palsied limbs and stiff joints. A young

How it Was Found.

The big eagle that dropped Sinbad
into the Valley of Diamonds was a
"story bird" and it mag be fiction tina
tells us tho first gems of the now fam
GUS Transvaal were discovered in the
crop of South African Dutchman's
hen; but it is unquestionable that more
than one revelation of the riches of the
earth to men has been unconsciously
made by the act of dumb animal. In
this line of service the poor pig has
beaten all competitors if what CORES
pondent of the Cleveland Leader tells
us is true:
I have just returned from the shoret
of Lake Superior, where spent soms
sine visiting the copper regions, tho
greatest in the world.
Throughout the rocky, barren Ke-
weenaw peninsula, good for nothing as
farming lands, the immense copper de-
posts have caused large towns to spring
up, and they now give employment K
thousands of men, t s.,.,.
About eighteen years ago pig strayed
from the drove to which it belonged,

city of Calumet now stands. In roofing
about, it uncovered 9 mass Of native
copper, and showed to the world the To-
cation Of the greatest copper mine il
has ever known. q, = 5#%.s
As the result Of that pigs roofing,
humanity is now thirty five million dol
lars richer in the use Of the copper there
discovered, and the stockholders, who,
led by the pig, have helped the world
to this wealth, have received about
twenty-five million dollars for theil
trouble. A town of six thousand in
habitants has gathered around the pig's
hole, and nearly two thousand men arr
employed in operating the mines be

Apropos of the journeys Of the royal
