LABOR.

Toll swings the axe and forests bow,
The seeds break out in radiant bloom;
Rich harvests smile behind the pillow,
And cities cluster round the loom;
Where lettering domes and tapering spires
Adorn the vale and crown the hill,
Stout labor lights its beacon fires,
And plumes with smoke the forge and mill.
The monarch oak, the woodlands pride,
Whose trunk is scanned with lightning scars
Toll launches on the restless tide,
And their unrolls the flag of stars.
The engine with its lungs of fame,
And ribs of brass, and joints of steel,
From labor's plastic fingers came,
With sobbing valve and whirling wheel.
IT'S Labor works the magic press,
And turns the crank in hives of toll,
Ard beckons angels down TO bless
Industrious hands on sea and soil.
Here sunbrowned toll with shining spade,
Links lake to lake with silver ties,
Strung thick with palaces Of trade,
And temples towering to the skies.

BATHING, when INDUCED in at an early hour in
the morning, is conducive to health; but at noon
evening, when the body is fatgued and the
blood excited, is often injurious. Morning baths
act tonic on most constitutions, and give life
and vigor to the frame while evening baths have
a directly opposite effect School boys sometimes
injure themselves by bathing too often, and re-
manning in the water too long. Five minutes is
long any should spend in bath-tub,
river or pond, and in many instances that is too
much. Ifpersons of sedentary lives wish to enjoy
health, let them rise early, take plunge bath, dry
off with a coarse towel, have breakfast, and then
take moderate walk before commencing the la
bors of the day. Try the experiment for one
week, and you will readily discover improve
ment in mind and body.

How THE INDIANS MAKE WHIsKEY.-The
Apache Indians have a mode of making whiskey
which would appear novel TO the manufacturers of
that article. The firing up process is very slow;
yet these Apaches seem to get liquor which makes
good "drunk" come. The process is as follows:
The corn is first soaked for twenty-four hours
hole is then dug in the ground, generally in
wigwam, and some dry grass laid on the bottom;
on this grass the corn is placed and layer of
grass over it. Four or FIVE times day warm water
is sprinkled over the corn, and at night the family
sleep on it TO increase the warmth, and make the
sprout quick. At the end of four or five days
the is al sprouted; it is then dried and
pounded fine, put in kettle and boiled for five
hours; when cooled, it is mixed with sugar and
flour, and left to ferment for twelve hours, when it
is ready for drinking Although not rank to the
taste, and fiery, its Intoxicating power is very
great, and when an Indian has quart or two
aboard he don't care copper who is President
of the United States
