Why Hermit Took Up Hermltlns.

A hermit was found dead in the
cave in which he had resided for many
years. When the cavern was ex-
amined a number of quaint and curl

your own good the nuisance who puts
an endearing hand on your shoulder
while relating an uninteresting re-
miniscence, ct al, which went only
to further show the late gentleman's
state of mind. Being perspicacious, it
was not hard for the visitors to decide
why he had erased himself from the
world and taken up the thankless job
of hermiting.

pROSPECTS GOOD FOR BIC
 STREAK ON NOME CREEK

The benches ot Nome creek, a tributary Co Beaver river, win yet show up a definite paystreak, ac- cordinC Co the belief Of Ed Brooker, who has reached Chatanika from that region with a big poke Of dust, The dust Is all coarse and was ob- taiued by grouud-sluicing on the right limit or the creek, in the vi- cinity ot the supposed high channel that was reported to have been found by "Two-Step" Louis Sch midt. some time ago.
 Much prospecting remains Co be done, but the "stickers" expect that they win be successful in the end. Blooker has been working with Chas. Schiek on the same ground for the last live years, each year taking out a little money, but never landing on the pay. This season, by a short season or ground-Sluic- ing. they managed Co take out sev- eral hundred dollars In coarse gold, of a kind rarely seen in the camp.
 The work of the two men has been done on the right limit bench, about 2,0O0 feet from the prospect holes of "Two-Step" Louis. The ele- yation there Is about a thousand feet higher than here, so work was suspended a few days ago because ot the cold weather. Brooker re- ports that there Is over a foot Of snow iu the hills.
 In the goo square miles of couu- try around Nome and Birch creeks, there are but four or five prospect ors. an of whom have been plug giug away for the past few years
 Brooker plans to come to town shortly and win probably return to his work when snow falls, and it is possible to freight back his out git.-Fairbanks Daily Times,

Elephants Asleep.

A question often raised IN regard to
the African elephant is whether this
animal ever rests or not At first blush
1t would appear that there could only
be one answer to the question. So
huge an animal must expend terrific
amount of energy and therefore, as one
might reasonably infer. must need
more time than smaller animals for
rest and reinvigoration. Nevertheless
many travellers aud some naturalists
have asserted that the African elephant
in its native state never sleeps or at
least never lies down. A correspond
ent who has sent photographs from
Malek. on the White Nile. says in the
communica ton that accompanies them
that the picture represents herd Of
female elephants photographed in the
bush near Malek. In the Mogalla prov.
ince OF the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan. It
has been maintained that the African
elephant never lies down to rest. Sew
eral may be seen thus sleeping."-

Poisons In tho Stomach.

A most curious fact Is that all food
contains the elements Of poison. and
in our body poisons are manufactured
from these. For instance, meat, fish,
cheese and milk are composed Of by
drogen, carbon, nitrogen and oxygen.
Take away the last and you have prus.
dc acid! We do not manufacture
prussic acid. 1t is true But in every
stomach in the world fermentation
goes on just as in brewery, and the
poisonous carbonic acid Is made In
large quantities. If you breathed a
few days output Of carbonic acid gas
you would inevitably die. Sulphuret.
ed hydrogen Is one Of the most deadly
gases known. yet in every stomach 1t
is made at one time or another. In the
stomach all food is converted into
what we call "peptone," and II a very
small quantity of this found its way
into the blood it would kill as surely
a. prussic acid.-Pearson's Weekly.
