THE STEVENS COUNTY CAVE.

,CEVERAL parties from Spokane
~ have recently explored the Gard.
ner cave in Stevens county, 80 miles
north of Spokane, which proves to be
a great wonder, says the Davenport
Times. Its most remarkable features
are:
A "chamber OF wonders" 155 feet
long, 80 feet high in places, and 20
feet wide.
Huge pillars, delicately Auted and
of rare colors.
Stalactites, which give out clear,
musical tones when struck.
Clear pools Ct water here and there.
Terraced slopes, resembling frozen
waterfall.
An overhanging canopy with we'll
formed seat beneath, called "The
Throne"
A chamber named "The Cathedl al"
frescoed and festooned with glistening
gems.
From the trail may be seen a noun
tain to the west, which was deter
mined by the United States geological
survey party, who were re-establish-
ing the international boundary monu-
ments last year, to be over 5000 feet
above sea level, says a writer. This
peak is between six and ten miles
from the boundary, in Stevens county
1t is said that there are several monu-
ments on the south and west slopes
Of this mountain, which have the ap-
pearance Of aboriginal construction,
but limit OF tire precluded visit
there.
Carefully measured from entrance
to the lower end OF the main cave the
total length :, was found to be $50 feet,
with a total loss in elevation from
2,645 to 2,42O feet, or 225 feet, mean
grade OF about "a per cent.
This cave has many features Of in
terest and beauty. 1.-The first 600 feet
is.gorgeously ...draped and. festooned
with stalacitites and atalagmites in
many grotesque forms, the former
pendant from the ceiling, while the
latter rise from the floor. At two
points the main passage way is divided
by huge pillars, delicately futed and
of rare color, the first OF which is
about $50 feet from the entrance and
the lower one los feet further down,
while all between, along the sides
and ceiling, are stalactites of various
LENGTHS.

CONCERNING OLD MAIDS.

T UNTIL the last few years there was
" speaking generally-entirely
too much anxiety in the minds OF
many young women lest reradventure
in the distribution OF husbands they
should be left out. The improvement
has come with the expanding OF the
gainful pursuits open to women and
with tie better education OF women.
Now we seem in fair way to reach
that common sense OF stage where
even the uglist and least desirable
men will admit that there ore worse
things in the world than being an old
maid.
Many a young woman's life has
been cursed by this over.anxiety on
the subject OF marriage. Parents can
not be too careful in training their
daughters not to worry about hus-
band, but to wait cheeriully until the
right sort OF man comes along and
shows signs of SERIOUS intentions"
An old maid or an old bachelor may be
failure; but not such pitiable failure
rs q cat-and-dog married life or d.
vorce.
Besides, the girl who is too anxious
does not play the game with the ne
cessary cool head and steady hand.

dominant note, it means degeneration
in taste, talent, and intelligence.
Amount can not take the place OF
quality. Happiness and strength both
grow from proportion, balance, meas
ure, and purpose, and not from multi
plicity or size OF things possessed. The
fortunes, which are multiplying so
rapidly in number and size among us,
infiict upon their possessors test
from Which only men Of stamina
emerge without disintegration, says
Golfers. Necessity, epur at once and
guide, is furnished to some men by
their own character or talent; for the
ma ority it waits on custom or ex-
te,nal circumstances. Hence infinite
material choice means cropping, per-
plexity, ennui, seeking rest in whirl-
pool HE, seeking divorce rather for
change than from misniatiny, avoid
ing children, or relinquishing them
to hirelings, chasing pleasure every
where, learning helplessiy that 'pleas-
ure ever is at home," and that "life
without an object can not live"
Money should, however, multiply a
MANS real power and, like other re-
sponsibility, intensity his character.
This result will occur more often
when our rich society has been grant
ed a higher development by ripening
Time.
