Taking the Wrong Boats.

Dwight L. Moody, in addressing
his great Bible class in The Ladies'
Home Journal on regeneration, IL
l~ustrates his teachings with this ex.
cellent story: GA Methodist minis
ter, on his way to- a camp meeting,
through some mistake took passage
on the wrong boat. He found that,
instead of being bound for a relig.
ious gathering, he was on his way
to a horse race. His fellow passen-
gers were betting and discussing the
events, and the whole atmosphere
was foreign to his nature. He be-
sought the captain that he would
stop his boat and let him off at the
first landing, as the surroundings
we're SO d~istasteful to him.
1.-The story also goes on to relate
how, on the same occasion, a sport,
ing man, intending to go to the
races, by some mistake found him.
self on the wrong boat, bound for
the camp meeting. The converse.
ton about him was no more intel1i-
gible to him than to the man in the
first instance, and he, too, besought
the captain to stop and let him off
the boat. Now, what was true in
these two cases is practically true
with every one. A true Christian is
wretched where there is no fellow
ship, and an unregenerate man is
not at ease where there are only
Christians. A mans future will be
according to what he is here pre-
pared for. If he is not regenerate,
heaven will have no attractions for
him"

The base ball boys are fitting up the
ground along Main street near the rail-
road depot for a base ball ground, with
the diamond just above Warmbrod's
cabin. In this place they will play one
or two games a week throughout the

Mines and Mining.

The lease upon the Benton vein by
Bronson, Brady, Allen and Fickes took
a most favorable turn last Saturday when
the boys broke into the sought-for ore
body, exposing several inches of high
grade mineral. They squared up their
station and prepared at once to drift up
on the ore, which appeared quite rich.
This lease is reached from tunnel 3,
where the crosscut starts about 600 feet
from the entrance. The leasers have
$50 or 800 feet of stoping-ground over
head, and plenty of latitude both north
and south along the vein.
Alfred Fickes was in town Tuesday,
having just secured assays upon a sam
pie of the vein. The figures showed 206
ounces of silver and $25 in gold per ton.
Mr.. Fickes states, however that there are
eight inches of very rich ore in the vein,
an assay of which, unmixed with the low
err grade ore, will show twice the above
figure. These industrious boys are to be
congratulated upon their successful find,
out of which they will be able to pull
several thousand dollars.

Needles.

Needles were first made of bone
or ivory, and specimens of these a.
ticles have been found in many
parts of the world. Bronze, ivory
and bone needles have been discov-
cred in the tombs of Egypt, and on
the monuments are representations
of ladies engaged in sewing, and, it
is possible also, in chatting at the
same time, 1t is known that the
Chinese, Hindoos and Hebrews used
needles from a great antiquity.
Steel needles were known to the
Romans, but none has been discov-
cred, the metal not being able to
resist the corroding influence of the
atmosphere. The making of fine
needles was introduced into Spain
by the Moors, and from that coun-
try was brought to England in the
reign of Queen Elizabeth. The for
eigners who made the needles, how
ever, refused to teach their trade to
the natives, and not until 1850 did
the manufacture obtain a footing ON
English soil. The needle making
machines of the present have been
brought to such a state of perfection
that the work of managing a ma
chine is largely ~intrusted to boys
and girls, and the machines turn
out thousands of needles per hour.

Reflections of n bachelor,

A woman hates to have a tooth filled
most as much as she does to cut a piece
of lace.
The best thing in the world to keep a
man out of business schemes is a wife
and babies.
As o as a bachelor begins to reflect
out loud all the married people he
knows get down on him.
The average woman would wear a
dress made of orange peel if the dress
maker said it was the fashion.
When a man says he hasn't made up
his mind about a thing, it is a sign he
has asked his wife about it.
When a man is away on a trip and
does something he ought MOTTO, he sits
down and writes a nice letter to his
wife. New York Press.

The Finest Train in the World
The finest train IN the world is the

is brand new, and represents the latest
and best ideas for absolute comfort and
luxury while travelling.

have inspected it, and also by many
others of this western country who have
recently rode on it, as being without any
question the finest tram in the world,
and no extra charge is made for any class
of passengers for its superior accommo-

How to Stop Snoring.

To those who snore and are aware
of the infirmity and wish to get rid
of it we would commend the follow
ing: There are two channels in
which the air travels in going to the
lungs-namely, the nose and the
mouth. These two passages unite
in a common cavity, and from that
point there is but n tube leading
to the lungs. There is a bone, called
the hard palate, which forms the
roof of the mouth and the floor of
the nose, separating these two air
channels from each other. At the
inner or postesior end of the bone
is a little body called the soft palate,
made of muscle and covered with a
delicate skin. This soft palate is
attached at one end to the hard pal
ate. The other end hangs loose and
moves II laps in the act of breath
ing, something like a window cur
tain when acted upon by a current
of air. This is its condition while
we are asleep or awake, though dur
ing sleep it is much more relaxed or
f1abby than when we r awake.
Now, in order to snore one must
keep the mouth open as well as the
nose, and in this condition the two
currents of air passing in and out
together during the act of breathing
catch this little current between
them and throw it into rapid vi
bration. This vibration, more or
less intense and s%onorous, is what
we call snoring. 1t is only with the
mouth open that snoring IA be &C.
complished. Try to sleep with your
mouth closed, and if you can sue
coed in doing SO you will cure your
self of a very d~isagreeable perform
ance-certainly disagreeable to 9th.

Card Etiquette.

Card etiquette is more pronounced
on the continent than in America,
for society as a whole is more con
ventional and social customs are
much more matters of form. Emo
tons are expressed by cards, and, as
an example, Katherine de Forest
tells of a bride whose husband had
lived in Paris 10 or Is years before
she married him. The proper thing
for her to do on her arrival was to
leave cards with all her husbands
friends-that is to say, at the places
where he was in the habit of visit
ing, or with women who had said
to him that they hoped his wife
would call on them. Nearly all these
cards were returned within a week
in person-that is to say, the right
hand corner of the card was turned
down. And when the woman leav-
ing it had a reception day not en-
graved, it was written in the lower
left hand corner 1t so happened,
however, that two of the husbands
visiting acquaintance were not
pleased with his marriage and did
notfcare to know his wife. They
simply left cards with no corner
turned, and the wife did not call
again. A year later a little misun-
derstanding that had crept up be
tween the two families was ex-
planned away, the two ladies left
cards with corners turned down and
their day written upon them, and
the cours of social intercourse ran
smoothly ever after San Francisco
ArgOnaut.

A Fifth Century Mosaic.

A correspondent of the London
Daily Graphic in Syria writes: "At
a village on the east of the Jordan,
half way between Salt and Kerak, a
large piece of mosaic pavement has
been discovered-that is, a floor
made of differed colored tiles, each
about two-thirds of an inch square.
1t is about 80 feet long and Is feet
broad, and is supposed to have been
the floor of a chapel of the fifth
century. 1t is a map of the country
from Egypt to the Lebanon. Every
thing is dreadfully out of proper
ton. Jerusalem is enormous and
has streets marked. The Dead sea
swarm with hsh-although none
car live in it on account of the btu
men with which the water is mixed
and some of the fish are longer
than the width of the Jordan"
Insomnia.
Insomnia is caused by a surplus
of blood in the brain, and the only
way to cure it is to remove the
cause" says a very wise doctor.
Long continued mental labor
should, of course, be avoided. 1t
keeps the blood vessels of the brain
constantly filled, and when it is over
they cannot contract. Tight cloth
ing tends to throw the blood to the
brain, and it should be avoided. The
feet should be kept warm, since cold
extremities interfere with circula-
ton. Unless the malady results
from moral causes, a little care and
common sense are all hat are nee
essary to cure it,"
