Safer Than Lightning Rods.

Each day adds some new virtues to
the long list Of those already credited
to the pneumatic tire. The latest of
these is that the wheels of a bicycle be-
ing encircled by q band of india rubber
and dry air, which is a perfect insu-
lator, the rider is completely insulated
from the earth and consequently is i'm
pervious to the attacks of the electric
fluid.
Any one who suffers from
during a thunderstorm has now only to
go into the dining room or the cellar
and seat himself upon the saddle Of a
pneumatic tire bicycle to be perfectly
safe from lightning stroke. As the
chances Of a man on a bicycle being
struck By lightning have been carefully
calculated to be about one in a billion,
there Will, Of course, be some pessi-
mists who Will deny that this newly
discovered virtue of the pneumatic tire
amounts to very much. - Pearson's

According to the story told me by a

from the sound, this man settled in
Alaska years ago. He married 4 native
woman, and she bore him a son. A few
years later the mother died, and all the
affection Of the half savage father CEN
tered on the son. Nothing was too good
for the lad, and everything in the way
of hunting and fishing lore was taught
him.
when the boy was old enough, his
father took him ont on all his hunting
expeditions and 500 the youngster be-
gan working on his own account.
Zone fatal day he attacked an old
bull walrus, but instead Of killing it he
himself was the victim. When the father
saw the dead body Of his son he was
wild with grief, which finally settled
into a species of madness. Now all he
lives for is to kill walrus.
"When the mania first seized him he
lived in a dugout. Now his hut is on
the ground and composed almost entire
ly of walrus skulls.
"He crawls up behind the brutes
while they are asleep, and, seizing them
by the tusks, stands them on end by

Free coinage means that silver and
gold bullion shall be coined without
charge by the United States minis,
Unlimited coinage means that all
the gold and all the silver presented
at the United States minis shall be
coined into money.
The ratio of 16 to means that the
number of grains of pure silver in a
silver dollar shall be sixteen times the
number of grains of pure gold in
gold dollar.
By full legal tender is meant that
when a debtor offers either gold or
silver to creditor in any sum what
ever, the creditor is bound to accept
the same and discharge the debtor
from his liability.
