Near Chocaya, In Bolivia, there is the
Veta del Cuadro mine, where silver ore
is extracted 13,060 feet above sea level,
while the same metal Is wrought near
Peopo, In the Cordilleras, 12,400 feet
above tide water. The produce from
all these is carried on mule back over
tremendous mountain pathB to points
where It can be placed on rail or be
concentrated Into more portable form
for further transit by wagon to the
seaboard.—Stray Stories.
Cool Garden Sluta.
A glacier when it dislodges itself
and sails away over tbe Arctic ocenn
never travels alone. In tbe wake of
every large one floats a line of smaller
companions.
The Eskimos call tbis phenomenon
"the duck and ducklings," and any
one who has watched the progress of
the elder duck followed by her brood
will appreciate the aptitude of tbe
name.
Strange as It may seem, plants grow
and blossom upon these great ice
mountains. When a glacier isnt rest,
moss attaches itself to it, protecting
the Ice beneath, Just as sawdust does.
After a time the moss decays and
forms a soil. In which the seeds of
buttercups and dandelions, brought by
the wind, take root and flourish.
Those who have traveled in arctic
lands say they have found no point
yet where the poppy does not bloom
during the brief northern summer.
Tbe Skin.
Bathing to many persons is a term
embodying an expenditure of time and
considerable trouble. It is probably
because they do not cleanse the skin
until it gives visible signs of Its needs.
Now, the Bkln Is everlastingly throw
ing oft Impurities which you cannot
always see with the naked eye, but
which will be readily found In the ap
pearance of the bath water even when
one bathes each day. When you can
wear a white collar a few hours with
out marring its spotlessness where it
comes In contact with the skin, you
may have some excuse for thinking
that you are perfectly clean and not
before. The neatest person I ever saw
could not boast of such an achieve
ment, for the thing is well nigh im
possible. Nature has provided the
pores for drainage purposes, and In
health they work without ceasing.—

The Singing Mouse.
The power of song among the brute
creation has so long been associated
In our minds with the feathered tribe
alone that we do not think of it as be*
longing to any four footed animals.
Yet there Is a mouse that sings—why,
nobody knows. It Is a small animal,
with very large ears, which are moved
about much while singing, as If that
were necessary to the success of the
Yocal performance. The song is not,
as yots think, a prolonged squeak with
variations, but a succession of clear,
worbUng notes, with.trills, not unlike
the song of a canary,' and quite as
beautiful, though some of the notes
are much lower. One great peculiarity
a sort of double song, an air~wjth
accompaniment quite subdued. Upfcn
first hearing this one believes that
is listening to more than one mouse,
so perfect the illusion.

Mines on Mountain Tops,
Nothing In engineering is more ro
mantic or curious than tbe fashion in
which tbe ordinary conception of a
mine as an openlug penetrating far be
low tbe ordinary level is reversed
where Inducements oiler to climb blgh
above the earth's surface before pierc
ing luto it
There Is, for'instance, the Eureka
gold mine, probably the highest in the
world, situated 14,000 feet up In tbe
kndes range, not far from the city of
Jujuy, In 'Argentina. So high is this
mine that It Is only worked with great
difficulty owing to the "mountain sick
ncBs" and to similar troubles to wlik-h
workers at this Immense altitude, al
most three miles in the air, are sub
ject.
A young man who spent his summer
vacation on a Maine farm says tbat
new instauces of the thrift and shrewd
ness of his landlady are constantly
thrusting themselves upon bis atten
tion.
One day a wagon load of unexpected
relatives descended on tbe farm, and
the mistress was, as she afterward
frankly said, "put to it" to provide
enough food for dinner. She brought
forward among other things an apple
pie which seemed to the boarder far
Inferior to the pics she usually made.
But when she served it she spoke of
her reputation as a piemaker.
"They do say at the soclablcs that
nobody's pies quite come up to mine,"
she remarked, with a beaming smile,
"aud apple pies are whut you might
call my specialty. I've often been
asked for the recipe, but I tell 'em it's
knack and judgment does it, not rule."
Tbe pie disappeared, and then, when
ber guests Mere not as hungry as they
had been, she brought forth a second
pie, flaky of crust aud luscious to the
taste.
"Why, Aunt Mary," said the youn
gest of the party, a boy of twelve, "I
think this pie's ever so much better
than the other, and you haven't said
word about it!"
His aunt looked at him without so
much as twinkle in her eyes.
"This one will go down without
pralslug, I reckon," she said gravely.
The Necessity of Mystery.
To be coutcnt in utter darkness and
ignorance is indeed unmanly, and
therefore we think that to love light
and find knowledge must be always
right. Vet (as iu all matters before
observed) wherever pride has any
share in the work even knowledge aud
light may be ill pursued. Knowledge
is good and light is good, yet man
perished in seeking knowledge and
the moths perish in seeking light, and
if we who are crushed before the
moth will not accept such mystery as
is needful to lis we shall perish in like
manner. None but the proud will
mourn over this, for we may always
know more if we choose by working
on, but the pleasure is, I think, to
humble people in knowing that the
jouruey is endless, the treasure inex
haustible.—"Lamps of Architecture,"
Ruskin.
The Inevitable.
Do as 1 tell you," Tommy's mamma
cried. "It's ubout time you realized
the futility of 'struggling against the
inevitable. Do you know what that
means?"
Yes'm," replied Tommy. "It means
there's no use o' your washln' my
hands an* face 'cause they'll only get
dirty again."
His Taste.
The landlady was speaking.
"Mr. Barnstorme. how do you like
your eggs?"
The tragedian's face relaxed into an
expression of joy.
"Hard boiled!" he cried. Until that
moment people had willfully mistaken
his taste.—Baltimore Herald.
