OUR COUNTRY NEEDS IT---GoLDI

Inc principal objects OF this company are
to buy, sell and operate gold mines.
Perhaps you cannot AFFORD to buy an entire

several valuable ones through us.
Enormous fortunes have been made in
gold mining, but never were the opportuni-
ties greater than they are to-day.
The ownership of few shares OF our stock
may make you rich.
Some OF the wealthiest men OF to-day be.
came so through mining. The cry OF the
whole world is for Gold! and its vslue and
necessity is being more fully appreciated
each day.
All precious mineral discoveries are prac-
tically gifts to the people. Each person is ,n-
titled to what he can fairly get. Why not try
your share with US now?
Splendid opportunities for securing great
bargains in mines come to us constantly.
Onr agents are reporting from the gold fields
OF this continent and from Africa. The COM

In 1887 the first shipments OF gold, amount

South Africa. In 1894 the production was
nearly $40,00O,0O0. 1t is estimated that works
under way and contemplated will produce
$I0),0C0.0O per year.
Lees than five years ago Cripple Creek was
unknown as o mining camp. In 1892 1t pro-
duced $200. 900. 1t is now producing 81 100000

The gift of the Irish peasant for
making expressive and humorous
phrases is not by any means fiction of
literature. The use Of pat" phrases is
natural to him.
A clerical traveller in Cavan not long
ago asked peasant how far it was to a
certain village and was answered.:
1.-TWO miles"
what! Only two miles?" said the
traveller, who had before traversed the
distance and found it long road
"Well, your reverence" answered the
peasant, sit is two miles shtrong and
rich, so to spake!"
A somewhat similar story is told by
one of Lord Zetiand's party, who were
making inquiries into the condition Of
a distressed district. They were cross
ing a lake; gale was blowing and
waves were dashing over the boat.
The gentleman referred to had been
assured that an Irish peasant, if treated
well, will always agree with what is
said to him rather than appear disagree
able. 1t struck the gentleman that here
was a good chance to put the assertion
to the proof.
''There is very little wind, Pat" he
said to one of the boatmen.

YOtJTH RENEWED.
What the Magic OF Modern Science Has
Accumulated.

| What the Magic OF Modern Science Has
Accomplished.
At q recent meeting Of medical as
ISOLATION in Philadelphia one of the
I speakers drew attention to the signifi-
cant facts that the average length
OF life is increasing and that the period
Of activity, in which the best work is
accomplished, with both men and
women is extending. The advance of
sanitary and hygienic science, says the
Baltimore American, has offered fair
prospect to the average man and
woman for increase of days, and mod
ern invention. by Iesscning the wear
and tear entailed by the discomforts of
former generations, has still further
prevented the waste of vitality and
nervous energy. Life is also length
ened in another way, by the fact that
time is minimized, and that travel and
oil necessary communication now take
up q marvelously short space of modern
life, leaving so much more time to de-
vote to other objects that the practical
effect is to add more days to ones ac-
count.
With this increase Of life and this
extension Of activity man is far
younger to-day than his ancestors were
at q given age. The magic of modern
times has literally performed that inn
possible miracle Of olden times and
legends-the renewal Of youth. The
wearing drudgery of labor has been
vastly lightened on the one hand,
while broader interests on the other
keep the modern brain from the rust
ing process of age narrow lives and
restricted ideas formerly brought on it,
at time when that brain is now in its
prime.
Yet we hear all about us complaints
that the rush and wear Of modern life
is hurrying men into premature graves
ut increasing rate. 1t is sadly true
that the great virtue of temperance, of
moderation in all things, has not been
assigned its due Importance in this
vast scientific development. 1t is in
spite OF the advantages of the times.
not because of them, that this longer
life is not the lot of more. We appre-
ciatc the stores of vitality laid up by
them for us, but will not resist the
temptation to be Incorporate in its use.
The youth and strength of the brain
and body are drawn upon too frequent
ly. We will not be content to live
within our vast means of vitality, but
draw recklessly upon the fund, until
nature refuses to honor our drafts, and
we find ourselves bankrupt. The bust
ness man of to-day puts into his career
Of comparatively few years the energy,
the thought, the vigor, that formerly
spread over the enterprise of centu-
ries. We speculate with our vital en-
ergies, and sometime we stake all ON a
single throw. But if we do not make a
safe investment Of youth and health, it
is not for lack Of the opportunities Of
the times.

THE PARROT KEPT HIS HEAD.

Though Badly Shaken by an Explosion He
Didn't Forget to Mock Afterward.
Marshall p Wilder is never chary of
his stories, says New York exchange.
Either they are inexhaustible or he
doesn't fear that they will lose their
edge by private repetition. Here is a
late one: 1.-TWO Yankee sailors strolled
into show in Guatemala. where o
prestidigitateur was entertaining the
audience. A parrot was perched on the
back Of the bench where they sat
After every surprising feat one sailo,
would turn to the other with the re-
mark: That was pretty good! won
der what will come next?' That was
repeated till it made the parrot tired
Presently one of them threw down a
burning match with which he had
lighted his pipe. 1t fell through a
crack in the floor and into powder
magazine. Diff! went the whole build
ing, people and all, and nothing was
left but hole in the ground and the
parrot, which was uninjured though
badly shaken up. The bird pulled
itself together, Strengthened out its
feathers, tapped its way to heap Of
ruins and croalsed: That was pretty
good wonder what will come next?"
