WONDERS IN GRAIN OF SAND
Remarkable Comblnatloni When Seen
Beneath the Powerful Qlaee of
Even Ordinary Microscope.
A handful of wind, trickling through
the fingers In hard, dry grains, appears
to the naked eye merely as a collec
tion of tiny stones. Many of tbe grains
nre little stones ground by the action
of Hip tides from the faces of the great
cliffs against which the waves dash;
but others are very different affairs.
If you spread a pinch of sand on
piece of white paper, and look at It
through a magnifying glass, you will
have a surprise. Many of the grains
are shells consisting of turns and spi
rals as perfect as those of the whelk
or the periwinkle, but so tiny that
without the aid of a glass the eye
cannot see them.
They are made by a class of minute
creature that swarm In the waters,
and as the animals die their shells
ar washed up by the tide to form
sand. In course of time they become
welded Into masses of stone, and as
the centuries pass by they form great
rocks. Many of our mightiest moun
tain ranges are made of nothing but
the shells of these tiny creatures.
Adventure With Pigmy Rattlesnake.
Dr. It. W. Shufeldts writes in
Natnreland: A few months ago a
friend, residing In Florida, sent me
a beautiful live specimen of this
snake, which was of a fine ash
gray color, marked with medlum
nized, more or less rounded black
blotches. A number of small buttons
made up Its rattle, which could be dis
tinctly heard at a distance of eight or
ten feet In a quiet room. On one occa
sion I came very near being hitten by
It, ns I was not aware thnt It could
coll Itself tip tightly when on a hard,
smooth surface, and then by a peculiar
muscular action throw Itself clear of
the ground, and for several feet In any
direction it wished. It nearly got me
In the band as I was about to take it
tip to pose it for Its picture. I know
of n Instance where death has fol
lowed the bite of this reptile, but that
this would be the result, were no at
tempt made to treat the wound, theie
cannot be a shadow of doubt.
Medieval Coins.
Many of the medieval coins were
far larger and more ornate than any
Ipmics today. The die cutting was not
only more elaborate, but in much high
er relief. Some of the German coins
of the Seventeenth century were 4
Indies In diameter and contained one
pound of silver. Coins such as these
of ihe 10-thaler size nre to be found in
many collections, and the coins of the
2, 8, 5-th al er or dollar size are in many
cases not especially rare and can be
obtained In almost mint state for rea
sonable prices. In many cn-e silver
cups and plates were cut up In sec
tions about equal In weight to $2.oO
pieces and these rnde plancbets were
counter-stamped In the corners and
center with punch marks of crests and
..nuts of arms. There was a common

GOT IDEA FROM "PITCHMEN"
Humble Beginning of Career of Man
Who Founded One of Greatest
Department Stores.
The vendors of small articles sold
on the street after a "spiel" and dem
onstration are known as "pitchmen,"
According to an article In a recent
number of a popular weekly, this In
dustry was begun in 18C9 in New York
city. A newsboy by the name of
Stovers got hold of some knives that
had become slightly rusty, at a bargain
price and sold them for a quarter,
making 200 per cent profit for himself,
lie saw an opportunity to duplicate his
feat by getting more knives,- which he
did, biit soon the available stock was
exhausted.
He associated a partner with him
self, and sold lead pencils In the same
way. The partner's name was "Dutchy"
Lehman. In a short time profits, of
$6,000 had accumulated. Lehman con
iflered their luck a temporary thing.
and took his share of the profits.
$3,000, to Chicago, and with it opened
a miniature department store, using 1
similar tactics as the "pitchmen ny
displaying goods on open tables. Imme
diate and Increasing success crowned
his efforts, and the business expanded
into what Is now one of tbe largest
department stores in the world.
Died Listening to His Bells.
l imerick has one of tbe most beautl-
j ful peals of bells in the world. They
! were made in Italy by a young work
man, who, after the toll of many years
produced a peal of bells which were
so perfect In tone that even his critical
judgment was satisfied. The bells were
hung In a neighboring convent, but
In the course of years war swept across
that part of the land, and the bells
(vara Inst.
Misfortune overtook the bell-founder,
and he left his native land, wandering
about the world for years. Then, hear
ing that his bells had been taken to
Limerick, he set out to hear their sweet
tones once again. As his vessel sailed
up the Shannon, borne upon the even
ing air from the towers of the cathe
dral came the music of his bells. He
went forward and snt listening, his
gazf fixed upon tbe distant cathedral,
but when the vessel came to anchor,
and they went to him, he was dead.
Retire on Her Savings.
Someone has estimated that if a
married woman, during a period of 30
years married life, has attended to
the ordinary duties of the household,
she has served nearly 500,000 meals,
has put up more than 3.000 jars of
preserves, devoted about 35.000 hours
tn Rweenine. washing and scrubbing,
nnd so on at some length.
Then this
investigator has figured that at ao-
cented prices for this work, it Is worth
' ,.w.,i,iv over S100KK). and he
asks the question, "Why cannot she
retire on her savings?" And he an-
gwers his own question by asking an-
other one, as follows : "How do you
define the ordinary woman s oiuinnu
tions to her family wealth?"
Curious Fact as to Vision.
It Is reported that experiments have
been made to show that objects seen
by indirect vision ordinarily appear
larger in the right half of tbe field of
vision than in the left. With a smnller
number of persons this is reversed.
From these facts has Iwen deduced a
possible origin of right and left hand
edness. Right-handedness, or Its re
verse, develops at about the age" of
seven months. It has been suggested
that they may be due to the phenome
non of vision just described. Hy a
reflex effect the infant reaches after
the objects best seen with the arm
nearest to them. '
Strategic Finance.
"I know a man who would be willing
to contribute liberally to your cam
paign fund."
"Take him around to the opposition
nnd let them convert him," said Sena
tor Sorghum. "If we can roll up I
enontrh contributions for 'em maybe
they'll get enough money to start
scandal and defeat Jliemselves."
