Trick With a Piece of Cord.

Take a piece of cord about two yards
long. hold the two ends with the thumb
and index finger of the right hand and
form the figure shown on the left side
of our Illustration on the table. The
task is to pull the cord off the table
while another person is trying to pre-
vent 1t by placing the index finger on
any spot inside the figures formed by
the cord. You may be certain that any
one will select the part Of the loop
marked with o. When we now pull
the two ends of the cord. it will slide
past the finger that is trying to pre-
vent 1t.
Let us start over again.

Wisdom of a Stork,

On tree close to house, within n
short distance of the river or canal.
there was stork's nest, with young
ones. The roof of the house caught
fire one day, and though the flames did
not actually reach the tree, the heat
became scorching. So the mother stork
flew down to the water got into 1t and
drenched her breast; then, returning
to her young, she spread the mass of
cool, wet feathers all over them. This
she repeated over and over again, fly
ing to the river, going down into the
water, and returning, her plumage
drenched with wet. And thus the nest
was saved, and the tender nestlings
were preserved alive until the fire had
been got under control and all was

c-sot Herring Machine.


Very clever is a Swedish inventor
named Ekenberg. who has constructed
n machine which takes herrings as
they come from the net, sorts them
into four sizes recognized by the trade,
scrapes off their scales, cuts of their
heads. splits, cleans and washes them
inside and out.
The machine does all this automatic
ally. and turns out 10000 herrings an
hour.
One of the big floating herring facto-
rles which go out from GotebOrg to the
herring banks is to be equipped with
the astonishing apparatus, which ought
to effect n revolution In the price or

What a Boy Can Do.

What a Boy Can Do.
These are some of the things boy can
do:
He can shout so loud the air turns blue;
He can make all sounds of beast and bird
And thousand more they never heard.
He can crow or cackle, chirp or cluck,
Till he fools the rooster, hen or duck.
He can mock the dog. or lamb, or COW.
And the cat herself can't beat his
meow"
He has sounds that are ruffled, striped or
plain;
He can thunder by like railway train,
Stop at the stations breath, and then,
Apply the steam and be off again.
He has all of his powers in such COM
mand,
He can turn right into a full brass band,
With all of the instruments ever played,
And march away as a street parade.
You can tell that boy is very i'll
II he's wide wake and is keeping still;
But earth would be-God bles their
noise!-
A dull old place if there were no boys.

How To Make Trans.

In GibsOn's Camp Life in the Woods
and the Tricks of Trapping" published
some years ago, the following effective
traps that can be easily made are de-
scribed:
mouse trap may be made with a
bowl and knife blade. Put piece
of cheese on the end Of the blade of q
table knife. Lift one edge of the bowl
and put the knife, standing on its edge,
under 1t, allowing the bait to be about
an inch and half beneath the bowl
The odor of cheese will attract the
mouse and he will find his way under
the edge Of the bowl, and very slight
nibble will tip the blade and the bowl
will fall over on the prisoner.
A thimble may be used In place Of
the knife. Force the cheese into the
thimble and put the thimble under the
bowl with the open end inward, allow
ing about half the length of the thin
Bile to project out of it. The mouse, in
trying to get the cheese out of the
thimble, will cause the bowl to fall.
IL tllt lllllllDle ne lOO Sllldll 10 allow
the mouse to pass under the edge of the
bowl put piece of pastboard or fiat
chip under the thimble.
To make Il fly trap, take tumbler
and half fill it with strong soapsuds.
Cut circle of stiff paper which will
| exactly fit into the top of the glass,
and in the center of the paper cut a
hole half an inch in diameter. A slice
of bread may be used in place of the
stiff paper. Smear the under side of
the disk with molasses before insert
ing Flies will find their way down
ward through the hole, and once below
the paper their doom is sealed. In
their efforts to escape they will fall
into the soapsuds and speedily perish,
| BY setting a number of such traps In a
room 1t will soon be rid of the pests.

Little Tonopah is the name of a
new discovery owned by Ed. Knapp,
Roy Sunderland and A.. G. Cushman.

c. D. Van Duzer, the popular cand-
idate on the fusion ticket, got cold feet
on the pneumonia scare and quickly
took his way for pastures new.
A damphool informs the Reno Jour
nal that the pneumonia epidemic that
is prevalent here is caused by the dust
storms. There hasn't been such a
storm here for four months. Take an
other, Gotwaldt, and the stars shining
will be the next cause Of the malady.
The Tonopah Mining Company Of
Philadelphia must at once build a rail
road into Tonopah, conduct q water
system into the camp and erect a
large reduction plant to reduce the
great output of the mines and district.
The shipping Of the ore from this camp
Is the work of a child. The company
has the greatest mines here in exis-
tence in the mining world to-day,
A great many Of the teams have
been compelled to retire from the
freighting business, owing to the fact
that it,is no use TO ship ore to the rail-
ROAD as all the smelters are flooded
with Tonopah ore. Over 81. 900, 900
in ore is piled up on the dumps here
and there are hundreds of millions to
be extracted.
Another mining deal was consum-
mated Wednesday that may mean
much for Tonopah. The ground in
question is situated about -four miles
south of town and is owned by Reavis
& Nelson. The locations are known
as the Little Butte and the Yellow As
ter, the rock assaying $50 in gold.
James Young has taken a bond OF the
