It is amusing to read some of the no

that was rich in gold, silver copper and

statement that it was fine "free milling"

made a mightly leap and the end tow
ards us bobbed up in such a manner
that if the blamed thing hud had lege
we would have believed it was trying to
kick at us. It was with some trepida
tion that we finally got the can in our
bands, and with something of a grew
some feeling that we proceeded to open
it. However, it behaved very nicely
and lay perfectly still as we cut the top
off with our jackknlfe. There was no
salmon in the can; instead it was filled
with two pounds of as good meat as ever
grew inside the hide of n bucking devil
of a cayuse. It was a piece of the- famous
old saddle horse ridden by Chief Moses,
and canned by llerrick two years ago.
Tho warm sun awakened tho natural
instincts of tho biute, which had been
preserved by the canning process, and
he was trying to buck. Salt is cheap.
One of tho pretty minor tales of myth
ology has for its subject a most beauti
ful youth named Narcissus, who was of
graceful mein, n rover of the woods, a
poetical, dreamy Eort of a fellow, who
set the wood nymphs by the ears over
his sweet self, and almost broke up the
peace and quiet of the forest, vale and
stream. To see him was to love him,
for hu was a thing of wondrous beauty.
Tho Diyads peeped out of their trees,
and tho leaves trembled with their sighs
as he passed unheeding by. The Naiads
smiled at him from running brook, and
stirred the surface of tho placid pools In
their desire to see him; and it is even
said that Venus, having cast her eves
on him, made some comparisons be
tween her husband, Vulcan, and the
gazelle-eyed youth that would have
made the old man jealous could he have
heard them. He was tall, supple, grace
ful, with a magnificent head of jet-black
hair and eyes of limped violet. Yet
with all the beauteous nymphs, and
even the goddess of oi love, gone on him,
Narcissus remained ns cold as the buows
on the summit of Olympus. Tho DryadB
ogled, but he ogled not. The Naiads
sported, hut ho wasn't sporty. Venus
wooed, but he would not. Why? Be
cause lie liaa seen his own Imago re
flected in a pool where a love-lorn Naiad
had shown it him ; ami from that mo
ment he wa9 mashed on himself. His
fate was sad, but deserved, for, stooping
to kiss his image in the pool, the treach
erous Naiad, who wan strictly up to that
date, nulled him and he wus u goner.
There are eeveral morals to this moral
tale, one of which is that in eomo things
reciprocity is better than a prohibitory
