Boys Wanted.

A few mornings since q lady living on
Clifford street answered the bell to find

colored ears standing on the steps. He ex-
planned he wanted to see her husband, aid

his office.

Counterfeit Coin.

The amount of counterfeit coin in circula-
tion in the United States is said to be g.
00,000, besides the great number of genu-
inc pieces made fraudulent by the removal
of part of the metal. Wholly spurious coins
are always lighter than the good ones, but
an exception, described by the Scientific
American, is $5 piece made of gold or sill
yer, and really costing the counterfeiter
So 40 each. Various ingenious modes are
used in stealing gold from coins, The most
common is sweating which is done by using
the coin as the anode In an electro plating
bath, the gold being abstrseted from it and
deposited on another surface As much as
two dollars worth Of gold can be taken in
that way from double eagle, without max
ing any difference that is detected except
by weight. A less scientific plan is to file
the smooth parts of the surface and reburn.

splitting. The operator saws the coir
through neatly, gouges out the centre until
only thin shell is left, substituting base
metal, and joins the parts again. The rims
of the coin is destroyed and the weight less

Cssey's Remarkable Adventures.
A MONTANA MAIL.CARRIER Who LIvEr
FOR TEN DAYS ON ToBACCo AND Snow.


Casey carried what is known as the horse
back mail, but which is, in fact, carried by
two-wheeled vehicle like sulky, from
Sun River to'the Twenty Eight Mile Springs.
On the q ult. he started from the former
place. There was binding snow storm lat
the time, and the road across the prairie
was wholly lost. As he did not reach the
end of his drive at the appointed time it was
assumed that he had lost mis- way, and this
theory proved to be we'll founded. There
were not wanting brave men both at Sun
River and Helena, to undertake the search
for the missing man but their most ardu-
GUS efforts were in vain. On the Sd inst.
Mr.. William Rowe reachen Benton, and
was int'rned Of the circumstances. The
weather was fesrfully cold; but this did not
deter him from the attempt that humanity
dictated. Mounted on horse he set forth
and in due time found dim track where it
seemed probable that Casey had left the
main road. Following this his labors were
rewarded on the 9Th inst, by finding the
driver about twenty miles north of Twenty
Eight Mile Springs. When Casey was found
he was sitting in his cart, which the horse
was drawing slowly and painfully along.
He was in doze and Mr.. Rowe shouted to
him once or twice before he was reused to
consciousness. 1t was then found that his
right foot and leg were frozen nearly to the
knee, and that his left foot was in the same
condition. 1t is believed that his injuries
are not serious and that he will not suffer
the loss of either limb. His story was soon
told and with his recollection of his exper.
fence and what Mr.. Rowe learned in his
search is wonderful beyond fiction. The
driver had been wandering over the track.

COMING HOME.
by MARY MAPEs DODGE.

"Come, Kitty, come |" said:
But still she waited-wated,
Nodding oft her pretty head
With, 'I'm coming soon,
Fathers rowing home, know,
cannot think what keeps him so,
Unless he's just belated
Pm coming soon"
"Come Kate ~ her mother called,
''The suppers almost ready"
But Kitty in her place installed,
Coaxed, "I'm coming soon.
Do let me wait ; He's sure to come:
By this time fathers always home
He rows so fast and steady;
I'm coming soon."
'Come Kit !" her brother cried;
But Kitty by the water
Still'eagerly the distance eyed,
With, 'Tm coming soon.
Why what would evening be-" said she,
"Without dear father home to tea ?''
Without his 'Ho my daughter--'
I'm coming soon."
"Come Kit they half implore,
The child is softly humming,
She hardly hears them any more;
But, "I'm coming soon''
Is in her heart for far from shore
Gliding the happy waters DER
She sees the. boat, and cries, He's CON

BETTER THAN GOLD.
FROM THE CATHOLIC HERALD.

fhOM lhb tA1boblt HEkAbb.
Better than grandeur, better than gold,
Than rank and titles thousand fold,
Is healthy body and mind at ease
And simple pleasures that always please
A heart that can feel for another's woe,
And share its joys with genial glow,
With sympathies large enough to enfold
All men as brothers, is better than gold.
Better than gold is conscience clear.
Though toiliug for bread in an humble sphere,
Doubly blessed with content and health,
Untried with the lust or the cares of wealth
Lowly living and lofty thought
Adorn and ennoble poor mans cot
For mind and morals, in natures plan,
Are the genuine tests of gentleman.
Better than gold is the sweet repose
OF the sons of toll when their labors close
Better than gold is the poor mans sleep,
And the balm that drops on his slumber deep,
Bring sleepy draughts to the downy bed,
Where luxury pillows its aching head.
But he his simple opiate deems
A shorter route to the land of dreams.
Better than gold is thinking mind
That in the realms of books can find
A treasure surprising Australian ore,
And live with the great and good of yore;
The sages lore and the poets lay,
The glories Of empires pass away
The worlds great dream will thus enfold,
year of pleasure better than gold.
Better than gold is peaceful home
Where all the freside characters come,
The shrine of love- the heaven of life
Hallowed by mother, or sister, or wife
However humble the home may be,
Or tried with sorrow by heavens decree,
The blessings that never were bought nor sold,
And centre there, are better than gold.

order to open new breasts and cham
