Cork or Other Material.
United States Local Inspector Cap
tain Frank Bulger, assisted by Cap
tain James Guthrie, has just finished
a test of tule life Dreservers. The
first lots were twelve years old and
we're condemned and taken from the
river steamer Captain Weber. They
were placed in fresh water on August
81. at 3 D. m, and taken out yester-
day at %. m.,- after having fioated
twenty-four pounds weight each for
the whole of that time. The new
ones, weighing three and a quarter
pounds, fioated thirty-six pounds for
ninety-six hours, and twenty-seven
and a half pounds for the same pc
riod. One of these, after having
supported twenty-four pounds for
ninety-six hours in the water. was
dried and supported thirty-tw) and
three-quarter pounds dead weight and
stood four and a half inches out of
water. Twenty-four pounds is the
weight required by the regulations to
be supported. The regulation weight
for the British Board of Trade is
only fourteen pounds. Hence Brit
ish life oreservers are not allowed on
American vessels. 1t is estimated that
a man weighs seven and half pounds
in salt water.

CHRISTMAS ON THE FARM.
BY FRANK BEARD.


If only were poet and could write in tuneful
rhyme .
with the graceful words the poets use to
charm,
would be prepared to tell you of the happy,
When, boy. roamed about my fathers farm.
could tell you of the old. familiar scenes of
which time nor change can cause me to forget,
The barn-yard and the meadow, and the corn
For the memories of my childhood haunt me
yet.
could tell you of my brothers. and my little
Companions i s Of the joyous days of yore;
OF things We used to talk about and things we
In the days that will return again no more.
OF all the happy seasons we children held most
The one whose coming brought US greatest
Was the & merry. merry Christmas time, the best
With its jolly games, and stockings fnll of toys.
And, o, the Christmas dinner Belteshazzar's
Meier tempted mortal appetite so sore;
It seemed the more we ate Of II ourappetite IN
Until there was no room for any more.
o, wish that it were possible to turn old Time
By some enchantment, or some magic charm,
And 1. a little boy again, might hear the welcome
That summoned us to dinner at the farm.
1 have feasted at great bauquets and ate what
OF the rarest dishes skillful cooks display.
But the luxuries provided never tasted half so
AS the dinner in the farmhouse Christmas day
