THE SEASONS.

THE SEASONS.
ny C. A. CARPENTER.
Spring is maiden divinely fair,
With violets blue in her golden hair.
At the balmly touch of her dainty feet
The primrose pale and cowslip sweet
Burst forth from their wintry winding sheet:
And the forest leaves peep out to see
Who this beautiful, beautiful maid can be.
Summers a warrior flushed with fame.
He rides o'cr Garth in his car OF fame;
His whip is the whirlwinds circling lash.
His shout is the deafening thunder's crash,
His spear is the lightning's binding flash.
He breathes, and the hills are parched and dry
Aud the rivulets, fading in vapors fly.
Autumn's a merchant of princely mein,
The earth's best fruits at his feet are seen.
His wondrous stores of golden grain
Are garnered high on the sunlit plain,
And flow like seas DER his rich domain,
And his nut-brown children shout with glee
As they gather his treasures around his knee.
Winters monster offiendish guise,
With famine and woe in his baleful eyes.
He blights the air with his icy breath.
He seeargesthe life from the lapd beneath;
The water he binds in the chains of death,
And he laughs to hear the plaintive wall
0fthe famishing poor in the frozen vale

The fact that the rigor morris made
the feet of dead persons 80 unwieldly as
to necessitate foot gear several sizes
too large had for long time painfully
impressed Joliet dressmaker, Miss

As. Of course the invention was prompt
ly patented, and in the course of time a
company wac incorporated which sup
plies two-thirds of all the manufacturers
of and jobbers in funeral supplies
throughout the United States, and sends
the product of the Joliet drcssmaker's
inventive genius even across the ocean.
The invention is, like many others, so
simple that the wonder is why burial
shoes have not been made before there
were patent offices. The shoe consists
of knitted pieces of wool or silk, which
are inserted at the heels and at the in
steps, making it possible to cover the
rigid understanding" of dead persons
not only with snug fit but in becoming
style. In a block on Dearborn street a
dozen or fifteen girls are at work from
morning until night of each working day
to manufacture nothing but burial shoes
of all sizes-from those for tiny babies to
the ones for the oldest inhabtant.
They are made in four colors-white,
cream-colored, brown and black
and three grades-brocaded satin,
quilted satin and felt Of the Ia ter,
which is the cheapest grade, but three
of the colors arc being manufactured,
the natural felt being sort of cross be-
tween white and cream color The brown
color is principally demanded for the
funeral of Catholics, and white and
cream colored for babies and women.
Material, as well as ornamontation, are
of such a variety and style as-to use a
business mans phrase-to suit the most
fastidious The firm turns out from fifty
to hundred pairs . day, and they are
all taken rapidly, because burial shoes
have, since the last year or two, become
a necessary part Of the outfit of the dead.

the ice-which melts so soon these hot
days that it is not what it's cracked up to
be''-made discovery which would
have set the New York papers, fresh in
their attacks on the bacteria in the
Hudson River, agog with excitment and
indignation. 1t was not a homeless
little bacterium, invisible to the naked
eye and demanding u microscopic in
vestigatiou to tell whatit was. 1t was q
live, wriggly, squirmy earthworn, four
inches in length, in full possession OF
his powers of wriggling, and in fact
seeming not a little refreshed by his re-
sidence in his crystal citadel. Il was a
cool retreat and showed a discriminate
ing taste in the worm, if, indeed, he goi
into such a crystal palace by his own
voition. 1t was probably thrust upon
him, "cold wave sweeping down the
Hudson and embedding him, like a pre-

the icemen, cleaning the frozen fields,
brought him to the warm South. When

The wheat crop of Minnesota and Da-
kota this year will, the St. Paul Pioneer
Press estimates, aggregate the immense
quantity of 100, 900, 600 bushels. Allow
ing an average of 400 bushels to the car,
this will represent no less than $50, 900

traffic to handle within the next few
