JACK-O'-lANTERN.

Ny Jack lantern, 50 yellow and round,
What in the world are you thinking abouts
Do you wish you were back again on the grounds
Did It hurt you much when scooped you outs
Your eyes are so staring-I wish they'd wink!
And your nose is crooked-it makes mine ache;
But your teeth are perfect really think
They are Just as good as the dentists make.
You look up at me with your silly smile
As II you were terribly proud and vain,
But guess I'd look foolish too, all the while
With only candle instead Of brain!

A smooth wooden core, Of the shape OF the
pipe to be made, is then bedded in the cement,
and covered with it TO u proper thickness.
Earth is then carefully thrown over the
cement and gently stamped, so that the
cement Is not disturbed The core is then
slowly twisted around, drawn forward few
inches over new bed of cement, and is again
covered with cement and earth, and so the
work goes on until all is finished; water is
then turned in, and if all is found right, the
ditch is filled up. and thus the job is COM
pleted. This is the cheapest and most durable
pipe that can I've made.
The wooden core which is drawn along

Writing for the r,aEa...

Writers are much better paid than they
used to be-the rate varying from $40
to S25, sometimes $50, per 1000 words;
the highest figures being those of the
two monthlies. But even these scarcely
allure u writer, who must depend on
other work TO earn a livelihood. Con
tributing TO magazines is a narrow field
at best, and he who is industrious will be
likely 10 fill his position for a year in a
month. The man or woman who shall
produce ten or twelve articles year,
and get them published, would seem to
get eternally in print, and would suffer
in consequence from a reputation for
nimiety. Writing for the magazines is
sometimes spoken of as a trade, it may
be a profession; it can hardly be prac.
tice. One might as well talk OF picking
up gold eagles for a living. The majority
of persons have never picked up a single
eagle, and never will. To the majority
of writer's Do not write for magazine
if you wish to avoid losing money. never
publish a magazine; if you care TO make
money, never write for one.-Junius
Hslri Browne in Chicago Tribune.

go outside. Tint is doubtful, as the ves-
