Business for Sale

Some time ago it was rumored that
A. Ruckteschlder had sold his grocery
business to e. Reinhart & Co. This ru-
NOR was entirely without foundation,
as neither of the parties contemplated
any such move. Mr.. Ruckteschler has
decided to sell, however, and elsewhere
in this issue of the Silver State ad-
vertises to that effect. He has one of
the best locations in the city. and a
fine stock of resi- goods. He will
also sell his real property, including
the store. dwelling house and three
valuable lots.
The reason for selling is that Mr..
Ruckteschler desires to make an ex-
tended visit to his parents and wife's
parents in Germany, and does not wish
to leave the business here. This is an
excellent opportunity for anybody
seeking investment and a home at the
same time.

hi wool to Philadelphia to be sold.
A day or two ago he received word
that all of the shipment had sold for
high prices, and that his lambs wool
had sold for 20 cents a pound. This
is three and one-half cents a pound
higher than has been paid at any time
this season for wool of any descrip-
tion grown in the state of Nevada.
Mr.. O'Kane has fine lot of sheep
and gets his wool on the market in
i1st-class shape. He was naturally
much pleased at the results of this
years work, and considers the sheep
and wool industry to be in every way
satisfactory under present conditions.

A Paradox Explained.

Why does not man weigh a pound
more Immediately after eating pound
weight of food? A little reflection will
readily explain this apparent mystery.
During the process of mastication, de-
glutition. ETC.. certain muscles are
brought into active play. and the exer-
else of any muscle necessitates tenn
porary waste of its tissues. and GER
tain amount Of carbon is eliminated
and passed off during the course of the
meal. This loss. however, is trifing as
compared With that due to respiration
and perspiration. both Of which are
increased during the various operations
Of making Il meal.
The length Of time one may take to
consume Il pound Of food makes but
little difference to those losses. for if it
Is eaten leisurely there is but slight
Increase of respiration or petspiration.
whereas IL it is hurried through both
are abnormaliy accelerated. Hence by
the time the pound is eaten the con-
sumer has lost appreciably in moisture
and carbonic acid.

He Wac HI. Own Grandfather.

OF all genealogical curiosities the one
set forth below is probably the oldest
a singular piece of reasoning to prove
that man may be his own grandfather!
Here it is: There was widow (Anne)
and her daughter Uane) and man
(George) and his son (Henry). This
widow married the son. and the daugh-
ter married the father. The widow was
therefore mother Gn law to her hus-
bands father and grandmother to her
own husband. BY this husband she
had son DAVID. to whom she was, OF
course. great-grandmother. Now. the
son of great-srandmother must be
grandfather or granduncle to the per-
son to whom his mother was or is
great-grandmotller. but in this instance
Anne was great-grandmother to him
DAVID: therefore David could not be
other than his own grandfather.

Stewed Snapper.

"Stewed snapper" said the proprie-
tor of a restaurant that makes a special
ty of the toothsome dish, lis almost as
distfnctively Philadelphian as scrapple
and pepper pot Prepared by the same
formula as terrapin, with liberal sea
soning of sherry. snapper is quite as
palatable as the diamond back. provid
cd the meat comes from a young turtle.
In fact. | defy any one but an epicure
to tell the difference The snappers that
come to Philadelphia are mostly caught
in the muddy bottomed creeks that
flow into the Delaware up the Jersey
side, and just now they are coming in
very plentifully. The snapper is dlfii,
cult catch to handle. but the Jerseynen
know how to turn the trick and gel
them to market alive. They run in
weight from four pounds all the way
up to forty pounds. the smaller ones be-
ing naturally more tender and conse-
Guently better meat. Some few are
shipped TO Trenton and New York. but
most of them come to Philadelphia. -

Mythical as Thirteen.

Modern occultists maintain that the
number four plays quite as important
a part in mundane affairs as the num-
Der thirteen. and for the following rea-
sons:
There are four cardinal points. four
winds. four seasons, four rules for
arithmetic. four conjugations and four
quarters of the moon. Moreover, the
Olympiad lasted for four years, pack
of cards. is composed of four equal
parts. and Of four suits. an hour is di-
vided into four quarters. and most
pieces Of furniture have four legs. The
occultists even point out that every hu-
man being has four canine teeth, that
a fork has four prongs. that corpses are
placed between four planks and prison
ers between four walls. and that at
funeral the coffin is usually borne by
four persons.
