A PURSE PROTECTOR.
Invention That May Prove Boon TO Alb

Some one was complaining Of there
being so many fools" in the world,
when he was reminded that II there
were not so many fools 1t would be
harder for "the rest Of us" to make a
living. Next in line. the absent-mind-
ed are the most useful people in the
world. This, at first thought, may
seem rather paradoxical, but upon ma
ture reflection it will be APPARENT to the
slowest thinker. Their very absent
mindedness gives the inventive genius
ample chance to benefit his absent
minded mother or sister and at the
same time make his own fortune. It's
the Yankee who can turn his hand to
any little trife that makes the immense
fortune.
One of them has been brooding over
the trials and tribulations of the poor
unfortunates of the female sex, who
are said to be so under the dictation of
their dressmakers that they do not
dare insist upon having pockets, and,
therefore, have been condemned for
years past to go about with their be-
longings in their hands, including the
pocketbook, thus making themselves
the easy prey of street thieves. And

is unsurpassed by nearly any black ma

LUCK IN MINING.
Two Blasts That Showed Miner whtrs

Isn't little bit Of truth in the saying
that he can when applied TO mining OPP

might be brought forward to prove my

early in my mining career. The Tom

Then l sent home and father sent me

"One day as was gathering up my
tools TO quit, nicely dressed man

to look around He asked to see the
tunnel, which was mostly in solid rock
without timbering, and after he had
closely examined both walls, asked me
II l wanted to sell. / feigned indiffer-

tunneling at $40 foot, answered that

what's your price?' he asked. Twenty
five hundred dollars replied, with my
heart in my mouth. Come down to
town and get your money was the an
swer, and that night slept with $4,000
under my pillow, in clean sheets forthc

the purchaser asked me to help him Put
in couple of shots, and of course I
agreed. When we got to the tunnel
he examined the wall and selected a
point about 100 feet from the mouth.

sledge saw he was miner, and in a
short time we had two beautiful holes
