something About Castor OIL.

The average boy has an idea that cas-
tor oil was got up for the torture of all
kids who have careful mothers to protect
them from the fell destroyer. He Is
mistaken, like a majority Of grown peo-
pie, who only regard castor oil as a med.
icine. Only a very small proportion Of
it is consumed in that manner Castor
oil forms one of the best lubricators, and
is used for greasing wagons and other
purposes where the price does not pro-
hibit it. Then it is burned as an illumi.
nator, not only by the Jews for their
Sabbath lamp, but elsewhere. In India,
where large quantities Of the seed are
raised, the oil is added u the native con
diments to flavor them. 1t is also made
into an Illuminating gas in India. In
this country castor oil is used to dress
morocco leather. California. Kansas,
Iowa and Illinois arc the principal sec.
tions Of tbs count V where the seed is
raised, and the castor oil presses at Bel
vile, Ills, are among the most extensive
in the world.-NeW York Graphic.

Attention TO Sanitation.

Within late years we have learned that
contagious diseases are vastly more
durable and less liable to spread. when
treated in shelter tents than in our homes
or hospitals; and we are more and more
caring for the ventilation Of our dwellings
and school houses and churches, prefer
ring the sunny side of our houses for
sleeping rooms.
We are building Il cities with wider
streets, and providing access to clear sum
shine and pure air in extensive parks.
We are, moreover, demanding more
scientific and faithful plumbing, and
looking ont better for the condition Of our
cellars. But we have not reached the
limit of what is possible or desirable in

WIND or THE WEST.

At last the Day Is done, =
At last the pitiless Sun,

Is drowned In q cloud deluge out Of sight,
And over the purple cloud bllows-whits
And calm rides the silver bark
OF the Evening Star-a lonely ark.
All What soft stir,
What wing like whirf
What comes from the west Ike a dove OF peace
From ark and deluge in blest releaSef
rTis thou. sweet Wind OF the Vest
Dove, with soft GOODNESS upon thy breast.
Oh, bring me a spell OF rest.
Sweet, sweet Wind Of the West!
you bring fresh balm to my window flowers,
They drink your breath as they drink the
showers;
Bring me \ message Of peace
From the land whence you come when the hot
hours cease
The Land Of the purple West
Beyond the Sierras' crest,
Where one dwells who Is dearer far
To my heart than 20 Evening her one white star.
Oh! Wind, in your wandering quest,
Have you kissed those lips that loved the besti
Have you tossed those locks | have oft careSsedf
Lost 10 me now for aye,
Only my Dreams may stray
Light as your wing, oh, Wind Of the West,
Wild as your wing in its sad unrest,
To the One | love the best.

Better Thnn They Annear.

All men are better than they appear
on the surface. The world has been too
much with them. The divine soul finds
itself choked and stiaed by the accidents
OF temperament and environment; il Is
disheartened by the multitudinous con-
tradictions in this paradoxical world; the
brain Is stupid and muddled and fails to
recognize the right; the flesh is weak;
nevertheless the divine soul dwclls latent
below the surface, and may flare out at
any moment in some sudden and UNI
looked for manner. -Lippincott's Maya
