"I have noticed" said old Colonel Little

"Well, in the very early days of st. Louis,
when this town was yet n struggling viii
lage, it was the market place for the fisher
men of the American bottom, all along the
Illinois river front. Their principal catch
in those days was the buffalo, a species OF
sucker fish similar TO that caught on a
sandbar the other day by Colonel Ratio
Rose of Howard county. Pretty soon these
fishermen came to be known in the market
places as sucker catchers,' term which
the people shortened to plain suckers In
the course of time the name was extended
TO cover all Illinoisans.
1.-The principal disease of the early Mis-
sourians was that commonly known as 'fe-
yer and ague,' with which the doctors Of
the day seemed unable to cope until some
body discovered n remedy in the distilla-
tion Of plant called pukeroot, which grew
luxuriantly I'm the Illinois bottoms, across
the river from Carondelet. The gathering
of this root formed manya Sunday picnic
party, and the grubbers soon came to be
known AS 'puke hunters and then as
'pukes.
"And these are the reasons why those Gu
rious names are applied TO all Illinoisans
and Missourians to this day. y."-St. Louis

The MAN WHO DID 1T.

II have been furnished endless amuse-
ment for the last four years by any number
of poetic effusions that have appeared upon
the subject of shells being found at the top
ofthe highest mountains on the west coast"
said Nicholson Carr. Every few weeks I
will run across some paragraph In q news
paper stating how some western herder or
pleasure seeker found q conchshell at the
top of some high peak. with dissertation
on how IL came there. OF course q conch-
shell or any other kind of shell found be-
meath the snow on the top Of Pixies peak,
Mount Davis or in the John Day range nat
urally gives rise to much poetic reflection.
1t suggests that the ocean once rolled its
awful depths about the great height These
poetic minds conceive again all that vast
deep, which could then truly have been
called fathomless, stretching OUT over APP
parently limitless space. a world Of water
inhabited only by the prehistoric monsters
of the deep.
THAT of course will be the poetic thought
OF one who should come across the shell ut
that height, when already enthused by the
beautiful prospect surrounding 1t. Then
they come down and write a newspaper
squib about it or a poem and send 1t to
some newspaper. The country is filled with
little squibs of that kind and some beauti-
full poetry has been written about these
mountain shells. As matter Of fact /
started the entire affair myself carried
"a handful Of shells up the side of Pixies
peak and distributed them far and near.
They have been found one by one ever since
for the last four years- by sightseers, with
the accompanying result Of more poetry and
more newspaper paragraphs. We Ameri-
cans are really easily taken in on any kind
of ruse that others may see fit to practice"
