A woman at Camp Creede:

With her nut brown hair all unkempt
ard falling around her wan white face in
tangled masses, her blue eyes red from
weeping and her cheeks pitiably sunken
where the roses used to be, with her thin
calico dress bedraggled and frazzled and
her shawl, that once was of some color,
now twisted into a cord around her poor,
spare neck; with the faded remnant of a
Isle thread glove clinging to the lean,
bony fingers of the left hand, and with her
right hand bare and red and numb with
cold; with her toes peeping through the
holes in her shoes like affrighted children
in a deadhouse, and her stockings bespat-
tered with mud and incrusted in icicles;
with the remains Of a once jaunty hat held
upon her poor, fevered head by little
strip of blue ribbon-this forsaken crea-
ture stalks around Creede like the ghost
of princess in haunted Spanish castle.
"I c-a lcol-inc for Viii. y she will tell
you, if you ask her about herself "Will
came here from Gainesville, and was to
send for me in two weeks. He sent me the
money to come on, and told me in the let
ter that he would meet me at the depot
here. He didn't meet me, but know he
must be here, for he has never deceived
me, and we have been married five years.
Somebody has stolen him from mel know
they have-and are keeping him locked up
in one of those houses in the mountains"
And thus the poor forsaken creature
rambles on. Great rough men listen to
her and their eyes fill with tears They
offer her assistance, but she refuses all aid.
"Will will come to me soon," she persists
when declining the kindly offers. God
pity her! Wills bleached bones lie
down the gulch toward Wagon Wheel
Gap. Will was accused of jumping a
claim and he paid the penalty. Nobody
knows who shot him. But everybody
knows that the buzzards plucked out his
eyes and picked the tremulous flesh from
his poor tired bones. Tbe little woman's
mind is blank now; disappointment made
| her insane. 1t is better so. A kindly old
negro woman looks after her and will see
| that no further harm comes to her.

Rottles in the Sea,

The prince of Monaco had upward of
1910 large bottles, incased in thin
copper covering, thrown into the sea at
different points of the ocean between
Europe and America, and of these 226
have been returned to him by the gov
ernments of the various countries to the
shores of which they had drifted, and
their progress has been noted with suf-
ficient accuracy to lead to the convic-
ton that the movement of the upper
part of the water is circular, the center
being to the west of the Azores. The
tide Of the Atlantic thus descends the
coast of Africa, and, running in wes'
terly direction, flows on toward Ber'
muda, and then turns eastward.
The speed at which the bottles trav
eled is estimated at an average OF foul
miles in twenty-four hours, though Al
some points they attained rate Of si1
miles. 1t was in the western half of the
circle thus described that the rapidity
was greatest. One bottle had driftet
about for upward of five years. Pal

The "scbnlensteines" of Switzerland.

In many parts of Switzerland smooth
fiat stones, evidently hand polished, are
often picked up. They are covered with
lines, dots, circles and half circles, and are
known to the Switzers as ''schalensteines."
The origin and use of these stones has long
been Il mooted point among the learned.
Some have thought that they were charms,
others that they were meant to commem-
orate the dead. The characters upon
them have long since been declared to be
undecipherable hieroglyphics, but it has
been reserved for Herr Rodiger, of Bellach,
to suggest u theory that comes anyways
near explaining their true origin and use.
The schalensteines, he says, are topo-
graphical charts, as a comparison of them
with any modern map of the district in
which they may be found will show. The
engraved dots correspond with existing
towns and villages, the lines with the
roads. Even the forks and the mountain
passes are indicated with precision that is
truly surprising. Herr Rodiger has ex-
amined many of these stones from various
parts of Switzerland, Italy and Austria,
and is sure that they are rude outline maps
of the country in which they are found.
He has large collection of them in his
possession which, taken collectively, form
a most accurate map of Solathurn, the
canton in which the majority of them were
picked up. Another significant and curious
fact concerning the schalensteines is that
they are found most plentiful at intervals
of about six miles, and usually at places
where crossroads cross or fork.-St Louis

Gave Him Plenty of Room.


Americans haven't much reputation
for veneration and in the general
scramble are not noted for courtesy to
one another, but one day recently, when
the mercury suddenly fell off thirty
points and the wind was tripping along
at the average rate of fifty to sixty miles
an hour, and two or three times faster
in spots, there was witnessed a scene on
crowded Broadway near the postoffice
that reversed all of this An honest,
sober, upright workman passed along.
and the courtesy with which he was
treated on all sides spoke volumes for
American politeness.
No matter how roughly the icy wind
played with the mob, the individual
members of the latter bowed right and
left to this honest workman. He was
bowlegged and dirty too. They might
jostle each other, but not him. For he
carried a pane of glass about IS inches
wide and 5 feet long. And the wind oc-
casionally caught it and SHE'D it, shining
and shifting in the sunshine, to one side
and the other, and sent its nervous bear.
er swing around in the vicious eddies,
filling his eyes with dust, as if intent
upon first confusing and then breaking
him up in business.
The polite crowd parted before him
like the billowy sea before Cunarder
then fell together gurgling in his wake
to tremble at what might have hap
pened. 1t is doubtful if workingmar
ever before cut so wide swath Oh
Broadway. 1t was actually fascinating
to watch his progress and to speculate
into how many thousand fragments 6

be divided. All the business WORLD

Cups Used by Tea Tasters.

The teacups used by tea merchants in
tasting tea are made especially for the
purpose of the finest French china and
have no handles or saucers. The teas
are carefully weighed out and placed in
the cups, when boiling water is poured
on them. Tea tasters nowadays de-
pend more upon the odor than the taste
of teas and some of the most expert dc
not taste them at all, but rely entirely
upon smelling them. - Philadelphia
