induced the nurse, who is the strictest

tiful church just erected in Wilkesbarre.
When the girl returned her mistress
asked her if she hadn't found the
church fine one.
+ "Yes, ma'am," responded the girl,
sit is very beautiful
"And the singing" said the lady,
wasn't that lovely?"
"Oh, yes" replied the nurse, "it was
very lovely, ma'am, but don't you

When we came here there were

There are the mines here to
make camp. What do you think
Of mine that at the Ioo-foot level
they have cross cut it as feet and
average is $500 gold, free milling.
We have three claims. We got on
to a fraction that joined the Do
mingo No. ! on the north with a
3-foot lead that runs from wall to
wall $500 silver and 1850 gold
per ton, on the eas; is the Griggs
property that sold last week for
60. 900 90 and has 7-foot vein that
at the 75-foot level averaged 1850
gold and silver per ton, on our south
is the Chicago Bell and Milwaukee
two good mines, and on the west
of US is the Blue Jay extention
which is under bond for $4,000. 90.
Our fraction contains from 8 to 9
acres. A full claim here in Nevada
is Cook 500 feet.
The highest elevation around
here is Paridice peak which is 1900
feet. This district covers an area
of s miles wide by II miles long
and the best and riches mines are
not high up in the mountains. they
are out in a small chain of hills
about q miles from the main range;
in fact one can drive to most any
of the mines with a team.
There is all kinds of wood within
four miles of town-pinion and
cedar galore. Water is plentiful
here by sinking for il. One does
not have to go more than 80 feet
to get lots of water.
II is raining tonight for the first
time since the a4th of August
which was the first rain we had
had since May goth.
The Goldyke Milling & Mining
company will start work next week
on their Io-stamp mill. The build
ing will be built so that it can be
enlarged to a 5o-stamp mill at any
time.
Don't advise any one to eome out
here unless they are fixed so they
can live at least six months.
Yours as ever,

Grape-growers in the United States
may derive useful hint from pro-
cess AS yet unknown on this side of the
water by which grape-growers in
France are enabled to market fresh
outdoor grapes all through the winter
The method, which is a recent inven-
ton, Is both curious and interesting.
Bunohes of the finest grapes, when
ripe in autumn, are cut in such way
that to each bunch piece OF vine five
or six inches long remains attached.
From this piece the stem OF the bunch
hangs which is essential to the sue
cess OF the operation. A large number
of wide-necked bottles filled with water
are ranged In horizontal rows on rakes
In a cellar. In the open end of each
of these receptacles is placed bunch
of grapes--that is to say the piece of
vine-stem Is inserted into the mouth
Of the bottle and the grapes hang out,
side. The grapes do not touch the
bottles, but are supplied with moisture
through the vine-stem immersed in
the water In this manner Black
Hambhrgs and other choice table
grapes are kept fresh and perfect
through an entire winter.,-F'ield and
Farm.

to fifteen days after the vines are en-
tireIy dead before being dug. In many
parts Of Colorado the frost as yet has
not been sufficient to kill the vines aud
growth is going right along steady and
strong. In order TO become fully
seasoned and have the skin become
hardened, TO admit Of handling with
out bruising and rupturing, which
would make them subject to decay, the
spuds should remain in the ground.
The seasoning process in our dry soil
naturally destroys, to some extent,
their power ot generating heat when
stored, which II In excess, would like
wise induce rot and cause an endless
lot of trouble.

When God Consoles.

1t takes us much time to create light;
we must form companies and erect
machinery before we can turn the
night of our great cities into partial
day; but tomorrow morning, however
black the previous night may have
been, the Great Father of Lights will
illumine our whole nation in few
minutes, and make each wave of the
sea and each dewdrop of the lawn to
gleam with silvery sheen. God has
but to bid the sun accomplish his
course, and the world is lit up, and
the shadows flee away. How perfectly
the work is done! The illumination is
unrivaled in lavish glory. All our
means Of enlightenmenta are poor when
compared with the sunlight; and SO
scant that we must needs measure its
cubic feet and dole it out for gold,
while the Lord pours his infinitely
superior illumination in measureless
oceans over hill and dale, field and
city, gladdening the cottage as well as
the palace, and furnishing the beetles
wing as well as the eagles pirion.
Even thus our heavenly Father can
readily enough turn the deepest sorrows
of his people into the sublimest joys,
and he needs not to vex the sons OF
men with labor in order to achieve his
purpose of pity; his own right hand,
his own gracious spirit, can pour forth
fullness of consolation in a moment.
Rev. S. H. Spurgeon.

RANCH AND HOUSEHOLD.

Not a poundof dried or canned fruit
should enter the farmers home by way
of the grocery counter. Such stuff is
good enough for the professional man
and people who live in town, but the
farmer, the Backbone" of the nation,
should live ON better things. He should
have homegrown and preserved fruits.
When 1t is necessary to store pota-
toes in bulk Of hundreds or perhaps
thousands of bushels, necessitating
them to be placed in bins or large
heaps of from four to five feet In thick
ness, they should positively be allowed

Lying all around our path;
We are glad to leave the meadow.
Glad to gather round the hearth.
Yet each season brings its pleasures,
Blessings come with every day,

PERSIAN DISHONESTY.


From Highest 10 Lowest.
Eeracity Is scarce article In Persia,
according to the Rev. Napier Malcolm.
In his Five Years In the Persian
Town" he writes Of conditions In YeZd
rs follows In the Yezd bazaars prob
ably not less than one third Of the
ppccches made by Mussulmans arc
falschoods. One day II cook OF "A Euro
pean went to the baZnar and after the
usual haggling fixed the price Of some
meat at II krans for thirteen pounds.
but, said the cook, you've got your
thumb on the scales Did you think
retorted the butcher. TINT would
give you meat Mt thirteen pounds for
II krans unless | kept my thumb on
the scnlesT We had II neIghbor who
was considered II fnlrly respectable
man whose sole business was the forg
Ing Of seals.
But the fact TX TINT every class,
from the highest TO the lowest. Ia
thoroughly permeated by the leaven OF
dishonesty. A Mohammedan assured
me that truth speaking ana honesty
had nothing to do with religion. but
were purely II matter OF climate. In
that case said |, the people Of Persia
ought to speak the truth very we'll. for
one of the Greek historians who lived
before the Mohammcdan era declared
that the Pcrsians were famous for
speaking the truth but who does
not know replied the Mohammedan,
TINT the climate OF IA country changes
entirely every 1000 years?"
