FACETIA.

A MAN from Illinois got on the North
western train the other day, and met
an old friend, now living in Dakota.
SLOWS old Jim Stanford prospering
out here?n asked the Illinois man.
"Jim's gettin' along poorly, very
poorly. You see, Jim made mistake,
and it set him back"
How'd he make mistaken"
''Set his house on the ground with nc
underpinnin' under it."
swell, s'posin' he did, l don't see
what hurt 1t would do"
''Of course you don't-you live in IL
linois."
"Well, what hurt did 1t do?"
"Why, hang it all, pardner, this Da-
kota sile is so darned fertile that the
house took root and growed.
''It did? Well, admittin' It's SO, 1
should think 1t would have been better
he'd had a bigger house."
'Yes, that's what Jim flowed al
first. He had a nice two-story, then
three story one, and pretty soon hVe-
story one."
"l don't see anything bad about
that"
"No, course not, but when he got uI
there, instead of headn' out with a
French roof and a lightnin' rod, the
blamed house took to branchin' out
with bay-winders aud piazzers, and
pretty soon the whole thing bowed
over, and killed yoke of brindle oxeI
for Jim. l tell you, you can't
build houses in Dakota without under
pinnin'. "

Fairy tales are popular among them,
and there is one which comes from over
the border in Siam, which was told US
by Siamese. The eXaggeratlOns all
hang together artlStically and are in the
same key, as it were: There was
once a king who heard that there was
an enormous giant in a far country,
and he declared that he should never
rest till he got a hair of the giants
head. So he sent his fleet, and they
sailed and they sailed and they sailed
for weeks and weeks and weeks, and at
last one day in the afternoon it became
suddenly dark, and they stuck fast, and
could get neither forward nor back
ward. Now, the fact was that they
had got inside hole ina sort of carrot,
the smallest vegetable IN the giants
kingdom. And behold the next morn
ing the giants children went out
to fish, and as they went they picked up
two or three elephants On their way for
bait, but they were only able to catch
few of the very smallest fishes in the
country something equivalent to
your mlnnows,'" said the narrator.
'And as they were going back they
saw the carrot growing by the waters
edge, and pulled it up to put it into the
curry, and inside it was the whole fleet.
After they got home the giant threw
the fish and the carrot into the pot in
order to boil them, when the feet rose
out of the root to the top of the water
with all the men in it. What are
those curious inSects?' said the giant,
peering down into the pot" Then
came a good deal more, which the mar
rator had forgotten. ''The men tried
to shout to the giant and tell him whaI
it was that they wanted, but their
voices were too weak, and he could not
hear word they said. at length he
lifted them up to his ear in his hand,
and q whole boats crew marched in at
the hole and went ever such long way
up inside, and then they all shouted
together and told him that they had
come from their king to ask him for a
hair of his head. So at last he was able
to hear what even then seemed to him
only a whisper. Unlike his kind, the
giant was apparently as good-natured
As he was big-he gave them the hair,
lifted them back to the sea, where the
hair, when put on board the fleet,
nearly sank it, after which he puffed
out his cheeks and gave tremendous
blow. which carried the fleet straight
home. hundreds of miles, at one gol'

The Electrician the improvements in the
storage of electric energy and In cleo

tricycles can not only be lighted. but

A tool steel is being produced at a
steel works in Philadelphia, which, it IS
claimed, possesses remarkable qualities.
Its chief popularity consists in its be-
ing self-hardening, like English mus
het steel. No process of hardening in
writer or other liquids. nor of subse-
quent tempering, is necessary in its
use. A tool frcm this steel is shaped
over the anvil, as with ordinary steel.
When the tool IS forged, it is laid aside
to cool In the air. When quite cold, it
is found to have taken a hardness ex-
ceeding that Of any steel hardened by
the usual process of immersion in water

COVERED yards possess one advan-
tage in regard to the smaller consump
ton of food by animals that are cover
ed than by animals that are not. The
cold wind which causes loss of the
heat of the body of an animal necessi-
tates that animal consuming more food
to regain such beat, but the wet which
falls upon any animal. requires a still
much larger amount of heat in order TO
convert that moisture into vapor. Un-
der a covered yard an animal IS pro-
tected not only from cold winds. but
also from the rain, and an immense
amount of food is thus saved.

When the supply of coal gets short
elsewhere the world can turn to China
for "black diamonds" Baron Rich
thofen shows that in that country the
supply of anthracite coal Is not less than
$50, 900, ,000, 900 of tons, and the bitum-
inous coal area is Just as large. The
Baron thinks that, taking what is left
in other parts of the world with the
Chinese coal area, we need not fear a
fuel famine. He thinks that the supply
in the Chinese province of Shansi alone
will last the world about 1900 years.
