It is all wrong to suppose that a coal or gold miner would unearth the prce'miR stones if they happened to be hi the mountains.

THE SOUTH A GOLCONDA Its Mountains Tooin with Precious Stonos mid MottUs. tlch Veins of fluid V.'hlrh Will Sonu Day Ho Opened mul Knrlcli the Country All KI;h1h or fScinx Known to Solent-'. of the mineralogieal experts of e niiuimr company recently re- One a Jar; turned to -New York after an extended trip through the south in the interest of his organization, and, in speaking about the mineral rct-mirecs of the southern states, he said: The company which 1 have been 'ravel ing for has already. made negotiations for large tracts of mineral hind along the Appalachian system, and it will make inimrdiate efforts to develop the mines. 1 have no doubt but they -will strike many unexpected fields of pre cious gems, and the country will get a. new idea of the resources of the mines of the south." Philadelphia Times. The little island of Malta has a ' ir.gurige of its own. derived from the ' arihagininu and Arabian tongues. The nobility of the island speak Italian. passed through nearly a!! -I have the mining heetioius of the south to ex amine the mineral products of the in terests of a number of capitalists, and. after a careful survey of the held, it is ir.y lioneit belief that the future min ing operations of t.his country will be in the south, instead of the west, I found the Appalachian range particti larly rich in till the auriferous and ar gentiferous orei, not only ir. Virginia, but throughout the whole length into Alabama. In Georgia the rich depos its are well known, and companies are now rapidly organizing to mine the various ores. In South Carolina the de posits of monazite (crystal. of ti rare metal known as cerium, tiF-d only in chemistry, and worth S1G0 ;m ounce) have been found so valuable that a big industry .has been built up in the Pied mont section. It is estimated that this industry is now valued nt .seventl mil lions of dollars, although it is only a few years old. When I visited the iields everybody was looking for morazite. and the business will bring in at least -$1CO,000 to the people of the Piedmont j--cticn this year. Owners of apparent Jy worthless land have let it out to con tractors at the rate of $200 an acre, and these miners make big profits besides A few years ago the owners would have ien glad to have received three or four dollars per acre for this land. "There is more gold in the south than any man ever imagined. Traces of ir crop up in the most unexpected places, and there must he .some valuable vein hidden awny in the mountains that wili some day be discovered and startle the country. ( Tipple Creek will be nothing to the southern gold fields after they have onee been located. It seems strange, hut the fact is nevertheless true, that the south lias never been thoroughly ex amined for mineral and gold products. Before the war everybody went west to find gold, and the south was ghen over to cotton, tobacco, sugar und rice. After the war dosed nothing was done for a long time to develop the indus tries of the .southern ntates, but now we are beginning to realize that a great, undeveloped field spreads out before us. There are scores of gold prospector traveling through the mountains of the south, looking for the treasures that are sure to come to light someday. Peo ple Kpenk about the future supply of gold being found in Africa! Why. more gold is buried in the Appalachian range of mountains than they will find in Africa in the next 100 years, lint the mountains are so vant, und the re gion so little known, that it will tnki time to locate the best mines even after the prospectors have been attract ed to the place. "Another thing about the southern mines ih that many of the most precious stones have been picked up at various points, and where uch jewels sin spread out on the surface you am rest assured that there are others further down under the ground. For instance, at Corundum IliJl some beautiful sup phireti hae been found. Here tiresome that 1 secured from a miner. Tlie: were not mining for sapphires, but liap pened to pick them up while mining fpr ores. Over 100 liaiiiiliires have been found at this place, and moHt of them j are valued at ?50 to .$100 and upward, i "Tne fact is that we have a cuuntrj capable of producing all the precious stone known to science, but so much Pttentlon has been given to the mining (f iron, coal, oil, silver and gold tliti' th' more precious products of the rock have been neglected. I remember dis tinctly in California, when the gold f"-.-r was lit its height, miners threw up n'verul fairly good .specimens of din nioutUs.uut iii their craze for the yellow j .cti.i jhey paid no attention to the pre ( on stonea. They knew all about gold mining, but nothing about diuuiimds. THE VALUE OF BORAX lluve About A UHofnl Article to Always tlio House. The women of Holland and Belgium, who make their linen so beautifully white, use refined borax instead of washing soda in the proportion of one large handful of borax powder to about ten gallons of boiling water. Thus they save in soap nearly half. Its ef fect is to soften the hardest water, and. therefore, it should be kept on every toilet table. It is good for eleansimr j the hair, isan excellent-dentifrice: com- i bincd with tartaric acid and bicarbon ate of soda it is a cooling bevcrcge. Good tea cannot be made with hard wa ter, but all water may be made soft by adding a teaspoonful of borax powder to an ordinary-sized kettle of water, in which it should boil. The. saving in the quantity of tea used will lie one-fifth. This Is Your Opportunity.

Ferguson, whose pic ture we give above, will not be unfamiliar by sight to many readers. A you up man, lie has Btill had an extended experience as foreign missionary, teacher, editor, lecturer and pastor that has given him a wide ac quaintance in many parts of the country. In an interview a few days ago lie said : " In the early summer of '0-1 1 went upon a tour through Canada on my wheel. My route was from Utica to Cape Vincent thence hysteamer to Kingston, anil from therealong the north shore of the lake to Toronto and around to Niagara Falls. 1 arrived at Cape Vincent at 5 o'clock, having ridden against a strong head wind all day. "After a delightful sail through the Thousand Islands, I stepped on shore in that quaint old city of Kingston. A slight shower had fallen andthustrects weredatnp, so that wisdom would have dictated that 1, leg-weary as I was, should have kept in doors, but to anxious was I to sec the old city that I spent the whole evening in the Streets. " Five o'clock the next morning brought a very unwelcome discovery. I was lame in both ankles and knees. The head wind and the damp streets had proved an unfor tunate combination. I gave, however, little thought to it, supposing it would wear off in a few hours, and the first Hush of sunlight saw me speeding out the splendid road that leads toward Nupanec. " Night overtook nieatu little village near l'ort Hope, but found me still lame. I rested the next day, and the next, but it was too late ; tho mischief was done. I rode a good many miles during the rest of the season, hut never a day and seldom a mile without pain, "Tho winter came and I put away my wheel, saying ' now I shall get well,' but to my disappointment I grew worse. Some days my knees almost forbade walking and my ankles would not permit mo to wear shoes. At times I suffered severe pain, so in whicli a good deal of space wns taken by an article 111 relation to nr. imams' I'nii; Pills. 1 did not at that time know what they were supposed to nure. I should have paid no attention to the article had I not caught the mime of a lady Whom 1 knew. Bending, I found that she, in similar circumstances, had been greatly benefited by the 'usi of Pink Pills, and knowing lier as I -did I had no doubt of the truth of the statement that she had authorized. The first box was not gone before I saw a change, and the third laid not been finished Wore all signs of my rheumatic troubles were gone to stay. " I say 'gone to stay,' for though there has been every opportunity for a return ot the trouble, I nave not felt the first twinge of it. I have wheeled thousands of mile? and never before with m little discomfort. I have had some of the most severe tests ot strength nnd endurance, and have come through them without an nclic. For ex ample, one afternoon I rode seventy miles, preached that night and made fifty miles oi the hardest kind of road before noon the next day. Another instance was a ' Cen tury run,' the lust forty miles of which were made in a downpour of rain through niuit and slush. " You should think I would recommend them to others? Well, I have, and have had the pleasure of teeing very good reeiil in a number of instances. Yest 1 should feel that 1 was neglecting a duty if I failed to suggest Pink Pills to any friend whom I knew' to he suffering from rheumatism. TI1E PKESHYTKIIIAN CI1UKCH IN WHITES.
