Ths Manufacture of Veneering.

"The demand for fine woods" said
the New York furniture man, sis in
creasing every year. The finest and
costliest Is French walnut which, by
the way, is not French at all, but is
product of Oriental countries. 1t grows
in Persia, Circassia and Asia Minor.
You have seen it in veneering upon
costly furniture, but you probably have
no notion how expensive 1t Is. nor how
careful we are to prevent waste in its
use. Come into our work-rooms and
1 will let you see it in process of cut
ting"
He led the way into some extensive
rooms. where ponderous machinery was

In one room steam rose from. cracks in

BILE logs and subject them to the action
of steam until they become almost as
soft as butter. Then we take them out,
fasten them to an iron beam (here no

this beam revolves around Il finely
tempered knife, of the same length as
the log"
With, each revolution a strip of wood
was shaved off smoothly and laid in
piles upon the floor like skins of leath-
re or sheets of paper.
Every time this beam turns around
it moves fraction of an inch nearer to
the knife. The whole apparatus works
with extreme precision. No printing
press or weaving machine is made with
greater nicely. The knife that shaves
off the sheets of wood is rigidly immov
able, and ground to razor-edge. The
heavy beam that revolves with its great
load of timber is firmness itself and is
regulated like clockwork The slightest
tremor in the beam or knife would
break and twist the thin sheets that you
see turned off here with the regularity
and perfection of newspapers turned
out by the printing press. These sheets
are about 1-120 of an inch in thick
ness, but frequently we shave off veneers

He lifted a corner of one of the long
sheets, and it seemed to be about tho
thickness of ordinary writing paper.
The wood was warm and pliable.
at is only in this condition that this
shaving process is possible. When
fresh from the steam pit the knife slips
easily through it. Were the wood cold
and hard the process would be impossi-

To a Waterfowl,


Whittier, midst falling dew,
While glow the heavens with the last steps o
day,
Far, through their rosy depths, dost thou pun
sue
Thy solitary way?
Vainy the fowler's eye
Might mark thy distant light to do wrong,
As, darkly painted on the crimson sky,
Thy figure floats along.
Scck'st thou the piashy brink
OF wcedy lake. or margc Of river wide,
Or where the rocking pillows rise and sink
On the chafcd ocean side?
There is d Power whose care
Teaches thy way along that pathless coast
The desert and ilimitable air
Lone wandering but not lost.
All day the wings have famed
At that far height, the cold, thin atmosphere,
Yet stoop not, weary, to the welcome land,
Though the dark night is near.
And soon that foil shall end;
Soon shalt thou find summer home, and rest
And scream among thy fellows; reeds shal
bend
Soon. DER thy sheltered nest
Thou's gone, the abyss of Heaven
Hath swallowed up thy form; yet, on my
Deeply hath sunk the lesson thou hast given,
And shall not soon depart.
He who, from zone to zone,
Guides through the bOundlesS sky thy certain
flight,
III the long way that must tread alone,
viii lead my steps Alright.

Modern Nova1s.

The recent school of American novel
lists, represented mainly by Howells and
James, is endeavoring to work reform
in fiction. Instead of in Dickens or
Thackcray manner of finishing a story,
Mr.. Howells especially, amuses himself
by chopping it off, leaving the reader to
draw his own conclusions. This is GER
tainly very accommodating, but it is not
art. Every piece of literary work
should have q decided ending where all
of the wrinkles are smoothed out. when
the reader is allowed to sit down and
rest. If this style prevails among the
younger writers, as Mr.. Howells no
doubt desires it should, the future novel
will end very much in this way:
walking rapidly through the fields,
Arthur Sought his old home. The tall
clover stood in perfumed tremor, and
the bees buzzed in insectiferous chorous.
The young man thought as he passed,
of his long engagement with Miss Bikle
and wondered if she were still living
with his aunt. He longed to meet her
and to know that she still loved him.
He climbed the field fence, entered the
lane leading to the house and walked
along, rejecting deeply. He neared
the house. A white dress fiuttered at
the gate. He rushed forward. The
end"
Now what sort of an ending would
that bep The reader would never know
whether it was Miss Bikes or some 9TH
er woman's dress that was fluttering at
the gate. No matter how much the ro-
mantle young girl might be interested
in the marriage of Arthur and Miss BIZ
kle, she would never know whether or
not the ceremony was performed.
1t is the duty of every story teller to
settle up with his characters before clos
ing his book. It would not be a bad
idea for a novelist to have literary
balance sheet, and settle with each char
acter the first of every month. This
would keep everything straight and pre-
vent anything like confusion.
Howells' Modern Instance looks as
though it were taken by instantaneous
photography and 'tired off, before the
rear end of the procession attained good
position. IrGUeler.

"Cremated'' is becoming a favorite
word with reporters in describing fires
where there is loss of life; but it is
not an accurate use of the word. In
the improved furnaces now used in ere
matories there is no contact of flesh with
fires. The heat is 1000 degrees or more.
At this temperature the body simply
withers away to pure white ash. The
gases generated are burned in a separ-
ate chamber, and there is absolutely no
smoke, odor or other unpleasant attrlb-
ute to offend sensibiliUies. The FUR
naces cost from s., 900 to 1000.

When Lieutenant Schwatka started
on his arctic expedition he took lot of

An OhSerying Bow,

A father was advising his very small
son, not long ago, against the sin of
seifishness, that he must never hesitate
to grant favors and be generally oblig-
ing wherever he could. The boy listen
ed, then said: '1 would like to do
everything you tell me, father, but
there's fellow at school just like what
you've described; everybody says he's
an obliging fellow, but nobody, not even
the teacher, treats him as if he was any
account. Now, don't want people to
take me for no-account fellowr That
boy had him upon conundrum that
puzzles many an old philosopher
through life.-BoSton Transcript.

LITTLE Boy CRUSHED To EATH.-The
San Andreas Prospect of December 7th
says:
A sad and frightful accident occurred
near Dog Town last Sunday, resulting in
the death of little son of Bob Douglas.
The manner of the accident as reported is
as follows Mr.. Douglas had saddled his
horse for the purpose of riding to town,
when the child came to him begging
for ride. The father picked up the
child and put him on the saddle, telling
him to ride around to the house. For
some reason the animal became suddenly
restless, reared up, and fell backwards upon
the child. The father ran to the rescue
but to pick up his dying boy. who, pointing
to his breast, said he was hurt fright
there, and before medical assistance could
be procured, he expired The little fellow
was years of age. Upon examination it
was found that the pommel of the saddle
had dealt him terrible blow on the breast

before going into the seLnce Mrs. Reynolds took
two pillow cases from pillows the bed and during
the seance rubbed matches on them TO produce the

which the pillow. cases were trimmed while Mrs
Reynolds was flashing them around the room, aud
Mrs Reynolds afterwards acknowledged having
taken them from the bed. Soon after this Mrs
Reynolds held materializing at Mrs. Captain
Gums, on Elizabeth street, Oakland. Some OF the

clothing taken of. Mr.. Gruff " would not allow
it then, but promised that it might be done at the

THE UhINDLE-HE1NULDS MEDITM,
Who is now to be tried for swindline G. b. Melitz
on the Sth OF August last at materalizing seance
when he grasped spirit and got licking for his
pains. The San Francisco expose of this woman
shows that she came originally from Oregon. Her
maiden name was Eliza Dunbar When is or 90 she
married Clark P. Craudall. They soon separated
and she came ten years ago to Francisco, calling
herself Elsie Crindle instead of Eliza Cranda. She
was some time after married to a Mr. Reynolds
She was professed medium in Oregon but her rep
utation for truth and honesty was not immaculate
as related to her manifestations. 7. W. Davenport,
Of SilvertOn Or, so writes of her. He is a Spirit
unlist, and hardly willing to believe all her manifest
ations were fraud but does believe some were.
