The Veranda.

An ordinary veranda is, perhaps, the most
procurable and practicable place to sleep
out, but here one meets difficulties due TO
the situation of the house, such as dust
and want of privacy, from the too great
proximity Of the street or road, and the in
evitable noises of early morning hours. The
second-foor veranda, not often to be found
anywhere except in health resorts, where
it has been evolved of late to meet the
needs of invalids, is much preferable to the
usual piazza on the ground floor, as 1t OIL
fers more privacy, freedom from dust ana
more security from Intrusion for tlmld per-
sens. Ideal sleeping-out places of this
kind are built out from second-story
room, and on them the comparatively We'll
patient can sleep at night, or the bed-rldden
invalid may spend the entire time out OF
doors and in close proximity to family and
friends. The bed can be moved out at Will
on this little structure, and the patient
can step at once into a room heated when
necessary, to battle or dress at any ume'
or to get warm if chilled.
These second-story sleeping-out verand as
can be built a comparatively small cost and
attached to almost any country house, ana
the consumptive, who for any reason can
rot leave home, can do much to arrest ana
cure the disease by equipping his house
with such an out-of-door sleeping place,
which will enable him to live at rest out or
doors the year round, for in winter one
step will take him into a warm room
where he can battle and dress in COM
fort. Even delicate and predisposed IN
dividuals who have to work for their
living during the daytime in stores
and offices or small towns could do much
to avert consumption and to keep their
health by the adoption of such sleeping
out place, at least during the spring, sum-
mer and fall months.
The window of an ordinary second-story
room is cut down to the floor and replaced
by door: the floor of the little seeping-out
porch is supported by wooden brackets at
tached to the sides of the house; the two
ends are boarded up with thin boards, with
or without glass casing, supplied with dark
shades; overhanging shingle roof com
pletes the structure, and by its overhang
prevents the rain from beating in directly

When the late Secretary Hay was
crossing the Atlantic in 1865 on his
way to Paris to serve as secretary OF
legation he told the following anecdote
to one of his fellow travellers. On APP
plying for admission to the bar OF
Illinois he was summoned to appear
before a committee of prominent Chi
cago lawyers to be examined as to his
qualifications.
He went to the place appointed and
found the committee assembled; but
for long time they took no notice of
the Young candidate, but continued
talking vigorously together on various
subjects. At last one of the lawyers,
turning to him, said:
"Mr. Hay, what would you do II a
client should come to you with such
a case as this?" and proceeded to de-
scribe very deliberately a complicated
legal case.
~ should ask for a retaining fee OF
fifty dollars" promptly replied Mr..
Hay, land tell lin to call to-mor-
row."
Mr.. Hay, you are admitted" said
the gentleman, and with hearty
laugh from all present the proceed
ings closed.

New Active volcano in Nevada.

A volcano throwing off molten lava
has been discovered in Nevada. The
volcano Is in Rye Patch, Humboldt
County. Although that section has
been traversed for years the crater has
just been found. The men were in
search of cattle when they came on
the stream of lava, and, tracing it to
its source, found the volcano.

One Of the largest and most famous
trees in England is the COwthorpe oak,
thus named from the town wherein it
stands. 1t Is gradually decaying and
disappearing, although it still puts
forth green leaves every year. Like
other giant trees in a state of decay,
its trunk seems to be sinking into the
ground. About 200 years ago it was
70 feet in girth at the ground level,
and so feet high. Now it is but little
more than 81 feet in girth at the
ground, and only 81 feet high.
China is so well suited by natural
conditions for the production of silk
that even the most Anticipated and IN
scientific methods cannot deprive her
Of the first rank in that industry. In
Japan everything connected with the
silk business is scientifically regulated
No silkworm is allow to hatch unless
the egg has passed a scientific inspec
ton. The mulberry trees are cultiva
ted on scientific principles. Similar
methods are pursued in other countries
where silk is produced. But in China
these things are almost entirely disre
garded, and yet China keeps near the
head in production. Her undevelopeC
resources In this industry are so enOr
nous that Mr.. Anderson, our consul a.
Annoy, predicts that when China adopts
slnodern methods she will give a new
turn to the silk business of the world

The Gold Supply.

Ask the geologist if the treasure of
the hills is being exhausted. and he will
tell you, that in spite of the eager quest
for wealth which has prevailed since
the California discovery. there are still
regions which are but little known to
the prospector. While in some. starva-
ton or death from thirst awaits the
adventurer who dares to penetrate them
without sufficient food and water. there
are others which are comparatively &C
cessible and which may yield as great
riches as any of the famous bonOnzas
yet struck. Only recently one of the
most famout gold fields was entered for
the first time by a prospector. Not until
1900 was Tonopah discovered. yet today
it is known throughout the world. and the

Butler knew little nothing about ge-
oIogy or mining. but he had heard In
dams tell stories about traces of gold they
had seen near a spring known as Tono-
