Terrible W*<Mlag C«k« r«.f>«iirurrs.
A puriy of jounjf ladies on m Wood-
wni\t avenue street car umijiHed the
etlier imwieugt'ra very muvh by thoir
Jiaive confessions of - sleeping with
weikliug cakeititder Oieir pillows tlie
previous night. They were relating
their dreams. A sleepy eyed niistv
vrlio strangled various sise<lyawns, re-
lated her unann.
ir-'VGIrla, would you Indieve it, I had
iVot .the least idea of dreaming any-
'thing in the world, and I dre&mod
that I was at a Uiirty and a wild kail-
^ garpo witli a tall silk hat asked mo to
dance, and the horrid thing squorv/ed 1
- my hand, and I was so frightened T
woke right up, and then I-au-yaw-aw
—excuse me—ate the^piece of cake
that was under the pillows. n ' >
“I hud an awful dmim, too,’’ re
lated another of the ^irls. “I dreamed
something was ninmug over ino that
hod cold slipjiery feet and when I
iotfbhed it the thing bit me* and then
I dreamed the house was full of Xur-
glars, and in the molrumg the case-—
wasn’t — under—my—pillow--it—was
—gone I” «. -
i “What took itt” asked the girls*
breathlessly.
“Mouse r * •, r'?*?:
Then they all smothered a shriek
and got out together.—Detroit Free
Press.
Gold ■ Drug lu the Slaifent.
There are sbrmrcoinforhibh! features
about Helene, the Montana metK)]>o1ts,
which would bo appreciatotl further
“Cast. The city is built mainly in the
celebrated * * I xist: 'Chance Gulch, n
which yielded in years past more
than thirty million dollars in gokl
dust. The abundance of the precious
metal led the miners into shift!c-ss’
ways, and the washing of the dirt wins
carelessly done, leaving considerable
yellow dust in the ground.
When excavating for a house now
(lie soil removed is again treated, with
the result usually of linding enough
gold to materially help pay' for the
walls. It is said that a gentleman, a
resident, with an eye to thrift, has pro
vided the foot scrai>er at his dwelling
with a rocepiuble to catch the drop-
piugs, and onoe a month he has s~
“clean up” which about pays his rent.
Huchopportunities would excite atten
tion in other cities, but the vast out-
—jmt of the neighlioring mines edn-
►tantly pouring into Helena so gorges
the town with gold and silver that
they have become almost a drug ou
the market.—New York Star.

A Treat f«»r Ilia Gum Inn.
A Wasbinirtpii st
”fFoK a cafe ha»' done a go»>d thing
for the street gamins. He bus a large
trade, and aa ho has hia own pies,
cakes, buns, biscuit aud bread baked
every morning fresh ho makes it a
rule not to carry over any stock. He
accordingly aunbunced that he would
dispoie of whatever was left over
every evening at 7:3a o’clock tp the
newsboys and newsgirls for a mere
Bong. If a boy lm« only a penny he
will be served bountifully.
There is no sdhle of prices. Every
fellow gets something. The boy
with a basket who has saved up a
quarter gets a haul, enough to last
several dnvs. The sight about the
cafe at the hour meutionod is an inter-
eatifcg oife. Every face beams with
satisfaction. The little newsgirls are
treated with a politeness by lJjc boys
which is eharmiiig. The girl* get
the tirst show aud are never crowned
Out of line. The eager crowd seldom
woes away disappointed. —Chicago Tri

1 have hoard a good deal nbont rail
road engineers being color blind,
fckmietimcs, ns you may know, an en-
* |pueer’a eyes become so affected that he
imagines he sees things ou the track.
But did you ever hear of an engineer
whoso cars deceived hitni Ihava. An
f ssugiueer is always ex|»«>tiiiff to hear
the aouud of a whistle. Ife listens so
much for this sound that, after years
at the throttle, ho will hear the sound
of which I sjx*akwhen there in none.
In some instances the company has
had the ears of engineers put to a test
hy eminent uuriculihts. In fact, I have
i been told that some companies have
men employed who make an examina
tion of the cars of engineers after the
engineers have been on the road a cer
tain length of time.—Interview inCJLu-
* cogo Tribune.
TStliitlng the Face In Ovid's Daj.
’Hie jxjet Ovid describes various
paints which were used by the Roman
matrons, and complained that the wo
man tried to imitate with cosmetics
the rosy complexions which health
alone epuld give. He also spoke of the
* deceitful pallor lent to their cheeks by
.white lead, and of curious methods
they had of beautifying their eyes.
Again, he mentions that a pale face
was a necessity for every woman who
jospired to be “good form.” Pliny
speaks of a concoction of flour of peas
And 'barley, eggs, harUhorn, etc.,
which fashionable women in Rotne
wore on their faces all night and part
of the day for the purpose of clearing
their skins.—Berlin Courier.
A Caterpillar Farm.
In most countries caterpillars are
regarded as a pest. In British India,
however, different ideas upon the sub
ject appear to prevail, for the entomo
logical committee of the Bombay
Natural History society has actually
gone to the length of establishing a
■great “caterpillar farm” at Poonah
lor the deliberate propagation of these
7 destructive insects.—Exchange.
Too Far Ahead for Them.
Maude—Just think t It is predicted
that in fifteen years horses will have
become so intelligent that they mav
be driven without reins.
Mabel /(regretfully)—Ves. but what
