ECONOMY of time is necessary to
the performance of serious work.
Many persons are perpetualIy busy, who
are, as 10 all practical results, as idle as
the most iEdolent man, who consumes
his life between his bed and his table, or
as the mere idiot who squanders his
time in trifiing and listlessness. Mere
bodily feeling, unaided and undirected
by spark of reason, would prevent any
one from actually sleeping or remaining
inactive, during the whole or any con
siderable portion of his time. Activity
is natural to the human flame the
is perpetually in motion. But,
to employ time wisely, is the point at
which we must aim. We may be ex-
ceeoingly busy, and TO all intents eDd
purposes idle as regards our usefulness
to our families or employers. To de-
sire 70 be industrious, is the first re.
Quisite towards being so and the next.
and no less important, is method. No
hurry no agitation, no hesitation, should
be experienced by those who value the
advantages Of employing time judici-
ousiy.

Feeding is gradually being done on a
scientific plan. 1t has heretofore been
the rule to make an animal fat and then
send It to market. 1t is now known
tina: feeding can be so conducted as to
secure large proportion OF lean as we'll
as fat, and the animal will gain as rapid
ly In weight as when feeding for fat.
The new system is, therefore, better,
for it improves the quality and secures
a higher price for their product, while
the manure from animals fed for lean is
more valuable than that from very fat
stock

The Riches OF Alaska.

Governor Swins.ord, in his report,
sta that the coas, line OF Alaska,
1S,211 miles, is nearly twice the COM
bined Atlantic aud Pacific coast lines
os the United States. The market
value of the Alaska fisheries for last
year Is estimated at $4,000, 900. A
thousand salmon. averaging ten pounds
each, have been taken in Sitka bay in
single haul. The seal fisheries yield to
the government S31. 800 annually, .or
enough to pay 4 per cent. on the amount
paid Russia tor the country. a single
island IS said TO bs practically a noun
tain of ore, and 10 contain mineral
wealth enough TO pay of the whole of
our national debt.
TIE fish commission steamer Alba
tross sailed into Puget sound early last
month, after an Interesting cruise in
Alaskan waters. Dssp sea soundings
were made TO verify those made by
Commodore B-lkuap in the TuscarUra
willie locating line for Japnese a ca
ole in 1874. Captain Tanner found
even greater depths in short distances
than the Belknsp soundings. At one
point 3, 800 fathoms was reported. In
three miles the ocean bottom was found
TO sink from forty TO /, 100 fathoms, and
in twenty miles at another point from
500 10 ?, 100 fathoms, the ocean canyon
being long and deep.
Several new varIties OF fish were
brought TO the surface by travis and
by hook and line from these ocean
depths. One had head like a shark.
With large teeth, but body like an eel
or a snake, tapering to a point as fine
az knitting needle. Some fine speci-
menes of shrimps were secured at
points near the coast. A quantity of
dne clans, which are used for bait by
fishermen, were planted in a small inlet
west OF O0nalaska. From this port the
Albatross sailed book east of the
Aieutian Island group and down to-
wand Kodiak SOuhdiugs and dredg-
ings wern made all along, and the 100
fsthom curve located. Great numbers
Of Goldfish were secured. The waters
in that region are n.l=d with cod, those
at distance from the coast being
much the best.

Snakes in Winter.

y word as 10 alternating hole. l
know of many places so design ted, bu.
never examined but one. Almost al
ways they are found where a cleft or
rift II out-cropping rocks leads to open
space below. In the one l was fanil-
lar with the rock is not two feet above
the surface, not over a dozen feet in
length, and narrow in proportion 10 its
length. This body or rock had two
long. narrow cleavings or crevices. In
the fall snake could occasionally be
seen entering, but this was seldom,
owing, no doubt, 10 the long time over
which the period for seeking rPpose on
the part OF individual snakes extends.
do not think, however, that l ever
knew or heard of the snakes leaving
this winter home uutil the frost vas
thoroughly out of the ground and az
least midday warmth thoroughly as
sured. The warm days of late April,
when little frost fingers In tine air at
night, followed by warm sun during the
day, seemed to be the period chosen for
going forth. They did not issue out
singly or ia couples, but reptile would
follow reptile in quick succession.
Their movements would be quite slug
gish, and often would remain half in
and half out OF the opening until thor
oughly warmed up by the heat of the
sun. This ou going was all finished in

snakes, in as many minutes ard that
same morning over a hundred had bee u
killed by Amos Lyon, son or PuIdy
Lyon, who owned the farm upon which
this alternating spot is located. All

gether here tor their winters slumber.

THE LAST KISS.
Inn, nv the half.written poem.

Iput by the half.written poem, ~
While the pen idly trailed In my hand,
Writes on, Had | words to complete II,
Who'd read il, or who'd understand"
But the little bare feet on the stairway,
And the faint, smothered laugh in the hall,
And the e~erie-low lisp IN the silence,
Cry up to me over il all.
So / gather il up-where was broken
The tear.fads -iead Of my theme,
Telling how, as one night | sat writing,
A fairy broke in ON my dream
A little inquisitive fairy
NV own little girl, with the gold
OF the sun In her hair and the dewy
Blue eyes of the fairies of old.
Twas the dear little girl that I scolded-
"For was IL a moment liketLis,'
Isaid, when she knew I was busy,
To come romping in for a kiss
Come rowdying up from her mother
And olamoring there at my knee
For o n little kiss for my dolly
And one little uzzer for mef"
God pity the heart that repealed her
And the cold hand that turned her away,
And take from the lips that denied her
This answerless prayer 0 fto-day!
Take, Lord, from my mem'ry forever
That piyifIl sob Of despair,
And the patter and trip Of the little bare feet
And the one piercing cry on the START
Iput by the half-written poem,
While the pen idly trailed in my hand.
Writes on, Had l words 10 complete il,
Who'd read It, or who'd understands
But the little bare feet on the stairway
And the faint smothered laugh in the hall
And the eerielow lisp on the silence,
Cry up 10 me over It all.

O~yer-Dressing of Children.

A spirit Of unwholesome rivalry is
~engendcrcd in children by the absurdly
rich way in which many parents over
dress them. They sacrifice their own
appearance in order to lavish money on
the little ones, and the only result is to
make the children proud, vain. SELFISH,
and, when old enough, disappointed with
the position in life in which they find
themselves, Not long ago / noticed in a
