BY careissly dropping a brick from
the window of his cell in the second
story of the county jail yesterday aft
ernoon. George Williams was discoV-

and il is believed that several other
bad men on the top tier were in on
the attempted break. 1t was just by

while she was at work shortly after
dinner and she promptly informed
Jailor Bell. The latter found the
brick on the east side OF the Jail.

When the Jailor entered Williams
cell he was apparently sound asleep.
He was aroused and the brick, which
had been badly chopped, was shown

One more proof that all is not gold
that glitters is found in the fact that
much of the gold lettering seen on
signs, and also much of the gliding Of
picture frames, has no gold whatever
about it. Among laymen the opinion
prevails that all such decoration re-
quires the actual use of gold leaf, but
the reality is different, and a substitute
that deties detection has been widely
used for some time. The exact effect
of gold is secured by using a leaf Of
either silver or aluminium under yell
low paint. The metal backing gives
the required luster, and the paint gives
the required color This method can
not be used in all cases. because the
paint is of peculiar quality and re-
quires putting on with an even thick
ness. For this reason 1t is generally
applicable only to fiat surfaces. Parts
of a gilded picture frame which are
nodded into waving surfaces generally
require genuine golf leaf to cover them.

Favorite Japanese Card Game.

A favorite card game of the Japanese
is played as follows: One hundred well
known proverbs are selected. each di-
vided into two parts and each part
printed on separate card The host
of the evening has the hundred first
halves, which he reads aloud. one by
one, the hundred second halves are
dealt to the other players. who place
their hands face upward on the "tata
NIL" or thick mat of rice straw. on
which they sit. AS the first half of
any proverb is read the holder of the
second half throws it out, or if he sees
1t unnoticed among his neighbours
cards seizes it and gives him one of
his own. The player who is first out"
wins. 1t is very simple game, but it
affords great entertainment to the
players, for the quicksigEted and keen
witted are constantly Selling the cards
of their duller and slower neighbors.
and this leads to much laughter and
many good natured sarcasms.-West

1t is generally understood that II
large percentage of the Chinese are
addicted to the use of opium. This is
a msconception. The belief that the
Chinese of rank and culture use the
drug is due to the prominence given
to the cultivation of the plant and the
manufacture of opium in the Celestial
empire. AS a matter of fact, a native
who uses opium is looked upon by his
superiors as we discuss and classify
our drunkards.
The idea that a pill will produce an
eXhilarating effect on the beginner is
also erroneous. One must be accus-
toned to the use of the drug to get
the pleasant effect. The first pipe to
an American produces nausea. Two
or three will make him sick. If he can
stand eight or nine of these pills" he
is apt to dream. but the awakening is
always an unpleasant reality.

Lime is one OF tie most dangerous OF
cargoes for Il vessel to carry When
1t catches fire, as it frequently does, in
spite of the greatest precautions
against the admission of water into
the hold. it is almost impossible to ex-
tinSuiSh it. Tie only method that ev-
er avails is to stop every crack with
soap. so that no air can reach the lime.
sometimes this will stop the fire, but
often these fires will burn for weeks,
till the vessel sinks beneath the water,

gether. When vessel with a cargo of
lime once catches fire it is sure death

with a cargo of this commodity caught
fire and was sealed up as tightly as
possible. The crew was composed of
the captain and his two sons. One day
the latter went to sleep on the deck,
and their father imprudently entered
his cabin, shutting the door behind
him. When they awakened and found
their father missing they supposing
that he had fallen overheard. sailed the
ship for home, quite unconscious that

where white Ants Are Useful.

A white ants nest is about the last
thing in the world one would expect to
be of practical service to mankind, yet
in Western Australia white ants and
their nests are put to variety of eco
nomic uses.
In the first place, the aborigines
sometimes eat the ants, and there are
even a few white residents who have
tasted them for the sake of experience
and say they are not bad. But it is
not habit with the aborigines to eat
the insects. They prefer to devour the
mold out of which the ants build their
nest.
Capital ovens are frequently impro-
vised by the Australian prospector out
of these white ant mounds. They make
solid floor, almost like cement, for
the settlers huts, and in the township
Of Derby, in Western Australia, they
have been turned to profitable use by
being rolled in as top layer on the
public roads.

The Calendar Calculation,

Caesars reformed calendar made the
year about eleven minutes too long
that is, the solar year began eleven
minutes earlier each twelvemonth than
the calendar year. In 1889 Pope Greg
DRY XIII. found that the solar year
had gained ten days on the calendar
year. He corrected this and to keep
the two years more nearly together or
dered that thereafter only centurial
years Invisible by 400 should be leap
years. This calculation is this: BY add
ing eleven minutes regularly to the
year, at the end of century the legal
calendar has had one more day than
the solar calendar. BY giving up the
additional day of leap year in three
centuriai years the legal calendar haS
at the end of three centuries nearlS
one day less than the solar calendar
This difference is corrected by having
an extra day in the fourth centuriai
year. The arrangement is so nearly
exact that the two years differ by only
one day in 1923 years.

THE USE OF LIME
Lime Not a Tertilizer-Advice From
the Ohio Experiment Station.

rsme Not N Fertilizer-Advice Prom
the Ohio Experiment Station.
Lime is absolutely Indispensable to
nlant growth, yet it is required in COM
paratively small amounts. Our cereal
crops for instance. contain about two
mounds of phosphoric acid and three
mounds of potash for every pound of
lime, while all soils except the clear
sands contain much more lime than
phosphoric acid and at least as much
lime as potash.
Lime, however, serves other purposes
than as simple plant food. One Of the
most important of these is the "orrec-
ton of acidity in the soil. When a soil
becomes acid clover will not thrive up
on it. and when this condition occurs
an application of lime may b. neces-
sary.
Lime performs still another impor-
tant function - liberating plant food
already in the soil. If little lime be
mixed with strong manure, such as
hen manure, an odor of ammonia will
become apparent. This means that
the lime is liberating the ammonia
from the manure and that it is escap,
ing into the air. If lime be mixed with
the soil similar action will take place.
If a crop be growing upon the soil it
may absorb part of the escaping am
monia, and larger crop will result,
but this larger crop is made at the ex-
pense of the soil stores Of plant food,
and if these stores are not maintained
by manuring or fertilizing the soil will
soon refuse to respond to lime, because
all the material in it upon which lime
can act has been drawn out, and the
soil is poorer than if no lime had been
used.
European farmers who have used
lime for many years have become so
convinced of it's injurious effect when
used in this way that they say cline
enriches the father, but impoverishes
the son." and it is customary in some
places to prohibit the use of lime in
leasing land.
When used as an adjunct to liberal
manuring or fertilizing lime may be
made to perform a most important
service, but it's use as a substitute for
manure or fertilizer means ruin to the
soil.

develop into great printers should re-
member this and exercise their inven-
tive qualities at every opportunity.

print a report of the board of trade of
his native city in the two languages of
tie country. German and Czech, and
the representatives of each national
ity strenuously desired that their
tongue should occupy the first of the
parallel columns on each page. The
wary printer got out of his dilemma
by printing one column upside Gown
throughout the book and arranging the
titles accordingly. so that each Ian
guage had a front column on every

Writing and Dictation,

The modern method of letter writing
composition through the agency of the
stenographer is having Il peculiar eff
feet upon the popular use of the Ian
guage. 1t must be evident to even the
noncritical observer that carelessness
and diffuseness of expression have be-
come a feature and fault of CORE
spondence, from the reproach of which
1t was quite free in the earlier days,
when pen and ink were directly en-
ployed by the individual to the end of
giving form and conference to his idea.
Probably when dictation under the
present system becomes more of a fix
ed habit and institution the human
mind will become so accustomed to it
that it will operate more rapidly and
as accurately with such assistance as
under the old plan in which the writer
only dictated to himself Yet to him
with whom pen and ink have Away
been potent solvents Of thought the
change involved in dictation must
bring with it a serious embarrassment
in the matter of adequately denoting
