person is apt to use the palest kind Of writ

Sometimes it is very difficult to rsapove a
glass stopper from bottle. A cloth wet
in hot water sometimes is sufficient; but If
this fails, remember that the principle is to
expand the neck Of the bottle by heat and
not the stopper With hot water, the Lat
ter is often heated equally with the neck,
and thus tho desired effect is not produced.
BY holding the neck Of the bottle about
half an inch above the flame Of lamp OF

Care must be taken TO turn the bottle
rapidly, and not allow the flame TO touch
the glass. as it might crack it. When the
glass is thoroughly heated steady pull

And cannot carry this battle;
o brother, what shall dor

With spears that are deadly bright;
Against me SO from the cradle
Do fate and my fathers fight2"
Then said to the man his angel:
Thou wavering, foolish soul,
Back to the ranksl What matter
To win or to lose the wholel
"Adjudged by the little judges,
Who hearken not well, nor see;
Not thus, by the outer issue,
The Wise shall interpret thee.
'.Thy will is the very, the only,
The solemn event Of things;
The weakest of hearts defying
Is stronger than all these Kings.
'sThough out of the past they gather,
Minds Doubt and Bodily Pain,
And pallid Thirst of the Spirit
That is kin to the other twain,
"And Grief in a cloud of banners,
And ringleted Vain Desires,
And Vice, with the spoils upon him
OF thee and thy beaten sires.
"What hands soever have armed them
Toward victory still to ride,
A meaning left TO the rebel,
A use to the regicide,
$50 bitter and large a meaning,
A vehement use 50 true,
One steady intent to scorn them
Doth scorn them and slay them tool
while Kings Of eternal evil
Yet darken the hills about,
Thy part is with broken saber
To rise on the last redoubt-
ITO fear not sensible failure,
Nor covet the game at all,
But fighting, fighting, fighting,
Die driven against the WALL"
