The selling of ice cream appears to be
the most profitable street hawking trade
The late Carlo Gatti, who first intro
duced the penny ice" into the streets
of London, once boasted, in trial for
compensation for removal, of having
made profit of "a. 900 year from that
source alone
Starting single handed his success
was such that he imported many of his
countrymen to help him, with the grand
result named.
At the Thames police court not long
since vender Of ice creams astonished
the presiding magistrate by informing
him that he sold for shillings that
which originally cost him /, thus max
ing profit of 700 per cent.
When the season Of the year is not
suitable for ices. the street hawkers Of
that commodity turn their attention
either to fruits or baked chestnuts. -

Useruloess Preferable to Brilli.ncy.


DR.. O. Il. Parkhurst says that light
ming flash Is brilliant to behold, but he
would rather have candle to read by.
There are few lightning flashes and
many candles in the world, A "bril-
liant" young man or woman isn't such
an acquisition as some people would
have us believe. The plodding habit Of
dogged toll can accomplish more than
spasmodic freshets Of enthusiasm.
The work of the world is done in its
workshops. not its, talking shows, con-
ventions and enthusiastic" gatherings,
whose enthusiasm never, by any chance,
percolates into the adjoining street or
slum.
The girl who is plain in face and
homely of figure. but kindly of heart and
tender and true, is to be preferred by an
honest man for wifehood before her
dashing, laughing sisters. rare and hand
some, whose dainty fingers never baked
O pie, whose hearts never bore another's q
burden. The light of the home is gen.
orally the quiet, humble, unobtrusivs
sister or brother who is not cursed with
the waywardness of genius
Beauty and talent have unequaled op-
portunities when combined with direct
ing character. But the plan of nature
never intended that the many should
trust to them, SO they are given to the
few. The majority Of us depend ON our
power to be useful-determinedly USE
ful-for our life's value. And the daily
effort thus to live has made this world
and our national heritage much what
they are and give to ua--New York

An astonishing amount of gold is

fore looked upon as being almost
wholly silver producing. The pro-
duction of gold is now several thous-
and dollars greater than our produc-
hon of silver. Next season Nevada
will be heard from in gold produc-
don. Even at this time some good
discoveries are being made. Some of
these discoveries, in the Southern
part of the State, are being kept Sc
cret but must soon become known
through their yield of gold. From one
OF the secret finds" gold to the value
OF nearly $4,000 was sold III salt Lake

the gold said they had extracted the
gold bullion in a. crude manner and
claimed to have discovered a region

give particulars regarding it until af-
ter January 1896. Through men
working about Disaster Peak, we
have had rumors for two or three
months of men at work III secret
mines IN the Southern part of the
State in the dire elton of Death Val
ley. One of these mines is reported
to be in the mountains 100 miles
West of Hike. doubtless all theca
