CHAPTER VII.

CASTOR Vandeloup having passed all
his life in cities, found that his existence
on the Pactolus claim was likely to be
very dreary. Day after day he arose
in the morning. did his Office work. ate his
meals. and after talk with Madame
Midas in the evening went to bed at 10
o'clock. Such Arcadian simplicity as this
was not likely to suit the highly cultivat-
ed tastes he had acquired in his earlier
life. As to the episode of New Caledo-
MIA NJ. yandeloup dismissed it completely
from his mind. for this young man never
permitted his thoughts to dwell on dis.
agreeable subjects.
A whole month had elapsed since Mad.
anne had engaged NJ. vandeloup and his
friend, but as yet the Devils Lead had
not been found. Madame, however. was
strong in her belief that it would soon be
discovered, for her luck-the luck Of Mad.

A London editor once asked IN
American, man OF affairs, what his
country did with the Irish immigrants
who made so much trouble at home and
seemed to be content with their lot in
the United States.
How do you work the transforms
tion?" he inquired.
"Painlessly,' replied the American,
land without haste"
He took the editor to a public school,
where the children showed what pro-
ficiency they had made in several
studies. Then he requested the prin-
cipal to ask all the children Of for
eign parentage TO rise. Four-fifths of
them did 80.
The American turned to the English
man.

immigrants; we make them Ameri-

At the foot Of the huge mound of white
nulloch which marked the site of the
Pactolus Mine was q long zinc-rooftd
building, which was divided into two corn-
partments. In one Of these the miners

suits before going down, and here also
they were searched on coming up in order
TO see if they had carried away any gold.
from ;his room long, narrow passageway
led to the top of the shaft, so that any
miner having gold concealed upon him
could not throw 1t away and pick it up
afterward, but had to 90 right into the
searching room from the cage, and could
not possibly hide particle without be-
Ing found out by thu. searchers. The otber
room was the sleeping apartment of such
miners as stayed on the premises, for the
majority of the men went home to their
families when their work was done.
There were three shifts Of men on the
Psctolus during the twenfy-four hours.
and each shift worked eight hours at a
time
When NJ. vandeloup awoke next MORN
Ing at 6 o'clock the first shift were not
Jet up, and some of the miners who had
to 60 on at were sleeping heavily in
their beds. The sleeping places were
berths, ranging along two sides of the
room, and divided into upper and lower
compartments like those on shipboard.
CASTOR having reused himself natural
IL wanted to see where he was, so rubbing
his eyes and yawning he leaned on his ell
bow and took leisurely survey of his DO
sition.
CASTOR yawned once or twice, then
feeling disinclined for any more sleep, he
softly put on his clothes, so as not to
awake Pierre. who slept in the berth be-
low. and descending from his sleeping
place CROPPED his way to the door and went
out into tine cool. fragrant morning.
There was chill wind blowing from
The bush, bringing with it faint aromatic
odor, and on glancing tlownwards he saw
chat the grass was wet with dew. The
dawn was burning redly in the east, and
the vivid crimson of the sky put him in
mind of that sunset under which he had
landed with his companion on the
Queensland coast.
He was near the mine by this time,
and hearing some one calling to him he
looked up, and saw Mcintosh. There
was a stir in the mems quarters now, and
he could see the door was open and sew
eral figures were moving rapidly about
while a number of others were crossing
the fields. The regular beat of the ma
chinery still continued, and the smoke
was pouring out thick from the tall red
chimney, while the wheels were spinning
round in the poppet-heads as the mine
slowly disgorged the men who had been
working all night.
Mcintosh came slowly along With bis
hands in his pockets and q puzsied looA

Miss Helen Gould and Mrs. Russell
Sage are often seen shopping in New
York City, and they never would be
taken for two of the richest women in
the world. They generally walk from
shop to shop, enjoying looking at the
window displays, and take the same
delight in buying as though either of
them was not able to give check for
the entire store and hardly miss the
money.

Dignified, mature women and 'over
80" are more in demand now than ever
before in the business world. Bark

ployers are beginning to realize that
the average girl of Is is incompetent
to be intrusted with their confidential
business, and the mature woman, is,
consequently, asked for when they are
seeking help.

In China the women bind their feet
and do other foolish things because the
men desire it, and their chances OF
marriage would be next to nothing If
their feet were large. In America
women do foolish things. but they set
the standard, which the men obe,ffently
admire. Whatever his womankind
thinks pretty, the American man sub
scribes to, and it seems that either
one or the other must play foolish
part.
