Found In a Glacier.

Sir Martin Conway has recently told
this story of finding lost ak in the
Alps: zurbiggen, one of the cele-
brated mountain climbers Of the
world in scaling a peak Of Les An-
glaises, near Chamounix, accidentally
let his ak fall near the summit of the
peak. It fell some thousands of feet.
In the normal course of things it was
buried in SHOW and swallowed up in
the glacier, being covered deeper and
deeper each year, and at the same
time being carried slowly downward
as the ice flowed on. Seven or eight
years afterward Hon. c. G. Bruce and
Harkbir, a Sepoy chief, in descending
a peak of the Alps just as night was
falling, and a great crevasse barred
the way, being unable to find the
bridge over it, cut a path down to
to bottom, where Harkbir stepped on
an ak which had M. q. Zurbiggens ini-
tials on the handle. There could be
no mistake as to the identity of the
AK, as Harkbir had seen it and used
1t before.

He Knew That Money Talks.

He couldn't talk English, though per.
haps he understood a little, but he
knew a thing or two. He was riding
on huckster's wagon past a public
school. His partner had gone into a
house to sell some truck, and he was
learning the business. His clothes
were ragged and shabby, much like
those of the stage tramp. The chill
dren started to jeer at him, making
remarks about his clothes. He seemed
to understand that they were making
fun of his clothes, SO he reached in
his pocket and pulled out the bromide
roll of bills that would choke cow"
These bills he waved at the children,
for apparently he believed that money
would insure respect, even If he did
have old clothes.

Call of the City.

Life in the city is needed for real
appreciation of the country. Blake,
the painter and mystic dreamer, lived
in the heart of London! Millet, the
painter of French rural scenes, de-
lighted in his life in Paris; Turner,
commenced life in Seven Dials. 1t is
possible for people to live in the midst
of earth's glories and not appreciated
them till someone from the city re.
veals to them the charm. OF late years
we have heard much of the cry: Back
to the land" 1t will never be much
more than a cry. Men in the mass
will not go back. Mans ideal Is not
the Garden of Eden. He has left that
far behind and will never return to
it.-Rev. w. H. Armstrong in the Daily
Citizen.

That the Puritan fashion of nomen-
clature produced some very odd re-
suits is very generally known. The

SHOWS HER TRUE CHARACTER

an on Shopping Expedition Re-
veaIs Herself as She Is.

Someone has said that you can al.
ways judge the caliber of man by
the manner in which he amuses him.
self. My experience Of is years as
fioorwalker In one of the largest de-
partment stores In the country has
convinced me that you can always
judge a woman by the way in which
she shops-which, after all, is only an.
other way of saying the manner in
which she amuses herself
have learned to realize that when
the average woman goes on a shop
ping expedition-when she has taken
up the trail of the bargain, determined
to track it to it's native counter-she
brings all her cleverness into play, and
in the zest of the chase she is certain
to reveal her true self and uncon-
sciously drop the mask she wears on
most social occasions.
Always on the alert, always eager
to bring down the game, big or little,
with timely purchase, these shoppers
you will see browsing about the coun-
ters in and out Of season. You will
see them questioning the salesgirls,
trying to learn in advance when re-
ductions are to be made. You will see
them pick out some article and then
come in day after day and watch it's
price tag. Then when the price Is low
cred to the point where they think it
is bargain, you will see them pounce
on it and carry it home.-Woman's

No Landmarks In Space.

"There are no landmarks in space;
one portion of space is exactly like
every other portion, so that we cannot
tell where we are. We are, as it were,
in an unruffied sea, without stars, COM
pass. soundings, wind or tide, and
we cannot tell in what direction we
are going. We have no log which we
cast out to take dead reckoning by;
we may compute our rate of motion
with respect to neighboring bodies,
but we do not know how these bod
les may be moving in space'-Max

More Chances for coroners.

1t is predicted that a speed of 100

more persons will be reached by can
