next day, after being joined by Mr.
selby and Prof, Frederick, we proceeded
on our journey toward the summit o.
the mountain. There was the remnant
Of an old road leading toward some
deserted mines, and we would follow
this the first two days, 1t was a poor
road, not having been used much ior
twenty or thirty years, since the days Of
the mining Excitement but 1t served
to guldeus in our direction,
The travelling outfit which we took
with us was simple and sufficient, It
was our purpose to go on foot for the
most Of the journey but we had no
objection to taking q cart and horse as
far as was possible along the old road,
Accordingly, Mr., selby had brought
with him a Mexican mustang and light
cart, and we loaded the cart with our
provisions, and put Selby In 10 drive,
We considered this the best plan, be-
cause the mustang was so fiery, rebell'
ious and unmanageable that Q stranger
could do nothing with 1t, Even MI,
Selby had had his hands full In getting
thSt far. When the mustang was first
harnessed In the morning, 1t would have

II had cost him eight dollars at
the blacksmith shops along the road to
have repaired the damages which the
mustangs kicking had done the cart
and harness, and the delays had made
him a day behind time In arriving at
our appointed place OF meeting, He
said that the horse and cart together
were not worth the money that he had
spent In repairs; aud he suggested that
We kill the one and sell the other, and
proceed on foot without further delay.
But we pursuaded him that II would be
to take them along as far as pos
sible.
1t was nearly noon when we were
fairly upon the old road that the miners
had made aud abandoned years ago.
Our two-wheeled cart was loaded with
such provisions and blankets as VIC saw
Gt to take with US, and Mr.. Selby was
sent forward with 1t, while Prof. Fred.

in July, the air was cool and delightful;
for our way was along q mountain sum
nit six thousand feet high. On both
sides Of us the forests were primeyal, OF
pine, cedar, fir and other woods. At
times we passed through small glades,
where there we're no trees; but thegrass
was luxuriant and green; and flowers
blue and red grew thick along the mar

VALUE OF ClVILITY.
Unaffected Courtesy as General Passp
 Irn

Unaffected Courtesy General Passport
 to Favor.
 Civility is fortune in itself, for a courteous man usually succeeds in life, and that even when persons of ability sometimes fail.
 The famous Duke of Marlborough, Queen Anne's favorite, is a case in point. It was said of him by con- temporary that his agreeable manners often converted an enemy into friend; and by another, that it was more pleas ing to be denied favor by His Grace than to receive one from other men.
 The gracious manner of Charles James Fox preserved him from per sonal dislike, even at a time when he was politically the most un- popular man in the United Kingdom.
 The history of our country is full of examples of success obtained by civili- ty. The experience of every man fur nishes, if he will but recall the past, frequent instances were conciliatory manners have made the fortunes of physicians, lawyers, divlnes, politi- clans, merchants, and indeed individu- als of all pursuits.
 On being introduced to stranger, a mans affability, or the reverse, creates instantaneously prepOssession in his behalf, or awakens unconsciously a prejudice against him. To man civili- ty is, in fact, what beauty is to woman it is a general passport to favor, letter of recommendation written in a language that every stranger under stands The best of men have often injured themselves by irritability and consequent rudeness, as the greatest scoundrels have frequently succeeded by their plausible manners.
 Of two men, equal in all other re- spects, the courteous one has twice the chance for fortune that the discourteOuS one has. --N !. Ledger.

How to Split Heavy Paper.

"Oh, dear! have picture printed one one side of this paper and some reading matter on the other, and I wanted to save both" said young lady recently, who was pasting scraps 'nto book.
 ''Well, you can save both," said her friend.
 ''Why how can I do that?"
 "There are two ways of splitting a piece of paper. One is to lay the sheet of paper on piece of glass, soak it thoroughly with water and then press it smoothly ali over the glass. With a little care the upper half of the sheet can be peeled off leaving the under half on the glass. Let this dry and it will come off the glass very easily; of course the glass must be perfectly clean. The second way is better one, but it requires some good prac- tice. Paste a piece of cloth or strong paper on each side of the sheet to be split. When it has thoroughly dried pull the two pieces of cloth apart sud- denly and violently. The paste can then be softened with water and the two halves of the sheet easily taken off the cloths. "-N r. MaI and Express.

DEAD SEA WONDERS.
A DesOIate. God-Smitten and Man-FOr-
 saIIen Easter Valley.

A DesOIate God-Smitten and Man-For-
 saI1en Easter Valley.
 One of the most interesting lakes or inland seas in the world is the Dead Sea, which has no visible outlet. It IS not mere fancy that has clothed the Dead Sea in gloom. The desolate shore, with scarcely a green thing in sight, and scattered over with black stones and ragged driftwood, form a fitting frame for the dark sluggish waters, covered with perpetual mist, and breaking in slow, heavy, sepul- chral-toned waves upon the beach. It seems as if the smoke of the wicked cities was yet ascending up to Heaven, and as if the moan of their fearful sorrow would never leave that God smitten valley.
 It is strange thing to see those waves, not dancing along and spark ling in the sun, as other waves do, but moving with measured melancholy, and sending to the ear, as they break languidly upon the rock, only doleful sounds. This is, no doubt, owing to the great heaviness of the water, fact well known, and which we amply veri- fled in the usual way, for, on attempt ing to swim, we went floating about like empty fiasks. This experiment was more satisfactory in it's progress than in its results, which were a very unctuous skin and a most pestifferous stinging of every nerve, as if we had been beaten with nettles. Nor was the water we took into our mouth a whit less vile than the most nauseous drugs of the apothecary.
 That fish can not live in this strong solution of bitumen and salt is too ob- vious to need proof, but to say that birds can not fly over it and live is one of the congregations Of travellers, who, perhaps, were not, like ourselves, so fortunate as to see flock of ducks re- posing on the water ill apparently good health. And yet this was all the life we did see. The whole valley was one seething cauldron, under more than tropical sun. God-forsaken and man. forsaken, no green thing grows within it, and it remains to this day as strik- ing a monument of Gods fearful judg- ments as when the fire from Heaven devoured the once mighty cities of the plain. -MiSSiOndr Herald

A New Use for Lemons.

eff you ever use lemons" " remarked one housewife to lady friend, ''and have portion of one left over, be sure you do not throw it away"
 ''I am never without them in the house, as 1 always use them for flavor ing, but of what use are pieces?"
 Just this. The next time you think you have done with lemon, just dip it in salt and rub your copper kettle or stewpan with it. You will be surprised to find what a brilliant surface you will obtain if you rub the article instantly with dry, soft cloth. You can polish all brass work by the same means, every stain disappearing as if by magic. A moldy lemon put into a dirty saucepan half full Of water and boiled for half an hour cleanses the utensil amazingly and re- moves any odor such as fish or onions. Try it and see if l am not right.

New System of Sewerage.

East Orange, N. J., has in operation
 system of chemical and mechanical sewerage of a novel character, which, if It proves successful after a reason able period of trial, will, no doubt, be widely adopted by rural towns which do not have a good natural outlet for sewage. The sewer pipes lead to dis poSal works, which stand on consid- erable tract of land which is to be util- ized as model vegetable farm. There the sewage is subjected to chemical treatment, combined with intermittent soil filtration, until every particle of sewage matter is either precipitated or absorbed by the soil, and the purified water flows off through drain pipes into creek which empties into the Passaic river. The system has been in operation for several months, and if it works as successfully through the win ter as thus far, may be regarded as one of the best solutions yet reached of the difficult town sewage question.
