ern Sawmill.
Up from the yellowish- brown depths
OF the slow-moving river, flowing SO
steadily on its way to the sea, comes a
huge. dark-brown thing with shining,
dripping coat. 1t is our log, entering
upon its last stage. 1t passes at once
up long incline called the "slit'-a
trench of wood about eight inches deep
and two feet wide at the top, SO hoi-
lowed out that the largest log will lie
sn it securely as it is being drawn up
the incline by the stout chains with
which the slit is equipped. Projecting
pieces of steel on this chain serve to
keep the log steady, it's great weight
causing it to sink upon these pieces of
steel, which are like sharp teeth. A
workman, standing at the side of the
slit, by means of a lever throws up two
powerful steel-pointed arms which lift
the logs out of the slit and throw them
upon tables, from which they are rolled
down to the carriage which leads to the
saws. When the log reaches the car
Tiage it is thrown upon the framework

Two men stand on the moving carriage,
and at signal from the head sawyer,

When the log has been adjusted it
rapidly advances to the saw, and in
very few seconds it's water-soaked sides

Not Her billy.

BY reason of similarity of names
grief-stricken woman Frustrated her
self over the body of man who was
seriously injured and reclining on cot
in one of the wards of the city hospital.
She believed the man to be her hus-
band, and as her trembling gaze
41weIled on the back of his head, which
was gashed and bloody, she bemoaned
his fate, and with tears coursing down
her cheeks addressed him with every
endearing epithet her bursting heart
dictated. The woman's voice had the
effect of rousing the patient and he
turned. She caught glimpse of his
face and then her sorrow and tears
were dried at once and her lamentations
ceased. With an indignant sweep of
her skirts she arose, exclaiming:
"That amt my Billy. What, that
ngly mug!" and she bounced out of the
ward and out of the hospital.-Cincin-
