CHOICE MISCELLANY
A Wizard With figures.

DIR. G0ttfried Rueckle is his name,

United States see him-he's wonder, !"
writes an American from Austria.
He Is master at memory stunts.
and his mathematical acrobatics are
marvellous. / was one Of the small
audience before whom he showed
these. First he asked seven people
to put several numerals in q row, and
these seven rows were read off to his
secretary, placed one under the other
on slate, where the doctor could not
see them, making a square of 40.
Then the doctor ratified off the figures
forward and backward, diagonally and
spirally. The square with it's forty
nine figures seemed to be at his grasp
at any point. Multiplication. division
and subtraction with large groups Of
figures seemed to be fun for him. His
solution Of problems in cube and
square root were like saying 1, 2, B.
all accomplished mentally. l don't
know which of his feats was the most
remarkable, but when he had two
squares put up. each with twenty-five
figures, cracked jokes and told stories
and then gave the position Of each fig

isf1ed that l had witnessed a wonder"

No Danger of 0verproduction

Regarding possible overprodnc-
tion in the apple belts of Washing
ton, or, in, fact. anywhere in the
Northeast, a question of utmost i'm
Dortance. the answer must come
No, and with the strongest empha-
sis In these favored districts,
which are truly equipped by nature,
aided by mars ingenuity, as apple
growing areas, the orchardists do
not raise a staple article. Their
apple is a luxury and the demand
for it is growing greater each day.
This is also true of other fruits and
farm products of the Inland EN-
pire and the Northwest.
I have it from the highest au-
thorities on apple cultivation that
overproduction is out of the ques-
ton. Prof. H. E. Van Deman
Deman saying while in Spokane as
chief judge at the National Apple
Show last November:
"If the business Of apple growing
should be overdone in the United
States, it by no means follows that
the intelligent and careful fruit
grower in the Pacific states would
be put out of a profitable business,
the evidence multiplies on every
hand that grade of apples is
raised on the Pacific slope, and
especially in the arid and semi-arid
sections, that cannot be duplicated
anywhere. The person who looks
for this industry to speedily be-
come Improbable does not under
stand the situation. The calamity
bowler may scare some people, but
not the intelligent fruit grower who
understands the situation. by

Would Make a Great Senator

Senator Jonathan P. Dolliver, OF
Iowa, recently made this public
declaration regarding Miles Poin-
dexter:
During all of my congressional
career I have never known a repre-
sentative to secure in as short a time
as complete a grasp upon congress
sional affairs as Poindexter. In
my judgment he Ii one of the ablest
men in congress today and one
from whom great things may be
expected in the future"
Senator Albert J. Beveridge, of
Indiana, writes rs follows to a Sc
attic correspondent:
"Mr. Poindexter's public work
has most favorably impressed me.
My observation is that he inter
prets the spirit of the times, and
that he is fearless, able and clean.
He has the vigor of youth and the
enthusiasm of ideals, the capacity
to construct them into practical
legislation and the courage to fight
for them"

My Some Mines Do Not Succeed

In mining the possession of nerve
counts for much. The man who is
not daunted by difficulties. but who
determines to see the thing through
in the face of obstacles, is the man
who makes q success.
The fact il that few mines pay
from the grass roots, 1t is true
that many of them have done so,
and the number of rich mines that
have not only paid their way from
the start, but have given wealth at
the same time to their fortunate
owners, is surprisingly large.
The Mizpah group at Tonopan
made Butler and his first associates
very rich, and out Of the hundred
odd men who took leases on the
property Is or 30 made fortunes,
and all but i've or SIX made money,
although their leases had only nine
months to run.
Nevertheless the fact remains
that the majority of mines only
become producers after the expen-
diture of much money and the use
of brains backed by enthusiastic
perseverance. The evidence of this
fact lies patent on every hand, and
there is hardly a mining district
where properties, now rich produc-
ers, are not to be found which were
turned down by wiseacres, who
knew too much to spend money on
such a prospect, or were too half
hearted to develop it properly

ing the feelings of femininity on the
subject, has hit upon a way of over
coming it.
When a client with her nerves on
jangle from long series Of late
balls and suppers goes to his estab-
lishment with fear and trembling in
every gesture, the man behind the
camera. which. by the way, is not in
evidence at any time during he seance,
ushers his victim to an artistic room
and waves her impressively to an
antique chair of comfortable outline.
Miss or Mrs. Four Hundred sinks into
it with sigh Of relief at the brief
respite. Suddenly, apparently from the
next room. the voice Of Caruso swells
forth in melody. The woman in the
chair leans forward gracefully, nat
urally and generally remains quite still
for several seconds enthralled by the
phonograph she cannot see. Then
there is little clicking noise off at
one side of the room behind a curtain,
and the ordeal is over
Isn't this photographing made easy?
And the bill-well. what difference
does 1t make II you're bordering on
or have appertained to the millionaire
class? ..
Sometimes in my fancy's wanderings
have dreams Of being in the rich
set and in these reckless moments have
thrown away hand embroidered shirt
waists that seemed to my opulent mind
to have grown too old in the service
even to put on the retired list. But
don't do 1t nowadays. What l do is
to cut away the needlework parts of
the waist and with the aid Of bit of
lace perhaps make fancy articles or
dress accessories from them.
The sleeves Of a particularly stun
ming waist had given way under the
arms, rendering the beautiful hand en-
broidery useless, so l conceived the
brilliant idea Of making fancy little
apron from the blouse front. cut off
the collar and ripped the belt at the
waist line. then carefully dampened
the material and pressed it with
moderately hot iron. The material was
then folded so as to bring one side ex-
actly on top Of the other, and the up
per part. which fitted the neck. I cut
in a semicircle SO that it fitted neatly
around my waist. Starting from the
shoulder seam close to the neck, cut
the material so as to bring a straight
line from that point to the edge of the
underarm seam at the waist line.
From there the corners which remain
ed were rounded off. and the goods
gradually sloped downward to the CEN
ter front.
You will find that this design will
make prettily shaped apron, and II
It should be found that at the waist
