Worth Fifteen Hundred Dollars.

" A thoughtful wife-she saved him fifteen
hundred dollars-such O wife is priceless
treasure"
Thus discourses one of the public educa-
tors Of the age-a newspaper.
Is it when thought is translated into gold.
when it takes the form of round dollars, that
it is priceless, Mr. journal Such is the
wife you appreciate Such qualities in wife
are the priceless ones No; yourself
has fixed their value-$l, 800.
Now consder-if you can--your wife's
unceasing thought for you-an unnoted con-
sciousness, which, all day long, during your
weary absence, dwels, like the breath Of life,
in her heart, modifying all her feelings and
prompting every act OF her daily lfe-what
is that worth ? $500 think of it. See
the smiles irradating her lips as she thinks,
while preparing the wholesome food, "This
is just as Jenny likes it p See the table
furniture arranged so as to harmonic with
your idealty. the freside frightened as you
like to have it, her dress adjusted according
to your expressed liking See the children
trained, by thought, word and deed, to honor
you. She teaches them, with eye of love and
heart glowing with joy, the words of affection,
the sentences of endearment with which your
arrival is greeted fixing in their minds
precions associations of papa with all that is
good, noble, loving and lovely Is nothing
" thoughtful" nothing priceless" in all
this Is this worth less than 81 500? Yet,
you never speak of this-never acknowledge
it Is it, like the vulgar air, so common as
to be valueless
Man you are not the mercenary being
\
but much mischief, much anguish is caused by
your thoughtlessness-Ih had almost said your
criminal thoughtlessness. Should your wife
give you $1,000, how you would smile
how you would "lover her You would not
hurry from her presence without kind look
or work of cheer you would not be so
parsmonious of those endearing tones which
throw sunshine over the cloudiest day. Man,
do you think with what beautiful colors such
tones and looks clothe all that is rough and
dreary with what a halo of glory they in
vest the routine toll of life how easy they
make the most irksome duties Be no long
er penurous of love.
Giving you, as she constantly does, from
the invaluable treasures of her soul, riches
that gold cannot buy, wealth which you feel
transcends the whole earth, will not you ac-
knowledge it by bestowing those tokens of
regard which are, to her real life, as the sum
light to vegetation Let the bestowment Of
them be free and frequent. Loose yourself
from that high tension slacken that perpet-
ual strain or, rather, come up from the chaos
of clashing interests which ingulf you, in
your mere business affairs Be man such
man as such woman deserves. Then, she
will be happy and you can not fix her value
at 81 800 The world is not rich enough to
buy her. Let her know how you valce her.
Let her enjoy your appreciation allow it to
smooth her pathway and beautify the atmos-
here Of domestic life
Man become worthy Of your wife.-Life

How WINE is MADE IN CALIFORNIA The
first operation in the process of wine-makng,
after the grapes arrive at the mill, is to shell
them off the stems; six men are employed in
this operation. The grapes, as they come
from the vineyard, are thrown upon coarse
wire sieves, which are firmly set at an angle
of about forty degrees, above and around the
mills. Wooden forks are used to shell the
grapes, which, as they are detached and
moved about on the sieves, fall through into
hopper, which conveys them to the MILL
The stems remain upon the sieves. and are
removed by hand The mill is formed by two
horizontal wooden cylinders, about three feet
long and ten inches or foot in diameter.
These are kept in motion by means of crank,
which is easily turned by one man. The
mashed grapes fall from the cylinders into a
large shallow tank, from which the juice rap
idly flows of, and, passing through couple
of seves to separate any skins or seeds which
flow along with it, is raised by pump and
conducted to the fomenting tubs. These YES
sells hold from eight to fifteen hundred gallons
each. The juice in this state, fomented with
out the skins and pulp, produces white wine.
The skins and pulp, together with the seeds,
are removed to other tubs where, during the
process of fermentation, coloring matter is
extracted, forming red wine.
To give high color to the wine, the po-
mace, as il rises to the surface during fermen-
tation, is frequently broken up and stirred
into the wine. This is only practiced when
the juice, pulp, and skins are fermented to-
gather in the same vessel.
After the mash is sufficiently fermented,
which occupies from ten to fifteen days, the
wine is drawn off into pipes and the pomace
is then taken to the press, where it is subiec-
ted to the pressure produced by five-inch
screw Surrounding and attached to this
screw is a drum Of about ten feet in diameter: !:
a rope is wound upon this drum and one end
carried to a capstan, when the power Of two
or more men is applied to long bars, which
produce leverage of no Insignificant amount.
Five men are employed in this branch of the
operation.
The daily product of wine is two thousand
gallons, and the estimated product of the
present vintage is eighty thousand gallons.
Notwithstanding the pressure which has
been applied to force tho bruised grape to
yield its spirit, yet so endurabIe are the ex-
hilarating qualities Of this fruit that the po-
mace still contains enough to tempt the cupid
ity of man so the pomaoe is sold to distil-
lers, at the rate of FIVE dollars for the DO
mace from which one thousand gallons of wine
have been made The pomace is mixed with
water and then subjected to distilling, and
the result is good distillation of pure grape
brandy.-Los Argcles Star.

The Maid Of the Mill,

BY g. B. A.
Have you seen young maiden whose rich, ebon
hair,
With its gentle caress, kisses shoulders so fair?
FROM her glossy, waved tresses the sunbeam is
glanced,
And the starlight but fingers among them en-
tranced.
There's place in my heart
That no other can fill
She's the one that love-
She's the Maid of the Mill.
She is known by the curve of her tempting, ripe
lips,
From which, lured by their sweetness, the honey
bee sips;
And necter he finds that no flow 'rets disclose,
Better far than is hid 'twixt the leaves of the rose
And as fragrant her breath
As the peach-blooms distill,
Which encircle the brow
OF the Maid of the Mill.
From her dark, witching eyes she sends glances so
bright,
(Should their frnges neer veil them il ne er could
be night)
could bask in their beams and be happy for aye,
While my heart, in its ecstasy, melted away.
Twas free as the winds
OF the mountains until
! was charmed by the eye
OF the Maid of the MILL
Have you heard her glad voice, whose soft, musical
tone
The blhe birds, in their envy, may claim as their
own?
Yet they cease their gay warbling and list to her
song
As it's borne on the wings of zephyr along.
No cnrapturing sound
Through my heart sends a thrill
Like the voice of my love
Like the Maid of the Mill.
She's as graceful and light as the proud-stcpping
fawn,
Or the willows that lave in the stream by the lawn;
And the violets peep from their hiding of green
AS she passes to fashion themselves to her mien.
As the shadows at eve
When the sun gilds the hill
Is the glide of my girl
Is the Maid of the Mill.
Should you see my beloved, bid her haste to the
grove;
Meath the tree of our irysting I'll tell her my love,
While around us the heavens their arches shall bow,
As we troth to each other our boest vow.
There's place in my heart
That no other can fill
She's the one that / love
She's the Maid of the Mill.

AN UNAPPREcIArIvE FATHER.-A young
friend of ours tells the following story Of him
himself; ; When young, he read the well
known story Of George Washington's love of
truth, and his fathers love of the noble prin-
ciples of his son, SO well manifested on the
occasion we refer to, of Georges cutting
down the cherry tree, acknowledging his
transgression, and receiving full and free
pardon, besides praise and carresses from his
father. SO, Jim, actuated by noble impulse,
thought he would try the experiment on
He supplied himself with the necessary hatch
ct and going into his fathers orchard cut
down several choice fruit trees He then
coolly sat down to await the "old MANS
coming, and as soon as he made his appear
ance, marched up to him with an important
air, acknowledged the deed, expecting the
next thing on the programme would be tears,
benedictions and embraces from offended par
ent. But, sad to relate, instead of this the
old gentleman caught up hickory and gave
him an "all-fred lamming." Jim was no
