Two girls belonging to a church

they were talking over the fashions
They gave the alarm, when a man
living near the church put q board

got safely to the ground they look

stuck up through the board. Some

Is there no secret place on the face of
the earth,
Where charity dwelleth, where virtre
hath birth;
Where bosoms in mercy and kindness
will heaye,
And the poor and the humble shall
ask and receive?
Is there no place. whele knock from
the poor,
Will bring kind angel to open the
door?
All! you may search the wide world
wherever You can,
There is no open door for the money
less man!
Go look to your hall, where the chan
delier's light
Drives of with its splendor the dark
ness Of night,
Where the rich, hanging velvet, in
shadowy fold,
Sweeps gracefully down with its trim
ming of gold
And the mirrors of silver take up and
renew
In long lighted yistas, the 'wildering
view;
Go there if in your patches, and find,
ifyou can,
A welcoming smile for the moneyless
Go look to yon church, of the cloud
reaching spire,
Which gives back the sun its same
look Of red FIRE,
Where the columns and arches are
gorgeous within,
And the walls seem as pure as q soul
without sin.
Go down the long aigle--see the rich
and the great
In the pomp and the pride Of their
worldlRstate--
Walk down in your patches, and find
ifyou can,
Who opens pew for moneyless man.
Go look to your judge in his dark flow
ing gown,
With the scales wherein thelsw weigh
eth quietly down,
Where he frowns on the weak, and
smiles on the strong,
And Furnishes right, while he justifes
wrong;
Where jurors their lips on the bible
have laid
To render verdict they've already
made;
Go there in the court room, and find
ifyou can,
Any law for the cause of moneyless
man.
Go look in your bank, where Mammon
has told,
His hundreds and thousands Of silver
and gold;
Where, safe from the hand ofthe stary-
ing aud poor,
Lies pile upon pile Of glittering ore.
Walk up 10 the eounter-sh there you
LAY stay,
Till your limbs grow old and your hairs
turn gray,
And you'll end at the bank, not one Of
the clan,
With money to lend to moneyless man
Then go to your hovel-no raven has
fed
The wife who has suffered 30 long for
her bread;
Kneel down by her pallet and kiss the
death frost
From the lips Of the angel your poverty
lost.
Then turn your agony upward to God,
And bless, while it smites, the chasten-
ing rod
And you'll find at the end o.life's little
span,
A welcome above FOR the moneyless

THE ARCH FIEND.

Men don't believe in the devil now, as their
fathers used to do;
They've forced the door of the broadest creed to
let his majesty through,
There isn't print of his cloven foot, or a fiery
dart from his bow
To be found in earth. or air to-day for the world
has voted so.
But who is mixing the fatal draught that palses
heart and brain
And leads the bier of each passing year with
ten hundred thousand slain?
Who blights the bloom of the land to-day with
the fiery darts of hell
If the devil isn't and never was ? Won't some
body rise and tell
Who dogs the steps of the toiling saint, and
digs the pit for his feet?
Who sows the tares in the field of time wherever
God sows his wheat?
The devil is voted not to be, and of course the
thing is true;
But who is doing the kind of work the devil
alone should do
We are told he does not go about as the rearing
But who shall we hold responsible for the ever
lasting row
To be heard in home, in church, in state, to the
earth's remotest bouno,
If the deyil by unanimous vote is nowhre to be
found I?
Won't somebody step to the front forthwith and
and make their bow and show
How the frauds and the crimes of a single day
sprang up? We want to know.
The devil is fairly voted out, and of course the
DEVILS gone,
But simple people would like 10 know who car
RES the business on.

The Ice Makers.

We have visited the establishment of
the Georgia Ice Company where the
manufacture of ice was certainly as in
teresting as anything We have SEEN On
the ground floor is boiler fifty feet long
and four and a half feet in diameter,
containing $50 feet of half.inch pipe
The boiler is kept filled with aqua
ammonia, which is separated by the
steam heat into ammonia gas and water.
The gas leaving the water in the boiler
forces its way through a six-inch pipe
outside the building to the roof, four
stories up, where it passes into $4,000
feet of coiled pipes into which it is con-
verted into liquid by cold water thrown
over it IN fountain jets. This liquid
passes into $1,000 feet of two-inch pipe
arranged in vertical sections 30 feet high
and three feet apart, and its sudden
liberation into THESE parts turns the
liquid pure ammonia into vapor land the
sudden expansion makes the pipes in
tensely cold. Now, above these hun
dreds of vertical pipes are innumerable
little fountain jets throwing spray, freez-
ing gradually, forming an icicle of pure
ice around each pipe. The gas goes into
10000 feet of absorbing pipe, and, being
cooled by water running on the pipes, it
is met by water forced into the pipes,
and thus converted back into the acqua
ammonia, which goes into big boiler
and is used over again-there is no
waste, the same ammonia being used and
re-absorbed any number of times. The
water used for the spray is drawn from a
we'll rs feet deep on the premises, and
the large blocks of ice (which are loos-
ened from the pipes by little hot steam,
and chopped off by negroes, who stand
upon pulley staging with their feet
wrapped up in thick swabs of cotton
sacking for warmth) come out pure and
clear, and entirely free from any odor or
Objectionable taste.
After the pipes have been stripped
about five weeks are required for new
lot of the requisite thickness to form
But of course the pipes are never all
stripped at the same time, the ice being
in all stages of formation. The factory
has capacity of thirty-fve tons per day,
mand, and it isn't stored, but cut every
day as it is delivered, and sells at from
SO to $12 per ton. As We picked our
way among the cleaning and uneven
pillars, with the water dripping and
sp1ashing down upon us, and the only
light coming in through The smallest of
windows at the top, it seemed as if we
we're in some underground ice cave.
The whole building and its apparatus
would cause strangers to wonder what in
the world it was designed for.-l Hart

Music and Poetry In School.

In the primary schools of Germany
the pupils are taught to sing and
recite poetry. A correspondent of the
Boston Journal, describing what be saw
and heard while visiting one of these
schools, shows how the esthetic tastes of
the children are developed. When the
recess came, at the end of the first hour,
he asked the mistress if they had a sing
ing-hour that day.
mo" she replied, "but if it makes
you plaazure, We viii happily zing.'
And so when the girls came in from a
romp and lunch of black bread sand
wich, when their breath returned and the
glow was on their cheeks, the school
mistress drew forth her violin from a
green baize bag, tuned it carefully, laid
her chin down upon it as lovingly as
Camilla Urso would have done, and &C
companied the school with great skill, as
they sang the beautiful song of Lore
lei." It was strange enough to see this
young lady teacher leading her school
with the music of violin, raising her
head now and then and beating the time
with her bow with the air of an old con-
ductor. But this IS requirement OF
every teacher, man or woman, and they
cannot pass examination without 1t. SO
go where you will among the German
''volk" schools. the green baize bag will
be hanging on the wall, and the teachers
are skilled in the use of the king of In
struments.
The rest of the hour was devoted to d
study coming twice week in all the
schools recitation of German poetry
committed to memory by the entire
school, In the young classes the poem
is recited line by line, first by the teacher
| repeated by single scholar, then by
several, finally by the whole class; and
though very simple and short with these
primary classes, the poems are all beau
tiful and grow constantly longer and
deeper as the years go on, until il
higher classes scholars are introduced tt
the very best of Goethe, Schiller and thu
standard poets of their mother tongue
Scholars in the upper class are SO thor
oughly trained that they will recite witt
great ease Schiller's Song of the Bell,
and twenty others of the same worth ant
character, with none of those wry face
1 either we remember TO have seen whei
on once or twice month a similar ex
ercise dragged itself through some nn
willing and half-taught school.

WHAT THE FARMER SHOULD STUDY
The farmer should study the laws of con-
centration. He should learn how to con-
centrate his crops into the best paying
articles. Does he consider that butter,
beef, pork, mutton and cheese represent
only a certain amount of grass, hay and
grain that his farm produces? That in
stead of selling the raw commodities. he
cum by putting them into these articles.
go much better returns for his productsg
His study shorld be how to transform
the raw products of his farm into some
thing that is concentrated and will bring
him most money. What be raises has
to go to some market. By eondensing
it, little freight will have to be paid, and
TINS much will be saved. A farm is not
only farm; it is or should be factory
for changing the raw products into arti-
cles of general consumption that have
commercial value the world over-that
are of the best quality, that keep we'll
and sell well, and bring prices that will
pay well for the skill. labor and capital
employed in producing them.
