THE SOUL'S FAREWELL TO THE
BODY.
Farwell, thou, to the elements return,
We sever all conversations from this
day,
Back to tits mother earth thou goest, tItY
time
Has come, no power can bid thee stay.
Thy reign was brief, yet in that space
what wonders
Thou didst aecomplisit. Voices will
Proclaim
And praise thy memory; what matters
it?
Their praises now are all in vain.
Thou hearest not their voices, though
they ehout
And weep and prey, they cannot waken
thee,.
The seal of fate is stamped upon thy
face,
And on thy brow death's victory.
'Twas 1 who gave thee power to live and
learn
To feel bright happiness and dark de-
spair.
My promptneas caused the frigidness of
hate'
The, way to do, the will to dare.
i filled thy bottom with the flame of love,
The fire of genius took Its root in me.
I guided thee, controlled thine every
move,
I breathed the breath of life In thee.
And yet we needs must part; a voice on
high
Bele us to Journey on, on different
ways --
Then to thy mast cold resting-nlace, the
grave,
1 with by God to live and praise.
Farewell, farewell! The.parting Is for
aye,
Thou owest a debt to Nature, like all
men—
The body must to eart hreturn-the steel
Goes up on high, and then -what then?

It Is a carious' fact that from the

Of the very many superstitions
touching salt, the most familiar is, of
course, that which holds it unlucky to
epill it. An origin has been alleged for
this hi Da Vinci's, "Last Supper,' where-
in, at the side of Judaea is represented
an overtarned Balt vessel. It seems, how-
ever, to be a fact that this superstition
dates farther back. There is evidence to
show that, when the Victims for Roman

upon their heads, it was regardea as
the very worst of omens should they

Zani-Buk is so Very Useful
Read How Beneficial It Proved
In this Case.
Mrs, Ir. Sawyer, of Keene, Out.,
writes: "My husband is engaged on a
farm, and one day, while chopping wood,
the toe of the axe broke and fell upon
his foot, cutting it nasty gash. The
wound was so bad that we first thonght
We would have to get a doctor, but we
finally deolded to dress the cut with
Zamauk,
"Weil, the • Zam-Buk treatment
proved a great success. It not only eased
the Oath, but it prevented any inflamma-
tion; and right from first applying
Zasn-Buk, the cut began to heal. It
is now completely healed; and my hos-,
band says he will never be without a
box of Zam-Buk in the house, for we
are sure it saved us a great deal of
expense."
Over and over again Zam-Buk has
been proved to be the worker's best
remedy. As soon as applied to it mit,
a burn, a scald or any skin injury,
it relieves the pain and it eets up
healing. It aleo prevents blood -poison-
ing or inflammation. It is it sure cure,
too, for eczema, piles, ulcers, oid wounds,
bad leg, ringworm, scald sores, fester-
ing, running sores, eruptions, cold sores,

also, makes it the ideal balm for babies.
Zam-Buk Soap should be used along
with the balm for washing all sore

FORESTRY IN SAXONY.
(Forestry Branch Press Bulletin No. 33.)
The aggregate area of the state forest
of Saxony is less than 450,000- acres.
The yield of the state forests in the year
1908 was 226 million feet board measure.
In this total are compressed 83 per cent.
of wood and timber fit for technical use,
and 17 per cent of firewood. The age of
final maturity, beyond which trees are
not allowed to remain is, for spruce, 80
years; for pine, 80 years, for all hard-
woods, 120 years. The diameter of the
trees, measured at four and a half feet
above the ground 'at these ages depends
entirety on the quality of the soil. It
varies for spruce between eight and ten
inehesg for pine. between six ana ten
inches. The entire gross expense for
forestry in 1908 was a million and a half
dollars; forty per cent, for salaries;
forty per cent. for logging and forest
experiments, and twenty per cent. for
planting and road building. The en -
the gross revenue from forestry in 1908
was three million, nine hundred thou-
sand dollars. The net revenue was, as
a consequence, two million, four hundred
thousand dollars, equal to five dollars
And thirty-two cents net per acre.
