when Joshua, the leader of the

ON THE WINGS OF THE WIND
Nothing So Small That the Zephyrs
Shall Not Find It and Spread
' It Beneficially.
Acres of perfume come on the wind
from the black and white of the beanfield
; the firs till the air by the copse
with perfume. I know nothing to
which the wind has not some happy
use. Is there a grain of dust so small
the wind shall not find it out?
Ground in the mill-wheel of the centuries.
the iron of the distant mountain
floats like gossamer, and is drunk
up as dew. * * * A thousand miles of
cloud go by from morn till night,
passing overhead without n sound;
the immense packs, a mile square, succeed
to each other, side by side, laid
parallel, hook shape, coming up from
the horizon and wldonimr as thev mo
proach. From morn till night the
silent footfaMs of the ponderous vapors
travel overhead, no sound, no
creaking of the wheels and rattling of
the chains; It Is calm at the earth.
>ut the wind labors without an efTort
4bove, with such ease, with such
power. Gray smoke hangs on the hillside
where the couch-heaps are piled,
a cumulus of smoke; the wind comes,
and It draws Its length along like the
genii from the earthen pot; there
leaps up a red flame shaking its head;
It shines in the bright sunlight; you
can see It across the valley.?Richard
JefTtrles.
Magnet Has Many Use*.
A highly Important use of a magnet
Is that in which It Is sometimes employed
to withdraw small pieces of
iron from such out of the way places
as the human eye. Another nse of the
tractive force of magnetism on a much
larger scale was that to which it was
put hy Ellison in his magnetic ore
separator. In which the ore, previously
crushed to a fine powder, is dropped
down a chute past the poles of powerful
electro-magnets, in passing which
the iron particles of the ore are deflected
to one side, while the nonmagnetic
stone dust continues undefleeted
down the chute. Still another
Instance of the employment of magnetism
in a small way is that in which
a magnetized tack hammer is used in
the manufacture of strawberry baskets
on a large scale In conjunction with a
mechanical device which presents the
tacks, one at a time and head up. to
the operative, thereby greatly facilitating
his work.

Aluminurti Brass.
Experiments aimed at developing
the resistance of brass to the actioo
of sen water, with a view to Its em
y ployment for constructing submarines
In France, have, it Is reported, shown
some remarkable results from the addition
of aluminum. The Internal
structure of the alloy is strikingly
changed by a very small percentage
of aluminum and the color changes
are surprising.
From half of 1 per cent up to 5 per
cent of aluminum gives the brass a
deep golden color. If ths quantity of
aluminum Is Increased beyond 5 per
cent a superb rose color results, which
reaches Its maximum when the aluminum
rr.oonts to T per cent. With 10
per cent of aluminum the eolor turns

Did You?
Did von ever notice your wife's new
dress?
Did you ever give her a warm caress?
Did you ever linger a little while
To have her kiss you, and see her
smile?
Did you ever praise little things she
does?
Did you ever come home from the
daily buzz.
To take her hand u^d to pinch her
cheek,
And tell her the lov.e that she seeks
and seeks?
Dil you ever care when she changed
the way
She'd been wearing her hair for many
a day?
Did you ever notice the pains she
took
To fix herself so she'd always look
Pleasing and sweet to you when you
came?
Did you ever whisper her gentle
name
In sweetness inst no vnn uao<l ? > a--.
In the years way back when your
love was new?
Did you ever tell her she looked so
fine?
Did you ever whisper, "I'm glad
you're mine!"
Did you ever try to follow her whim
And fathom her fancy, and through
the dim
Drift and dream of the rolling years
Sweeten her sorrow and heal her
tears,
And pet and comfort her heart each
day?
Did you ever think of your wife that
way?

STARTS HIM ON NEW TACK
Mr. Billtopa Reconsiders Subject After
Gentle Reminder From His Very
mucn ocuer nan.
Till midnight the young ma?
stays sometimes," said Mr. Billtops,
"and as I sit with Mrs. Billtops waiting
I wonder If he will ever go. Ten
or half past Is as late as I think he
ought to stay, and 1 have devised many
plans to start him about that hour;
but to everything I suggest Mrs. Billtops
smilingly says no, and so I sit
and fret and fume and get more and
more nervous.
" 'Is this a new custom?' I say to Mrs.
B.. something that has come In wltt
the many new-fangled ways of the
present day?'
"'Is It a new custom?' says the smiling
Mrs. Billtops. 'Why. It Is a custom
as old as time. Don't you remember
how late you used to stay when
you came calling on me?'
"And really it was quite a shock to
me, that reminder; for I will admit
that I was myself a frightfully late
stayer.
"But did her father ever come In
wun a large club at about 10:K0 and
say to me that he thought now was
about time for me to go? Never! In
fact, he was always very kind to me.
as I now gratefully remember; but
now here was I getting all wrought
o * jse a young man stayed late In
my house.
"Grown older. I had come to have
fixed and settled hahlts, and I like to
see the whole household ordered In
like manner and keeping regular and
early hours. But I was reminded now
that youth looks at things from a different
point of view; youth takes little
note of time; to youth clocks are
of no Interest
"So, thinking back, and as I see here
the smiling face of the blessed Mrs.
Bllltops, I wait with a somewhat better
grace for the yonng man to go."

On to BattJe.
In a small town upstate there was
not one person who knew how to play
the organ at the church. At last a
girl who could play just a few and
very few hymns at that came to the
town.
One day the preacher aaked the organist:
"Can yon play a wedding
march for a wedding tomorrow?"
The organist replied: "1 am very
sorry, but I do not know one note of
a wedding march."
The preacher knew that they meat
have some kind of music for the wedding,
so he said: "Play the nearest
thing to a wedding march that yew
know."
As the bride and bridegroom caioe
down the aisle, "Onward Christian
Soldiers" was the tune that rolled forth
from the organ.?Indianapolis News.

tures in the recent past.
Public pourings are a thing of the
past at the county jail, partly because
of the fact that "pouring" attracts
a great many people and heartache
and anguish is caused by a sight
such as whiskey flowing in the gutter
usually makes. The whiskey may
be poured in many ways, and the
sheriff has decided that about the ;
best means of disposing of the liquor
is to pour it into the sewerage system
of the city, from which it can
hardly be reclaimed.
The pouring this morning was a J
very quiet affair, witnessed bv one!
lorn- newspaperman, and the sheriffand
a deputy who did tho pouring I
The liquor was poured inainh from!
ten gallon kegs into the bath tub and
then drained out.
A bath tub full of liquor might
sound like a glimpse of a "sot s para
dise," but howevr strong a constitu-j
tion the "sot" might ha\?\ he would;
not have lasted long m the bath
