he creates to give his children life. lie
sends the fresh air in from the ocean; he
sweeps it across the plains and the hills;
he fills it with freshness from the snow
clad mountains and the verdurc-clad
meadows; he bids it to find its way to our
lungs, to take the death out which every
moment we exhale, and put life in, which
he means that every moment we should In

every door and window Of our houses and
we put up double windows, and weather
strips, and build q roaring fire III the ar

Of all our efforts, some Of the life and health

An INTERRUPTED WEDDING.-A most
remarkable hitch took place at wedding
ceremony in the town OF Aastad, MINI,
which is thus described by a correspondent
of the st. Paul Pioneer Press: A large
party Of friends had assembled at the house
of one of the towns wealthy farmers to
witness the ceremony of couple about to
be married. The Lutheran minister was
TO perform the rites, and in accordance
with the rules of the church asked the
groom if he was heart-free. Yes came
the answer, when the company we're thrown
into CONSERVATION by the voice of young
lady present " lou lie, sir" cried she, in
accents not to be mistaken. The words
acted like bomb5hell thrown among the
former happy throng; and when the min
ister asked for an explanation, letters were
produced to prove that she was also en-
gagged to the Young man, and the affair
looked rather critical for the time being.
The rejected sweetheart, however, after
expostulation, consented to the ceremony
being performed if the gentleman would
apologize and ask to be forgiven, which he
humbiy did; but the minister had by this
time left in disgust, and trouble again
stared them in the face until Justice OF
the Peace was found among the invited
guests, and the fond lovers were made one
according to the laws Of Minnesota.

ARCTIC PuESoMENA-A crowd stand

torted beyond recognition. Once having
fingered little behind the rest of the par
ty was startled at seeing a long line Of
shadowy dog-sledges moving silently
through the air at height of eight or ten
feet from the ground. The mock sledges
were inverted in position, and the mock
dogs trotted along with their feet upward
in the air, but their outlines were as clear
as those Of the real sledges and real dogs
underneath. This curious phenomenon
lasted only moment, but it was succeeded
by others equally strange, until at last we

UXBURHT BRICK.-Mnch as many may
dispute the fact, il is nevertheless true that
unburnt brick form much dryer wall
than burnt brick, inasmueh as they are not
so absorbent OF wet or damp. TO make
these any ordinary clay will answer. If
dry when obtained, it must be first moist
oned and thoroughly worked by the feet of
cattle, or pounded by hand. Cut some
straw into pieces about six inches long !;
after being duly mixed with the straw the
clay Is ready to be made into bricks. A
mold of any size may be made. This mold
should have bottom, but not alright, in
order to prevent the brick from sticking in
the mold. The clay is put into this mold,
and the brick formed much in the same
way as ordinary brick. Should the clay
be very tenacious, little sand sprinkled
into the mold will enable the brick to leave
it freely. The bricks are placed on level
ground to dry, turning them on their
edges ON the second day; thereafter left in
piles, protected from the rain, for ten or
twelve days The Clay Worker.

MERcIFUL ScIENcE-Dr. B. ". Rich
ardson's process OF painless killing Of the
lower animals has been pronounced a mag
nificent success, and science has now be-
slowed upon the inferior creation bless
ing which she dare not give to man him
self-painless death. The apparatus used
is simply chamber into which is forced a
soothing but deadly atmosphere Of carbon
ic oxide which has been passed at summer
heat over mixture of ehloroform and BIZ
sulphide of carbon. Such a lethal cham
ber-capable Of containing 100 victims at
a time-has been fitted up at the Home
for Lost Dogs in London, and in it, during
a period of seven months, more than 5000
dogs have gently sunk into their eternal
sleep The process is not expensive, and
Dr. Richardson intends to apply it to the
killing of sheep and other animals that are
used for human food.
