MADE OVER FOR B0OKLoVERS
New York Has Substitute for Saloon,
Where Literature and Soft
- --~- Drinks Are Sold.

A new idea in the way Of q substf-
tute for the saloon is to be tried out
in the Booklovers' tavern, recently
opened in New York, the Philadelpi.9
Inquirer states. This is simply a place
with the familiar bar and brass rail-
where soft drinks and literature are to
be dispensed together. Thus the men
tai ,eXhilaration to be derived from
the latest novel will satisfy those ac-
customed TO the cocktail and give gin
ger ale or Ice cream soda q FLIP IL
has not hitherto had.
The Booklovers' tavern may draw
book purchasers, though its superiority
to the ordinary bookshop Is not ap-
parent. But can it be expected that
thirsts will be assuaged in this way2
And will those who seek inebriation
between covers be able to pay the
price? Kipling highball or Wells
fizz at $1T5 is considerably more than
the purchasers of alcoholic beverages
have been charged under wartime
prohibition. - s ro
1t is obvious, too, that the kind OF
literature dispensed over the bar will
have to he very carefully guarded.
Many of our poets were a roistering
lot, who did not hesitate to celebrate
the charms of the Demon Rum.

FOUND MILLIONS FOR OTHERS
Men Who Discovered the Famous Com
stock Lode Profited Little by
Their Great Luck.

The famous Comstock lode, greatest
Of silver deposits, was discovered in
1859 by three prospectors, Pete o.
Riley, Pat Mclaughlin, and "Old Pan
cake" Comstock, while washing gravel
for gold. They were in hard luck.
Needing water for their rockers, they
dug a hole four feet deep and came
upon bed of sulphide of silver. Not
knowing what it was they tried it for
gold, with highly satisfactory results,
though ,cursing the internal blue
sand" that clogged their primitive ap-
paratus.
TIE blue sand was an outcropping of
the wonderful lode, one vein of which.
800 feet wide, came afterward to be
known as the big Bonanza" yielding
ore that was nearly half silver. From
this source were derived the multimil-
lions of Mackay, Flood, O'Brien and
Fair-the last-named being young
mining engineer, while the other three
were everyday miners. The discorerers
sold out for small sums. "Oll Pancake"
blew out his brains 0'Riley went in
sane and Mclaughlin died poor man.
