Rafting ON the Mississippi.

The halcyon days of rafting on the
upper Mississippi were full of novelty,
as well as danger. In those times,
say back before 1855, such a thing as
raft boat was unknown. The-work
was all done by hand, but the RATS
were not of such mammoth proper
tons as they are now. Today they
are made up of millions of feet of
timber. The RATS were handled by
big swinging oars on the front and
raft ends, and were manned by three
men TO each oar. Their only use,
however, was in directing the course
OF the raft, the sole motor power being
the current OF the river The time OF
making the trip from the northern
lumber region to st. Louis depended
upon the velocity of the hecurrent Usu-
ally the time required in making the
trip from Ia Crosse, Wis, to St. Louis
was anywhere from six weeks TO
three months. Now steamer with
three times as large a raft can come
down in from nine 10 eleven days. In
the old days the cost of moving large
fleet of lumber was much larger than
now, when q raft boat tows it down
for 81. so per j 1000. To handle raft
by hand required crew of thirty-five
men oP more, with an experienced
pilot. These men had little houses
built on the RATS, and lived aboard
until the trip was ended. d.-s,t- Louis

100 much In awe of the soothsav-

KING resolved to Danish them, and 10
TINS end put them, with their families
on ships and sent them TO Ceylon'
When, however, the fleet was in the
neighborhood of that island, a great
storm scattered it and one of the ships,
after being driven for many DAYS be-
lore the tempest, was wrecked upon
one of an archipelago of inhabited
islands far to the south, where the
survivors settled. Naturally the pos
terity of parents possessed of such pe-
culiar gifts had developed extraor-
dinary psychical powers.
Having set before them the end of
evolving new and advanced order Of
humanity, they had aided the deyel-
opment of these powers by
rigld system of s.irpiculture. The
result was that after a few
centuries mind reading became so
general that language fell into disuse
as a means of communicating ideas.
For many generations the power of
speech still remained voluntary, but
gradually the vocal organs had be-
come atrophied, and for several hum
dred years the power of articulation
had been wholly lost. Infants for
few months after birth did, indeed,
still emit marticulato cries, but at an
ago when in less advanced races these
cries began to be articulate, the chill.
dren of the mind readers developed
the power of direct mental vision and
ceased to attempt to uso the voice,

planned by two considerations. In
the first place the group of islands
was small and occupied corner of
the Indian ocean quito out of the or.
binary track Of ships. In tho second
place tho approach to the islands was
rendered SO desperately perilous by
terrible currents. and tho maze of out
lying rocks and shoals that il was
next to impossible for any ship TO
touch their shores save as n wreck.
No ship at least had ever done so in
tho 1000 years since the mind readers
own rrival.-Harper's Magazine.

In attending TO the sale OF candy we
sec good deal of life in its brightest

lar to us by their owners coming in for
candy with clock work regularity.
Ladies, generally mothers, and gentle
men on their way home from bush
ness, are our most constant customers,
with, of course, young ladies, the
bellies who shop every day, and are
devoted TO bonbons, or who come in
to have their pretty bonbonnieres re-
filed daily. You can always tell when
a young man is buying for his lady
love. He wants o pretty basket or
box, and in large quantities, and is
particular in his request for the GER
tain kind he has ascertained she likes
generally lemon drops, marshnlallows
or chocolates, though mixed butter
cups are new favoritics. Some men
arc very fond of candy, and purchase
it for themselves, but only ia little
quaniities-five cents or ten cents
worth--a little package TO carry in
their pockets. One young man came
in the other day and asked us, absent
mindedly, for some :.whislsy killers. y

INTO The furrow where your father In
his shirt sleeves shouted to the lazy
oxen. You frighten heswallows from
the raiters OF the barn, and take just
one egg, and silence your conscience
by saying they won't miss it. You
take a drink again out of the very
bucket that the old well fetched up.
You go for the cows at night, and find
them wagging their heads through the
bars. Ofttimes in the dusty aud busy
streets you wish you were home again
on that cool grass, or in the rag car
peted hall Of the farmhouse, through
which there was the breath of new
mown hay or the blossom of buck
