woman may be, she will have doz.
ems of men after her if she is good
looking.
They can't help it; they are alb.
solutely carried away by pretty
face.
A woman may walk the length
of the city and never notice wheth.
er or not she has passed hand.
some man
But do you think a man misses
any of the pretty faces he passesf
There are dozens of qualities
that woman places far above per-
sonal beauty.
A man will tell you that he plac-
es small value on beauty, but he
does not practice what he preach
es.
The handsome man is not by
any means the most popular type
of man with women.
There are many other types
that she infinitely prefers.
For example, take the kindly
man the masterful man, the strong
man, they all appeal to her more
than the merely handsome man.
There was a woman who married
a man absolutely for hisgood looks
He was vain. shallow, selfish, but a
young god as far as personal ap
pearanoe went. Her love for him
barely outlasted the honeymoon
There was nothing lovable about
him. She could not depend on
him nor look up to him in any
way; she could not even respect
him.
If she had married plain, hon
est, everyday man she would in all
probability be happy wife today
As it is, she is miserably unhappy
woman, with every illusion shat
tered, and no very exalted opinion
of good looks.
Fortunately the women who fall
in love with a handsome ..face are
few and far between.
We hear of hundreds of girls
who fall in love with handsome
stage heroes, but the heroes are
always performing deeds of valor
or enaoting some part that shows
them to be very brave and wonder
full, as we'll as handsome. It is the
character as much as the faces that
the girls admire, says an exchange
When woman says a man is
mice looking" she means that he
has an honest, kindly face, a face
that she can trust.
She is quite satisfied with that
sort of face and never envies the
sister who may have married
an Adonis.
1t has been pretty we'll proven
that the handsome men do not
make the best husbands.
They are usually to vain to be
satisfied with the admiration and
adulation of one woman.
The sensible woman is quite
content to marry plain good man
and leave the besuty where ne be-
longs-in the ranks of the bache.

When the long, drowsy summer

the roof, the buzzing of bees, the
f1uttering murmur of wind stirred

with dim sense OF mystery, and
half relationship, to the fnr off
plaintive piping of the frogs. and
being consciously lulled to sleepf
How many ever feel the delicious
pleasure of sleep, when half awake,
just enough conscious, to realize a
little, that one is blissfully drifting
into the realm of "Oare Charmer
Sleep, son of the sable Night,
Brother to Death in the silent
darkness born" And when aroused
in the morning there is deep sat-
isfaotion and enjoyment in spurn-
ing the mandate, and sinking back
once more to "Yet little sleep, a
little slumber, little folding of
the hands to sleep"
Is it not remarkable that being
as it ie, one of the most notable aud
important of all physiological pro.
oesses, sssleep has not been more
carefully studied, and Investigated
by scientists and medical menP It
is as essential as breathing, or eat
ing. though some have maintained
that it might be gradually dispens.
ed with, and the amonnt required
varies greatly with individuals.
Some need eight hours. some can
thrive on four; some must have all
conditions about them conductive
to repose, others, who are surely to
be envied, can go to sleep under
almost any circumstances, and are
able, much to their own advantage
when hard pushed, to snatch cat
maps in brieJ intervals of work.
A recent number of the Popular
Science Monthly has an article on
the subject, which contains some
interesting if not wholly novel facts
and conclusions: It is the posses.
sion and exercise of consciousness
wbioh demands the greatest efforts,
and neoessitates the relaxation of
sleep. It is not an entire cessation
of brain activity. but the brain suf.
fers most from the lack of it. For
repair work to the system it is ab-
solntely essential. Sleep comes
on, as the blood vessels of the brain
grow gradually less full they grow
normal again at wakening.-Cin

The Knocker.
BY E C. THURMAN.

The 'sKnocker" is an offspring
of Failure and Envy. He is an
only child. and like most "only"
children, generally spoiled. He
never reaches real maturity. Sue
cess in others hurts him like a
tight shoe.
When he grows up he goes in
to the laundry business, and
wherever he goes, he carries with
him lot of soiled linen and a
clothes line. Having no proper
ty of his own, and being too poor
to rent, he becomes "poachery
making his headquarters in the
Offices of other people. There he
sets up his tub, stretches his line
and remains till you interrupt
him with polite itatlon ID
come again sometime when you
are not SO busy.
The "knocker' always gets
business for the firm which does
not pay his salary. AS soon as
his own firm finds this out he is
retired without notice or pay.
Nobody wants his company. His
employment is dangerous busi-
ness policy. His words are with
out fruit. No one places any con-
fdence in even the good things
he says, for they are attributed to
sinister motives.
He is a business vandal, con-
tinually tearing down without re-
placing anything better; an un-
wholesome creature with a bad
heart, and eyes that are set so
close together that he can peep
through keyhole with both of
them at once. He can't look you
in the eye for love or money.
In the quadruped kingdom he
would be either a hyena or
skunk-or cross breed: Among
the birds of the air he would be
a cuckoo in disposition, with a
crows complexion, while as a
reptile he would be a rattlesnake.
He "does" everybody, relatives
included. Relatives are usually
his first victims because they are
decent enough to place some con-
fdence in him. He is the one
man who can perform that won
derfuI contortionistic feat of get
ting beneath himself. He is as
dangerous to community as a
leper let loose.
When you meet "knocker,"
don't patronize him. Don't listen
to him. Hit him in the place
where his brains ought to be, and
kick him where they are.-Copy-

 The property is situated about a quarter of a mile north of the town of Mccabc, and about zoo fee, in al. most inc same direction from the shaft now being sunk by the Triangle Mines company, from which so much rich ore is now being taken out.
 The claim where this rich ore was found IA an extension of the Little Jack mine, which K one of tho Litt' Jessie group. owned and operated by the Jessie Mines company. One shaft has been sunk on the ground to q depth of i2 fec, in which there is a good showing of free milling gold ore. Mir.
