DUE TO CHANCE DISCOVERY
Scotch Boy Picked Up Piece OF Ore
That Led to Development of
Rich Copper Mine.

The chance discovery some years
ago by boy Of piece OF copper
bearing ore led TO the opening up OF
a very promising copper mine on the
estate Of Otter, In Argyllshire, Scot
land.
Struck by the appearance OF the
ore, the boy kept il two years, when
he showed 1t to Mr.. J. s. Taylor, a
mining expert, in Glasgow. Mr. Tay-
lor prospected the district, and three
rich lodes were opened THE Murder
Lode" has proved to be by far the
richest, and the field was selected for
exploration because 1t was known that
40 matter how heavily II was manured
no grass or crop could be got 10 grow
there.
The picturesque name arose through
local tradition that curse lay on
the field because Il had been the scene
OF a fight to the death between two
women The real reason for its bar
renness was found to be the presence
OF poisonous copper salts.

smoke, oily and black, rolling out of
the chimneys and blotting out the sur

boiler room and gave the firemen a
good dressing down for allowing SO
much smoke to escape, telling them 1t
was throwing money away and that If
they could not fire better I would have
to discharge them.
II thought no more Of it till the next
morning. when, on entering the engine
room, found the chief mechanic jubi-
liant over some joke. He told me that
the chief fireman, a negro, had come to
him with tears in his eyes and had
said: Mr.. U. says that we must not
let the smoke go out the chimney; If
we do he will discharge US. Now, II the

Care OF the Washing Machlne.

Care OF the Washing Machine.
Washing machines are 10 common
that We women-f0lks are apt tn abuse
them considerably, thus shortening
their period Of service and making It
necessary 10 buy new ono much sooner
than II We gave our washer proper care.
Too often We SEQ tho washer sitting
out In the sun, wind and rain. This
soon cracks, rots and wsrps the wood
work out Of shape and also rusts the
metal parts. We keep our washer IN
good shelter, the Same a. any other
time saver, and know that it pays
In dollars and cents and In easy, OF.
ficient service.
We avoid running the washing ma
chine with too many clothes In 1t ct .
time, as 1t will wash moderate tubfui
of clothes cleaner, with less labor, aud
with not 80 great strain on tho ma
chine. A few clothes and plenty OF
water should be the rule for quick, easy
washing, turning them frequently, to
place all parts OF them next to the rub
bling surface.
II q pailful of water is left In the
washing machine after each washing, 1t
will prevent warping and bulgIng OF the
bottom of the tub, which so often ruins
an otherwise good washer. Shrinking
of the tub slaves may be prevented BY
good coat of paint every two or three
seasons, which also guards against dam.
age and decay of the whole machine and
adds to It's appearance.

sionally. Tightening them up. as 1t not
only prevents wear and tear, but the
machine operates much easier II all
parts are held firmly In position while

Proper oiliug of the washing machine
often is neglected, In spite of the urgent
directions accompanying every machine,
which tell as to oil the parts regularly
every time We wash. The washer runs
at such high rate of speed, that failure
to use plenty of oil on the working parts
will cause them to out and wear out
very rapidly, while the washing will be
much harder to do with the hard rum
ming machine. We carefully oil the
washer every time 1t Is brought into use,
occasionally running some coal Oil

A chinsss Superstition.

When a Chinese baby takes q nap
people think Its soul Is having rest
going out for a long walk perhaps. II
the nap is very long one the mother
is frightened. She Is afraid that her
baby's soul has wandered too far away
and cannot find Its way home. II II
doesn't come back, Of course the baby
will never awaken. Sometimes men
are sent out into the streets to call the
baby's name over and over again. as
though it were a real child lost They
hope to lead the soul back home. II q
baby sleeps while 1t Is being carried
from one place to another the danger
Of losing the soul along the way Is very
great. So whoever carries the little one
keeps saying its name out loud, 80 that
the soul will not stray away. They
think of the soul as bird hopping
