Of your sweet face, the sound of your
dear voice dissipated all my resolutions.

Then gradually the impression grew up
on me that you were no longer bound by

times he could have sworn she loved him
still, then again that look of dislike To his
presence, tinged. too, with fear, swept
over her face, and he was fain to doubt.
Tell me, Jenny, when you gave that
promise"
The day you called for the first time
after your return from England, she an
swered i'll low voice.
Because YOU thought that | no longer

manned SO cold and unconcerncd. and by
your Indifference drove me TO the belief
that you had forgotten all that passed
between us so short time before, |

that | have held YOU in my arms, and
kissed you as a man only kisses the wo-
man he loves. and hopes to make his
wife. The aching sense of loss which was

openings are usually made under sur

PRESERVING WOOD.
a Cheap Process Now Being Employed in
Sutherland.

\ simple, effective and cheap way Of
preserving wood from decay is practiced
in Switzerland in the preparation of
posts for the telegraph service. A square
tank having a capacity of some 200 gal
Ions, is supported at height of twenty
five feet above the ground by means of a
light skeleton tower built of wood. \
pipe drops from the bottom of the tank
10 within thirty inches of the ground,
where it is connected with a cluster of
flexible branches, each ending with a cap
having an Orifice in the center. Each
cap IS clamped on to the larger end Of
the pole in such a manner that no liquid
can escape from the pipe except by pass
ing into the wood. The poles are ar
ranged parallel with one another, slOp-
ing doWnwards, and troughs under both
ends 10 catch drippings. When all is
ready a solution of sulphate Of copper,
which has been prepared in the tank,
is allowed TO descend the pine. The
pressure produced by the fall is sufficient
to drive the solution, gradually. Of
course, right through the poles from end
To end. When the operation is ended and
the posts dried the whole of the fiber
of the wood remains permeated with the

The Demand for Ivory is Responsible for

WILL LIGHT UP CURVES.
Something New in the Way OF Locomo'
five HEADLIGHTS.

An ingenious machinist in New York
city is credited with having constructed
an automatic headlight for railway en-
gines. In going around sharp curry :,
headlights on locomotives. being made
stationary, throw the light straight
ahead. instead Of throwing il 50 mat II
follows the track. The headlight is
made to hang on two pivots. one on top,
the framework that holds it being fast
encd to the smokestack and the bottom
one to the boiler head. From the bot
tom of the headlight also two chains
run to the ends of an extending arm,
which latter is connected by a rod that
runs to the pilot wheels truck. Thus,
as the pilot wheels strike a curve, the
outside wheel FORCES ahead. Of course,
and this movement works the rod and
chain just enough 10 move the headlight
so that the reflection is east directly
ahead on the track

Talk about nerve. A Caribou dentist
tells the Journal that woman came. to
his rooms one day lately, and, showing
him an aching tooth. asked if it would
come out hard. The dentist, after an
inspection, replied that it would be an
easy tooth TO pull: whereupon the suf-
ferer remarked: Wal, I'm glad, A
blacksmith promised to pull the tooth
with a pair of pinchers, and | guess III!
let him do the job, if the tooth Is comm
easy" And away she went, leaving an
astonished and bewildered dentist to
gaze at her in wonder as she started for
the blacksmith's shop.-Lewiston (Me)
