THE DREAM OF CHEMISTRY.

Hopes in Time to Prodnce Pa!atable Beef
 steaks Out of tho Elements
 The electrician has one dream and the social philosopher has another. But the chemist has also a vision of the how he would solve the problems of comfort and happiness which have been put to the human race:
 ''The chemist hopes for a synthetic beefsteak, for a chemical loaf, for a cup of coffee made, like his sodawater extracts, out of inorganic matter. He wants to see the day when synthetic climate shall envelop the earth, when the rainmaker shall be prophet and man shall hold the string to the unruly bags of Aeolus.
 ''In that day the food and raiment of mankind will be produced in the crucibles of the chemist. Once more verdure will clothe the fields now de- faced by human toil, and the shaggy woods will spring anew on the de- spoiled slopes of the hills. There will be no tilling or harvest, no slaughter ing of tame beasts. Out of the original elements chemistry will compound chops and outlets, knead the dough and brew ale.
 ''The battle has already been partly won in the case of medicines and drugs. The wine at the table d'hote never saw the vineyard. The prize fruit flowers of the drug store are innocent of the orchard and garden. Synthetic chem istry is yet young. It has made great advances in the production of glycerine and sugar. It has four thousand devo- tees in this country who hope to make the dream reality"

A SONG FOR EVERY DAY.

The weary worlds CHEEKY place
For those with hearts to win 1t.
Thank God, there's not human lace
But has some laughter in 1T!
7 he soul that comes with honest mlrth
Though health and fortune vary, !.
Brings back the childhood of the earH
And keeps it sound and merry.
The plodding worlds an eager place
For those with wit to use 1t.
Where all are hidden to the race,
Let him who dares refuse it!
The simplest task the hand can try,
The dullest round of duty,
knowledge can amply glorify,
And art can crown with beauty
A busy, bonny, kindly place,
is this rough world of ours,
For those who love and work apace,
And fill the hands with flowers.
TO kind and just and grateful hearts
The present grace is given
TO find heaven in themselves,
And find themselves in heaven.
