John Wanamaker was once asked to Invest In an .expedition to recover doubloons from the Spanish ipflfo ' which for half a century had lain at the bottom of the sea In sunken frig ates. "Young men," he replied, "I know of a better expedition than this right here. Near your own feet lie treas ures untold. You can have them all by faithful study. "Let us not be content to mine the most coal, to make the largest locomo tives, 'to weave the largest quantities of carpets, but amid the sounds of the pick, the blows of the hammer, the rat tle of the looms and the roar of the machinery take care that the immortal mechanism of God's own hand the mind Is still full trained Tor the high est and noblest service.' The Ignorant man is always placed at a great disadvantage. No matter how much natural ability one- may have, if be is ignorant be Is discount ed. It Is not enough to possess ability; It must be made available by' mental discipline. "We ought to be ashamed to remain in ignorance In a land where the blind, the deaf and dumb, where even cripples and invalids, manage to get. a good, education. The trouble Is that many youths throw away little opportunities for self culture because they cannot see great ones, and they let the years slip by without any spe cial effort at self Improvement until they are shocked In middle life or biter by waking up to the fact that they are still ignorant of what they ought to know. . It is not absolutely necessary that an education should be crowded into a few years' of school life. The best educated people are .those who are always learning, always absorbing knowledge from every possible source amUati every -opportunity.

Even the mature' mind .sel dom loses its delight in such stories. Mr. Whltmarsh in "The World's Hough Hand" describes his owu experiences as a fortune hunter. At the time of which he writes be was n young fel low and with his older and more experienced partner, Sam, was in Aus tralia seeking for gold. We had just finished our midday BreaL. Early in the morning I had crossed an old track leading to some deserted workings near by and on it had picked up a piece of honeycombed mineral which I could not place. I thought of it now and tossed it ovento Sam; saying: "Here's a curious hit -of stuff I found. It looks volcanic." Sam laughed. "I: don't wonder it-puzzled you, son ny," he said. "It's a bit of coke, drojH ped.from a wagon probably." He threw, it. back at me, and I care- , lessly began to pound it between -two bits of rock, Suddenly one of the atones split. ' The fracture was holtow, containing grapelike clusters of dark green. . 7, "Well, here's "something new, any way,'' I said. Sam's face changed as be -looked at the, stone. ,He tried the green sub stance with, bis knife. It cut like ' wax. "Chloride silver!" be' cried. "Where SM you findit?' I snowed him the exact spot, -and he wildly scrambled round on his hands and knees.- is'o.stone like it was to be found. "It doesn't 'belong here," asserted Sam. "Being round, it -rolled down the hUl, and it may have rolled a long way." - .It couldn't have come far," said. I, pointing, to. a thick scrub growth. "That's nothing. The scrub Is per haps fifty years old, while the stone may have been 'working' down for 60.000 years. We'll look up the hill." We took 'a direct line toward the summit of the range. Near a small bill with a "black, uneven crest we found some more of tbeaiecxnlar round stoaes. Tonders oar pile, laoV'amhl Sam The crest of toe small hill proved to A -.J Vr' -jV-.. -,.

I stretched myself out at full length, pulled my hat over my eyes and built air castles. -In less than four hours Sam returned. lie had walked ten miles, taken ont a miner's right and procured some tool. Our claim was safe. The Fly Cantlaa- Prrleane. Wliiie our knowledge' of these things does not exact from us an independent protest against constantly repeated praise of the qualities of trout .and of fly casting as a means of taking them, it perhaps adds to the spirit and em phasis of our dissent when we are told that fly casting for trout Is the only style of fishing worthy of cultivation and that no other method ought to be undertaken by a true fisherman. This is one of the deplorable fishing affecta tions and pretenses which the sensible rank and file of the fraternity ought openly to expose and repudiate. Our irritation is greatly increased when we recall the fact that every one of these superrcfined fly .casting dictators when he fails to allure trout by his most scientific casts will chase grasshopiters to the point of profuse perspiration and turn over logs and stones with fever ish anxiety in quest of worms and grubs, if haply he can with these save himself from empty handedness. Nei ther his fine theories nor his exclusive faith in fly casting so develops his self denying heroism that he will turn his back upon fat and lazy trout that will not rise.

When Prince Bismarck was eighty years old he received an immense num ber of congratulatory birthday mes sages by wire and post. The staff of the tiny postoflice at Friedrichsruh was raised to thirty officials for the birthday week, while the telegraphers bad at their disposal five direct wires to Hamburg and four to Berlin. From March 25 to April 1 the number of tel egrams received gradually rose from 102 to 4,122, with 128,2 words. Dur ing the whole period close upon 12,000 telegrams, aggregating nearly half a million words, were received and for warded. In the same period there ar rived 979 ordinary parcels, 225 regis tered parcels, 995 registered letters and about 450,000 ordinary letters and book post consignments. The only telegrams to which immediate answer was neces sary were those from royalties. The only other so honored was one from school children in England. A HeMt la HlMaelf. In Washington.
