General Horace Porter. the Ameri-
ran soldier, once asked Ia Hung Chang
for his photograph for his daughter.
The Chinese statesman kindly com
piled with his request and, getting his
pnint pot and pencil. drew queer look
1ng figures up and down the portrait.
Handing It then to the general, he ex.
planned that the left hand column con-
tained list Of his titles. while the
right hand side bore a list of the posts
he had filed. When he reached home,
Porter gave the photograph to his little
girl, saying: Here's what you wanted.

A VAST SALT FIELD.
uow the Product Is Obtained In the
Middlc of the Colorado Desert.


Middlc of the Colorado Desert.
In the middle of the Colorado desert,
, little to the north of the Mexican
border and 264 feet below the level Of
the sea, lies field of crystallized salt
more than a thousand acres In extent,
presenting surface as white as snow
and beneath the MONDAY glare of the
pun so dazzling that the naked eye
cannot stand its radiance. 1t stretches
away for miles and miles about Salton,
Colo, an ocean of blazing, blistering
white.
Here daily throughout the year men
are at work overturning the great de-
posit with massive plows and scrapers,
getting 1t into great piles preliminary
to putting it through the refining proc
ess. The salt plows used to secure the
harvest are great four wheeled imple-
ments driven by steam and managed
by two men. The salt crust is thrown
UP in parallel ridges; then labOrers
with hoes work II to and fro In the
water, washing out the dirt prelip-
tnary to stacking it in mounds to be
taken to the mill.
Salt springs Ia adjacent foothills are
constantly contributing to the deposit,
and 80 heavily laden nre they with al
most pure salt that the plow has hardly
passed on before new crust has
formed in the furrow left. This fact
renders 1t unnecessary to operate more
than a small portion Of the vast de-
post.
AS may be supposed, work in these
nelds is performed under the most try
ing conditions, No white man can
stand the intense heat, and for this
reason the work is done wholly by
Japanese and by Coahuila Indians. OF
these the Indians are by far the better
adapted to the work, the Japanese per-
forming only one portion, sewing the
sacks in which the salt Is shipped. The
atmosphere, laden as it is with parti-
cles of salt, gives rise to a painful
khirst, and the only available drinking
water comes from single well. 1t is
warm and III tasting.
Beautiful mirages frequently appear
abov, the great salt field in the day
time, sky pictures of magnificent cities
end flower dotted, tree shaded fields.
The moonlight, too, produces won
drously beautiful effects upon the
great field Of cleaning salt. For sew
eral weeks in the year the thermome-
ter on the salt field averages 40 de-
grees, and the reflection of the sun
produces glare like that from fur

A GREAT WORRY CURE.
Common Sense II the Best Remedy
That Can He Prescribed.

That Can He Prescribed.
once asked a physician what cure
he could suggest for the worrying hab-
1t. II would prescribe common sense"
he said, "and II a man or woman
hasn't got a stock on hand and cannot
cultivate one the medical man ia pow
erless." This worrying nonsense grows.
The best means to cure IL lies in the
hands Of the woman herself.
II she will Just call little horse
sense to her aid, resolve not to borrow
trouble, to be cheerful and think upon
the right side Of things, she will live
longer and be able to retain her beauty.
Every woman has the strongest desire
to keep her good looks Why, then,
does she take tho course which is sure
to make her yellow skinned, dull eyed
and thoroughly unlovely2
The Englishwoman is greatly ad-
mired for her utter refusal to worry or
to be worried. Consequently she looks
young at fifty. Undertaking no more
than she can comfortably carry out
and firmly believing in the coming Of
another day, she does not procrasti-
nate, but simply will not let the domes-
tic machinery grind her down to Ill
health and an early old age.
She is frequent bather and regards
health as the prime factor of life, to be
looked after before everything else.
She sleeps nine hours and also takes n
nap during the day, arranging her
work In the most systematic manner.
Her little memorandum slip always
shows two vacant hours-they are for
rest. She eats heartily, but of the most
digestible food, and would rather have
a mouthful of good food and go partly
hungry than eat whole meal of
cheaper things.--Philadelphia Inquirer.
