Two boys left home with just enough money to take them through college, after which they must de pend entirely upon their own efforts. They attacked the collegiate problems successfully, passed to graduation, received their diplomas from the fae nlty, also, commendatory letters to a large ship-building firm with which ^they desired employment. Ushered into the waiting room of the head of the firm the first was given an au dience. He presented his letters. "What can you do," said the man of millions. "I would like some sort of a clerk ship." "Well sir, I will take your name and address; and if we have anything of the kind open will correspond with you." . As he passed out, he said to his companion, "You can go in and * leave your address.' " The other presented himself and his papers. . 14What can you doti' was asked. "I can do anything that a green hand can do," was the reply. The magnate touched a bell which called a superip tendent. "We want a man to sort scrap iron," replied the superintendent. And the college student went to sorting scrap-iron. One week passed, and the presi dent asked, "How is the new man getting on?" ifOh," said the boss, "he did his work so well, and never watched the ?lock, that I put him over the gang." In one year the man had reached .the head of the department, and an advisory position with the manage ment, at a salary represented by four figures, while his whilom friend was still out of employment and seeking a position.

NOT A MIRACLE Jost Plain Cause and Effect. There' are some quite remarkable things happening every day, which seem almost miraculous. Some persons would not believe that a man could suffer from coffee drinking so severely as to cause spells of unconsciousness. And to find com plete relief in-changing from coffee to Postum is well worth recording. "I used to be a great coffee drink er, so much so that it was killing me by Inches. My heart became so weak I would fall and lie unconscious for an hour at a time. The spells caught me sometimes two or three times a day. "My friends, and even the doctor, told me it was drinking coffee that caused the trouble. I would not be lieve lt, and still drank coffee until I could not leave my room. "Then my doctor, who drinks POST tum himself, persuaded me to stop coffee and try Postum'. After much hesitation I concluded to try it. Thai was eight months ago. Since then ] have had but few of those spells, none for more than four months. "I feel better, sleep better and am better every way.

Folds of the Balloon, Two Men are Rescued With Great Difficulty. Berlin, By Cable.-The St. Louis, one of the three American balloons to start in the international race, fell into the North Sea Tuesday night, be tween Heligoland and Wilhelmshav en, thirty miles from the shore. The St. Louis was piloted by E. H. Ar nold, who, with his assistant, H. J. Hewat, was rescued hy a German steamship passing at the time. Arnold and Hewat were enveloped in the folds of the balloon when res cued. They would have been forced under water in a short time. The rescue was effected with the greatest difficulty. The aeronauts did not know that they were over sea until they heard the sound of the waves, the waters being obscured by a thick fog that hung at a low level. A rapid fall in temperature caused a shrinkage of the balloon envelope and it began gradually to descend. Alarmed, the aeronauts began throwing out every thing in the balloon to lighten it, but continued to sink and finally struck the water with a splash. The men telegraphed the race committee that they were Safe and uninjured. This is the second sensational acci dent of American entrants. Shortly after the start Augustus Post and A. H. Forbes fell four thousand feet, having a miraculous escape from death. CROP CONDITIONS.

To butter a cracker and sprinkle in arith cayenne pepper will induce sleep after eating. Varnished wood should be rubbed with a chamois leather wrung out of cold water, then polished with a soft duster. An easy method of mending a lace curtain In a hurry, until time can be spared for darning it, is to cut a piece of net as near a match to the cur tain mesh as possible, dip in boiled starch, and iron over the torn part unth dry. Patent leather is always doubtful leather to buy, as no one will guaran tee how long it will wear. If the shoes are cleaned and oiled frequently with sweet oil or vas?llne they will keep in good condition and last very much longer than if they are left alone. To polish a varnished floor rub well with equal quantities of beeswax and turpentine. Another method is to take equal parts of olive oil and_splrits of turpentine, wet a soft cloth/with these, rub the wood hard, theil rub with a dry cloth.
