He turned away from the midnight still, and followed that shim- mering light, straight to the little grave. yard in the woods, and fell across the little new mound there, and sobbed like e. child that has rebelled and yielded. A soft pre. settee breathed among the shadows ; a pre- sence that crept to bit bosom when he open- ed. his arms, his face still pressed against the 6oit, new soil. A strange, sweet peace cense to him, suck as he had never felt be- fore, filling him with restful, chastened and exquisite sadness. The storm passed by after a while, and the rain fell softly —as the dew faits en dowers.

Sometimes they talked of the blessed dead— the dear, dear dead who are permitted to return to give help to their loved ones. Aye, ha believes it, be knows it, for the old temptation assails him no mire forever. That is enough to know. And in the heart of the wands in thedewy twilight, or at the solemn midnight, she comes to meet him, unseen but telt, and walks with him again along the way from Dan to Beersheba. He holds communion wit n her there, and is eatisded and strength- ened. Goti knows, God knows if it he true, she meets him there. But life is no longer agony and struggle with him. And often when lie starts. upon his lonely walks, he hears the wind pnsseng through the ragged cedar:: with a low, tremulous soughini and bends ears to listen. " In the heart of the woods, 0 Love, 0 Love." And he understands at last how to those passed on is rouehsafed ne power denied the human helper, and that she who would have been bis guide and comforter now gave hien a better guardianship --a watchful and a holy spirit. -.-i Will Allen I)roingoeloin� the Ammo MOQSL' AC+. 11 T ENGINE.

She was waiting here with hundreds of others until the cruel war should cease.' One day when there had been a great battle, a messenger came to Beersheba bringing news for her. He brought a letter, and she came across the little court there at great Beersheba, and received it front the messenger's hand. She tore it open and read the one line writ- ten there. Then the white page fluttered to the ground. She placed her hands upon her heart as if the bullet had pierced her. ' Oh, Shiloh 1' Shiloh ! That was all she said or did. The ball from old Shiloh did its work. The next day they buried her up there under the cedars.

I had plenty of time and robe all the way from home on my horse, to which fact i to -day owe my life. The horse is one that I raised myself, and he is a regal: r pet, coming at my call. When II got to the place where the reads forked I saw that the river road leading up the steep hill was the one svhiela seethed to be travelled. I did not like to go over the hill unless I had to, so I got down off my Horse and turned him loose to fellow inc as I walked along. Ilestippcd to graze and I walked slowly, watching the river.

A greet deal of the bad milk sent to market is due to natural causes, for which the farmer is not always responsible, but the recent investigations and experiments with bacteria in milk are such as make it plain for most dairymen to avoid a great deal of the unhealthful milk. Every one who hand. les milk for market should have at least an intelligent understanding of the nature of bacteria, or microbes, as they are called. They exist in air, water, soil, and vegetable 111e. Cold destroys them ; heat develops them and as a result they are found in milk in a dangerous condition during hot weather. A high temperature of heat will kill them, but it takes a greater amount to kill their spores, which in time become as active as the microbes. Milk contains several species of bacteria, and they have different actions upon the milk and cream. It is due to their development that the cream is " ripened" and that milk sours and curdles. Bacteria require time for their development, and hence cream or milk that has stood for some time abounds the most in these microbes. They collect in the cracks and crevices of cans where the cream or grease has been allowed to stand, and they multiply so rapidly that they soon become dangerous. Milk poured into such cans willbecome con- taminated, and will communicate the poison to other cans into which it may subsequently be poured. In this way poisoned milk spreads rapidly, and causes no end of mis- chief. Dirt and uncleanliness are especially favorable to the growth of bacteria, and cans that are not properly cleaned, as the milk is poured out of diem, -will become great breed- ing places for the germs. Milk cans that are returned from the city on hot days will invariably aboundin microbes, for they are seldom cleaned out before they are reshipped. After they are. received they must be thoroughly cleansed and purified before other milk is poured into them. The dairy- man gets all the blame for impure milk, and hence he should exercise great carefulness. Ho has everything to lose. As for him, her murderer they said, " the accident quite drove him mad." Perhaps it did ; he thought so, often ; only that he never called it by the name of accident. "It was God's plan for helping me," he told himself (luring those slow hours of tor- ture that followed. There were days and weeks when the mention of theplacewould tear his very soul. Then the old craving re- turned. Drink ; he could forget, drown it all if only he could return to the old way of forgetting. But something hold him back. What was it? God? No, no. God did not care for such as he, he told himself. He was alone ; alone forever now. One night there was a storm, the cedars were lashed and hroken, and the windows rattled and shook with the fury of the wind. The rain beat against the roof in torrents. The night was wild, as he was. Oh, he too, could tear, and howl, and shriek. Tear up the very earth, he thought, if only he let his demon loose. - He arose and threw on his clothes. He wanted whiskey ; he was tired of the strug- gle, trutsgle, the madness, the despair. A mile be- yond there was a still, an illicit concern, worked only at night. He meant to find it. His brain was giving way, indeed. Had already given way,h e thought,ht, as he lis- tened to the wind calling -him, the storm luring him on to destruction. The very lightning beckoned- him to " come and bo healed." Healed ? Aye, he knew what it was that healed the agonies of mind which physics could not reach. He knew, he Irnew. Heliad been a fool to think he would forego this healing. He laughed as he tore open the door and stepped out: into the night. The cool rain strut:11 =-..n hisburning brow as he plunged foroveru into the arms of the darkness, He A Marvellous Clock. Power of Endless and Persian Fakirs 10 simulate Dench. The fakirs or faqueers of India and Per- sia, who have the power of simulating death, regard the art as a part of their re- ligious ritual and practice it assiduously. In their ancient books it is described as Duranayam, or stopping the breath. Many cases in which these Indian fakirs have allowed. themselves to beo:mried alive for long periods hatebeen verified by British officials in India and attested by evidence which dispels all doubt of their truth. This impersonation of death continues for as long as six and even ten months. The way the fakirs go to work to produce this condition is to have the little ligature under tho tongue cut, whereby they are enabled to stretch this organ out to a great length. Then they turn it back, inserting the end in the throat, and closing up at the same time the inner dasal apertures. The exter- nal apertures of the nose and ears are closed with wax and the eyes covered to exclude the light. Long preliminary practice is, however, needed in holding the breath, and a long course of fasting before burial. The fakir than sinks into acondition resembling death, and the body is wrapped in linen, placed in a box and buried. When the box is taken up, at the expira- tion of the long -continued, death -tike sleep, and opened, the fakir is found cold and stiff ; no pulsation can be felt ; the heart, the wrist, the temples are still; the body is not cold as a corpse would be, but is colder than that of other living men, except over the seat cf the brain. All the secretions are fully stopped; the nails, hair and beard have ceased growth. After being resuscitated the fakir feels great dizziness, and for a few hours eau not stand up without support, but gradually he re- covers strength and enjoys amazingly the wonder he has exacted. A genius at Muhienberg, Pennsylvania, has completed a marvellous clock for exhibi- tion at the World's s ' am Chicago. Around the dial is a railway track, on which a min- iature locomotive makes a round every five minutes. It requires a magnifying glass to see the delicate machinery. The oil cups at the journals are so small that nothing larger than a hair can be inserted. There is a headlight and bell, flag -holders on the pilot, whistle, andevorything connected with a locomotive, It bas a link notion under the engine to reverse it.

There's a mist on the mountains, The fax away mountains, And dim are the peaks of that verdure -clad elope; The spray of the fountains— The joy brimming-fountains— Is hushed now and still on the mountains of Iiopo. There's a cloud o'er the valley— Tho deep, sheltered valley— Whose soft, soothing whispers I neer thought could cease; But now, melancholy, Tho storm demons rally, And hidden from view is the valley of Peace There's a bark on the river— Tho dark, sullen river— The flood of the whirlpool, and storm -withered loaf ; Tho mariners quiver— With agony quiver— Afloat on the breast of the river of Oriel, There's a new star in heaven A bright light in Heaven -- A loved form released from the blows of the rod' : And new life is given -- To her up in heaven -- And joy reignssupreino in the kingdom of God [Richard Henry Buck, 1:041110=10024,1 This is fate way with the B. & C. corset: if you want ease and shapeliness,' you buy it—but you don't • keep it unless you like it.
