Mysterious Jevrharp.

A jewsharp IS placed at the mouth

moves his finger away and begins beat

the most marvellous manner.
In order 10 show his audience tina,

Opal Fossil OF . SHARK.

Since they were nrst discovered The
famous opal fields at White Cnffs, N.
8. W., have yielded many curious fos.
sils. particularly those of prehistoric
marine life. But the latest discovery
Is most extraordinary one, and will
prove Of the deepest interest to the
scientific world.
1t IL that of a fossillzed, or rather
opalized, member Of the shark family.
which was found on block No. 6, at q
depth Of thirty-five feet from the sur.
face. Tho Sydney press says that the
speciment measures 3 feet 8 inches
from the snout to the tip of the tail.
The body is in seven sections, the cir
cumference of the largest Of which
(the head and shoulder portion) is
eighteen inches; each section Is six
inches in length.
The deeply indented eye-sockets
show plainly, "and thin veins Of pur.
pie opal encircle the fish from tip to
tip" At the mouth these veins make
an oblong and clearly defined course,
though the continuity Is occasionally
broken. No particulars as to weight
are given, but as the fossil has been
sent to London these ond other mat
ters of interest will soon be deter
mined. 1t was purchased from the
finders by an opal buyer.

Chilian Miners Powerful,

Perhaps the greatest weights borne
for any distance on mems backs are
the loads of ore brought up from the
mines Of the Andes by the miners Of
Chilli. Darwin visited a copper mine
in a ravine leading from the main
range Of the Cordilleras, where the
work was carried on by such primitive
means that, though the mines had
been worked In the mountains for at
least two centuries, the water was re.
moved in some by carrying it up shafts
in leather bags on mems backs.
Sir Francis Head, when visiting q
similar mine, found that all the ore
was carried up to the surface, a YER
teal climb Of 450 feet, by the miners,
and that the average weight carried
was 250 pounds. This load was not
carried up a winding stair, but up
notched trunks of trees, set almost up
right, one touching another.
The food Of the Chilian miner, ac-
cording to Darwin, consisted Of ra-
tons Of sixteen figs and two small
loaves of bread for breakfast; for din
ner boiled beans, for supper wheat
crushed and roasted They scarcely
ever tasted meat

MANS LITTLE vANITIES.

Difference Il That w oman Does No
Try to Deceive and He Does.
Vanity Of vanities, all is vanity!
And If a man tries to conceal his little
vanities, does not vaunt them, does
not revel in them as a woman does.
and refuses to take 1t for granted that
he Is a vain creature, should 1t be ac-
counted unto him for Righteousness? :?
He Is vain all the same.
If short woman wishes to look tall
she will have high heels on her shoes
and 60 her way quite needless of the
scorn that is being hurled at her by
men who, are wearing high pads under
their own heels-within their boots.
This is just the point of difference.
A woman does not attempt to deceive.
a man does.
All the world knows that woman
wears a corset, thing of bone and
steel, but man pretends even to him
self that he would have nothing to do
with any such thing. He calls what
he wears band, although every year
1t grows wider, and is more carefully
shaped.
Nowadays the band must curve in
nicely at the waist and expand we'll
as it comes over the hips, where little
pads Of wadding are placed to accen-
tuate these points.
There Ia no end to the padding
placed here and there about his clothes
80 that he may look a fine figure
padding 30 cleverly arranged that 1t
would deceive the most experienced of
tailors themselves. The artificial build
ing up of military costumes Is almost
acknowledged.
Astringent waters for one bath, soft
eDing liquids for another, eau de
cologne by the quart and sweet-smell-
ing powders are to the man Of fashion
necessities for the morning tub. The
most costly Of new scents are freely
besprinkled over his person and about
his clothes and rooms.
Once or twice a week the coiffeur's
clever assistant, who arrives each
morning to brush his hair and shave
him, will stay to massage his face
and neck. A visit to the manicurist
is a regular duty, so that his nails
be delicately tinted and kept in fine
condition.
A mans fastidiousness is not all for
mere show, for his undergarments are
of silk and his vanity will induce him
to study complexion and suitability in
even the coloring Of the stripe that
runs through his bath robe.-London

Newport News, Va, July az, 1908.
Last summer while recovering from ill.
ness of fever, had a severe attack OF
In1ammatory Rheumatism in the knees,
from which I was unable to leave my
room for several months. I was treated
by two doctors and also tried different
kinds of linaments and medicines which
seemed to relieve me from pain for
awhile, but at the same time was not
any nearer getting we'll. One day while
reading paper saw an advertisement
of S. S. S. for Rheumatism. I decided
to give it trial, which I did at once.
After I had taken three bottles I felt a
great deal better, and I still continued
to take it regularly until I was entirely
cured. I now feel better than for years,
and I cheerfully recommend S. S. S. to
any one suffering from Rheumatism.
