his bread and milk in another life. If
hungry dog carries off bone, he is
killed and one of his own bones put in
the grave.
The master of the house always does
the cooking. Women are not allowed to
make messes for the men. The Lap
landers make little toys for sale, also
boxes and baskets, snuff boxes. spoons
OF horn, shoes, CATERS and gloves. The
women make pewter wire, and adorn
with it the reindeer harness. Ropes are
made of tree-roots, and bows of fir and
birch, glued together with glue made
from fish-skins. This glue is so strong
that pieces of wood joined by it never
separate.
When the Laplander dies, he is buried
in an old sledge. He generally lives to
a good old age, and his only malady,
usually, is blindness. This is occasioned
by the dazzling snow outside and the
smoky air within.

THE ARCH FIEND.

Men don't believe in the devil now, as their
fathers used to do;
They've forced the door of the broiCest creed to
let his majesty through,
There isn't print OF his cloven foot, or 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 ism and never was Won't some
body rise and tell
Who dogs the steps of the toilng 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 4?
We are toll he does net 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 remotest bouno,
If the devil by unanimous vote is nowhre to be
found .?
Won't somebody step to he front forthwith and
and make their bow and show
How the frauds and the crimes of 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 to 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 half feet in diameter,
containing $50 feet of half.inch pipe.
The boiler is kept filed 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 5000
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 and 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
$1,000 feet of absorbing pipe, and, being
is met by water forced into the pipes,
and thus converted back into the acqua
ammonia, which goes into a 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 q
we'll rs feet deep on the premises, and
the large blocks of ice (which are loos-
ened from the pipes by q 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 q 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-6ve tons per day,
but twenty tons keep pace with the de-
msnd, and it isn't stored, but cut every
day as it is delivered, and sells at from
$40 to $12 per ton. As we picked our
way among the cleaning and uneven
pillars, with the water drip ping and
splashing down upon us. and the only
light coming in through The smallest Of
windows at the top, it seemed as il 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 Hart
ford Times.

Extravagance or Napoleon Ill.

The great Napoleon assumed state and
encouraged luxury from calculation; his
nephew both from policy and taste.
Napoleon III was fond OF pomp and
show, beside being confirmed sensual
list; and derived . personal enjoyment
from his entertainments. They were on
q most magnificent scale, but the only
marked or lasting influence of the i'm
perial court as regards fashion or man.
ners, was on female dress. The invita-
tons to Compiegne and Fontainebleau
were commonly for eight days; and a
lady was expected to change her dress
three or four times day. and never to
wear the same dress twice. The outfit
for the visit was computed at not less
than 10000 francs. We have heard q
Frenchwoman Of the imperial court cir
Gle com plain that she could not dress for
less than one thousand pounds . year.
A milliner's bill on which an action
was brought, amounted to fifteen thou
sand pounds for three years, and the fair
defendant paid twelve thousand into
court. The spirit of French extrava-
gance proved catching, and extended "a
England, where traces Of it are still dis
cernible.

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 q certain amount of grass, hay and
grain that his farm produces? That in
stead Of selling the raw commodities, he
Gun by putting them into these articles,
90 much better returns for his products?
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 he raises has
TO go to some market. By condensing
it, little freight will have to be paid, and
thus 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 we'll, and bring prices that will
pay well for the skill. labor and capital
employed in producing them.

Neuralgia, Sprains,

Pain in the Back and Side. There is nothing more painful than these diseases; but the pain can be removed and the disease cured by use of Perry Davis Pain Killer.
 This remedy is not n cheap Benzsne or Petroleum product that must be kept away from fire or heat to avoid danger of explosion, nor Is it an untried experi- Mhcnt that may do more harm than good. Pain Killer has been in constant use for forty years, and the universal testimony from all parts of the world is 1t never fails. It not only effects permanent cure, but 1t relieves pain almost instantaneously. Being purely vegetable remedy, it is safe h the hands of the most inexperienced The record of cures by the use Of PAIN KILLER would fill volumes The following extracts from letters received show what those who have tried it think: Edgar Cady, owatonna, Minn., says:
