They Might Welk Back.

Il went up to the White House recent

of course l had Texan in tow. Mr..
President, said, this gentleman is a
good man. He wants consulate in
Mexico.
1.-THE president said, 'Phew-w-wr

because he wants consulate in
Mexico said the president You know
very well that dislike to appoint Tex
ans to those positions.
Now, Mr.. President | said, you
will excuse my speaking plainly, but
this prejudice against men from my state
holding federal positions in Mexico is the
most COMPOUNDED nonsense on record. !

date for minister, for he handles interna-
more nor less than business man. His
official acts are almost entirely of COM
mercial character. Texans are constant
ly doing business with Mexico. The
trade relations of the two countries are
very close.
well, said the president, i didn't
make this prejudice, but it exists, and
we 9 compelled to defer to it. Your
friend must widen the scope Of his ap-
plication. Let him make out a list of
the consulates he would be willing to
take, naming them in the order of his
preference, and will see what can do.
Its singular thing" added the con.
gresham refiectively, that nearly all of
my people who have come to Washing
ton want consulates-they won't have
anything else-and they generally apply
for places in Mexico. which they can't
get, Their anxiety to be located in the
sister republic is applicable, suppose,
upon the ground that it ! near home,

The great salt lake at Obdorsk is
miles wide and II miles long, yet except
in few places it is soIidly rooted over
with a deposit of salt which is getting
thicker and thicker every year.
Our guide, who is an old man, said
that he could remember when the salt
crystals first began to gather upon the
surface Of the water. Year by year,
owing to the evaporation of the water,
the crystals became more numerous and
then caked together till this great roof
formed.
In 1878 the water beneath this salt
crystal roof found an underground out.
let into the River Obi. This lowered the
lakes surface about three feet, leaving
that distance between the water and ttV
roof
Looking down through one of the
openings made for the purpose in the
roof, we saw low sided small boat.
Our guide put us one at time into the
boat, We lay fiat on our back and
looked up at the curiously beautiful salt
ceiling overhead. Wepropelled the boat
by pushing with our hands against the
irregularities of the roof.
The guide held long rope attached to
the boat to prevent our going too far and
getting lost-a thing he said it was easy
20 do.
Many springs surround this lake.
Their water flows over the roof and
evaporates there, and thus continually
ADDS to its thickness. After many years
the springs will probably become choked
with their own deposits, and then the
whole will gradually become covered
with earth, and SO great salt mine will
be formed-a treasure for the Siberians
hundreds of years to come.-Cor. Geo

Cheerful Even In Death.

At dinner some time ago jolly old
astronomer related the following story
about departed friend. Mr.. F.:
Mr.. F. was such a good natured man
that the approach of death itself could
not disturb his peace of mind and ap-
probation of humor. He lay dying, and
his poor wife was nearly worn out with
anxious watching. She was so tired that
by mistake she gave her husband instead
of the doctors medicine a dose from the
castor oil bottle. When she discovered
her mistake, she was almost frantic. She
summoned the doctor at once and await
ed his coming with fearful eyes and bit
ter self reproach. The doctor came and
assured her that no particular harm
could have been done; that her hus-
band was dying, and medicine could not
save him now. Still the poor woman
wept and grieved.
The doctor tried to comfort her, but to
no purpose. If she had only given the
medicine and not the oil, perhaps her
dear husband might have got better.
She had killed her dear husband-killed
her dear husband. The doctor began to
argue, when the dying man spoke up
Never mind. doctor. I've had my oil
Let her have her blubber. "-Washing-

The Story of David Copperfield,"

Some interesting facts connected with
Dickens David Copperfeld" have been
revealed by Charles Dickens, the young

thority for saying-she told me at the
time of the publication Of Mr.. Fosters
first volume and asked me to make the
fact public if after her death an oppor-
tunity should arise--that the story was
eventually read to her in strict conf
dence by my father. who at the time in
timated his intention of publishing it by
and by as a portion of his autobiogra.
ply. From this purpose she endeavored
to dissuade him, on the ground that he
had spoken with undue harshness of his
father and especially of his mother, and
with so much success that he eventually
decided that he would be satisfied with
working it into David Copperfield.

Aim at The Drake
And you are bound TO hit some of the
ducks. This is precisely the same with
Tasteless
Preparation
Cod Liver Oil.

1t aims to cure Consumption,
Hits the Mark, too, and it
most effectually breaks up Colds,
Coughs, Hoarseness and all
Throat and Lung troubles that
cause this disease.
1t is natural logic to conclude
that if WAMPoLE's PREPARATION
OF COP LIVER OIL has power
TO prevent Consumption, it sure
ly is allie to cure these lesser
emergencies.
This vigor-making, fat pro-
ducing preparation is Absolute
ly Tasteless, in SO far as Cod
Liver Oil is concerned. All
you notice is delightful flavor
of Wild Cherry and Anise.
But the purest Norwegian
Cod Liver Oil is there all the
same. 1t is a great blood en-
richer. Best of all it is a natu-
raj food that in it's stomachic
effects, actually assists its own
assimilation.
In Pulmonary or Bronchia
troubles it is unequalled, No
one doubts the value of Cod
Liver Oil, but not every one is
able to take it.
WlMP0LE'S PREPARATION
removes the nauseous objection
and actually makes Cod Liver
Oil palatable.
