A walk over the mountain to Friedens-
vile, Pa, one spring day when the farmers
were blowing their fields, brought the late
DR.. Roepper, well known to mineralogists,
to where team was dragging pillow near
the road. A talk with the driver brought
out the fact that his farm was cursed with
more than the usual amount of stones. and
a sample was tossed over the fence to the
doctor as evidence. 1t was recognized as
mass of quartz carrying calamine-a sill
cate of zinc. The fence was climbed and
the two followed the pillow forward and
back across field covered with similar
masses
Had the doctor been sharper he would
have bought the farm and died Il rich
man. AS he was only an honest lover of
nature he said a few words to the plow-
man that transformed an exhausted Penn
sylvania farm into the seat of the Ueber-
roth mine; that set in operation the extern
sive zinc works of Bethlehem, Pa, and
built the "Nresident"-a pump that could
raise 1900 gallons of water per minute.
rhis chance shot at q fortune is but one of
many, and dozen volumes would i'll suf-
flee to note the salient points of the record.
If so much can be done haphazard it is
evident that systematic training in eco
nomic geology will furnish a means for
livelihood, as well as an aid in the consid-

Position During Sleep.

Man is when standing erect the only ami
NAL that has the thigh in line with the
axis of the vertehral column, and among
his nearest congeners in the animal world
the flexed state of the femoral articulation
is natural and constant. AS we go down
the scale the angle between the thighs
and trunk diminishes until it reaches the
right angle characteristic of most quad
rupeds.
l speak here of the attitude adopted
when the animal is at rest UPON its legs,
for during sleep there is in many cases a
curious reversion to the position occupied
in embryonic life. Thus we see that a bird
roosting with its head under its wing"
and the legs drawn up close to the body
offers decided resemblance to the chick
Ia the egg.
! have noticed that young children, when
old enough to shift their limbs, very sell
dom sleep in any but the curled up posi-
ton, and that as often as not, when I'M
hampered by clothing or other artificial
restraints, they sleep in the same attitude
as do many quadrupeds-viz. with the alb
domen downward and the limbs flexed
beneath them. am told that negro moth
ers and nurses in the West Indies invari-
ably lay their charges down to sleep on
their stomachs, and that this custom is
also common in various parts of the world.

The Laureate,s Dilemma.

We are all aware that new milk is
sovereign remedy if Immediately poured
over split ink on any wooden or cotton
fabric. Lord Tennyson once went through
an experience over which his grandchil-
dren still delight to make merry Some
dear old friends of his absent for some
years in Persia, returned suddenly for good
to England, and among the first to call
upon them in London was Tennyson him
self. The worthy pair-were not at home,
and the poet asked for permission to write
them Il few lines of welcome before calling
again. Conducted to the drawing room
Tennyson wrote his little note and was ris-
ing to depart when his sleeve catching the
lid of the inkstand, turned over the whole
contents on beautiful white Persian car
pet covering the floor.
New milk!'' cried the distracted laure-
ate, and the housemaid flew to do his bid
ding. Poet and maid now went down on
their knees together, pouring milk right
and left, rubbing with towels and hand
kerchiefs until not Il trace of the telltale
fluid remained. When all was over Ten
nyson hastily snatched his hat, and press
ing some money into the maids hands
fed for dear life. Whether those two old
friends are aware Of what befell their Per-
sian carpet on that famous afternoon is to
this day a mystery. Anyhow Tennyson
appreciates their decentralization Cor

Teaching the Child to Talk.

The work of teaching children how to
speak correctly belongs primarily to the
home life, and is as surely one of its duties
as anything else pertaining to the house
hold. Of course. the first obligation rests
upon the parents themselves to be patterns
of correct speech before they try to develop
it in the children. Be sure they hear the
English language spoken clearly, pleasant
ly and accurately at the table and the fire
side, and unconsciously they will become
accustomed to expressing their thoughts
in much the same style.
1t is well to remember that as soon as a
child begins to frame its mouth for talk
ing, direct training in the art should be
aimed at. There seems to be a notion in
some families that a little child cannot be
petted and spoken to in common sense
fashion, and as rule the baby of the
home is addressed by those around it in
terms which can only be described as idi-
otto
During the first four or five years of his
life child should be addressed in pure
Anglo-Saxon speech-words of one or two
syllables-given with the right infection.
and emphasis, SO that a solid foundation of
simple but intelligent utterance may be
laid. After that words of foreign deriva-
ton may be introduced, but the more these
are dabbled with the greater is thesneed of
attention and caution.
But correct speaking not only implies
right pronunciation of words, but also
their proper disposal, and here the hint
may also serve for the children of a larger
growth" who Outlines display a wanton
carelessness in clothing their ideas and
giving expression to them.-Hall's Journal

Did you ever notice what an unfailing
criterion as to character the use of the diff

person is apt to use the palest kind of writ

crafty person ard the scheming and selfish
seeker after personal ends and advantages.
The honest man and the reliable woman
use good, well colored ink; the genius and

people are fond of all dark inks and affect

Hardened to Cold.

Frequently, when we could not expose
our ears for two minutes without having
them frozen, says traveller in Siberia, the
natives would go for an hour at time
with their hoods thrown back from their
heads, and when it required constant
watchfulness to keep our noses from freez-
ing they did not appear to notice the tenn
perature at all.
One morning in January l stood in per-
feet amazenent at their disregard of the
low temperature. They worked for at
least half an hour with bare hands pack
ing up the tent and utensils, handling the
packages and lashing them together with
icy seal thongs without experiencing the
least apparent Inconvenience, while partly
froze my fingers striking light for my

Their fire had burned to pile of embers
barely afording me light enough to distin-
guish the sleepers. They were lying coiled
up on small deerskins, with their backs to
the embers and their fur coats thrown
loosely over their naked bodies.
The coat of one of them had slipped al
most entirely off his body, leaving his back

He was a well known divine, and he had
come to the Tombs in search Of material
for a sermon upon the hardened and unre-

with each of them. The last of the lot was

She Dotted on style,

There is one member of the Metropolitan

a good joke on his wife, She is hand
some and well informed woman, but she
has no pretensions to literature, being de
voted to pretty gowns and the things per
tanning thereto Being one day in Bren
tano's, she picked up little book entitled
Herbert Spencer on Style" and bought
it, delighted to be able to know what such
an eminent scientist had to say on her ia
vorite topic.
What was her disgust on reaching home
to find that, instead Of giving the latest
fashions, it was full of dry literary dogmass
The worst of it was that her husband en-
tered and discerned the situation at a
glance. And now if any discussion on les
convenances or the last fad is mooted he
always inquiries with a significant smile,
