James T. Macon, in
AlmoBt for the first time since wo j
were a boy-today October 1SJ05
we have been reading her? ami there
in "Tho Lady of the Lake." .Many of
our readers will tenderly remember
Kllen Douglas, as described by Sir
Walter Scott, in this poem. Her
father and her lover in disgrace polit
ically and in prison, she w^ka thc
street? of jrroud Edinburgh, a forlorn,
trembling, helpless stranger.
Suddenly she mocts a noblo-iook
ing stranger, in knihgtly apparel,
wearing a black, gold-embroidered
bonnet, with a white plume waving
from \h. He hears her story and
tolls lid' ho bad known her and her
father in their days of freedom and
happiness, in their highland home.
He gives her sympathy and counsel
and promise.!* to go with her to thc
King of Scotland, with whom ho will
use his influence to obtain tho rcloaso
of her father and her lover. They
walk together along the streets of
Scotland's historio capital, and come
to Holyrood Palace-home of ancient
Scottish Kings. Poor Ellen shrinks
and trembles at tho thought of ap
proaching the King. She is a modest
mountain maid, not uued to crowns
and courts 9nd heralds. Her foot is
more ab home treading the purplo
heather on tho mountain side than the
burnished floors of a royal palace.
4tIIow shall I know tho King? I
have never seen him!" she erica in
much mental perturbation and dis
tress.
"All will be uncovered, except ihe
King; ho alone will wear his bonnet,"
was the answer of her knightly
guide.
The palace doors are strangely and
quickly thrown open, RS the approach,
and they enter. And poor Ellen
Douglas, raising her eyes timidly,
locks on ?mon of princely part, OB
honorable counsellors, on warriors and
ssgeB. Stars and ooronets, and be
gemmed ribbons meei her gaze.
There is not one, however, that is
covered; no ono wears his bonnet.
Where is tho King? Who is tho
King? She looks up suddenly and
imploringly to her guide. Ho alone
wears hat and plume. Ah, the
grateful truth flaohCB upon her! Her
guide is the King I
Who then is the King?
He is a man-be who refused to be
called the ion of Pharaoh's daughter
and esteemed the reproach of Ghrist
greater riohes tban the treasure? of
Egypt-who gave up his place of ease
?nd honor and luxury in the house
hold of a great King, to identify him
self with serfs and bondsmen of his
own race. Gan you find an instance
of sublime self-renuuoiatioo to excel
this? He infused hope into the
hearts of men who were broken in
spirit and humiliated by a bondage
of four hundred years. Surely a

Fat is of great account
to a baby ; that is why
babies are fat. If your
baby is scrawny, Scott's
Emulsion is what he
wants. The healthy baby
stores as fat what it does
not need immediately 'for
bone and muscle. Fat
babies are happy ; they do
not cry ; they are rich ;
their fat is laid np for
time of need. They are
kaPPy because they are
comfortable. The fat sur
rounds their little nerves
and cushions them. When
they are scrawny those
nerves are hurt at every
ungentle touch. They
delight in Scott's Emul
sion. It is as sweet as
wholesome to them.

A Three Forks Cock Tail.
"I was standing in the barroom at a
resort at Three Forks," said a travel
ing man, according to the Anaconda.
Standard, "waiting for the proprietor
to arrive, iu the hope of placing a
small order. While I was waiting
two cowboys, .wrapped in fur coats,
their own dignity and a reputation as
tho top riders in tho country which
stretches away toward the head of
Willow Creek, came into the saloon,
and, marching up to the bar demand
ed a cocktail.
"The bartender looked nonplussed
a moment, but he was not to be'ahut
out, so ho grabbed the biggest glass
ho could find behind the bar and im
mediately got busy. If there waa
anything there he missed putting into
that glass, from the salt and pepper
sause uBed to flavor the boer to the
sn'opings from the ends of the cigars
\7 ih he found in the cigar cutter, I
oould not seo it, and when he had
finally finished he had two big beer
glasses full of the misture.
"The boys both tasted the beverage
and it did not taste good. Each had
unlimbered a big gun, and, playfully
toying with the weapons, they sug
gested that the bartender drink his
own mixture. It required some per
suasion, but finally ta avoid trouble,
he swallowed the contents of both
glaoues. 'Now, mako your will, you
would-be poisoner!' shouted the punch
ers, and solemnly they put their guns
back where they belonged, treated the
house to cigars and faded away into
the distance, their horses hitting only
the high spots as th.?y disappeared up
the valley.
"And I tell you the impromptu
bartender had good reason to make
hie will. For three or four hours he
wes (he siokest man I ever saw, and
it took the service of a doctor, who
worked over him for an hour or two,
to bring him baok to life again."

Making Farming Pay. ?
On Friday of last week eight "white
hiokory" wagons, drawn by sixteen
superb mules, the property of Simon
Brown's Sons, were driven on the
scales at the cotton platform and
weighed; then they went to the Oaks,
the farm of Col, Alfred Aldrich? and
loaded with 14,000 pounds of splendid
Aldiioh prolific white eora on the eob,
and, returning to the scales, weighed
again and drove off in prooesaion to
Blackville, ten miles distant. This
oom was grown OD a 40-aere field of
com and cotton, from whioh 15,000
pounds of oom were sold to the Hill
Top stables, 7*000 pounds to the E?St
erling, Patterson Company, and 5,000
pounds to other parties, making a
total of 40,000 pounds, sold at 70o a
bushel, and, at the same time,, oom
enough to ruo the farm for thu com
ing year has been reserved.
The same field of forty sores has
produced 20,000 pounds of seed cot
ton, whioh is liable to bring 12o a
pouod, as none of it, we. leam, has
yet been sold.
This kind of farming pays, and
when it beoomes more general, pros
perous farmers will be the rule and

in tho state of Durango.
Lather For Shriving.
It ia commonly assumed that soap is
used in shaving for thc purpose of sof
tening the hairs. This, however, lt
seems, is a mistake. It is used, on
the contrary, to render them bard, dry,
st?"jd brittle, in which condition
??iey /est yield to the blade. Ilalr be
ing .- -milly olly, the razor would
either ;.?lp over the limp bair without
cuttln ; it, or entering about half way
bena the hair back and slice it length
wise,? all the while straining lt most
painfully at the root, and ns a razor
would thus slice and pull probably a
number of hairs at once the pain pro
duced would be intense. Most shav
ing soap contains a free alkali, either
potash or soda, which combines with
and so removes the oil of the hair,
leaving only the hard fiber, dry and
stiff, as may be seen by inking a solu
tion of carbonato of soda and dipping
a singlo hair Into it.
Thc Deep Sea Lend,
In order to lind a ship's position
?when approaching the laud in a fog
soundings aro taken with the "deep sea
lead." This lead weighs twenty-eight
pounds and is attached to a line which
is marked off lu fathoms by bunting of
various colors, pieces of leather and
knots. Bored In tho base of the lead
is a bole about two Inches deep, and
this is filled with tallow, so that the
gravel or shells nt the*ocean bottom
will adhere to it, and the nature of the
bed may be thus ascertained. When
tho lead is thrown overbonrd the wa
ter's depth is noted on tho line, and
this and the adherence to the tallow
when compared with the description
given on the chart will give the ship's
position with tolerable accuracy.
Thc FamoiM Mameluken.
The mamelukes were a body of sol
dier.* who ruled Egypt for several hun
dred years. Their name is derived
from au Arab word which means slave,
and they were originally captives from
Caucasian countries. In the middle of
the thirteenth century they were intro
duced into Egypt as the sultan's body
guard, but upon the accession of Turan
Shah, whom they hated, {hey over
threw him and elected one of them
selves in bis place. For nearly 800
years they held the power thus usurp
ed, and even -when compelled to resign
lt they had much Lu^uence in- Egypt.
In 1811 nearly all the mamelukes were
massacred by Mohammed Ali, and
those who then escaped to Mobla were
destroyed in 1820. - . ? fi . ?
The Pillara of liv- alco.
The "Pillars of Hercules" was the
name anciently given to the mountains
of Calpe and Abyla, standing opposite
to each other, tho one on the European
and the other on. the African shore of
the strait which connecta the M?diter
ranean sea with the Atlantic ocean.
The mountains are now called the
Rock of Gibraltar and Jebel Zatant,
The word Gibraltar, which Ia at pres- i
ent also applied to the strait, was.
originally "Jebel Tarie," or "Mountain
of Tarlo," Tarlo being the name of the
leader of the first Mohammedan band
which crossed nt tbet point over into
Spain in the year A. D. 710.

Ilurxua'M Natural llagact.
There 1? a huge natural magnet lu
upper Uurnia, India, ?overed with
great blocks of iron ore, which travel
ers notice lias a tremendous attraction
which renders compenses and watches
useless. In Spain there is a spring of
water said to cure lovesick people. An
other cjueer spring is situated in Mex
ico the waters of which cure ulcohoiic
eiavlngs, so the legend runs. Hinter
mountain, near Fort Davis, Tex., pro
duces un effect which would counter
act Ll?e good work done by the Mexican
spring, with none of the evil effects.
I'eople go up this mountain, and they
suddenly become conscious of a sort of
unaesthetic which takes possession of
theni and makes thuin act as if intox
icated. If u traveler reaches the top, he
staggers like au old toper, and many
have been known to fall in u stupor on
the rocks. This mountain bas a fol
lowing which returns seuss*) after sea
son to enjoy this harmless dissipation.
What Not to Lend.
Douglas Jerrold, tho celebrated wit,
said: "There are three things that no
man but a fool lends, or, having lent,
is not in the most helpless state of
mental crassitude If. ho ever hopes to
get back again. These three things aro
books, money and umbrellas. I believe
a certain fiction of the law assumes a
remedy against the borrower, but I
know o? no case in which any man, be
ing 8ufllclently dastard to gibbet bis
reputation as plaintiff lu such a suit,
ever fairly succeeded against, the whole
some prejudices of society. Umbrellas
muy be 'hedged about* by cobweb stat
ute]. I will not swear that lt Is not so.
There may be laws that make such
things property, but I am sure that the
hissing contempt, the loud mouthed in
dignation, of all civilized society would
Bib J in te and roar at tl ie bloodless pol
troon who should engage law on bis
side to obtain for him the restitution of
a lent umbrella."
Tho Painter Won.
Often have painters and sculptors
discussed the relative merits of paint
ing and sculpture. A story ls told of
an artist who resented the disparaging
comparisons made by a sculptor and
laid a wager that be could within a
given time paint a picture which should
display the human figure as complete
ly as any sculptor could.
The wager was accepted, and upon the
appointed day a painting was produc
ed which fulfilled all the conditions. It
represented a warrior, his back to tho
spectator, bending over a sheet of wa
ter, in the limpid surface of which were
reflected his entire face und form. To
the right a suit of polished armor bung
and threw back a full length profile
image, while a mirror performed a
like office for the left side. The sculp
tor, of course, handed over the money
staked.-Paris Journal.

Fortune Seed.
A penny may seem to you a very
insignificant thing. But it is the
um ali aced from which fortunes i
spring. .
It you want to raise a flower you
get the seed, plant it in thc best soil
available and do all that you eau to
encourage its growth. You may be
fortunate enough to proourc a half- '<
grown plant, but some time, some i
where, somebody planted the seed. 1
Tho penny is the seed of that won- '
derful growth which the best of us '
cannot help admiring and for which all
of us more or less ardently long-the <
fortune plant. i
If you would have one of these i
plants of your own. If you dream of
sitting at ease under ita branohea ia i
your old age, go about growing it in a 1
rational way and in conformity with
the fixed laws of nature. | <
Treat the diso of copper-1 cent- j
with thoreppeot that afortuno seed'
deserves. | ?
Nature is the greatest of all teach- J
era, but many of us fail to see the
significance of the facts which oho BO
quietly but BO inaistently plaoea be

If one who baa received a comfort
able salary for five or ten years sud
denly finds himself out of a position,
with no money aaved up, he is pretty .
sure to blame his "luck," instead of
sensibly realising that experience is
putting before him in the moat con.
vinoiog manner a lesson he needs to
learn by heart.
If, instead of bemoaning his "luck,"
he will listen he will beera still, small
voioo whispering to him of pennies
and nickola and dimes and dollars
which/ have been nob wisely aown,
but scattered on the winds and wast
ed. '
Money spent in legitimate pleasure
need never be regretted. Such in
dulgences bestow delightful memories
that comfort even in tho cruelest
hardships.
Suppose that at 20 one should make
& vow to put away at least'5 osnts a
day and not touch his savings for 70,'
years. From thiB investment, so
small that he would scarcely miss it,
he would have at 30 the sum of
$182.50 to his credit.
This is little? YOB; this is the
smallest thing he has gained.
