Kitchen Consolation.

Oh, this baking and brewing,
This boiling and stewing,
And washing of dishes three times dayi
The griddle-cake turning,
The skimming for churning,
The setting of tables and clearing away!
What is it but WEAKNESS,
Work without cheerfuness,
The same round of labor, day after day?
I'd rather be painting,
Or sewing, braiding,
Or spending my time in pleasanter way.
Thus my fancy kept dreaming
O'er the hot dishes steaming,
Wondering why 1 kitchen fire tend
Till angels low whispering
Compelled me to listening,
And Taught me these household dlscomforts to
mend.
Is your work not the Oldest,
The usefulest, noblest-
In ministering daily to the life God has given?
If the work is unceasing,
Ofwashing and sweeping,
Remember that orders the first law of heaven!
Pray, what gives more PLEASURE
Than well-seasoned dinner,
When tastefully served on the family board?
Thank God you can labor
Can knead, mix and flavor,
And draw pleasant meals from the farmers rich
hoard
That heartsome delight
At morn, noon, and night,
When the family gathers for chat and good cheer.
Then should you be complaining
Of work unavalIing
That brings joy to the loved ones each day in the
year?

some error in the distribution of

A New Sewer Pipe Constructor.

A sewer pipe machine is the latest
to claim public attention as a Mime
apolis invention, and the owners of the
patents are confident that they will
revolutionize sewer pipe making by its
use. The invention is of a good deal
of Importance, as at present all of the
sewer pipe used IL the country is made
by hand, and this method is so eXpen-
sive that it has been impossible to
make the pipe in sufficient quantities
to supply the demand. A great deal
of brick has been used in sewer con-
struction in consequence. By the pres
ent method of hand manufacture, two
men can only get out fifteen lengths of
pipe a day, while the new machine,
with two men to operate it, can make
100 lengths.
The pipe is made of composition of
cement and sand. By the hand meth
cd fifteen pound lamp was used in
pounding the composition after it had
been placed in the mold. This made a
very weak pipe, as the weight was not
sufficient to pack the material until it
became firm. In the machine a 300
pound hammer is used to force the
mixture into shape in one motion, and
this makes a pipe that will stand a
weight of 70, 900 pounds without break
ing. and such weight is never placed
ON it.-New York Telegram.

The Milwaukee Wisconsin reprints
this Lincoln story as furnishing an
excellent illustration applicable to
the present conditions In the early
days of the war, before the country
was ripe for emancipation as a war
measure,a delegation of Chicago cler-
gymen waited upon President Lin
coin at Washington and urged him
to issue a proclamation abolishing
slavery. The president listened to
them attentively and then asked the
apparently irrelevant question. Call
sleeps tail leg, and how many
legs will the sheep have? Five, an
swered several of the clergymen in
unrefiecting chorus. No, replied
Lincoln, not five, but four, for calling
tail a leg won't make it leg. The
point of this story is in it's applica-
ton to the silver craze of the pres
ent day. Calling eighty cents worth
of silver dollar doesn't make it SO.

NEw YORK, Aug. 5-The Herald says:
"Do the Blaine Republicans believe that
the success Of Mckinley would make the
tariff the overshadowing issue in 1892, and
are the Blaine Republicans for this reason
preparing to knife the author of the tariff
bill in Ohio this yearfp
The Herald's Columbus dispatches indi-
cate that they are. Mr.. Mckinley more
completely embodies the protection prin-
ciple than any other American, and it may
be said FOR Mr. Blaine that in him the re-
ciprocity idea finds its strongest and most
intelligent advocate. Mr.. Blaine is bitterly
antagonistic to the protective idea as it finds
expression ia the Mckinley tariff law.
What. then, more natural than that he
should covertly desire the defeat Of its
acknowledged champion in a gubernatori-
Al contest where tariff reform and tariff
prohibition furnish the battle cries for the
respective forces engagedg
Rumors That Blaine win Resign.
Among the many rumors current Ia
Washington is one crediting Secretary
Blaine with the purpose Of retiring from
the cabinet at an early date and seeking
an asylum in Italy for the restoration Of
his health. The story must be taken,
however with many grains Of allowance.
Well informed people say that Mr.. Blaine
is gradually recovering from his late i'll
ness, and the belief is general that upon
his restoration to health he will return to
the capital and resume again the duties Of
his department. These duties are very
eongenial to Mr.. Blaine. There is an in
tellectual delight in them that cannot bs
found in the ordinary routine OF the Other
executive departments while the prestige
Of the Office is far beyond that enjoyed b,
