A Beautiful Picture.

No more beautiful view was ever
sketched by skillful artist than can be
seen from any elevated point in Anna
dor county.
When the highest point on the road
from Suffer Greek to Jackson is
reached, one is treated to one of the
prettiest sights ever beheld. Looking
westward we see the rich and beautiful
lone valley in all its loveline5s; to the
north is picturesque Suffer Creek
nestled in lovely little valley and sur
rounded by pretty hills; while below
you to the south is Jackson and Jack
son Gate with their nice prettily paint
ed cottages so suggestive OF sweet
home life.
And then the snow capped noun
tains to the east. 1t is beyond our

Burt Mt once suggested that they
should change places, although Ernest
had no idea they were doing so liter
ally when Burt gave up his seat.
The man who was preiudiced against
all pretty woman was still venting his
wrath upon Ernests wife. and in
manner Burt could not mistake, when
he took the place that seemed to be
ordained for him, as he afterward told
Ernest. He, too. prohted by tho
words he overheard, and drew from
them a lesson.
The two friends renewed their VOW
of friendship, each declaring that para.
doXical though it might appear, they
both felt the foreboding of something
like a calamity which had somehow
been avoided because of the conversa-
ton to which each had been an unwill-
ing listener. And to this day Ernest
does not know how near Burt came to

How Houses Should BE Lighted.

According to a French authority, NJ,
Trerat, who read a paper on the sub
ject at n recent medical congress in
Paris, light should not be admitted
horizontally, as by the ordinary win
dow nor vertically, as by the sky
light Our rooms should receive their
light at an angle Of thirty degrees. The
objection to horizontal light is based
upon the theory that its rays may be
contaminated by passing through tae
dust and vapors which escape frop
the soil In any case, II Is most i'm
portant that light should be freely ad.

A GENIUS oE FINANCE.

Bought a Typewriter, and Paid For Il
without Costing Him Cent.
''Do you see that young man over
there" said a man on a cable car, in.
dicatlng young man reading a paper
in the seat opposite. Hes one of the
greatest financial geniuses in the coun.
try If little things are any indication
of a mans character. He'll be a mil.
lionaire before long, or I'm no judge
of people"
The young mans appearance did not
seem to indicate that there was any.
thing out of the common about him.
and his admirers companion said so.
"Well, I'll tell you how l came to
discover his genius" said the man who
had spoken first "When I tell you
what he did l think you'll agree with
me. He secured a typewriter without
paying a cent for it, and without doing
a stroke Of work for it, and he did It
in 4 perfectly honest and legitimate
way, too. In fact, he actually made
money on the transaction. only
discovered how he did 1t by accident,
and I've been wondering at the genius
and simplicity Of the scheme ever
since. He was formerly employed in
the same office with me, and we both
had to do a good deal Of writing. One
day he came up to me and proposed
that we should hire a typewriter To-
gether.
1--WE can hire a typewriter for $4 4
month"; he said, and If we split it be-
tween us it will only cost us fifty cents
week each. We can do that all right,
because we wouldn't be using it at the
same time, anyway. If you give me 81
now I'll go up to the Office of one OF
the typewriter companies and have
them send down a typewriter I'll ar
range the whole thing so as to save
you any trouble
Il agreed to this and the young man
went off with the 50. Every month
paid him 50, and we both used the
typewriter with perfect satisfaction
About a week after the first payment
1 learned that my friend was not pay
ing anything for the typewriter, bet
was actually making a little on it, He
was hiring it out to man who only
used it occasionally, and whom he per-
suaded to pay him 6ety cents a week
for the use of it. / thought that this
was rather clever, but didn't realize
the full measure Of my friends ability
until a year had expired. Then
learned from a man who had called
to collect a payment on it that he had
agreed to buy the typewriter on the
installment plan, paying 81 a month
for it. The man was calling for tie
last monthly payment on it at the time.
and the typewriter IS now the proper.

to pay it off at 50 a month, and ne

THE OTHER BOYS WORK.

he fashioned it with all the skill he

And looked upon it and was glad, and lol
Another, when the happy cnild with

Rushed forth and battered down the lit

And trampled all its human semblance
out,
As if it had been something loathsome,
vile
And heralded his work to all about.
A poet wrote a harmless little song;
He fashioned it with all the art he

And sat and scanned it happily and long,
And dreamed of praise and fame, as

And ridiculed and tore it all apart,

1t is not many years since the threat
ened ivory famine produced that re-
markable imitation known as celluloid
which has been successfully employed
for a thousand uses. Now the imita-
tion has itself been initiated by a GU
rlous preparation Of potato pulp. The
inventor is a Dutchman named Kni-
pers. He treats the waste pulp, itself
a residue from the manufacture of po-
tato -four, with a solution of acid and
glycerine. The resulting compound
takes plastic form and is dried and
ground to powder This powder is
nodded into blocks with the aid of
water, very much as one uses plaster

turned bored, etc, and used for every
purpose for which ivory, bone, cel'

Turquoise From New Mexico.

ut is fact not generally known"
said Mr.. William B. Smith, Of Arizona,
that the greater part Of the turquoise
sold in this country and a large part
of that used abroad comes from the
mines Of New Mexico. The American
product, 1t is said, is gradually but
surely displacing the Oriental stone.
The colors of the American turquoise
are not only more to the taste of the
cOnnoisseur, but are more permanent,
the fading of a New Mexican turquoise
being very rare occurrence. Tur.
