4 DOMESTIC EPISODE.

you've ceased to love me- John, I fear,
A great change has come over you;
You do not sit beside me, dear,
And hug me as you used to dol
"You used TO praise my eyes, my hair,
And often kiss my lip and brow
When we sat on one rocking-chair
Dear John, why don't you do so nowi
"You used TO call me your delight,
Said you were proud my love to win,
And kept me at the gate at night
Till ma would come and call me in.
~You called me then your ownest own,
Your popsy pet you did, YOU know;
That happy time is past and gone
All, dearest. what has changed you sor'
John laid his paper on his knee,
And hove sigh, and said; 81 fear
Whatever changes there may be
You've brought about yourself, my dear
'This much, at least, you must confess;
Whene'er my visits would pay,
You did not meet me in the dress
In which you'd been ut work all day.
'YO our hair was not in paper curls,
Your slippers Tapping on your feet;
You were hthe prettiest of girls,
With everything about you neat.
"a snow-white collar then you'd wear,
At your throat pretty bow,
"A flower of some kind in your hair
Now, darling, what has changed you SOP

And here she stopped, nearly stran.
gled by ESsie's renewed embraces,
while she listened to the story of how
grandpapa had adopted her and how
she was surrounded by all that luxury
could devise or art invent.
"And l have longed to see you
again." added Essie, "for if it had not
been for your kindness papa never could
have lived to reach his home. And you
shall live with me always now, and be
my darling old friend.

for situation as housekeeper, and if
you won't give it to me, why l must go
elsewhere.
And Essie was obliged to consent.
"But mind" said she, nodding the
golden masses of her crepe hair, 81
shall give you what wages please!
Grandpa always intrusts those things to
my management. "
So Miss Comfort Fairhaven stayed
nominally as housekeeper-really the
trusted and revered head of the estab-
lishment, and her declining years were
surrounded by peace and luxury she
never had dared to dream of in her
loftiest aspirations.
Miss Comfort Fairhaven had invested
the five-dollar bill advantageously. She
had cast her bread upon the waters, and
after many days it had returned to her.

Melting Snow With Salt.

The Journal deS Debats publishes
statistics as to the cost of removing the
snow in Paris by the process Of melting
with salt and then sweeping it away
down the sewers. The salt posts 26s. q
ton delivered at the railway station,
whence it is distributed to the depots in
different parts of the city. In the storm
of the 10th of December last snow fell
to a depth of about three inches and a
half The expense of dealing with this
fall was $4,000; of this sum about
Fl, 100 represents the cost of the salt;
the rest is for labor and horse hire. The
salt needs to lie for about two hours be-
fore it has melted the snow sufficiently
TO enable brooms to go to work. The
system, which has been applied in Paris
since 1881, is not available for macada-
mixed roads, as the brine soaks into the
road and rots and disintegrates it.

Prospective Value of Salt Lake.

A member of the geological survey
says that Salt Lake will be of great
value in the near future, not only on
account of the common salt it will pro-
duce, but also for the sodium sulphate
it contains. The latter is separated in a
flocculent precipitate by the cold
weather of midwinter and annually
thrown up on the shore in enormous
quantities. There are many other lakes
in the far west whence an inexhaustible
supply of commercial alkalies may be
obtained at small cost, Mono Lake,
California, alone being estimated 10
hold over seventy-eight million tons Of
sodium carbonate.-M Y. Sun.

ABOUT BEAVERS.
Ingenuity Displayed in tle Construction Of
Their Dams and Houses.

Their Dams and Houses.
/ do not think, says Colonel I. W,
Higginson. the dams made by beavers
show as much ingenuity as their canals.
1t is much easier and safer for them to
carry their food and building material
by water than land. So sometimes
they cut a canal across the bend of a
stream to shorten the distance, Some
times, again, it is cut through the mud,
until they reach firm ground for their
burrows. These canals are usually
about three feet wide and three feet
deep, and they are sometimes five hun,
bred feet long. Any engineer will tell
you that it needs good deal of skill
and ingenuity to decide where to lay
out such a canal as that, and then to cut
it regularly, 50 that the water shall flow
smoothly through. And the most re-
markable thing of all is that they know
how to combine the principles of the
canal and the dam, so that when they
come to an obstruction, such as rock
in the bed of their stream, they i'm
mediately make a dam to secure the
necessary flow of water. Successive
generations evidently work for many
years upon these canals, and | can
hardly think of any thing else done by
an animal that shows so much con-
I trivance.
The home or lodge is always sep
arate from the dam. Sometime a cord
of wood is used in building one house.
There is an entrance under water like
that of the musquash, and some
times two. These % openings are
very neatly made. The beavers drag
their branches and pieces of bark into
the water, and then take them into
the dining-room by the hidden en-
trance. Indeed l believe the house is
all dining room, but it is always very
neatly swept. There are not often
more than eight or ten beavers, old and
young, in a single house. Besides the
houses they like to have burrows in the
banks, and spend part of their time in
each. The young beavers live at home
for almost two years before they go tc
housekeeping for themselves. They
are queer little things, and their cry is
like that of a young child Mr. Nor
gan once saw a beaver in an Indian
house and it was tapping milk out of &
saucer like a kitten, and an Indian
baby was pulling its fur. Then there
was little cry, and Mr.. Morgan
thought it was the Indian baby until he
found it was the baby beaver.
1t has always been an interesting
question for naturalists how the beaver
learns to build. Does he learn it by OBJ
serving his parents, or would be know
how to do it if he were brought W
alone? Button, a great naturalist
thought that it was all learned by OBJ
servation. So Cunir, another grea
naturalist, took a very young beaver
and brought him up by hand, apar
from all his kind. They gave hin
branches of willow; he cut the branche
and piled them in one corner of hi
cage. Then they gave him earth, whicl
he made into Jumps with his fore fee
and piled them with the branches into
solid mass. This shows it was instinc
that taught the beaver to build

A STARTLING FACT.

II Is not commonly known that q large
proportion of the rheumatism and neu-
ralgia extant is traceable directly to tha
diseased condition or imperfect action of
the kidneys and liver; therefore remedy
which cures the resulting disease must
have found and smitten the first cause.
Many persons using Athlophoros for
rheumatism and neuralgia have besn
surprised to find that chronic disorders Of
the liver and kidneys have also bean
greatly relieved and they have written
for an explanation. The fact is, that the
remedy acts directly on these organs.

stances and regulating their action. Takes
