In January, 1865, fienry Becker, a German, and John L. lrimmer, a Connecticut man, two poor, ragged, discouraged mining prospect- went into the mountains of Cala- yeras county to cut oak wood for fuel. rhey expected to make something iike $50 or $40 each per month during the winter by the sale of the wood. made their home ors, They in an old abandoned miner’s cabin. A heavy fall of snow had covered the ground to the depth of two or more feet ’ One day the two men buiit a great bonfire of brush. The heat melted the snow and left an area of hot earth. Becker determined to make an oven out of the hot ground, and, securing a haunch of deer meat, he began the digging of a hole in which to bake it. At the depth of two feet he came upon a bed of rock. He had been & prospector too long to resist the temp- tation of examining the rock, and, ac- ec. rdingly, before placing the meat in tae hole he broke off a piece of the rock. Then, after the venison was buried and roasted, he examined the broken bit of rock carefully by the lizht of his cabin candle. To his very great aston- ishment, it proved to be what miners call live rock, assaying $600 to the ton. For several months Becker and Trim- mer kept their great find a secret, in the meantime gathering information concerning the dip angle and length and breadth of their new discovered ledge. Within a year from its discov- ery this mine bad made Becker and Trimmer rich. The Shark’s Mouth, N» doubt the shark’s mouth is placed so much beneath the projecting muz- zle, under which also the nostrils lie, ; that it may serve its proper purpose in the best way. In all records of the habits of the fish we are told that it ean and does bite out large chunks of fiesh from the dead bodies of whales and even from living victims of its at- tacks, and it is easily seen that if its mouth was like that of other fishes the necessary leverage would be lacking. A further reason seems to be that the shark by this peculiar position of its mouth is compelied to turn upon its back to strike and is thus able to de- liver its onset from below deadly effect. This formidable strength of jaw is backed up by a most terribie array of teeth, of which in some species there are as many as six rows all around. Each tooth is saw edged and pointed, and some of the largest are as much as two inches in breadth at These lie fat against the jaws and can be raised by separate mu with mere the base. scles at will, so that, as the shark darts upon its prey, they spring on end, as a ecat’s claws are stuck out from its paws. This arrangement will not allow any- thing once bolted to return, so that a shark’s mouth is a veritable death trap. —Cincinnati Enguirer. To “Sock,” This word is in constant use In Northamptonshire, England. It has two meaniugs, one being “to throw;” e. g., “I’ll sock a stone at you.” A fa- vorite diversion among boys is “sock- ing” birds. They proceed along the hedges, one boy or more on each side, all armed with stones, with which they unmercifully pelt, or “sock,” any poor bird they come across. The other mean- ing of the word is “to beat or to clout;” e. g., “I'll fetch you a sock o’ the ear- hole.” I have known “sock” in this connec- tion all my life, and it is sometimes now used here. “I'll sock him,” “Iu give him bellsock,” “He got a good socking’” are common forms. A for- midable fighter is cailed “a belisock- er.” “Sock” is common when speak- ing of “thrashings” given and taken. “To give one socks,” meaning “to give one a good beating,” 1s in common use in East Anglia. And so is “pull up your socks” for “make haste” and “set to work.” A stone in the heel of a sock or stock: Bloo Disorder are simply kidney disorders.

WO cAteiMnpure ime pre Notes and Queries. Regard For the Fox In Japan, All over Japan you will see images of foxes—old foxes, with their noses chip- ped and their ears broken off; older foxes still, with a growth of moss on their backs; sly, alert foxes, with noses perked smartly in the air; great foxes and little foxes, sages and clowns, all kinds and degrees, showing the preva- lence of this belief in the land of the Wistaria and the fan and also showing in what respect the fox is held. It is curious to note that in all countries the fox, above ail other animals, has been considered to exert great influence and power. All nations have legends of which the cunning and intelligence of the fox are the theme. Charity. Every good act is charity. Giving water to the thirsty is charity; remov- ing stones and thorns from the road is charity; exhorting your fellow men to virtuous deeds is charity; smiling in your brother's face is charity; putting a wanderer in the right path is charity. A man’s true wealth is the good he does in this world. When he dies, mortals will ask, “What property has be left behind him?” But angels will inquire, “What good deeds hast thou sent before thee?’—Mobammed. Lucky Hesitation. “I never was glad for this impedi- ment im my speech but once,” said the min from Dearborn, who was in to see the town. “When was that?’ “Fe-fe-fellow asked me _ h-h-how much | would take for a-a horse, and while I-I-l was t-trying to tell him s-Sixty dollars, he offered me a hun- dred.”—Woman’s Journal. Speech and Ambidexterity, “‘Here’s a scientist,” she said, look- ing up from the paper, “who asserts that the reason people are right hand- ed is that the motor speech function controls the right side of the body and consequently right handedness grows with speech.” “Is that so?” he returned, deeply in- terested. “It is indeed strange, then, that many women car loft bands at all, is it not?” use ¢t heje Making the Best of It. “Will you have this here woman to be your lawful wedded wife?’ “That’s what I ’lowed I would!’ “Will you love, honor and obey her?’ “Ain't you got that switched roun’, parson?” said the groom. “John.” said the bride elect, “don’t you reckon the parson knows his busi- ness? Answer the question!’ “Yes,” said the groom, “I reckon I'll ”’—Atianta Constitution. have to! Another Chunge Likely. Miss Breezy —I she’s married acain. Miss Lakeside—Yes; this is her sey- and I don’t think she cares very merch for him. Miss breezy-No? Miss Lakeside--No. I was at the en- graver's today when she left her order for her new visiting cards. She only ordered 50.—Philadciphia Press. ‘ see ryt} entn It is estimated that at any given time, in Germany alone, 1,300.000 per- sons are afflicted with consumption and 1.200.000 in America have it at all times. Professor Ilirsch pronounces it emphatically a disease of all times, all eonntries and all races. Sapphires Not All Biue. “Jt is commonly believed that the sapphire is known only as a gem of a ricb velvety blue in color,” observed an experienced dealer in precious stones to the writer the other day. “As a matter of fact, the sapphire occurr in yarious hues. In Ceylon, for instauce, where the ‘inest specimens of this gem are found, it ranges from the soft vel- vety blue to the peacock blue, gradu- ated in the latter to an almost fau!tless white. It also occurs in whites, greens and yellows, the latter shade being known as the oriental topaz and the green the oriental emerald. “The white sapphires are often found clouded or streaked with blue, go that many specimens are cut which are white when looked at transversely, but having a bit of fine blue tint on the un- der point. Then there is the red sap- phire, or Ceylon ruby. It ts valued as highly as the finest Burmese rubies. Those most highly prized are of rich pigeon blood or rose red color. “Some very fine sapphires have been found in Montana during the past ten years. The American gems are light blue, blue green, green and pink, but the deep blue and red stones, which are chiefly in demand as jewels, have so far never been discovered in any part of this country.”- The Rooster Was Game, A Rockland young man is the owner } of a smart rooster and has long enter- tained suspicion that the bird might bave inherited gamy characteristics from some long forgotten ancestor. To apply this theory in an actual test he! went home the other night, surrepti- tiously conveyed the parlor mirror into the hen pen and beld it before the gaze of the wondering rooster. The young man was not kept long in suspense as to the bird’s fighting qual- ities. After a brief, incredulous glance There were a crash, ind a clatter, and when the und feathers cleared away the sportsman stood, a dismayed ctator, in the center of a pile of us formed of broken mirror, slats d pulverized plate glass. t IS DOSY satisiied with the rooster, but how he squared himself about the brosep mirror is not known.—Bangor Whig and Courier. jdiine’ Ye Fairly Good Time. around a Topeka railroad luuch counter the other day were four old Sant#*te engineers. They were telling of fast runs. Three of them had to:d their stories. “The fastest run | ever made,” said the fourth, after lis- tening to the lies of the others, “was between Topeka and Emporia not long ago. It was a bright moonlight night. We were behind when we pulled out of Topeka and had orders to make up all lost time between here and Emporia. After reaching the top of the Pauline hill | pulled the throttle wide open ard let her go. The old engine fairly ate up the track, When we stopped at Emporia, I looked back a mile or so and saw something black approach- ing us. I| could not think what it was. 1 watched it closely. Finally it came up opposite the engine and stopped. It was the shadow of the train.”—Kansas City Journal. Poor Quality of Blood A Frequent Cause of Consumption, Heart Failure and Other Constitutional Dis- eases—Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food as a Blood Builder. : The heart, the lungs, the stomach, the liver, the kidneys, and bowels can- not perform their functions and repair wasted tissue when supplied with blood that 3 deficient in nutritive qualities, and sooner or later the weakest organ succumbs to the attacks of disease. The indications of thin, watery blood are paleness of the lips, gums, and eye- lids, shortness of breath, weakness of heart action, and languid, despondent feelings. These symptoms are. usually accompanied by nervousness, sleepless- Scated ness, and general weakness of the body. |; It is positively useless to doctor the symptoms, and injurious to use opiates or stimulants. Cure can be brought about gradually and certainly by the use of Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food, which contains in condensed pill form all the elements required for strengthening and revitalizing the blood. Asa blood builder and nerve restorative, Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food is of inestimable ‘ralue.
