Not So Black as He's Painted.

The crow, it seems, has been a
much abused bird. A special investi-
cation set on foot by the department
of Agriculture leads to this conclu-
sion, it having been found that the
crow is of more benefit than injury
to the farmer. In the course OF the
investigation 1000 crows we're dis
sected and it was found that corn
formed only twenty. five per cent. of
the food found in the stomachs.
Most of this was waste grain of no
commercial value. On the other
hand, it was found that injurious in
sects, such as grasshoppers, May
beetles and cut worms formed over
twenty-six per cent. of the entire
food, and furthermore crows destroy
mice, rabbits and other injurious
rodents. The crow has really been
misunderstood He earns the right
to live, and the farmers should at
once pull down their scarecrows and
seek to encourage the presence of the

Just returned from hunting buckets down
the bay along the shore,
Fell to nodding, almost mapping, Suddenly
there came tapping,
Some unearthly, ribald rapping, tapping at
the White House door.
4'o Oh, come off, he loudly uttered. Don't
be knocking at the door.
Go away and come no morel"
Hed been thinking all that evening, dream,
ing, hoping, and believing
That the prophets are deeeiving, when they
say his day is DER;
When they prophesy his party will not be so
In the campaign that is coming, in the days
of'96:
What an awful, awful fix
Harkl Again there comes a hutter, and a
rap upon the shutter,
And without single mutter from the strang
er as before,
In the window did a duck peep, fresh from
marshy pond and muck heap,
Far from the dreary coast of Deaware's
duck-haunted shore,
Flew upon the musty bust of Jefferson above
the door;
Perched and sat- and nothing more.
"Tel me-" cried the man in terror, il
there's anything severer
Than thy presence here this weary, dreary
night in store for me-
Tell me, if thou be a prophet, as to third term

Compressed Wood.

The advance in the price of some Of
the hard woods required in various
special branches of trade has directed
attention to the possibility of producing
some less expensive material rs Il sub
stitute, and in one branch Of trade this
has been carried out with very success
ful results. For the manufacture OF
loom shuttles boXwood has hitherto
been very largely used, but the price
of tnis kind OF wood has become n
most prohibitive. and it has hecn found
that by compression of cheaper classes
of timber-teak being about the most
suitable for this purpose-a substitute
meeting all the requirements can be OBJ
tanned. For carrying out this purpose
Manchester firm has lust completed a
powerful hydraulic press to be used
in cOmpressing timber for loom shut
ties.
This press consists of a strong cast
iron top and bottom, with four steel
columns and a steel cylinder, with a
lrEge ram. In the center of this ram
IS ti.Jed a similar one, with rec
tangular head, fitting into die which
IS placed on the top of the large ram.
The timber is put into this die, and a
pressure Of fourteen tons per square
inch is applied. The pressure is then
relieved, and the large ram dcScends
The top pressure block, which fits the
die. is then removed, and the small ram,
rising, pushes the timber out at the top
OF the die. The timber so treated IS
made very dense and uniform, and so
close grained that it is capable of taking
a very high finish. For the manufacture
of shuttles it has been found rs good as
lockwood. and there is no doubt it will
be applied to other branches ofindustry
where expensive hard woods have to be
used

therefore, that the genius of the Ameri-

articles designed to guarantee that
when you are in your grave, in case you
should come to life, you can tell the
cemetery authorities and be resurrect-
ed. I saw such a machine yesterday.
1t consisted of a long tube running
down through the coffin to the nose Of
the supposed corpse. Down this tube
fresh air was constantly forced by
means Of a pinwheel attachment over
the grave. On the forehead of the sup
posed corpse is placed a large button
of wood, adjusted in sucn a way that in
case the supposed corpse should move
h the grave a sort Of fOghorn signal
will be blown up above the ground and
