Got to lie an old story.

Over 20 years ago an American civil
engineer, who visited Cabecera, IN
Venezuela, was asked by q deputatior
of the Inhabitants, who had heard OF
his skill as surveyor, whether he
thought a canal could be made from
their village to Provecue, which would
save very long river journey. He
visited the district and found that by
taking advantage of two small streams
a canal of about a league would be all
that was necessary.
The committee were delighted with
this report, and they begged the sur.
veyor to write an official letter to the
government on their behalf, asking
that they might be permitted to begin
the work at once.
Ten years after this the surveyor
was again at the village of Cabecera,
and the first question asked him was:
do you not think a canal could be
made from here to Provecue"
On his informing them that he had
been asked the same question ten years
before and had taken some time and
trouble about the matter, the chairman
replied that on account of politics, the
death Of his father, etc, the govern
ment letter had probably been over
looked. Search was made, the letter
was found and once more all was ex-
element. Nothing was talked about
but the canal.
Some years later yet the surveyor
was again at Cabecera. Immediately
on his arrival a deputation waited upon
him. do you think a canal The
speaker never got any further with
that question.-Youth's Companion.

Took n Costly Nan.

To begin with he's "a good fellow"
That's a phrase easier understood by
men than by women. 1t generally
means-well, it means he's an all round
good sort in the male line.
Saturday afternoon he was feeling
pretty good. He had been quite thirsty
If what he had taken was to be judged
as criterion. And the libations left
him in a thoroughly good humor, and
he felt at peace with the world.
In this delightful mental and phys
ical state he bethought him of friend
Of his in Providence, and he further
thought that he would call up that
particular friend on the telephone.
So he went to Broad street hotel,
told the young woman there who had
charge of the telephone that he wanted
to speak to Mr.. So-and-so in Provi-
dence and wouldn't she kindly call up
the party.
The girl did as she was babe.
''Party's on the phone" she said,
and the man went into the telephone
box, sat down and put the receiver to
his ear.
And then he calmly and sweetly
dropped off to sleep.
When he woke up, he owed the tele-
phone company 1890.
He said he wouldn't pay 1t, but he
did.-Philadelphia Press.

There is the general opinion among
oculists that the eye is much relieved
by the general introduction Of type
written matter. A recent medical work
upon diseases of the eye gives a great
many proofs In substantiation of this
opinion.
The characters are so large on the
keys that there is no appreciable strain
on the vision, and when dexterity is at
tanned the eyes can scarcely be said to
be used at all. A vast strain is taken
off the eye by writing with the type
writer instead of the pen, but the ad-
vantages of reading the typewriter
matter are even more important from
a medical point of view, and the strain
upon the hands Is also slight.
1t is said that person can work for
eight consecutive hours, with slight in
terruptions, without the hands being
conscious of fatigue. In using the
typewriter the additional labor of To-
cusing the eyes calls the muscles into
undue use, and the result is that many
defects of vision which would not
probably be discovered under normal
conditions are brought to the 'front.'

T. J. O'Connor, was very pleasantly
closed Tuesday, June 10Th, amid feast
songs, beautiful recitations and about
twenty guests, mostly the patrons of
the school who called to witness the
closing exercises and to join in the
feast and songs of the children but
more especially to testify to the univer-
sal esteem and good will which all,
without exception, feel towards the
teacher whose gentlemanly and Christ
like manners and unremitting efforts
to teach our children not merely the
lessons from the text books but lessons
of life, have given him warm place in
the hearts of the children and parents
and at Bethel church where he has
preached a number of times he leaves
a host of friends whose prayers and
good wishes follow him. At the
earnest request of all the patrons he

White of the Boiled Egg Unfit to Eat.

Very few persons can eat the white
of a hard boiled egg with any degree
Of comfort. Eggs are highly nutri-
tious and easy of digestion when light
ly or under cooked. The albumen, the
white of the egg, coagulates as soon
as it is dropped into hot water. The
long boiling renders the yolk soft and
mealy, but the white becomes tough
and indigestible and should be dis
carded.-Ladies' Home Journal.

Man md His MOther-in-lnxy.

Much has been written about the
mother-in-law, nearly all of it in com

literature on this subject there is only
one point worthy of consideration
that the writer's, almost invariably
men, have never tried to veil their in
sincerity. This is tribute from man,

substantial worth of his motherin-l law.
