TO JOHN l. SLEEPER.

Why do you cling unto life my brotherY Why
do you cling unto life, sayY
Why do you weep when the yoke and fettcrs OF
flesh from dear one drop away
You know this world Is u house OF sorrow, you
know this world Is IA house Of sin;
That pain is the Dead sea fruit OF pleasure and
will be ever, as 1t hath been
Why, then, cling unto life, when over the blue,
transpcuOus rim afar
Shiueth the walls of the Wondrous City, where
only blessings and blisscs areY
Why do you beat your hands with passion and
storm the sky with your plea and prayer
Whenever passes " stainless spirit forever out
Of your clasp and cnrc2
You say he goes to glad, brave kingdom
over n vague and voicclcss sea,
Where never Il last goodby is spoken and never
and never u grave shall be,
And whore from rapture to perfect rapture,
with crown and Tyre, he scars and sings,
The chrism of Christ upon his forehead, the
glory of God upon his wings.
If thought rs you think, my brother, If ! be
lieved in better sphere
Beyond the grass and the golden lilies that
blossom over dead man here,
| would tingle with great strange gladness
whenever friend OF mine should die;
| would robe him in festal raiment and
would kiss him gay goodby.
And, OH when unto me came the hour-the
miracle hour that comes to all
Never a cypress branch nor blossom should
throw its gloom on my gorgeous pail.
At my funeral should be dancing and dainty
feasting at fcstal board
Should be singing and iests and laughter and
gurgle of wine in the glasses poured
And iubilant bells should rock the stceples
when was borne to the gay, bright grave,
And rattle Of drums and trill of trumpet,
blend in a glad thanksgiving stave.

TIN CANS AND OLD SHOES.
They Well Reward the Italians Who Rake
Them out of the Ash Heaps.

Them out of the Ash Heaps.
On every dumping ground where the
city contractors of Brooklyn place their
working hard leveling the heaps, as
load after load is-deposited, and care
fully placing the tomato cans and other
castoff pieces of tinware in piles by
themselves. The contractors do not OBJ
ject if the householders put old cans
among the ashes, for this insures care
full leveling by the Italians at the
dumping grounds at no expense to the
contractors. The revenue from these
cans that are collected by the hundreds
and thousands is matter of surprise to
most persons. A two horse load brings
from SO to So 1t takes several days Of
hard work to get big wagon load, but
the Italians don seem to mind the labor
of it, for there is money Immediately in
sight as the piles of tin cans grow.
They watch jealousy their picking
grounds and sometimes make special
arrangements with the contractors for
the privilege of scraping and raking the
ash heaps over.
The tin cans are sold to men with
furnaces, who place them in big cal
dron, and under a slow fire melt the tin
aud solder and run that part off for fu-
ture use and sale. Almost all the tin
and solder is saved by this process and
is salable for use in making more cans
for preserving vegetables. The heat is
then made intense, and the iron that re-
mains is melted and cast into sash
weights. The demand for these old cans
is said to be greater than the supply,
and one of the most valuable of the
scavenger privileges that the Italians in
large cities assume is that of working
over an ash dump.
The Italians also collect odd bits of
leather in heaps Old shoes of a large
size are always special delight to
them. A wagon load of them is always
salable for use in making lampblack.
There are other sources of profit in ash
heaps, but the chief sources of revenue
to those who pull them to pieces are the
cans and the shoes. New York Sun.

An expert in nervous disorders in
Paris recommended to an American gen
tleman cure for insomnia which was
tried with such success that the patient
has prescribed it to many of his friends.
1t is simply to keep your eyes open when
you want to go to sleep and cannot. A
person whose brain is too active will
sometimes close the eyes and vainly
endeavor to sleep. The very closing
OF the eyes seems to concentrate the
menal faculties on business affairs and
other distractions. The theory of the
French physician is that if the victim of
insomnia will fix his eyes upon some
CLEAN of light, some shadow, or even
on the darkness itself, he can relieve his
mind from thoughts that perplex it and
divert attention from himself Try the
experiment when You are sleepless and
see how unconsciously your eyes will
close and your thoughts begin to take
possession of you. Struggle to keen
them open and fixed upon an object,
either real or imaginary, and before you
are aware of it the struggle will have
ended and sleep will be victorious.

A Long Life.

Sir Benjamin Richardson, NJ D., Of
England, thinks that the normal period
of human life is about 10 years, and
that seven ont of ten average people
could live that long if they lived in the
right way. They should cultivate a
spirit of serene cheerfulness under all
circumstances and should learn to like
physical exercise in a scientifio way. No
man, he says, need be particularly alb
stemious in regard to any article of food,
for the secret of long life does not lie
there. A happy disposition, plenty of
sleep, temperate qualification of all
the natural appetites, and the right kind
Of physical exercises, will insure Ion
gevity to most people New York

A Swansea tradesman, being troubled
with a headache, bought two medicinal
tablets and put them in his vest pocket.
When it was time to take tablet, he
opened his mouth, shut his eyes and
gulped one down. He was relieved of
his headache and went on his way re-
joicing. Later in the day he found the
two tablets in his pocket. When he dis
covered half a sovereign missing, the
pains in his head shifted to his stomach.

New York correspondent 1t seems likely
to stay here. Wherever and however it
goes it is successful 1t dominates dress
skirts and beautiful bodices. 1t is the
keynote to the present style in costume.
One reason for this is that in every form
it is becoming to nearly everybody. The
full box plated skirt is especially CRATE
full to unsymmetrioal figures, and the
hanging box plat of the fashionable
bodice hides many an otherwise obvious
defect OF course to the beautiful all
things are beautiful, but even here the

in case of lack of air sulphur will melt
and but a small proportion Of it will
burn When the fruit has been sui
blurred the trays of fruit should be
spread out on the ground to dry. In
sun-drying there are two methods of
finishing the product. One IS by par
TALLY drying in the sun and then to
finish by dumping in piles from one to
two feet deep, to cure, in a room with
screens on the windows and doors to
keep out the moth-the room should
also be kept dark if possible. The fruit
SHOULD be stirred every two or three
DAYS and all specimens that are too
damp to cure properly can be removed
to trays. In this way the fruit will
cure gradrrS lily and as it gets dryer
can be put in bins five or six feet deep.
Fruit cured in this way will not dry
away as much as that cured entirely in
the sun. and will gain from 20 to % per
cent in weight over that dried in the
sun.
1t should be packed in paper-lined

care should be exercised to see that

moths, and as a consequence fruit so
treated will have but few worms

A NICE WAY TO PRESERVE PEARS

Here is a particularly nice recipe for
preserving pears. Pare the fruit and drop
it into cold water to prevent it from be
coming discolored. When all the fruit
is pared weigh it. Put the parings into
a preserving kettle or some other kettle
over which a steamer can be placed. Add
to the parings three pints of water for
every four pounds Of fruit. When the
water begins to boil put on the steamer,
which should contain enough pears to
cover the bottom. Watch the fruit and
as soon as it becomes tender take it up
and put in fresh supply. When all the
pears have been cooked, take off the
steamer and strain the liquor from the
parings. To each quart add one pint of
sugar. Put on the fire in the preserving
kettle. and when it begins to boil skim
carefully. Now add the pears and sim
mer for twenty minutes. Put the fruit
in glass jars and cover with hot syrup.
Close the jars at once. A small piece of
ginger root in each jar adds flavor to the
fruit. The Flemish Beauties or Sheldons
are the best pears to use.-F'rom the
