A. & M. Paa«n*er Depot,a* Vlawad by the Chronic Lounger—An Interesting Study of Human Nature. ^^lOfelEY. To a student of human nature the train-time at a city passenger depot pre sents a varied and Interesting study. For perhaps thirty minutes before the arrl ring-time the crowd begins to col lect. Hacks roll up and stand in line, the drivers chaffing each other and the hotel porters. The lumbering express wagon backs into its usual place, the hones’ heads hanging in patience until their drowsy master shall start back to the office with bis heavy freight of per ishable merchandise. The shifting en gine moves to a sidetrack until the way shall again be clear for Its monotonous work, and stands hissing, with the en gineer in his cab snatching a little rest from his arduous labor. An elegant pri vate carriage drives up, and the coach man helps to alight the anxious mother who ii sending her lovely young daugh ter from her for the first time to enter the distant college. The drummer, with his overcoat, hand-satchel and umbrella, atrolls up and down the platform, calcu lating the probable size of his trip’s expense account and speculating upon the chances of the bouse honoring eo soon another draft upon it, for he must stop over Sunday to see that dear little girl who so fondly expects him, even if it is 100 miles out of his way. An old-fashioned country carriage is turned up to the platform and a whole family get out and gaze around with troubled, bewildered eyes, the mother hastily pulling aside the little boy who is almost struck by the two train hands carrying between them the immense cake of ice which is to supply the approaching train. The farmer lingers to give his hired man some final instructions re garding management of things in his ab sence, thon gathering together his fright ened flock pilots them into the waiting room. Two young girls in all tho radiance of perfectly fitting fall costumes stand at one end of tho platform chatting gaily with three or four young bloods who came with them to meet the sweot girl friend who is to arrive on this train. “RailroadF’ Tho ory is from tho pow erful lungs of tho hotel porter. Every thing is hurry and bustle. The express- man wakes up, the farmer and bis family rush from the waiting room in frantio oxoitomont, while tho young school girl’s golden head Is upon her mother’s shoulder and tears are in the loving parent’s eyes os she whispers tender, soothing words to her darling child. The drummer pauses in his walk and gazes upon tbs mother and daughter, bis eyeB lose their expression of impa tient disgust, and as he turns away they take on a gleam of tender, reverential sympathy, their beautiful grief is too sacred for Intrusion. Hardened man of the world as he is, deep down in the wells of memory he sees a loving moth er’s fsce, and hears her tearful tender voice as her eon first left her, There Is a rumble of approaohlng wheels, the sound of the locomotive whistle breaks upon the ear. The girls on the end of the platform dance up and down in excited glee, the hotel porters and hackmen begin a maddening babble vociferous shouting, the Incoming engine rushes past and with the loud hissing of the air brakes the train it at a standstill The brakeman pnts the portable steps at the exit of the coaeh and the smartly uniformed conductor holds up’ hit hand to help the radiant girl who le just com ing ont, but the does not see him; with a chorus of delighted exclamations and a simultaneous flutter from two points there only appear* to the observer a mass of dainty fabric intermingled In ecstatic embrace from whieh Issue three silvery voices in frantio dialogue. The sobbing mother clasps to her heart for a last time the weeping girl, and, pulling her veil over her tear-stained face, turns sadly to her carriage. The farmer and his family have long ago ruihed Into the coach, and every one of them now have their heads far out of tbs open windows. The bell rings and the train begins to move slowly; tbs drummer steps upon the rear platform and, as It passes the three girls, he bestows upon them a cheerful wink, then turns and disappears through the door. The hacks are rolling back with their passengers. Tbs girls leave the depot three abreast—the new arrival In the middle, to the utter discomfiture of their attendant swains. All has grown still about the station save for the ticking of the telegraph instrument* In the dis patcher’s office. The shifting engine move* out from the sidetrack and re turnee its monotonous work. CARPETS! REGS! MATTINGS!

True croup never appears without a warning. The first symptom is hoarseness; then the child appears to have taken cold or a cold may have accompanied the hoarse ness from the start, After that a pecu liar rough cougli is developed, which is followed by the croup. The time to act .is when the child first becomes hoarse; a few doses of Chamberlain's Cougli Rem edy will prevent the attack.
