First, tie boy of eight or ten Is sent
to the breaker to pick the slate and 9TH
cr impurities from the coal which has
been brought up from the mine. FROM
there he IS promoted ana becomes n
door boy, working in the mine. AS he
grows older and stronger ne is adj
yanced to the position ans given the
nav of a laborcr There he gains the
experience which secures him place
as a miners helper, and as he acquires
skill aud strength he becomes, when III
the height of his manhood and vigor,
full hedged miner
If 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 IA 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 miners helper, then
n mine laburcr, now a door boy, ana
when old and dccrcpit he finally re-
turns to the breaker where he started
as a child earning the same wages as
are received by the little urchlns VINO
work at his side. There is no lnc@n'
tive for ambition in the average min
cr's life. He cannot rise to places or
emlnence and wealth. Only l in ooO
can even be given place as foreman
or superintendent, and these are posi-
tions which few miners care to hold

There are microscopic creatures
which live in roof cutters and on the
bark of trees and are known as water
bears and wheel animalculn. II allow
ed to dry up under the microscope, they
can be seen to shriyel into sllapeless
masses, which may be kept for years
unintured 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 shell,
was fastened to a tablet in the British
museum and showed no sign of life for
seven years. when one morning it was
found crawling hungrily about the
glass case that formed its prison.

Justice John NJ. Harlan Of the United

at variance with those Of the city edi-
tor.
One of the reporters had written a
clever account of a man who had fallen
from the fourth story of Il building ana
ESCAPED wthoue serious injury. 1t
made story of about column Ill
length. With a proof Of the article in
his hand the Temporary editor came to
the city editor and said:
"Mr. Smith, please have this story
cut down. / can't see anything in it
that makes It worth that space
but it's the star story of the day
Mr.. Harlan" gasped the astonished
news man. II think it's a remarkable
story and we'll worth all the space CIV

would certainly have been remarkable

may be boiled in with the chocolate,

that the cream is stiffened with the
