About wildcat" Mines.

An eastern contemporary makes an
excellent showing of the folly of wild.
cat" timing investment, but, possibly
goes too far in the general denunclation
of the primary stage ofthe mine prop
osltion, big or little. Just where the
line should be drawn, or just what
should be justly termed "wildcat, " is
at times difficult, and where there Is no
clearly manifest tendency to fraud, or
sharp practice, it is sometimes safe TO
give the property the benefit OF the
doubt. 1t is very easy to call new
or unproductive mining property a
wildcat, on the assumption that 1t
can never be any thing else but a sink
for foolish Investment; but it Is not so
easy TO fairly or justly draw the line
between what may appear today to be
the widest of wildcats, or tomorrow so
good thing that the owners feel sorry
for the outsiders who own none of IT,
vi course II may be said: This Is only
begging the question. Every one
knows what wildcat Is. But do
they! The history of many great div.
dend-payers shows differently. The
Iomstock, Cripple Creek, the Home
stake, Tonopah and dozen others fur
nish examples OF how mistaken smart
men may be as to the probabilities Of
district. 1t were not well to be too
hasty todub mining property wild
cat unless its owners or manipu.a,nt-
exhibit wildcat" tendencies. These
wildcat" attributes lie more largely
with men than with mines. Mining

The Candle Fish.

One Of the piscatorial curiosities OF
the north Pacific coast. especially plen-
tiful along the shores of British Column
bia. is the fish known 10 Indians, whites
and half breeds as the candle fish. "
TO the scientists he IS the eulachon
(Thaleichthys paciticusl, and is highly
esteemed for two reasons. The fish it
self is about fourteen inches long. re-
sembles the smelt in general appear
ances and is caught in large quantities
by west coast fishermen diving the
months of February, March and April.
1t is the latest of all fishes, for which
reason large numbers OF them are
dried and smoked TO be used as warm
ing food during the long rigorous win
ters so common In that region.
Large numbers OF them are also run
through crude presses which extract
the oil This is preserved in skin bags
and used much in the same manner as
whales blubber is used by the Eski.
mos This candle fish gets its COM
mon name from the fact that when
dried it burns with bright white
flame until entirely consumed. 1t is
much used by the coasters" both OF
Columbia and Alaska either with or
without wick passed through its
body.

The First Measure of Time.

1t was the moon and not the sun
which first suggested to mankind the
circle Of the year as "a measure OF
time The sun exhibits no changes of
appearance. and his light obliterates
all the landmarks OF the sky. A lu-
minary which Is the same yesterday,
today and tomorrow might give rise TO
conceptions of perfection and eternity,
but beyond the alterations of day and
night ii could suggest to mems minds
no abstract measure of time. But with
our humble satellite it Is far otherwise.
The regularly recurring phenomena Of
new moon and full moon are too
marked to escape the attention of the
most obtuse and unrefiecting of saw
ages.
The motion of the sun may be COM
pared TO that OF the minute hand OF a
clock, sweeping on hour after hour with
out leaving much record of its compar-
atively vast journey. The progress OF
the moon, on the contrary, may be lik-
ened to that OF the hour hand, which
registers the movements OF its com
panion and resolves them into twelve
well defined periods.

MAORI rATToolNo.
rortures which the Women Undsr-
go During the Process.

English explorers and scientists have
brought back series OF remarkable
specimens of Maori tattoolng from the
Interior OF New Zealand. The most as
tonishing designs were found on the
faces of the women.
The faces and bodies OF the women
are so covered with these blue marks
that they look as If they had on tight
fitting chintz dress.
The instrument employed in tattooinS
TO obtain the deep burrows Is usually
made of bone, having Il sharp edge like
chisel and shaped In the fashion OF Il
garden hoe Another style is made of
shark s tooth.
The tattooing of the women Is COM
menced when about the age OF fifteen
or eighteen and continues until they
reach middle age. Most OF the masters
OF the art are professionals, who go
from village to village and are highly
paid for their services. The pattern
about to be engraved Is first outlined
on the face with small stick dipped in
powdered charcoal, after which the
skin Is gashed, and the coloring or pig
ment is introduced into the cut flesh
with a stick dipped into the liquid.
The coloring material used Is gener-
ally the resin OF a certain tree, which
is burned, powdered and converted into

Two views of the Same Question

A noted bishop in order TO point a
lesson in humility sometimes tells Il
story Of young clergyman whose first
appointment was to be an out of the
way and poor parish.
On his first sunday in this new sta
ton the young man as he looked over
his wretchedly clad and ignorant con-
gregation could not help saying TO him
self, with Il groan:
Dear me, what a dreadful thing 1t
would be if | should have to stay here
any great length of timer
At the end OF the sermon deacon
made prayer. To the young mans
horror one part of the prayer was a
benevolent hope that this ignorant, in
experienced, barren pastor that bad
lately come TO the parish might inn
prove and grow learned and fruitful In
good works, so that he would come to
merit being kept on there for awhile"

Sir Richard Wallace once heard the

"in company with one Of his own char

roaring" But this was years ago, when

The worlds need of the Bible and
the duty of meeting il is clear TO all.
Few have any idea how great is the
task and how it is being done.
First. The Bible must be translated
and there are hundreds of languages,
many of them crude and unspiritual.
Second. The translation must be
printed, and made into books, often
at great expense, only very small
part of which can be borne by the
poor and half-enlightened people.
Third. The books must be brought
TO attention and put within the reach
OF the people. This requires large
force of Bible sellers and colporteurs,
wisely directed.
II is a work essential to the success
but beyond the resources of the mis-

the man to turn the canoe ashore,

sions of the various denominations
working separately; and it would be
unfortunate for them to bring out
sectarian Bibles. if they could.
All Christian and business-like con-
siderations demand, therefore, that,
for giving the Bible itself to the
world, Christians of every name
should cooperate in special organ
ization, above and beyond denomina-
tional lines.
This was clearly foreseen in 1916,
and led TO the formation of the Ameri-
can Bible Society to serve as the
channel through which the Bible
lovers of America could pass it on to
the destitute, both in our own land
and throughout the world.
