Keen In The Sunshine

There are only two kinds of people in
the worid-the people who live in the
shadow and gloom and those who live
on the sunny side Of the street. These
Swallowed ones are sometimes called
pessimists, sometimes people of melan-
choly temperament; sometimes they
are called disagreeable people. But,
wherever they go, their characteristic
is this-their shadows always travel on
before them. These people never bear
their own burden, but expose all their
wounds to others. They are all so
busy looking down for pitfalls and
sharp stones and thorns on which to
step that they do not even know that
there are any stars in the sky. These
folks live on the wrong side of the
street. And yet it is only twenty feet
across to the other sidewalk, where
sunshine always lies.-Newell Dwight
Hills,

French Official Red Taoa-

Two men went to Nice lately from
Italy to attend a funeral and took
with them a wreath of flowers to
which was fastened a silk ribbon bear
ing an inscription. They were in
formed at their destination that they
would have to pay duty equivalent
to $25. The mourners protested, say
Ing that the wreath was made of nat
ural flowers on which there was no
duty, but they were Informed that the
dutiable part was the silk and that,
according to the tariff laws, duty must
be collected on the gross weight Of
the memorial emblem. Then the men
agreed to throw the ribbon away, but
this could not be done On French soil,
and so they journeyed back to the
frontier where they disposed Of the
ribbon, boarded a train for Nice with
the ribbonless wreath and arrived too
late for the funeral.

The Tag That Rider Haggard Put on a
Literary Hobo.

The Tag That Rider Haggard Put on
Literary Hobo.
Rider Haggard was on one occasion
travelling across the United States as
the guest of John Hays Hammond in
Hammond's private car.
What I want to see," said Hag-
gard, lis the real tramp. l haven't
seen one since / reached this country.
l can't believe you have as many as
has been stated to be the case"
Harris Hammond, the eldest son of
John Hays, promised:
III show you one at the next stop"
He had seen one riding on the trucks
under the car, and at the next station
he went down and called the hobo out.
When the tramp entered the car he
was covered with cinders and dust
and looked like something from the
lower regions.
Hammond shook hands with him
and introduced him, saying:
This is Mr.. Rider Haggard"
Rider Haggard"' exclaimed the
hobo. why, I've read all of your
books and loved every one of them
Then he sat down and discussed lit
erature with Haggard for half an
hour. At the end of the talk Harris
took him back, let him get some of the
dust and cinders Off and handed him a
good cigar.
THAT fellows not tramp" said
Haggard. He's gentleman in dis
tress. Popular Magazine.

TIP T0L0CA[
GROWERS
Advocates Vast Storage Fa-
cilities to Compel Buyers
to Pay Right Prices.

One of the most significant points
made by J. J. Hill in his short talk
to Wenatchee business men yester-
day was uttered in his closing re-
marks. After discussing the uni
versal stringency in the money mar
ket and the effect of that condition
in delaying but not destroying the
completion of the Wenatchee-Oro-
vile branch of the road, the veteran
empire builder, withdrew, saying he
wanted to speak for a moment with
wv. IT, at the same time taking w
I. Clark by the arm and going in
side the new depot which he gave
his inspection for the first time.
In a few minutes the two men re-
turned to the platform. Mr.. Hill
walked up rapidly and blurted out:
There is one thing more I want to
mention. Your output of fruit is
increasing at a rapid rate. You
must figure how to get the most out
Of it. Don't allow your product to
be pushed upon a glutted market.
Avoid this by the construction OF
enormous storage houses. Let no
apples be shipped out of here until
buyers demand them. Then you can
set the prices instead of allowing the
commission merchant to do it as al
present
Il was in Chicago the other day
in company with Darius Miller, pres
ident of the Burlington railroad.
He went into q fruit stand on Mon
roe street, not a large one, and
learned that Wenatchee apples
which they sell exclusively were 60
ing at 25 cents each, $500 per box,
and that half carload a day was
being sold at this one fruit stand.
The proprietor said he was get
ting the fruit from commission
firm on South Water street and was
paying 81 and IS per box.
Now declared Mr.. Hill. that
is the same fruit that your growers
are selling for $3.50. The commits
sion man is more than doubling his
money. You are helpless to prevent
him from continuing to do so I'M
less you can hold your fruit in stor-
age, shipping it only when you can
get the right price for it. When the
buyer learns that you are no longer
at his mercy, that you don't care
whether you sell in the fall, in the
winter or in the spring. that you
have 10 months during which you
would just as soon sell at one time
as another, then he is at your mer-
cy. He will not pay one cent more
than he is compelled to pay Make
him pay the price.
Somebody may suggest that I
am making this suggestion in order
to scatter the time of shipping your
products instead Of allowing it to
be crowded all into few weeks as
is now done. That has nothing to
do with it. The most vital interest
to us is your prosperity. The more
you get for your crops he more
acreage you will plant and the more
tonnage we will get in the long run
We will help you to get all we can. =

The Virtue of TRAVELLING.

There are two great fallacies based
on ancient and rusty saws it were a
noble deed to demolish. One is that
travelling is a form Of wrongdoing.
founded belize on the stupid saying
that a rolling stone gathers no moss.
A pertinent reply would be that a
messy stone is never highly polished
and that stone is not a proper place
for moss, anyway. The other undermin-
Ing caution is that one ought to see
ones own new country before one sees
the wealth Of the old countries. I'm
less on business bent, there is no
earthly reason why one who can af-
ford to travel should not begin at
once with the richest and most beau
tiful countries, with Italy and Greece.
Life Is short and uncertain; one can
not tell what may happen to deprive
one of sight and health and means day
after tomorrow, therefore it is well to
see and enjoy the best while one can.

How to Eat Leather.

The infamous Captain Morgan and
lis pratical crew were sometimes in
tight places at Panama and on one
occasion were reduced to eating their
leathern bags. Some persons" says
one Of the company, Exquemelin
(whose narrative is reproduced in The
Buccaneers In the West Indies'), "who
never were out Of their mothers kitch-
ems may ask how these pirates could
eat, swallow and digest these pieces
Of leather, so hard and dry. Unto
whom I only answer: That could they
once experiment what hunger, or, rath-
er. famine IS, they would certainly find
the manner by their own necessity, as
the pirates did. For these first took
the leather and sliced 1t in pieces. Then
did they beat it between two stones
and rub it, often dipping it in the wa
ter Of the river. to render it by these
means supple and tender. Lastly, they
scraped off the hair and roasted or
broiled it upon the fire. And being
thus cooked they cut 1t into small NOR
sells and ate 1t, helping it down with
frequent gulps of water, which by
good fortune they had right at hand"

Queer Eyes of a Queer Spi6er.

The attus family Of spiders, abound
ing in Java, have In addition to nu-
merous smaller eyes pair Of large
ones which have been called gig
lamp eyes. A specimen Of the spider,
captured near Buitenzorg, exhibits a
remarkable power of changing the col
or of its eyes. When taken the eyes
were dark brown like the body, but
suddenly they changed to bright grass
green. Soon afterward they turned
back from green to brown, and this
change Of color was repeated several
times in succession, apparently at the
will Of the creature. Whether this ac-
ton on the part Of this curious spe-
cies Of spider is an effort to inspire
terror in its enemy or whether it is an
effect Of it's own terror is uncertain.
Another singular fact is that the color
Of either one or both eyes could thus
be changed at wallpapers Weekly.

Conditions Reversed.

One of the finest examples of paw

an old gardener who was in the serv-
ice of Admiral of the Fleet Sir Alex
ander Milne. The admiral was q
grand Old man, full Of goodness and
kindness, but strict disciplinarian.
The gardener having omitted to do
something which he had been told to
do, his master said to him:

have had you put in irons for disobe-
dience"
The old gardener was not much per-
turbed at the idea, but, leaning on his
spade, replied:

At the same time that the cardinal

AN ENGLISH MINE
HORROR
Little Hullon Mine Had Elk
plosion and F'ire-90
Miners Buried.

Bolton, Eng, Dec. 21.-An explo-
sion followed by fire caused many
fatalities in the Little Hullon mine
this afternoon after 90 miners had
gone below the surface.
Following the explosion smoke
and gas filled the mine. At two
o'clock this afternoon only eight OF
the 290 imperilled men escaped.
The outlook for the rescue of the
others is dubious. At that hour ten
bodies had been recovered.
For time the lives of seven hun
dred men were in jeopardy. The ad-
joining mine was damaged. The
shock made it some time before its
hundreds of occupants could be
reached and brought to the surface.
The explosion was terrific.

Deadly PuIoue

In spite Of her long years of indie

drink problem. The national drink of
the poorer classes is pulque (pro-
nounced "poolkay'D, the fermented off,
spring Of a plant resembling the aloe.
1t tastes like stale buttermilk dashed
with a strong dose of stagnant water
and must be drunk within twenty-four
hours OF fermentation. Its action is
instant and powerful, and its speedy
results are softening of the brain, pa
ralysis Of the nerves and death. So
deadly are its effects that no employer
Of labor will employ a peon from the

Ancient Gardens,

The Egyptians were conversant with
the art Of landscape gardening, though
they had to contend with the fiatness
Of the land. Water, however, as an
adjunct was often called into play, for
there was the inexhaustible Nile. We
have three plans of their gardens, as
the one found in the tomb of Meryleat
Tell ell Amazon, which gives us the
perfect idea Of how a grand garden
was laid out. We have, too, pictures
Of Egyptians reclining on chairs and
fishing in these artificial lakes.
