Men sometimes dream of enormous
wealth stored In the earth, below tha
reach of miners, but according to the
statements of Frof. 0. R. Van Ulse at
the Ienver meeting of the American
Associativa for the Advancement of
Science, there Is little or no ground to
believe that valuable metallic deposits
lie very deep In the earth's crust Such
deposits, be said, are made by under
ground waters, and owing to the pres
sure on the rocks at great depths, the
waters are confined to a shell near the
surface. With few exceptions, ore de
posits become too lean to repay work

In September the hunters and trap

the snowy and pathless woods and
along the banks of frozen rivers and
streams. Bears, beavers, otters, minksv
martens, foxes, wolves and wolever

caught In their traps, and the man who
can accumulate a good store of tbe
furs of any of these animals Is well re
warded for his hard winters work.
But the greatest prize, which all seek
and comparatively few get Is tbe rare
black fox, of which only about half a
dozen are killed In a season, whose soft
robe Is worth from J200 to $300 to the
trapper who takes It From twenty
five to forty silver-gray foxes are
caught In a season; their pelts bring
from $100 to $200 apiece. The prices
of bear pelts vary from $10 to $25; of

$1.50 to $3; of marten from $3.50 to

NO CHANGE IN ALMANACS.
Same Style, Fame Snbject Matter In
Them for Many Generations.
"What I'd like to see," remarked the
druggist on the corner, "Is a family al
manac filled with half-tone pictures. It
would be a novelty to soothe the eyes
and mind. We, who have gone through
many years at this business and have
had ample time to digest the countless
free almanacs devoted to the relief of
all bodily ills and 'sure guides to
health,' know the average almanac
from cover to cover. The wood-cuts
that decorate some of them were made
for oar granddaddies and are as fa
miliar to their fading visions as they
sre Interesting to our own children. I
recall perfectly the almanac of by
boyhood.

It bad an address to tbe sick and a ta
ble showing the mean time of diges

Then followed a choice variety of an
cient Jokes, Interspersed with the sun
and moon pbases for every month, each
day being marked with such phenom
ena and important events, such as
'Swedenborg born' or 'Kansas admit
ted.' At tbe bead of each month was a
woodcut representing some timely re
minder or scene of the month men
tioned. For Instance, January was
generally depicted with snow-covered
ground and woodsmen felling huge
trees. February showed tbe farmers
threshing grain In an open barn.
March displayed the arrival of the
seeds and April the sowing of them.
For Mar we bad a woman and chil
dren working In the garden planting
potted flowerj and in June the farmers
were gathering the first of their crop.
July showed a boy fishing In a pond,
with a stately bouse and fine-looking
windmill at bis back. August illus
trated tbe gra'n-cuttlng time and Sep
tember gathering of apples, pears and
other tree fruit. Then came the bar
vest of corn for October, a shooting
scene for chilly November and a warm
fireside with a giant Christmas tree
for bleak December.
"Tbe odd thing now about thia old
fashioned almanac Is this: Go over to
the next drug store yon meet and pick
up the first almanac you can lay bands
to. Ton will be surprised to note tha
marked similarity between tbe old and
the new. The latter is made up of tbe
features I hare mentioned as being In
tbe old, even to tbe 'unsolicited testi
monials selected from thousands re
ceived,' the table for foretelling tbe
weather throughout each year, and
perhaps the latest postage laws.
"It Is said that everything changes In
this blessed world of ours," said tbo
druggist, accusing to the New York
MsII and Express, "but I have never
known tbe average almanac to shed its
old time Ideas. That Is why I sigh for
a modern almanac with half-tone pic
tures." '

African' Lion Killed at

FIrat Shot.
AnEngllahman who lived many years
In Africa relates a thrilling experience
which befell his family there. His
home at the time was In the edge of
the Transvaal wilderness, aud It was
there that the event occurred,
On evening about dusk my wife aud
child were sitting on tb veranda of
the bungalow. I was engaged a few
roda away, putting the finishing touch-
to a bit of wagon-repalrlug. The
servants were at the rear of the house.
It was one of those peculiarly quiet
evenings when nothing seems to break
the stillness. .
Suddenly I felt rather than saw.
something moving near the veranda. I
looked more closely, and to my horror
perceived an enormous lion stealing
along tbe ground in the direction of my
wife and child. My wife saw the crea
ture at the same Instant and despite,
her terror, fortunately remained per
fectly motionless and silent
Scarcely knowing what to do, I hasti
ly crept toward the side at the bunga
low to the open window of my room,
where I knew a loaded rifle w as leaning
against the wall. I cllaioed Iu at the
window, seised the rifle and leaped by
another window out upon the Veranda.
There was no time to think; the lion
wss within a few feet of my dear ones
and crouching for a spring. I called
softly to my wife not to move, and then
fired. ' -
The ball passed directly over my
boy's head and lodged In the forehead
of the Hon, Immediately above the eyes,
and stretched him on the ground.
There was an Instant of fearful sus
pense. Then I fired again, but the sec
ond bullet was not necessary, for the
Hon had been killed at the first shot

Since the days wf tb English built

quite a number of 'cars bava passed
through the gates of Sandrlughaut for

The majority of his cars, however,
have boon Coventry Daimlers In tha

the very necessary example of encour
aging the home ludustry. The last car
tupplled him wa a great, roomy, com
fortable vehicle, principally destined
for use at shooting parties and similar
fuuctlons, and known as the beaters'
car. This, however. Is entirely over
shadowed by the splendid carriage
which they are building for him at tha
present moment, particulars of which
are now published tor tbe first tints.
The car. which Is a Coventry Daimler,

ed up to twenty-four miles an hour.
The car Is unquestionably the most
luxurious ever constructed, tha body
differing materially from tbe ordinary
form. ,
The tonncau, which Is ot tbe roomiest
and most comfortable description, Is
deslgued to bold six passengers and
the seats are built considerably above
the two In front intended for tbe use
ot tbe mechanician and an attendant,
in order that the passengers may ob

which may be drawn at will.

DOGS AS SCOUTS
Would Be Useful In FlhtlnB Natives
of J auale Countries.
Captain Steele, of the Sixth Infan
try, after an experience of tbe condi
tions ot warfare In the Philippines,
strongly urges that dogs sbould b at
tached to the army. Iu the Army aud
Navy Journal he expresses the opin
ion that dogs are the ouly scouts that
can secure a small detachment against
ambush on the trails 'hrough these
tropical Jungles.
Tbe bush ia so dense that Annkers
are out of the question; and trails are
so crooked and over such rough ter
ritory that tbe point at one or two
huudred yards, la out of slgbt ot tha
main party. The lusurgeuts, lying In
ambush usually, or ofteu, let tbe point
pass and open with a volley UKu the
wagons aud main body of tbe escort
They open from apparently Inipen
trable Jungle, and at a range from
thirty to two hundred yards.- Tbey
fire one or two volleys, then usually
run away. Sometimes ucver a man
of them can be seen.
The dogs, pointer or bounds, would
need little training. Their Instincts
for hunthis and snillliiiir In every boio
and corner would be sufficient to Jus
tify their use.
Captain Steele possesses a dog nam
eu Done, and asserts that up to the
date of writing no detachment, with
which It has beeu out has fallen Into
an ambuscade.
He went with us last winter, on
General Schwan's long southern ram-

This wss the can of Mr. Eli Wilt
shire, of landsdowne Terrace, Calne,
Wis., who, during this time, suffered
tbe most intense aKony. He writes:
"I heartily endorse the testimonials
which yoa publish of Ht. Jacobs Oil as
a pain killer, for I have ren a sniTorer
from thenmatistn and kindred com
plaint at different . times during the
last twenty years. I have been laid
prostrate with rheumatic fever sis times
during that period, therefore I consider
I know something about rheumatism.
During atl of those twenty year I have
tried various advertised rheumatic rem
edies, oils, ointments and embrocations.
None of tl.em gave me relief, but when
I tried St. Jacobs Oil I found it eated
the pain almost immediately, and has
done (or me what all other remedies
put together never befran to do.
"I could give yoa several eases that
have been cured, which have come un
dor my notice, and through my recom
mendation ; one of bxithnche, one of
facrai-be and one of sore throat.
"I have recommended St. Jacobs Oil
and shall continue to do so by every
means in my power, as I consider you
deserving."
Trying to Explain.
"Josiar," said Mrs. Corntassel,
"what ia these neglijay shirts I
advertsed in the bargain sales7'
"Well, they ain't quite so prim an'
scratchy as a b'ilod shirt. I reckon a
neglijay is what you might call a soft
h'iled shirt."
