OF the beautiful gems Of poetic
thought which have been contributed
BY the South to the literature Of our
common country there are none TO be
found perhaps more exquisite than the
two following little poems from the
pm Of the gifted Albert Pike, which l
trust you will see fit to embalm in the
columns of your Sunday COMMERCIAL
HERALD. Poe, in the exhuberance Of
his matchless imagery, never wrote
anything more tender and beautiful
than "The Old Canoe" which at once
stamps its author as a poet Of the
highest order ; and yet your readers
will find it difficult to say whether
that or "After the Midnight Cometh
Morn" is the superior. But let them
be the judges. Here are the poems.
HERMES.

The field of applied electricity is yet in its
infancy. What even a few years will bring
forth in this direction is beyond magma
ton. Two remarkable new uses of the mys-
terious fluid which can both kill and cure
are chronicled. The first, strange to say,
comes from a literary man, Mr.. Henry Guy
Carleton. If he were a poor quality Of
literary man his genius in the inventive
field might be better understood. But he is
not, He is first class, and his mechanical
device is as good as his writing. 1t is an
electrical balance for indicating fredamp
in mines. 1t is quite possible that Mr..
Carleton's name may be written in history
as one Of the ~benefactors Of mankind, las
one who loves his fellow man"
The second invention has been patented
by Mr.. Gilliland, a friend of Thomas Edison,
although the idea was first reduced to prac-
lice by Wiley Smith, manager of the
western branch Of the Bell Telephone com
pany.
The plan Of il viii be understood by re-
Numbering that lightning jumps through
the air from a cloud to strike a tree or
pointed rod upon a house. The device
patented by Mr.. Gilliland is one for tele-
graphing from a train in motion. A battery
IS on the train, with an operator and an
ordinary Morse key. The tin roofs Of the
cars are connected by copper wires. The
roofs and wires together serve to condense

At the bottom the buttons are stopped By
a grated crossbar, B. The cards to receive
the buttons are fixed to hooks upon leather
betting and move over pulleys toward the
buttons. The buttons must be those with q
metal shank, like shoe buttons.
Our readers have probably amused them
selves by putting iron sand or iron filings
upon a sheet OF paper, then passing a magnet
under the paper back and forth and seeing
the filings range themselves in line and fol-
low it over the paper. This is the principle
on which the carding machine works.
The buttons drop out Of the groove upon
the card board. Beneath it is an electro
magnet, shown at E. The pole Of it, M, is
shaped like a comb, with teeth. The teeth
come directly under each button groove. At
the moment the buttons drop the teeth Of
the magnet beneath the card attract the
iron shank Of each one and fix it in its
proper place. At the same instant tho cross
bar C descends upon the buttons and presses
the loop through the card. The crossbar {
is moved by a strong spiral spring which i
acted on by the eccentric.
The electric current is then broken anC
the leather belt advances for the next row
The motion of the belts is broken by
ratchet. When a card is filed the bel
nov it on under the grooved hoppe
and carries it off.
The machine is moved through power ap
l1ted at the grooved pulley shown at the lef
OF the table. The necessity Of accuracy i,
timing the nice movements makes thi
machine of remarkable delicacy.

nracnetized Corset steeIs.

A young woman of Columbus, Ga, about
to visit the generating station Of the electric
light company, was told to leave her watch
at home. lest it be magnetized by the strong
electric current She did SO, but complained
afterward that her watch would not keep
good time. She sent it to a jeweler. but he
reported that it was not magnetized and
kept good time. Still, whenever she carried
it her time was too slow, although when she
left it in her room it ran correctly. A gem
tleman who knew of the circumstance sug-
gested to the young lady that she wear
another pair of corsets when next she car
ried the watch. She did so, and had no
further trouble with the watch. The steel
springs in her corset had been magnetized

BALD Hendednea..

There is much wearisome and needless
discussion about baldheaded American men.
Wash your head thoroughly once a week
with a lather of soap and water, rinse all
the soap out, and rub the scalp lively till it
is dry. Never wear an unventilated hat, or
any hat at all when you can avoid it. Wear
a straw hat instead of felt whenever posi-
BILE. Give your scalp sunlight and air.
Don't smoke too much. Follow these direc-
lions and you will never be baldheaded
Even if your hair has begun to get thin, it
will revive. Canadians are bald because they
wear fur caps 1t is the wearing of hot and
unnatural head coverings that makes the hair
fall out. If a quite bald man should go bare
headed in the sun and air a year, it is likely
that his hair would come in again, and he
would never take cold. Remember this
Nature meant your hair to keep your head
warm, not fur caps or felt hats. Felt hats
and silk hats are an a~bomination- These
are the wretches that make American men
baldheaded. 1t is not their mighty intellects
or their excessively fine nervous systems.
If you render the hair superauous by max
ing hats do its duty for it, nature takes il
away. She will not tolerate useless things

Mr.. MoRRIsoN's new tariff bill is a
much less radical measure than that
recommended by the Hayes-OliVer
Commission three years ago, but it
promises some relief to oppressed
Industries and burdened taxpayers. 1t
will not meet the approval of Profess
sor Thompson, Of the University of
Pennsylvania, because it removes the
taxes from a number of raw materials
instead Of increasing them. The same
objection was raised against the Hayes
Oliver Commission. The Morrison
bill does not put so many articles on
the free list as the Hayes-Oliver bill
did but it puts in more i'm
portant %ones-such, for instance, as
salt, timber, and iron, copper and
lead ores. The other changes in the
bill do not make an average reduction
equal to that proposed by the Hayes
Oliver Commission which recommend
ed knocking off 20 to 25 per cent, but
Mr.. Morrison's are very carefully made
with a view to relieving maDufactur-
ing industry Of its more manifest bur
dens. 1t is an extremely conservative
measure, the most radical feature be-
ing the reduction of Is per cent. on
sugar and molasses. This is a feature
which cannot be altogether commend
ed, since it cuts $40 100000 out of the
revenue at once, and at a time when
expenditures, especially for pensions,
are on the increase. The margin be-
tween revenue and expenditure is now
very narrow, and it happens at a time
when the House of Representatives are
bully ing the Secretary Of the Treasury
in reference to what they call the sur
plus, pressing him to pour it out as
fast as possible. Nevertheless the re-
duction Of the sugar duties will be a
popular measure, and it is quite con-
ceivable that this may be the only part
of the bill of any Importance that will
run the gauntlet of both branches Of
Congress.-N. Y. Post.

SOME people think it a very simple
thing to put Geographic and telephone
wires under ground. The theorists
would do well to come to thecorner of
Fourth and Race streets and take a
look at the wires, and determine the
amount of excavation to find room for
them under the pavement. The posi-.
bility of disposing Of the wires under
ground has not been reached in our
system of paving. In Paris, the wires
are carried through under ground

The successful one is that shown in the
picture. The part which gave the artist
most trouble and thought was the top Of the
tower. The structure was to be in the
midst Of a group Of trees ~forty-eight feet
high. Above these its top must show of
handsomely. About the only other require
ments in the design were that it should be
reached by an easy flight Of steps, and that
it should not cost over $1,000. 1t is to be
remembered that So 600 goes considerably
further in Europe thar in America The
tower is altogether picturesque.
