Organic and Inorganic Matter.

Matter is sometimes divided into
two classes: organic and inorganic.
Organic substances are those which
have been converted into living organ
isms; or, in other words, which either
form or have formed part of the
bodies of plants and animals. They are
produced by the processes OF life. All
other matter is called inorganic.
When organic matter is burned or
decays. it returns again to an morgan
ic condition.
Pieces of stoIe or iron, for instance.
are not organic, because they have no
organs such as exist in anything which
has life. On the other hand, wood, hay.
flesh and bones are examples o: organ
ic matter, since they have been pro-
duced by the growth Of living plants
and animals, and retain the same mat
ter and the same form which they had
when in living state. Soil may be
partly organic and partly inorganic,
since it not only contains mineral mat
ter, but also vegetable and animal mat
ter, left by the death OF plants and an
imals, which has not yet become so
far changed as to lose its organic con-
dition.
Organic substances have never been
produced by artificial means. For ar
ticles of food,-fruit, vegetables, and
meat,-as well as for the materials
used for clothing, cotton, wool, linen,
and silk,-the world must depend upon
natures processes IN agriculture.
All attempts to initiate nature by
producing these substances have failed.

The Value Of the Ballot.

l have no superstition about the bal
lot. l do not suppose it would imme-
diately right all the wrongs of women,
any more than it has righted all those
of men. But what political agency has
righted so many? Here are thousands
Of miserable men all around US; but
they have every path open to theLi.
They have their advocates they have
their votes they make the laws, aud,
at last and at worst. they have their
strong right hands for defence. And
here are thousands of miserable women
pricking back death and dishonor with
little needle; and now the sly hand
Of science is stealing that little needle
away. The ballot does not make those
men happy nor respectable nor rich nor
noble; but they guard it for themselves
with sleepless jealousy, because they
know it is the golden gate to every op-
portunity; and precisely the kind Of
advantage it gives to one sex, it would
give to the other. 1t would arm it
with the most powerful weapon known
to political society; it would maintain
the natural balance of the sexes in hui
man affairs, and secure to each fair
play within its sphere. George WI
liam Curtis.

Whittier's Early Home.


Inc " UfBhn ioluinn.
Mrs Lucy Stone gives in the Won
ans Journal the following account Of
her first acquaintance with Whittier:
In the earlier days of the work for
women, when few gave the movement
a welcome. his words were often an in
spiration and comfort. | remember
once going 10 Amesbury to lecture on
woman's rights. Ii was probably more
than forty years ago. | stayed at the
inn, as private houses had no open
door for woman who was supposed
to be out OF her sphere. Mr.. Whittier
came and invited me to tea at his home.
Its quiet picture is before me now.
There sat his mother, with her Quaker
cap, her snow-whlte kerchief, so neat
~ folded over her shoulders her fin
gers busy with knitting the open fire
glowing on the hearth his sweet-faced
sister, with her white apron, making
the tea and laying the table. while the
tall poet, with his hands behind him,
walked back and forth, or sat with
loving eyes fixed on his mother. who,
in her turn. looked with meek pride at
her son. 1t was here, in this quiet home,
that the poems were written that stirred
the whole nation.
He said TO me: There is no doubt
of the justice of the claim for woman ;
rights; no doubt of its triumph. You
have only to work and to wait While
he was out Of the room. | tried to ex-
press to his mother the pleasure and
comfort her sons poems had been TO
me. She seemed pleased, and said ::
When he first began to write, | feared
the critics would torture his young soul
out Of him; but we were surprised and
delighted with the welcome his poems
received"

How Whittier was Discovered.

Mr.. A. l.. Haskell, of Boston. who
is past eighty years of age, and is
probably the only man now living who
was schoomate of VIM. LLOYD Gar
rison, gave me a graphic account of
''how Mr.. Whittier was discovered"
AS | remember the story, 1t was as fol-
lows: Mr.. Garrison was editing the
Newburyport Free Press. The box in
to which correspondence and articles
for the Free Press were put was at the
bottom of the stairs, out of sight of
the editorial rooms. Anonymous poems
came into this box week after week
The poems had the true ring, and so
much merit that the editor earnestly.
but vainly, sought for tie author
There was a drug store opposite. Its
door and windows overlooked the ed
ltor's box. An agreement was made
with the druggist TO keep an eve on
that box, and to let it be known if he
saw any one who was not among the
regular contributors to the paper put
in an article, or letter. They had not
long 10 wait. Before many days the
druggist saw man at the box. who
put something in and Immediately left.
lie at once reported the fact to the ed
ltor. Mr.. Garrison left his types, hast
lily put on his coat. and followed the
retreating author. On overtaking him,
he saw tall. lean, bashful-looking
youth, who, being confronted with the
poem he had just left in the box, con
fessed, with bushes, it was he who had
put ii and others there. After some
conversation, they went together TO
Mr.. Winters father, who had been
inclined to consider his son a lazy youth

The Nicotine Test,

Any one DESTROYS Of testing the guam
tity Of nicotine which he probably alb
serbs into his system from burning
cigar can do so by simple experiment.
Let him take mouthiu of smoke,
then fold his handkerchief double,
place il across his lips and violently
blow The smoke through the linen. when
he will see brown stain on the cloth
from the tobacco oil contained in The
smoke.
The quantity from single mouthful
Of smoke is often sufficient To sta n
brown a section OF the handkerchief as
large a a silver dime. When this is
the result of a single inhalation the
quantity Of nicotine absorbed by the
system Of man who Is smoking all
day must be very considerable, partic-
ularly if, as in the case or cigarette
smokers, he draws the smoke into his
lungs and so exposes much larger
surface TO its deleterious influences.

Bright Star of Hope.
BY MISS j. NJ. WILLIAMSON.

BY MISS j. NJ. WILLIAMSON.
Amid the darkness of the years,
We have our dream of life and death;
Our vision dim with unshed tears
unmindful Of the faltering breath
Yet as We beat the ebou bar
a ray OF beauty seems to dawn;
Our hearts are glad-we hail the star
Bright star of hope, shine on,
Our years are few, our griefs are great
We grope so blindly in our dream
We have no time to question fate
Or doubt if all be as it seem;
But 5lindly hail beam of light
That seems the harbinger of dawn
Projected on our starless night
Sweet star of hope, shine on.
Shine on. and in thy genial ray
How idle seem our bitter tears,
How like traveller in gray
To US the crownless night appears!
How We forget the chill and damp
While looking toward the Frightening
dawn:
. like never-faiing lamp,
Bright star of hope, shine on.
