According to the New York Ledger
reconstructed adage reads, Eternal
vigilance is the price of safety of val
liable property, and in pursuance of
this idea an ingenious inventor has
devised an electric safe, which is made
with an electric lining, consisting of
thin metal sheets and strips of such
delicacy that the slightest rupture will
close the circuit and give the alarm.
The thrust of pin point will pene-
trate this metal. The casing is of steel
and is built inside of a cover, which is
also lined with thin metal. There are
several sets of bolts, which are so az
ranged that a considerable length Of
time is required to move them. The
slightest displacement starts off the
alarm and long before the burglar can
get to the treasure i'll the heart of the
safe the neighborhood gets altogether
too warm for him.

the water in his tub and started to the

The Englishman helped her down,
but she thanked him and walked away.
Her manner implied that she would
make her own Investigations. She
wandered among the boxes and the
tubs and trays, hazarding a word to
the washers here and there. Most OF
them did not understand her. She
came up finally beside Cameron's tub
and spoke to him. The on-lookers
fancied that she might be asking how
many oranges he had cleaned that day.
Alicia, half dozen feet away at the
end of the tray, was unconcerned. So

He started to protest, little out

''Please don't make q scene," she
said, anxiously. "It won't do any
good. You ought to know me we'll
enough to know that"
Cameron reflected that Alicia would
have screamed, and cried, aud stabbed,
perhaps, but would have forgiven.
That was her Latin blood. This girl
was AngloSaxon. She would never
forgive, but neither would she ever
forget. He understood-he was of
her race. So he kept silence.
Did you tell her you would marry
her?"
yes" He did not attempt to
evade.
"Then you will keep the promise,
will you not?"
He did not answer.

finished. eff you think you should,

The cool possessors of hot young
blood parted after the manner of the
well-bred of their kind. The girl
drove away through the country OF
romance. She was in Elysian fields
and her heart and soul were in hades,
but no one knew that.

stood beside him, patiently waiting
for him to speak. When he did, he
said:

''lhe growth of the iron industry in
the South during the past few years
has been truly phenomenal. For the
year 1896 the total output of iron in
this section amounted to 1888, 235
tons; for the current year it will ex-
ceed 1000, 600 tons. When the South.
ern iron manufacturers first sent their
product to Pennsylvania, says the
New Orleans Times Democrat. ''it was
thought most extraordinary that they
should be able to invade that territory.
At the present time, however, they
ship to England at least ten per cent.
of their product. Southern iron, like
Southern cotton, now finds its way to
all parts of the globe, and some of it
has recently been used in the manu-
tactGrs Of basic steel by the Martin
process. 1t has been possible to lay it
down IN England at 81 80 per ton, and
it can be manufactured for even less.

one-third of the total iron product of
the country will come this year from
the South, the largest share of this in.
dustry it has ever had. Nor will its
field be limited to iron. for the metal
is now being extensively converted
into steel, and it is predicted that the
South will ultimately furnish the stee
plates for our men of war, which i
has been found impossible to get il
the East on reasonable terms. Much
of the Southern iron is being con
verted elsewhere into steel. and tn,

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.


Most game birds and animals, be-
cause of life of ceaseless activity, do
not take on fat, and such should be
larded, or cooked with slices of bacon
or salt pork placed on them. Do not
serve birds with heads on and un-
drawn, as is quite generally practised-
the latter point being relic of saw
agery, the former an offense to SEN
sitive nerves. 1t is pleasanter to en-
Joy bit of choice flesh without being
so forsibly reminded that we are eat

THE GOLDEN SIDE,

There's many a rest on the road of life,
If we could only stop to take it:
And many Il tone from the better land,
II the querulous heart would wake it
To the sunny soil that is full of hope,
And whose beautiful trust ne'er faileth.
The grass is green and flowers are bright
Though the wintry storm prevaileth.
Better to hope, though the clouds hang low
And to keep the eyes still lifted
For the sweet blue sky will soon peer
through,
When the ominous clouds are rifted.
There was never n night without a day,
Nora evening without Il morning;
And the darkest hour, the proyerb goes,
Is the hour before the dawning.

There is many gem In the path OF life,
Which we pass in idle PLEASURE
That is richer far than iewelled crown,
Or the miser's boarded treasure.
1t may be the love of a little child,
Or a mothers prayer to heaven,
Or only beggars grateful thanks
For cup of water given.
Better to weave in the web of life
a bright and golden filling,
And do Gods will with a ready heart,
And hands that are swift and willing,
Than to snap She delicate silver threads
OF curious lives asunder
And then blame heaven for the tangled
ends.
And sit, and grieve, and wonder.

THREE deaths have occurred in this
shooting and the hunting season is not
vet open. The casualties and fatalities
will increase from this time on until the
season closes. This may easily be pre-
vented by the exercise of ordinary pru-
dence. No one who is careless should
be allowed in the company of others on a
hunting expedition. Guns should never
be loaded while parties are On their way
to the hunting place. No shot should be
fired In the direction of anyone if he is
within range. To endanger the life o;
any one for a chance shot st game is al
most murderous intent.
