MONKEYS AS GOLD FINDERS.
Good in the Transvanl, hut the kIon.
dixie Too Frosty for
Them.

Captain E. Moss. of the Transvaal. says
London Tit-Bits, tells the following story
o. the monkeys who work for him In the
mines:
Il have twenty-four monkeys" said he,
employed about my mines. They do the
work of seven ablebodied men. In many
instances they lend valuable aid where a.
man Is useless. They gather up the small
pieces of quartz that would be passed I'M
noticed by the workingmen. and pile them
up in little heaps that can easily be gath
cred up in a shovel and thrown into n mill.
They work just as they please. sometimes
going down into the mines when they have
cleared up all the debris on the outside.
They live and work together without quar-
reling any more than men do. They are
quite methodical in their habits. and go to
work and finish up in the same manner
as human beings would do under similar
circumstance. 1t is very interesting to
watch them at their labor. and see how
carefully they look after every detail of
the work they attempt. They clean up
about the mines. follow the wheelbarrows
and carts used in mining. and pick up
everything that falls off on the way"

FEW "CLINGING" CREATURES.
And Eighteen Inch C0rsets Blamed
for Their Disap.
DeQrance.

"a Girl In the Philadelphia Times
I quite agree with your correspondent.
who says men admire a trim-waisted. neat.
ly shod and gloved girl. but he is quite mis-.
taken in surprising she can be ''clinging''
at the same time. Nobody can cling in
eighteen-inch stays. and that Is one of theiS
greatest drawbacks. Let an enterprisina
man try to embrace a small-waiSted girl
and in a few minutes he will find her with.
drawing herself gracefully from his clasp.
He may put II down to coyness. but it is
really stays. as a distinct creak will inform
him if he has good ears. Why, when an
actress wants to play a clinging. emotional
part. does she not put on a tea-gown befors
she starts on the job? I have heard of a
girl who always took off her stays when
she wanted to indulge in a good cry. and
even nice, pretty pointed boots are a trifie
cramping to the affections.
You can be trim. smiling. amiable and
pleasant even In siXteen-inch stays when
you simply cannot cling worth a cent.

CoaI.s Tooth Anniversary.

Colder lays may remind the reader that
1897 was the seventh centenary of the dis
toward the end of 1881 when it was first
used by a blacksmith of Liege. Belgium;
The season had been. very severe and wood
was scarce In the old Flemish town on the
Mas. Master Houllioz. for this was the
smiths name. hit upon the idea of substi-
tuting black earth" he had found for
dearer combustibles In his forge. After
him the French to this day call coal houille.
BY the year 1928, according to authentic
records, several houllieres. or coal mines.
were in full operation in Belgium, while
those of North Germany began to be work
ed about 1900. The introduction Of coal for
home heating was very slow on the Con-
tinent. and even now its domestic use Is by
far not as general in Europe as 1t is in
this country.

DOG SAVES A MANS LIFE.
Attracts Attention to n Man Lying
Across n Railroad

A Detroit, Mich, dog saved a mans life
the other day. AS Thomas Fitzpatrick. the
wholesale butcher. was driving across the
Michigan Central tracks. he noticed a
small dog running up and down the tracks
and acting queerly. The little fellow
hin and barked alternately, and kept
up his gait: and Mr.; Fitzpatrick came to

and jumped out to aid them; when the
animal started to run west. Mr.. Fitzpat-
rick followed him; the dog. barking and
running, finally stopped a, the boulevard
subway. There lay. n man unconscious and
stretched full length across the track. The
animal stopped his barking.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick half carried, half drag
ged the figure to his buggy and took him
back to his home. He was not
trunk, and under the warmth of the room
and vigorous rubbing. soon was restored to
consciousness. Then he was fed with hot
profuse with his thanks. but not giving his
name. 1t developed later that he was
wEetchedly poor and half-staryed. and that
tainted from exhaustion and fell on the
track. But for the action Of the dog he
might in a few moments have been ground
to pieces beneath a passing train.

confusion incident to the opening of new
books. the taking of inventory. the settling
movals. and the fact that the day followed
two holidays, prevented the recording of
many actual sales. The divisions of the

conditions in each. Staple cOttons were

lax. Brown goods were the subject of n
