THE TURNPIKE ROAD.

10 strange it seems, SO strange and sweet
That here life's busy tide once flowed:
That bravely trod our grandsire's feet,
With light hoart. or with heavy load.
Through this forsaken turnpike road.
As walking in some holy nave
We tread the grass grown ruts today:
An if they marked some ancient grave.
We search upon the milestones gray
Their numbers almost worn away
Beyond the wood and winding stream
Beat the worlds pulses, strong and clear.
With roar and rush of steel and steam;
But. changeless through the changing year,
A sacred silence reigneth here
Yet violets and the windhower sweet
IN fairy hosts here greet the spring,
And following Summers hasting feet.
Blue Gentian-shy and winsome thing
Comes forth to hear the last bird sing.
And Fancy aweaves mystic spell
Around this nook in Natures bowers,
Perchance the smiles and tears that fell
The conquests and defeats as well
That made life in those bygone hours,
Have here found root and bloom in flowers
And could II be, on every tomb
Gas to our toilwon goal we speed)
That some sweet flower should live and bloom
Harvest Of brave or holy deed
All. who could ask a richer meed'
God rest their souls in byWays fair.
Who heavenly seed on earth have sowed.
while we .sun still life's burdens bear
Ratientiy,lifi our loads of care f-r s-s

English and American Homes.

Much is said of the luxury of the Old
World, but people who have had oppor-
tunities for comparison testify that the
average of comfort in living is much
higher in the United States than in Eng
land and Europe. Even the homes Of
the wealthiest are entirely lacking in
comforts and convenienees that are re-
garded as Indispensable among the mid
die class and even the poorer homes of
the United States. Many English houses
occupied by families of means are not
supplied with steam or water. and the
general method of heating is by open
6replaces fed with smoky soft coal
Hot air furnaces are almost unknown.
Set bowls, with hot and cold water
faucets, are regarded as non-permissible
extravaganza even by the wealthiest,
and only the very wealthiest sometimes
indulge in the luxury of a bathroom A
hotel having one advertises it as spe-
cial and unusual attraction. Candles
are still much relied on for illumination.
A hundred other conveniences regarded
as necessaries in American homes are
unknown in English households. Good
Housekeeping.

Facts That Have Been Ascertained By
Science and the Mechanics.
Gold-beaters, by hammering, can
reduce gold leaves to such minute thin
ness that two hundred and cighty-two
thousand must be laid upon eacn other
to produce the thickness Of an inch.
Yet each leaf is so perfect and free
from holes, says the st. Louis Republic,
that one of them laid on any surface, as
in gliding, gives the appearance of solid
gold. They are so thin, that If formed
into book, fifteen hundred would only
occupy the space of o single leaf of book
paper. A single volume of gold leaf
book one inch in thickness would have
as many pages as an entire library of
fifteen hundred volumes of common
books, even though the volumes aver
aged four hundred pages each!
Platinum and silver can each be
drawn into wire many times smaller
than human hair. The former metal
has been drawn into wire SO fine that
twenty-seven of them twisted together
could lave been inserted in the hollow
of hair; that is, if a human being or
human-made machine could be found
minute and precise enough for such a
delicate undertaking.
A burning taper uncovered for a
single instant, during which it does not
lose power amounting to the one-thou-
sandth of grain, would fill with light
sphere four miles in diameter so as to
be visible from every part of the COM
pass.
The thread of the silk-worm is so
small that an average of forty-two Of
them are twisted together to form a
thread of common sewingsill; that of the
spider is many diamcters smaller. Two
drains of spider-web by weight would,
If stretched into straight line, reach
from London, Eng, to Edinburgh, Scot
land, distance of over four hundred
miles.
In sour paste, the milt of Goldfish,
or even in water in which vegetables
have been infused, the microscope dis
covers animalcule SO small that mill
ions of them would not equal the size
Of grain of wheat And yet nature
with singular prodigality, has sup
piled many of these with organs as
complete as those of whale or an ele
plant. In single ounce of such mat
ter there are more living creatures thar
there are human beings on the face o.
the globe.
A grain of carmine or half grain Of
aniline will tinge a hogshcad of water
