A Neat Swindie.

A notion peddler named Wildman has
frequently called on John Logue, Of
Clarion county, recently. A few nights
since he claimed to have dreamed that
$4,000 in silver were hid in tree in the
neighborhood. He induced Mr.. Logue
to accompany him to the place and of
fered him half the money if found pro-
vided he would assist in cutting down
the tree. When it fell supposed coin to
the amount of $4,000 was discovered
The peddler said he did not know what
to do with so much silver and inquired
where he would likely get greenbacks
for the money. Mr.. Logue accommo-
dated him. The peddler went off and
has not since been heard from. On en-
deavoring to pass some of the money it
was found to be counterfeit of the poorest
kind. Mr.. Logue is $1,000 out, and the
story ends. 1t was clever job of gang
of counterfeiters which probably infest
that county.

WHY Printers Die Young.

A writer fully accounts for the rea-
son why printers die young, and why
they are continually tramping from
place to place in search of peace and
quietude. He says that working for
forty editors and scores of authors,
every one of whom is as sensitive as a
hornet, no wonder printers die young,
and only pachydermatous, mulish speci-
mems get their share of life. The
writer wishes he could offer himself as
an awful example of the perils which
environ the man who NEEDLES with
cold-type A thoroughly-trained
printer should have stepmother, and
then stepfather, and then should have
been bound out to a tanner, and then
married a scolding wife, and lived in a
smoky house, and have had a family of
babies afflicted with the collie. He
should have added to all this discipline
a thorough knowledge of science, law,
theology, languages, history and biogra-
ply. If: in addition, he has vicious
looking countenance and an amiable
disposition, he may stand some chance
with these authors and editors; but
probabilities are, after all, that they
will worry him to death. This picture
will have . veay depressing effect upon
ambitious boys who are anxious to learn
the " art preservative of all arts" The
picture, however, is tolerably correct

Sound Passing Through Solid Rock.
Virginia City (Neb.) Enterpri


1t now appears from an official state
ment made by Mr.. Sutro last Saturday,
that the header of the Sutro tunnel was
at that time 1893 feet distant from
the point where it will strike the Savage
incline The statement is undoubtedly
correct, yet the workmen in the Savage,
at the 1900 level, are able to hear the
steam drills used in the tunnel header
SO distinctly that all have heretofore be-
lieved the face of the tunnel to be not
farther away than 800 feet. 1t was
thought impossible that the drills could
be heard a greater distance through
solid rock. At the Combination shaft
they now say that they were able
to hear the blasts fired in the header of
the Sutro tunnel when it was 1,20O feet
distant. Afterward when the tunnel
was opposite the shaft, they heard moth
ing of the blasts, nor could the men at
work in the tunnel hear those fired in
the shaft, and Sutro finally sert to
inquire if they had discontinued work.
1t is supposed that the qualification and
hardness of the rock have much to do
with the facility with which it is travers-
ed by sound. Hard rock no doubt con-
veys sound to a greater distance than
that which is decomposed and mixed

An Old Puzzle Rewritten.

{" If you please, sir, Pm poor boy,
but I'm awfully smart and I want to
work"
The storekeeper looked at his Gus
toner IN establishment. The boy was a
little bit of a fellow, and his chin came
just over the top of the counter.
WE'LL said the storekeeper, "you
seem to haveA pretty good idea of your.
SELF"
"That's So" said the boy, Il lost my
last place cause | was smart"
" Ali right, then I'll show you where
you make great mistake, when you
say you're smart. Do you see that Jug
over there?"
=" No, Sir" said the boy, looking hard
at a box marked "Six gross safety
pins"
& Not there way back in the
store"
ooh, yes" said the boy.
p" Now that jug is full of vinegar; it
holds eight quarts. I've an order for
four quarts, but haven't any empty
measure excepting one holding five
quarts, and one holding three quarts.
Now, if you're as smart as you say you
are, perhaps you can measure the four
quarts from the eight quarts by using
the three and five ?"
" | can do it." said the boy, "just as
easy as fishing"
" If you do, I'll give you So a week
and your clothes. No guessing, now,
you must measure exactly" .5...
"All right" said the boy; shave your
tailor here in fifteen minutes to measure
me, please"
The tailor might have come even ear
lier, as the boy had the four quarts of
vinegar measured out in less than five
minutes. .....
How did he do it?

Intellectual Test Of Nations.

SO far as the general ability OF the
people of a nation to read and write is
a proof of their superior enlighten-
ment. the Americans have no rivals in
all the world. AS readers we lead all
nations. We are 100000. The popu-
lation of England, Scotland, Wales and
Ireland is $1,000, 900; OF France, 10000
600; Of Germany, 100000. In 1870
there were published in the United
States 574 daily, 1926 weekly, and
1902 other papers, and periodicals. In
1877 the figures were: dailies, 7O9;
weeklies, 6,221; all others, LOLA; total,
1914. England has but 1882, Germany
but 1885. France but l, 559 and Italy
but 935. The total for the four nations,
embracing an aggregate population OF
1877 100000, is but 6,731, or l, 213 less
than supplies the American population
of 100000. The distribution Of oul
daily and weekly papers among the sew
eral states is instructive.

Airing Beds.

No housekeeper has any valid claim
to neatness, cleanliness, and tidiness
who makes her beds as soon as they are
vacated; or, if she has such claim, ii is
based on the condition of ignorance.
To demonstrate this, let it be remem-
bered that of all food and drink taken
about three-fifths pass out of the system
through the outlets Of the skin-the
pores, about seven millions in number.
This waste and effete putrid matter is
dead and poisonous, passing off more
rapidly by night, and becoming more
or less entangled in the bedding and on
the surface of the body. Hence the
necessity, for bathing and brushing, with
still greater necessity for airing and
purifying the bedding This is done
most effectually by exposure in the
light of the sun, and in the morning
