The stuff heroes are made of Is never more clearly Illustrated than In the case of men who , without the excitement . cltement of battle , calmly prepare to meet inevitable misfortune. When John E. Borden of Jobstown , N. J. , realized that blindness was to be his fate he was a young man clerking in a grocery store. A wealthy sister offered . fere ] aid that his burden might bo lightened ; , but he would have none of it. Deciding that In no other place could he find so much freedom and consequent enjoyment as amid stir roundlngs with which he was already familiar , he began impressing them on his mind as his sight continued _ to fall , Developing the senses of touch an hearing to a rmnarlmblo degree he continued to care for the horses , and open and close the store. Likewise , he continued to drive about the country . try soliciting orders , and never forgot how to put up orders as accurately as a person possessing full sight. lie quotes prices on all kinds of machines . chines , explains their mechanism , and conducts patrons through the ware- house as though he were laboring tinder - der no disadvantages , and because oC his determination not to give tip to his affliction gets much more out of life than many of his more fortunate but less brave brethren.

The Goldenes 1\.l'euz ( Golden Cross ) at Regensb\IJ'g ( Ratlsbon ) , In Bavaria Is the oldest hotel In Ellrope. .Iing Ferdinand 1. halted at It on his way to his coronation In 1531 , and no other hotel In Europe possesses records of such great antlqlllt as the Golden Cross at Ratlsbon does or can boast of having had so many royal visitors as have enjoyetl Its hospitalll The existing vlsltol's' books , which date from 1819 , contain the names of more than 500 Imperial , royal and princely personages. The room Is shown where , In 1865 , the late Prince Bismarck that time Prussian minister . Ister , slept when he came with his sovereign to hold the conference which wan the last attempl to prevent war between Austria and Prussia. The negotiations were held In the "small hall" of the hotel , under the presidency . cy of King William of Prussia. The host Is equally proud oC the autographs - tographs at Schiller and oilier men of f letters which ho possesses : The au , thor of "William 'I' ell " wrote the words , "Und clime Helmath hit es" ( "It is Indeed a home" ) , In memory of his _ Lu H. _ _ _ _ _ _ , _ . _ lu.l1,1 _ _ . .1. , u.I. . . . stay there : and IlU landlon ' d could wish for a better advertisement. Dog Saves Life of Child. Dumb brute faithfulness was demon- strated when a bulldog owned by Wil- lIam Corwin saved the life of the man's two-year-old son \VllIle. The little fellow was playing In the street In the vicinity of his home In Berkeley , Colo. A car came Howling - along Just as the little fellow started to cross the thoroughfare. He stumbled and fell , and to onlookers . lookers it seemed that he could not possIbly avoId being run over. Then tao dog shot out from the sidewalk tile , u flash , grulHlcll the trousers of the little fellow In his teeth , and drag. god him to safety as the motornman was using nIl his efforts to check the Sileed of his car. The little fellow's trousers were lit. ernlly torn from his body by the teeth of the dog , but the faIthful canine suc ceeded In dragging Its infantile master . tCI' to safety before the garment gave 4'1ty. 1'he near approach to death of the baby was witnessed by Policeman KeJ'sten and several others , but it all happened ] so quickly that no one bet the dog was able to do a thing toward saving the life ur the little fellow. Mr. Corwin Is It miner and has lived In Berkeley several 'enrR. yearn. - - - Dog Nurses Polar Bear Cuba. Time two polar hear cubs which were horn al the Buffalo "zoo" a short time ago are alive and thriving. Curator Crandall has obtained a foster.mother for them In a female Irish setter. The dog nurses time cubs , and her mill appears to agree with them. The dog , however , does not yet mother the little ones. That Is , while she POl' mils them to nurse she docs not cuddle . die them and protect them with her body from the cold. It is , therefore , necessary to keep them in a large box , cotton lined and tilled with hot water bags. For this reason it Is necessary to keep a constant' watch UPOI1 them to see that they do not be- come ill or die from exposur "I am in hopes ! that the dog will soon maUleI' them , " said 1\11' Crandall. " \Vhen she does , It will not be' neces- nary to watch tl } m constantly , as the warmth or the dog's body will be all the protection they need from the woather. " I The mother bear awe birth to three . . . . , , . . . . . g " u. . . . . . . . . . cubs , but before they could be taken from her she ute one of her offspring. This Is the trouble that curators or aU zoos have In raising young bears. - - - - . California Salt Farm. One of the strangest of farms in the country , if not 111 the whole world , If situated in southern California , 205 feet below the level of the sea. ThE' ' Place Is known as Sallon. It Is a salt farm of about 1,000 acres. Here the salt lies , as deposited by nature from six inches to sixteen inches In depth. The salt farmers are busy harvesting this crop the year round : and , though the harvest has continued for twenty years , during which time , more than 40,000 tons of salt has been harvesto. only ten of the 1,000 acres of the farm have been touched. The salt Is first plowed ] up Into furrows . rows : It Is then thrown into conical plies by men with barrows , after which It Is taken to the reductios works , near br , and put Into marketable . able condition. The work Is done by Mexicans and Chinamen , time intense heat being more than the while man can endure. World's Greatest Hen Farm.
