TUE WAY TO Look AT IT.--In all
labor there is poetry, IL we can but find
it, containing It's deepest meaning and
its truest realities One mechanic sees
nothing beyond bis tools and their daily
use 4, another bcbolds the civilization re-
finement which his work is daily spread
ing. One merchant measures his bust
ness only by the yearly account Of profit
and loss another sees it in the extent Of
commerce, the employment given to labor,
triumph Of honest principle. One ply
stefan looks ut his profession only as
ladder for his own advancement and
popularity; another bcholds suffering
assuaged, diseases overcome, s6aiiasy
habits enforced, hcalthful living Sc
cured, happiness increased One wo-
man sees in her house only an area of
hard work and physical comfort; an
other secs exquisite pictures Of possible
happiness. honor, development and value
which may be cherished with il, and may
issue from it 10 bless society and strength.
en- the nation. II is only as these higher
truths Of labor become wildly pictured
in the imagination that labor itself can
rise to It's true position. Its poetry is
its best reality and cnnobles all its prose
Of hard work or dry details.

A Literary Curiosity.

"a sacrilegious son Of Belial. who
suffered from bronchitis, having exhaust

The Eye.

The eye is preserved in the convenient
form of sphere or ball by the simple
device of having its interior cavity filed
with liquid, which prevents the limp and
otherwise flexible coats from pickering
up into any irregularity of shape. It is
like bladder distended with water,
which is firm and tense on account of
the contained liquid being 30 shut in by
the membraneous wall that il cannot es-
cape anywhere from the tight grasp in
which it is held, There are, however,
in the interior of the eye, two quite dis
tinct chambers in which this liquid IL
distributed, one in front of. and one be-
hind, the crystalline lens The lens
hangs us it were, in the midst of the
liquid The portion which is in front
Of the lens is little moro than very
weak aqueous solution Of salt, and is on
that account termed the aqueous hnmor
Of the eye; the portion which il behind
more nearly resembles solution Of white
Of egg On account of this somewhat
thicker consistency it is termed the vtre-
GUS or glass-liko humor. Both humors,
however, exert very nearly the same in
auenco upon the vibrations of the light,
and the optical part of the eye thus
comes to be considered as composed sim
ply of two rcfracting parasitic denser
lens and the thinner humors. The iris
is loosely suspended in the aqueous humor
in front Of the lens, so that it has the
water-liko liquid bathing both surfaces,
and thus enjoys the same ready freedom
of movement that it would possess if il
were simply immersed in water. The
humors Of the eye are supplementary
aids to the image-forming capacities Of
the lens. But they are only subordi-
nate aids, as their influence in this par
ticular is comparatively small For sim
plicity's sake the crystal lens aud the as
ISOLATED humors may be looked upon as
together constituting one single lens.
and the visual power Of the eye in reality
depends upon three curved surfaces which
are found in the combination of humors
and lens tho front surface of the globe,
or cornea, upon which light in the first
instance strikes as it enters the trans
parent media of the eye, and the trent
aud the back portuberant surfaces of tho
crystalline mass itself The position Of
the definite image within the eye is de-
termined by the form of these surfaces,
taken IL connection with the density Of
the crystalline substance and its ASSOC
ciatcd humors - The EdinJurg Repiem.

That shades with death our nuptal bliss,
That blends beneath one earnest gaze
The story of two wondrous days?
The kiss Of death, of blushing bride,
Sarcastic blend Unmarried, Died.
Throbbing breast OF heart that bleeds,
fearful, bright or dull eye reads
Lines whose message Is not clear,
Blurred and broken through tear;
Lily fingers, hand Of age,

Sport with man Unmarried, Died.
Here requiem, there song,
Blend rs roll their notes along,

Greet glad or passing soul;
To the ohancel call the crowd,
Clad in satin, gown or shroud,
To the church we twice may ride;
Heed the headings-Married Died.
Hoist the anchor, sail away;
Summer winds or sunlit bay
Lure thee DER the outer bar,
Where the whlte-capped breakers are;
Staunch thy painted shallop be,
Strong to ride life's restless sea.
God shall rule the surging tide
That laps the shores oi--Married, Died
Orange blossoms, ripened wheat,
Sprigs OF rue or lilies sweet,
Curs Of gold or locks Of snow,
Wedding robes or garb of woe,
Hands in loving hands to rest,
Or folded lie on pulseless breast;
Who shall blooms and fruit divide,
So near the stories, Married Died?

A Tale of Vermont and Colorado.

Charles Jones, alias Julian, one of
the two miners who discoveried the
famous group of Robinson mines in
Colorado, after spending nearly
SS0,000 made from mines previously
discovered by him, died recently,
after protracted spree, in a saloon
at Leadville, Colorado, borrowing
the last So with which to continue
his debauch of his friend, Captain
Jacque, chief of the famous wig
ilanles" of Leadville. At the time
of his death Jones was the owner OF
quarter interest in The seven most
valuable mines out of the twelve con-
stituting the noted Robinson consoli-
dation, from which the Lieutenant
Governor Robinson made his for
tune of over million, and through
which he lost his life,-by an assas-
sims hand, as some most familiar
with the case still think. The heirs
OF Jones live in Vermont (also his
native state), and are very poor.
They did not learn of their brothers
death until some time after his de-
cease, and Robinson, SO the story
goes, succeeded through Vermont
attorney in getting them to accept
the paltry sum OF 81 200 for their in
ierest in Jones' estate valued at $780,
600, which was represented AS buuly
involved and worth no more than
the former amount. In the haste the
papers were not signed by all the
heirs, MS it now turns out, and the
property, which is now of immens Sc
value, will be contested for, although
the heirs are too poor TO wage an
equal battle. Captain Jacque came
to Vermont, and visited the heirs OF
Jones and employed Vermont officers
to investigate the matter, but sool
after returned to Colorado. The
death Of Robinson followed. Robin.

MISCELLANY.

A Neapolitan gardener, after years
of experiment, has produced a
canlelia with delicate perfume, and
he thinks it probable that these flow
ers may in the near future be SO cul.
tivated as to rival the rose in the
fragrance of its odor.
A new theory of the so-called fasci-
nation of birds by snakes is that the
bird mistakes the snakes tongue,
which the reptile keeps III rapid and
constant motion, for lively worm,
and watches it iptently with the an
ticipition of devouring 1t.
Some experiments by M. Gautier
appear to prove that human saliva
possesses, in a milder degree, the
same poisonous property as that of
serpents. The human saliva injected
nnder the skin of bird caused
death, with symptoms very closely
resembling those resulting from ser
pent bites.
Two Lcipsic chemists have devised
a process for obtaining sugar in II
permanently liquid form. This re-
suit is said 10 be effected by adding
to purified sugar solution small
quantity of citric acid, which COM
bines with the sugar and deprives it
OF its tendency 10 crystalline.
Late Investigations of German SCI
entists have shown that the electric
light is not only healthier than any
other method of illumination in
leaving the air purer, but that it in-
creascs the power of vision in some
respects, especially in distinguishing
colors Red, blue, green and yellow
are much more distinct under this
light than by daylight.
NJ. Pasteur has resolved to extend
his studies in vaccination to yellow
fever, with view of determining
whether or not the disease is due 10
parasites and can be guarded against
by incubation. A broad field of ill.,
vestigation is open to Pasteur, as it
is suggested by his discoveries thus
far that all contagious maladies may
be due to parasitic growths the viru-
lence of which may be SO reduced by
his method of inoculation as to rem
der this class of diseases no longer
matter of dread.

Jesus in Cana of GaIilee, and manifested
forth his glory; and his disciples believed on
him.
From there, the chapter goes on to
say, Jesus went TO Jerusalem and
scourged the money changers aud
dealers i'm oxen and sheep from the
temple. Now if Jesus. did not want
to teach the lesson that the sin was
in the abnse and not he use Of wine,
OF any other OF Gods gifts to man,
would he not have scourged the
guests assembled at the wedding
feast when they asked for more

they were in the habit-of drinking at
those old time wedding feasts, for it
is distinctly stated it was the custom
for EVERY man at the beginning %
set forth good wine, and when men
We're well drunk, then that W hich is
worse" Those old time Jews were
as sharp and cute as their modern
descendants. In the face of this
most conspicuous example of Jesus
Christ how can any church calling
itself christian, abolish the use of
wine from it's communion service or
denounce its moderate use on PROPER
occasions, without denying their
Master!
: There is 70 doubt whatever, but
the true spirit of the teachings of
Christ is that there is time to eat.
and time to drink a time to be.
merry and time to be sad time
TO dance and time to pray-all in
their proper time and place, and in
moderation. This is true temperance
and religion. Sensible people with
healthy minds and bodies, aud full
control over their appetites and pas
sions, will not be frightened into join

coherent rawlings Of reformed drunk i
ards who go about lecturing and cx-
themselves as awful exam

burning. II is the duty of our teach
ers and preachers to inculcate the
principles of true manhood, self deni-

may accomplish some good, but by

the true chri stian religion into con-
