THE ROAD TO YESTERDAY.

Close by the path of every day
The winding roadway lies;
We breathe the incense of the dawn
Beneath the solemn skies,
And 10, cloud curtains lift and bring
Old scenes before our eyes.
A sound Of bell on summer eve,
A breath of violet's bloom,
When touch of little elinging hand
Comes with the faint perfume
And then the Road to Yesterday
Breaks shining through the gloom,
We catch a glimpse of snowy peaks
Above a Swallowed vale;
Or down some mountains sloping side
There bloom the wild flowers pale;
Or on the far horizon falls
light on sinking sail.
Along the Road to Yesterday
Lie palaces of light
And windy caves in barren lands
Whereof no man has sight,
And strange moons round a stranger eartl
Draw wild tides In the night,
The road leads over sunken seas
And stretch of desert sands;
The stars of long past ages shine
Ger wondr0us twilight lands;
And there are long forgotten friends
Who once have elasped our hands,
M E. Buhler, in New York Sun.

Rattlesnakes a Mystery.

Although we have known the rattle
snake for a long time, says the Wash
ington Pathfinder, we do not yet know
just what its poison is. DR.. John Mar
shall, professor of chemistry at the Uni
yersity of Pennsylvania, in a talk before
group of physicians at Philadelphia
gave the result of FIVE years research,
the object of which was TO identify the
active toxic principle in the rattlesnakes
venom. While he regards the discovery
as almost made, he says frankly that he
has not as yet succeeded. He did know.
however. that most of the ancient myths
regarding the RATHER have no basis in
science. He says. for instance, that
there is no antidote for the rattler's poi
son and that the popular methods Of
treatment are all wrong and do no good.
He says that whisky is not an antidote,
and the only good it can do is in some
cases to prevent the patient dying from
fright. that a snake cannot inject
enough of the poison to kill an ordinary
adult and that deaths very seldom occur
from snake bites. The best known treat
ment, he says, is to suck the wound
removing as much as possible Of the
venom. Cutting off the fangs docs nc

The large plant to DE erected at
Wells. Michigan, for the extraction of
fannie acid from hemlock bark, repre-
sents an improvement in the process of
tanning which has established economies
in the manufacture of leather and en-
abled tanners to sell their product at
lower figures. Formerly the taR-bark
was shipped in sail and steam vessels
to the various tanneries, where it was
ground up and subjected to treatment
for the extraction of the fannie acid
while the process of tanning was at the
same time in progress. BY extracting
the tannic acid close to the hemlock for
ests the cost of handling and shipping
the bark is saved. Most of the big
tanneries of the country have already
adjusted themselves to the new order
of things, and the old bark process is
now in vogue only where sole and belt
ing leather are made.

portant OF this prospective business is
1000 tons, which the Chicago. Burling-

quantities. In the export rail market
sales of 5000 tons are reported by the
United States Steel corporation to the

amounting to 1000 tons. The largest re-

for coke oven plant at Gary has also

The Iron Trade Review is authority

hand, stock of pig iron are very low

steel is not correspondingly large The
Steel Corporation is now running at 81
per cent. of its maximum capacity. Or
ders for structural steel placed during
July approximate 10000 tons. of which
the American Bridge company booked

There are still 100000 idle freight cars
in the United States, but traffic tonnage
has been increasing so rapidly of late
that officials of the American Railway
Association are now eXerting themselves
with a view TO preventing possible car
shortage in the fall. This is a pointer
for people who are weighing the proba-

ness promises to improve. The eondi-
ton of the crops is all that could be de-
sired, and another hopeful sign is the
rush of orders for structural iron. Furth-
ermore, Congress has reached the point
at which action will be taken on the tar
if. There is no expectation that the new
tariff law will satisfy everybody. But
it will end uncertainty, and by ending
uncertainty it will make solid ground
upon which business men can stand

thing considered the business situation
is more encouraging than it has been at
any time since the crash of October
