The Untutored Millionaire.

Railroads have made the Rocky Noun,
tain country familiar and contiguous. l
may say, to the whole world; but the
sombre canyon, the bald and blackened
cliff, the velvety park and the snowy,
silent peak that forever rests against the
soft blue sky are ever new. The foamy
green of the torrent has whirled past
the giant walls Of natures mighty fort
ress myriads of years, perhaps, and the
stars have looked down into the great
heart OF earth for centuries where the
silver thread of streams, thousands of
feet below, has been patiently carving
out the dark canyon where the eagle and
the solemn echo have their home"
said this to gentleman from Lead
vile short time ago as we toiled up
kenoska hill, between Platte canyon
and the South Park, on the South Park
Il Pacific Railway, He said that might
be true in some cases and even more
SO perhaps, depending entirely on
whether it would or not.
l do not believe at this moment that
he thoroughly understood me. He was
only millionaire, and his soul, very
likely, had never throbbed and thrilled
with the mysterious music nature yields
to her poet child.
He could talk on and on of porphyry
walls and contact veins, gray copper
and ruby silver, and sulphurets and
pyrites of iron, but when my eye kindled
with the majestic beauty of these eter-
nal battlements and my voice trembled
a little with awe and wonder; while my
heart throbbed and thrilled in the midst
of Natures eloquent, golden silence,
this man sat there like an Etruscan
ham and refused to throb or thrill. He
was about as unsatisfactory throbber
and thriller as have met for years.
At an elevation of ten thousand feet
above high water mark, Fahrenheit, the
South Park, a hundred miles long, sur
rounded by precipitous mountains or
green and sloping foothills, burst upon
us, In the clear, still air, hundred
miles away, at Pueblo, could hear a
promiSsory note and cut-throat mort
gage drawing three per cent. a month.
So calm and unruf1led was the raritied
| air that | fancied | could hear the thir-
teenth assessment on share of stock at
Leadyille, toiling away at the bottom of
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ifty-foot shaft
Colorado air is SO pure that men in
New York have, ia several instances,
heard the dull rumble of ian assessment
working as far away as the San Juan
country Nue.

Within few months there has grown
up among the clorks in the departments
q perfect craze for specializing in the
New York markets. There has always
been more or less of stock gambling
among the clerks. 1t began during the
war, when Washington was an excel
lent point to watch the gold market.
Clerks in the Treasury and War De-
partments then operated largely, and
the foundations of some pretty consid-
cradle fortunes were then made. Since
then there has been no time in which an
observer could fail to notice department
people among those who take look
at the ticker" about lunch hour. A
broker tells me that quite number Of
well-to-do clerks lost their all in the
raid on Northern Pacifics last fall. A
good many are now paying interest on
mortgages put on their homes to make
good their margins through that long
fight against the inevitable. just now
crude petroleum is the favorite article
to gamble in. There are several
brokers who deal only in oil. One of
them tells me that he has three
hundred Treasury Clicks on his books.
He resents the epithet of bucket
shop" when applied to his office, and
asserts that his principal in New York
actually buys the oil dealt in. He
charges five dollars for buying and sell
ing each thousand barrels of oil, and
sixty cents per day for holding it, which
is called storage. When he sells short,
there is no charge for storage. The
margin put up in all cases is two hun
| bred dollars for each one thousand bar
rels. Very few of the clerks have
more than that amount in his hands al
time. He takes as low as twenty dol
lars, which buys one hundred barrels.
or more in can control the sale
in theory, but one of them do. The
whole is managed in New York Very
remarkable profits have accrued fol-
several months on these ventures.
Every 5000 certificate last month netted
its holder about $65, and there has beer
no month since the scheme started here
| in which the holders lost money. Now
| it is evident that to the average govern.
ment clerk, whose salary barely meets
his family expenses month by month
this form of gambling must be very at
tractive. To be able to add $50 pei
month to salary of 500 or $3.50 pei
| month appears to be to make this eartf
little heaven. So it is not wonderful
that the excitement is spreading. Who
ever can raise $500 to put into oil is do
ing so, and the broker | have spoken O

with oil fuctuating from ninety cents to
S1.00, the risk is very small when trans
actions are carefully watched The
most apparent risk to me is that of the
broker running away with the margins.
There is one popularity in the business
worth noticing, and that is that none of
the brokers will allow women to deal
with them. They say women are too
eager to risk, too impatient with dull
market, too excited over an active one,
and, last but not least, too inquisitive
and suspicious as to how the whole

USEFUL AND SUGGESTIVE.

Milk which Is slightly turned or
changed may be sweetened and rem
dered fit for use again by stirring in
little soda.-Erchdnge
Apple Meringue: Pare and core
dozen nice sweet apples; boil until ten
der, line the bottom and sides of bak-
>ng4pan with slices of stale bread; into
this put the apples; sprinkle well with
sugar and bake fifteen minutes in
moderate oven; make meringue of
the whites of three eggs and three la
blespoonfuls of sugar; spread over the
apples, return to the stove and brown;
serve with rich cream.-The House
hold.
To remove moss from lawns scratch
over the whole surface where there is
moss with sharp steel rake, loosening
the soil, and then sow lawn-grass seed,
and sift over it thin covering of fine
soil. Apply moderate dressing of
guano, or if the soil happens to be such
as superphosphate benefits, give it
moderate application. Finely pulver-
lied old manure, evenly spread, will
help. Kentucky blue grass or June
grass is the best for lawns.--ALbany
journal.
Hearth and Home gives the follow
ing remedy for toothache: Melt white
wax or spermacetti, two parts, and
when melted add carbolic acid crystals,
two parts; stir well till dissolved. While
still liquid immerse thin layers of car
bolized absorbent cotton wool and al
low them to dry. When required for
use a small piece may be shipped off
and slightly warmed, when it can be
inserted into the hollow of the tooth,
where it will solidify. The ease pro-
duced by this simple method is really
very great
1t is common to hear the complaint
that the profits of farming have become
very small The truth of the matter is,
that circumstances have put farmers
upon basis of business principles, and
the farmer who is business man,
makes money; the one who is not makes
none. TO obtain the highest profits
from his business, the farmer must use
his brains more than he did thirty years
ago. Land is higher and competition
is sharper; the best farmer ought to
know just what each crop, each field,
and each animal has put in or taken out
of his pocket; if he knows this, he car
know what crops are most profitable
upon each particular field, and what
class, breed and age of animals are mos
profitable. Farmer.
