Just little warm hand in mine
Just sweet little mouth to kiss;

And cup running over with bliss
Just two little shoes in a drawer.
Laid by with reverent care;
Just faded old childish portrait,
And a lock of golden hair.
Just few broken toys in a cupboard.
Just dollie all battered and torn
But a stab through my heart when

And a pain too deep to be borne.
Just two little feet run on before.
Swift to the happy home;
Just a child the threshold waiting,
And calling to mother to come.
Just a dream of joyous meeting,
And an eager welcome home"
Just two little outstretched arms.

How Anthrax Rssohed rev ZeaMnA
Mr.. J. A. Gilruth, chief government
veterinary surgeon, delivered an ad-
dress on anthrax in New Zealand, at
the annual conference of the Auckland
Agricultural Societies. He said that
few years ago it was thought that
New Zealand was the only country free
from that disease, and he believed that
New Zealand would be free from 1t to.
day had we not imported bones. In all
other parts of the world the disease
vas prevalent, and the annual loss OF
STOCK through 1t was very great, while
IL also affected man, employees in Eu-
pean woollen mills being sometimes
affected through handling the wool OF
diseased sheep. AS an example of the
way the disease was spread, few
years ago large outbreak among the
London horses was traced to some
Russian oats which had been carried
In a vessel along with some infected
skins. The disease was a dangerous
one in every way, and it was a matter
Tor extreme regret that it had ever
broken out in this colony. 1t was
caused by microbe, which possessed

to be applied for some time to have the
same effect. This was because the
mlcrobe formed in it's body a "spore,"
or egg, which prevented the action OF
the chemical on the vital germ, and
1t was because of this "spore' that
the germ remained virulent for so
long.
When he first came to the colony he
was assured there was no anthrax in
the colony, and he was informed that
all bones imported came from boiling
down works, where healthy animals
had been received. In August 1895,
however, there occurred in the Waika-
to sudden and unaccountable NOR
tally of cows on a certain farm. A
butcher skinned one of two animals,
hung the skins on a fence and carried
portions Of the carcaSseS through a
field to give to some pigs. All these
pigs died, and the cattle that came
and licked the grass around the skins
and along the way by which the car
casses were conveyed died also. Three
men engaged in cutting up the beasts
fell i'll, and all these cases were found
to be anthrax, diagnosis Of which he
received most emphatic confederation
In Europe on his recent trip. This
would show how the disease spread.
Everything pointed to the Introduction
OF the disease by bonedust, the dis
eased animals having been feeding on
a field of turnips MANFRED with bone
dust, and 1t was then decided to pre-
vent the Importation of bones not SUBJ
mitted to temperature of 35 degrees
above boiling point.

Destruction of the sabbath.

When these women, who know more
about the destructive influence of
drink than most of us-not from eX-
perience, thank God-but from OBJ
.servation-raise their voices against
an open saloon on Sunday they have a
greater right to be heard than a
whole cathedral full of bishops and
vested clergy who raise their voices
for the destruction Of the Sabbath
There are three distinct tendencies
in church work manifest in the east.
One of these was the waning of cleri-
cal influenceand the ascendance of lay
influences in the congregations The
second tendency was in favor of young
ministers in preference to old ones.
and the third the growing influence Of

When to Slau-hter a Pig.

When to slaughter a pig must de-
pend on what we have to feed him, and
the price at which feed is selling in the
market. The price of pork also cuts
some figure, but not SO much as the
price Of feed. For instance. this year
in some localities pig feed is so high
in price that every pound of additional
weight put on costs ten cents, which is
far above the highest market price
possible. Where the hog raiser lives
near a creamery and can get skim
milk at a low figure, or near a cheese
factory and can get whey for prac-
tically nothing, it often pays to keep
the pigs till they are of good size, even
when other feeds are high. This year
good many pigs are being got rid
of as soon as they attain a weight of
$50 pounds.

Briauettes from Wood Waste.

The manufacture and carbonization
of briquettes, made from waste 1um-

at the Skonvik Sawmills, in Sweden.
An analysis Of the briquettes at the
Royal Technical High School show
that the briquette coal is pure char
coal, free from extraneous matter and
possessing great solidity and density.
A hectoliter of briquette coal, con-
tanning "a per cent of water, weighs
1913 kilos, as compared with 1873 kilos

Temple for Chicago LIZ Dor Unions.

a labor temple in which all the la
hor unions OF Chicago may have com
modious and suitable quarters is
made possible by an offer to President
James H. Bowman of the Chicago Fed
Grafton of Labor, by a firm of real
estate dealers.
The real estate firm offers in a letter
sent to Mr.. Bowman to erect a large
and beautiful building for the eXclu-
sive use of labor organizations and
containing several halls suitable for
balls and mass meetings. The condi-
lions on which this offer is made are
simple. 1t is requested that the labor
unions get together and decide how
much room each one will have to be
guaranteed by the Chicago Federation
of Labor.
The lease to the property will be
drawn up in such a manner that the
unions will have no interference from
outsiders In other words, the build
ing will practically be their own for
as many years as the lease runs.
