Sunday Newspapers Real Use


One copy of the Sunday Post will
furnish more warmth than an over
coat. Several sheets of paper, pinned
to the inside of mans or boys vest
before putting it on, and another part
of several thicknesses worn under the
vest wnen going out into the cold.
will take the place of an overcoat to
the poor man who has none, and will
furnish as much warmth.
Many poor families have not had
bed clothing enough in winter to pro
tect them from cold during extremely
cold nights. Such families can make
themselves perfectly comfortable by
spreading three or four newspapers
between the scant bed clothing they
have. They wiz be agreeably sur
prised to find that the papers are
equal to the heaviest blanket in ex-
Guiding the cold. If people generally
understood the merits of this simple
remedy. and practiced it, there would
be less sickness and fewer cases of

language for Busy People.

Several examples of the busy mans
language have lately been overheard.
'How is your wife?" inquired man.
"She's influencing I am afraid" was
the laconic reply. This economy of
words seems only so far to be applied
to various maladies; but later, no
doubt, such expressions as "We
theatred last night" and 81 tailored
this morning" will become common
enough.-Tbe Tatler.

A.. EUROPEAN PRACTICAL JOKE.
All Right In Theory, but Somewhat
Dangerous in Practice.

All Right In Theory, but Somewhat
Dangerous in Practice.
Here is a practical joke which is
now causing much amusement in
Europe. As you walk along a street
with some friend say to him: you
see that man in front of us? Well,
I'll bet you IS that I'll knock his hat
over his ears"
Your friend will naturally accept
your wager, and all you have to do is
to step up behind the unsuspecting
man and hit his hat such blow with
your fist that it will come down over
his eyes. Ten to one he will begin
to fume and swear like a trooper, and
while he is struggling to get his hat
back into its former position, you
must pull your own hat down over
your eyes. just as though someone
had subjected you to similar treat
ment
AS a result, when he turns around
to attack you. he will conclude that
you, too. have been insuted by some
one, and the next minute both of you
will be looking in every direction for
the ruff1an who has damaged your
rats and disturbed your temper
Then you will condole with each
other for a few minutes, after which
you will rejoin your friend and de-
-mand the IS you have won.

Another Duel Story.

Mark Twain's duel story, told recent
ly, recalls another in which the duel
was also fought with pistols Five
rounds had been shot and no one even
scratched. A conference was held by
the seconds, who decided that honor
had been satisfied, and it was sug-
gested that the contestants shake
hands. One of the seconds remarked,
"That is quite unnecessary. Their
hands have been shaking for the past
five minutes"

A Lament for Spring Poetry.

What a pity that the really pretty
spring poetry has gone out, killed by
newspaper ridicule; and that in its
place have come only the labored at
tempts of the funny man! When your
eye is caught by neat phrase at the
beginning of an effusian you know too
well that it is only preparatory to a
sick joke about housekeeping time, or
mosquitoes, or hand-organs-Bo Boston

pIaz DOING Good to Mexico.

All over Mexico President Diaz Is
pushing vast works of public improve
ment. Railroads especially are being
extended, and it is expected that ere
long Chicago and the City of Mexico
will be but four days apart. Gen. Diaz
is now 72 years old, but never rests
from his self-imposed task Of modern
izing the sister republic.
The man who borrows trouble pays
" 1t back in liberal installments to his
fri ends.
Whenever we lift another mans
burden we gain more strength to carry
cur own.
Love, like genius. is not an integral
part of character; it is a gift, an in.

AS a rule of life, one finds that the
truth lies somewhere between first i'm
pressions and final decisions

A smeItinq Proposition.

the broken condition of the surface to
its present depth.
A Smelling Proposition.
From present appearances the ore
will be a smelling proposition. While
the lower grades can be handled at
profit by the cheap method of concen-
tration, occasional punches of free
milling gold ores should be encoun-
tered.
A Mining Proposition.
AS mining proposition, it is a good
one an. worthy of extensive develop
ment. 1ne veins are true assures in
gneiss and granite, while the gangue
in the veins is true porphyry. Above
the tunnel level the iron is oxidized,
and evidently the gold and silver is
associated with the galena or lead and
copper, making it an easy proposition
to concentrate and smelt.
Tunnel Proposition.
As a tunnel proposition, this has a
double advantage over most tunnels
that have been driven. for the reason,
first, you are always on vein which
will at least pay part of the expense
of the driving, and, second. you are
prosecuting all veins having an east
erly trend, which seems to be the
course Of all the large and best veins
of that section.
