experiments were successful in produc-

PRICE TEN CENTS

After the long illness of a member of
a poor household, says writer in
the Nineteenth Century, it is com
mon thing for the mother to break
down from scanty feeding and anxious
watching.
One Monday morning, in the depth of
the late terrible winter, a thin, poorly
clad little woman came through a snow
storm. to an East End workhouse to ask
for food for her children. Her husband
was lying i'll in the imfrmary, and she
had five children to support by charing
and doing odd jobs.
The woman had been an out-patient
at the hospital herself for debility, and
was taking tonic medicine at the time.
The relieving officer was kind, and at
once assisted the family with food.
Ten minutes after the applicant had
left the relief offices l was fetched in
haste to see the poor woman, who had
Just reached home with the badly
needed food She had placed the bread
and meat on the table and had fallen
dead on the bedl | was surprised to
see five chubby, well fed ch ldren stand
ing by the bed on which lay their dead
mother
The story was common one: the
food had all gone to the little ones; the
mother had sacrificed her life to save
theirsI We are all familiar enough with
such things in East London.

beery and self-indulgent pauper male
parent !He is too often careless enough
of his family; but Of the mother / can,
on the whole, say nothing but good.

holiest thing alive and | should in

experience wherewith to illustrate it

ep. The mill is now the most complete
amalgamation mill ever built in the
State and, being a complete gravity mill,
is run with but few men, no ore having
to be handled by the men after it leaves
the ore chute at the mine, except the
coarse rock that has to be run through
the crusher.
Necessarily many of the minor de-
tails have been omitted in this brief de-
scription, such as the mention of the ag-
itators, through which the slum is run
to save any quick /; the cleaning pans !;
the quick elevator, and other economies

Time is always too short to people who
improve it.
| Getting started wrong makes every
thing else wrong.
1t is possible to become bad under the

People who never ask any questions
never learn very mnch.
All who eat the bread of Christ are
not the friends of Christ.
Love is doubted when it leaves the
cost-mark on the present.
1t is easier to run with the crowd than
it is to walk by yourself.
The man who serves Christ for gain
will also betray him for gain.
A life that helps others is always wild
ening and deepening itself.
The only things we lose are those we
love raore than we love God.
Misforlunes never frighten US except
when we see them ahead of US.
The DEVILS money cannot buy any
thing that the Christian ought to have.
The real lover of Christ is always will
ing to follow him at his own expense.
Always look pleasant when you are
trying to say something to help the
Lord.
About all some preachers try to Go

it.
Without Calvary it would be impossi
BILE to know just how black the devil is.

Numerous complaints have been heard
of late concerning the management OF
the DeLamar postoffice and the NUGGET
has only refrained from saying some
thing, regarding these complaints, be-
cause there have been petitions for
warded to the Department from here
for an appointment, and spirit OF
fairness to the different applicants has
prompted silence. But three months
have gone by since Ai. Euler resigned
and no one has been appointed to fill
his place. Mr.. Weissman. who has been
acting postmaster, has been absent a
good portion of the time, 80 that, while
we have nominally an acting official. we
have really had only clerk in Weiss
mans drug store, who disclaims any re-
sponsiblity to attend 10 the mails. That
this is too loose way for Govern
ment Office to be run is too patent fact
to be submitted to by the Department
and the people. That there is an irrespon-
sble carelessness connected with the
management has been known and COM
mented upon by many citizens. We
hope some one will be appointed soon
and that reform will be instituted.
We have no word to say against Mr.
Weissman's ability to manage the af-
fairs satisfactorily, but if his business
demands his frequent and protracted
absence, then let him give up the posi-
tion to some one who can give it proper
attention.

memento of other days. 1t is.a printers

London. 1t differs from the stick used

The Basso and the King.

related of Signor Bagagiolo, whose
big bass voice used to sound sonorously
at Covent Garden few years ago, that
once when he was supposed to be repre-.
senting the king in Hamlet" he was
nrged by an intelligent stage manager to
exhibit some signs of terror. He de.
clined on the ground that it would be
undignified in king to be afraid of any
thing, and continued to comport himself
with wooden stolidity which, as his
explanation seemed to show, was intend.
ed for regal bearing. On the operate
stage there are not few vocalists with
no more idea Of interpreting character
than was possessed by the good humored
bass, and there is reason to believe that
for this cause good many regular visi
tors TO the opera houses have but very
faint idea of the plots of many well
known works. ks.-Saturday Review.

mouths taking food at one and the same
