At the Gate.

And where were you just now, Mabel
Where have you been so long?
The moon il up, and all the birds
Have sung their evening song
l saw you lettering down the path,
So lonely and so late,
Beyond the we'll and lilac bush,
And hanging by the gate.
| love to hear the birds, mother,
And see the rising moon,
And, oh the summer air is sweet
Beneath the sky of June.
My COW is MIXED, my hens are coopcd,
And washed are cup and plate,
And so l wandered out a while,
To hang upon the gate.
The gate is 10y the road, Mabel,
And idle folks go by,
Nor should a maiden brook the glance
OF every stranger eye.
Besides, / thought l saw cap
I'm sure You had mate
So tell me who vas with you, child,
Just hanging at the gate.
Now you know just as well, mother,
Twas only Harry Gray,
He spoke such words to me tonight,
l knew not what to say
And mother, oh for your dear sake,
I only babe him wait:

Mind Your Own Concerns.

Mind your own concerns, my friend,
For they are yours alone;
Don't talk about your neighbor's faults,
But strive 10 mend your own;
Suppose he docs not always lead
a truly pious life;
What matter if he sometimes frets
Or quarrels with his wife?
Don't mcddle-let him know. my friend,
Your better nature spurns
10 act the spy on him or his
Just mind your own concerns.
les, mind your own concerns,my friend,
And presently you'll find
That Nil your time is occupied,
And you've quite enough to mind;
Why need you care if Shocks or Spooks
Should wed with Sally Jones?
What matter if your neighbor C.
a half million owns?
The money is not yours, my friend,
Though gol.len stores he earns;
SO do not envy him his wealth,
But mind your own concerns.
Yes, mind your own concerns, my friend,
1t is better plan
Than always to be spying out
The deeds of brother man.
Remember that all persons have.
Though hidden from your view,
Thoughts that TO them of right belong,
And not at all 20 you;
And also bear in mind, my friend,
A generous nature worms
No secret from neighbours breast
So mind your own concerns.

THE Engineering and Mining Journal
has frequently expressed the conviction
that the time was near at hand when
water-gas Hydrogen and carbonic oxide)
would come into general use, replacing
Goa for domestic purposes. in cities at
least, and in many metallurgical opera
tions. 1t also thinks it probable that,
enriched, it will supplant the coal-gas
now in general use for Illuminating pur-
poses, since it has been fully proven that
enriched water gas is cheaper and much
better illnminant than coal-gas, and one
in no respect more dangerous. The
great German physicist, Rudolph Wag-
ner, styles this new process OF making
water-gas tan Experimenting invention"
Interesting experiments are now being
made on the invitation of the Swedish
Ironmasters' Association, with the manu-
facture of water-gas by the "Strons pro-
cess" having in view its adaptability in
many of the operations of iron manu-
facture. So promising are they that
Swedish metallurgists predict through
its use revolution in iron manufacture.
Large permanent water-gas works are
being erected there, and others will
shortly be erected in Russia and Ger
many. The chief economy in the use
of water-gas is not so. much in its greater
caloric equivalent, however marked that
NAV be, as in the greater calorific in
tensity OF its flame, and in the fact that
a larger proportion of its cOmbustible
elements is actually utilized.
