the sides of the box, two and one-half
inches down from the top, and in this
way the lid or cover can be cut loose
from the box.
This cover will have the upper end OF

the lower part of the lid, as may be
seen in the illustration.
Next get two long strips of wood

with one of them form a base all
around the bottom of the box, another
one at the top edge of the box proper,
and still another around the lid, and
with pair of hinges, with which to
fasten the lid to the box, and chain
to keep the cover from falling back too
far when opened, the chest will appear

A pair of iron handles, that can be
purchased at any hardware store for a
few cents each, are to be fastened 70
the ends of the chest above the middle,
also lock at the front will be con-

One or two sliding trays can be ar
ranged to fit the inside of the chest of
pine or white wood, not more than
three-cighths of an inch in thickness.
They should be tri6e shorter than the
inside width of the chest, so they will
slide easily without wedging.
Divisions can be made in the trays,
dividing each in three or four com
partments, in which different supplies
of nails, tacks and small tools may be
kept.
A track, or cleat, Of thin wood
nailed to the inside Of either end of the
chest will serve to hold the trays in po-
sition.
With the addition of several coats Of
paint and your name, if you choose to
paint it on, you will have a tool chest
that will be a substantial and useful
one, as well as good piece of furniture

ELEPHANTS NOT DoClLE.

Are ATrant Cowards.
How very uncertain the docility Of
an elephant may be and how revenge
NAV be substituted for that quality
was illustrated in an event that is fresh
in my mind, says Blackwood's Maga-
zine. A manhout tried to drive his
elephant into the confer Of a newly
excavated tank The elephant found
out with his trunk that hole of some
depth was just below it and would not
move. The mahout persisted and urged
the recalcitrant elephant with the iron
goad (the gujbag), and after short
conflict the elephant seized the mahout
with his trunk, dragged him off lis
seat on his neck and, placing him be-
low his forefeet, trampled the life out
of him.
The animal had some reason for be-
ing annoyed by its driver, but there is
nothing to be said in cXtenuation of
another elephant, that, apropos of moth
ing, tossed me with its tuslt. Twas feed
ing that brute in the eventide, when the
davis work was done, and this toiler,
with others, had to be tended and en-
couraged was feeding it with deli
cacies dear to the elephantine palate,
and, without rhyme or reason, that
docile and intelligent creature butted
me into the air, no doubt with a be-
nevolent intention Of impaling me that
was frustrated by my offering no re-
sistance to the tusk and by the blunt
ness of that weapon.

THE MOUND BUILDERS.
Recent Investigation Indicates That The
Wera Rcd Mon.

Recent Investigation Indicates That They
Were Red Men.
The Investigations which have been
carried on during the past five years
under the direction of the Smithsonian
institution into the origin of the artif
cial mounds found in the Mississippi
valley and other parts of the United
States have it is believed, settled very
important question in archaeology.
1t has been generally supposed that
the mound builders were race of peo-
pie distinct from the Indians, and who
occupied this country in advance of the
tribes found here by the European dis
coverers and settlers.
But the Investigations to which we
have referred seem to show, beyond
doubt, that the mounds were the work
of the red men themselves, and that
their contents serve to throw light up
on the early history of the Indian tribes.
In regard to the study of American
archaeology Prof. Langley, the secre-
tary of the Smithsonian institution,
draws attention to the lamentable fact
that, owing to the expectation to Eu-
rope of the most important collections
of ''fnds" made in this country, stu
dents must go to the museums of En-
gland in orer thoroughly to master
what is known of the early history OF
the Mississippi valley; to those of Ger
many to study the past life of Alaska,
and to those of France for information
concerning the archaeology of Cali
eornia.- Companion.

White Rat who Was Very Wise and
Fond of Music.
Solomon was q large white rat, who
lived in an artists studio In New York.
He received his name because of his
wisdom and his solemn face.
His companion was known as jun
per, and never did anything remark
able except jumping. But Solomon
was always doing wonderful things.
Solomons mistress declared that his
whiskers were longer, more delicate
and whittier than those of any other rat
that ever lived, but mistresses are apt
to say such things of their favorites.
Other people saw nothing wonderful
about Solomon, so far as his appear
ance was concerned.
Solomon was as trustworthy as a
dog. He refrained from nibbling the
curtains and rich stuffs that were scat
tered about the studio, and was most
particular not to take cheese or rich
cake up on the sofa, where he was al
lowed to play and sleep when his paws
were clean. Jumper had to be given
away because of his nibbling propensi-
ties.
Now, it so happened that friend OF
Solomon's mistress had some rats, q
father and mother and seven children.
One night stray cat found her way
to their cage and ate up the old rats
Perhaps she satisfied her appetite with
them, or maybe she thought she would
leave the little ones'till they were big

poor little things were left orphans.

sorely puzzled what to do with them
The scrub woman suggested that they
should be drowned, but the artist sud
denly remembered his friend, the pret
ty black-eyed young lady who owned
Solomon, so he appealed to her.
Solomons mistress agreed to adop
them, and the cage was taken into hel
rooms.
Solomon stared and then went eau
tiously up to the newcomers. He sool
showed signs of joy at their arrival
and to the astcnishment of those wht
watched him, thinking that in spite O
his former goodness he might be can

A SNEEZING CORPSE.
How an Impressive Scene in CIassica
Drama Was Ruined.


Drama Was Ruined.
When Macready was a young man
classical drama in blank verse held the
stage. One of these was "Emilius; or,
the Fall of Rome"
Emilius was played by an actor
named Pope, and the exigencies of the
play required him to be brought on the
stage on a bier, supposedly dead, md
Flavius, acted by Macready, spoke an
grafton over the body.
Pope was an inveterate snuf-takcr
and just before going on one night he
borrowed a pinch from one of the stage
attendants. He was accustomed to only
a mild invigorant, but the borrowed to-
bacco was the fiery Welsh snuff. Pope
was duly brought on the stage by the
usual army ST ''supers," and Macready
began:
'Thou last of the Romans, thy bleed
ing country calls thee in vain. Time
and fortune may do their worst. Since

sneezes. Boiling over with rage, and
in a voice heard all over the house.
Macready muttered:
"Drat your blood, sir, why don't you
do your sneezing off the stage?"
The audience shouted, and he scene

METHOD OF SHAKING HANDS.
The Genuine Hand Clasp Should BE M

The Genuine Hand Clasp Should BE an
Honest, Pleasant Grasp.
Almost everyone has an individual
and original method of shaking hands,
unless they are followers of fashion and
have adopted the pump-handle shake,
which was originated by the prince OF
Wales when that royal parsonage was
suffering from boil under the arm,
which necessitated the awkward move.
ment.
There is the rough but kindly y-disposed
individual who takes your poor paddy
with grip of iron, and in the desire to
show good will and friendship almost
wrenches the fingers off and leaves the
marks of sundry ring indentations on
the crushed digits. This painful mode,
though trying to the last degree, is
preferable to that mean, supercilious
and patronizing method employed by
individuals who are of the 'holier-than
thou" order.
This shake, or rather contact, only
consists in Offering the very tips of the
fingers, accompanied by an air of con-
desccnsion that makes you long to for
get your breeding and pull your hand
away. There is no heart in such a
greeting. 1t means selishness, it
proclaims personal vanity, and it is
quite as repellant as the frosty nod that
some people consider bow.
The cold and clammy handshalIe is
one that once met with leaves the i'm.
preston that a snake has reposed for a
moment in your palm. The fingers,
lifeless as those of a marble image,
writhe into your clasp and chilly sen.
sation in the region of your spine warns
| you that the human monster has laid
claws upon you. 1t is never well to
trust that handshaker.
An honest, pleasant grasp-a holding
of hands for brief space of time-a
sense of warmth, sympathy and good
fellowship, is what the genuine hand
clasp ought to induce. But how many
of this sort do you meet in the great
world so full of artifciality and ca
price?-Philadelphia Times

SEA AND MOUNTAIN AIR.
The Relative Merits of Each for Various
DlsenseR.

Diseases.
Sea air and mountain air, both being
tonic, will undoubtedly improve the
health that is already fairly good.
Children almost invariably do we'll at
the seaside, while the mountain resorts
are in general much less suitable to
them. The same rule implies, though
for different reasons, to the aged.
Dyspepsia, especially if of hepatic
origin, often does badly at the seaside,
but well in the mountains. Skin dis.
eases, especially eczema, are often ag'
glavated by sea air. 1t is not cleat
that mountain air has any effect upon
them. Struma, IN all its protean
shapes, does notably better at the sea
side than anywhere else. The bracing
marine resorts should generally be
chosen. The existence of rheumatism
cardiac disease, or renal disease is usu.
ally sufficient reason for placing q
veto on the mountains. Bronchitis and
emphysema 90 badly in the mountains
but often well at the more sheltered
marine resorts.
Obstinate insomnia is contra-indica-
tion against both sea and mountain re.
sorts, and calls usually for the shell
tered island resorts. NIilder cases of
insomnia, however, are often much
benefited both at the seaside and
among the mountains. Hysteria does
very badly in the mountains and often
not well at the seaside. Here, again. il
any change be desired, the sheltered
and moderately bracing island resorts
will probably be found to be most suit.
able. Incipient phthisis often does well
both at the seaside and among the
mountains, and it is one of the most
difficult points in therapeutics to choose
wisely between the two. Without en-
tering into this obscure question fully,
we may safely say that if the phthisis
be at all of 'strumous" type, sea air
will be found most suitable; if of ca
tarrhal" origin, the moist and sedative
marine resorts should be tried; and il
quiescent and limited, in constitu.

crimson avant-couriers of the dawn
close at her heels. The wind came
whistling in across the level ground,

the sounds of tender cooling notes;
about the chimneys the twittering of
many sparrows.
She could not tell from whence came
the stranger, except 1t was from the
wind and night, and his journey must
have been painful and full of mishaps.
His clothes were tattered and torn.
Only remnant of hat and coat re-
mained to suggest their former state.
His feet were almost on the ground,
and showed great red and white bis
ters as he limped rather than walked;
his face was whittier than his rag of a
shirt, and his gaunt eyes had hunted,
hungry, yet defiant, look, pitiful to see.
Sticking in his ragged hair and beard
were bits OF straw, while across his
forehead was an ugly red welt.
"Where did you come from, and are
you brute or human?" asked this tall,
angular, sharp-featured woman, in a
