faded woman with streaks Of gray
Her scanty brown locks threading,
In sorrow and loneliness took the way
Which many feet were treading.
To honor the brave aud noble dead
With chaplet and wreath and emblem,
With roses, and daisies, and Violets fair,
And lily-bells nodding and trembling.
In a narrow grave, a flag at his head
Meath simple stone she found him,
No hOnOrs, no fame, no riches were there,
No tokens Of rank around him.
No, none of the gifts she had asked that morn
OF the treacherous four-leayed clover
Had come to the man who lay at her feet
? Her youthful and beautiful lover.
4
No cross, no crown, no wreath Of bav,
Did she place on the grave Of her lover,
But tie6 with ribbon of blue and gray
A bunch of four-leayed clover.

Deep ir the grass maiden knelt,
Turning the green blades over, ...
With futtering heart and anxious eye,
Hunting a four-leaved clover ~.
No treasure rare of jewel or gem
Seemed half so fair to her vision
As that slender wand Of palest green,
Prophetic of lands elysian.
With joyful cry she held the prize,
ooh darling four leaved clover
Witt bring my lover back to me,
When this cruel war is overH
eWilt thou give him a sword, and shoulder
straps
Honor, and fame, oh, clover,
Give riches, and health, and bring him back
When this cruel war is over

The general level west of the Blue Ridge
Mountains is about 1000 feet above tide
water. Mountains are interspersed freely
and attain great altitude, reaching in many
instances 1000 feet. The soil is of clayey
nature and very productive. All the grains
yield well, and for grass no country excels
it. As n natural fruit section it is ono of
the very best in the United States. The
roads for eight months of the year are hard
and smooth, and for mountain country
IRE admirable, Nearly everybody rides OF
horseback end there is hardly cabin with
put side saddle. The people are the most
friendly, frank and hospitahle have ever
met in my travels through the States. The
price of living, outside of Ashevillo and
other large towns. is merely nominal in cost.
Tourists make great mistakes ia going to
expensive hotels instead of seeking the farm
houses of the country where the cost is not
one-fourth as much, and the fare is substan-
tial, and in the country horses may be hired
for fifty cents per day for excursions. !

BIRD FARMING.
Hhtching Chickens by steam and
Raising Them without n Notg,er.

matching Chickens by Steam and
Raising Them without a Mother.
A short distance out of Savannah lives
Joseph, Ezra and George Cole. They are
the largest poulty raisers in the State. On
one acre around their house more chickens
and ducks are raised in the course of a veal
than are, perhaps, raised on any ten other
acres in Georgia. At any time during the
day flock of seventy-fvc full-grown white
Pekin ducks will be seen pudding, diving
and swimming in the pond in front of the
house. A little way off the ducks can
scarcely be told from geese, so closely dc
they resemble each other The father on
either of the sons will show the visitor any
where from 600 to 1000 little ducks, and
1000 to 5000 chiclSens-and there is not a
hen on the place, nor have they set an old
duck for months.
Inside small, warm room in the hatch.
cry are four yellow boxes that look like so
many chests. They are all setting up four
feet from the floor. There are glass win
dows in the front of the boxes, and through
the glass are to be seen more eggs than
cubators, and practically are an improve
ment on the old hen. Each incubator will
hold 450 duck eggs, or from 600 to 700
chicken eggs. 1t takes an incubator just as
long to hatch setting of eggs as it takes a
hen-twenty-one days for chickens and
twentyeight days for ducks. From 600
fertile chicken eggs 4s0 to $40 young chicks
are Matched on an average.
The ineubators are kept Mt los degrees
and. are heated by kerosene lamps at the
end. A tank holding twenty gallons of
water is placed over the eggs. The lamp
On the outside of the incubator heats a small
boiler of water, and water from the boiler
eirculatcs through coil of pipe under and
over the eggs.
The little chicks and ducks are kept il
she incnbators twenty-four hours after
Matching. Then they are removed to the
:" brooder, small pen heated by lamp
on the under side. In the middle of the
pen is a table eight inches high The edges
of this are fringed with woolen cloth, which
hangs down TO within half an inch of the
floor. The cloth is slashed up every few
inches to allow the chickens to go under
freely, and they huddle under it as though
it was mother hen.
The ducks arc the worst of gourm .nds,
and run TO the little shallow troughs every
time any one opens the door They are
we'll fed at first ON mixture of boiled eggs
and mead, and afterward on the best material
in the poultry food line. Ducks are ten
and twelve weeks growing to marketable
size, and chickens grow into broilers in
about the same length of time. Broilers
weigh from one and three-quartcrs to two
and half pounds, and bring in market
from seventy i've cents to 81 pair, ae
1t is possible with the ineubators to have
spring chickens all the year round. A Pekin
duck at the age of ten weeks pulls down
the scales at the five pound mark. From
the time the chickens are two weeks old
they spend the rest of their brief existence
out of the doors in pens eight feet wide ard
thirty feet long.

Chinese shovel Makers.

You may say" said leading Front
street merchant, i" that the American hard
ware trade is fourishing like green bay
tree. The value of what is strictly known
as hardware in this country last year
amounted to nearly $60,000,000, of which
nearly half was made in Connecticut. If
you include small firearms, agricultural i'm
elements, cut nails and ornamental iron
work, which I consider hardware, though
many do not, the total value of the Ameri-
IAN production will rench 800, 900, 900.
English, French and German manufacturers
send usabout so, 900, 900 of hardware yearly.
We have, however, lost one source of rcve-
nue., and it makes funny story. The
Chinese have got ahead of us. Up to last
year we had monopoly of supplying the
Chinese with iron shovels. Owing to our
facilities for transportation, we could under.
sell our English brethren. Now the Chi
nese are making their own shovels and un-
derselling us. The manufacture is carried
ON at place called Chefoo. near Shanghai,
and hundreds of men and boys are engaged
in the busine,s. What do you think the
Chinese make the shovels from Old boiler
tubes, immense piles of which are to be
seen in the Chinese back courts. The old
snbes are cut into short cylinders just the
length Of the shovel, ripped open, heated,
aattened out and hammered into Shape.
The shoyels are taken into the interior Of
the country on the backs Of mules, and our
adyices state that nearly every Chinese cot
tager within radius of from two to three
hundred miles around Shanghai is supplied
with one. The Chinese makers sell their
shovels at from 25 to 40 cents each, accord
ing to size and quality. However, the sup
ply of old boiler tubes may become ex.
hausted, and then we Yankees will have q
clear corner on the Celestial shovel makers

Here and There.
We sit beside the lower feast to-day,
She at the higher;
Our voices falter as we bend TO pray;
In the great choir
OF happy saints she sings and does not tire.
We break the bread OF patience, ana the wine
OF tears we share;
She tastes the vintage Ct that glorious vine
Whose branches fair
Set for the healing OF all nations are.
{ wonder is she sorry for our pain,

She wondering signs, and counts them idle, valr
Those heavy signs,

The eyes are always in sympathy with

of its condition When the,eyes become
weak, and the lids inaamed and sore, it
is ain evidence that the system has
become disordered by Scrofula, for
which Ayers Sarsaparilla is the best
known remedy.
Scrofula, which produced painful in
