 Several people from Marbledale vis- ited the camp last week and were most heartily welcomed and excellently en- tained. After viewing the numerous comforts and conveniences of the cot tage, Minor and the masculine con- tingent went out to fish while Mrs Warehouse rowed the ladies to the different camps only to be assured, with one voice, that her own little home was the favorite among them all. Returning to shore, the ardent un- lucky fishermen, who in spite of their efforts, had not captured a single fish, were summoned and all sat down to an appetizing supper which Mrs Clark and Mrs Morehouse insisted on pre- pairing.
 Just as the sun was setting in per- feet blaze of color, doubled by it's watery reflection, the visitors set their faces reluctantly toward Marbledale, declaring their intention to come again at the earliest opportunity.

SOLVING A PROBLEM.
The Green Country brakeman Who
introduced the saw BY"


Many years ago green country boy APP
piled to the superintendent Of western
railway for work and, somewhat against
the superintendent's wish on account Of
the danger to life and limb attendant upon
such occupation, was given place as brake
man of freight train.
On one Of his first trips il happened that
his train met another freight train at a sta
tion where the sidetrack was not long
enough to accommodate either of them.
The conductors were debating which train
should back up to a point where they could
pass when the new hand ventured to sug
gest that neither should back; that they
could pass each other by means Of the short
sidetrack If the thing was managed right
The idea excited good deal of laughter
on the part of the old trainmen, but the
boy stood his ground
We'll, how would you go about it2"
asked one of the conductors, confident that
the lad would soon find himself against a
stump
The boy took up a stick aud traced in the
sand diagram to illustrate his plan
Good graciousl" said the conductor. Il
believe that will do itl'
And il did do it. To-day every trainman
In America probably knows how to saw
by" two long trains on a short sidetrack.
but it is not so generally known that the
thing was never done until an inexperienced
country boy who became the manager of
great railway line worked out the problem

On the mantel Of the trustees room of

Gossaert, an artist of the early part of the

The whole structure of the clock has
been chiseled by hand and no duplicate

is richly gilded and the wings on either
side of the face which are in reality doors
to protect the face of the clock, are cOlored.

The Ring Of Cheops.

Cheops was the builder of the pyramid
which bears his name, and, as if to make
the structure perpetuate his deeds for all
time to come, the very stones and bricks of
which it is composed are stamped with his
name. Cheops lived nearly $500 years ago,
his great pyramid being an antiquity in the
days when the great nations of old were in
their youth and yet we of this twentieth
century can have the satisfaction Of looking
upon the very ring he wore s 0 proudly upon
his fngerl The hieroglyphics on the ring
are minutely accurate and beautifully ex-
ecuted the ring itself being of finest gold
and weighing nearly an ounce. The oval
signet bears the name of Cheops, which is
in hieroglyphics in perfect accord with the
stamp on the bricks of the great pyramid.
This remarkable antiquity was found in a
tomb at Ghizeh. It now reposes in the
museum of the New York Historical So
ciety.

Be Patient with Pussy.

If you want to train a cat properly, re-
member that pussy is not the stupid animal
pictured by common superstition Cats
certainly are not so intelligent as dogs.
Neither are they so sociable. But once they
get to know what is wanted of them they
are easibly induced to do it to the best Of
their ability Kindness and patience go
long way with cats. A little wholesome
correction is good for dog, but use a whip
to cat for one time only, even if ever so
sparingly, and its value as a trick animal is
destroyed forever Cats are simply bundles
of nerves covered over with fur, and even
an unkiud word or glance from any one
they love will cause them acute suffering
