There Are Times When Il May Become
Source Of Real Terror.
The fear OF silence and loneliness
not seldom attacks burly miners who.
for that reason, refuse to work alone
IN distant drifts. In China the very
refinement Of torture is to confine a
condemned criminal in a place where
sound cannot reach him and over the
plank to which be Is bound to place
vessel Of water. so regulated that
once every few moments a single drop
shall fall upon his brow. There is no
light and no sound to distract his at
tention. and the thoughts Of the poor
wretch become 50 aonce' on the
expectation Of yp of water
that when It ! ,seems to strike
him with the ...pact Of bomb. and
reason cannot long Withstand the
strain. In his book. I'm Lotus Land
Japan" Mr.. II. G. Pointing says he
came to understand the strange dread
Of silence through an experience in a
California mine at midnight.
Five hundred feet into the crust of
the earth l went and felt no new SEN
sations except one of disappointment
as the shaft echoed with my footsteps
900 feet. 700 feet 800 feet and the
bottom of the mine.
But IS ] stood there 4 creepy feeling
came over me. What was this con-
seriousness that suddenly oppressed me
and made my blood seem chilled?
had felt nothing like it before. My
candle gave but feeble glimmer, and
I found myself peering furtively into
the shadows with feeling almost akin
to dread. All at once l knew 1t was
the silence-the immense. oppressive
silence. Hitherto when ! had been
down in the mine there had always
been the regular beating Of the ham,
mers on the drills. Now there was
nothing but thick. velvety silence.
Then sudden sound. like the crack
of stock whip, put every sense on the
alert. Was not alone. then. after all?
In moment the instinct of self pres
ervation reminded me that I was IN
armed. Who could be down here at
this hour. and what could be his OBJ
ject? Had been followed? Without
a weapon I was at the mercy of any
ruffian. All this rushed through my
brain in a moment, and as l tried to
pierce the shadows my candle only
served to make the darkness visible
Another crack. almost like a pistol
shot. and then enlightenment and re-
lief flashed upon me. 1t was nothing
but drop of water falling from the
hanging wall in the stump below. yet
In this dread silence it struck with al
most the noise of Illuminating cap.

JUST A SUGGESTION.
The Working Girls Homo Life Should
Be Pleasant.

The Working Girls Homo Life Should
Be Pleasant.
The kindest, best intentioned Of par
ents are often unconsciously neither
kind nor fair to the daughter who is
wage Garner.
1t is quite possible that her hours are
longer, her work more trying than that
of either father or brother, yet where
as nothing in the way of help is ex-
pected from them in their leisure hours
the business girl is as often as not sup
ties.
If no more active tasks are assigned
her she must do her own mending and
probably a share of her fathers and
brothers, and whereas they will be pet
ted and pampered and generally SYM
pathized with on their return from
their more or less arduous labors it
seldom occurs to any one that the
working girl is probably infinitely more
nerve racked and worn out than any
man is likely to be.
And all this happens because WON
ans work outside her home is seldom
taken seriously by her own folk.
They are ready enough to profit by
it's results-for, indeed. the working
girls income is rarely her own, as her
brothers is his-but that its earning
entities her to the same ease and lei
sure it entities the masculine bread
winner seldom dawns on home folks.
This is obviously unfair.

together. both pretending ignorance of
the other. and. topping themselves
down. succeeded in squeezing breath
lessly and miserably in. There they
sat then. each scowling and staring at
the rudeness OF her respective neigh
Dor, each wriggling and squirming as
much as possible in order 10 crowd
that neighbor still further. Finally the
situation became acute. and one OF the
women spoke. with fine sarcasm, Il
beg your pardon. but do you need the
whole seatT'
II beg yours" the answer came, but
I never talk to strangers"
Just then a third pretty woman
passed, stopped and addressed the two
at once: Why. TO think of finding you
two here together, And have always
wanted TO introduce you, because l
know you will just love each other.

Those who have plaster casts that
they wish to preserve may protect them
from dust by brushing them with a
preparation of white wax and white
soap. half teaspoonful of each boil
ed with quart Of rain or other soft
water. Use when cold, and when they
are dried the casts may be wiped with
a damp cloth without injury. To hard

of alum water and brush with white
wax dissolved in turpentine. Put the
cast in warm place TO dry after using
the latter. and it will have a look not
