The Turquoise Land.

Sinai was known as the turquoise
and' in very ancient times, and DR..
Flinders Petrie believes that 1t was
the first mining center in the world.
In his book on the subject DR.. Petrie
tells Of the various expeditions sent to
Sinai by the Egyptian government. At
the head Of the party was the ''com-
mander," or ''bearer Of the seal Of the
god," the pharaoh. The official staff
consisted Of masters Of the house of
metals" or assayers, scribes and sec
retaries, to make inventories Of the
output Of the mines Even more mod
ern were the ''devisers Of metals" or
prospectors. The working staff con
sisted Of miners and their assistants.
The commissariat had cooks, bread
bakers, water carriers and even doc
tor attached. The mines could only be
worked for certain period, from
January to May, which is exactly the
best period for archaeological work in
Sinai today. The miners lived in camps,
and the so called forts and camps
were really miners villages.

Wen Timed Puns.

a southern clergyman, an inveterate
punster, says that while he Is well
aware that puns belong to the lowest
order Of wit he Is seldom able to resist
the temptation to make one when OPP
pornnity offers.
On one occasion after preaching an
eloquent sermon be was met by two
friends, one Of whom began to praise
his discourse in enthusiastic terms.
When he paused for breath the other
man said, with a laugh:
well, doctor. can you stand as much
soft soap as that p
Indeed can II there isn't too much
He In It, returned the minister
quickly. & 53a
At another time he was present at
the marriage reception Of q young cou-
pie Of the name Of More. The occasion
was somewhat stiff up to the time Of
the minister's entrance, and he quickly
discovered the state Of affairs.
Madam" he said, with his radian
smile, addressing the awkward young
bride, show fortunate you are! There
are SO few people who can say with
truth, The More want the More
have.
The laugh which followed put the
company at ease.

The Old Great Eastern,

The last days Of the Great Eastern
were certainly sad, considering the pur-
pose for which she was designed and
the great work she did in cable laying.
For some time before she was broken
up on the mud Of the. river Mersey,
near Liverpool, she was on view as a
show ship. One firm of Liverpool
clothiers hired her for a season, and in
addition to using her for it's advertising
purposes made use Of her for catchpen-
ny shows. In the large cable tank a
circus was fitted up and performances
given at so much a head, while other
exhibitions Of the Coney Island type
were spread all over her deck.

Fixed Bayonets.

It is said that during the siege Of
Ladysmith in the Boer war the assault
column Of British, advancing In thick
darkness. climbed up an almost pre-
cipitous wall. Once or twice they were
family challenged. At last a Boer rec
ognized them and shouted to the sentry
to fire on the .'verdo mde rooineksv' AS
the crest was gained the fire. broke out
a few Of the attackers began to reply.
but they were stopped, and the voice
Of the commanding officer was heard
to give the order. Fix bayonets!'.
That there were no bayonets did not
matter. The men, taking up the cry,
rushed on the Boer gunners. who fed
at the thought OF the cold steel.

some little ah-remuneration in the
end"
Although it would be in line with
Elizabeth's quixotic ideas to do so''
said Toms wife, sharply.
Elizabeth was a standing grievance
with her sister In law Eliza beth, who
was supremely Indifferent to the value
Of money Eliza beth, tall and straight
and splendid, who preferred a self
supporting life in tiny fat to de-
pendence In her brothers beautiful
home, and who proposed to throw
herself away" on q fellow whose only
lack was that Of money.
She confronted them now indignant
". 1T is a shame!' she flashed, look
ing like an enraged princess, with her
flaming cheeks and heavy, red gold
hair, "a lonely old man begs for
affection. He freely offers us all he
has. Be it much or little, 1t is ALL In
return you weigh and appraise and
calculate. Oh she broke of, 81 am
ashamed Of you. Let us make him hon
estly welcome, whatever he brings. 2
And in that first day, while the
others held aloof. 1t was Elizabeth
who. In warm hearted, impulsive fash
ion welcomed the little old man en-
veloped in q shaggy greatcoat, who
regarded his own folks with shrewd
blue eyes which looked out rather
wistfuily from under the shaggy
brows.
On the second day Uncle Peter ap-
preached Thomas Coleman.

added apologetically.

He spoke at a great disadvantage
for he was constantly expecting the

then, one day, like a bolt from clear
sky, the storm burst.
The Ell Juarez mines were flooded!
The rumor started in the Mining Ex-
change when stock that had been $50
was quoted at N$25 a share; then the
reporters got it and the journals
Haunted great headlines Of Panic In
Wall Street," Ell Juarez Mines Flood
cdr Later the report was confirmed,
and by o'clock the shares Of the El
Juarez mines were not worth the paper

The old man to whom the mines had

worn hand, gave way to his grief with
the abandon of child.

Child he sobbed ST knowed they

tears flowed unrestrainedly down the
furrowed cheeks.
Disappointed, imbittered, almost mad
dened by the loss OF sorely needed
wealth just within his grasp, Thomas
Coleman broke the silence.
Don't worry" he said coldly. .'You
are not too old yet to find some suit

Uncle Peter looked up in astonish-
ment, then as the meaning of the cruel
words dawned upon him his face went
suddenly and pitifully white.

ously as the curtains parted and Eliza

the others, she took the old mans
hands in her young ones.

Never mind. There isn't much room

The Streets OF Peru.

The streets Of Peru. especially on
gala dnys or when they wear the spe-
cial dress Of some celebrat ton, are said
to be among the most picturesque in
the world In their narrow proportions
they resemble somewhat the streets OF
China, and the variety and contrast of
the colors used in decoration may be.
compared with the Chinese. There is.
however, q distinct Latin character to
the decoration, which lends them an.
atmosphere entirely their own.
