A hit of Cat History.

A great many years ago the people
Of Egypt, who had many idols, wor-
SHIPPED the cat, among others. They
thought she was like the moon, be-
cause she was more active at night,
and because her eyes changed like the
moon, which is sometimes full and ut
other times only light crescent, or,
as we say half moon. SO they made
an idol with cats head and named
it Pasht The same time they gave to
the moon, for the word means the face
of the moon. The word has been
changed to pas" and "Pus,' and has
come at last to be "Puss," the name
the most OF us give to the cat. Puss
and Pussy cat are pet names for kitty
anywhere now. But few think of the
name as given to her thousands OF
years ago and Of the people who then
bowed down and prayed to ber.

well-known lawyer Is telling Il
good story. about himself, and his cf
forts to correct the manners Of his OF
flee boy. One morning. not long ago,
relates the Brooklyn Citizen, the young
autocrat Of the office blew into the Of
fee and, tossing his cap at hook, ex-
claimed: Say, Mr.. Blank. there's a
bail game down at the park to-day and
| am going down"
Now the attorney is not hard
hearted man, and was willing the boy
should go, but thought he would teach
him little lesson in good manners
Jimmie he said kindly, that isn't
the way to ask favor. Now, you
come over here and sit down and I'll
show you how to do It," The boy took
the office chair and his employed pick
ed up his cap and stepped outside. He
then opened the door softly and, hold
ing the cap in his hand, said quietly
to the small boy in the big chair
please, sir, there is a ball game at the
park to-day. II you can spare me
would like to get away for the after
noon In flash the boy responded
why, certainly, Jimmie, and here is
30 cents to pay your way in"

The Cross Patch.


Once on a time there was a witch,
Who wasn't poor and wasn't rich;
She wasn't handsome, that l know,
For one day when | saw her go
A-riding past | said: "Oh, dear.
How can a person look so queer!"
Her back was crooked as the MON,
And as she went l heard her Groom
A silly song that seemed to say:
THE children are all good to-day.
Tomorrow maybe l will throw
My cross patch cloak DER Jane and Joe.
And while they whine, Mamma, NAM
ma,
III chuckle to myself, 'Ha, ha"
And folks will say, That horrid Jane
Is at her tantrums now again
And other folks will say they know
They cant do anything with Joe.
Then, lest some wise ones guess my
trick,
III puzzle them by being quick
I'll snatch the patch from Jane and Joe,
10 cast it over Glenn and Chlo
The friends in wonder then will say,
Our Jenny is real good to-day
Or Joseph seems different boy;
lie really is his mothers joy
But little Chic and Glenn beware;
Their naughtiness is past compare"
Now, boys and girls who would escape
This witch's ugly cross patch cape
Must get the fairy Laughing Fun
10 stay close by and never run.
Then when the witch with dark disguise
Approaches she, in great surprise,
Viii find her cloak too small by half

Electro Magnets.

The familiar horseshoe magnet is
made of highly tempered steel and
magnetized so that one end is a north
pole, the other south, or perhaps
more commonly known as negative
and positive. Once magnetized 1t is
always magnetic unless the power Is
drawn from 1t by exposure to intense
heat An electro magnet, however,
be made from any scrap Of soft iron,
from piece Of ordinary telegraph
wire to a gigantic iron shaft. When
Il current OF electricity passes through
an insulated wire colled about a soft
iron object such as a nail, bolt, or a
rod. that object becomes a magnet as
long as a current Of electricity is pass
ing through the coils Of wire or helix
4 coil Of wire in the form Of spiral
spring has stronger field than a
straight wire carrying the same cur
rent. for each turn or convolution adds
its magnetic field to that Of the other
turns: and by having the center Of the
coil Of iron. which Is a magnetic body,
the strength Of the magnetism is great
Iy increased-St Nicholas.

Must Have FAu0,

"If a woman hasn't a fad, there's
something wrong with her." remarked
an observer Of mankind. She's In
love, or out Of 1t, or her liver is out OF
order.
American girls are the greatest for
taking up new cults. Now, an English
girl settles down to doing one thing,
and sticks to 1t, and nothing short Of
an earthquake or dynamite explo-
sion will turn her out Of the way Of 1t.
But you just suggest to an Amer
lean girl that some new physical ex-
ercise will give her plump neck, or
reduce her hips or any other old thing,
and she will be nothing else for-well,
until the novelty wears off or some
thing else turns up.
Just now it's boxing Every box
ing master In town Is rushed TO death
with applications for instruction from
girls. Boxing, you know, is warranted
to do the impossible; consequently they
all want It.
But, then, after all. l suppose It's
just that variety and unexpectedness
about the girls over here which makes
them so attractive. You never know
where they're going to break out next. I"

LIFE WOULD BE TOO LONG.
Awkward Results of Universal Lon
xevity Are PrOphesfed.

Suppose man 80 years old, making
a good income from his business, were
to decide to live until he was 100 and
not to retire until he was 90.
The first consequence would be that
he would have the opportunity or max
ing much more money than II he died
at 20; next, that his children would
have to wait much longer for It, Now,
supposing him to have attained the age
of 80, the more money he takes out OF
his business the less there will be for
others to take.
His three sons, Junior partners In
the same firm, aged IS downward, and
his nine grandsons, aged 40 downward.
will find very little to take out Of the
business between them. The business,
in fact. would not "go round
Even more distressing would be the
case Of the family in which there was
no business out Of which an income
could be obtained The old baronet.
aged 100, would still be living at the
family seat, enjoying the income he
had inherited. His son, wearing on
to 80, and possibly still a great trial
to his parents. would be eking out
precarious existence on very little
more than he was allowed at oxford,
and for his part quite unable to make
his sons any allowance at all, much
less to tip his great gra andsons when
they went back after the holidays to
the rate-provided schools.
The sons and Yrandsons would have
to go into business? But into what
business could they go?
Possibly it might be found neces-
sary to compel person attaining the
age of 20 to give up his money and his
estate to his son and to live on a small
pension allowed him out OF the wealth
he had inherited or acquired; or posi-
bly, there might be rule that a man
on attaining the age of 40 might claim
complete control OF his fathers money
and estate, providing that he under
took to house his parents and grand
parents and to make them small al
lowance.
But even then not all the inconveni-
ences and uncertainties would be end
ed Even II man undertook at the
age Of 40 all those obligations and had
housed say parent. a couple of
grandparents and possibly two or
three great grandparents in number
OF $50 cottages on the family estate.
and were making them allowances
suitable to their respective ages. il
would yet be almost beyond his power
to prevent them from reasserting them
selves should they desire to do so. A
mans father. still in the prime Of life
at 20. might decide to set up in bust
ness afresh. in competition against the
old business he had just relinqushed
to his son; he might even, with his
more mature experience. cut out the
old firm altogether, and then all the
difficulties and inconveniences would
begin over again.-London Spectator

ENERGETIC MRS. kIPLING.
As a Girl She Helped scrub Floor of

When Mrs. Rudyard kipling was
young girl, she went out To Colorado
with her brother. Walcott Balestier,

mountain railroad town in the earlier
and rougher stages Of its history. Liv-

says the Philadelphia Bulletin.
Their daughter, Miss Thayer. and
Miss Balestier, became great friends,
and Mrs. Thayer used to tell in later
years how the two girls secured the
first Episcopal service in Salida They
wrote to the late Bishop Spalding In
Denver. who replied to them that II
they would secure a place for the ser
vice he would send clergyman. The
girls canvassed the town, but the only
place InpN cOulu ma lIlat WAS Sultdblc
was room back Of a saloon.
They rented this room. wrote the
bishop POSTED notices and did every
thing to insure good service. Late
the Saturday afternoon before the inn

down to the room. 1t had been charm
ingly decorated with mountain wild
flowers, an organ moved in and every
thing prepared for the service But,
alas. the woman who had promised to
scrub the floor had failed them. and
such labor was almost impossible to
get in the camp. SO Miss Thayer and
Miss Balestier, with rags and pals Of
hot water secured from the saloon
keepers wife. went down on their
knees and scrubbed the floor
Through their efforts an Episcopal
church was later established in Salida,
and Miss Thayer married its clergy

CHAPTER XXI.

The eighteenth Of September was
damp, comfortless morning, and Mailing
ford Park looked particularly desolate.
The sky was Of dull gray, and the rain
drizzled steadily all the day through.
Babette was busy in Miss Malling's
dressing room. 1t was half past nine
o'clock, and she had just returned from
seeing her mistress off by train. None
Of the guests were astir yet, and the
house was unusually silent, as 1t was
likely to be for some hors. The ball of
the previous night had been exceedingly
spirited, and was not concluded until
nearly o'clock, SO that the visitors
would not be likely to be astir very
early.
Babette was to join her mistress at
Charing Cross station with the luggage
at half past 2, and, though her mind
was full Of tormenting doubts as to the
days events, she went about her business
as methodically as though nothing un-
usual had happened. Tenderly and care
fully she folded up the elaborate gown
Of cream-colored satin, with its draperies
of thick costly lace, and its superb bou-
quets Of deep crimson blossoms, in which
Miss Mailing delighted the eyes of her
admirers at the ball. Very circumspect-
ly she placed the magnificent diamonds
and rubies, with which her mistress had
adorned her shapey throat and arms. in
their cases, and then packed them in
small oaken box with steel clamps. Then
she went round the room with her keys
and locked and strapped the travelling
trunks one after another. That done,
she sat down to wait, she knew not for
what
Captain Polling received a telegram at
quarter to II that morning which
filed him with surprise and curiosity.
IL ran:
AT all risks get to Bishopsgate
church in time to see a wedding fixed
for this morning, and obtain a good view
Of the brides face"
The telegram had been dispatched
from Bassillia, and he remembered the
name as that Of the nearest railway sta
ton TO the convent where he had found
his wifs's grave. Without knowing why,
be felt that be must obey the telegram.

the waves usually average about 30

 No. 10 s. Perry St.

There is no success which is half so sat fsfactory as that won by ones own lore sight and shrewdness. A large measure or succees is unobtainable by the average man of small income. It Is the outside investment which works while one sleeps and repro duces itself over and over again: that must do it for him. There Is no field of human results as mining. The gold mines which are paying from 25 per cent to 500 per cent in dividends per annum are counted hy the hundred No other industry can do this.
 The history of mining does not chronicle conditions such as are known to exist at the Capuzaya property. They are unique and amaze the most experienced mining men and experts.
 The stock of the Capuzaya Mining Com pany is as safe investment as first Inortgage on the most valuable real estate and 1t will pay ten times as much dividend. Nowhere can an investment be found com bining the elements of safety and extraor- dinary large profits Capuzaya does. Neither fire, flood, famine, or pestilence can depreciate its value.
