Son Discovers Money Secreted In
Shop Where Eafher Worked


Shop Where Father Worked.
Jacob Moore. a young farmer living
one mile from Hagerstown. found 5000
in gold in the cabinet shop formerly used
by his farther. Benjamin Moore. who
died some months ago. 1t was believed
by the family that money was hidden or
disposed of by their father without their
knowledge. and that he had died without
imparting his secret TO anyone. He was
an expert worker in wood and when
young Jacob Moore was looking around
the old shop. he saw a carefully mortised
joint in the ceiling timber where there
was no occasion for it. An investigator
revealed perfectly fitting block of wood
dovetailed into the ceiling frame. and so
adjusted that it could be removed with
care andNreplaced intact When the piece
of wood was removed the young man dis
covered a pile of closely wrapped coins
Upon examination he found that there
was $1,000 in twenty-dollar gold pieces,
all carefully counted and arranged in
thousand-dollar cylinders. With the ex-
treme care and nice workmanship always
used by his father young Moore found
that the piece had been followed out of a
solid beam without marr:ng or defacins
any of the surface except the small open
ing. which had been so perfectly closed
with the dovetailed block.

HOW to Axoia nu.t

There is not nearly so much sweep
ing done as there used to be, as it is
so well known that in dust there is
likely to be many germs OF diseases,
especially If there is any one in the
family who has a cough. however slight
1t may be. But there are many house
wives who have regular sweeping days,
taking certain precautions. a good
plan is to wet newspaper and then
tear 1t up in pieces, scattering them
over the floor. Push them along in
front of the broom and they will alb
serb most of the dust.

there are some very clever limitations
in the market which will sotisfy most
women. Many cheap beads can be
made more elegant in appearance by
stringing them on platinum wire and
using gold clasps. 1t is the cheap cot
ton string and brass clasp which gives
more evidence of cheapness than the
