A cyanide leaching vat made of wood which had been in use for four years was recently tested as to the percentage of values absorbed. A hole was bored one-half inch deep in the bottom, and the shavings therefrom assayed $13 perton. Thus the absorption by wooden tanks is shown not to be as great as has been claimed. One Hall, an Oregon prospector, returned to his home recently and began smashing the furniture with an ax. When his alarmed wife, who took in “washing to support the family;-remonstrated, Hall exhibited a sack of ore literally spangled with gold, he having struck a vein of $5,000_ ore in a prospecting . tunnel. “What is your nationality?” asked the political manager. “I am an American,” was the reply. “What kind of an American—Irish, ._German,:-or _ what?” “Just a plain American.” “Sorry, but we can’t put you on the ticket,” said the political manager. ‘“You’d actually lose votes for us.” The German toy trade has fallen off greatly, and the Government has established a professional school of tosmaking at Grunhainiden.

The lord chief justice, Holt, of England, who flourished in the seventeerith century, told it of himself. As a young man, perhaps more sprightly than some, he found himself once in the gountry without any money. He went, however, boldly to the first roadside Inn and ordered bed and board. By the fireside he saw a girl shivering with ague. “Why let: your child suffer?’ he asked. “I will cure her for you in a single night.” Thereupon he wrote certain characters on a slip of paper, rolled it up in a cloth and told the girl to tie that round her neck and to go to bed, and in the morning she would be well. This she did. Well did she rest, and in the morning she was well. Holt stayed a few days at the inn, and on his departure boldly asked for his bill. “Sir,” said the hostess, “it is I who owe you, not you who owe me.” So he departed. Forty years afterward, being on circuit, he had to try a woman charged with sorcery and witchcraft. She healed sick persons miraculously, and therefore by the help of the devil. Being questioned, she acknowledged that she used’ a charm which generally worked a cure. “Let me look at it,” said the judge. She handed him a small cloth roll. Within it he found a paper with certain characters. Then the memory of his trick came back to him. “You were yourself,” he said, ‘‘qnce cured of an ague by the use of this charm?” She said that was so. Then he turned to the jury and related the whole story ~ and dismissed the poor old woman. But as for the charm, the court impounded it and the poor witch lost her power.—Detroit News.

I had been put on a diet for stomach trouble, had a good appetite but no food would stay on my stomach. I was compelled to leave off one thing after another, but never suspected coffee. When I decided to. leave off the coffee, however, my stomach trouble ceased entirely, also my nervousness, and I can again sleep well. But a new trouble then arose. How was I to get along without my coffee? It was a great temptation when I saw it on the table in the morning. One day a friend who knew of my case.sent mea package of Postum Cereal Food Coffee. After it had been prepared, I had great misgivings about using it, for it looked so much like fine coffee that I feared it would have the same effect, but I soon found it to be free from all injurious properties and its use has been of great benefit to me. “J bave never had any taste for coffee since using Postum Cereal Food Coffee. My children derive great benefit from using Pestam.We all--enjoy it-very ‘much, having discarded the old fashioned coffee entirely.” Bowen, Mont.

The Affliction Is Not Confined to Beginners Before the Footlights, but Has Been Known to Attack Players of Experience. “Of all the many ilis to which theatrical flesh is heir,” said an old physician who has a large clientele of actors, “the worst is stage fright. This is nothing less than a species of heart disease, induced by the nervous dread that one’s performance may not be successful. This naturally attacks beginners more often than old stagers, and yet instances are by no means isolated where death has been brought about through its evils, even.in the case‘of old timers. “Perhaps, however, the most pecullar instance of all was that of the veteran performer who had gone through 30 years of stage work without experiencing this malady. One night, however, he confided to a fellow player that a quite unaccountable nervousness had suddenly taken hold of him and that he did not think he could ever act again. “His comrade laughed at the notion and urged him to go on, as usual, but his astonishment may well be conceived when the poor old player went on the stage and, after making several vain efforts to speak, fell back and expired. The doctor who made the post mortem examination stated that death was due to failure of the heart’s action, évidentiy induced by the presence of an attack of stage fright. “Death is by no means an infrequent end to the trouble, and more than one ease in my own practice has ended fatally. It is not always the person whose heart is already affected who suffers -the most, elther, for-I recall one casesome years ago where a young woman whose heart I knew to be perfectly normal made her professional debut in this city. While standing in the wings awaiting her first cue she was seized with an attack of stage fright and trembled violently. “Not till she beard the line sake which was her signal for entrance did she make any effort at recovery, and then, to the surprise of those who were trying to get her In shape, she braced up and went on the stage as though she had been on the boards for years. She went through her part mechanically and without apparent consciousness of her actions, but she played the scene better than she had done at rehearsal, “At the close of her scene she came off the stage, staggered to her dressing room and sank unconscious to the floor. She never recovered from her coma, and an autopsy developed the fact that she had died of heart disease, AT SCHMIDT’S STOREROOM, Nearly opposite the Transcript Office. 3 Three Nights 3 Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Nov. 2, 3, 4.

On the occasion of the dress rehearsal it was found that he could not remeniber a line of his part,-and this so worried him that he broke down and was brought here. “For several weeks he could not speak an intelligent sen and then suddenly bis part came back. to . . him, and he could go through it, cues and all, without a break. For another full week he kept going through the lines of his part, and then developed a severe attack of brain fever, from which he came out perfectly rational, but, oddly enough, with absolutely no memory of the lines of ha play in question. “The excitement caused by stage fright is a most curious thing, and did: the opportunity present, I should like to write a treatise on the subject, for it is a fascinating one, but I am kept too husy patching up the troubles that exist to write of the troubles; which have existed.”"—New York Telegraph.

I had been put on a diet for stomach trouble, had a good appetite but no food would stay on my stomach. I was compelled to leave off one thing after another, but never suspected coffee. When I decided to. leave off the coffee, however, my stomach trouble ceased entirely, also my nervousness, and I can again sleep well. But a new trouble then arose. How was I to get along without my coffee? It was a great temptation when I saw it on the table in the morning. One day a friend who knew of my case.sent mea package of Postum Cereal Food Coffee. After it had been prepared, I had great misgivings about using it, for it looked so much like fine coffee that I feared it would have the same effect, but I soon found it to be free from all injurious properties and its use has been of great benefit to me. “J bave never had any taste for coffee since using Postum Cereal Food Coffee. My children derive great benefit from using Pestam.We all--enjoy it-very ‘much, having discarded the old fashioned coffee entirely.” Bowen, Mont.

STAGE FRIGHT FATAL MANY CASES WHERE IT BROUGHT DEATH TO THE VICTIM. The Affliction Is Not Confined to Beginners Before the Footlights, but Has Been Known to Attack Players of Experience. “Of all the many ilis to which theatrical flesh is heir,” said an old physician who has a large clientele of actors, “the worst is stage fright. This is nothing less than a species of heart disease, induced by the nervous dread that one’s performance may not be successful. This naturally attacks beginners more often than old stagers, and yet instances are by no means isolated where death has been brought about through its evils, even.in the case‘of old timers. “Perhaps, however, the most pecullar instance of all was that of the veteran performer who had gone through 30 years of stage work without experiencing this malady. One night, however, he confided to a fellow player that a quite unaccountable nervousness had suddenly taken hold of him and that he did not think he could ever act again. “His comrade laughed at the notion and urged him to go on, as usual, but his astonishment may well be conceived when the poor old player went on the stage and, after making several vain efforts to speak, fell back and expired. The doctor who made the post mortem examination stated that death was due to failure of the heart’s action, évidentiy induced by the presence of an attack of stage fright. “Death is by no means an infrequent end to the trouble, and more than one ease in my own practice has ended fatally. It is not always the person whose heart is already affected who suffers -the most, elther, for-I recall one casesome years ago where a young woman whose heart I knew to be perfectly normal made her professional debut in this city. While standing in the wings awaiting her first cue she was seized with an attack of stage fright and trembled violently. “Not till she beard the line sake which was her signal for entrance did she make any effort at recovery, and then, to the surprise of those who were trying to get her In shape, she braced up and went on the stage as though she had been on the boards for years. She went through her part mechanically and without apparent consciousness of her actions, but she played the scene better than she had done at rehearsal, “At the close of her scene she came off the stage, staggered to her dressing room and sank unconscious to the floor. She never recovered from her coma, and an autopsy developed the fact that she had died of heart disease, AT SCHMIDT’S STOREROOM, Nearly opposite the Transcript Office. 3 Three Nights 3 Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Nov. 2, 3, 4.

For another full week he kept going through the lines of his part, and then developed a severe attack of brain fever, from which he came out perfectly rational, but, oddly enough, with absolutely no memory of the lines of ha play in question. “The excitement caused by stage fright is a most curious thing, and did: the opportunity present, I should like to write a treatise on the subject, for it is a fascinating one, but I am kept too husy patching up the troubles that exist to write of the troubles; which have existed.”"—New York Telegraph.
