IS LAND OF MISFORTUNE
Beautiful Vale of kashmir tias
Through the Ages Had a Record
of Natural Calamity.

Beautiful and unfortunate is the
wonderful vale of Kashmir, lying high
among the Himalayas, ringed with gi,
gantic peaks, clothed in evergreen
fir and deodar, the light-green bed of
Jehlam strung across it's dun breast
like jade necklace, blushing with the
ghostly pink of peach and plum bios
sons" Kashmir has a persistent rec
ord OF natural clamity. Jehlam over
flows its banks at intervals and sends
destroying foods that wipe out whole
districts. The giant peaks around the
valley stir now and again in their
sleep Of ages and shake the flats with
mighty earthquakes. Famine and
cholera kill more than the river and
the trembling mountains. Fire fre-
quently sweeps the fields and cities
AS one looks up at the hills on either
side from the bed OF Jehlam it is
seen that one slope is covered with
COOL dark forest, while the other
grows nothing but long grass. A spark
in this grass starts the blaze. Among
the Himalayas the air is biting cold and
the Kashmiri carries a little charcoal
brazier under his robe to warm his
body. These peripatetic furnaces start
many flame. With history dotted
with such calamitous landmarks, the
people Of Kashmir have acquired
pessimistic expression and disposition
They are superstitious, too, ascribng
all manner of miraculous attributes
and fairy inhabitants to the mountain
springs.

old BOTTLE.GREEN
BY HAROLD CARTER.

This was where the tide of battle
first began to turn" said old Bottle
Green to Peter. This was where we
hammered and broke 'em. Set 'em up,
and we'll fight it all over again. You
can be the Rebs."
Maybe I'll beat you this time, old
Bottle-Green,' thought Peter, but he
said nothing and began to set up the
lead soldiers. For an hour and long
er the opposing forces fought tooth
and nail with spring guns and chips
for shells. Surely enough, the Yankee
reeled back as far as the edge of the
table, and there died to man rath-
er than surrender.
That's because didn't have Stone
wall Jackson said old Bottle-Green.
You killed him early in the game.
You remember. Next time I'll beat
you"
Peter crept guiltily out of the
house. 1t was strange how he had
first come to play soldiers with Bottle
Green. When Peters mother first
went to live in the village everybody
despised Bottle-Green. He wore a
bottle-green coat, he tapped his stick
tiercely as he went down the street,
and everybody was afraid Of him.
The old man had no friends, and he
lived all alone in the white house, ex-
cept for his negro servant, Amyas.
Peter, fascinated by the old man,
crept up to a window and looked in.
He saw big table and wonderful ar
ray of soldiers and artillery. The
Did man was busily playing one force
against another. Smash, smash!

Spain's Fish Production.

The annual production of fish in
Spain amounts to nearly $20,0O0,000
yearly in value There are $50 steam,
and 1874 sailing vessels engaged in
the industry. The annual production
of timed fish is 100000 cases of ten
tins to the case. The pack of POrtu-
tal is about 100000 cases, and that
OF France in normal times about l.
100000 cases. Large quantities Of
Spanish fish are sent abroad under
French and italian labels.

Mystic and aker.

Art is the encompassing of the ideal
within the limits of the human facul-
ties, and in this sense every Jew is
an artist.
1t is mis- quality to discern unexpect-
ed possibilities in things-to bring
out what is in them, whether the sub
ject Of his interest is piece OF music
or gold mine.
That is the key to the paradox of
the Jewish character and explains why
he is at once mystic and a money
maker-a dreamer with an eye to the
main chance.

liVeS.'
He lives in the big house at the cor
ner, sah," answered Amyas There's
a sign up over the door"
What does it say?" demanded Bot
tle-Green.'
Scarlet fever, sah," answered
Amyas.
Ten minutes later old Bottle-Green,
attired in his bottle-green tail coat,
was interviewing the doctor at the
door, The doctor was very grave.
Peter had bad attack, and it was
doubtful if he could live through the
night.
All that night old Botle-Green sat
under the lilac tree at the gate, wait
ing When at last the doctor came in
the early morning he saw tears on
Bottle-Greens withered cheeks. But
when he came out his expression set
old BOttle-Green to capering-he, Bot
tle-Green, the recluse, who had glared
and tapped so fiercely at the boys and
girls at play.
He'll live now," said the doctor.
Thank God" said Bottle-Green rev.
erently.
At last there came a day when Pc
ter was allowed to see visitors. And
among the first to come was Bottle
Green, with an enormous box Of SOL
diers under his arm, followed by
Amyas, with a folding table. Peter,
at an upper window, saw him COM
ing.
I'm the name of the Continental con-
gress, peace!" he cried.
I'm the name of the Continental con-
gress,' answered Bottle-Green.
Old BottleGreen entered, and in the
doorway stood a smiling young lady.
Il know who you are,'' she said,
holding out her hands.
But don't know who you are" re-
torted Bottle-Green, unless you're
Adelaide Cannon, come back to me aft
er these fifty years.
'She was my mother" answered the
lady, mystified. she was the grand
mother of Peter. She often spoke OF
you, of Mr.. Clarence Hargreaves--
Captain Hargreaves. But surely you
are not he?"
Il used to be- said Bottle-Green.
And the years seemed to fall away
from him, and he Strengthened his
shoulders and felt ashamed of his old
coat
There were tears in the young lady's
eyes, and she put her hands in his.
"She loved you, Captain Hargreaves, %
she said. And she was sorry. AS my
! fathers daughter, that is all I am al
| lowed to say. And to think Peter
found you!"
"Oh, yes, Peter, of course" mused
Bottle Green.
you must come often now," said
Peters mother.
Yes, yes,' said Bottle Green, nod
ding his head. "Of course" And he
ran up the stairs, shouting, Peter!
Peter!"
And just as soon as the folding table
could be set up by black Amyas the
Rebs and Yankees were fighting a fu-
rious battle all over it's surface.

went the guns, and whole lines went
toppling over. Just then old Bottle
Green looked up and saw the little
boy. Peter, too terrified to run, stood
with bulging eyes. He expected moth
ing less than to be caught and eaten
Old Bottle-Green came charging out
Of the door. Want a game of sol
diers, little boy?" he asked.
Peter nodded.
Old Bottle Green carried him inside,
and the terrified Peter soon found him
self playing with zest and having the
time of his life. That game the Yam
KEGS knocked some word Peter didn I
understand out Of the Rebs But the
next time they played the Rebs gave
as good as they got And so the for
tunes Of war sWayed for many criti-
cal games.
Mind you, don't tell anybody about
it," said old BOttle-Green. Swear by
the password"
Il swear by the Continental CON
gress,' answered Peter, lifting up his
hand

morning you're passing, step in and
have a battle
Peters mother never knew what
became Of Peter on those days. She
thought he was playing with some OF
the boys. Peter kept his fearful secret
conscious that the destinies OF the ma.
tion depended upon him.
How is it you haven't any little
boys of your own to play with, old
Bottle-Green? asked Peter one day.
Old Bottle-Green scOwled fearfully
and opened his gold watch with a
snap that sounded like the discharge
of a whole park Of artillery. Inside
was the face OF beautiful woman. 1t
seemed vaguely familiar to Peter,
though he did not know where he had
seen it.
She wouldn't have me-" answered
old Bottle-Green She said she was
going to be true to her country and
marry a Reb, although she loved me
better When you don't get married
you aren't allowed to have little boys
So l never had any"
oh" said Peter, thinking he un-
derstood.
so that's why l have to play with
you," continued the Bottle-Green. Run
away now, and come back tomorrow.
Peter ran away. But he did not
come back on the morrow He did
not come back during the week,
though every morning old Bottle Green
had the soldiers out ready to play.
Il wonder what's become of Peter?"
said old Bottle-Green to black Amyas.
They do say, sab, that there's a
mighty lot Of scarlet fever in town, +"
said Amyas automatically.
