THE BUSINESS FACULTY.


Among u certain chain of mountains
there is a deep, dark abyss known as
the Cave of the Winds. For many
years the mountaineers would LEAD
travellers to the mouth, bid them lis
ten to the loud rumbling and horrible
screeches within, and let them go away
wondering and unsatisfied.
a boy trapper observed the curios-
ity of the strangers, and constructed
a ladder by which they could safely de-
scend into the pit.
The boy charged for the use of his
ladder. The number of visitors in
creased. The cave became one of the
popular show places of the mountains,
and the boy had a thriving business.
1t is the man or woman who firstsees
where the ladder is needed by the pub
lie, and brings it, who makes the dis
tinguishing success in the worlds mar
ket places.
\ publisher in New York was asked
the secret of his triumphal career in
trade. 1T occurred to me-" he an

were working too hard, and that, nat.
urally, amusing literature was what
they needed as a relief from the in
cessant strain. published only cheer

A poor widow in a New England
town, some years ago, perceived the
growing anxiety among Americans to
trace their ancestry, and foresaw that
the establishment of such societies as
the Sons and Daughters of the Revolu-
ton would increase it. She offered her
services as Il genealogist, to trace fam
lily lines in III records, reports, ct
cetera. There are now a large number
of persons thus employed, but she was
the first to see the need of the ladder,
and her success was proportionate t
the demand for it.
This Shrewd apprehension and quick
action in trade is the same faculty
which, in a higher degree, makes great
discoveries and inventors. Dogged
industry will keep a man safe in his
path; but this acute perception helps
him to climb above it. 1t usually comes
to him at birth. But the sight of the
mind can be quickened by training.

HERE AND THERE.

If your horse does not masticate
his oats, mix a handful of dent corn
with it. He will not swa1loy the corn
whole, and will then chew it all.
"A cow can not give you a fine lot
of rich milk unless she has something
to make it of. She can't make it of
skin and bones and frost-bitten
grass.
The soil is like a bank deposit.
One can check out until the deposit
is exhausted, thereafter checks are
not honored. He who would always
be in a position to draw on the bank
must continue making deposits.
1t is estimated that u bushel of
Urn fed to hogs will make ten
pounds of pork. Therefore, if corn
is worth 70 cents per bushel, the
pork must sell at 7 cents per pound
IT somebody has lost money in the
process.
The main point with early vegeta
bles is to force them forward as rap

final success depends on this rapid
development as in having the plants
started early. and the result justifes

A S a spring medicine Peruna is a
u never failing remedy. 1t cleanses
"A the blood through digestion, and
gives tone to the whole system by in
creasing the nutritive value of the
food. Spring fever" as it is some
times called, which produces a tired
out, sleepy feeling, and inability to do
much mental or physical work, is the
result of a sluggish digestion.
The great popularity that Peruna
has is due to the fact that in all such
cases it at once corrects digestive de-
rangements and enriches the blood by
purifying this very important source
of that vital fluid.
Mrs. J. E. Finn, so East High street,
Buffalo, N. Y, writes:
"a few years ago I had to give up
social life entirely, as my health was

CHURCH LIGHTHOUSE.
Lantern in steepIe of st. Philips
Church Suides Mariners Into the
Hnrbor of Charleston.

The onlN church in the world, so
far as is known, that is also a light
house, is St. Philips church, Charles
ton, 5. c.
St. Philips, which is one of the old
est churches in America, is known as
the Westminster abbey of South Car
%olina," because within and without its
walls so many distinguished men lie
buried, including John C.. Calhoun.
The history of the old church is close
ly interviewer with that of South Car
DINA, and many of the celebrated
events in the history of the province
are connected with it.
1t is one of the sights of Charleston,
and strangers are always taken to see
it and shown its graves and monu-
ments.
The most remarkable feature of the
old church, however, is the fact hat
lis lofty steeple serves the purpose of
a lighthouse and is used to guide the
seafarer and mariner safely into the
port of Charleston. The use of the
steeple as a lighthouse dates back to
1894, when the United States light
house department succeeded, by dint
of repeated efforts, in inducing the
vestry of the old church to allow a
lantern to be placed in the upper story
of the steeple, to be used as a range
light for vessels entering the harbor
through the j%etties at its mouth.
The light used is very powerful and
is placed at an altitude of about 1875
feet above the ground, so chat it is
easily visible 80 miles at sea. Ships

making for Charleston harbora al night
always keep a sharp lookout for St.
Philips light, and as soon as they
sight it get it into line with the bea-
con on Fort Sumter and then make
a ~straightway run for the mouth of
the j%etties and up through them into
the harbor of Charleston.
The light is attended by the old sex
ton of St. Philips church, T. j. Riley,
who has occupied the position of sex
ton for more than 80 years. He has
never failed in his duties, and, rain or
shine, he mounts the high and narrow
winding staircase of the old steeple
every evening at sunset and lights the
beacon in its lofty perch. His limbs
are feeble now, for he is 20 years old,
and the climb is a long and stiff one.
St. Philips church steeple is consid-
cred one of the handsomest, archi-
tecturally in the world, and always at
tracts the eye of strangers entering
Charleston from the sea by its COM
manding height and artistic proper
tiJns.
During the civil war it shared, with
St. Michael's church steeple, the rath-
or unenviable distinction Of being the
chief target for the swamp Angel
and other federal guns on Morris Is
land that were trained against the
city. Both steeples, however, escaped
with slight damage. and although ter
ribly shaken up and shattered by the
