Wood WOOL.

A machine for making wood wool is be-
ing used in England. According TO The
Commercial Advertiser, wood wool is COM
ing rapidly into favor among manufacture
ers of glass, cutlery, confectionery, etc, for
packing purposes on account of its cleanli-
ness and non-hygroscopic properties, but
its adoption IS hindered, among other
things, by its comparatively high price.
The new machine is inosnded to reduce the
price, for it is of such size and design that
every manufacturer can have one working
on his premises, and can thus turn out his
own wood wool Very little attention is
required by the machine, and all,the parts
are easy renewable Timber of any con-
venicnt length can be cut, and waste pieces
can also be utilized.

In2, however, the conditions are changed.
The illuminated opening in the card acts
as an independent source of light, and casts
the shadow of the pin directly upon the
retina; the head of the pin being smaller
than the pupil of the eye, and being held
so close TO it that the shadow is cast di-
rectly upon the retina, without the usual
reversal of the image, which, therefore, ap-
pears to our mind as upside down, whereas
it is really in an upright position. This
automatic correction by the eye or brain OF
the images thrown upon the retina is
curious fact, and cannot be said to be fully
understood.

Hugh Farrar Dracdermott,s Youth.

NEW YORK, June 12.-It is hard to
speak calmly, still harder to speak crit
cally, of such man as the late Hugh
Farrar Macdermott. One who did not
know him Intimately would be entirely
incapable of telling the world what man
ner of man he was whom we have just
lost. Those who did know him are almost
incapacitated by reason of their sorrow
from estimating him justly, or writing
such story of his life as should pass
into history as the true record of the life
of a true genius.
Such Macder1nott was. The clear
vision, and the blindness; the simple

Hugh Farrar M2edsrmott was born in
Ireland, near Enniskillen, on the 10th of
August, 1851
The father, Thomas Gould Macder-
mott, was a dealer in grain, and during
the famine of 1916 and 1947 he was a
heavy loser, finally becoming soseriously
involved that he gathered UP what
means he had left and came to America
with his family to make a new start N

TO study law. The elder Macdermott.
however, died soon afberward- and the
boy turned to the press for living.
Macdermot<'s writing, immature as it
was, was promising enough TO attract
the attention Of Isaac ". Fry, then the
managing editor OF Tbs Boston Courier,
who determined to train him thoroughly,
and put him at type sitting.

was a typical bohemian Of the highest

The Bible Was Spoiled.

There is such thing as doing a piece of work too thoroughly, as the follow ing incident shows: A Portland lady had a large family Bible that had be- longed to her husbands mother and which both highly prized. For twenty years they travelled @ great deal and al ways took this Bible with them. Each Sunday on returning from church the lady wrote in the margin of this Bible opposite the passage that had formed the preachers text the name of the minister and of the town or city where the sermon was given, also brief com merits. A few months ago the couple came to Portland, and as the Bible was coming from the binding it was taken to bookbinder's to be repaired. It is difficult to imagine the owners feelings when on again receiving the book she found that the bookbinder had not only cut down the previously wide mar gin fully one half, but had carefully gone through the book and erased near ly all the work of the lady's pencil dur ing all these years The book looked better, no doubt, but to the owner it was irreparably spoiled. - Lewiston Journal.

A Woodland WOoing.

It was a breezy and glorious day. Greenwood cemetery looked like a beautiful piece of the Emerald isle in it's fresh spring raiment. The sunny slopes were jeweled with lovely flowers, and death was framed in marvellous forms of life. Birds sang in the trees and sported on the greensward, and if any one thinks that it is lonely thing to be crumbling into dust he needed but brief visit to this beautiful city of the dead to learn his mistake.
 Wandering through the devious ways I came, in a far off corner, upon the spectacle of loves young dream. Shel- tered behind massive tomb that was covered over with the chaste chiselings of Italian genius I came upon dusky pair of wooers from the land of the spaghetti.
 They were very young and very hap py. Spread out before them was a banquet Real Italian bologna with the taste of the garlic in it, and dark hued bread a small bottle of chianti, some young onion shoots and a won derful store of macaroni I noticed among the viands. His strong, young arms that erst turned the crank of the barrel organ, or perhaps yielded the broom of the street cleaning brigade, were around her, supple waist, and as he whispered soft nothings into her shell like ear they ate macaroni to- gether.
 And the way of the eating was this: He would take up a long string of the same, and, placing one end in her mouth and the other in his, they would eat toward each other until their warm lips met in resounding kiss. It was a pretty sight, and I was glad to see that the store of macaroni was large.
 And SO he wooed and won her.
 Shocking! Not at all. Did the sleep ing dust below sleep less soundly be- cause this little onion scented pastoral was being enacted above it? trow not, and when saw guardian of the place coming that way I considered it my duty to hasten to him and draw him away on the pretext of showing me the way to certain place, lest his unsympathetic eyes might see the sight and drive them away from their bliss full luncheon.-New York Herald.

CANAAN, CONN, WEDNESDAY,

cost; and because a Christian life de- mands so much courage and faith they dare not begin to build. Perhaps they are courageous in every other respect. They are not timid in presence of any danger except that of trusting in the infinite mercy of Christ.
 The sheep are more afraid of the shep- herd than of the wolves. They shrink away from the presence of Christ as though he were a tyrant rather than friend who sticketh closer than broth CT. They feel more safe in the ranks of the enemy, where they must suffer infinite defeat, than in the army of Christ, which shall be more than con- querors through him that hath loved them. Men shiver and tremble before religion as though they were command ed to throw their life away, as though it were a surrender of honor and man. Illness, and reason and self respect, and all that is worth keeping.
 WHY SHOULD GODS MERCY BE DoUBTED2
 What has God ever done that his mercy should be doubted2 Was there ever sorrow of his frailest child that he did not pity? Was there ever soul that he left unhelped in the darkness2 Was there ever martyr that he did not strengthen in the fames2 Was there ever 8 dying man to whose relief he did not come at the cry of ''Lord Jesus, receive my spirit9" Aye, my soul, what has God done that so basely thou hast doubted him2 Did he make the whole earth desert2 Are all the skies dark and storm swept2 Is life all sickness? Is the air all plague? Are there nothing but rods and scorpions and furnaces2 God knew how many suspicious and unbeliefs men would entertain in regard to him, and there fore, after making multitude of plain and precious promises, he places his hand on his own heart and swears by his own existence: "As live, saith the Lord God, have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth."
 Why, then, fight against Goda This day the battle rages. Thou art armed with thy sins, thy ingratitude, thy neg lects and Christ is armed against thee, but his weapons are tears, are dying agonies, are calls to mercy, and the bat tie cry which he this day sends over thy soul as he rushes toward thee is, "Save thee from going down to the pit, for have found ransom" I would not envy thy victory, o nearer, if thou dost conquer, for what wilt thou do with the weapons thou hast snatched from the armed Redeemer, what with the tears, what with his dying agonies, what with his calls to mercya Would God that Orpah would get tired o1 Moab! Would God that Orpah would go to Bethlehem!
