copal. 1t seemed as though in it the
perfection of clarity had been reached
but the superintendent assured US Of the
existence of finer grade, though he ad-
mitted that in his twenty years of expert
ence in ''turpentining" he had never
seen it.
In this still the product of thirteen
barrels of turpentne is two barrels of
spirits of turpentine, eight of resin, and
enough resin chips to feed the furnace.
AS four charges can be drawn during
the day, each days product of still
average capacity is eight barrels of spirits
and thirty two of resin.
Tar is produced by the SLOW combus-
ton of light wood OF very resinous pine
in a kiln, and pitch by the melting of
inferior grades of resin.-Harper's.

JUST THE TINE TO BE PLEASANT

Mothers cross said Maggie, coming
into the kitchen with pout Oh her lips.
Her aunt was busy ironing, but she
looked up and answered Maggie:
Then it is the very time for you to be
pleasant and helpful. Mother was awake
great deal in the night with the poor
baby
Maggie made no reply. She put on
her hat and walked off into the garden.
But new idea went with her.
THE very time to be helpful and pleas
ant is when other people are cross. Sure
enough" thought she, THAT would be
the time when it would do the most
good"
81 remember when | was sick last year
| was SO nervous that if any one spoke to
me, l could hardly help being cross; and
mother never got angry nor ont of pa
tience, but was just as gentle with me.
| ought to pay it back now, and | will
And she sprang up from the grass
where she had thrown herself and turned
face full of cheerful resolution toward
the room where her mother sat soothing
ard tending u fretful, teethins baby.
Maggie brought the pretty ivory balls,
and began to jingle them for the little
one.
He stopped fretting, and smile dim
Piled the corners of his lips.
Couldn't take him out in his car
| riage mother It's such nice morning"
she asked.
Il should be glad if you would" said
her mother?
The hat and sacque were brought and
| the baby was soon ready for his ride.
iii keep him out as long as he is
goou," said Maggie, land you must lie
on the sofa and get nap while | am
| gone. You ale looking dreadfnlly tired. -
The kind words and the kiss that ac-
| companied them were almost too much
for the mother.
The tears lose to her eyes. aud her
voice trembled, as she answered.:
| nahR you, uedfie' IL Will no He d
| world Of good il You can keep him out
an hour; and the air will do hun good,
too. My head aches badly this morning.
What a happy heart beat in Maggie's
| bosom as she ii un9led the little carriage
up and dow ON the walk.
She had done real good. She had
given back little of the help and for
bearance that had SO often been bestowed
upon her. She had made her mother
happier, and llven her lime to rest.
She resol> cd Ia remember and act upon
her aunt's go I'd word: The very time to
be helpful and pleasant Is when every
body is tired and cross

1t would be something to hear the dog
show, even if one cGGld not see 1t. May
be this fact accounts Tor the presence OF
small boys in considerable numbers out
side the Garden walls. The voices of the
dogs are OF all kinds, from roar to
squeak. The resultant diScord tells of
woe. Dogs that bark right merrily when
at home howl dismal.y at the bench show.
Pets that yelp spiteiully at other times
whine piteously whenever their voice is
heard in the Garden. 1t is noteworthy
and it is due to the dogs that it be
printed-that the old prize-winners do
not contribute to the uproar. n ulther
exception should be made in favor of the
collies. Il haven't heard even one of
the collies open his mouth, said gen
tleman who had been present during
nearly all Of the show.
