PERSPECTIVE VIEW.

wood, for the dampness and stain are
trying, at best, and joints should be
open as little as possible. All closets
and cupboards should be built from the
floor to the ceiling without the slight
est opening above or below The doors
should cover just as much of the front
as possible, leaving room, only for "a
narrow jambs and a shall sc in
order that when they are opened the
entire exterior should be exposed to
view. Earthenware tubs are cheaper
in the long run than wooden ones, al
though their initial cost is considerably
greater. But if wooden ones must be
used, be sure they are put in most
carefully, as under the best of con-
tractors they give more trouble than
any other kitchen fillment
The drain pipe and traps below
should clear the floor so that one may
easily clean around them. The coping
should go close to the wall and rising
from it should be a high splash board,
while quarter round beading should
cover the joint between the two. The
hot water boiler should not be damned
tightly into the corner, but should
stand few inches from the wall. This
will permit it to be cleaned on all sides
an important consideration if the boil
er be of copper. Above all things do
not stint money in laying the kitchen
floor; this must be constantly scrubbed
and if the wood checks and splinters
the task is heart breaking. Only the
highest grades Of Georgia pine should
be used, in narrow strips, and it should
have frequent dressing. It is no econ
omy to lay a cheap floor with the idea
Of depending upon a covering of oil
cloth or other similar material.
A very common mistake is made in
putting in a sink that is too small
and in providing no place for the
draining of dishes, sink is never toe

The answer was always the same; IT
am watching, I am watching! Lie
still for while and rest!"
The times for resting grew longer
and the times for waking short.
The sun, sending his last shafts Of
light through the leaves one late af-
ternoon, touched the eyes so often
closed, and they opened at his kiss.
sis it sunset?" she asked "Take me-
up, mamma. I have not said good
night to the robins in SO very long"
Tenderly the mother lifted her, while
the sweet breath of the meadow came
up on the breeze, and the leaves were
quivering in the golden light. The
red-breasted robin was winging his
way home; the brown mother was
grooming a slumber song to her nest.
The child stretched out her hands, the
radiance clarifying face and hair
"Good-night, goodnight, my birdlings!
Mamma, see how the sun goes down!
Twill be so eautiful-to-morrow
think they will not stay! The head
dropped YEARLY on the pillow that
night. "You will wake me-so early
mamma, dearv'
The stars shone and paled, the gray
light stole slowly back again, and the
faint, faint blue to the sky. And in
the early morning One, long-awaited
came, and two went out into the sun
rise, into the hush of the sweet young
day-leaving a void in the old white
house that nothing on earth could fill
The one who was left stood very still
at the window, and looked through
the apple boughs with eyes that saw
them not. There was no need now
that love should hide the pain. AS
she turned away her glance fell on the
robins nest. Lo! it was empty-only
a broken she'll lay where five birdlings
had nestled beneath the mothers
wings. Then the tears came to eyes
that had not wept, and a great thanks
giving to an aching heart-for her
darling, who had awakened carly"
and for the robins, who had waited to
fly with her.

THE SHEEP OF LEBANON.
They Are Fattened Like the Famou
Geese of Strasburg.

They Are Fattened Like the Famous
Geese of Strasburg.
Harry Fem, the artist, has written
for the St. Nicholas an account of his
visit to the famous cedars of Lebanon,
which place is also noted for it's silk.
Mr.. Fem says: Wherever a handful
of earth can be made to rest upon a
ledge, there mulberry plant grows.
1t is a picturesque and thrilling sight
to see a boy lowered by rope over the
precipice, carrying a big basket of
earth and cuttings of mulberry twigs
to plant in his hanging garden. The
crop of leaves, fodder for the worms, is
gathered in the same way. By such
patient and dangerous industry have
these hardy mountaineers been able
to make their wilderness of rock bios
som into brightly colored silks. Not a
single leaf is left on the trees by the
time the voracious worms get ready to
spin their cocoons, but a second crop
comes on later, and a curious use is
made of that. The tree-owner pur-
chases one of those queer big-tailed
Syrian sheep, the tail of which weighs
twenty pounds when at the full matu-
rity of it's fairness; and then strange
stufting process begins, not unlike the
fattening of the Strasburg geese
When the sheep can eat no more the
women of the house feed it; and it is
no uncommon sight to see woman
going out to make an afternoon call
leading her sheep by a string, and
carrying a basket of mulberry leaves
on her arm. Having arrived at he,
friends house, she squats on the
ground, rolls a ball of mulberry leaves
in her right hand, and slips it into the
sheep S mouth, then works the Sleeps
jaw UP and down with the other hanC
till she thinks the mouthful has beer
cheWed enough, when she thrusts i
down the throat of the unfortunate
animal. The funny part Of the bust
ness is that probably haf-a-dozen COS
sips of the village are seated around
the yard, all engaged in the same
operation. Of course the sheep gel
immensely fat, and that is the object
for at the killing time the fat is tried
out and put into jars, as meat for the
winter
The Cook County herald. [volume] (Grand Marais, Minn.) 1893-1909, 1897-05-22

In her excitement she spoke SO fast
that the mate-robin heard, and stop
ped short, with a long straw in his
bill, which was to serve as founda-
ton for, the house. He rolled his
round eyes awhile, then turned and
looked at his wife, but she was hop
ping about with the utmost unconcern:
SO after some reflection, he, too, went
to work. ''Oh!" breathed the little
girl, with long sigh of relief, che is
going to stay, after all. I thought
had scared him away"
The robins did not go, however, and
in some mysterious way it came to
be an understood thing that they
should build their nest below the win
dow, and that the little girl, and often
the sweet lady, too, should watch The
shy wife might have told you that
some of the shreds woven into the
snug home had been found hanging
conveniently on the twigs, as though
they had fallen from the window, this,
not to mention an ever-ready supply
OF crumbs, only waiting to be gathered
When no one was at hand In the bird
world, as in ours, fortune distributes
her favors unevenly.
When the bright-eyed husband re-
membered how many of his friends
had to support their families from the
ash-barrels, there was puffed feeling
in his heart which he did not try to
SUPPRESS

SO time went on, and by and by the
birds nest hung complete. The little
girl had waited as patiently as the
builders had worked, and their Joy
was one. "They also serve who only
stand and watt" great Milton said
they, too, perhaps, who only love and
| wait
Mamma, mamma, there will be
nestlings now, and the old birds will
| teach them to fly. I have longed to
see it all my life, but I could not go to
them, you know, and SO they have
come to me-"
The mother noted the faint tinge on
the cheek, the bright look in the eye,
and blessed the robins in her heart.
eyes, they have come to you, my
bird-like to like-and you shall see
them fly"
But birdlings do not grow in a day,
and the child watched from the great
wheel-chair with patience born of suf-
fering, and life of pain-watched I'M
til five round eggs lay in the nest,
tinted with heavens own blue.
At last-oh, the JOY of it!-the blue
shells broke, and five strange, soft
things, with great eyes and yellow
bills, nestled under the mother wings
nestled and cuddled until the wings
would hardly cover them, and the nest
seemed all too small. The brown
mothers heart was bursting with joy
for thof rnott0r Co.
er's-but she kept her love to herself
and it warmed the birdlings, while his
ran over in one continual song from
the top of the tree. The little girl
looked like a guardian spirit from
above.
my birds, my birds" she whisper
ed, over her clasped hands; my very,
very ownr'
The color that had come with the
robins slowly faded from cheek and
eye-as the birdlings in the nest grew
stronger, the one in the old house
grew weaker, and still the days went
by. The father-robin sobered down
with five wide mouths to feed. the
mother had to stretch her wings a lit
tie further every night to keep the
nestlings in. The apple buds had long
since swelled into blossoms, the BIOS
SONS had flown off on the wind in
scented showers, leaving the small,
green balls that were to be apples in
the far-off fall, and the leaves had
