THE PARADISE. OF PROGRESS.
TES WAIL OE TOE PORT OT TEE FOSTER.
In old Anne Dcatini
(Vaniehed bath the ancient style)
Men could look upon the sky,
If the earth were wholly vie.
Non- alas "the heavy change 1" -
All our star gazing ie done;
Terrible machines and obi ange,
Glide between us and the sun I
Land laws -once they left us when
Our democracy was new-
.
Gayly they oume back again,
Came the sea laws, air laws too 1
"Fined for trespassing on brine,"
Every day wo note it less,
"Killed while bathing on the line
Of a submarine expreos I"
In old. Anno Domini,
In the happy days grown dim,
Men could sail upon the fleas
At their pleasure -dive or awim.
On the sand the children played ;
Now thesand they tell us, falls ;
Thera's a tax on every spade,
Stringent rola concerning pails.I
In old An,noDqmini
Men were siroplb, merry, kind,
Never struggled for the Bea,
Never quarreled for the wind.
Earth has been a peaceful place
Free from folly, free from jars,
Were the simple, early race
That could look upon the stars I
BY THE LAME.
Standing alone by the lake, as the old year
was peacefully dying,
Soothed by the soft wind of evening, clown
'mid the willow trees sighing,
Soft on the wind waves was floated the
sound of the 'mnsical chime.
Thal down in the OM village tower rang
forth the ageing of Time.
Like the light ,from the hilt of a jewelled
sword was the dark sky's starry gleam,
Like a silver SOK shone the silent lalce in
thepale moon's icy beam,
And cairn -topped hill and grassy plain were
,clad in a mantle of snowy white
That gleamed like a young knight's silver
shield flashieg the soft moonlight.
But my thoughts were far, far away, es I
gazed on the skinamering lake,
Aud heard by the edge of the wave -washed
beach the reeds in thesoft wind shake,
And a throng of shadowy fancies passed
swift through my musing mind, '
AS I saw the dark lake shiver 'neath the
breath of the wintry wind.
"How many have (Adria by this lonley lalre
and marked the old year dio 2
Bow many have heard with list'ning ear
tho wind 'mong the willows sigh?
Here tilayhap has orouohed some Briton,
eager to lean nn the carolers foe,
Tracked to the side of the lonely lake by
the treacherous prints on the snow.
"The moon that shinee on this dark lake
may have shone on the glittering spear
Of some Roman youth, who on lonely guard
thought on &bright new year,
Spent far away in a summer clime 'math
the blue of Italian skies,
And sighed as he thought how oft he had
basked in the light of his lady's eyes.
"Some Christian knight whose maiden arm
had neverdashed on the blood -red field,
Whose heart was pure and free from stain
as the cross on his unblazoned shield,
May here have Wen from his lady% hind
the scarf that tiny hand hadavrought,
The scarf that would WOO on his oasque of
steel when in Palestine he fought.
"The wind that sigho among the willows
may have played with the raven's wing
That waved o'er the eap of some cavalier
who fought for the martyred king,
And the moon that shines on this lonely
lake, shedding a silvery fickal,
May have shone as fair on a bright blade
tined with the boot of Puritan blood."
A merry peal of clashing chimes came
ringing o'er the grassy plain,
And rouged ma from the reverie where, Ion.
bound by tbe golden chain
Thrown amnia nye by my fanoy, 1 had
seen the shadoWy past,
Filled With troops of king -like phantoms,
flitting by me thick and fast,
.And I left the lake behind mo, left tho
moonlight and the willowe,
And wandered nmoing homewards, past tho
river, through the meadows,
Somewhat sad, 'howevo lofty, wore the
thoughts within my mind,
And ere I reached the village I was sighing
With the wind. ,
Pox I felt at tho root of MY dreaming lay
Ibis hitter germ of truth,
That while X gazed on Natuee'e beauty and
and on every happy youth,
All too soon the young grow aged, all too
soon the aged die,
And the thought of Death all.tnaetering
geed from toy lips the pont-up sieh.

The anti-orinoline faction

Buttons are of all sizes, some aro

others ate scarcely larger,than shot.
Tho Queen's order that no one is
to wear dross trimmed with birde
at Court is heartily commended. It
is high time that barbarism received
a Cheek.

About 800 employes of.the Massey
Manufacturing Co., Toronto, went
out on strike on Monday morning.
The trouble, it is said, is about the
payment of wages. The men have
hitherto been paid monthly, • and a

Saturday asking that the wages be
paid weekly, This was refused, and
the committee got their walking tick -
eta.. Hence the strike.

Poundmaker and Big Boar, with the
other Indians, will be released just
now, pending the result of the present
Indian scare out west.
A:strange phenomenon appeared in
the sky at the north-vsestern part of
1Viontreal from 11:80 to 1:80 last week.
It appeared like a fiery sword etrach-

As the sky cleared it died away. Prof.

Semi Points in littlic.SettIng,
Prof. Arnold contributes the follow,
ing to the Naw York Tribune :
1, To make the finest flavored and
longest keeping butter the • cream
mutt undergo a ripening prooese by
exposure to the oxygen of the air
while it is rising. The riponin is
very tardy when the temperature ia
low.
2, After cream Weenies sour, the
more ripening the more it depreci-
ate. The sooner itie then skimmed
and ()burned the better, but it abould
not be churned while too new. Tho
best time for skimming and churn-
ing, 18 just before noidity becomes
apparent,
8 Cream makes better butter to
rise in cold air to rise in oold water,
but it will rise sooner in cold water,
and the milk will keep sweet longer.
4. The deeper milk is set the less
airing oreani gets while
6. The depth of setting should vary
with the temperature ; the lower it is
the deeper milk may be set ; the
higher, the shallower it should be,
Milk should never bo eat shallow 10 a
low temperature nor deep in a high
one. Setting deep in oold water ec-
onomizes time, labor and space.
8. When milk is standing to crea01.
the purity of the oream, and conse-
quently the fine flavor and keeping
of the butter, will be injured if the
surface of the oream ie exposed freely
to air much warmer than the cream.
7. When oreem is colder than the
surrounding air, it takes up moisture
and' impurities from the air. When
the air is colder than the cream, 11
takes up moisture and whatever es-
capes from the cream. In the form-
er cue the cream purifies the sur-
rounding air, in the latter case, the
tur helps to purify the cream. The
selection of a creamer should hinge
on what is the most desired-higheat
quality or greatest convenience and
economy in time, space and labor.
