IN CHOOSING CANNED GOODS.
Look for n slight Depression In the
End of the Can,

In buying tin-canned vegetables or
fruits, those only should be selected that
have n slight depression In the end OF
the can. This, by experts is accepted
as proof that the contents Of the can are
in proper condition. If tho end of the
can is raised or bulged, reject IL, as that
is a proof that the contents Of the can
were not heated sufficiently at the time
OF sealing, or that in the past or present
they have fermented. If cans are or
dered by the dozen, the members OF the
household who inspect the supplies should
return all cans having such. an ap-
pearance. Lead-poisoning is not to be
feared from good brands of timed goods,
II the contents OF the cans are emptied
as soon as opened into eathenware or
glass. When glass Jars are used. keep
the fruit or vegetables in them from con-
tact with the rubber band. Though there
is little danger from their contact. thers
have. 1t is said, been a few cases in
which poisoning is thought to have beer
caused by chemical changes in the rub
Der when in touch with acid.

The Object of Education.

A characteristic instance was given at
a dinner party lately Of the present-day
tendency for children to patronize their
parents. At preparatory school the
children were told to write down what
they thought to be the object of educa-
ton. one small boys wrote: "rhe
object Of education Is TO be able to talk
for your father and mother when you
go abroad" and another boy, doubtless
remembering the oft-repeated reflection
at home, when he had fallen into some
scrape. that 1.-THE holidays would soon
be over, and he would be safely back at
school," wrote. with unconscious cynic-
ism, 1.-THE object Of education Is to &c.
you out OF your parents way"

That Old Song.


'Tis strange that in that old, old song,
There's something sadly sweet.
As If a broken heart had wrought
Upon its measured beat.
IT'S strange that music could disturb
Such depths of sullen pain,
This sense of drear unworthiness-
OF living all in vain.
IT'S strange; and yet, perhaps, It's well;
The soul at times must wake,
And waves from Gods unknown sea,
Their subtle force must break.
How many chords are tensely strung
Upon this harp called life,
How many wondrous notes are born
Apart from worldly strife.
How many dreams are brightly shaped,
What hopes the fancy weaves,
How many castles lift their walls,
How many 'garnered sheaves.
How many crimson lights flash out
Like grand and glowing stars,
How many buds OF promise bloom
Behind the futures bars.
IT'S strange that in that old, old song,
There's something sadly sweet,
AS II n broken heart had wrought
Upon its measured beat.
