PaIisade Watchman in Ecuador.

Pearsall, the. night Waterman, who
has been at Palisade for about
year. is a man. of extensive travel.
Years ago, in the earlier stages OF
South American development, he
went to Ecuador with American cap
italists to build telegraph lines
through the Andes. He tells many
interesting stories about the people
of that tropical country. At Quito,
the capital of Ecuador, he spent over
a year on construction work. rms
remarkable city, which is over 5000
feet above the sea level, is lighted at
night by the glare of active volea--
noes. which surround it on all sides.
While not violent, these volcanoes
are in such a constant state of erup-
ton that the light at night is most
brilliant, and one can see to read
easily. Mount Chimborazo, over TO-
600 feet high, is an extinct volcano;
Mount Cotopaxi, not so nigh, is act
i've, and lights up broad expanse OF
country at night. Another Pc
culiarity of Quito is that during the
day when the sun is shining, the
heavens look black instead of blue,
and the larger planets and stars are
readily vi-ible to the naked eye at
the hour of high noon.
There is now a railroad built to
Quito. but before that everything
in the way of merchandise was car
ried there by mule packs. For
lake in the mountains steamboat
was carried up by sections on the
packs of the mules.
Pearsall tells many quaint things
of the South American countries.

Valuable Hints to Women.

If you shut yourself away from joy
and laughter, of course you will grow
old and peevish.
Don't grow away from the young ,Peo-
pie; make them your friends; enter
into their pastimes.
If you follow these rules, old age will
come to YOU SO gently and gradually
that you will never be. conscious of its
inroads until some day you find that
you have grown old beautifully and
serenely, and that age is not such bad
thing after ALL
Nothing will age a girl in such a
speedy and unlovely manner as peevish-
ness and lack of vivacity.
Some girls of twenty look almost
as old as their mothers, and it is simply
because they are lazy both mentally and

Silver Spoon From Ecuador.

Mr.. Pearsall the night Waterman
of Palisade, has a silver table spoon
made from an Ecuador silver peso
a dollar-that is a wonderful piece of
workmanship. 1t was fashioned en-
tirely by hand. the bowl being ham
mered into shape by hollow in a
stone. Then the finish was done by
rubbing with fine stone similar to
a razor hone. The polish and general
finish are simply beautiful. 1t is a
great curio and could not be bought
for 500.

Don't grow old before your time,
girls; keep young in heart and body.
Life is beautiful; get all the joy you

once.
You can stave off old age for many
years if you go the right way about it.

Reviving the Daguerreotype.

Our fellow citizen, Mr.. w. M. Hol-
linger, who is a professional photog-
rapher with studio in Fifth ave-
nue., New York, has been devoting
considerable time within recent years
to reviving the old-fashioned daguer-
reotype. Mr. Hollinger is constantly
making experiments, and claims
many improvements over the original
processes in vogue for making these
pictures He is, also, under the i'm
preston that the daguerreotype is the
most perfect of all types of photog-
raphy, and that it is destined soon
to meet an almost unprecedented re-
vival
Louis Daguerre, the inventor, was
born in France, 1889, and died in
1851. It will thus be seen that pho
Biography as a science is really short
