Painter Frost.

Old Painter Frost is queer old wight,
And he works away on the window glass;
His castles and trees and rocks all white
He paints as the furious billiards pass.
There are flowers and stars and faces
wrought
BY old man Frost in the dead of night;
When the sun shines cold on his canvas
straight
His paintings hang in their proper light.
The vanished strokes of the old man Frost
Are seen no more in the homes of men;
But the grand old painter is never lost
His art is long he will come again.
He will come again with his frozen brush,
And perhaps will make us a grounding
sketch,
Or weather prophet in hoary plush
Who has promised the s'gentle spring. to
fetch.

Excitement in Dutch Village.

One night in October we were
startled by the ringing of the alarm
bells. We expected to find fire, but
the peasants, as they tumbled out of
their doors, shouted, "The COWS!
The cows (Which brings us back to
a curious bit of local history and GUS
tom. AS is well known, the Zuyder
Zee is kept back from these villages
by great dixie that connects sand
dune with sand-dune. During the
low water of summer the sea retires
for long distance, and the uncovered
shore becomes fine pasturage, giving
the farmers a chance 10 convert their
own mcager grass-patchcs into hay
for the winter. Unfortunately, this
provision Of nature csnnot be enjoyed
by all. 1t is bcqucst to these villages
from conntcss who died in the year
1912; to speak exactly, each descend
AIT Of res idcnt of the villages of
I.arcn. BIaricum and Huizen, of that
date, has Inherited the right to pasture
seven cows.
This privilege cannot BIO bought or
sold; it can be acquired only from an
ancestor of tic village of that date.
When the SPRING comes, the cattle are
driven to the pastures, where they re-
main for the summer. Their owners
commonly live miles away, and it
neccssitatcs two daily milking-trips,
on winch they jog o.er in cart with
the cans and pals at midday and mid
night. The pastures are hundreds of
acres in extent, and for long time il
puzzled US how an owncr conld lind

covered that they have trained their
animals to come 10 CERTAIN place at
| the same hour each day and night by
always carrying to them some dainty
in the shape of salt and potatoes. Dur
! ing the summer thesc pastures are
used without danger, but in the
! autumn the succession Of northcrly
gales in conjunction with high tide,
will put the land many feet under
water. Sometimes the inundation !,
| SO sudden that the cattlc are caught

Passaic City record., 1893-03-18

So, at the beginning of September,
watchmen are always stationed on the
dixie to keep sharp lookout upon the
sea. The church towers of the VIII
lagos are all in sight of one another.
and the Huizen tower is in close COM
munication with the dixie. With a
rise of the sea, the man on the dixie
hangs up lantern; if the sea rises
more, he hangs up two, which is
danger signal; but if it rises fast,
three, which says. "Great danger;
come quickly" Similar lights are
flashed from tower to tower by watch
ers in the belfries, and at three lights
the alarm-bells are rung. This was
the alarm we heard, and in ten min
utes the roads were thronged with
people on foot and on horse back,
rushing to the rescue of the herds.
This year none were drowned; but it
it was perilous work and the peasants
heaved long sighs of relief as they told
us the details and announced that the
cows were safe in the stables for the
next six months. - Century.

Electric Heating.

Electricity generated for heating or
for any other purpose must be pro-
duced at the cost OF the expenditure
of some other form of energy, such
as the burning of coal or the force of
falling water. Az the latter form of
power is hardly available for use in
New York, it follows that if electric
heating is to become commercial
commercial phase Of life IN that city
current will be supplied to consumers
from central stations III which coal is
burned under the boilers, precisely
similar TO existing plants for the sup
ply of light and power. The conver-
sion and transmission of heat by this
process is not economical, and current
from coal burning stations in sufficient
quantities for heating could only be
used by the wealthy, TO whom its con-
vcmencc and cleanliness would COM
mend it. 1t is apparent, however,
that the "coal barons" would have
nearly as much to say about tho sup
ply of fuel to such stations as to in
dividual consumers at prcscat, all
| though it is probable that the mere
cost Of coal and labor would be pro-
portionatcly reduced by the use of
cheaper grades Of fuel and by central
! ization. Doubtless electric heating
has a great future, but at present il
! seems to be principally available in
localities where water power can be
utilized in the prime movers. - West

0ld Friends.

There are no friends ike old friends,
And none so good and true;
We greet them when we meet them,
AS roses greet the dew;
No other friends are dearer,
Though born of kindred mould;
And while we prize the new ones,
We treasure more the old.
There are no friends like old friends,
To help us with the load
That all must bear who journey
Ger life's uneven road;
And when unconquered sorrows
The weary hours invest
The kindly words of old friends
Are always found the best.
There are no friends like old friends,
Where'er we dwell and roam;--
In lands beyond the ocean,
or near the bounds of home;
And when they smile to gladden.,
Or sometimes frown to guide,
We fondly wish those old friends
Were always by our side.
There are no friends like old friends,
To calm our frequent fears,
When shadows fall and deepen
Through life's declining years;
And when our faltering footsteps
Approach the Great Divine,
Well long to meet the old friends
Who wait the other side.

Windmills in Europe.

American windmills, like almost
every other product of American in
genuity and skill, constitute type
quite different from the older forms
original in Europe and the East. The
latter all belong to the same species,
consisting usually of four arms, set at
angles of sc degrees, with sails COW
ering but small fraction of the cir
Gle described in their revolution. The
American mills consist of numerous
radial arms, and have sails set SO
closely together that, practically, the
whole circle is covered.
These sails are commonly wooden
Stats or blades, tapering from end to
end, and 80 set that they may inter-
cept the whole current of air passing
inside the outer circle described by
their tips. They are SO inclined as to
defect the air as it passes among them,
and absorb a considerable portion of
its energy. Thus is formed a 'sscrew, !"
somewhat resembling that of steam
vessel, but having a much larger
number of blades. 1t is capable of
giving vastly more power. and has a
much higher efficiency than the old
mill; though for a stated power much
smaller and lighter, and more s'busi-
ness-liKe" in appearance.
Naturally this improved constrnc-
ton, for which credit is due to the
American mechanic, is displacing its
older rival, even III the home of the
latter, and the "American" mill is
now to be seen all over the world

a detachment of cavalry from Fort
Steele. Lieut.. French, as brave q
man as ever wore the uniform, as
sumed command of all when the civil
ians were overtaken.
In Just a week-and it was an ex-
citing season-the pursuing party
landed on Flotow in camp at evening.
The reds were in wild and isolated
mountain ravine, and had neglected
to place sentries. Though surprised,
the Indians made gallant fight, but
the assaulting force was the stronger
in numbers and was simply determined
to win.
A full score of dead and dying In.
dians soon lay within fifty yards OF
the central tepee. Great was the de-
light Of both citizens and soldiers to
find Flotow just recovering from the
shock caused by bullet which had
grazcd his side. In ten minutes he
was all right physically, but his men-
tai distress was deep. His chagrin
threw him into silent rage. He
only glared at his captors and held
his tongue. Flotow was made pri-
soner of war. He was allowed to ride
his own pony, and had an escort OF
four men.
At night, after the first days home
ward march, the captive chief was
given a place and blanket beside the
campfire. His guard was six citizens
and an equal number of regulars.
Lieut.. French made the squad quite a
speech. He said it was beneath the
dignity of an American soldier to
maltreat captive foe. Abuse OF
Flotow would result in discipline OF
him who did it. To allow a prisoner
to escape was an ineffaceable blot on
the honor of the army.
81 charge you,'' said the officer, "to
treat the big Injun with all the con-
sideration due prisoner Of war, but
if he makes a move to escape, shoot
him down without hesitation. Re
member, let there be no escape"
1t was pretty well understood among
the men that they were to put FlotoW
out of the way before daylight.
About eleven o'clock the camp was
quiet. A fun-loving veteran, who
had been with Grant in the Wilder
ness and who had fought Indians on
Platte, thrust his bayonet in the fire
and let it come to white heat. Flo
tow was sitting with his head between
his knees and doing. The soldier
fished his bayonet from the embers
with couple of twigs, and very care
fully laid it across the sleeping
chiefs feet. In twinkling the steel
sank into the moccasined toes. Flo
tow, with shrek of pain, jumped
high into the air. Five or six shots
broke the stiffness, and the dead body
of red-skinned fiend fell across the
campfire. The corporal of the guard
reported that the prisoner had made a
wild jump, as though to break for the
bushes. Lieutenant French compli-
mented the men on their watchfulness.

How Mail Clerks Assist the Memory.

How Mail Clerks Assist the Memory.
The railway postal clerks have
unique method for learning the routes
on which post-offices are located.
Take, for example, the State of Penn
sylvania, in which there are over 5000
offices. The prospective mail distrib-
utter buys quantity of blank cards
about the size of the ordinary visiting
card-and on each of these he writes
the name of an Office. On the back
of the card he writes the name of the
route by which the office is served
with its mail. Taking in hand pack
of these cards--say from so to 100
he goes over them one after another
stndiously, looking at the back each
each time and getting the name and
route clearly associated in his mind.
The second time he goes through the
pack he finds that he knows the half
of the routes by reading the name of
the office. 1t is dull student who,
upon going over pack OF cards a
dozen times, does not know them
thoroughly. The method is SO simple
and such an aid to memorizing that it
is adopted by all railway mail clerks.
By it clerks have been known TO menu
orize State like Pennsylvania inside
Of two months.
On all large rontes clerks work but
half time, the other half being devoted
to rest and study. The mail clerk at
home, continually reminded of coming
examinations, carries his cards
wherever he goes, coming them over
at every opportunity. One demon-
strative clerk on the New York and
Pittsbnrg r. P. O. is famed for hav-
ing learned the State of Ohio in four
DAYS. AS he shuffied over his cards
he walked from garret to cellar, and
vice versa, from dawn until the shades
of twilight fell. On the fourth day
he went to the examiners office and
separated Ohio without an error.
1t is related that tile wife of postal
clerk adopted the card method for in
creasing her vocabulary in French. On
one side of the cards she wrote the
French word and on the other the
English equivalent to be learned.
Another lady, hearing of this, used
the same system successfully for
learning mythology, placing the word
"Mars," for instance, OH one side of
the card and "wa" On the other. The
method has so many advantages over
the old and tedious way Of learning
from the pages of book that it might
be utilized with advantage by teachers
in search Of new methods of impart-
ing instruction. Philadelphia Rec
