 have been fierce."
 That night Mrs. Dillmete woke up 10 find her husband pacing the floor.
 somehow he said, q can't sleep Are you sure the back basement win dows are locked? I thought I heard some one on the basement stairs A nttle while ago, I don't see what is to prevent burglar from walking in at the open bedroom windows from the room, There! Did you hear that?"
 Its that book you were reading," declared Mrs Dillmere. "Go to bedl"
 Dillmere persisted in reading the books, Occasionally when the hor- TOTS grew too great for him to bear alone he related them to his wife after Johnny had gone to bed.
 T don't see how they earned a liv- ing in those days" Dillmere said one evening. After every fellow got through his daily stunt of poisoning few relatives, beheading a whole vil- lage, robbing cathedrals and burning up castles he naturally would rn+ have much energy left for the milrar pur- suits of life"
 Mrs Dillmere woke that night to find the lights turned on and .Dillmere perched on a chair endeavoring to climb the wall.
 "Jamesl" she shrieked.
 Hush" said James impatiently. I'm escaping. If I get to the top of this wall and drop into the moat be- low Caesar Borgia and his minions cannot find me to make me drink the poison, They are burning up the bod les of the people whose heads they have chopped off, but I'll have to hurry"
 A little later, while he mopped the cold water from his person-for his wife's aim at his head with the tum- bier of water had not been good owing to her citement-Dillmere demand ed: Whats the use of raising such row? Wh-what did you try to drown me Sor?"
 Because 1 didn't want you to go through the roof iu your pajamas," re- piled his wife sternly. James Dill mere, you've got to give those awful, disgraceful books away!"
 "All right, --~said Dillmere, shivering. Put 'em in the ash can. Anyhow, I've read 'em all!"

He Got a Chance

Dillmere has a tender heart and an impressionable mind. Not only does he sorrow over troubles visible, but. being blessed with an imagination. he suffers over those concealed from or dinary mortals. When 1t comes to reading, Dillmere. because of his tenn perament, should select something soothing and mild. It was malig- nant fate that led him into the snare of the book agent who was selling The Worlds Greatest Crimes" at re- duced rates and in an attractive cloth binding.
 When Dilimere reached home that night he found his wife waiting for him. She was pointing to the opened bundle of books much as one of re- fined disposition might point at viper or a dynamite bomb.
 What on earth" she began at once, do you mean by buying that stun, James Dillmere? Why, if l caught Jimmy with a volume of crimes in his hand---'
 You aren't going to-" said Dillmere. They are not for Jimmy's youthful intelligence. A mature mind can read without harm about deeds of vio- lence-"
 That book agent must have been a good taiker," said Mrs. Dillmere. grimly. You'll have to keep those books on your closet shelf or Johnny and I don't see. anyhow. why on earth you should want to read such things when there are so many nice books"
 I'm tired of nice books said Dill mere recklesly. I've had surfeit Of recipes for tatting and prescriptions for making china cabinet out Of packing box. My mind needs stimu- lating. Anyhow, 1t is a matter of edu- cation. I am ashamed to be ignorant of what has happened in the world
 After dinner Dillmere retired into the fastness of an easy chair with his books and promptly was lost to his family.
 "Hm!" coughed Mrs. Dillmere at last in desperation, T looked at new coats for Johnny today
 Silence.
 "Hm!" began she again. Grace telephoned that her uncle was dead. I wonder if he left anything? She's always expected that he would"
 Silence.
 Mrs. Dillmere looked at her husband His eyes were popping out of his head and he breathed deeply. James" she proceeded in conversational voice. the bank failed today. Your father murdered your mother. fell down. stairs and broke my neckl"
 "Um!" answered James vacantly
 Mrs. Dillmere rose and swept the book from his hands
 "why don't you listen to me-" she demanded.

USE OF METALS BY ANCIENTS
Extraction of Gold From Ores on . Large Scale Is Attributed to t.
 the Soudan.

Prof. w. Gowland, in his Huxley memorial lecture at the Royal An thropological institute recently, spoke on the metals in antiquity, and traced the origin of the smelting furnace to the primitive camp fire in which lump of ore might have been reduced to metal. But until the art of smelling had been invent ed the use of metals was insufficient to affect to any great extent the old stone agriculture. Professor Cow land traced the earliest metallurgy of copper and iron to western Asia, but said the extraction of gold from it's ores on large scale in the ear Hest times was attributed to the Sou dan.
 Egypt produced the first mining map in the world-a map showing gold mining region in 1850 to 1880 B. c. Lead only became of impor- tance during the supremacy of the Romans in connection with their elaborate systems for the supply and distribution of water and the con- struction of baths. In Africa the extraction of iron from its ores was carried on at remote date. The fact that this early African iron smelting was known in Egypt was well shown by the bas relief on a stone now in the Egyptian collection in Florence.-London Letter, New York Sun.

for his unsophisticated feet in

bifurcated skirts, until he wanders

MORE TAR HEEL"
EMIGRANTS

N. j. Williams and family re-
turned Wednesday evening from
a visit of several months at their
old home in North Carolina and
brought back a number of friends
and relatives who have decided
to cast their future lot in Idaho
county. The newcomers are Mr..
and Mrs. Reese Graham and
four children, Mr.. and Mrs. C. F.
Hodson and four children, Mrs
Fairchilds and five children, Mil
lard Goodman and Robert Taylor
Mrs. Graham is sister of Mrs.
W. G. Brust, of this city.
Mr.. Williams said they spent a
very pleasant winter in the south
and that the trees were in full
leaf in many places as they came
home. They were forced to make
four transfers on the return trip
on account of the high water in
the Ohio and Mississippi valleys.

The recorded transfers in more

ABSURD WHITE WORM
FAKE

Last Tuesdays Capital News
used a double scarehead of black
faced type to announce the alleg-
ed ravages of a "white grisly
worm, with black head" that
was reported to be destroying
cattle by the hundreds in Long
Valley. A regular epidemic of
some strange disease, similar to
the spinal meningitis, was report
ed to have wiped-out the herd
of Walter Shaw, near Lardo.
So great was the ravages of the
plague that a government ex-
pert was on his way from Wash
ington to investigate the matter.
Equiry leads us to denounce
the report as a fake pure and
simple. Deputy State Veterinary
Hurd visited Long Valley this
week and Investigated Mr.. Shaw s
alleged losses, No disease was
present. Shaw lost five or six
calves this spring because of lack
of shelter and poor hay. There
was no strange disease-no girls
ly worm-no epidemic about it.
The cattle Of Long Valley are,
as rule, in good condition and
perfect health. They will 60 on
the range this spring in as per-
feet health as the cattle in any
part of the United States. We
welcome the fullest investigation

A TRUE SPRING "PoME'

Walt Mason, the famous Jerk

buds and necks in the spring time

and who will deny the charge:
The spring will soon be here;
the snow will disappear; the hen
will chuck; the colt will buck, as
will the joyous steer. How sweet
an April morn. The whole world
seems reborn; and ancient men
waltz round again and laugh
their years to scorn. And grave
and sober danes forsake their
quilting frames, and cut up rough
play blind mans buff, and kind
red cheerful games. The pastors
nate to preach, the teachers hate
to teach; they like to play base
ball all day, or on the bleachers
bleach. The lawyers tire of law
the windsmith rests his jaw; they
fain forget the toll and sweat,
and play among the straw. The
springs the time for play let's
put our work away, with joyous
spells kick up our heels, cen
though we're old and gray. You
see old Dobbin trot around the
barnyard lot, with flashing eye
and tail on high, his burdens all
forgot. You see the muley COW

ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
MAKING PLANS FOR
SUM MER WORK.

The annual meeting of the alumni
association of p. H. s.. was held at the
Y. NJ. c. A. on June 18th. After all
other business had been disposed of
the work for the coming year was dis
cussed.
Much good work has been done in
previous years by the association,
among other things accomplished, and
one of much importance, being the an
nual awarding of an alumni medal for
the highest scholarship.
For the coming year plans have al
ready been formulated for the accom-
plishment of big things for the en-
tcouragement and assistance of the
pupils of the public schools, especially
the p. II. S.
A series of important undertakings
viii show the interest of the members
of the alumni association during the
summer, for they will make a deter
mined effort to accomplish certain
tasks they have set for the upbuild-
ing of the work of the association.
