Do Good It Pays
A Chicago man has observed that Good
deeds are better than real estate deeds some of
the latter are -worthless Act kindly and gently
show sympathy and lend a helping hand You
cant possibly lose by it Most men appreciate
a kind word and encouragement better than
substantial help There are persons in this
community who might truthfully say My
good friend cheer up A few doses of Cham
berlains Cough Remedy will rid you of that
cold and there is no danger whatever from
pneumonia when you use that medicine It al

REMARKABLE LAKE
A Body of Water With a Roof of
SolidlUed Salt
A lake witi a salt roof Isnt frozen
Bait and it Isnt underground On the
i contrary this remarkable lake may be
seen at any time during the year fully
exposed being even at Its best when
the sun is shining directly upon it
This wonderful body of water is one of
the saltest of the salt lakes and is sit
uated near Obdorsk Siberia The lake
is nine miles wide and seventeen long
and within the memory of man was
not entirely roofed over by the salt de
posit Originally evaporation played
the most prominent part in coating the
lake over with salt but at the present
time the salt springs which surround
it are adding fast to the thickness of
the crust
In the long ago rapid evaporation of
the lakes waters left great salt crys
tals tloating on the surface In course
of time these caked together Thus the
waters were finally entirely covered
In 1878 the lake found an underground
outlet Into the river Obi which low
ered its surface about three feet The
ealt crust was so thick however that
it retained its old level and now pre
sents the curious spectacle of a salt
roofed lake The salt coat Increases
six inches in thickness every year The
many islands with wuicu tue laue is
studded are said to act as braces and
to help keep the arched salt crust in
position

Modifying It
Mrs C was horrified to discover that
her little seven-year-old daughter was
acquiring the habit of alluding very
freely to the devil and at last she told
her determinedly that a repetition of
the obnoxious word would bring severe
punishment
The child knew that her mother was
in earnest so she set a seal on her lips
At last she seemed to have forgotten
it but one Sunday Mrs C who had
been too ill to go to church asked her
if she could tell what the minister had
preached about in his sermon
Oh yesm she answered He
preached about our Lord going up into
the mountain and being tempted by
by by the gentleman who keeps hell
She didnt intend to run any risks of
being punished Francis E Wadleigh

They Never Imbibe
The Ona Indian is deserving of a
higher place than he has hitherto oc
cupied in mens esteem if but for one
trait He forms the almost solitary
exception among aboriginal tribes in
refusing to touch alcohol in any form
This policy of total abstinence is rigid
ly adhered to in the face of cold hun
ger and illness and even during the
excitement of ceremonial rites What
ever his faults may be judged from
the white mans standard the Ona of
South America has at least the saving
virtue of manliness His ideal is one
of bodily prowess hardihood and en
durance Scottish American
Their Fate
The late Dr Talraage once called on

rishioners there on legal business of a
private nature
Ah doctor called the lawyer in
greeting good morning Here are two

pertinence if you regard them as black
sheep or white
I dont know as yet replied Tal
mage dryly whether theyre black or
white but Im certain that if they re
main here long theyll be fleeced
