with ten cents In money, shotgun.
a si Ut pouch and a ticket to Little
ROD, Ark. Bill Luke, as happy as a
lart, boarded west-bound train No. II
Tuesday to seek his fortune In the
West. Bill is dusky denizen Of the
West Point section and his profession
is farming. For two years past he has
titled the soil for Mr.. Martin Brymer.
and during all this time he denied him
self the Injuries Of life to save money
for the trip and spent his idle moments
dreaming of the time when the pile
would be large enough to take him
West. Bill came to town Tuesday to
start ON his trip. Never having ridden
on a train. the experience Of purchas-
ing n ticket was novel one. Mr.. Hen
derson Long, of the firm OF Long
Brothers, came to his assistance and
purchs sed the ticket for him. When
this was paid for Bill was ten cents
to the good. When asked as to what
he would do for something to eat, Bin
said he would do without until he got
to Little Rock. Bits wife and several
little Bills were left behind with Bilra
father-in-lnw, where they will live
till he returns with his fortune.-Gas'

Care of the Umbrella.

A former pcddler, now a rich insur-
ance man with fine clothes, stood in
a sheltered corner near the City Hall
during the last big storm and watched
the umbrellas go to pieces as the wind.
bowling around the City Hall, hit them
full force.
"Probably oil those umbrellas are
wrecks because of the lack Of little
OIL" he said. THAT'S trick learned
as a peddler. An umbrella is primari'
ly thing of Joints, and to keep 1t In
good condition the joints should be
oiled. found that nearly all umbrel
las break at the joints first. and why
shouldn't they? The joints are never
oiled, and yet are expected to respond
easily to sudden opening.
ITO get the best use out OF an um
brella the joints should be oiled frs
with coal oil. or kerosene, to clean of
the rust, and then with a lubricatinl
oil to make them work easily. Thu
treated, an umbrellas framework viii

Of thin boards two inches apart to re-

Side-Door Cars.

A new type of side-door passenger
car has recently been put into use for
suburban traffic on the Illinois Central
Railroad. There are twelve sliding
doors on each side OF the car, every
door being opposite TO a section OF
eight seats running crosswlse, with
aisles on each side Just within the
doors, running the entire length Of the
car. The opening and shutting of the
doors is effected by mechanism con-
cealed In the side walls, and under con-
troll of the trainman in charge of the
car. The doors can be opened or closed
all together or separately as may be
desired, 1t is claimed for the new cars
that they prevent crowding Of passen-
gers on the waiting platforms, while
they can be loaded and unloadeG with
great rapldity. Their carrying capac-
ity is also greater than that Of the
standard end-door car

Mica Deposits In India,

The peninsula of India is famous for
the excellence of its mica deposits. On
account of its delicacy mica quickly
suffers from the crushing effect of
earth movements, and the superiority
of the Indian deposits is ascribed to
the geologlcally long and perfect qui.
escence that the great peninsula has
enjoyed. In the Nellore district crys-
tails. or "books," of muscovite mica
have been obtained messing ten feet
across the basal planes. Usually they
are much smaller, and even in India
the stability of the earth has not been
sufficiently continuous to prevent the
destruction of large quantities OF this
delicate and valuable mineral.
