A MORNING THOUGHT.

What II some morning when the stars ere
paling.
And the dawn whitened. and the east was
clear
Strange peace and rest fell on me from the
presence
OF n benignant spirit standing near:
And ] should tell him. as lie stood beside me-
This is earth most Friendly earth. and
fair:
Daily its and shore through sun and sha-
dow
Faithful it turns, robed in it's air
There is blest living here, loving and serving
And quest of truth and serene friendships
dear:
But stay not, Spiritl Earth has one destroyer
His name is Death: flee, lest he find thee
herel''
And what if then while the still morning
frightened,
And freshcned in the elm the summers
breath,
Should gravely smile on me the gentle angel.
And take my hand and say. My name IL
Death

Filtering Charcoal from sawdust.

White sawdust and shavings are
turned to account by M. Claimant, Of
Paris, for the production of fine vege-
table charcoal, which is intended to
be used for the removal Of unpleasant
favor in ordinary French wine, and
as a filtering medium, especially in
distilIeries, where it is said to he

the saydust Of hard and soft woods
must be separated, because the former
requires heat of 700 degs. centigrade,
whereas 500 degs. centigrade suffices
for carbonizing the latter.
Carbonization, which lasts about an
hour. is effected 10 freclay, plumbago
or cast irons retorts of about 600
cubic inches capacity. But previous
to this process the sawdust must be
sifted, first through coarse screen to
remove splinters and ,extraneous
matter and then through fine sieve
which only permits passage of the
actual wood dust with the adherent
calcareous matter. The product of
carbonization must again be sifted to
get rid of this calcareous matter which
has become detached during the pro-
cess, when it will, if the operation
has been carefully performed, resist

Our Would Be Aristocrats.

Thousands of American young mer
of fair education and excellent pos
sibilities, captivated by the pictures Of
English aristocratic life drawn in
English novels, are learning to des-
pise the simple, rational. useful life of
the worthy American citizen, and to
court consideration and vulgar
popularity by adopting the habits and
leading the useless lives of English
lords. As is usual in such cases the
copy is a caricature of the original.
The untitled American lord proves
usually to be a vulgar creature, hav.
ing to assert his self-conferred lord

In England aristocracy has no need
to display or to obtrude itself; in
America it can exist only by display
and obtrusion. For this reason the
American would be nobleman must

to strike the vulgar imagination by

such as any boorish Dives can com
