Lucky MIR. waltert

David Walter, farmer living near
Lititz, was the victim of unique sur
prise the other day. 1t was the thirty
eighth anniversary of his birth, and
Mrs. Walter invited about 90 friends
and relatives to participate in u celebra-
ton of the event. Shortly before dinner
a handsome carriage was presented to
Mr. Walter. Under his plate at the ia
BILE was fine gold watch. Leaving the
table, Mr.. Walter was invited to the
yard and herd of ten Holstein cows
was driven up and presented to him.
This was followed by the appearance
Of two young ladies dressed in pink,
who carried a tray ON which were piled
gold and silver to tho amount of 50, 900.
This, too, was presented to the happy
man.
Everything was the gift of Mr.. Wal
ter's wife, who by industry and frugali-
ty in their 10 years of married life had
saved the money without the knowledge
of her husband. -Philadelphia Times.

A New Recruit.


He was an unsuccessful author and
he had been vainly trying to induce the
bank officials to consent to the renewal
of his so days note and when he reach
ed home he was sad and lows spirited.
But he found this little memorandum
under his plate.
John: Please attend to these items
at once:
The gas bill is $3.50.
"The coal bill is $3.50.
"Please give the servants $40 apiece.

He went over the above items care
fully and prayerfully, and when he had
fully mastered them he penned these
lines:

bad Spellers.

There are two things about which
people are very sensitive-their looks
and their spelling. Next in gravity to
the charge OF being homely Is the
charge of being unable to spell. That
seems to carry with 1t sort of proof
that bad spelling is discreditable. And
yet it is one of the curious facts that
many of the brightest writer's spell
atrociously, and this goes a long way
in the practical demonstration that Hit.
eracy does not connect itself with the
art OF spelling. TO be able to write
without being able to spell is like being
able to run without being able to walk.
Those who do 1t are wonder to those
who look on.

census of Electrical JouruaIs.

That electricity is a progressive SCI
ence needs no proof, and the rapidly
and the extent of its daily growth is
astonishing. The vast number of peO-
pie interested In the various branches
of its commercial and scientific appli-
cation is forcibly illustrated by the
number of journals devoted exclusively
to electrical topics, there being no less
than fifty eight of these, while there
are an equal number of allied journals
that treat of the new developments in
special fields. or the electrical jour
nails fifteen are published in France
and eleven in the United States, while
the balance are scattered all over the
civilized world. With these facts in
mind the difficulty of the electrical en-
glneer In keeping thoroughly posted on
the developments of his art may be ap-
preciated.

Pearls.

Pearls, the costly product Of the pearl
fish of the Persian gulf, are obtained
from the bed of the sea by divers, who
bring up as many of the oysterlike shells
as they can and then place them in
heaps on the shore covered with sand
They are left for several days while the
fish decay and the shells open, after
which the sand is sifted and the pearls
found. They are then eleansed and pol
ished. The value of the pearl depends
on its size, roundness, color and bright
ness. The most renowned pearls were
the two which formed Cleopaha's ear
rings, one of which she dissolved in a
goblet of vinegar and drank to the
health of her guest, Mark Antony.
The remaining pearl became the prop
erty of the Emperor Augustus, who had
it cut in two for earrings for his daugh-
ter Julia Another historic pearl records
similar act of extravaganza nearer our

given to Queen Elizabeth on the open

How Mines Are Exploded.

There are several methods by which
mines and torpedoes anchored in har-
bors may be detected, but it is very dan.
gerous and difficult work, and its sue.
cess depends largely upon the circum-
stances and the condition of the water
and the bottom of the bay in which they
are placed. Sometimes they are discov-
cred by dragging with kedge. Some
times they can be seen when the water
is clear, and in order TO assist the natu-
raj vision canvas telescope is rugged
which drops upon the water and shuts
out the light from the eyes of the OBJ
server so that he can have better view
Of the bottom. There are other methods
also known to sailors and frequently
practiced. The most effective is called
"countermining is, the explo-
sion of torpedoes in the water. which
by their defamation cause the mines to
explode. Chicago Record.

Attention has been called to the very
remarkable effect of the wind on vari-
Gus inland bodies of water. 1t is not
unusual for the residents in towns on
the shores Of lakes to be greatly incon-
venienced, provided heavy wind blow
ing on shore continues for any length of
time. In the Baltic sea the level has
been altered for upward of eight feet.
Sometimes the water is blown out Of a
channel, leaving it almost dry. In one
instance depression of six feet oc-

with corresponding rise of six feet on
the other Lake Erie has been known to
alter its level distance of 10 feet on
account of heavy winds, and Lake
Michigan was at one time the subject
of considerable interest from the same
cause. The wind was heavy and contin
uous and piled the water up ON one
side, while the other was so low that
people walked out upon rocks where in
the memory of man no feet had ever
trodden. New York Ledger
