LITTLE THINGS.

The longer / live" observed the
cashier of a bank downtown, "the
more / realize the Importance of little
things. Here is case in point" he
continued, referring to a letter he
had just received. "A few weeks
ago | had two callers in my office,
one an excitable elderly man, big
depositor, and the other the presi-
dent of a manufacturing concern and
the writer of this letter. This man
ufacturer left, and soon afterward
the excitable man discovered that
some one had taken his hat. He
stormed about the place until one of
the clerks suggested that perhaps the
manufacturer had taken it by mis-
take. The excitable man demanded
his address and started out to hunt
him down and give him "a piece of
his mind
"The other day read a letter from
the manufacturing concern and was
5ft7gs 5nfctfs mar or my exc1taDIe
caller as vice-president. My curios-
ity was aroused, and I made some
inquiries. Now | learn that the ex-
citable man was SO pleasantly re-
ceived when he called for his hat
that his anger cooled at once. Then
he got to talking about the manu-
facturer's business and the money
he was making. A few days later
he invested heavily in the concern
and was elected its vice president.
And all because of that little mis-
take about a hat"

A READY PREACHER.


Frederick the Great, being inform
ed of the death of one of his chap
lains, man of considerable learning
and piety, determined to select a sue
cessor with the same qualifications
and took the following method of
ascertaining the merit of one of the
numerous candidates for the appoint
ment: He told the applicant that he
would furnish him with text the
following Sunday, when he was to
preach at the royal chapel. The
morning came, and the chapel was
crowded to excess.
The king arrived at the end of the
prayers, and on the candidate as
cending the pulpit he was presented
with sealed paper by one of his
majesty's aids-de-camp. The preach
er opened it and found. nothing writ
ten. He did not, however, lose his
presence of mind, but, turning the
paper on both sides, he said:
my brethren, here is nothing, and
there is nothing. Out of nothing
God created all things" And he pro-
ceeded to deliver a most eloquent
discourse on the wonders of the Gre
alton.

A WOMAN's SUCCESS.

Embroidering baby clothes was my
first financial venture. | was a very
ambitious housewife and wanted
money for some new things for the
house, so l began by embroidering
little sacks, for which | charged
$I.5o. For the more elaborate ones
received So. White broadcloth
coats with large collars brought So,
and at the end of a year the amount
footed up to $500. The work was
dainty and fascinating, and my
friends and acquaintance were quick
to take advantage of the opportunity
to secure hand wrought pieces for
their wee tots. bought a pattern
of the size for the age of the baby
and followed the directions given
with it for the making. My custom
ers furnished their own materials,
which relieved me of any outlay in
money. AS the articles made were
all white, they had to be kept spot
less and required extreme care in
the handling.-Ladies Home Jour

for great coach excursions to st. Louis via Penn
sylvania Railroad. on account of the Louisiana

cursions have been fixed at such low figure
that they afford those of limited means an OPP
portunity of seeing the Worlds Fair at an ex-
ceptionally small cost. The unusual success at
tending the first Pennsylvania Railroad excur-
sion indicates that these will be very popular.

coaches of the most modern pattern will be run

Philadelphia, Harrisburg. Altoona and Pitts
burg directly through to st. Louis, with ample
stops for meals at convenient hours. Each train

Perhaps the first mine in all the

of zacatecas in the Santa Rosa as

memorial it has been an adage among
miners that the best mines have been
located by accident. Prospectors
have been known to discover lode
through the kicking of a piece OF
metal from an unknown ledge by
their mules hoofs. Cripple Creek
was discovered thorugh the merest
accident by Stratton; but it remained
for a woman, Mrs. V. M. Clement,
to discover a rich deposit of tur-
quoise, reputed to be the only one IN
Mexico, in the Santa Rosa mine,
while searching for pretty stones on
the dump of the Prospect. !,

AGES OF BIRDS.

Small singing birds live from eight
to eighteen years. Ravens have lived
for almost a hundred years in cap
tivity, and parrots longer than that.
Fowls live ten to twenty years. The
wild goose lives upward of hun
dred years, and swans are said to
have attained the age of 300. The
long life of birds has been interpret
ed as compensation for the great
mortality of their young.
