RECEIPT FROM
 GERMANY.

Berlin, Aug. 5-(By wireless to SayVille.)-The German government has begun a systematic gathering of figures and statistics concerning eX- isting supplies of copper in every shape. It had been known previous ly trat in addition to the increase In copper production, the supplies surpassed 2,OOO,OOO tons, sufficient to meet war requirments for ten years. A large proportion of this total Is available with the adoption of several measures. Other portions of l. will become available by the substitution of other metal.
 With the idea of obtaining com plete copper data to the end that systematic preparations for the fu- ture be made effective, the govern ment has decidd to invstigate care fully what amount of copper might be 4ound in the untensils, instru- ments, boilers and roofs made of this metal.

And They Didn,t ExercJse.

William NJ. Evarts, who lived until he was nearly ninety, said he kept his health by never taking exercise. The celebrated Dr. William George Mead, who lived to the surprising age of 1IS years, spent nearly all of his time in the open air and played little golf Dr. Mead used to drink two or three quarts of water every day, and per haps there is a suggestion in that. Oll Dubois, whO lived in Canada for the better part of li9 years on the north shore of Lake Erie, never worked Hnd never took exercise. He spent seven ty-fve years of lis life fishing with hook and line and ate nothing but baked apples and milk and brown bread and unsalted butter.

4 New Back for an Qld One. How
 1t Can be Done in Alaska

The back aches at times with dull, indescribable feeling, making you weary and restless; piercing pains shoot across the region of the kidneys, and again the Joins are so lame that to stoop is agony. No use to rub or apply a plaster to the back if the kidneys are weak. AL askan residents would do well to profit by the following example.
 John I. Conger, prop, printing shop, S45 N. Seventeenth St, sal em, Oregon, says: My back got weak and sore and my kidneys did not act as they should. At times l could hardly straighten. Doans Kidney Pills gave me relief and it took them only short time to rid me of kidney trouble. I pub licly endorsed them several years ago and am glad to do so again."

believe Wis 2 hundred feet away when they missed me.
 1 heard them scatter and beat about, and while they were hunting for me I crawled along and got my gun. I crept away from the circle of the fire and than got the shelter of tree. The Indians beat about for a good half hour. and then all came In, chagrined and dIsgusted. I lifted my gun and took fair aim at the leader. He went down as my rife cracked and was fol lowed by a second and a third before the surviving two could comprehend what was going on. Neither stopped for his gun.
 I stood guard all night and when morning came was satisfied that the two who had escaped had no idea of returning. After a scanty breakfast I caught up the six animals, packed up everything of value, and then I headed to the southeast for the river, and at 8 o'clock rode right into the camp of the party, which had settled down for sport and had given me no thought. Next day party of us rode over to give the bodies more careful inspec- ton, and We found on each one q sil- yer government medal, given them dur ing I4ncOln's first term, as "good h. dians."

The Chinese RurnIar-

"The Chinese burglar Is the most difficult to nab" declared Lecoq, the detective. 'T might say he is impossible to nab. When this yellow scOundrcl goes burgling he goes naked and GOV. cred with oil, and thus he is as slip pery as an eel But, you say, why not nab him by the pigtaiI, hey? The an swer to that is that his pigtaiI Is done up in q knot on top of his head and stuck full of needles and hatpins with the points turned outward. You often see Chinaman in Picking or Shanghai with his clothes stained with oil and tiny red bricks all over him. He's been having trouble with a burglar"- Exchange.

 A writer who planned an article on the subject a few years ago, says the London Chronicle, finds among his notes a Robert Louis Stevenson one in the shape of a Life Of Hazlitt." Sir Richard Steele contemplated a Ills tory of the War In Flanders" Isaac Disraeu intended "A History of Our Yernacular Literature;;" William Make peace Thackeray not only planned a life of Talleyrand," but 1t was ad- Yertised for publication In long bygone years, and Emile ZOla contemplated writing q book on HonoFe de Balzac.

Why Italy Loves the Army.

Tho Italian soldier is not only se- verely drilled, but he is also expected to perform q good many duties not usually regarded as falling within the requirements of military service. It is considered incumbent on every man wearing the kings uniform to give aid whenever and wherever it may be needed for the protection of life and property, against crime. accident or disaster, and whenever calamity be- falls-such as an earthquake-the first move Is always to send troops to as sist the suffering. That is enc reason why Italy regards her army with af- lection as her protector at home as well as her defender against foreign aggressiOn.-LOndOn Chronicle.

A peep Sea Mascet.


 One of the fayoritc mascois of deep sea fishermen, to which they attach great importance, is a tiny fiat stone, or bone, found in the ears of plaicc and other fish. The wcarer of one of these stones Is supposed to be immune 10 the danger of drowning.
 It Is easy to find these stones in the ears of fish, although they are no big ger than q split lentil. Anybody who cares to look for one and to examine 1t will see on its surface light and dark rings, similar to those found on a larger scale in tree trunks. The number of rings tells the age of the fish, as a new ring appears each year Every Week.

Going Out


81 declare" walled the matfonlY
woman, "I never get chance to go
out at all, and it is shame! l stay
at home day in and day out like a
chained"
"Tell your husband about it," sug-
gested the newly welded neighbor.
81 did, not longer ago than yester
day morning and he said: All right,
We'll go somewhere tonight. I'll take
you to the theater.' I asked him who
was going to stay with the children
while he and l went to the theater, and
he replied that we would hire some
one.
81 said that l supposed Mrs. Phlin-
der might take the job But the kids
set up a howl at the idea of Mrs.
Phlinder's staying with them. They
don't like her because her face is so
red. Nevertheless l decided to phone
Mrs. Phlinder. She lives in the back
of Mrs. Oshkins' house and uses Mrs.
Oshkins' phone in making appoint
ments. Mrs Oshkins said she would
go and bring Mrs Phlinder to the
phone to call us up. We sat down to
wait, but there was no summons for
us. We called Mrs. Oshkins up again
and she informed us that Mrs. Phlin-
der had been at the telephone and that
central had told her we didn't answer.
Mrs. Oshkins also said that she would
be hanged if she was going to chase
after Mrs. Phlinder any more that
evening.
"At that my husband started out do
find Mrs Phlinder. He got lost in the
Oshkins back yard and thinks that he
had narrow escape, SO we gave up
the Phlinders idea and began the pur-
suit of a Mrs. Tulip. The children and
| sailed forth to see her We found
that Mrs. Tulip herself was going out
but there was a colored lady we might
get.
The colored lady was summoned, al
though the children were anything but
charmed at the prospect of her society,
and l didn't know how | was going to
| get out of hiring her, when | had al"
ready committed myself by being in
| the market for such aid However,
we had no need to worry, for the color
| ed lady YVES going out, too.
"And then 1 remembered old Mrs.
Dilly. Poor old Lady Dilly! Goodness
knows it was a good thing to throw a
little money her way once in while
and the children would not object to
her either Every evening she sits
alone in her humble apartment, and
the children would make cheerful COM
| pany for her The dollar she would
earn would keep her in tea and sugar
for some time, thrifty old soul that she
| is!
II rushed over to Mrs. Dilly's home
| and found it ablaze with lights. She
was having party.
"I never can go anywhere and there
| Ia no helm for it.' 3

Make-BeIieVe Mascots.

Gamblers are VIGOROUSLY supersd
tious, as all who have visited Monte
Carlo know. There you will find
parasitic class who live on the super
stition of frequenters of the tables.
They are hunchbacks, aid the gam
blers imagine that they are certain
to have a run Of luck after touching
the humps of these unhappy wretch2s.
Accordingly, one finds at each erS
trance to the Casino row OF waiting
hunchbacks ready to bring luck to
any one who will pay them. Each
has his own list of patrons, and 9
very comfortable income some Of
them earn.
Not few of them are normal In
every respect, their humps being
simply padding and framework strap
ped upon their shoulders. One such
was recently exposed and punished
summarily.
A rumor had spread among the
gaming fraternity that he was
fraud, so one Of his patrons, instead
of patting him gently on the back as
usual, gave him a resounding thwack,
which effectually dislodged the bogus
hump.
Having thus effected record quick
cure, the gamesters determined thar
their patient must also take the wat
ers in the lake of the Casino gardens
in case he should have a relapse.
After a lengthy dip he was so thor
oughly cured that he left Monte Car
10 never to return. But there are still
bogus mascots at the doors Of the
gaming hall, and there always will be
till the foolish superstition dies OUT

The Douqhnut

ooh, Mr.. Bryfogle, you are pessi-
mist!"
True" answered Bryfogle. "And !
am proud of it! Don't be shocked. l
haven't started yet. l wouldn't be one
of your grinning, senseless optimists
for all the"
Butt" quoted Miss Minkin, ""The
optimist sees the doughnut and the
pessimfst sees the hole!''
True" agreed Bryfogle, a second
time That's an optimist's definition.
Leave it to the optimist to take the
doughnut and pass the pessimist the
hole every time!
but think it is about right at that!
The pessimist sees only the hole in the
doughnut. Oh, wise and learned optim-
ist, how much better off you would
be if you, too, could see only the hole!
But the optimist, having eyes that see
not wisely but too we'll, sees the dough
nut and eats it.
1T is like this: The optimist and
the pessimist stand before the bake
shop of human experience. Then the
optimist, whistling blithely, his shoul-
ders thrown back, his head held high,
enters the shop and buys the dough-
nut. The pessimist stands outside,
his hands in his pockets, his lead
bent in thought He sees the opti1nist
enter the store. He sees the store
man put the doughnut into bag and
hand it to the optimist. Then he sees
the optimist go merrily on his way.
Presently the pessimist sees the
optimist begin to eat the doughnut!
Thereupon the pessimist phones to
the police to have the ambulance in
readiness-that something is about to
take place.
That's pessimism, Miss Minikin.
But how are you going to get along
without it?"
ooh, l don't know" Miss Minkin
made answer. people who are always
looking for ambulances are usually
the first ones to need them. The
pessimist might have got run over by
a steam roller while he was dreaming
the man eating the doughnut. l am
going to have some of this cake-wil
| you try some?'
mot until | ask my wife if she is
going to eat any of it."
"Why should you ask her?"
I Because, if we both ate It whC
would send for the ambulance?"

CITY OF NAPLES.
1t Is Macon, Mo-, and the Stranger
Invariably Notices the Trees.

The stranger in Macon, Mo-, invar-
iably notes the large number OF mag
nif1cent shade trees that border the
streets of the town. The place has
come to be known as '"The City Of
Naples" and the inhabitants take
pleasure in telling of how these fine
trees were acquired. In 1872 John w.
Beaumont, a real estate man, went
broke" and could not pay his taxes,
which amounted to SIG. He offered
the city council in lieu of the cash
10000 young maple trees, from one
to two inches in diameter, all ready
to set out. 1t was that or nothing, so
the council took the trees. By public
proclamation the Mayor fixed an
'arbor day." and everybody who
would agree to set them out and care
for them received from six to ten
trees. At that time the town was al
most bare of trees of every kind. AL
most in a day Mr.. Beaumont's legal
tender for taxes was in the hapds Of
the Inhabitants, and they so faith
fully carried out the mayors In
junction that today there is hardly
street in town which is not beaut1-
fully shaded by thick leaved trees,
suggesting town in the tropics.

Love of the Sea,

1t is most reasonable to assume that
the maritime Importance of such
countries as Great Britain and the
United States is due in large meas
ure to the intense interest evinced
by the people of those countries in
everything relating to nautical affairs.
The sea has a special attraction for
them, and that attraction manifests
itself not only in their naval and mer-
camille fleets, but also in the passion
ate devotion with which they enter
all forms of sport and pastime on the
high seas.-Hindu, Madras.

Brain Growth.

The brain usually stops growing at
about fifty, and from sixty to seventy
it is more likely to decrease. 1t has
been related by Canon MacColl that
Mr. Gladstone's head was constantly
outgrowing mis- hats. AS late as the
Midlothian campaign, when he was
nearly seventy, he was obliged to
have his head remeasured for this
reason. Canon MacColl's conclusion
that this continual growth of brain
contributed to Mr.. Gladstone's per-
ennial youthfulness appears not un-
Warranted.-Spectator.

The Brains Control.

1t has long been a common physio
logical knowledge that the left half Of
the brain has full command over the
right side of the body, while the right
half of the brain exercises a like COM
mand over the left side of the body.
An electric shock applied to the right
half of the brain will cause move
ment on the left side of the body; SINH
larly the left half of the brain so slim
ulated affects the right side of the
body.
