : 'You shall tell the
truth, thiwhole truth." Then the sau
cer is cracked und the olllcer adminis
tering tho outh continues : 'If you do
not tell 'the truth', your soul will be
cracked like the saucer.'
"Chinese are also sworn by what is
known as the Joss st ick burning which
Is a ceremony of burning one of the
sticks used by their Joss in !li pres
ence of tho Joss, which siguilies thai
their idol is called upon to witness the
veracity of wliut they speak.
"Allirmution consists of tho raising
of the right hand above tho head, ami.
instead of sweuring to the truth, the
witness aliirms. In olden times theft
was punished by the burning of the
palm of the right hand of the culprit,
and when the hand was raised, if the
scar caused by the burning wus there
the testimony of the witness was not
taken. It, is also said that the index
and second linger of tho thief were am
putated, and that when, being called
upon as a witness and tho right hand
was raised for the purpose of affirm
ance if ono or both of these lingers
were missing, his testimony could not
be taken.
"The devout Hebrew, in affirming,
raises the right hand and extends the
thumb, Index and second lingers, which
forms the letter Scheen, meaning the
first letter of the word Schaeie or God.
"The devout Christian affirms iu the
same manner, and it is said that tho
three lingers represent the Trinity.
The forms of oaths vary ucoording to
where and for the purpose used, and
are regulated principally by usage, and
affirmations are permitted for tho rea
son that, in riiany instances, persons,
by reason of religious conviction, are
prevented from taking the oath, but.as
far as legal affect is concerned, the af
firmation answers all tho purposes of
an oath, and when false testimony Is
given where one has affirmed, the legal
crime of perjury exists just the sumo
as though an oath was taken." New
York Journal.

An enemy which is dreaded more than
the 17-year locust is the Canada thlstlo
which does more injury every year to
farms in this country than any oilier
cause to which greater attention is giv

It sooner or later takes full possession
of the land, and unless erudicuted tho
entire farm becomes worthless. The
heavier seeds, which uro curried by
the winds, will germinate, but its pro

potatoes. If he will then give the po
tato crop frequent cultivation ho will
destroy many of the thistles and the
potatoes will pay for the labor. It
may not be possible to subdue the
thistles the first year, but if the work
is well done the thistles may be com
pletely destroyed the second year,when
the ground should be plowed in the
spring and a crop of early cabbages
grown, removing the cabbage crop and
broadcasting tho land, after plowiug
and harrowing, with Hungarian grass
seed. As tho Hungarian grass grows
rapidly and may be mowed once a
month, it gives the thistles but little
chance, while tho previous cultivation
of the cabbage crop will have greatly
reduced the thistles in number. The
point is to keep the thistles cut down
from July to frost, after which they
will be under control.
