The messenger assured me no one

Would l come and superintend? I
agreed to do so, and gave directions
to have everything ready by the time

sembled at the patient bedside, look

worst. l coaXed the girl into the bath,
and, tucking up my sleeves, took add
vantage of the chance of soaping her
well. When she had sat few min
utes in the tub, she exclaimed: "Why,
it's quite NIGEL"
After she was snug in bed again,
knock was heard, and neighbor
put her head in, her face full of the
deepest concern. She said:
Il heard you poor Vasti was to
have bath. l have come to see if
she is still alive!"
Luckily the girl recovered in a
few days.

AFRAID OF WATER.
French Mountain People Who Have
an Antipathy to Performing
Their AbIutiOnS

Once in little town in the Ceven-
mes | was called to year-old baby;
noticing the irritated state of the
skin, | asked the mother if she ever
washed him, says a writer in the
Cornhill Magazine.
Washed him!' she replied, indig-
nantly, mo, indeed, madame! What
makes you think l would do such a
thing? He has always been delicate.
but it is not my fault, for 1 can
truthfully say l have never touched
him with water, hot or cold"
That the preceding generation had
an equal antipathy to performing
their additions l discovered one day
when letting my baby paddle in the
brook. dear old lady over 10, the
nurse of the village, watched him
with great interest; then she turned
to me and said:
There, now! and to think you are
not afraid of the little dear wet
ting his pretty feet! Why, l have
never put mine in water since 1 was
born!"
l was consulted for a girl who had
taken chill. l ordered a hot bath.

haps, that it would take three godfa-
theirs to equal one godmother of Miss
McKinney's tractiveness-weret three
miners, the now famous trio who dis
covered gold on the Anvil and who or
ganized the Pioneer Mining company
Messrs. Lindeburg, Lindebloom and
Brynteson.
The day chosen for the christening
was Sunday. 1t dawned radiantly
cloudless-a typical Alaskan summers
day. The little settlement where the
great event was to transpire awoke to
the realization that it was a day of
special import to the colony and that
it must be up and doing in order to re-
ceive the expected guests.
In recalling the experiences of that
eventful day Miss Mckinney says:
GAS the benediction was pronounced
this young man looked up, his blue eyes
full of baby wonder, his mouth
wreathed in baby smiles, and softly
cooed what seemed to us to be an
Amen or, at least, signified his au.
gust babyship's approval of the cere-
monies and appreciation of the honor
of being the first child ever christened
on Anvil creek"
Among the many gifts received by
Master Lampe on this suspicious &C.
casion were three staked claims in the
Klondike. given by the three godfa-
theirs. These claims were considered
nice little presents, the value of which
was problematical. A pleasant feature
of the gifts was the wide fields of
speculation which they afforded. Per-
haps they were not worth the paper
on which the deeds were written-per.
haps they represented a gold mine.
Other presents afforded apparently
just as much chance of surprising
realizati
The unexpected happened! Within
short time these little claims made
good" developing first good returns,
then great, and now have yielded con.
siderably more than 100000, all of
which belongs solely and indisputably
to Baby Lampe.
Almost n millionaire at the age Of
two years, in Master Fritoff Vladimar
Lampe who knows but that we behold
the coming Croesus of America!
When the claims yielded such rich
harvest, the parents of Baby Lampe
did not forget his godmother, Miss
Margaret Mckinney, but ordered made
for her necklace and pair of bangles
composed of little gold nuggets taken
from Baby Lampe's mines.

COLD STORAGE OF WEALTH.
WOnd erfuI Vault That New York Bill
iOnaires Use for Deposit of
Their Securities.

Many persons who have been
amazed during the past few days at
the holdings of stock certificates that
represent millions of dollars by some
of the magnates of Wall street have
more than once wondered where on
earth the stacks of certificates are
slowed away over night. Some of the
certificates are passed day after day
in their business deals from owners
to owners who have not strong I'M
foreground vaults. or do all firms on
the street have vaults above the aver
age kind, says New York corre-
spondent of the Pittsburg Dispatch.
Be that as it may, from this time
out the millions in bonds and certif-
Gates and other "street" valuables,
as well as valuables owned elsewhere,
in this city and other cities, are to
be slowed away in safe in deposit
company on Broad street which has
just been put in commission. 1t is
the biggest safe in the world. In this
safe are already deposited more Sc
curities than in any other one place
scented there by stocks and bonds,
Jewelry and silver plate. Here also
repose the wills of many of the big
gest milliOnaires in America. So vast
are the financial interests concerned
in this safe that the board of direc-
tors in charge of it is made to repre-
sent every faction of the financial
world. John ID. Rockefeller, j. p.
Morgan, the Vanderbilts, the Roth
schilds, the Harrimans, the Goulds
and other large interests have per-
sonal representatives on the board.
The door leading into the safe is a
tremendous piece of mechanism. 1t
is circular, eight feet in diameter and
"a inches thick. 1t weighs q tons.
The hinge of this big door weighs
1000 pounds. The door and vestibule
weigh so tons, and yet so nicely is
the door balanced on ball bearings
that a baby might close it with the
gentle pressure of its tiny finger.
The safe is SO feet long. 50 feet wide
nine feet in height. The walls are
four feet thick. The interior is fitted
up with 1000 boxes but 5000 more
will be added as they are needed.
Formidable as the mechanical appli-
ances for safety are they are not de-
pended on altogether. Day and night
men guard the big door. They pace
back and forth like soldiers on guard.

BREAKS THE RECORD
Coming Croesus of America Is Just
Two Years of Age.
Within That short Time Baby Lampe
Has Realized a. Fortune of Nearly
Million Dollars in His
own Right.

He is a record breaker-this young
man. Starting life literally without
a rag to his back, young Fritotf Nladi-
mar Lampe has within two short years
realized a fortune of nearly million
of dollars in his own right-an achieve
ment which many men Of TAore mature
years have striven all their lives to at
tain. True, it has taken the young
man in question his whole life to ac-
quire this wealth, but as he celebrated
his second birthday only the other day
it is thus easily seen that he is the
most precocious fnancier up to date.
Just two years ago, says the New
York Herald, young Fritotf Nladimar
Lampe-whose age at the time was
matter of no consequence at all, being
figured in weeks-was the hero of the
first christening party ever given in
the Klondike. The immediate seat of
the festivities was Anvil creek, but far
and near all through the Klondike re-
gon the event was considered one OF
much Importance and interest. From
camp to camp the word spread like
wildfre that genuine, orthodox
christening was to be held at Discov-
cry claim and the invitations were all
Immediately and joyfully accepted.

Forgotten Deiicacies.

The disappearance of certain birds

Wheatears, for example, were, and
still are, undoubtedly great deli

to be, to the ortolan of the continent.
The number of these birds to be seen
about the South Downs is still very
considerable. Ia old days it was the

the dandelions, it is easy to see that
there is connection between the
two. No matter how you have lived
through the winter, whether lavish

much that needs remedying, and the
remedy is sure to be at hand if only
