There Is an interesting story about
the introduction OF the peach into
America more than 200 years ago. In
Maryland there is an old estate called
Peach Blossom, which was the seat of
the historical Robins family. who
came from England. One Of the fam
lily, Thomas Robins, was great trav-
eler and roamed all over the accessible
regions Of the world. In Persia he
found the peach fruit then unknown
In England and America, and brought
back some peach stones which were
planted on the Robins estate. When
the trees blossomed the flowers were
SO much admired that the name of the
estate was changed from Arcadia to
Peach Blossom. A stone tablet once
gave the date Of the planting of the
peach stone, but it has disappeared In
the general wreck and ruin of the
place. the glories Of which departed
many years ago.--National Fruit

to pieces to crafty a scientific impulse
or laid upon shelf. And the children,
until the next periodical rain of costly
gifts descends, happily pursue their
games with the aid of the crude OBJ
jects which they have fashioned for
themselves out Of board, stick, a.
piece of string, or whatever else may
have been available in completing
some comprehensive plan.
Toys need not be meaningless in. or
der to be simple. They may be so con-
structed on simple, vital lines as to sug-
gest life, activity, strength. Why not
direct little attention toward securing
the embodiment of simple art princi-
pies in the toys with which the chill
dren are to live?
1t is significant that most children
find a keener delight in playing with
paper dolls than with any other kind.
This is but an added confirmation of
the fact that the imagination of the
child loves best a few direct lines that
it may clothe with contours on limitless
beauty and charm.

with objects that are as exact repro

these literal facsimilies of. things which
he sees around him.
We haunt the toy shops in search of
animals with real fur, little French

A plea for simple toys for children
is made by writer in The Craftsman,
from which we select the following
paragraphs and the accompanying il
lustration.
1t is a sad confession, but an inevi-
table one. that few of us succeed in
cherishing' in our hearts that boyish
freshness and exuberance that enabled
Stevenson to put himself in the place
of the child and to speak truly from
the depths of the child mind.

of the realm in which the little one is
king, we all seem bent, this Christmas
season, upon diverting him from the
spell of that land by thrusting him into

literally true that this era of happiness

the Manager Child, because it was Jesus
who discovered childhood. When rul-
ers and titled men questioned Him.
Jesus placed child in the midst of
them and said: "Of such is the king
dom of heaven" Socrates sneered at
the grief of a mother weeping for her
babe. If Plato suggested that every
village should select q distant hilltop
and build pen for the exposure of
unwelcome children; if Aristotle urged
laws making the drowning of sick and
weakly children compulsory on their
parents; If Seneca said, "We slay the
Worn-out OK and horse. and it is not
wrath, but reason, that separates
weak children from strong" if Cicero
rebuked his friend for grief because he
missed the dead babe, then every lover
of childhood must rise up to speak for
that Christ who took child in His
arms. whose love brnoded over the
child as the stars looked down upon
the little town Of Bethlehem, and who
sent through the ages this word, "Suf-
fer little children to come unto Me-
Jesus said, Take heed that We offend
not one. of My little children and
Their angels do always behold the
face of My Father" and hope dawned
for childhood. From that hour Jesus
disciples began to make life happy for
children.
They founded homes for the exposed
children who had been left to starve.
They founded schools for orphaned
children who had been cast off by poor
parents.

MINING PAYS

Mining pays better n better eacn
year. More and more common sense
is used in getting out the ore and bet
ter and better methods are constantly
being discovered for treating it. For
example, twenty-five years ago in
treating ore containing lead. gold and
silver, 20 per cent of the contents Of
the ore was lost. At present the loss
of lead ia about 5 per cent; of silver
less and Of gold nothing. Many #
the dumps of former times are now
being worker and are yielding as
great, and IN some instances greater
profits than the mines did when the
dumps were formed.
And these things make mining stock
an investment that is constantly grow
ing safer and safer.-Dividends.

ZONE CABIN LEASE

l.. NJ. HARDWOOD and Z. Lawrence
have secured a lease on one of the
claims in the Stone Cabin section
located by the Clifford brothers. tt
will be remembered that the last men,
toned made a strike of phenomenally
rich ore there a few weeks since and
that a rush to the new "diggin 50
followed it's announcement. The
ground secured by Messrs. Lawrence
and HARDWOOD is within $50 feet of that
find. 1t is their purpose to develop
their holding by the sinking of a deep
shaft which is in turn to be followed by
exploration at depth.
While in that section Mr.. Lawrence
located q number of claims at Oak
Springs and during the course of their
development opened up a 3-foot ledge
containing gold values of $40 and sill
yer values of 10 ounces to the ton.
