NEW JERSEYS GREATEST CLAY DEPOSITS.

: til an interesting volume that is about to be issued by the State
Geo.ogiss Henry B. Kummen. 1t covers the whole State thoroughly
regarding the deposits to be found.
The MOST interesting to the people hereabouts, however, is that
section referring exclusively to Middlesex county The extracts from
the repon, published in yesterdays News, gives the people some idea of the
deposits lobe found in this section Professor Kmmen says that this
immediate vicinity has the greatest clay lands in the State. This is not sur
pising, however, after one has made a tour through Woodbridge township.
Few people living hereabouts have any idea as the extent of these mines.
They are really worth going some distance to see.
There is no going down any shafts with a light on your cap, something
which always seems to be connected with real miners, but the clay miner
digs from the surface and sometimes enormous depths are reached. In
these great pits, with their solid walls of clay, the men are working filling
the little cars ON marrow guage tracks, pulled sometimes by mules, some
times by tiny steam engines and some are pushed by hand.
1T hastaken years to dig some of these mines, or enormous holes, if
you choose to call them such, and there is no signs of them giving out The
tenMon of RnnnaIy Shaving down the sides and so the opening widens.
1t has often been remarked that farmers who, by much diligence and
hard labor, managed to exc out a living by raising corn and potatoes, have
given up husbandry of late years and are now growing rich selling the very
farm land itself. 't
not the extent of the clay industry. Those little cars, which we're being
filled in the mines, carry the clay to the busy factories where hundreds of
men are employed transforming the raw material into articles of usefulness.
This cold, moist substance eventually finds its way into the lining of some
great city skyscraper or as n ornament t. a massive structure Or palatal
residence.
vicinity. There is no doubt but that the clay industries hold the centre Of
the stage throughout this section and is the life of trade. More men are
thus employed and their pay envelopes mean much to our merchants.

Perth Amboy did not buy the steamers to have them stored away. 1t was

Past experiences have shown that a steamer will not be needed often, but
1t should be on the spot ready for no one can tell when a fire is going to

let the people see that they have something for their money.

The Body Beautiful.

A brilliant writer said to me the 9TH
err day that the world seems to be re-
verting to the old Grecian love of phys.
ical prowess and admiration for the
body beautiful, says DR.. Richard Cole
Newton in the Medical Record. OF
course we are a long way from this
yet. Fancy our hollow chested, pigeon
toed women, with their square hips
and hour glass waists, dressed as the
Greeks used to dress. Fancy u aver
age business man, with his protuber-
ant paunch and skinny arms, posing as
a Greek hero. Sad as this thought Is,
there is room for encouragement. Our
people, both men and women, are i'm
proving in size, figure and carriage
and will continue to improve. Wheth-
er the general intelligence and mental
development will ever reach as high an
average among us as it did among the
Athenians is quite another question.

Brother Jonathan.

Did any of you little people ever
know where this nickname of the peo-
pie of the United States originated?
Well, one time during the Revolu-
tionary war, when the army was in
sore need of supplies and ammunition,
at a council that was held General
Washington demanded funds, which
were. however, unavailable. At length
Washington said in despair, "Well, we
must consult Brother Jonathan about
it," referring to Governor Jonathan
Trumbull of Connecticut. Now, it hap
pened that the governor was so sue
cessful in raising the necessary money
that after that when there We're any
difficulties to be met the soldiers used
to say. 'Go to Brother Jonathan" And
after awhile when the origin Of the
phrase was lost the expression still
was popular and is in use at the pres
ent day.

The patient was sent to Clarinda
about six years ago. He was violent

that some person vas continually shad-

During one of his lucid intervals Mil

number of incubators. Miller begged
leave to have charge of the work of

Freaks OF . Cyclone.

One of the strange freaks Of the re
cent tornado which wiped out part Of
the village Of Chappaqua, N. T., and
killed one woman was the burying Of
a COW and calf in the cellar of a barn
on the farm of Warren Tompkins.
which was RACED to the ground. says
the New York Tribune. The other
day when the animals were found
they were alive. The COW and calf
were under ten tons of hay and straw,
brick and other debris for five days.
The only injury the calf suffered was
the loss of its tail, which was cut off
by a big beam. When found the ami
mails were almost starved to death. 1t
took almost two days to dig them out.
Another freak of the cyclone was the
blowing away Of a solid silver knife
and fork from the house Of Robert
Marrow to the st. Elmo hills, three
miles away, where they were found
| stuck in the trunk of a big elm tree.

Mothers Hands.


Mothers right hand is Dorry. He helps
her as much as he can.
He'll be twelve years old when Christmas
comes. and so he is almost a man.
Dorry shovels the snow; Dorry fetches
the mail;
Dorry brings in he milk at night. in a
beautiful big bright pail.
Mother sorely would sigh for Dorry, II
Derry were from her reft,
But little Dick is the other hand. for he
does the things that are left.
When Derry has chopped the kindlings.
Dick speedily gathers them in:
When Dorry shoulders the biscuit board.
Dick carries the rolling pin.
Dorry's the knight of the market. while
Dick is the kitchen squirei
He'll fill the kettle n turn the cakes.
after Derry has started the fire.
Oh. mother would miss her Dorry. If Dor
ry were from her reft,
But little Dick is her other hand, for he
does the things that are left.
Oh. there's never a boy like Dorry, unless
it's a boy like Dick.
Mothers heart is seldom sorry. though
cares come fast and thick,
For Derry is good and loyal, and his arm
is strong and true,
And little Dick has a merry laugh and a
loving spirit too.
| So mothers right hand Is Derry. and-he's
dutiful and deft.
| But little Dick Is the other hand, for he
does the things that are left.

Pet Donkey.

When l was a boy l had a donkey
which was a great favorite. I could
make it lie down like a circus horse
whenever I chose, and stand up on its
hind legs with its forefeet on my
shoulders. It was so intelligent that
it could lift the latch and open a door
either from the inside or out. l have
many times known it to open it's stable
door. and, coming across to u house.
also open that door leading to the room
in which we had breakfast and push
its head between my brother and my
self and beg for a piece of bread or
sugar. 1t used to move its large ears
backward and forward in a very know
ing way and could calculate time with
wonderful accuracy.-Cassell's Little
Folks.

Now that mosquito time is here
a description of a newly invented mos
quito trap will be of interest, says the
Louisville CKy.) Herald. A mosquito
trap is a novelty in its way, it being
generally understood that human in
genuity did not reach the point of trap
ping this willy insect. The trap in ques-
ton is a box about a foot square and
made of plain wire screening, latticed
like a window shutter. The merit OF
the invention, however, lies within,
where there is a small automatic music
bt1x, which, when set in motion, makes
a noise similar to that made by a per-
son breathing in sleep. Around this
box is a gummy substance, which Is
calculated to hold and poison the insect
the moment it lights. The invention
Is based on. the theory that mosquitoes
are at acted to human beings by the
wheeling noise made when sleeping.
