The nimerenre-

The Denver Tribune says: When a great mine has passed its usefulness a- a stock Iobbing scheme 1t is given over to the class known as "leasers." These men soon enrich themselves by working ground in which the great corporation could find no paying ore. The profes- sIonal leaser IS always eager to get pos session of exhausted mines. He Is the gleaner of the fields after the harvesters have removed the crop, and 1t IS an easy matter for him to clean up a reasonable fortune from abandoned drifts and stopes. The Robinson IS now in the hands of men who will be certain to make 1t pay. We are told that they are extracting large quantities Of good ore from the dump and upper levels; that during the past three weeks over thirty carloads of mineral have been shipped to the smelters, which gave an average of 60 ounces to the Ion. A considerable proportion was taken from the dumps, which are expected to yield large re- turns from careful asserting. Several Cornish miners have accumulated means enOugh from abandoned mines in Gilpin county to enable them to return to Eng land and live luIuriOusly there. These facts are Illustrative of the difference between individual and corporate min ing.

Some idea Of the rapid growth of the coffee trade of the world may be obtained from the fact that the { tai production, which was 675,O00iO pounds m 1859, has now risen to l,3uW0O0O pounds, or nearly doubled. In Europe alone the consumption of coffee is said to have in- creased 2f0,001,OO0 pounds in the slngie year 1879. As for the producing couu- tries 1t seems that Brazil now holds the drst place with a total of jC0,G0Q0l0 pounds, against 3}0,0O00OO in 1870. The emancipation of the slaves is, however, expected to lead to a falling of in the crop uless the Chinamen and cOohes ImpOi sd from Asia should prove mex- pecteG well suited for the work of cultivation. Next on the list come the Dutch Indian possessions, which export about 15QO0Q0OO pounds, the British East Indies now exporting over ll0OOO.- 0O0, and Venezuela producing about 1C0,0O0.OOO. On the other hand. the Antilles islands have long been declin- ing in the scale; Jamaica does not sup ply half as much coffee as in 1895. Martinique has fallen still more entirely out ot the race, and the Reunion coffee, which was once highly esteemed, and is still declared to be of excellent quality, finds no longer any market in Europe. owing to the unfashionable bitterness of its taste.

Gently, was made the occasion of a

regarded as the beginning Of new

1t is said that there is not cotton
factory in the United States east Of
the west bank of the Kennebec River,
and the location of one on the st.

should not manufacturing industries
prosper in Eastern Maine rs we'll AS

A DISTRACTED MOTHER,

A nice little motherly hen was she,
And as proud of her chickens as she could be;
Oh, they were funny lott
Their toes turned and their bills were round;
And they always waddled over the ground
In search of q muddy spot,
"Cluck, Cluck! !' would the mother-hen loudly
cali,
AS soon as the rain began to fall;
"Come in, my dears, you'll get wetp'
"Quack, quack, quack, quack !" said the duck
Inns four;
"Cluck, cluck !" said the hen, "don't YOU see
it pour?''
"Quacl1, quackW they answered, "not yet p
Though hard she scratched with her willing
feet,
She couldn't get them enough to eat
The horribly greedy thingsl
And they didn't seem to have any sense;
For they wouldn't roost on the barn yard fence,
Or make any use of their wings.
AS they grew older the mother-hen
Went out with her chickens a-walking, when
They came to pretty pond,
And into it straight, with fearless dash,
The web-footed chickens went SplaShity- -spash,
And scared their mother so fond
Scared her verify out of her wits,
Into spasms and fainting fits
Still she kept crying, "Cluck, cluclL
You'll Grown you'll drown, my dear quar-
tetteP'
ooh, no, we won't; you needn't fretp'
Exclaimed each naughty duck.
AS they grew bigger, they wouldn't mind,
But wandered Off wherever inclined.
And the mother hen declared
That if they continued behaving so,
She wasn'tto blame, and they might go
And drown for all she cared.

the necessity and also the propriety
of teaching girls to work, says that
mothers often make a great mistake
in so neglecting this teaching. The
idea that the whole time out of school
should be devoted to play is fallacy.

without knowing how to perform the
simplest duties of home, because the
patience to teach her was not poss>

how much may be accomplished by
little hands trained to do the lighter
shousework of family. If each child
,is made to feel that she is of some
importance, and that the work she
has to do is help to mother, it will
make the duty pleasure rather than
a task. Each child should have cer>
tain duties to perform, and do them
regularly and well. IT most of the
work is done by servants, perhaps it
Is not necessary that the daughters
