A Lightless Lighthouse.

On a sunken reef $50 feet distant
from Stornoway lighthouse is a re-
marwable beacon which warns marin
ers with the help of a light which is
only apparent. The beacon Is cone
OF cast iron plates, surmounted with
a lantern containing glass prism.
The prism derives its light from re-
fractiug rays emitted from the light
house, and the optical delusion Is
marvellous. Mariners naturally sup
pose that there is a lighted lamp on
the beacon itself and many Of them
will not believe otherwise. But the
object OF a beacon is attained when
the navigator sees the reflected light,
which indicates the perilous rock be-
low. This beacon has been In use
more than half a century. and since
It was fixed in position others have

Second Thought.

A we'll known Brooklyn physician
was examining a class OF nurses who
had served their appointed time In
the hospital. The candidates filed past
him, and to each he addressed a ques-
tiOn calculated to show the nurses
efficiency. In one of the questions he
described the condition OF a patient.
and asked the nurse how much NOR
phine in her opinion, should be admin
istered 10 the sufferer.
Eight grains" promptly replied the
nurse.
The doctor made no comment, aud
she passed on. When her turn came
again she appeared greatly confused.
and said to the examiner: Doctor, |

last time. | meant to say that one
eighth of grain should be given 10

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE average la
bOrer is today living better than Queen
Elizabeth did in her time" said James
Wilson, secretary of agriculture, today,
upon his return from a months vacation
on his Iowa farm. He was discussing the
prosperous farmers of the west and the
high wages of the workingmen in the
east
Take the meat bills Of the laborer in
Washington today he continued, and
you will find that they eat meat three
times a day and they want the best cuts.
As a result the price of meat is away up.
While the farmers are producing more
beef every year, they are not producing
enough to meet the increase in pOpula-
ton. 1 don't look for the prices to de-
crease materially soon.
The secretary was asked If the western
farmers were really investing such large
sums of money in automobiles
There is too much truth in those re-
ports" he responded. THE farmer is out
of debt. He has paid for his farm, his
fences and his machinery. He has money
in his pockets and big crops continue to
come on. He is afraid to invest in eastern
securities, lest a year might bring trOu-
BILE there As a result he puts his money
in Injuries, instead of channels that
might give a return. Why, folks in the

body was eXhumed today. and it was
found that the skull was fractured on the
