and sound body, of whom it may truly be
said, she is gracefully growing Old"
Mrs Mary Rixton has lived 40 of the 81
years of her life in Barryville, and is well
known all through that part of the country.
Her son. Prof. H. G. Rixton, is principal of
the public school of the village.
The old lady eyes Frightened and hap

reporter how, after much persuasion, her son
had consented to get her a box of DR.. Will

She said: "AbOut two years ago had a

The opal mines in New Mexico and
the United States have been about eX-
hausted, no gems of much value being
extracted from them, though at one
time large sums were made out of
these mines. Opals occur in veins in
the same manner as silver or gold.
Those coming from below the level of
the water in the mine are not cOnsid-
e1ed desirable. They may lose their
color or crack after being exposed to
the sunlight So as soon as mine
reaches water level it is abandoned.

The latest bluebOOk on Irish agricul-
tural affairs tells a depressing story
of the state of things in Ireland. The
population touches the lowest figure
yet recorded, 4,53O,OOO, or about half
that at which it stood before the great
famine. The area actually under crop
is 4O,146 acres less than in the year
before, and 81, 253 acres have returned
to bog. Agricultural wages vary from
so cents day, without food, for men,
and 36 cents for women and boys, in
summer. to SO for men and % cents
for women and boys in winter.

The country uses annually more
than $1OO,OOO,OOO worth of paper, or
an aggregate of 4,OOO,OOOOOO pounds
of all kinds A little less than third
of this enormous production is used by
the newspapers of the country. The
wrapping paper of all kinds amounts
to about two thirds as much as the
newspaper and almost half as
much is used to manufacture
books as 10 print newspapers.
The production of the various
kinds of paper board amounts to
over 100000 annually, or more than
half the production of newspaper
Builders use 10000 tons of paper, not
including the $4,000 tons of wall paper
that are produced annually.

The most curious feature in the case
of miner imprisoned for nearly 20
hours in the Gaylord coal mine at
Plymouth, Pa, was his peacefully fall
ing asleep in his tomb as soon as he
realized that he was likely to be res
cued. 1t would be difficult to agine
more serene nervous system. There
were plenty of chances, too that the
miners might not get the poor fellow
out alive. When finally he did emerge,
he behaved himself as hero ought to
behave-quietly, with less thought of
himself than of his distracted mother,
who at the moment was at home pray
ing for him.-COllier's Weekly.
