now Nature Makes Silver.
The process by which naturo forms
her silver mines is very intereatiug. It
must bo remembered that the earth's
ciust is full of water, which percolates
everywhere through the rocks, making
solutions of eleiueuls obtained from
them. These solutions take up small
particles of precious metal which they
find hero and there.
Sometimes the solutions in quostion
are hot, the water having got so far
down as to be sofc boiling by the inter
nal heat of tho globe. Then they rush
upward, picking up tho bits of metal as
they go. Naturally heat assists the per
formance of this operation.
Now and then the streams thus form
ed, perpetually flowing hither and thith
er below tho ground, pass through
cracks or cavities in tho recks, where
they deposit their lodes of silver. This
is kept up for a great length of time
perhaps thousands of yeara until the
pocket is filled up.
Crannies permeating the stony mass
in every direction may becomo filled
with the precious metal, or occasionally
a chamber may be stored fall of it as if
1,000,000 bauds were fetching the treas
ures from all sides and hiding away a
mine for somo lucky prospector to dis
cover in anoihor age. London Stand

"I paid a dollar and a half for this
