NIGHTFALL.

The hush OF twilight, far and wide,
Falls on the green and slOping meadOWu.
All tremul0us the aSpens stand,
By way-worn zcphyrs lightly famed,
Where the clear brooklet's mimic tide
sweeps onward to the shadows
All day its sun-iiecked ripples flow
THROUGH pastures strewn with hay and
Through lonely glens where alders lean
To kiss the dimpled waves, unseen,
And sweet wild roses blush below
The bIambies dropping over!
BY this low bridge and moss-grown fence,
In ftful mood its music tarrieS;
While fiuted beach-lcaves wide dispread,
And circling swallows overhead
Move lightly, till eoch wavelet hence
SoTpo fair reflection carries.

soft twilight shadows climb and darken:

Shelter Saves Food:

Every keeper of animals would actu-
ally profit by a little study of chemistry
and physiology. Here is q short lesson:
All kinds of food, as hay, grain. bread,
meat, etc, are, like wood, mainly COM
posed of charcoal (carbOn) and water;
with considerable nitrogen in some of
them. To prove this, strongly heat any
of the above food materials in coal pit,
or better. under glass. Water. with
some nitrogen gas, will be driven off
and can be found in the glass receiver,
while only charcoal will remain. Let In
more air and the charcoal itself will
unite with the oxygen of the atmos.
phere, and also 60 of as transparent,
invisible carbonic acid gas. This chem
ical action sets at liberty heat that was
before concealed or insensible, the
same as when wood or coal is burned
rapidly in stove producing an active
fire; or as when wood decays, butgives
OIL heat so slow as not to be observed.
Exactly the same thing occurs when
any food is dissolved (digested) in the
stomach of animals or men, and is taken
into the blood and carried to all parts
Of the body. The blood gets oxygen
also from the air in the lungs and car
ries it all through the body. The atoms
of oxygen meet the atoms of digested
food. here, there, and everywhere In
the blood vessels. The two unite Just
as they do in stove; heat is produced.

but a great deal of it, taking the whole
blood circulation together, and so the
whole body is kept warm. though
heat Is constantly escaping from the
whole outside surface. Nature pro-
vides that the body shall always be Kept
warm. otherwise it would quickly per-
ish; and SO il the oxygen in the blood
don't find food enough'to keep up the
internal heat, it will attack and con-
sumo any fat or flesh stored in the body,
and thus make the animal poor.
We must have an ever-burning fire
in both the animal and human system.
If the surrounding atmosphere is cold,
and carries off heat rapidly from the
surface of the body, we must increase
the internal production of heat by put
ting in more food. or by surrounding
the body with a covering that will pre-
vent the escape of much heat.
Is it not plain then, that by keeping
animals warm. by means of close build

winds, less food will be needed. and
there will be less waste of flesh In max

Possibilities OF Cast.IrOn.

There is a class of cast-iron work that
formerly was imported more extensively
than now, which gave us minute articles
of use, and even ornamental appen-
dages to dress, so light in weight and so
apparently fragile in form rs to suggest
fine hand labor. 1t was supposed, says
the Metal Worker, that we had no ma
terial or means to reproduce such di-
minutive and fragile articles from cast
iron. But recent improvement, both in
material and manipulation, prove that
we can almost equal the delicacy of
what is known as the Berlin iron."
Fine charcoal iron possesses wonder
full properties of Auidity when in a molt-
en- state; it finds its way into the small
est interstices of the mold, and comes
out cooled, a definite reproduction of
the imprint of the pattern. So exact
is this reproduction that bare lines, to
be represented only by very fine wire,
come from the mold perfect in form
and quite tenacious in texture. Articles
of cast.iron, cast in a mold of sand,
which require fifty or hundred to bal
ance quarter-pound weight, are as
readily produced here rs articles weigh
ing pounds. 1t may be doubted if any
m''ai is capable of producing more di-
u4,nu,ise OH cts than iron. As in
slauc"S of the rr>,io'li'i,s of charcoal
iron in castings, let anyone eAamine the
delicate shoe-buckles and bclt-buckles,
the shawl-clasps and ornamental hair
pins, called steel, which bear a burn
ishcd surface rivaling that of silver. He
will find they are of cast-iron, very
brittle, and showing bright iron frac-
ture. Quantities of these articles are
made in England. They are said to be
cast in sand molds, the same as masses
of iron are cast, and that come out as
perfect rs the heavier castings. In
short, the possibilities of cast-iron range
from the utmost capacity of adjoining
cupolas, capable of melting thirty tons,
to the hand ladle that, with ten pounds
of metal, pours for 1000 different arti-
cles.

THE MONGOLIAN-

The whole moral, intellectual and financial. if not physical world IS con ceded tO revolve around the Hub" otherwise known as Boston. Its philos- ophers are wise and profound, and yet they sometimes fall short of the ire sistible conclusions reached through the rough school of experience Theory may resolve the world into impalpable powder within given time, yet the facts may likely vary the human programme Tn a slight degree, and the rudest ignora- mus, ,coltempOraneous with that epoch may Iidicule such theory in the light of his simple experience. This fact should govern the readers Of the Boston Herald in its treatment of the Chinese question, which 1t treats on high moral grounds, the brotherhood of man." From its distance from the actual scene of con- tact with the Chinese element, that jour- nal can only view them with puritan ical eye. In reviewing the action un the Chinese Immigration bill which lately passed the Senate, tine Herald says
 Senator HOar deserves credit for a broad humanity which includes the vel low man as well as the black man and the red man. The agitation against the Chinese IS low, ignorant and brutal. The prejudice which has excited demaSogues of various degrees of ignorance. from sand-lot spouters to United States Sen atoTs, is unworthy of our age and country.
 In the face Of this assertion doee not the fact carry great weight that brief residence among the ostracised race on the Pacific Coast rarely fails to work complete revolution of sentiment in the most intelligent humanitarian that ever travelled westward from Boston? The people of the Coast have learned the evils wrought by the presence of the Chinaman through actual association with them, and DO amount of theory can change their belief that the viper has not bitten them so long as they feel his fangs in their flesh.

As lawyer, statesman and debater, Senator EdmunGs ranks among the high- est. The country hears from him on all great public questions, which do not seem to have been thoroughly discussed until the illumination of his learning, cool judgment and perspicuous state ment have brought to bear upon them. He Is emphatically a safe man. While staunch to his party. he Is not narrow or unfair. and Is regarded by the opposite party with a respect as nearly like the veneradun with which his own party re- gards him, as the circumstance of p0lit Icat opposition admits OL He IS a 2 -nial man, warm and constant Iu his trend- ships, as witness his longtime brOtherly assoc atiOn with Senator Thurman, with whom he was inseparabie, excepting in the Senate where party lines divided them. That he Is a good mar, against whose fair name calumny would be powerless, needs not to be said. In 1880 several leading newspapers strongly urged his nomination for the Presi- dency.
 Senator Edmunds k a Nermonter by birth, having been born at Richmond, February 1898. He received a pubhc school education. read law and was ad- mitted tO the bar. At 26 years of age he WIS elected to the State Legislature, and continued tl assist m its proceedings five years, during three of which lac serv- ed as Speaker of the House.

His seat m the Unitel States Senate has been held continuously sncc lSf'6. when he received an appointment to till the vacancy created by the death ofSOlomon Foot. No public man commands greater respect than Senator Edmunds. His honors are universally felt tO be due h s superior talents, exemplary diligence and exalted character.

Human Salamanders.

It is wonderful what extremes of tenn perature human body will tolerate. There are places in Siberia where the thermometer IS often 70 degrees below zero, and for several months at time remains at 40 degrees below zero. In the bonanza mines of the COmstock, however the other extreme IS reached, for men do live and work in an atmos- phere of 110, to 120 degrees of heat. These miners are forced to drink vast amounts Of ice-water and ice; from their bodies arises a constant stream of vapOF due tO the enormous quantity of ice-water imbIbed. But m hot air baths without moisture a much higher temperature can be endured. Glass blowers and Iron smelters frequently tolerate a tempera- ture of 140 degrees, and in some Turkish Or hot air baths. heat of 2l0 degrees IS often endured for several minutes. In RussIa 1t is not uncommon for those who take the baths to plunge naked iRtO a SD w bssnk after having just left a room in which the temperature IS l5O degrees, and this c n be done without catching cold or being subject Co any subsequent inconvenience.

Many of our readers will easily call tO mind the drOll Doctor who was with Mark Twaln in the Holy Land, ard who made the droll remarks on the Egyptian mummy asking if it was dead and what he died of etc. Few know however, that the genuine Doctor referred to by Mir Clemmens Is as droll and even more so than depicted by the humOrist- Dr. A.
