An Industry to Which Timber Country
May Be Very Probably Devoted.
The rapid development of wood-pulp
| manufacture in Maine is an intimation
to the South and West that there is a
new industry to which their great for
est areas may be, in part, very profita-
bly, devoted. For, apparently, it
doesn't matter much what species of
wood is used in the production of pulp;
possibly spruce is preferred in the ex-
IRENE Northeast quite as much on ac-
count of its convenience as for any
reason. AT any rate, it is quite certain
that poplar, hemlock, cypress and sew
eral other common woods would an
swer the purposes of the business ac-
ceptably; and it is also contended that
white pine would do. What may be
regarded as specially attractive feat
ure of the wood-pulp industry, from
the standpoint of economy, is the
fact that it utilities the waste incident
to Underwriting on large scale.
Only the limbs of the fallen timber are
taken; so there is no competition pos
sible with lumber manufacturers, rail-
splitters or others having use merely
for the bodies of the trees. The only
domain trenched upon is that OF fire.
wood, more particularly in the corded
form; but surely there could be no
grievous losses in this direction to the
fuel supply. For, naturally, the de-
mand on behalf of wood-pulp manu-
facture would center itself where the
timber is most abundant and cheapest;
and in this way large quantities OF
felled timber, now left to feed forest
fires or decay on the spot, would be
turned to profitable account COM

CHEERFUL HUSBANDS.
How Men Can Tighten the HOusehol
Life for Their Wives.

How Men Can Tighten the HOuseh old
Life for Their Wives.
Very much has been said about the
obligation Of wives, in regard to wear
ing perpetual smiles, but it seems as if
our literary talents have never once
thought it worth while for the "man
O. the house, occasionally to don a
smile when at home in his own family
circle.
1t certainly is just as essential to
domestic happiness for man to be
sunny and good-tempered as it is for
the woman.
We often doubt whether the male
head of family really appreciates
the opportunity he has for diffusing
sunshine at home, Or comprehends
how much of gloom he can bring into
the family circle by entering its sacred
precincts with frown On his counte-
nance. The wife and mother is
within four walls from morning
till night, with but few exceptions;
and must bear the worriment of fretful
children, inefficient servants, weak
nerves and many other perplexities;
and she must do this, day after day,
while the husband goes out from these
petty details of home care, has the
benefit of the pure, fresh air, meets
with friends, has a social, good time,
which altogether acts as charm upon
the physical man, and, if he does as he
should, he will come home cheerful
and buoyant, and thereby tighten the
household life for his wife, and drive
dull care and gloom from her care
worn brow. Some men can be all
smiles away from home, but at home
they are as cross as bears; and yet we
hear it said, on every sides ''Wives,
meet your husbands with a smile. y

MAKING ENGLISH GUNS.

How Mighty War Engines Are Constructed
In Woolwich Arsenal.
Passing on to the gun factory proper,
which is the great center of attraction
to all visitors, whether military or
civilian, we find ourselves surrounded
by huge masses of glowing metal in
process of forging, welding and
shrinking, or undergoing curious
process of slisemboweling by means of
q werfully-constructed borer- Gangs
of workmen were busily engaged in
heating, saving and planning sections
of gums of all sizes and shapes. which
are intended for the navy, the field as
occasion may require, and harbor and
home defense. The great object in
view here at the present time is to pro-
vide, as soon as possible. for the needs
of the coaling stations, upon the Sc
eurity of which so much would depend
in time of war. The guns are shipped
off from the arsenal pier as they are
turned out, but the work OF
constructing a "Woolwich infant" is
by no means as expeditions as could be
desired. This new form OF weapon Is
not made out of one solid casting, but
of several distinct hoops or rings OF
solid and carefully-prepared steel. The
base of the. gun is appended and one
ring after another is fitted upon It
