The Peoples of Laurium.

Some years ago there was seen in q
silver mine Of Laurium a curious in
stance of the resuscitating power OF
light after many years. The silver
mines Of Laurium were abandoned
more than 1000 years ago as unwork
able and were filed for the most part
with the Stag from the workings OF
the miners.
1t was discovered, however, that this
Stag contained plenty Of silver, which
could easily be rendered available by
up TO date appliances. Accordingly il
was removed to the furnace and, when
next the mine was visited, q wonderful
transformation was found to have
taken place. Instead of heap of rub.
Dish, the mine has become q gorgeous
flower garden. The entire space was
covered with brilliant show of pop
pics. This profusc vegetable life. it is
asserted. belonged to the age in which
the mines were worked Twenty cen.
turtles old, therefore. were those POPPY
seeds. yet when the removal of the
Stag allowed the light to fall upon
them. they sprang into life and bloom
under its influence.

Eurma's leak Trees.

During the reign of the Burmese
kings teak was the royal wood and
the king had a right to all teak. The
palace of the kings in Mandalay is al.
most entirely built Of this wood, and
one of the throne rooms Is supported
by fine pillars of teak. The bamboo
forests In Burma, which sometimes
grow to a height of from fifty TO sixty
feet and are a glory in themselves. are
but an underground above which tow

dignity and beauty. attaining a height
Of from 80 to 160 feet. The teak trees
grow several hundred yards apart.
three mature trees to the acre being
considered a good yield. Beauty is
not. however, their chief feature, for
their wood is used extensively for
home building both in Burma and In.
dia and in Europe for men of-war. Its
durability Is due to an essential oil,
and when used as backing for armor
plates II is found that the bolts and
riyets do not rust owing to the oil con.
tanned in the wood.

of his flannel shirt, grimed with Gin
ders; at his broken, blackened hands;
at his frayed overalls, washed to a
blush white. All at once concrete
pictures of what this was going to
mean to him, this stunning, bewilder-
ing event, began to crop up before his
blinking eyes. He saw q shining vision
OF patent leather shoes, trousers creas-
ed in front and in back, diamond
ring, theater tickets, restaurant din.
ners and-Mary, Mary Ryan!
A sudden wide yell Of pure joy burst
from him. Sprlnging to his feet, he
began to cakewalk, then to dance
leaping up and down the tiny room,
skipping, bucking, smashing his great
boots against the wall. letting out his
voice In tumble Of song and war

The landlady was pale and breathless.
"Do you love me. Molly, darling?

Tom, and, 6inging both arms about
her, he gave her the desired answer
with resembling heartiness. Then he
whirled off down the stairs, four steps
at time. with a whoop that opened
every door on the way. The landlady
stood gasping: then she slowly shook
her head.
''No, that amt no drunk" she decid.
ed. II guess it's a girl" And she
smiled shrewdly as she put out the
gas Tom had left lighted.
In the street Tom returned to n
measure of dignity. though his heels
seemed to be rammlng holes In the
pavement at every stride. and his heart
pushed up his chest like an internal
balloon. 1t was pay day, and in his
pocket was months wages. BY the

Ruildina a House In Iapan.

In Japan If one wishes to build a
house he first proceeds to make GER
tain that the site Is respectable" If
1t Is not he must have the ground puri-
fed. A curious incident of this nature
developed not long ago when n native
decided to build In Tokyo on the
ground formerly occupied by the Ichi-
gaya Jail. The carpenters would not
begin work until the priest had been
called in and purified the spot. He
brought with him bamboo rods and
shimmei and rice and with weird in
carnations turned north, south, east
and west, uttering his formula four
times and scattering bits Of paper and
rice at each delivery. The spirits Of
jail inmates long dead thus propitiat-

The lash steadied Tom a little. He
went away without a word as the
window slammed down and In some
way reached home and bed.
Long hours later consciousness slow
ly came back to him. His aching head
demanded an explanation, and the let
ter lying on the table supplied 1t with
little throb of excitement The
momentary JOY faltered and sank as
he remembered how he had found
Mary out for mere fortune hunter
nfter him for his money, though an
other mans arm had been within an
inch Of her waist a moment before.
And then out OF the mists and vague
ness came like burst of sunshine the
knowledge that she had thrown him
down because he had drunk, had turn
ed on him as he deserved, without a
pang for his money and had given 1t to
him straight from her angry heart
the darling! And so the JOY began to
steal back.
He had meant to make straight for
the patent leather shoes and the black
cutaway coat that had been his dream
Of years, but instead he put on his old
Sunday suit, and, after shave and a
shampoo. he turned to Mary's. She
