A lodi' is a streak, as sure as you’re

A dip is a pitch of the »aiue,

Or roof, of leads in place.
The Coot,-wall's just the floor of them,

Aw incline shaft, is one that’s sunk
Down on the lead’s own pitch.
A straight one justdon’t seem to care,
’Bout strikin’ore that’s rich.

From a point t hat’s picked as best.

A drift isa tunnel tbatfollows aiead,
Not down, but in on a level.
A st upe's a bole where ore was mined :
Now doit’t that, bent the devil?
A winze isa sort, of a shaft, you see,
That starts from a level below,
And when they picked that name
for it,
Is more, my friend, than I know.
A raise is made Uneonnoct two levels,
Or itw strike the shoot'overhead ;
And the face of a drift is the end of

And so we’ll say, enough said.

Mr. Ingram’s Reply to Jona

Ed. Nugget:
Mr. Ingram thinks the next time
ithat Rev. Jouathun Gilreath pre
tends to preach at Vahoola church
ho had better get his text some
where in the Bible or New 'I\’stns
pient and not take his lexl on him
and 1 lie ‘good members of the
church. I don't think Gilreath
has ever read any in 1110 New Tes
tament or he could havo found out
how (lie Lord’s supper was insli-
tilled. The youngsters had a
candy eating at the new school
house at Mt. Lebanon the othe.i’
night and Jonathan Gilreath called
it the Lord’s supper.
I don’t wonder at him preaching
so many things that are not so, and
using so much harsh and abrupt
language about the good brethren
and sisters.
I am snro I would have had
much more Christian love for the
preacher if he had not told such a
bare-faced lie on me, by saying 1

A Story With ;t Moral.
A boy sat on a rail fence enclos-
iga corn field. A city chap
assing by remarked :
“Your coru looks kind-a yeller,
lid.”
“Yes, sir; that’s the kind pi mt-
d,” answered I lie lad.
“It don’t look like you'd
sore than half a crop,” saul
ity chap.
“Nope, we don’t expect to;
andlord gets the other half.”
The stranger hesitated a mo
ment and then ventured:
“There isn’t very much differ
ence between you and a fool, boy.”
“Nope, only a strip of weeds,”
mid the farmer boy, and tin; oily
ihap drove on.
Moral—Attend to your own af-
airs, and let other people do the
iaine.—Exchange.
The Weakest Link
As a chain is no stronger than
its weakest link, just so the great-
eg t load which can be hauled over
a roadisthe load which can be
hauled up the steepest bill on that
read. The cost of haulage is,
therefore, necessarily increased in
proportion to tho grade, as it costs
°ne and one- half times as much
h> haul over a road liaviDg a five
Percent, grade, and three times as
much over one having a ten per
cent, grade as on a level road. As
a perfectly level road can seldom
be had, it is well to know the
steepest allowable grade. If the
hill be one of great length, it is
best to have the lowest part steep

pable of exerting his full strength,
and to make the slope more gentle
toward the summit to correspond
with the continually decreasing
strength of the fatigued animal.
Rousseau says: “A man should
never blush in confessing his er
rors, for be proves by his avowal
that he is wiser today than he was
yesterday.” Mistakes are a part
of mature education, just as the
green apple is an experience to the
small liny. T. Roosevelt has said
that, those who never make mis-
1 likes are thofe who have never
done anything. There is no folly
greater than that of clinging ever
lastingly to the opinion that one
always does right. The man or
woman who looks into his or her
heart, secs the mistakes there and
endeavors to do differently is the
one who is learning and who, some
day, will understand a little bit
of this wonderfully interesting
study which we call life. I he
thing for you to do is to tell your
friend-fraukly that you have mis
judged, and that you are soriy,
A simple matter surely. The
woman who throws a good friend
aside is more foolish than the one
who spends her money for things
she does not want or who throws

‘the fatal gift of beauty’ has some
foundation in fact. ’—Philadel
