IN THE VALLEY.

To Gay, when the sun was lighting my house
ON the pine-clad hill,
The breast of bird was ruffiei as it perched
ON my window-sil,
And a leaf was chased by the kitten on the
breeze-swept garden walk,
And the dainty head
Ola dahlia rel
Was stirred on its slender stalk.
Oh! happy the bird at the rose tree, unheed-
ing the threatening STORM
And happy the blitne leaf-chaser, rejoicing in
sunshine warm
They take no thought the mouow-they
know no cares to-day;
And the thousand things
That the future brings
Are a blank to such as they.
But I, by the household ingle, can interpret
the looming clouds,
For tn wiud "soo-hoos" through the key

shrJuds;
And know mus quit my mountain, and go

On the windy bill,
When the Autumn tempests blow.

'TNixt temporal things that perish and eter-
nal things that dwell
When pillows AMI waves surround me, and
waters my soul o'ertlow,

From the mountain top
To the sheltering vale below

Faretold His Own Death.

James Beckwourth, the famous scout
who became war chief under the name
OF Medicine Calf among the Crows, has
related TO a friend an extraordinary feat
Of deviation, which great war chief Of
the Crow Indians performed in his pres
ence on the eve Of leading his warriors
to battle. The chief was an aged man
and protested to have premonition of
death. For many moons he had led the
Grows successfully against their heredi-
tary foes, the Blackfeet. 1t was not his
heart that failed him now, but his medi-
cine had lost its potency.
In the dusk of the gray morning he
led his braves out on an open prairie
and, setting his shield on edge some if-
teen or twenty feet in front Of them,
pointed to it with his lance. As the
eyes of the lighting men rested upon the
embossed surface of the buckler il APP

to the head Of the chief; it then, by the

Apples.

Chemically the apple is composed of
vegetable fibre, albumen, sugar, gum
chlorophyl, malic acid, gallo acid, lime
and much water. Furthermore, the
German analysts say that the apple
contains larger percentage of phos-
phorus than any other fruit or vegetable.
The phosphorus is admirably adapted
for renewing the essential nervous mat
ter-lecithin-of the brain and spinal
chord.
1t is, perhaps, for the same reason,
rudely understood that old Scandinavian
traditions represent the apple as the food
of the gods, who, when they felt them
selves to be growing feeble and infirm, re-
sorted to this fruit, renewing their powers
OF mind and body. Also, acids of the apple
are of singular use for men of sedentary
habits, whose livers are sluggish in action,
those acids serving to eliminate from the
body noXious matters, which, if retained,
would make the brain heavy and dull, or
bring about jaundice or skin eruptions,
or other allied troubles
Some such experience must have led
to the custom of taking apple sauce with
roast pork, rich goose and like dishes.
The malic acid of ripe apples, either raw
or cookedy will neutraize any excess of
chalky matter engendered by eating too
much meat. 1t is also the fact that such
ripe fruits as the apple, the pear and the
plum, when taken ripe aud without sugar
diminish acidity in the stomach, rather
than provoke it. Their vegetable sauces
and Juices are converted into alkaline car
Donates, which tend to counteract acidity.

THE TUBE OF MUHJQY BROWN.
BY E. j. APPLETON.

Richardson picked up the soft little
cylinder and looked at it again.
"What did you call ltl' he asked.
Mummy brown" replied Knowlton,
taking brush from between his lips to
speak, and touching the canvas before
him with it.
Brown it undoubtedly is, )" remarked
his friend, but where does the mummy
come imp
81 In the tube, my boy" returned the
painter, half closing his eyes and putting
his head on one side to observe the effect
of his last stroke; "because it is made
of pulverized Egyptian mummies, and
it is one of the best colors we have"
Richardson put the tube back upon
the much Uttered studio table, and
whistled softly.
"Well said he, ''you may count me
out if ever | become painter, when il
comes to using dead mems bodies to
make pictures with. I'd be afraid they
would come back again %
Nonsense" said knowlton, laughing
''they are entirely too dead for anything
of that sort, you may be sure, and il
they are sensitive to feelings, they never
show it. Observe how | am using this
tube, for instance, upon this French
mans coat; do you suppose any we'll

himself clothing a foreigner in any such
manner, if he knew it2n
mo, / suppose not. The
colOring is rich, too" remarked Rich
ardson, thrusting his hands deep into his
pockets and surveying his friends work
with the eye of an uneducated critic,
though the same can't be said of the
models, judging from appearances. And
by the powers that be, Francis" he
added, suddenly, you've made that tai
fellow very good likeness of you. Did
you know itN
knowlton shrugged his shoulders.
II had an idea his face was something
like mine,' he answered; but as that
is common trick of ours, have not
given 1t a second thought. What | am
striving for is good picture, not por
traits and | must realize something
from it, too. By heavens, Richardson,
it has come to be case of dire necessity,
and that's all there is to i'll"

'That's too bad-Ive been there myself,
and then it is a very uncomfortable thing
to have hanging over one. AS long as

said. in a moment, in answer to the in
curing looks of these collected about
them. Then he got to his feet and
brushed the dust from his trousers. But,
as they picked the liieless artist carefully
up, not one among the number saw the
queer, white mark, just over the heart,
that came and went again like very old
scar.
The next morning, after hurried ar
Engagements had been made for the fun
eral by Knowlton's Bohemian friends,
Richardson had occasion to return to the
studio. The door was locked, but, with
key of his own, he let himself in with
out disturbing the awe-stricken Mrs.
McGwiginn. The body lay upon the
bed, bereath a sheet, and the early morn
ing light drifted through the broken
blinds and fell across it with an uncanny
effect The visitor went quietly to the
bed, and, turning the sheet back from
the face, looked down into the still feat
ures of his dead friend. Then he COW
cred them again and moved away. As
he passed the easel which still stood
where Knowto had last showed it in
his haste, he turned deathly pale and
caught the mantel for support.
"My God!" he cried, recoiling from
the painting as if it were alive, and
staring down at it with horror filled
eyes, Then he hurried past it and
threw open the shutters, letting flood
of light into the room. A stray bit of
early sunshine fought its way through
the CRIME covered window and crept
along the floor to where the easel stood !;
and, doing SO, it lighted upon bright
bit of metal that caught and reflected
the light into Richardson's face.
Beneath the easel, as if hiding like
comm murderer from justice, was the
heavy dirk, driven into the unexpected
floor an inch Some night wind, more
boisterous than the rest, had shaken it
from the shelf, and, plunging downward
to the floor, it had passed directly
through the painting, not an eighth of
an inch from the heart of the largest
figure on the canvas-the man in the
brown coat. --ISan Francisco Argonaut.

oGD TIN CANS.
From Their Utilization an Industry !
Has Sprung Up.

In the suburbs of great cities an in
dustry has sprung up, having for its
object the utilization of old tin cans. In
consequence these formerly despised and
useless cans have acquired sufficient
commercial value to rescue them from
back lot, dumping ground and garbage
scows.
Under the present system of street.
cleaning, the refuse of New York City is
loaded on scows from wharves located at
convenient intervals along the river
front, and then taken to sea and thrown
overheard. These wharves have double
decks, the upper projecting sufficiently to
allow the contents of cart to fall upon
the middle of the scow, and be distributed
by the trimmers, who keep the vessel on
an even keel.
The trimmers select everything of
value with the greatest care, rags, fat,
bone, metal, paper stock, ETC., being
stored on the lower deck of the wharf
The silver and jewelry form no small
part of the contractors profit, and the
total value of a scow-load is estimated at
an average of 5000.
The space between the wharf platforms
is often closed in with odds and ends.
and the interior converted into misera-
BILE habitation 10y the trmmers, men and
women who thus herd together, their
supplies being drawn from the dump.
The dumping wharves are the princi-
pal source of supply for the old tin can
industry, and a wagon load of cans can
be bought at such places for four or five
dollars.
The furnace is an old soar, boiler, into
which few sticks are thrown; the bowl
is then filed with cans, and a quart of
Kerosene poured over them and ignited.
The heat developed by the oil is not
great enough to attack the tin, but melts
the solder, which flows to the bottom of
the bowl. The solder recovered from
load of cans averages forty pounds.
After this process the tin plate scrap is
sold to make what is called "acid."
Into large open vat containing waste
acid, sulphuric or hydrochloric acid, the
scrap is thrown and allowed to remain
until the tin ia stripped from the iron
underneath. More scrap and metallic
iron is added until the solution is neu-
trail. The tin thus dissolved is used
as basis for the preparation of stan
mates or other tin compounds, and by
dyers.
The iron plate is rolled into balls for
melting, the ferrous sulphate is purified
and sold as commercial copperas, and
the remaining acid is used in repetition
OF the process. i New York Witness.
