QUEER LAKE SALAWlK.
Its Waters Grow Warn, in Winter nnt
Men Can Fish There with Clubs.

It's Waters Grow Warm in Winter md
Men Can Fish There with Clubs.
The rich placers of Klondike are not
the only curiosity of the country trav-
ersed by the Yukon. Not far from Daw-
son there is in Alaska a really extraor-
dinary lake which was named SalaWlk
by it's discoverer, Rev. p. Tosi, mis-
sionary among the savages.
This lake, which is 30 miles long and
about Is miles wide, is perhaps the
only one in all that extreme northern
region which does not freeze over dur
ing the winter. No communication has
been discovered between it and the
sea, nevertheless, at high water upon
the coasts of the northern ocean, the
level of the lake rises, and it falls again
at low tide.
This sympathy with the sea does not
extend to the point of making Salawik
a salt lake; on the contrary, its waters
are good to drink. But another of its
peculiarities is that it's temperature
rises in winter and falls in summer.
When all the ater courses of the neigh
boring country are completely frozen
over, Lake Salawik becomes so warm
that it is really pleasant to bathe in it.
On the other hand, in the summer time
the water is extremely cold.
This popularity makes it in the win
ter time a Mecca Of fishermen. The
abundance of fish in the lake is so great
that person can almost catch them
with the hand, and can kill large quanti-
ties with club. Here for the miners
is y source of food supply which GER
tainly will contribute to diminish the
|. cost of living, especially during the win
tor, in that inhcspitable region. In
an hour man can get enough fish to
supply himself for month, and of the
very best quality. including salmon,
ranging from 20 to so pounds in weight.
1t willtnot be astonishing if some fine
day we may see upon the shores.o OF Lake
Salawik one of those fashionable hotels
which are the glory of American water
ing places.-Republique, of Lewiston,

for Blind Employer.
This is about blind man who works
for man who is also blind and does
work for which men who ca1 see are
well paid. The blind man who does
the worl, does it as well as man with
eyes. and he never makes a mistake.
He depends entirely on his sense OF

veloped.

he decided that there were things that
he could do to earn a livelihood. lie set
up a store and dealt in mems merchar-
disc at Buda, III. Fate was kind to
him at last and he prospered. Time
went on and his employees were faithful
to the man who had lost his most pre-
cious sense while fighting for moss
righteous cause.
The man who was the buyer for Mr..
Lockwood was ard is j. Oechsley. lie
worked for Mr. Lockwood for mary
years, and was one Of the most impor-
tant of his employees. But one day
misfortune came to him. Oddly enough
it struck at his eyes. He was laid low
~ lo, Lo
was abl. to be told Of it the doctors
announced TO him that he was to go
through lifs in the same condition as
his employer. His sight was gone and
never would be restored.
Finally Mr. Oechsley was able to leave
his room. He was not rich, and the i'll
ness had made a deep hole in his store
Of savings. The old problem of keeping
the wolf from the door was to be met
once more, but this time under u terri
be handicap. In the hour Of his most
trying experience his old employer
came to him and the men went 10 the
cid store. Mr.. Oechsley know the place
by heart. Ha was at home there, even
if he could not see, and as the days
went on he realized that all was not
gore, even if his light was lost. He
found that he could tell as of old the
differences that lie in materials.
His hands seemed to have been given
an extra share of cunning and in a
measure became his sight. He prac-
ticed and grew more expert. His whole
energy was thrown into tho work he
bad put himself to do, and in a short
time it was found that as buyer of
goods he was almost as good as before
the calamity overlook him.
The merchants and jobbers with
whom Mr.. Oechsley deals know him.
They would not tako advantage of him
even if they could. And they all admit
that they could not if they would.
The hands Of this man are as good and
better in their way than the eyes of
most men. He tells all about a piece
of goods, no matter what it is, by feel
ing the texture and finish. He is con-
sidered to be a frst-class buyer, and
when merchants say this OF him they.
add that they do not take into consid-
Grafton the fact that he is blind in pass
ing their judgment of his ability.
The other blind man-the employer
is thoroughly satisfied with the work
done by the one who sees with his
hands. The store is prcspering, and the
men who play the biggest part in it
are happy.-Chicago Times Herald.
