Low trade Mines.

A good many mining investors,
chase for wealth, have declared with
bitter emphasis that they would never
wearied with disappointment in the
put a dollar in q mine that assays or
is said to assay very high. So May
of these have proved failures that
there has been, during the last de-
cade, a revulsion of opinion in favor
of low-grade quartz properties in
stead Of rich ones. That the feeling
is q sensible one is easily demon
strated by showing the larger per-
centage of success in working the
large. low grade properties than in
any other kind of mining. The
best paying and most permanent
gold mines in America are proper
ties like the Homestake in the Black
Hills, which have divided upwards
of four millions among stockholders;
the Treadwell in Alaska. which is
said to be paying 6 5000 per day
profit and the Plymouth Consolidated
in California, whose net income has
been almost as much as the Home
stakes. All these. and many more
of the most successful gold mines 10
the world, work no ore producing
more than $40 per ton. 1t might,
we're there not notable exceptions, be
deemed almost q rule that paying
and permanent gold quartz mines
have no rich ock.-Oregonian.

Anecdotes OF Children.

Two recently published anecdotes Of
children are worth boiling down and
reprinting. One is Of a little Boston
girl who had Just begun going to
school. She heard a group of chill
dren Dragging about being in fractions,
and in the fourth reader, and SO on,
and, not to be outdone, chirped in
promptly: "I'm in a primer, and
a slate aud a pencil and a sponge"
The other story is about a small Chi
cago boy who was delighted n day
when a slight fire in his fathers house
brought the firemen and the engine.
"Say," he exclaimed to the first fire.
man he met "say, if there should
be a big fire here and you want to
ave things, please don't save my
Winter fannels, for they tickle me-"

Jew selling Bibles.

A young Jew from Roumania.
converted after ~shipwreck on his way
to New York, appeared at the train
ing school. He went down to the
market with Bibles and came back
radiant with Joy, having spent most
of his time with eight or ten Arabs,
who, when they learned that be had
the New Testament in Arabic,
crowded eagerly around him. One
young man bought the Testament
and left his merchandise and came
back to the training school with the
jew to get other books which he had
seen at Beirut, Syria.

A Com.tock Mystery.

The disbursement OF nearly a quar-
ter Of a million in coin to mine and
mill employees on the Comstock lode
in the past ~ hours and probably
5000 more paid for clerk hire,
skilled and ordinary labor, has had
no marked revivifying eAct on local
trade.
The suddenness with which the
large SUN disbursed monthly vanishes
from view in a community not exceed
ing 5000 in population is a mystery
and can be accounted for on no other
theory than that the recipients OF
late years developed a faculty OF
thrift unknown in the early history OF
the lode.-Virginia Chronicle.

How No, 90 Get Zoo Fat.

But here is u secret for women
troubled with obesity, which we
anticipate will carry some weight.
namely, that bodies exposed con-
stantly to the sun "gain such &C.
tivity of the blood forces as to prevent
any excessive forming of adipose
matter" 1t must not. however, be
supposed that, on the other hand,
plenty of sunlight is conductive TO
leanness. Not SO, for the really
healthful condition is neither fat nor
lean, but shapely and plump, and
the suns rays quicken the nutrient
functions, producing a beautiful
and elastic roundness Of form; in
deed, the constant action of the sun
upon the human body is like the
effect upon a plant, vitalizing and
strengthening to every part. DRESS

Mrs. Ada Z. Taylor. on Locust

Free Mason known to be living in
the world. He has been a Mason
for II years. He was born in 1896.

porting munitions and troops. He
came to California in 1850, but re-

Resuminr welded Life After 81
Voluntary Parting Of T~hirty-two
Years.
Forty years ago Joseph Miles. Of
Millerton, N, Y, married q neigh
boris daughter and settled down to
farming. He got tired Of this and
told his wife that he thought they'd
better make q change. She objected
and, in fact, refused to quit her old
home. He said that she could do as
she pleased, and that IL ever she de-
cided 10 live with him she'd be well
coined, but he wouldn't return to
Millerton. So he left her and their
boy. She made her home with her
parents on their farm. The husband
fought through the war, then went
to Sidney, N. Y, and began to make
money. he acquired a snug little
fortune, but had no one to share 1t
with.
A friend who knew his story went
to Millerton, found Mrs. Miles liv-
ing on the homestead with the boy,
a man OF "a years, told her all about
Joseph aud induced her to consent
to go to Sidney and join him. She
didn't need much persuasion, and
Joseph, too, was glad when be
learned Of the negotiations. The
neighbors heard of it, and the other
night throDged to the railroad sta
tion to meet the train that brought
Mrs. Miles. She didn't recognize
Joseph and be didn't know her, but
after the introduction they seemed
very happy, and have taken UP
welded life where they laid it down
80 years ago.-Troy Budget.

Feisned Death and was Buried.


Feigned Death and was Buried.
Colonel Musser relates an interest
ing incident of army experience
which occurred while he was in com
mand of the post of Washington.
Ark, in the Summer of 1864. The
story was related by a Federal
officer, a prisoner in camp, to Cap
tain james L. Otey of the Eighth
Missouri Infantry. Tho Captain
was playing the part of the hospi-
table host toward his guest and
prisoner, through the medium of a
couple of tin cups and q Jug filled
with homemade whisky, clear as
crystal, and uncontaminated by an
excise tax. Lieutenant Boren was
a Federal officer in an Ohio regiment
and had fallen into the hands OF
Dick Taylor about the time OF
Banks Red River expedition. Be-
coming weary of captivity and dis
gusted with Confederate rations, he
planned with several of his fellow
prisoners a scheme by which at last
one of their members might make
his escape. Whisky poker was
played to determine which one
should be given the first chance.
Lieutenant Boren won. In ac-
cordance with the scheme agreed to,
he feigned death, was buried by his
comrades in a shallow grave, and
succeeded in making his resurrection
after the departure of the Confed-
crates and companies. The de-
serted grave was discovered during
the day by some loiterers about the
camping place and the ruse drop
ped onto and reported to the COM
mandant at Marsbfeld. La, who

Cox did some contract work for
Charles Mclaughlin. The price of
the service was nearly 800 900.
Mclaughlin refused to pay, not be-
cause he did not owe the money. but
because be thought he could worry
Cox in the courts and defer the
payment until Cox would accept

Cox sought redress in the courts.
He was awarded judgment in full

acquitted.

Treat Your Life Partner Like u
Man Of Heart.

First, get q wife; secondly, be
patient. You may have great trials
and perplexities in your business
with the world, but do not, there
fore, carry to your home a cloudy or
contracted brow. Your wife may
have trials, which, though of less
magnitude, may be hard for her to
bear. A kind, conciliatory word, a
tender look, will do wonders in chas-
ing from her bow all clouds OF gloom.
You encounter your difficulties in
open cir. famed by heavens cool
breezes, but your wife is often shut
in from these riviving influences,
and her health fails, her spirits lose
their elasticity. But. oh, bear with
her. She has trials. and sorrows to
which you are a stranger, but which
your tenderness can deprive of all
their anguish. Notice kinkly her
efforts to promote your comfort.
Do not receive all her good offices
as a matter Of course, and pass them
by, at the same time being very sure
to observe any omission of what you
may consider duty to you. Some
times yield your wishes to hers. Her
preferences may be as strong as
yours. Regard it as an indulgence
to yourself to yield sometimes.
Think you it is not as difficult for
her to give up always? Is there not
danger she will deem you selfish?
With such an opinion she can not
love as she might. Again, show
yourself a manly man, that your wife
may look mp to you and feel that
you will act nobly, and a confde
in your Judgment. = Christian at
Work.
