\ writer in the Woodstock Standard

factory at i:no>burg:
The building is one hundred and eighty
feet long, thirty feet wide and about eight
cen feet length Of posts. On the ground
floor are four large watts, holding four
thousand pounds OF milk each, lined with
tin and resting on frame work about a
foot high The vats are provided with q
chamber in which cold water is placed for
the purpose of reducing the temperature
OF the milk The vats being filled, the
temperature is reduced TO 20 degrees for
the reception of the rennet, and then rais-
ell AGAIN by the Use of steam TO 81 de-
grees, after whicA the process is nearly the
same as that usually adopted in private
dairies. The whey is drawn off by a sy-
phon. the curd is placed in hoops about
nineteen inches in diameter. making the
cheese to weigh from one hundred to one
hundred and twenty pounds each, and
they are then placed in the press, which is

and let it lie for some minutes where the
rays of the sun may fall upon its skin,

latlon between sunshine and a vigorous hu-
man being. Seclusion from sunshine is
one of the greatest misfortunes of civilized
life. The same cause which makes pota-
to-vines white and sickly when grown in
dark cellars operates to produce the pale
sickly girls that are reared in our parlors.
Expose either to the direct rays of the
sun, and they begin to show color, health
and strength. When in London. some
years ago, l visited an establishment which
had acquired a wide reputation for the
cure Of those diseases in which prostration
and nervous arrangement were prominent
symptoms. l soon found the secret of
success in the use made of sunshine. The
slate roof had been removed and glass
one substituted. The upper story was di-
vided into sixteen small rooms, each pro-
vided with lounges, washing apparatus,
etc., The patient, on entering his little
apartment, removed all his clothing, and
exposed himself to the direct rays of the
sun. Lying on the lounge and turning
over from time to time, each and every
part of the body was exposed to the life
giving rays of the sun. Several London
physicians candidly confessed to me that
many cases which seemed only waiting for
the shroud were galvanized into life and
health by this process.-Dr. Dio Leris.

o willow, why forever weep.
AS one who mOurns an endless wrong?
What hidden woe can lie so deep?
What utter grief can last so long?
The Spring makes haste with step elate
Your life and beauty to renew;
She even bids the roses wait,
And gives her first sweet care to you.
The welcome redbreast folds his wing
To pour for you his richest strain;
To you the earliest bluebirds sing,
Till all your light stems thrill again.
The sparrow trills his wedding song
And trusts his tender brood to you;
Fair Towering vines, the summer long,
With clasps and kiss your beauty WOO.
The sunshine drapes your limbs with light
The rain braids diamonds in your hair,
The breeze makes love to you at night
Yet still you droop, and still despair.
Beneath your boughs. at fall of dew.
By lovers lips is softly told
The tale that all the ages through
Has kept the world from growing old.
But still, though April's buds unfold.
Or summer sets the earth aleaf,
Or autumn pranks your robes with gold,
You sway and sigh in graceful grief.
Mourn not forever, unconsoled,
And keep your secret, faithful tree!
No heart in all the world can hold
A sweeter grace than constancy.

Little Charlie.


o Sunshine, making golden spots
Upon the carpet at my feet
The shadows of the coming flowers!
The phantoms of forget-me-nots
And roses red and sweet
How can you seem so full of joy,
And we so sad at heart and sore?-
Angel of death. again thy wings
Are folded at our door!
We can but yearn through length of days
For something lost, we facied ours:
Well miss thee, darling, when the Spring
Has toucht the world to flowers!
For thou vast like the dainty month
Which strews the violets at his feet:
Thy life was slips of golden sun
And silver tear drops braided sweet!
For thou vast light and thou vast shade,
And thine were sweet capricious ways!-
Now lost in purple languors, now
No bird in ripe red summer days
Was half as wild as thou!
o little Presence! everywhere
We find some touching trace ofthee-
A pencil mark upon the wall lessly
That " naughty hands " made thought.
And broken toys around the house
Where he has left them they have lain
Waiting for little busy hands
That will not come again,
Will never come again!
Within the shrouded room below
He lies a-cold-and yet we know
1t is not Charlie there!
1t is not Charlie cold and white,
1t is the robe, that, in his flight
He gently cast aside!
Our darling hath not died!
o rare pale lips! o clouded eyes!
O violet eyes grown dim!
All we'll! this little lock of hair
Is all of him.
Is all of him that we can keep
For loving kisses, and the thought
OF him and Death may teach Us more
Than all our life hath taught!
God, walking over starry spheres,
Did clasp his tiny hand,
And lead him through fall of tears,
Into the Mystic Land!
Angel of Death! we question not:
Who asks of Heaven, why does it rain
Angel! we bless the, for thy kiss
Hath hushed the lips of Pain
No wherefore" ITO what good end?"
Shall out of doubt and anguish creep
Into our thought; we bow our heads:
He gireth HIS 6elored sleep!
