PROPERLY PACKED ICE.

sible, then shave over the upper sur
face of all the cakes with a carpen-
ter's adze. The shavings of ice are
swept into the crevices between
cakes. When freezing cold, a little
water is sprin1led over the whole sur
face to cement the layer solidly to-
gether.
AS each layer is completed, the
sawdust should be filled in around
the sides, level with the top, and sol
idly tamped down. Allow no sawdust
to remain on top of the various lay
ers until the ice house is filled. The
cut shows the sixth layer in and ready
for the sawdust Ice is preserved
by being packed away from the air.
As hot weather comes on the ice will
settle some. Be sure to keep the
sawdust tamped down around the
sides frequently during early sum-
mer, and see that no alrhOles form.
When the ice is all packed in, cover
with 10 to Is inches of sawdust. Leave
the gables open more or less to al
low free circulation of air over the
ioq. l hope that this description, with
sketch, of our own successful harvest
ing and storing of ice in a cheap pole
frame ice house, will encourage many
farmers to decide to have some ice

then everything blended into black.
The lantern was completely covered
by the sweater and emitted only a
very faint light.
Suddenly my heart gave a great
throb, for over to my right thought
I saw a shadow move. 1t could not
be friend, or he would have spoken;
surely then it must be that black
devil. For a moment could not stir,
but riveted my eyes upon the silent,
retreating figure. Then scarcely
knowing what I did, or why, I was
possessed with the spirit of panic;
struggled frantically to escape
from my perilous position; but
while more sane and orderly efforts
might have been successful, the
many twists and turns caught my
shoulders under pipe fixture, and
I was wedged fast.
Even that faint fading light must
have shown my face as picture of
struggling terror, for saw that
form again emerge from the other
shadows and plunge toward me on
hands and knees.
1t was he! 7 heard his inhuman
chucllle; the whites of his eyes rolled
and cleaned hideously Then, slow
ly. with a malevolent glance toward
me and a CHASTITY laugh, he drew the
sweater along from off the lantern.
Freed from its smothering cover, the
flames leaped out, lighting every cor
ner of the little compartment, and
outlining the savage figure of the
negro. Undoubtedly he knew Of an

THE BIRDS SENTINEL.
rhe Blue Heron Is Implicitly Trusted
by His Relations When
on Guard.

One of natures sharpest sentinels
is the blue heron. Not only does he
stand guard for himself and immedi-
ate relatives, but he is unwittingly a
sentry for other birds. Ducks and
geese use him, and have often won
dered why sportsmen, particularly
duck and geese hunters, do not en-
ploy a decoy resembling a heron, or
crane, as they are often enormously
called. l can assure the readers OF
Forest and Stream that the common
wooden or canvas decoy is not to DE
compared with neatly mounted blue
heron as a lure for the feathered
gobblers, says a writer in Forest and
Stream.
Not far from where I boarded one
autumn was a reedy, muddy lake,
perfect paradise for water fowl.
Where the wood road bordered on the
lake was a small brook that often
afforded a good bag of game.
would reach the brook some morn
ings perfectly certain that no one
had preceded me, yet would not hear
a solitary quack. would also notice
that there would not be heron on
guard. At other times the reeds
would be alive, and I could not get
D shot, for the blue heron sentry
would give the alarm, spread his
broad wings in his slow, clumsy fash
ion, and ducks, geese and all would
follow him out of reach. Repeated
disappointments of this kind showed
me that Willingly or not the ducks
were making good use of the long
legs and keen eyes Of the heron lie
was able to see over the rushes while
their vision was completely cut off.
When he was inclined to visit the
brook to get a frog or fish fo1
breakfast, they gathered round him,
feeling perfectly secure so long as
he was throwing his searchlight
clances over the reeds and into the
bushes. When his heronship took oc-
casion to visit other scenes not
living paddle would disturb the placid
eddy at the mouth of the brook.
I watched the situation carefully
and found the heron one morning
entirely alone. I sat down where
could get a good view without be-
ing seen, and awaited developments.
A flock of ducks came winging their
way down the lake, casting glances
on all sides. as if uncertain where TO
20. They were swinging their long
line for a sandy spit away down at
the southwest corner of the lake
when the heron saw them and ut
tered one of his lonely yet cOmpla-
cent calls. Immediately the ducks
swerved and circled into the cane
where the heron was on guard and
settled down quite contentedly
around their sentinel. The thought
struck me to use the heron for
decoy. I drew a bead on the guard,
and a couple of days after he again
visited the lake, only this time car
ried him under my arm and his eyes
were made of glass and his body
of excelsior. I placed him on a tus-
sock as natural looking as possible.
and had all the shooting wanted.
Whenever I desired water fowl all
l had to do was to put my heron in
position, and had not long to wait
before he was surrounded.

and ordinary circumstances keep
them sufficiently in check About
90 years ago William Jamrach, who
had made a fortune, was returning
from India with a cargo of elephants,
black panthers, tigers, cheetahs,
leopards, hyenas, apes, serpents,
.orang-outangs and rare BIRDS of I'll
kinds. He valued the lot at $1,000.
The Agra-that was the name of the
ship he was coming home on-was
swinging at her anchor off Point de
Gale, Ceylon. Suddenly there was
heard a fearful crash that gave pause
to everything. The chattering, the
screaming, the growing and the roar
ing of the animals stopped dead. The
startled men looked for just mo-
ment straight in the face of each
other Then the exclamation: Great
heavens, she sinking!' was followed
by a clamor that just blotted out
the stiffness. At one and the same
moment both man and beast seemed
to realize the situation, and at one
and the same moment they all began
to exhibit symptoms of the alarm
they felt. In the case of the men
they were free to devise means Of
escape and they Immediately busted
themselves accordingly. In the case
of the animals, they were confined
and had to undergo the horror of
facing a death they were powerless
to avert. II is natural for an animal
to die in combat with an enemy, and
while the combat lasts there is hope
of escape. There is no facing OF
death here: the animal is otherwise
ngaged-engaged. too, in a natural
way. But with the animals cooped
up on the Agra, with never an enemy
10 fight, it was far different, and
they gave vent to cries of unbounded
despair. The elephants made a noise,
too. but there was not one touch of
despair there. It was the business

THE FOUNT OF YOUTH.

The fount of youth has oft been sought
Since days Of long ago.
And oft in fancy men have seen
Its living waters flow.
Through desert, swamp and wilderness
The search has been pursued,
In hope that by the magic fount
Youths charms might be renewed.
But men have turned from that vain quest
Their hopes forever crushed;
For though they searched through all the
world
No magic fountain gushed.
And men resigned themselves to age
That robbed them of their grace,
That sapped their strength and thickly
spread
Times wrinkles on the face.
In later years mems thoughts have turned
To plans for longer life,
And in elixirs they have sought
New strength for daily strife.
And oft It's heralded abroad
That scientist or sage
Has finally evolved a plan
To stay the blight of age
But men grow old, and women, too.
AS in the days Of yore,
For no eliXirs they have tried
Their youthful charms restore.
And as they can't deceive themselves
some seek to hide the truth,
And dye and bleach their hair and paint
On cheeks the hues of youth.
The fount of youth is in each heart,
And those who keep it pure
win longer hold the charms of youth
And length of life secure
And when at last that fountain fails,
And old age on them steals,
They'll bear it well because no man
Is older than he feels.

but my arms were pinned close; I
could only move my fingers aim

With a look Of savage triumph, he
cautiously lifted the blazing mass by
means of the sweater and allowed the
flames to play around the rafters.
I saw the cobwebs sputter, the little
splinters on the rafters caught and
burned like tiny matches.
In imagination I could smell my
singed hair and my burning flesh.

SCHOOL AND CHURCH.

OF the 1903 bishops Of the Roman
Catholic church 100 hold sees in the
British empire.
Among the Sioux Indians there are
now % churches, constituting the Da-
kota Indian presbytery. These are in
North and South Dakota, Nebraska
and Montana. Three years ago there
we're 1881 members of these churches,
with 10 native ministers, one lay
preacher and two assistants.
The Royal Victoria college for wom-
en-, with Queen Victoria's statue stand
ing in the front of the building, opened
last November, and both are the gift
of Lord Strathcona to McGill univer-
Bity, Montreal, and to the women of
Canada The building and endowment
is a memorial of the diamond jubilee
of the queen.
As a result of the energetic protest
of hundreds of Presbyterians whose
ancestors worshiped in the old Gov
enanter Church of Scotland, Pennsyl-
vania, the queer little edifice is to be
preserved. The church was built at
the beginning of the nineteenth CEN
fury, but has not been used as house
of worship for 40 years.
The first ecclesiastical appoint
ment made by King Edward VII. was
ihe nomination of Archdeacon Ste
vens to be bishop suffragan in the dio-
cese OF st. Adams. Before 1894 the
archdeacon was rural dean of Barking
and honorary canon of st. Adams.
From 1896. to 1897 he was grand chap
lain of the English freemasons.
The Protestant foreign missionary
societies of the United States, of Can
ada, the West Indies, Great Britain,
continental Europe, Asia and Aus
tralia employ 1896 missionaries, men
and women, and II, 137 native helpers;
maintain 10,9S5 churches with nearly
100000 communicates, whose contri-
buttons last year were 100000 plus.
Seventeen million, sixty thousand dol
lars were given to foreign missions.
One of the most prominent Baptist
preachers in the vicinity of New York
has made it practice in all his pas
torates to write his resignation with
in a week of his entrance upon new
field, sign, seal and deliver it to the
proper official with the remark:
"There, now! Never ask me for my
resignation. Whenever you want me
to go just break open the envelope,
write in date to the document and
offer it to the congregation"

Pushing Hanks lantern before ma

Pushing Hanks lantern before ne. |
attempted to set it upon solid ground
on the other side Of the wall, but found
to my surprise that the excavation was
at least is inches lower than the
ground where we lay. As reached far
out l knew l had missed my calculation
and felt the lantern slip from my fin
gers. / could not regraspit or course
it did not stay right side up. hastily
started to squeeze myself through the
hole. in order to set it upright. but the
opening was too small to pass my shout
ders. and soon the little blue and yell
low flames were shooting back into the
kerosene.
Just above this fame was the oil
soaked floor of the new dollhouse. 1t
was about noon. and $50 men were
probably eating in their cells on the
second and third floors; there were
200 more in the old building. Would
the guards discover the fire in time
10 get out the men? Who would let
them out? Would there not be panic
and men running ike sheep over the
fields? Worst OF all. what would be
the fate Of Pauline among these des-
peradoes? | closed my eyes, trying
to shut out the mental picture. Then
calculated the cost of rewards to be
paid for escGp ped convicts, andlastly the
probable cost of property destroyed
and all this through my carclessness.
But l would not live to witness the
AWFUL consequences. Iresolyed to stay
there until thc fire was out, or to per-
ish in my struggle against it.
In the Pickering light of orr single
lantern, the two anxious faces of the
silenced men stood out strangely
against the background of nurEy
gloom.
"Biondie,' my voice sounded strange
and mufied, get out Of here as fast
as you can. Go around through the
new dollhouse; have Shafter let you
through the cast trap door; then you
two crawl through on the other side
as fast as you can; you may be in time
to put out the lanterni"
"Now, Hanks, you 60 to the turn
key; tell him to get all the men out
Of their cells. I'll stay here to watch
the fire; besides, l must wait to di-
rect Blonde"
The men quickly disappeared in the
darkness, and was alone. l think [
prayed a little, for this fire light was
the last light l ever expected to see.
Then, as in answer to my prayer, an
idea shot into consciousness-throw
my heavy sweater over the lantern
and smother the fame. .
Holding the sweater before me, l
thrust my arms into the hole-one,
two, it swung and landed squarely;
my aim was true; this would hold
the fire till help came, or possibly ex-
tinguish it.
The ease with which 1 got into the
hole this time made me believe that
without coat and sweater L could
crawl through.
Holding my arms close to my sides,
| started to work my shoulders into
the hole. 1t was much easier than
before, and in a minute or two my
head projected beyond. Now l
stopped for a moments rest, and to
ook around me- l could see but a
short distance into. the gloom. and
