He grumbled out something, hut as he was always grumbling I didn't pay inueb attention to him and we were soon Aim ing along.

The engine wns soon surrounded by the train hands firing questions at me as if I u on the witness stand. "'Murphy, my fireman, fell off back there, that's why I stopped,' I says for I didu't want to tell what I had seen and let them have the holler on me.

The triala and troubles and torments and tribulations of this life are but the dust and cinders flung into our eyes, as we go hurrying on in Time'c rushing car to the end of ihe route oo tho river of death. And when we reach the teroii nus, and make, the change, oh what I blessed transition it will be. .No more dust, no more heat, no more fatigue, no mure cinders, no more choking siuoke no more travel-staio lor the trip will be upon the v rdue-ballasted road of ihe flower ladcu banks of the sparkling Kiver of Life which flows by the Great White 1 home ol Uod. 1 he togs aud vapors of sorrows and gloom which beset us here below will be changed up there into the Bhinging spray and glitumeiiog mist of joy and brightness of the God-fed fountains of blissful iiuuioitality, while all the clanging notes of jjrring discord which now distract and torment us here so sorely, will be drowned in tho dulcet tides of the everlasting streams of those celestial harmonics whose swellings and bounding waves of melody, will rise and strike against the very dome of Heaven, and make it one eternal sounding board of rapturous praise and song. Cheer up, oh weary fellow travelers to Eternity, and take new hope, ye fainting hearts. The tiresome journey will roon be ended, the blensed change will soon be made, and our visions, refreshed aud strengthened, will rest upon the brilliant scenes of everlasting splendor, which live upon those daia'iog corruscationa of sparkling gleamings that come Sashing io unending ripples of quenchless ra diance from off the Throne of Light. Yes, our senses too will oaleh the per fume of sweet flowers, and our ears will drink in the melody of purer songs. The streams will have a crystal current, and their brilliant ripples will rival in radiance the shower of sunbeams, foi there will be no dregs at the bottom, no driftwood of earthly passion upon its stainless boaoui. And tbo trees too will have a licber, more luxuriant foliage for they will bask io the perpetual sunlight of God's luuii nous presence and be robed io brightest Verdure forever. Oh what doled able and rapturous scenes of beauty will greet our visions then as we go rolling io sweet and intoxication enchantment over tit blissful va.lt; oJ blest Elysium.
