and nice, and it goes to the cardlng-ma
chine. This machine lays all the threads
one way by drawing it through sets OF wire
teeth. -
It comes out on roller, and is taken OH
by still another roller, on which it looks
like wide fieecy ribbon. But it don't keep
that pretty look very long. 1t is drawn
through a tunnel, which makes it small and
muchfi rmer 1t isn't fine enough, yet, how
ever, and it goes between another set OF
rollers. wonder if there's anything that
can't be done with rollers!
When it comes out pressed quite firm it
is called rowing, and is ready to be spun:
You'll hardly believe me, but the spin
ming is done on mule!
It's a very peculiar mule, must admit,
made of wood and iron, and carrying TWEEN
ty-two hundred spindles. So it spins TWEEN
ty-two hundred threads at once, and is
wonderful machine, if it has funny name.
1t spins the loose rowing into a much fl
ner thread, slightly twisted. This thread
next runs through gas flame to burn of
the little fuzZ, then over Il brush to take
off the ashes, and then through a hole in
brass plate Just the size of the thread.
Then it is wound in skeins, and put up
in five OF ten pound bundles.
After all these travels the thread has a
little rest before it starts through the last
machine-the one that makes the soft cot
ton into the solid strong thread we buy on
spools to sew with.
| The skeins are wound on bObblns, and
put on the machine. Six of the fine threads
start together.
Look on spool, and you'll read, Best
six cord cotton" That means, as said
| that six of these threads are united to
make our sewing thread.
But must tell you how they 60. First
over glass rod, and through little trough
of water and then between rollers to press
them tightly together. Leaving the rollers.
they go down, twisting as they go, to where
a SPOOL is fastened There it is regularly
wound on a firm smooth thread, while the
spool moves slowly up and down us 1t
winds so as to make regular layers of it.
Now the fruit of the little cotton seed has
become beautiful spool of thread, ready
for "a useful life. Before it goes out into
the world it is ornamented ut each end with
Il round paper, gummed and stuck on by
some child. The last paper is put over the
end of the thread to keep it from getting
! loose and then it is put into packages of a
dozen spools.
You've seen fine thread, perhaps as fine
as No. 200, which we use on sewing ma
chimes, but what would you say to thread
No. 600, only one-third the size OF that:
And how would you like to see that cobweb

For the Freeman,
YOUTH AND OLD AGE.

Days of my youth-ye have passed away.. ..t.s
Hairs of my youth-ye are frosted and gray,
Eyes of my youth-your keen sight is no more,
Cheeks of my youth-ye furrowed all Ger,
Strength of my youth-all your vigor is gone.
Thoughts of my youth-your gay visions are flown
Days of my YOUTH wish not your recall 88 -
Hairs of my youth-Pm content you should fall,
Ewes of my youth-ye much evil have seen,
Cheeks of my youth-bathed in tears ye have been
Strength of my youth-why lament your decay
Thoughts ofmy youth-ye have led me astray.
Days OF my age-ye will shortly be past
Pains of my age-yet awhile can We last,
joys of my ge-in true wisdom delight-
Eyes of my age-be reli yion your light
Thoughts of my age-dIead We not the COLI sol,
Hopes of nv age-be ye liked on Your God.

"What can be done to keep our Young
Men in Vermont Z"

Read before the Farmers Meeting at q
session of the State Board of agriculture
held at East Montpelier, Jan4ary9, 1874.
1t requires no argument of mine to prove
that which is self-evldent, that there has
been a constant drain from our State of
many of our best and ablest men. So
great has been the migration from our
State, that 60 where you will throughout
the length and breadth of our land you
may find Vermonters.
Vermont! We are proud of the name ::
we are proud of her institutions, We are
proud of her sons and daughters, of ner
rock bound hills and fertile valleys! We
pride ourselves in our schools, in educating
our sons for usefulness. But with all our
boosted pride of State and institutions, the
fact remains a lamentable fact, it seems
our yOnng men, our men OF ability and
enterprise, have been and are constantly
leaving us. They see, or imagine they
see, in other States, in other lands, induce
ments to business which our State does
does not afford. Thus with ambitious
desires to crafty, and with imaginations
fred, Tin many cases no doubt with Wis
ions of hastily gotten wealth, and position
easily gained, they go forth from US, taking
with them wealth of brain and muscle,
to enrich and build up other States and
lands While we who are left are left to
suffer loss, and feel the paralyzing effects
of a virtue, a strength, motive power
gone out from us, in all our departments
Of business, a measure at least of which
should be cherished and nourished within
our own borders.
That our State should suffer so much in
this direction, there must seem to be good
and potent reasons. And not the least of
these may be the fact that It'll the apparent
policy of our capitalists not to encourage
and build up manufactures. And while
they have made haste to add to their stocks
and securities, they have been slow to see
that our State, rich in resources and mate
rial falls far behind our neighboring States
IN this enterprise. They have built up
manufactures. thus bringing to them the
material for large towns and cities. re-

CanSt thou take up again our common l0i,
And live as we live? Canst thou buy and sell

Work and get gain and eat, and drink and sleep
Sin and repentas these thy breth, en- do?

Who hast been called the Christ of Nazareth?

Hanging like him upon the dreadful tree,
Canst thou, uncrowned, forget thy royalty?

father and mother went away to stay most
of the day and left Frank and me at home.
They told us not to 90 out of the yard,
and we always minded father: but after
they We're gone we begun to hunt around
for something to amuse US. We didn't
have any playthings or books, so after a
while we spied fathers pipe hanging W
by the chimney, and we thought we would
take smoke. Frank gotan old clay pipe
and | took the big brown one with tho

lighted them, Just as We had seen father dc

Doors AND SHOES-Said dealer in
fashionable boots and shoes the other day,
1--WE make all our goods now with wide
soles, which is a good thing. as it prevents

1.-THE style" to recover themselves, we
cannot predict the increase of comfort
which will accrue to men, women and
children, albeit at the expense of the Chi
ropodist. "Our newest styles have low,
broad heels" said the above-quoted expert
in the matter. Joy upon joy that the
ankles of little children will no longer be
misshaped and crooked by their endeavors
to balance themselves upon their narrow
soles and high sloping heels; that our feet
need no longer be thrown forward to the
distress of the crowded and curled up toes.
and that our ankles be no longer in con-
slant danger of sprains from sudden turn
ings. A pitiful sight is that which one not
unfrequently sees upon the streets-the
enlarged, bullying ankles of women and
children, caused, we believe, by the high
French heel which fashion prescribed, and
