any cause the own r lost that much. Well,
she was lo king so that thocaptaia had to
.keep Inert lb the i tunps most of the time,
and at last the me insisted that it wasn't
,safe and f,hat th y would go baok to St.

had it up and -down with the men. Gra-
°haus! Tl ore wor all sorts:of things go-

'and Ildidi!'t! see m uch of it. • The. upshot
was We w t bac to port and several of
the Mon were erre- ted and locked up, and
pp idomen ware pu on the ehip.
' "There were thr o New England boys

it in the fear castle, and we dropped into
the boat. I ut the painter, and the next

They called o us from thotship to stop,
but eve ' co ildn't have stopped if we'd ,

and we vier right in the I current. We
dropped d[ wa to a brig bouad for Provi-

in to shore. From that I worked back to

you levant me, captain ?" There, ' said the
captain, `II knew Ciesorge hadn't been away,
have you, George?" Yes, captain,' I said,
'I helped those three fellows got away.
The Y nevbe would have made sailors, cap-
tain, and it's better they should go,' He
. was very angry, and they put me in a
boat, and the captain and two policemen
got in, and after they had out loose the
captain said, 'You must show us where
you've taken them.' But I told him it
had gone the far for that. He threatened
to put me in the calaboose, though I knew
he wouldn't. And se the boys got away
safely, and nothing more was heard of
them.
"Now Coes the odd part of that adven-
tu e. Four years ago a man called at the
exe
cutive nffice at Sacramento and asked
to see the dovernor. When he came in, .he
sa d, 'Are you George Clement Perkins?'
I aid I wale `Do you remember helping
three boys tn escape from the Lizzie Thomp-
son, CaptaM Oliver Smith?' I said I did.
'Well, I'm one of those boys,' he said. And
he was. Ho had gone back to the farm,
gone- through the war and drifted finally
out to California. I never knew how he
identified the. He is living now in San
J e, and I saw him just the other day,
41 years frem the time' helped him to run
a ay from the Lizzie Thompson."
When I asked the senator to tell sue
so nothing of Ills mining eXperlence, he
said:: "I never made much money in
mime. I have made my fortune by main
strength Mid stupidness. Amman said to
me notlongiaeo: 'You're an a fully lucky!,

I have never succeeded.' I t Id him all

In business with a trade of $2,500 a month
and made it $50,000 a month within three
years. I Made most of eny money mer-
chandising and in shipping. In mines I
have made very little. The gold mines
of Califon*: are looking as fine today as
they ever did. I know two men who are
taking out $250,000 worth of ore a month,
snd 1200,000 is clear profit, A year or two
ago you could have bought the mine for
$200,000. There are a dozen Mines in Cal-
ifornia peilhaps doing just as well. But
eight out of ten men who go to the mines
aro loeers, I have lost a, great deal of
meney in mines, chiefly- through furnish-
ing supplies to miners."
I asked the senator if he bad speculated

"I neVeri bought a share of stock in my
life for speeulatien," he said. "In fact, I
never gembled a dollar in nay life. I was
tempted very strongly one day, when I

and I stood by the gaming I table and fig

Saltpeter For Curing Meat.
The use of saltpeter by rhibbing it into
the surface of cured meatslis not genera
ally understood as it sho-uld be. &me
say that it makes the Meat sweeter.
Really the saltpeter has ifself no cura-
tive properties. If meat ef any kind is
immersed in a brine made With saltpeter
without salt, it will rot near1yor tate
as, quickly as if nothing ivere ap hod
to it, What the saltpeter des is to ard-
eu the surface. This prey nts the eat
from absorbing so much of the salt s it
would otherwise do. It also doub less
helps to keep the internal juice of the
meat from wasting itself in the b ine.
Salted meats have never scl much n tri-
tive value as they had befre bethi put
into brine. Some of thei -mine is ast-
ed in the brine. It seems probable that
saltpeter helps to prey at part of this

These symptoms point to defects in the refraction, or

The eyes of children should be carefully tested.
In many cases the defect in the eyes is shown by
various symptoms, such as Inability to see figures on
a blackboard, holding the book close to the eyes,
blurring of letters, crossed eyes or eyes turning in,
blinkiag, watering of the eyes and particularly head-
ache. In many eases the child Is accused of being

of disease, you will be recommended to the physician
