HOUSEHOLD FIRES.

THE hearth is piled-the fire is bright
The chamberglows with genial light
The spectral shadows rise and fall.
And beckon from the pictured wall,
As here | thoughtfully sit and gaze
Upon the still-aspiring blaze,
While busy fancy throngs my breast
With thoughts of my PrOmetheun guest.
Dear Household Fires how glad the glow
Ye DER the homestead kitchen throw,
When gathered household girt once more
The wide-armed fireplace where ye roar
The curtained bed, the tables queer,
The ruddy fireplace corner dear,
Where the coiled cat lies snug and warm;
The quaint old chairs Of clumsy form,
The rifle DER the mantle swung,
The cricket singing as he sung
When first the fire sang DER his head,
The stand and bible BY the bed
Grand,sire, with baby on his knee,
(The good old man, with silver hSirD
While Grandma knitting busily,
Sways near him, in her creaking ch air.
All, all come back, those dear old scenes
Uudimmed, whatever intervenes.
Yet, Household Fire to you they owe
A deeper joy, purer glow
Your radiance grouped the cheerful throng
Smiled when they smiled, sang with theii
song;
And when the hours Of Sorrow came,
What sympathy was in thy flame
He who went forth in Fortunes track,
But came at last, heart broken, back;
She whose meteorological breast
Is like asong. birds ruined nest,
Its melody and gladuess gone
He VIII ose cold life drags needless on;
While his crushed heart is lingering
Within that newest grave of Spring;
All, all in chastened sorrow turn
To where thy kindly greetings burn,
While kindles in each sober eye
The holy light of days G one by.

source of Eaf

During the course of the past year, ex-
periments have been made IN France on
a number of ducks to prove that the Fat
may exceed the quantity which could be
referred to the food they were supplied
with. Some were fed on rice, u SUBJ
stance which contains only few parts of
fat in thousand. Others fed on rice
with certain amount of butter added.
At the end of the experiment, the first
were as lean as when first placed upon
the diet; the latter, in few days, be-
came positively balls of fat. Otherexpe-
riments were made on pigs. twas found,
as the result Of several trials, that there
was sometimes more fat produced than
was contained in the food on which they
were fed. Food which, given alone, has
not the properties Of fattening, when
mixed with fatty matter acquires the
property to an astonishing degree and
fattening articles of food, which do not
contain much fat, always aboHnd with
its chemical constituents, the principal
Of which is azote, and from whence the
fat acquired is certainly derived. Scien-
tifc american.
