ror ELL. Reputation. $500.

The proprietor Of a large dry goods
store had decided TO tear down the old
building and erect new one In It's
stead. In furtherance Of this plan he
was removing his goods to temporary
quarters in another building.
The goods were nearly all out OF the
old structure when from some IN
known cause 1t caught fire. The de-
partment was promptly on hand and
soon had a stream playing on the
flames, but the merchant was wild
with excitement. Running up to the
chief, he urged him to greater haste.
"Neyer mind the goodsp' he shouted
"Saye the buildingl III give the boys

If they don't let the fire spread beyond
that foor!"
"Why. you're going TO tear the Old
building down anyway, aren't your

By great exertion the fire was ex-
tinguished with little loss so far as the
building was concerned, and the mer-
chant was as good as his word

QueeF Creatures.

There are microscopic creatures
which live in roof cutters and on the
bark of trees and are known as water
bears and wheel animalcule. If allow
ed to dry up under the microscope, they
can be seen to shrivel into shapeless
masses, which may be kept for years
uninjured in the dried state.
On being placed after this long inter
val in water they gradually plump up
resume their proper shape and move
about In search of food just as If moth
ing had happened. Much the same Is
true for the minute worms which from
the substances In which they live are
known as paste and vinegar cells. Well
known is the famous case Of the desert
snail, which, retracted into Its SHE'LL
was fastened to tablet in the British
museum and showed no sign of life for
seven years, when one morning 1t was
found crawling hungrlly about the
glass case that formed Its prison.

p TIE Life of a Coal Miner.


First. the boy of eight or ten is sent
TO the breaker to pick the slate and 9th
er impurities from the coal which has
been brought up from the mine. FROM
there he is promoted and becomes a
door boy, working In the mine. AS he
grows older and stronger he Is al
vanced to the position and given the
nav of n laborer. There he gains the
experience which secures him place
as a miners helper. and as he acquires
skill and strength he becomes, when IN
the height Of his manhood and vigor, q
full fedged miner.
IL he Is fortunate enough to escape
the falls of rock and coal, he may re-
tain this position as miner for num-
Der of years. But as age creeps on and
he IS attacked by some OF the many
diseases incident to work In the mines
he makes way for those younger ana
more vigorous following him up the
ladder whose summit he has reached.
He then starts on the descent, going
back to become a miners helper, then
n mine laborer, now a door boy, and
when old and decrepit he finally re
turns to the breaker where he started
as a child. earning the same wages as
are received by the little urchins VINO
work at his side. There Is no incen-
tive for ambition In the average min
er's life. He cannot rise TO places or
eminence and wealth. Only In 900
can even be given place as a foreman
or superintendent. and these are posi-
lions which few miners care to hold

At the battle Of Omdurman a soldier
belonging to a Scotch regiment was
nearly killed by bullet which struck
the ground Just in front Of him while
he was firing In a reclining position.
On rising to move a few feet forward,
something came down his sleeve. 1t
was the bullet. How 1t got up his
sleeve without inflcting damage can
only be accounted for by the fact that
It must have been spent by the time 1t
