an interesting book, try to forget the
stories have heard; but in vain. I had
read of this dreadful winter, IN account
of which, in local paper, had been ssnt
to our eastern home-and had been
thrilled with deepest sympathy, but hear
ing the story repeated by the actors In this
awful drama, 30 near the scene of the
tragedy, 1t assumed different meaning.
That winter, over at Mt. Snefies, q party
Of men had been caught in q slide, and
"the boys went to their relief; tying the
sick upon their horses and placing the
dead In sacks made from blankets taken
from their beds, they commenced the de-
scent of the mountain, when another slide
came, sweeping them all down into the
canyon below; living and dead, rescueI
and rescued-there to lie until the sun and
winds of summer melted the snow.
Years ago had seen picture, weird
and strange, which now comes vividly be-
fore me. 1t was scene on Mt. Sneffies
One of the miners had fallen sick and
died. There was no help near, so his fel,
low workman hastily constructed rude
coffin. 1t was made from the boxes In
which canned fruit and vegetables had
been packed, and was placed upon Q hand.

Wueu ABOUT nalI way down tney came &C
little store where mining supplies wers
kept. The proprietor was an amateu,
photographer, and thinking this would
make an unusual picture, photographed
them as the men stopped TO rest. Start
ingly vivid was the ghast1y face of thu
dead man in his incongruously lettered
coffin, on either side of which the miner
were grouped, their head reverently barred
In the background was the snowy noun

had Just come, with here and there clus

Nervous and afraid, I sat there with m,
book before me, listening for sounds which
never came and thinking of the sad sto
ries had heard; when thought of tn
dear Lord above us, and realized that W,

when in our city home. I knew that b,
could stay the avalanche as well as still

again on the solemn steadfast mountain

light of the moon, it looked calm ant
peaceful; and something of its peace en-

Fate.

Two shall be born the whole wide world apart,
And speak In different tongues, and have no
thought
Each Of the others being, and no heed;
And these DER known seas to unknown lands
Shall cross, escaping wreck, defying death;
And all unconsciously shape every act
And bend each wandering step to this one end;
That one day, out Of darkness, they shall meet
And read life's meaning in each others eyes.
And two shall walk some narrow way Of life
So nearly side by side by side, that one turn
Ever SO little space to left or right
They needs must stand acknowledged face Il
face.
And yet, with wistful eyes that never meet,
With cropping hands that never clasp, and lips
Calling In vain to ears that never hear,
They seek each other all their weary days
And die unsatisfied-and this is Fatei

sleep and Beauty.

Patti and Lucca, and all the great sing
ers and actresses and famous beauties
who, like Madame Recamier, were won
drously beautiful at an age when ordinary
women retire from the festive scenes of
the beau monde, understood the value of
this great restorer, and owed their we'll
preserved beauty TO sleep. An unusually
handsome st. Louis woman, who has, at
the age of almost fifty years, the fine,
well-rounded figure and elastic step and
carriage of the girl, the delicate, rose.
hued slkin and the brilliancy of youth In
her eyes, says that she has made it rule
to retire at nine O'Clock, except on very
rare occasions, and then she takes 9 nap in
the afternoon to prevent the i'll effects Of
the late hours which are to follow. Our
American women of all Glasses need, more
than any other people in the world, the
rest and refreshment which only sleep can
give to overwrought nerves and over
worked systems, for nowhere else do the
women live under 30 much physical and
mental strain.

Corporal Tanner is said to have made

in fees out of pension cases he has handled.
The pensioners viii agree that he deserves

The silver bill hasn't worked just as 1t
was expected to. Silver is selling at about
90, when it was expected to be selling at
over 129, and for the month of October the
net imports Of silver were about $500, 900,
where year ago the net exports exceeded
5000, 900, Our new law is drawing the
surplus silver of the world hither, as well
as increasing the production of American
mines.
A unique suit involving professional
secrecy has been before the Paris Society
of Public Medicine. A suburban practi-
TONER, called in to attend patient suffer
ing with scarlet fever, advised the landlord
to disinfect the house. This was done, and
the landlord sued the patient to recover
the cost. The patient then sued the doc
tor for breach of professional secrecy, and
| it is thought that he will win his case.

They havo been ascertnined to be. In

the impressions OF bodily sight and

say most OF these, because among the
