Army boots and shoes, Having the soles
screwed to the uppers by means Of brass
screws, are being manufactured in PhiIa.

turned out each day, and the work IS almost
wholly performed by machinery driven 81
steaill In this system the .ippers, after
having been cut by hand, are screwed to-
gether by machine, and the souls pressed
into shape BY an iron mould driven by
steam. The two are slightly attached by
hand, and then takellt to the brass screw-ina-
chine, which is about file size of' an ordinary
lathe, and controlled BY asinsle workman.
Fhe shoe is lait upon Il movable arm of
steel. and Il placed under the upper gear
ing % which long brass wire oiie-eiehth Of
an inch III diameter is fed. BY one move
nicnt Z thread is cut upon the brass wire.
and the screw thus made is forced through
the sole and uppers, and Is Iiveted Oh the
inside under 4 pressure Of 1, 700 pounds.
Jilst as the operation is completed, the
screw is cut loose from the rod close to tile
soles and the operator repeats the action
until the shoe is studded with brass scresss
from toe to heel. The ends Of the wire are
cslt off by two rapidly revolving discs, and
they are then fled down to q level with

LOVE.

Love is not made of kisses, or of sighs,
of tlingine hands. or of the soroceries
And subtle witchcrafts of tallnring eyes.
Love is not made of broken whispers no!
Nor OF the blnshing cheek, whose answering glow
Tells that the ear has heard the accents low.
Love Is net made of tears. nor yet of smiles:
of qniyeripg lips. or of eEticing wiles;
Love liz not tempted: he himself beguiles.
This is Loves language. but this ie not Love.
Ii VIC know aught of Love. how shall we dare
10 say that this is Love, when well aware
That these are common things and Love rare
AS separate strcams may, blending. ever roll
In course united. SO of soul TO soul,
Loveis the union into one sweet whole
AS molten metals mingle; as a chord
Swells sweet in harmony !: when Love is lord
Two hearts are ono, as letters form word
One heart. one mind, one soul and one desire
A kindred fancy, and a sister fire s
of thought and passion !; these can Love inspire.
This makes heayenof earth for this is Love.
