Work In a Pie Factory L. on the

To properly describe the processes OF
baking pumpkin pies would require n
skilled in the technlcalities OF the art
This is the way 1t looks to a mere man:
First, the coarse yellow rind is remo..
ed, and then the pumpkin is cut opeo
and the seeds taken out. after which
the two halves are thoroughly washed.
Then a husky lad takes a sort OF cleav.
er and cuts the pumpkin into large
pieces, which r fed into a steam
chopping machine and reduced to small
fragments. These are placed In a huge
copper boiler capable OF holding per.
haps twenty-five gallons. After the
boiling has been completed n pasty
mixture Of eggs. milk, sugar. cinnamon
and other spices and condiments is
added and well stirred In. and then the
yellow mass Is ready to be filled into
the skeleton pies. The crust Is pre-
pared In another department, where
the dough is mixed. rolled and placed
In the pans ready to receive the I'LL
Ing. If any n thinks that piemaking
Is an easy and effemInate employment
he should visit a pie bakery and in
spect the muscles developed on the
arms of expert pie crust mixers aud
rollers. They would be creditable to a
trained athlete INT would put many a
mill worker and blacksmith to the
blush. Finally the pies are placed on
racks and showed into huge ovens that
resemble nothing else SO much as the
kilns used for burning brick. These
kilns are constructed In any size de-
sired, with a capacity OF anywhere
from fifty up to several hundred at a.
time, while they can be reflled every
bali hour or less.-Pacifc Monthly.

PECULIAR EYES.

The Organ of Sight of the Spider
and the snnn.
The next time sou catch a spider try
to find the eight shiny little eyes ut the
anterior end. some above aud some put
under the edge OF what we may imag.
Inc to be Its forehead. To examine
these parts to the best advantage hold
the spider In tweezers. or 1t may be
better to use a spider killed by being
dropped into a bottle of diluted alcohol.
These eight eyes vary In arrangement
and in relative size in various species
of spiders-in some they may be ar
ranged in two rows. In other in three;
some may be very small and others
large and prominent. and so on-but
there they are, rather poor eyes, near
sighted, looking In several directions at
once, and the spider. which can never
shut any of them. is sure to see every
thing that approaches unless 1t is
asleep. In which case the sight Is dead.
For some purposes 1t may be conven.
lent to have eyes that roll up and dis
appear at the approach of danger. And
these are exactly what the snail has.
situated at the end OF two leag and
sensitive palpi. or feelers. When all is
quiet their owner extends these organs
and you can see at their tips small
round knobs upon which the eyes are
placed. But IL you touch one OF the
palpi or even Jar the snail a little the
eyes begin to back into these feelers
as the tip Of a glove finger may be
turned in. and they no longer see any
danger that may be lurking at hand.
