LOGS AND LUMBER.
Gumbermen and Their Winters
Work in the Woods.
What . Log Goes Through Before Reaoh-
ing the Lumber-Yard-Life On .
Drive-Operatlons Of the
Boom Companies.

The lumbermen are in the midst of
the winters work in the woods. The
campaign for the logging season is laid
put with every care. The place Of oper-
alton in the woods is decided upon,
camps are located, shanties are built,
and logging roads outlined. All these
things are best done before the snow
,omes, and allows the immediate dip
ping into action when the moment for
opening operations comes. logging
ramp is located with reference to the
nearest access to the timber to be oper-
ated upon-other conditions having due
weight also, such as the proximity of
good water and o connection with =
main road leading to the base of sup
plies. Though the work of hauling
never begins until winter has finally
set in, and there is snow enough to
make good roads, the thrifty logger is
often actually at work considerably be-
fore. He is chopping down the trees,
saving them into logs Of proper length
and "skidding" them by the use of OK
teams.
"Skidding' is hauling them together
into considerable piles and placing them

SlCK-ROOM HINTS.

Little Things That VIII Often Do More
Good Than Much Medicine.
Sick people, especially those who are
sick with chronic diseases, are likely to
be irritable and fussy, which certainly
is not strange. Day after day, and
week after week, of the same unchang-
ing routine, unable perhaps to read,
and always painfully conscious of exist
ence-this is their lot. This being the
case, unfailing patience should always
be shown.
Endeavor to make the sick-room
cheerful and agreeable, not to yourself,
but to the invalid. This last is impor-
tant. No matter how we'll meant your
plans, no matter how disappointed you
may be at their failure, the sick ones
whims are more important than any
plan of yours, unless it be positively to
his advantage. Even then there is room
for debate. Remove pictures or orna-
ments that annoy, and replace them
with those that please.
Be sure that the room is light, unless
there be some good reason to the con-
trary. Let it be we'll ventilated, yet
without direct draught. This may be
secured by arranging board, just in
side, across the lower part of the win
dow, so that the sash may be raised and
the air come in behind.
Let the room be kept clean and sweet,
this last in its literal sense. Take
pains to prevent any settled odor in
the sick-room, by having free venti-
lation with fresh air, clean bed-clothes
and body clothing, carefully-covered
glasses for medicines. immediate, care
full and thorough attention to the per-
sonal needs of the sick one, and scru-
pulous general cleanliness. .~s.-~
Much may be said in regard to per-
sonal comfort, but will mention only
a few points. Avoid direct sunlight, or
even daylight, shining in the invalid's
face. The same precaution should be
borne in mind when artificial light is
used. Let the invalid be kept in "grate-
full shade" g.,
If, as in many cases, the invalid is
confined 20 the bed, the relief afforded
by shaking up the pillows is great.
Calmness and repose of manner, quiet,
kindly tones of voice, gentle handli ng
and expectant watchfulness will do more
good in many cases than much medicine.
Enter and leave the room quietly, and
never upon any consideration come sud
denly and blusteringly upon asick per-
son. -Congregstionalist I'll

A Wonderful Tlmo-Pieco,

The most ingenious, perfect and COM
plex watch ever manufactured was sent
out from the works of Patek, Philippe
& Co., of Geneva, Switzerland, in July,
1887, and is now in possession of Baron
Nicholas. 1t is what is known as the
full-sized "hunter." On one side there
is dial of the regulation hour exhib-
iting the hour, minute and second
hands; also an independent chrono-
graph hand which marks the fifth of q
second. The same dial has repeating
mechanism which strikes the hours,
quarters and minutes. The opposite
dial has hands pointing to the months,
weeks and days. Another large central
hand on this dial, if set at the begin
ming of each year, correctly points to
all moon phases and also acts as per-
petual calendar. 1t is so constructed as
to admit of its keeping two different
times, say standard on ono side and sun
time on the other.-American Analyst.

specimens known in England) require
warm coats for out of doors, says the
London Queen. They are described in
"Stonehenge's" book on dogs as the Chi
nese edible dogs, and those with crested
head and tufted tail are very uncommon.
Chica and Chang both have these dis
tinguishing marks.
The Japanese canine, whose picture
appears herewith, is of q race of small
dogs, black and white in color, of the
spaniel class, resembling the King
Charles, which are said to be descended
from a pair of these Japanese, presented
by the Dutch Ambassador to Henrietta
Maria, Queen of Charles /. They are
very intelligent and affectionate, show
ing in their dainty little ways their
descent from q long line of pet ances-
tors. The Japanese ladies used to carry
them in the large sleeves of their pict-
uresque dress, and when at home keep
them hung up in bamboo cages. They
are very fond of fruit and vegetables,
and, although rare in England, thrive
we'll and are most charming pets.

KISSING CHILDREN.

&SsctAc0 That 10 - l1c0nsldor1t0 % It
II Dangerous.
OF the practice Of kissing children
wnen one has sore throat, Dussel-
eor1 physician says in German medical
journal: Speaking mildly, would call
this practice horrible, although the
term "murderous" was ON my tongue.
Yes, indeed, dear madam, ''murderousr'
You will remember, perhaps, that four
teen days ago you, with great shawl
wrapped around your neck, made visit
TO Mrs. g., and as the little Hans came
running into the room, did you not
snatch the little one in your arms and,
apparently overhowing with tenderness
for him, kiss him to your hearts con-
tent. Then you began to relate what
horribly inflamed throat you had, so
that tho day before you had to decline
an invitation to the concert. You had
no designs on the life of that child, and
yet you killed him just as surely as
though, instead Of your tender kisses,
you had given him strychnine or arsenic.
Your tenderness was fatal. Two or
three days later the boy began to COM
plain OF sore throat, and, when the
physician came, the one word "diph-
liberia" made all clear. To-day little
freshly decorated mound in the church
yard is tho only reminder Of your
visit. The mother has, of course,
not tho slightest suspicion of you; she
ascribes her bitter loss to Providence.
Tho physician did nothing to disturb
this belief, for this would have been as
unwise as unlxind; but will say it that
to your folly alone, my dear madam, the
death of little Hans is due. It is hard
to determine how great part of tho
prevalence of that horrible disease,
diphtheris, is to be attributed to such
thoughtlessness; it is well-established,
however, that adults have diphtheria in
30 mild form often, that it is regarded
as only simple cold. and as a cold is
not infectious, there is no idea that tho
breath may harm any one. AS diphthe-
ria, in the ma shortly of cases, is commu-
nicated by direct contagion, as there is
no surer way of communicating the dis
ease than by kissing, and as kissing has
bcome SO much the custom on all occa-
sions, It is certainly not surprising that
this disease so easily becomes epidemic,
although in this there is no wish to say
that all cases of diphtheria originate
thus. One thing should be remembered:
1t is sometimes greater kindness to
children to show them less tenderness
In this respect.

SAVING Up A BIG TREE.

IN the sleds. 1t is an easier and quicker
method than loading from the stump"
which consists in rolling the log upon
the sled from the ground where the tree
has fallen. The work of loading upon
the sled from the ground is accom-
pished by the use Of a pair of oxen, q
chain being passed from the sled under
and around the log and thence to the
team, which thus rolls it forward over a
pair Of skids to and upon the sled. A
horse team will haul from one thousand
to two thousand feet from the woods to
the stream. AS one thousand feet of
logs will weigh nearly two tons, an esti
mate may be made of the immense
generally fine, and in the main having
downward grade, these large loads are
very readily managed. The first logs
''landed" at the stream are usually
rolled directly upon the ice, and the
others following on top of them, the
ice breaks down and the front of the
roll-way nearly fills up the channel.
Then, as the logs are delivered from the
sleds by accommodating thousands, they
the pile becomes too high for further
unloading, and new section of river
bank is resorted to. Thus, after sue
cessful winters work, the bank is piled
full for miles along the stream with the
log harvest, until some time during the
month of March, when the days become
30 long and the sun 80 warm that the
snow disappears from the roads, and the
logging season is ended, unless, as some
big operators are doing, roads for the
use of dummy engine and cars arc
laid into the forest.
From the outset the lumberman has
contest. All through the winter there
is anxiety lest there be too much snow,
or not enough; too much water in the
spring, or, as the prospect now for the
coming year, not water enough, and
consequently lower streams than known
this season. If the snow has been
light and the spring early and warm,
and especially If the previous fall has
been dry one, the melted snow is
taken up by the swamps and ground, or
passes quickly off down the streams be-
fore the warmth has released the logs
from their icy anchorages, and by the
time the streams are open the water has
gone. In that case the logs can not
be started until the annual fresket in
June-the "June fresh," as the loggers
say-and in case that fails, tho whole
crop is "hung up for the balance Of the
year-indeed, until the next spring. Or,
