 This world would be dreary mono tone without the mountains and the lakes, the rivers and the valleys, which have come through natures great upheavals. The sufferings of earth make it the more glorious. Men is much like this in his own experi- ence. The blessings of like have come in large measure because of the heart aches and the agonies of men and women. They have given of their life blood so that others might be en- riched. This has been their crucifix. ion. But out of their affiction has come a new life-grown from the seed of the best that died in the old self. This has been their resurrection Charles Sickle.

SOLACE IN HIS MISFORTUNE
Entombed Miner Had at Least One
Pleasant Thought After Two
Days Of Suffering.

Miners + among the most heroic
people in the world. Danger is always
beside them, and they are schooled to
believe that any time they will come
face to face with death. The result Of
this is that they are humorous in their
bol6ness.
In one Of the mines of Pennsylvania
there was a cavern which imprisoned
a miner named Jack Thornton. The
accident happened on Friday after
noon, and the fellow laborers Of the
entombed man set to work at once to
dig him out. 1t was not until Sunday
morning, however, that they reached
his prison chamber, and by this time
they were wondering whether he had
been suffocated or starved to death.
One Of them stuck his head through
the aperture made by the picks of
the rescuers and called out:
Jack, are you all right?"
All right" came the reply, and then
after a pause: what day is this?"
Sunday" exclaimed the friend.
"Gee!" exclaimed Jack, I'm glad OF
that. That was M Saturday night
when those saloonkeepers didn't get
my wages."-Popular Magazine.

PROFITS
were not DISCLOSED

BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Jan. A.-Allowances
made for hides in 1909 and during a
part Of 1910 in figuring the test cost
OF beef, on the books of the National
Packing company, show that in that
period the corporation received from
the sale of hides $3,669, ,O5067. Sales
by months, as given by William e.
Weber, general auditor Of the Nation
al Packing company, who began his
fourth day on the witness stand in
the packers trial today, were given
to the jury. The government con.
tends that by not allowing credits on
hides during this period. the pack
ers materially increased their test
cost Of beef and enabled a rise in
price to consumers without showing
excessive profit on their books. Web
er admitted the value Of hides during
that period varied from two to four
c ,nts per pound &C ,ording to quality.
