the sole assistant to Faraday and Of
course was utterly uneducated IN scion

which is not always a characteristic of
an educated man. One day Anderson
was told by Faraday to keep stirring
a pot containing some chemicals over

in the habit of going upstairs to tea in
his rooms and coming down directly
afterward to work in the laboratory
during the evening. For some reason
he was prevented from coming down

HELLO GIRLS HAVE WEAK EYES.
Continual Flashing Of Calls Wears
the Eyes Out in Three Years.

Journal American Medical Associa-
ton: There are in the United States
about $4,000 telephone girls whose
average term Of service is three years
or less. The working hours are about
eight per day. The average number Of
calls is about lao an hour, running, "at
the peak" to 225 or more. The oper
ator sits facing a switchboard which is
covered with numbers, each number
having a small signal light that flashes
on and off as the call is completed.
When the person calling raises his
receiver a light flashes on the switch
board at central and this light con-
tinues to burn until the operator
plugs the number and receives the
call. She then plugs the number called
for and this light burns until the called
person raises his receiver from the
hook. When the receivers are finally
replaced on their hooks both lights
flash and burn until the operator re-
moves the connecting plugs.
To complete n call means four
flashes of light. AS the average num-
Der OF calls lis $40 per hour, with 225
or more during the rush hours, the
operators eyes are exposed to from 500
to 1000 flashes OF light every hour. re-

Business and Speculation.

Skilling's Mining and Market Let
ten: ACtiv speculation in mining Sc
curltles does not necessarily follow
prosperous conditions in the mining
industry. If this fact were not gener-
ally understood before. it has been
thoroughly illustrated during the past
year or two. The Letter last week
published statistics that showed that
the first ten months of the present
year witnessed the disbursement Of
more money in dividends by Ameri-
can mining companies than during
any like period in the history Of the
country. Yet the general public has
been Indifferent to the mining stock
market, and the market has for a long
time been almost purely professional.
We are told that the iron and steel
business Of the country Is on the de-
cline, Inc that general business is
~lessening in volume. 1t will be no.
ticed, however, that the decline is
healthy and orderly. There is nothing
even suggestive Of panicky conditions,
and with the Mexican problem solved,
and the currency measure enacted in
to a law, it would seem as if there
should be a revival in all departments
of enterprise. Also it would help some

Wild HOGS OF LOUISIANA
Declared by Natives Of One Parish to
Be Among Most Ferocious
of Beasts.

The wild hogs OF Catahoula parish
are declared by natives Of that part
of Louisiana to be among the most
f%erocious and aggressive of beasts, says
The Boston Herald. The flesh of these
meat-fed porkers is much liked by the
Catahoula jewellers, n they have per-
fected a way of capturing the hogs by
which the dangers, and particularly
the hard work, Of hunting them have
been eliminated.
To accomplish this dogs are trained
in a special manner. The only other
thing required is a strong pen or cor
raj.
The start Of a hunt for a drove Of
hogs in the thick and tangled Cata-
houla woods is made by the dog. 1t is
his business to find the drove. After
that the hunting is all done by the
hogs, for they industriously pursue
the dog. The hunter himself does moth
ing but sit on the corral fence and
wait.
Keeping always in mind the direc-
ton Of the pen or corral, the dog goes
into the woods and Pushes a drove Of
wild hogs. Then he yelps out an ag-
%gravating challenge, which the hogs
instantly accept. They make a furious
dash for the hated enemy, and the
hated enemy turns tail and fees, head
ing straight toward the corral and
managing at all times to keep a suffi-
cient distance ahead of the angry
drove.
In this way he lures the hogs on
until in their mad chase they follow
him through the open gate of the cor
raj. Then the dog speeds to the closed
end of the corral and nimbly jumps
the fence, while the master of the hunt
lets himself down from his perch on
the fence, where he has been patient
ly waiting the outcome of the chase,
and shuts the gate on the entrapped
porkers.
