Ever since the introduction of Railroads, 
tlie war lias been on between the manage¬ 
ment and adjoining land owners. Clieap 
fences, siaughtered stock,extravagant claims, 
costly suits and the law’s delay has been the 
“rotation.” All this is now changed,»the 
farmers cry, “(live us the‘Page’and all will 
be forgiven.” The Railroad Companies reply 
“the ‘Page’ it shall be,” and the Spiral Springs 
extt'nd their Coils with “bless you my child¬ 
ren.”

CiiAKbOTTE : “ Oh, how slippery these 
rocks are. Take a (food hold of my arm, 
John, and if I slip hold on like grim 
death ; but if you slip, for goodness’ sake 
let go.”— Pearson's Weekly. 
Mrs. Newwife : “I want a pound and 
a half of beef.” Butcher: “Yes’m, any¬ 
thing else?” Mrs. Newwife: “Yes, I 
want about half a pound of ‘a la mode’ 
to go with it.”— Phila. Record. 
I’d like to know what ails these spec¬ 
tacles !” grumbled Mr. Skinnphlint; 
“ I’ve always taken the very best care of 
them, but they’ve begun to fail me. I 
can’t see through them well any more.” 
“ Why don’t you take them back to the 
man you bought tpem of ? ” asked Mrs. 
Skinnphlint. “ I would if I could,” he 
rejoined, savagely-; “but he died 14 
years ago.”— Chicaqo Tribune. 
A bKTTER to the Secretary of the Hor¬ 
ticultural Society: “Sir—I partickly 
wish the Satiety to be called to consider 
the Case what follows, as I think it 
mite be maid Transaxtionable in the 
next Reports. My Wif had a Tomb Cat 
that dyd. Being a torture Shell and a 
Orate favirit, we had Him berried in the 
Guardian, and for tho sake of inrichment 
of the Mould I had the earks deposited 
under the roots of a Gosberry Bush. 
(The Frute being up till then of the 
smooth kind.) But the next Seson’s 
Frute, after the Cat was berried, the 
Gosberris was al hairy—and more Re¬ 
markable, the Catpilers of the same Bush 
was All of the same hairy Discription. 
I am, sir, your humble servant, Thomas 
Frost.” —Credit Lost.

is sure to attain great popularity 
as the best all around pedal that 
will be seen this season. 
Combining the lightness of the 
rat trap racing jiedal with the ease 
and comfort of a rubber pad, it 
preserves the varied and excellent 
qualities of our 1893 pattern, and 
reduces its weiglit more than one 
half. It is undoubtedly the light¬ 
est, neatest, and handsomest pedal 
ever attached to a bicycle.
