How They Stand the Heat.

How the men employed in iron ioundries,
steamship boiler rooms, blast furnaces, and
other torrid places stand the terrible heat
is mystery to all but the initiated. In
the melting-room of mint the thermom-
eter usually indicates one hundred and six
degrees, in gasworks one hundred and
eighteen degrees, and in blast furnaces
about one hundred and fifteen deg rees
while in steamships the firemen someti mes
have to endure one hundred and forty de
grees of heat.
In all these places the men wear very
little clothing, undoubtedly suffer from the
exposure, but not so much as a person
might suppose. An observer gives the
following explanation of this curious fact;
"The whole point is," said he, chat
these men are not reached by the humidity
of the atmosphere. They are working in
places where the artificial heat is so in
tense as to drive this out, and one hundred
and eighteen degrees of heat in dry air IL
not felt so much as ninety degrees of heat
when the atmosphere is moist; the latter
tells terribly on people, and sorely tries
their vitality.
"When the humidity is very intense it
prevents the pcrspiration from passing out
through the pores. Its pressure on the
flesh is very exhausting, and the confine-
ment Of the perspiration is exceedingly un-
healthy. Although people do not know it,
they would really be cooler while sitting
beside red-ho stove than they would be
in the street on such day as sometimes
occurs in midsummer "-The HOtddU

FIRST LOVE.

How does a woman love? Once, no
more,
Though life forever it's loss doplOre;
Deep in sorrow or deep III sin,
One king raigneth her heart within,
One alone, by night and day,
Moves her spirit to curse or pray.
One voice only can call her soul
Back from the grasp of deaths control;
Though lovers beset her, or friends de-
ride,
Yea, whom she smileth another mans
bride,
Still for her master her life makes
moan
Oace is forever, and once alone.
How does a man love? Once fOrall,
The sweetest voices of life may call,
Sorrow daunt him or death diSmay,
joys red roses bedeck his way;
Fortune smile, or jest, or frown,
The cruel thumb of the world turn
down;
Lust betray him, or love delight,
| Through storm or sunshine, by day or
| night,
| Wandering, toiling, asleep, awake,
Though souls may madden, or weak
hearts break,
Better than wife. or child, or pelt,
Once add forever he loves-himseH.
