Cities Buried by Sand Storms

Sven Hedin. the Norwegian traveller.
has discovered ON the north side of the
Kuen Lun mountains, and in the edge
Of the great desert of Cobb, the ruins Of
towns which he thinks were buried by
sand storms about 900 years ago. The
largest town was nearly az miles long,
and canal connected it and the sur
rounding country with the Kerija river.
The houses had walls of plated reeds.
covered with mud and then coated with
white plaster, and on these plaster walls
were well executed paintings of men,
animals and flowers. Poplars, aprioots
and plum trees had evidently fourished
there before the invasion Of the sand. -

Water Impurities.

If water comes in contact with
animal waste, organic or nitrogen,
containing substances, it is very
likely to absorb them TO a danger
Gus extent. An oxidization of the
decomposing matter Immediately
follows, forming carbonic ammonia
and nitrous acids. These soon de-
velop into saltsof nitric acid, which,
OF course, render the water un-
healthful. 1t can readily be under
stood how germs may drift into the
oyster in this way, attach them
selves and thrive on some portion of
the oyster within. - New York

Climbing.

Selfish ambition may help as to climb
to the point where we may be seen, but
1t never aids us in climbing towhere
we can see. The higher q man gets in
the world in pursuit Of selfish aims the
narrower his field Of vision becomes.
The higher he gets in the pursuit Of nm
selfish aims the farther he can see
around him. 1t matters little whether
we climb in life if we do not climb to-
ward higher point Of vision.

St. Georges : Lake.

st. Georges lake, in Liberty, is
said to be one of the handsomest
sheets Of water in Maine. 1t is fed
almost entirely by springs, and its
waters are SO clear that objects on
its bottom can be seen plainly when
the water is many feet deep. The
water at the outlet of the lake passes
down a descent, and the fall in three
quarters of a mile is estimated to be
175 feet.

stories Of Prentice.

George d. Prentice was remsrkabl,
candid man, illustration of which ID
given in the anecdotes which follow
but these are only few of the hundreds
to be tsld:
Onoc when coming out of public
building in Louisville he was about to
pass through double door which open
ed both ways. Like the sensible man be
was he started to push at the door half
on his right. A young man coming from
the opposite direction was pushing at
the same door, being his own left.
Prentice lost patience, and throwing
himself with all his might against the
door it flew open and the young man
went sprawling on the mosaic floor.
Assisting the youth to arise, Prentice
remarked: take my advice. my son.
Keep to the right in your way through
life, and you'll never run against any
body buta blamed fool, and you needn Y
apologize to him.
Will s. Hays, the famous Kentucky
song writer, was in the latter DAYS of
the old Journal river reporter for The
Democrat. Hays was a very sudden
young man, good hearted, jolly, witty,
but lacking somewhat in reverence, and
he had habit of calling persons. even
old enough to be his grandfather, by
their given names. Visiting Prentice
one day as fellow poet, after some des-
ultory talk, Hays said:
II suppose, George, you have seen
my last song"
Prentice looked up at Hays, who was
seated cross legged on Prentice's table,
and with a twinkle in his expressive
eyes quietly replied:
II hope so, Bill.
Bill looked around for second or
two, as If something had tapped him,
and then slid down the baluster rail to
the front door. Chicago Times Herald.

First Movements During Revolution.
/ know the men Of the people in Par.
is too we'll not to know that their first
movements in times of revolution are
usually generous, and that they are best
pleased to spend the days Immediately
following their triumph in boasting Of
their victory, laying down the law and
playing at being great men. During
that time it generally happens that
some government or other is set up, the
police returns to its post and the Judge
to bis bench, and when at last our great
men consent to step down to the better
known and more vulgar ground of pet
ty and malicious human passions they
are no longer able to do so and are re-
duced to live simply like honest men.
Besides. we have spent no many years
in instructions that there have arisen
among us kind Of morality peculiar
to times of disorder and special code
for days Of rebellion. According to these
exceptional laws, murder is tolerated
and havoc permitted, but theft is stren-s
uously forbidden, although this, what
ever one may say. does not prevent
good deal of robbery from occurring up
on those days for the simple reason that
society in state Of rebellion cannot be
different from that at any other time,
and it will always contain number Of
rascals who, as far as they are concern
ed, scorn the morality of the main body
and despise its point Of honor when
they are unobserved. -" "Recollections"

wolves have in the course of unnumber- ed ages developed into dogs, therefore cats must in the course of countless aeons develop into dogs also. In the violence of their recoil from the Tenny- sonian idea that woman Is but lesser man, the more fanatic writers attribute to her qualities. faculties, and above all a future fate which would, if their assumption were true, prove her to be- long to an essentially different species, which resembles man only for a mo- ment when, as 1t were accidentally, she IS level with him in race In which she IS destlned to be far the first. The fact that, as all men are the sons of women, they must share in any inherited ex- cellence, or even change, which their mothers may develop is not so much denied as ignored, and the whole oues- ton treated as if all men were the de- scendants of Adam and all women of Eve not by a license of poetic speech, but iii prosaic fact.-London Spectator

A PIONEER DRUG STORE.
MT. Dayton Ran 1t on the Buffet Lunch
 Plan With Jnhappy Results

NIT. Dayton Ran 1t on the Buffet Lunch Plan With Unhappy Results.
 We had four or five saloons and one 1 grocery at Cedar Hill, when the outfit l Of man named Dayton arrived. He had seven pack mules loaded with goods, and after day or two he un- packed and set up for business and
 hung out sign reading, Dry Goods. Clothing, Hardware Groceries, Boots
 and Shoes and .Tinware; also Drug
 Store" The shanty which he occupied for store was about fourteen feet square, and he had everything packed in heap
 The drug store was an innovation. It was not only the first to be esta blished at Cedar Hill, but the only one for two hundred miles around, and we were in- clined to look upon the druggist with awe and respect. We were a very healthy lot up there, and, aside from accident, no man had lost day for six months. No sooner was that drug store opened for business, however, than most of us felt a yearning. Hiram Davis hit the nail on the kead when he said to the crowd: Boys, that drug store reminds me of home and of the old woman and children. Jest think of pills and salts and calomel and auinine! Civilization has come knoc5in' at our doors, and it's our solemn dooty to feel bad and buy sunthin'."
 Plenty of us began to feel bad" but when we came to buying something we found that the druggist was doing busi- ness on line of his own. When Abe Smallman dropped in to get a. dose of calomel for his liver, which was doing business seven days in the week and In need of no encoura cement of any sort, MT. Dayton said to him:
 T bought this drug store outfit of A tenderfoot down at Grass Valley. He was sick and discouraged and wanted to go back home. don't know much about the business myself. I'll hunt up the calemel and sell 1t to you, but I won't be responsible for the results"
 What dye mean by results?" duer- jed Abe.
 wall, I've got calomel, arsenic, salts and lot of other things all mixed m here, and Pm not going to guarantee anything. Mebbe it'll be calomel and mebbe not.'
 We all shied off at that, but when we came to think 1t over We rather liked the uncertainty, and the druggist was kept busy with our purchases Some of his liquids and powders were in bottles, duly labelled, and some of the powders were in parcels without label on them. If anybody asked for Epson salts, for instance, the druggist would fish around under the heap of boots and shoes and clothing till he got hold of a

the elders proceed to the parsonage to
 fetch the minister upon whose ap-
 proach group of gossipping farmers
 knock the ashes from their pipes and
 enter church. The whole service pro- ceeds with a solemnity which can only be compared with that observed during
 the elevation of theeh host in a Roman
 Catholic church. After short sermon the minister descends to the body of the
 church, where the communion tables are arranged, and breaks the sacramen- tai bread, children and the unconfirmed leaving the church in the meantime
 First the men communicate, then the women. In some churches it is custom ary for the communicant before leaving
 the table to slip a silver coin under the cloth. The service lasts about three
 hours. In the afternoon the congrega-
 tion assemble for thanksgiving, and in the evening the final prayer-meeting Is held. In the intervals between the sev- eral services the farmers pay visits to friends thuis-huis, and coffee Is drunk ad lib. Frivolity is avoided as though it were deadly sin. This is the obser- vance according to the orthodox faith, Which except man, outWardly at all events, observes he is accounted of but little importance in Dutch Reformed rural circles.
 By noon on Monday the village will have lost half it's Sunday population; the thuis-huis are closed, and the vil- lagers settling down to their everyday humdrum life. The congregation will have scattered. Farmers wives have ridden off with their wagons laden with a quarters groceries, rolls of stuff to cut up into suits for their better halves and children, and more frequently than not, demijohn filled with Boer brandy turks beneath the parcels. The pious farmers talk of the gezegende Yacht maal-the blessings of the festival while the shopkeepers congratulate themselves on the goede Naehtmaal
 The elders and deacons remain for the quarterly kerkeraads vergadering
 meettng of the vestry) at which the minister presides. At this meeting the affairs of the congregation are discussed, and the spiritual condition and progress noted. Frequently an elder tells of enmity between two mem- bers of the congregation, who on that account absented themselves from Nachtmaal, and he is invariably ap- pointed to act as the church peace maker. Sometimes a black sheep ap pears before the kerkeraad on some or other charge, and so great is the influ- ence of the raad that the accused par ties rarely fail to appear. The person found guilty is put under the church ban for certain period-he is denied the sacrament, and his children are re- fused baptism. In this way the minis ter and the kerkeraad exert a powerful influence in the Cape Colony, for the outch Reformed church of the people | outside the larger towns and villages.
 And herein lies the influence of the Dutch Reformed clergy.--Cape Town of the London Daily Mail,

WOMEN AS A RAGE.

 mothers. That is fact of natural his
 tory which we do not suppose the most
 advanced Of the crowds who are now
 writing about women and their pro-
 gress are prepared definitely to deny.
 but they would certainly like to deny 1t If they could. The assumption which
 underlies all their views is that women are not only different from men phvsi- cally, intellectually, and morally, but
 lnat they belong to different race, when may, as time advances, have a destiny Of its own. They write as if the great Hindu legists, who hold that fe- male property should only to female. had perceived part of g. great truth, Whlch IS, that women are continuously separate from men, inherit nothing rom them, and are for ever advancing upon line of their own which will in the end, rat all events may in the end. after what Mrs. Green calls an an- archie period, develop in them some thing probably superior to anything in men, or at the worst, something radi- cally different.
 The human race with these writers IS male, but women are females. and therefore something quite other than human. Their strength and their weak. ness, their virtues and their failings be- long to themselves, and no more be- long to a common humanity than the qualities of cattle and the qualities of the felidae belong to a common animal nature. They have a different line as well as a different law Of progress, and VIII in the end develop Into beings entirely separate from men, preba bly much higher, but at al vents so differ ent that to reason from the progress or one sex to the progress of the other IS as futile as to reason that because
