One by one, tired by the useless
search, persuaded that the poor little
girl was crazed by grief. the men with

they had hardly taken up their pick

They set to work with q viii, and, in
the twinkling Of an eye, the wall was
beaten down, and in a deep excavation
they saw man extended; it was
Michel Pierron. He had been there
three days aud four nights.
Loud cries arose on all sides, and
ringing loud above all the others, a cry
escaped from the lips of the child. She
threw herself upon the body and clasp
ed it in her arms, half mad, weeping
and crying;
Papa! papar'
He was nearly dead, poor Michel!
Exhausted by lack of air and nourish-
ment he recovered consciousness only
to sink back fainting; but he was alive.
Miss Papa had told the truth. The
man would not die without telling his
child, and the thought of her had sus-
tanned him and given him the strength
to conquer death.
Aweek later he was out and ready
to recommence his work.
On the evening of the day before
that on which he was to return to tie
mine grand banquet was given by all
the miners to Miss Papa The place
of honor was reserved for her. A loud
hurrah and wild applause greeted her
when she entered, holding on to Mich

shouts of bravoI and wild huzzas in
honor of the little queen.
And do you know what she replied to
all this, smiling and clapping her little

1t would be difficult to describe how
and in what tones she uttered that one
word. But all those brave fellows,
whose eyes had hardly ever known a
tear, will tell you that they wept that

A Galilaan Mioroscona.

NJ. Cow, an Italian savant, has pre-
sented paper to the French academy
of sciences, in which he claims for
Calico the distinction Of having dis
covered the microscope as we'll al the
telescope. He has found book print
ed in 1910. according TO which Calico
had already directed his tube fitted
with lenses TO the observation of small
near objects. The philosopher himself
stated, shortly after this date, that he
had been able to observe through lens
the movements Of minute animals and
their organs Of sense. In a letter,
written in 1913 TO Signor Tarde, he
states that he has with his microscope,
''seen and observed flies as large as
sheep, and how their bodies were COW
cred with hairs, and they have sharp
claws" The date usually assigned TO
the discovery Of the microscope is 1921,
and the invention is attributed TO Cor
nelius Drebbel, Dutchman; but ac-
cording to NJ. Govt the date must be
thrown back eleven years, and the
credit OF the first construction awarded
to Calico. = London Times.

equally meaningless word has been
substituted. 1t is dusty" Do you adj
mire anything from stylish toilet TO

"there is nothing dusty about that. !"
On the whole, when one takes time to

dusty object suggests one whose fresh

An Important Suit IN Wake Civil Court
The Raleigh Call says:


A motion to move an important
suit from Wake to Surry county, was
made in Wake county civil court this
week. The case is that of the Falls of
Neuse Manufacturing company VS..
j. n. Brewer and others. about
which there was considerable insur-
ance litigation in Greensboro some
time ago. Fuller and Snow are at
torneys for the manufacturing COM
pany, and T. R. Purnell is counsel
for Brewer and others.
About ten years ago the parties to
the suit agreed to form a manufact-
uring company with mills at Buck
Shoals water power in Surry county.
The company was never incOrpo-
rated, but the members put in capt.
tai, purchased some old mill proper
ty and began repairing it and putting
in new machinery. The property was
issued for $40, 900 perhaps Before
the works began operation the mills
were burned. The insurance compa-
surance and suits were brought.
These were finally compromised on
the payment of $4,000 by the in
surance companies. This amount
was divided among the members OF
the company pro rata. The suit now
in progress is for an equitable divis
| ion of the real estate among the
stockholders of-the mills which were
burned in 1881. Attorney Purnel
this week made the motion to move
the suit to Snrry on the ground that
the real estate involved was located
there Judge Armfield denied the mo
ton, and an appeal was taken from
his ruling to the Supreme Court.
