A cons,derat. Dog.

W. A. Halsey tells a neat dog story.
which he says will be verified by Ar
chitect G. A. Staehlin, says the Newark
Sunday Call. One breezy morning
about ten days ago they were riding
down Market street upon the rear of
a trolley car when the car passed over
a nice, light, soft hat, which had blown
between the tracks. The hat was not
injured, but the wind gave 1t a little
flirt after the car had passed and
dropped 1t fairly upon one of the rails.
A big New York car was coming and
ahead Of 1t big mongrel pointer dog
was trotting along. The dog glanced
at the hat, looked back at the car. and
then, picking up the hat In his teeth,
ran over to the curb and deposited 1t
upon the sidewalk near a group of
PAYERS who were working alongside of
the court house. After putting the hat
In safe place the dog loped after the
big car and took his place in front Of
1t. Mr.. Halsey did not see the owner
Of the hat nor did Mr.. Staehlin, but
they passed several remarks about the
sagacity Of the dog, and It is believed
that they agreed that 1t would be bet
ter not to speak of the incident except
to people who knew them we'll.

This Spring Flows Copper.

From the Morning Oregonian.-W, F..

Mel. Brown, the company's district
passenger agent at Vancouver, have
Just returned from extended trips
through the famed mining districts of

greatest activity, Notwithstanding the
advent Of winter.
THE prospectors are sticking a lit

erwise there is as much work going on
as II there were not from two to three
feet OF snow on the ground. The Koot-
enai is such wonderful country that
If half the truth were told of its min
eral wealth 1t would not be credited. A
recent find that has excited a great
deal OF attention is the discovery of an
actual copper spring, now known as the
Red Blanket in the Lilloeet District.
just north OF Spencers bridge, on the
Canadian Pacific. The water in solu-
tion runs 1877 pounds of copper to 200
gallons. and 10000 gallons a day come
is the only real copper spring that ia
known of, with the exception of one in
Idaho, and that only flows two pounds
Of the metal to the 100 gallons of water.
William Pritchard Morgan, Welsh
NJ. p, prominently known In Wales,
Australia, and South Africa through his
extensive mining interests, heard of the
Red Blanket copper spring prior to his
sailing from Vancouver with a party
OF mining experts for Japan and China,
December 8. He was very much inter-
ested in the reports he received of the
spring, and not only left one of his ex-
perts behind to make Investigation, but
is said to have offered 100000 for 81
per cent Of it. Mr.. Carson brought a
bottle Of copper water from the Red

HoNEYED MEDICINE.
An Ingenious Frenchnan's Device to
Make Drugs PaIatable.

An Ingenious Frenchman's Device to
Make Drugs Palatable.
Though modern medicine has done
much to rob its drugs of their nause-
Gus tastes. there are many in frequent
use which nothing has been found to
more than thinly disguise. That Is
why Frenchman has recently been
trying to cause bees to make medica-
ted honey. According to Paris paper,
he has been successful in producing
many different kinds OF honey, each Of
which contains, effectually hidden, q
standard remedy against some par
ticular disease. He has managed 1t in
this way: The bees are of course, di-
Vided into many swarms. These are
not allowed to roam, but each swarm Is
kept under glass and given only flowers
that have been duly medicated, and
contain the desired properties. The
result is that when the bees transmute
their labor into honey, the honey con-
tains all the necessary principles Of
the drug to be administered. In this
way this Frenchman has obtained diff
ferent kinds of honey by which infiu-
enza, coughs and colds, indigestion,
asthma and many other ills are said
to be readily, If indirectly. reached.

A Very Popular Calendar.

Few people in these busy days are willing
to live without calendar to mark the pa S.
ing of time. This fact, no doubt accounts
for the calendars of all kinds, colors, shapes
and sizes which flood the mails at this
season. Among them all the one that best
suits us is the one issued by n. w. AVER &
Son, the excepting Evcrlastingly At IT.
Newspaper Advertising Agents Of Philadel-
phia. We have Just received our new copy
and are fixed for 1897. IL is not difficult TO
see why this calendar is so great a favorite
The figures on it are large enough to be read
across u room; its handsome appearance
makes it worthy Of a place in the best fur
nished Office or library, while it is business
like all the way through, The publishers
state that the demand for this calendar has
always exceeded the supply. This led them
years ago to place upon it n nominal price
25 cents on receipt of which it is sent, post
paid and securely packed, to any address.

Every nation has a Rip Van Winkle

Taffy heard bird singing on q tree

ody. he sat down until the music
ceased: when he rose. what was his
surprise at observing that the tree un-
der which he had taken seat had now
become dead and withered. In tho
doorway of his home. which to his
amazement had also suddenly grown
older, he asked Of a strange old
man for his parents. whom he had
left there. as he said, few minutes
before. Upon learning his name
tho old man said: Alas! Tany.

WHAT A LIE.
An Editor Says That 1t Takes Money
to Run a Newspaper.

to Run Newspaper.
From the Covington (OhiO Gazette:
1T takes money to run newspaper"
st. John (Kan) News.
What an aggregation; what whop-
per. 1t has been disproved thou
sand times; 1t is a clean case OF airy
fancy. 1t doesn't take money to run
a newspaper; 1t can run without mon
ey. 1t Is a charitable institution, q
begging concern, a highway robber.
BGodfrey the newspaper Is the child
OF the air, a creature of dream. II
can go on and on and on, when any
other concern would be in the hands
OF receiver and wound up with cob
webs in the window. 1t takes wind to
run newspaper; 1t takes gall to run
newspaper. 1t takes a scintillating,
acrobatic imagination, and half doz-
en- white shirts. and railroad pass to
run a newspaper. But money-Heav-
ems to Betsy and six hands round, who
ever needed money in conducting
newspaper! Kind words are the med
tum Of exchange that do the business
for the editor-kind words and church
social tickets. When you see an ed
itor with money, watch him. He'll
be paying bills and disgracing his pro-
fession. Never give money to an edi-
tor. Make him trade 1t out. He likes
to swap. Then when you die, after
having stood around for years and
sneered at the editor and his little Jim
crow paper. be sure and have your wife
send In for three extra copies by one
OF your weeping children, and when
she reads the generous and touching
notice about you, forewarn her to ne
elect to send fifteen cents to the editor.
1t would overwhelm him. Money is a
corrupting thing. The editor knows 1t
and what he wants is your heartfelt
thanks Then he can thank the print
ers and they can thank their grocers.
Take your job work to the job office
and then come and ask for half rates
for church notices. Get your lodge
letter heads and stationery printed
out of town, and then flood the editor
with beautiful thoughts in resolutions
OF respect and cards of thanks. They
make such spicy reading, and when
you pick 1t up filled with those glow
Ing and vivid mortuary articles, you
are SO proud of your little paper! But
money-scorn the nlthy thing. Don't
let the pure, innocent editor know
anything about 1t. Keep that for
sordid tradespeople who charge for
thoir wares. The editor gives his bounty
away. The Lord loves cheerful giyer.
He'll take care Of all the editors. Don't
worry about the editor. He has
charter from the state to act as q door
mat for the community. He'll get
the paper out somehow; and stand up
for you when you run for once, and lie
abAnt your pigeon-toed daughters
tackey wedding. and blow about your
big-footed sons when they get 4 "a per
week job, and weep over your shriveled
soul when 1t is released from your
grasping body, and smile at your giddy
wife's second marriage. He'll get along.
Tho Lord alone knows how-but the
editor will get there somehow.
