Measuring Words With Deeds.

When Congressman Gardner says
that ttthe United States has talked
so much and done so little he must
be making a sly dig at his old friend,
the colonel. It is a safe guess that
Mr.. Roosevelt talks at least ten
times as much as any other man in
the country. Where the president Of
the United States, it's official repre-
sentative, says one word the rough
rider pours forth at least twenty in
speeches, interviews, magazine ar
ticles, books and any other form OF
communication open to him. Never
was there such a human geyser of
verbosity. Woodrow Wilson has ac-
comp1ished more in the past three
years in the line of important legis-
lation and diplomatic victories than
the colonel could do in thirty. And
still the latter loves to pose as a man

Interesting Facts About Beginning o1

This article, which was first pub

because of certain inquiries that were
being made by DR.. Talcott Wllllams
and members of the State Press asso-
citation during the recent meeting in
York:

a gold piece was handed to him by
the Indian girl he thrust it back, with
the words:
''Pll take one of your photographs
for that, young lady," and thrust the
card into his pocket with adden-
dunn: eff you won't get jealous, Mol
lie"
Before daylight next morning Dan
was mounted on his horse, bound for
Tinker's creek. Mollie looked anx-
ious and her father troubled, as with
his usual buoyancy Dan predicted his
speedy return.
Look out for the Wenatchees,
Dan," warned the old man. Word
has come that they are restless and
making war dances over beyond the
reservation. You know what that
means"
81 do" nodded Dan carelessly, land
none of them will get me-" and he
meaningly touched the belt that bore
two sturdy-looking seven-shooters.
It took Dan six days hard travel
to cross the country to Tinker's
creek. To line this safely for some
thirty miles meant safe arrival at
the point where the hidden hoard Of
his dead partner had been buried.
The trouble was, however, for that
half of the stretch he was on reser-
walton ground and further, as he
well knew, strip where the most
mischievous and sanguinary section
of the tribe of Wenatchees made their
headquarters.
Dan had proceeded about ten miles
when, turning a great mass of rocks,
he came directly into a nest of saw
ages. In flash he realized that they
had been lying in wait for any unsus-
pecting traveller who might come
along. They made a collective dash.
Under ordinary circumstances Dan
would have remained quiescent and

aroused in the sturdy miner.
Whack-whack! his fist shot out,
then seven shots of flame, and heed
ing not who met the onslaught, Dan
drove through the shrieking mob and,
followed by a harmless fusillade,
made good his escape.
Dan reached the end of his journey
without further obstruction or delay.
1t was daylight when he came to the
spot where his dead partner had hid
den the golden results of six months
grubbing over placer field. Within
an hour Dan gloomily realized that
someone had anticipated him.
He had precisely located the bur-
row under fiat stone where the gold
had rested. There was the outline of
the distracted bag in the soft dirt
underneath, and one or two loose
nuggets.
"Gone -robbed!'' gasped Dan, in
sheer stupefaction, and it took him
several hours to comprehend that to
search for the lost bundle would be
like looking for a needle in a hay
stack.
If Dan had really secured the treas
ure he would have sought a new,
roundabout way of reaching home,
for he knew that the Indian crowd
he had outwitted would seek revenge.
Crushed by his loss, detected, Dan
recklessly retraced the river trail, to
get into new trouble.
He ran into his foes at an ambus-
cade, and, one to ten, was overmas-
tered. He fought hard, and was gen.
orally mauled up, taken captive and
hurried to a copse, where he was ar
raigned before a stern-faced chief of
the tribe. Dan had disabled three of
his assailants of the night previous,
it seemed, and revenge was demand
ed.
1t was while they were searching
him that strange episode ,transpired.

Fous on Great Lakes.

The Lighthouse Service Bulletin
publishes a compilation of the num-
Der of hours Of fog or thick weather
observed year at sos fog signal sta
lions during the period of 1885 to 1915.
AS such stations are maintained in all
coastal regions of the country, includ-
ing the great lakes, which are subject
to fog, their records are valuable
indication of the extent of this danger
to navigation The highest annual av-
erage is 1851 hours year, at Petit
Manan, Me-, while the highest record
for an individual year and place is
2,734 hours in 1907, at Seguin, Me-,
or about 80 per cent of the entire
year. Calumet harbor, near Chicago,
had 2,269 hours of fog in 1913. This
and other lake stations are affected
somewhat by smoke. On the Pacific
coast the highest annual average Is
1887 hours, at Point Reyes, but in the
year 1915 there were 2,145 hours Of
fog at San Francisco light.

Music Aids Dentists.

Here's tip for other tooth doc"

clares that music takes the patients

compartment for some time" declared
this ivory expert, land l am sure that
it makes a visit to dentists less
painful certainly less nerve racking
than before. Much of the work a
dentist has to do is absolutely pain
less, although many patients are SO
nervous that they actually believe
they are suffering. In fact, nine
tenths of them cry before they're
hurt. But by giving them music they
like while in the chair their minds
are diverted, with the result that their
experiences are not unpleasant. The
idea has a scientific basis, and l have
found it highly successful

ArtfuI Old Man.

A gentleman, while walking with two
ladies through one of the principal
streets of London, saw a beggar ap-
proach. One of the ladies, who had
evidently seen the mendicant before,
said:
"This is the most singular man l
ever heard of. No matter how much
money you give him, he always re-
turns the change, and never keeps
more than a penny"
"Why, what fool he must be-" re-
marked the gentleman. But I'll try
him, and put him to a little trouble. y
So saying, the gentleman pulled
from his pocket a sovereign, ($5)
which he dropped into the beggar's
hat. The mendicant turned the coin
over two or three times, examined
it closely, and then, raising his eyes
to the countenance of the benevolent
man, said:
well, I'll not adhere to my usual
custom in this case. III keep 1t all for
luck; but don't do it again"
The donor opened his eyes in aston
ishment and passed on, while the la
dies smiled with delight.

Insect Travellers.

Ship cargoes are often responsible
for the introduction of quite new spe-
cies of insects il different lands. Ba-
mana punches often hide poisonous
reptiles and insects which travel long
distances, only to bite or sting the
hand of some receiver of fruit. Often
they escape alive and breed their kind.
Many venomous snakes have thus been
introduced into lands where none ex-
listed before. Strange creatures have
been imported on the blooms of or
chids, and West Indian insects have
travelled in Easter-lily blossoms. De-
structive moths migrate in fruit ships.
Flying insects often follow ships. Ore
curious case was that of vessel from
the tropics followed by swarm 9f
butterflies. Out of sight of the shore,
they hid in the cabins and hobs
emerging 40 days later when the shiI
reached England. This originated quite
new species of butterfly IL the Brit
ish isles.
