Causing Iron to Swim,

Elisha required a stick to make the
axe of iron swim. We have never
learned the properties Of that stick.
But there is a pretty trick Of causing
a piece of iron to swim of Its own &C.
cord. Let it be half inch thick, say,
and two inches square, or have it
round, and perfectly smooth on one
side at least. Place the smooth side
against the perfectly smooth, square
end Of an open glass tube, say, an inch
and half in diameter, and hold II
there until it and the tube are lowered
into a vessel Of water to be a depth
greater than about eight times the
thickness of the iron. Remove the hand
and the iron will remain in Its place,
the upward pressure of the water pre-
venting Its sinking. This is the prin-
ciple of the iron ship.-New York

When a pugilist is knocked out 1t
isn't one round of pleasure.
How to Keen House.

With all the Injuries and pleasures
of this life, its big enjoyments and its
smaller comforts, there is an offset or
antithesis which VIC have to contend
with in the form of aches and pains.
In some way and by some means
every one mas touch Of them in
some form at some TIM, Trihing as
some Of them may be-, the risk is
that they will grow to something
greater and rack the system with con-
slant torture. There is nothing, there
fore, of this kind that we have a
right to trife with. Taken in time,
the worst forms Of pains and aches
are easily subdued and cured by the
free use of st. Jacobs Oil. No well
regulated household ought to be with
out a bottle of this great remedy for
pain. 1t is the specific virtue Of pene-
tration in st. Jacobs Oil that carries
it right to the pain spot and effects a
prompt cure even in the most painful
cases of Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Lum-
bago, Sciatica. You want it also in
the house at all times for hurts, cuts
and wounds, and the house that al
ways has it keeps up sort of insur-
ance against pain.

Late one autumn afternoon, while
Shazzar was playing with Bernlce in
her yard, they heard an cutlery such as
Tatters was wont to make when be
chased swallows or settled accounts
with some other dog.
"Thats Tatters," said Shazzar, Sure
enough, as he spoke the dog came bold.
ly round the barn into the yard.
"0h, he's dot somefn' in his mouf!
cried Bernice. "He's caught q swal-
low, I dess. Why, Tatters!" But Tat
tiers marched soberly up to her and
laid his lifeless prize down gently at
her feet. 1t was not swallow, 1t was
Mr.. Fltz For a second poor Bernice
was too dazed to cry. Then she lifted
up her voice till Norah ran out to see
who was hurting that child.
1t was then that something rose up
inside Daniel Belteshazzar. He
grabbed big stick and dealt Tatters
such blow that it knocked the dog
ten feet away, and as he picked him
self up Shazzar rushed upon him again
and beat him out of the yard.
"And If you ever come back here
again." he shouted, "Ill kill you,
deadw
Tatters fingered a moment to see If
1t could really be true, but when Shaz-
Ear threw the stick after him and
turned into the house, he sat down in
the street, lifted up bis nose and
hOwled.
Shazzar took no notice Of him, 50
with one last protesting yelp he llmped
away toward the city.
That night Shazzar ate no supper.
He guessed he had a sore throat. The
next day they buried Mr.. Fitz. When
the procession reached the burying-
ground, behind the barn, the bearers
suddenly rushed on ahead. There in
the trampled grass lay scrubby little,
dirty white dog, stone dead, with some
Of Mr.. Fitz's golden feathers still
clinging to his jaws. Daniel Belteshaz-
Ear sat down on a rock and thought 1t
over abit. Then he clapped on his hat
md started for the house, forgetting
NIL about the funeral Of Mr.. Fitz. He
begged his father to go out with him
and hunt for Tatters, and he was still
pleading when they finally tucked him
into bed.
"'Cause, daddy, 1t wasn't Tatters
that did It at all, it was that mis'able
white dog, and Tatters killed him for
1t and brought Mr.. Fitz back to us just
as carefully, and then-I-I-I-" and
50 he sobbed himself to sleep.
About month later Shazzar's man.
ma heard such a racket at the back
door that she ran to see what was
going on. Out in the yard there was a
gray mixture of boy and dog, waltzIng
together, while a whirlwinl Of little
girl circled round them. When they at
last separated themselves and set off
on foraging expedition 10 the kitch'
en-, waving joyously to her as they did
so, she noticed that the dog was lean
and hollow and ragged. But his head
was up, and the same old tail was
raised bravely to the breeze. He was
himself again, was Tatters,- Youths

GOING BYE BYE;


And it's no! for the Land Of Bye Bye
Astraddle Of papa's knee,
With two big hands for the stirrups
And two little lips for the fee.
And now we are off at a gallop
Thro' meadow and valley and wood
For visit to Peter Piper
And Little Red Riding Hood.
And maybe we'll call on the fairies
Down there in the hazel dell,
For where Papa Horsey will take us
The horsey himself can't tell.
And maybe we'll call on Miss Muffet,
And maybe-and maybe we'll come
To where one little pig went to market
And one little piggie stayed home,
But this know, that so surely
As the littlest piggie could talk,
So surely we'll nod in the saddle
And the gallop will come to a WALL
And then we will be at the stable,
And tenderly horsey will stand
While mama lovingly leads us
To the dreum.decked Lullaby Land.
Oh rapturous, radiant glamour
That aureoles vanished hours;
Oh rest for the hearts that are weary
And memories sweet as flowers
Back there in the Land Of Bye Bye
Where the romping fancies roam,
Where one little pig went to market
And one little pig stayed at home.
I travel the big world over, ,
But none of the scenes | see
Is like to the wondrous places
Where went on papa's knee.
I want to give all Of my journeys
In the wide, wide world Of men
For one hour Of that dear dead childhood
/ want to go Bye Bye again!
