This Is one of Eli Perkins fav-
orite stories: al was on a train
going East n summer night" he
says, when there was a wreck.
The train was derailed and all the
passengers were more or less shak
en- up. Everybody in the sleeping
a. tried TO get out as h~urriedly as
possible, and in the confusion our
clothing got considerably mixed. I
had worn a pair OF white duck
trousers. but ! couldn't find them.
Finally ] did find a pair of trous
ers. I put them on quickly, but I
could not leave the cart. You see
they were not mems trousers"
Here there is always general laugh
ter, and Perkins looks about in a
panied sort OF way, then goes on
"They were boys trousers"

Attack Like Tigers

In fighting to keep the blood
pure the white corpuscles attack
disease germs like tigers. But
often germs multiply 50 fast the
little fighters are overcome. Then
see pimples, boils, eczema, salt
rheum and multiply and
appetite fail. This condition de-
mands Electric Bitters TO regulate
stomach, liver and kidneys and IN
expel po.sons from the blood.
"They are the best blood purifier"
writes c. 7. Budahn, OF Tracy,
Calf, n have ever found" They
make rich, red blood, strong nerves
and build up your health. Try
them. soc az p. II. Frankhns.

Where Money BUYS Life.

The rich Chinaman if condemned to
death easily procures substitute.
Some poor wretch, without money. to
secure his spirits from becoming wan
dering devils, with the price Of his mis-
cradle life can purchase proper care
for his spirit. Anything, in fact, can
be done if you have the money. 1t is
this belief that causes the Chinaman to
commit suicide by taking his life on the
premises of his enemy to take venge-
ance on him. His spirit, he believes,
will forever haunt him. There is an
other reason also. He knows that as
sure as fate the officials will under
such circumstances come down upon
his enemy and strip him of everything.
Poor Chinese have been known to sell
erything they possessed, tear down
their houses to sell the timber, sell or
rent out their wives and children and
even sell themselves to procure money
for the proper rites for the peace and
comfort Of the ancestral spirits. One
thing alone a Chinese will not do
namely, sacrifice his son.-Kenneth +.

Tho Aaaomh1v Of Notahlos.

The assembly Of the n0tables at Yer
saIlles, Nov: d, 1873, win eYer stand
as one Of the great landmarks in hu-
man progress, not on account of itself,
but, in consequence OF what 1t led to.
Louis XVI, being in great financial
straits, had already called together the
big men of his realm, but is with
this second meeting Of the great ones
that history will ever be the most pro
foundry concerned The 'notables;'
made up Of the nobility and aristoc-
racy Of the realm, listened to their own
voices and displayed their gold lace
and vanity for something over a
month and adjourned without doing
anything either for the king or the peo-
pie Disguised with the stupidity and
Indifference OF the notables, Louis con-
voked the states general, which was
composed Of representatives Of the no.
bility, clergy and third estate, or plain
people. .Maddened by the contemptu-
Gus treatment they received at the
hands OF mobiles, the delegates Of the
third estate organized themselves into
the national assembly, which in turn
organized the REVOLUTIONARY York
American.

Tho Roman Forum.

The Forum was originally market
place and only by degrees became the
center Of Roman civic and political
life. About B. G. 40. it became the
place of assembly of the people in
their tribes and was gradually adorn-
ed with temples and other great pub
lie buildings. The Roman Forum-the
Acropolis at Athens alone excepted
Is perhaps the most thri1llngly inter
estng spot on earth to such as know
and appreciate the teachings of his
tory. From the Forum came the au-
gust laws which governed the then
known world for more than a thou
sand years. ~ e

Huao's Practical Side.

It may not be generally known that
Victor Hugo used to draft the adver-
tisements Of his own books, instead OF
leaving the task to his publishers. His
correspondence with his Belgian pub
fishers gives the following example OF
the great novelist's advertising style:
CATER the middle ages, the present
time: Such is the subject Of Victor
Hugo's double study. What he did
for Gothic art in .Notre Dame de Paris
that he has done for the modern world
in Les Miserables.' The two books
figure in his scheme Of work as two
mirrors rejecting the whole human
life" An encouraging. example to
those young authors who cannot make
up their minds how much modesty is
enjoined by the best literary tradt"

do you mean?" asked Earl Grey in as

The Curious Electric Eel.

no NuFIouS GleCIElS 60Is
The electric eel, which is common in
the streams of Brazil, is possessed of
a natural electric battery-a tremen-
dous one Beneath the skin are two
pairs Of peculiar little bodies passing
longitudinally along the muscles and
near the tail. One pair is next to the
back and the other near the lower fin.
These bodies are made up Of great
number Of little cells, two or three hun
dred of them, and plentifully supplied
with nerves. Examination of one of
these electrical organs has shown that
in action it is very much like gal
vanic battery, with the anterior ex-
tremely positive, the posterior mega
tive and the current only discharged
at the point of contact with an object.
This has been proved to be SO power
full when complete that chemical CON-
pounds are decomposed by it and steel
needles magnetized.

John. BRIGHT and the Carpet.

A characteristic story Of John Bright
Is told by Mrs. T. P. O'Connor in her
book, II Myself" He was at dinner
one night with an M. P. whose wife
by no means shared her husbands
democratic sentiments. John Bright
was sitting near his hostess, and she
was rather annoyed at having him
among her smart guests and thought
to give him direct snub, so she said
during pause in the conversations:
"Mr. Bright, this rug, understand,
was made by you, and Lam very dis
satisfied with 1t. have only had it
a short time, and it is very shabby and
badly made"
"Is it," said Mr.. Bright, getting up
deliberately from thestable and taking
a silver candelabrum, which he put
down upon the floor, and, getting upon
his knees, closely examined the car
pet. You are quite right" he said,
blithely getting up; '.it is bad car
pet, and will order my firm to send
you another in its place. And then
he calmly resumed his political con-
versation, and the dinner went on.

To Register Grocers.

A bill has been drawn at the in
stance of the Retail Grocers, Butchers
and Bakers association of St. Joseph
which has met with the approval of
the Missouri State association, requir
ing that all grocers pass an examina
tion and be registered before they cas
start in business.
If the bill is passed Missouri will
be the only state in the Union to have
such law, although Germany, Eng
land and other European countries re-
quire grocers to pass examinations.
The object of the bill is two-fold:
To protect those who want to enter
the grocery business and to protect the
public. 1t is said that 95 per cent OF
all persons who enter the grocery bust
ness fail - because of inexperienes
mostly-and that the losses are about
a million dollars a year.
Under the proposed law a person
entering the business must have some
knowledge of foods and how to handle
them, as well as a knowledge of the
way to keep a store in a sanitary con
dition. The bill il not retroactive,
those who are now in the business not
being required to pass the examina
tions.
Those back of the bill say that if it
is passed it win materially raise the
standard of the grocery store, and will
also be of benefit to the public.-Con

MINING NOTES.

Despite a limited market for its ores,
Republic continues to maintain fine
record for production.
The Consolidated Mining and Smelt-
ing company of Trail, B. c., has taken
a lease and bond on the Number One
mine at Ainsworth.
The main tunnel on the United Cop
per mine, near Chewelah, has been in
body of clean shipping ore, the full
width of the drift, for some time
The Butte Central Mining company
has let a contract for the construction
of 1O0-ton concentration at the mine
at Butte. 1t is to be erected at once.
The discovery of new precious
metal has been made in the Nelson
Kootenay mining district in British
Columbia by Andrew Gordon French.
Before the first of the month the
work of cutting the station on the
1sO0-foot leve of the Toullumne mine
near Butte, Mont, will be commenced
and the crosscut to the ledge will be
well under way.
The Coal Creek (B. g. mines were
opened Monday, but very few men can
be employed until clearing is done and
things put into shape after the long
close-down. 1t will not take long to
find places for all the 1000 former
strikers.
Bob Mabry of Spokane has closed
mining deals aggregating $4,000
Purchasing the Yankee Girl for $1O0,
900 from John Frazer, acting for the
creditors, and also the Bi-metallic and

tthe Buck creek diggings near Cape
York, which is in Bering strait. This
is the first large shipment of tin or,
from Alaska. The ore will be shipped
to Swansea, Wales, for treatment.
The settlement of the coal miners

put to work almost Immediately at tn
British Columbia Copper company
several mines in the Boundary, AM
from 800 to $50 more will be put on a

and half years from date smelter
and mine operators are given ASSN
ance of an ample fuel supply for tina

of operations by the CRANKY company
