All There But the Tail.

Dressed in the latest and most ap-
proved motor cycling costume, with Cog
giles all complete, the motor cycIist gaily
toot-tooted his way by Regent Park to-
ward the zoo. Suddenly he slackened,
dismounted, and said to a small, grubby
urchin:
Il say, my boy, am / right for the
zooT'
The boy gasped at so strange n sight
and thought it must be some new animal
for the gardens.

his tongue, but you'd ha' stood far

not made until yesterday morning. One room was found in disarray. A bureau drawer had been pulled out and it's contents overhauled. An old jewel case on the bureau and which had set there for fifteen years, had been car ried off
 That jewel case was a joke on the burglar. It contained nothing but two pairs of old spectacles and several hundred clippings of death notices, the doctor having begun several years ago the pleasant pastime of collecting death notices of acquaintances
 The theory is that the burglar had no light andwas unfamiliar with his surroundings He had evidently not discovered the jewel case until he had ransacked the first bureau drawer, for none of the rest of them had been disturbed. Finding the case, he must at once have supposed that his fortune was made and have hurried away with his prize before some one should come to take it away from him. There were three purses about the house contain ing each small sums of money but the aggregate would have been good wages for one burglarious nights work
 On Saturday afternoon the doctor noticed a stranger standing about the house and he thought the man acted as if he would like to break in. When he saw that he was being observed he ran across a vacant block and disap- peared.

He remained there for some time and suddenly he attracted atten- tion by falling forward upon the floor. He was picked up and put back into the chair when for the first time it was noticed that he was a very sick man.
 The police were called and the young man was removed to the city hall and made as comfortable as possible. He was almost unconscious. Dr. Beauchamp and afterward Dr.. Plath were sent for. Neither was able to say what was the matter

Death Was All Night Expected to Come to Young Man at the City Hall.

It was thought all night of Monday that William Knipschwer would die at the city hall, where he had been taken in the evening by an officer whose attention had been called to his helpless condition. Knipschwer, who has been in the city a couple of months, has been employed in the reclamation service. On Monday, ac- cOmpanied by another young man, he walked down to the river and went in bathing. When he left the water he complained of feeling bad and it

 It is explained that more comprehen- sive report is in preparation to be is- sued later, this being given to supply the demand for official figures at the earliest possible moment. There has been no attempt to furnish here the figures on the secondary supply enter ing the trade during the year, such as scrap, dresses, etc, and these figures are merely returns from every smelter and refinery in the country save one, though which one is not announced. The figures are not expected to corres- pond accurately with mine production though the variance should not be great. This report may be obtained by addressing tbe director of the U. $. Geological Survey only a few facts taken from it will be given here. The production of copper in the United States in 1907 was S6S ,996, ,491 pounds. From the record figures of 1906 this is a decrease of 4S,S09. .191 pounds. or 5.6 per cent, the largest ac- tual decrease ever recorded and the largest relative decrease since the American copper industry became i'm portant This is the first time since 1901 that the annual production has been smaller than that of the preced- ing year and the first time since 1872 that it has been smaller than that of the second preceding year.
 In the following figures, appOrtioned to the states in which the copper was mined, the total is made up of the fine copper content of blister produced and of the shelter output of ingot and anode copper from Michigan.

 The above are the figures on the four greatest producing states. The others rank for 1907 in the following order: California, Tennessee, Colorado, New Mexico, Idaho, Alaska, Wyoming, Ne vada, Missouri, Vermont, North Caro- lima, oregon, Washington, Virginia, Alabama, Georgia and Maryland, mak- ing the total of S6S,996,4 ,491.
 The production of refined copper of both foreign and domestic origin, in America refinerles, was 1,O79, ,O52, ,4O9 pounds as against 1,O32, 2,516,247 pounds in 1906
 The stock of refined copper on hand Jan 1, 1908, was 125,745,7996 as against l46, ,497,1S1 Jan. l, 1907.
 The report says the apparent con- sumption of refined new copper in the United States in 1907 was about 4S5,- 0OO, 900 pounds as compared with about
 5000 pounds in 1906.

LOST WEIGHT REGAINED.
Grip Left This Man With Broken down Nerves And Weak Stomach.

MT G. w. Castro, the well-known confectioner of S2l North Water street, Decatur, Ill.,, is grateful to Dr Will Hams Pink Pills for driving the finger ing effects of the grip from his system. He says:
 "For six years 1 suffered with ner- vous debility following an attack of the grip. was left very weak and run down and felt all out of sorts. My nerves were particularly bad and any little trouble in my business upset me and l could not sleep nights. At times my stomach would gorge and become as hard as a stone, causing intense pains, my appetite was poor and my liver constantly troubled me. My weight decreased from 16O to 125 pounds.
 q took treatment with two doctors and each pronounced my trouble ner- vous disorder but did not help me. I then tried Dr Williams Pink Pills and began to get better after using a few boxes. l gave them a thorough trial and was cured. gained weight until l now weigh 1S2 pounds and have been healthy ever since. The pills are a fine tonic and cured me after doctors had failed"

A gentleman in Connecticut took not long ago collie from the Lothian Ken nels at Stepney. The dog. after the fashion of its kind, soon made himself one of the family, and assumed espec- ial responsibilities in connection with the youngest child, girl, three years of age. It happened one day in Mo- vember that the father was returning from drive and as he neared the house he noticed the dog in pasture which was separated by a stone wall from the road. From behind this wall the collie would spring up, bark, and then jump down again, constantly repeating it. Leaving his horse and going to the spot he found his little girl seated on a stone, with the collie wagging his tail and keeping guard beside her. In the light snow their path could be plainly seen and as he traced it back he saw where the little one had walked several times round an open we'll in the pasture. Very close to the brink were the prints of the baby's shoes, but still closer on the edge of the well were the tracks of the collie who had evidently kept between her and the we'll, need not tell you of the feel ings of the father as he saw the fidel- ity of the dumb creature, walking between the child and what might oth- erwise have been terrible death.

Tt is often saidEit is no matter what man believes if he is only sincere. That is true of all minor truths whose nature it is to fashion a mans life. It will make no difference in a mans harvest whether he thinks turnips have more saccharine matter than po- tatoes, whether corn is better than wheat. But let the man sincerely be- lieve that seed planted without plough ing is as good as with, that January is as favorable for seed sowing as April,
 and that cookie seed will produce as good harvest as wheat, and will it make no difference? A child might as we'll think he could reverse that pom derous marine engine which, night and day, in calm and in storm, ploughs it's way across the deep by sincerely taking hold of the paddle-wheel as a man thinks he could reverse the action of the elements of Gods moral gov ernment through misguided sincerity.

RHEUMATISM AND DYSPEPSIA
Resulting From An Attack Of Grip Cured By Dr Williams Pink Pills.


 Mrs A. E. Wilber, of Bergen, Gene see Co.,, N. Y, is an enthusiastic ad- vocate of Dr Williams Pink Pills for grips after effects. She says:
 "I suffered for two years with the after-effects of the grip and was con- fined to bed for a greater part of one year. The grip left me with rheuma- tism in my legs from the knees, down and I could not walk without darting, fire-like pains. l had severe pains in my stomach and could not retain food. My legs and feet were so swollen that I couldn't find shoes to fit me and I couldn't stand the least pressure or weight on my limbs. I had bad cough, palpitation of the heart and ter rible sick headaches. I was sick so long that my husband had to give up his work to stay at home to care for me.
 "I had been under the care of doc tor for long time and was getting no help. had tried electricity and massage with only temporary relief.
 "One day my husband brought home some of Dr Williams Pink Pills and wanted me to try them. At first I was determined not to take them but consented after while. They helped me so quickly that was soon able to
