GONE BUT NOT FORGOTTEN.

A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is Stilled:
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be filled.
God in His wisdom has recalled
The boon His love had given,
And though the body slumbers here
The soul is safe in Heaven.

Caring for Consumptives.

SaIINS iSA
There are now four special methods
by which consumptive Workingmen In
the United States are being cared for.
In such cities as Albany, Elmira and
Binghamton, N. Y, the unions support
a separate pavilion or hospital. In
cities like Hartford, New Britain and
South Manchester, Conn.,, the work
men contribute towards the mainte-
nance of a fund for the care of con-
sumptives. The employers also con-
tribute to these funds. There are also
two national sanatoria for the treat
ment of tuberculosis owned and oper-
ated by labor unions; one by the In
ternational Typographical union. and
the other by the Printing Freshmen
and Assistants union. In Massachil-
sets, Illinois and elsewhere large cor
porations and manufacturers have
agreed voluntarily to care for all their
consumptive employees for limited
length of time.

Tree Destroyers.

Porcupines are good climbers. and
when unable to get enough apples
wind-blown to the ground, swarm a
tree and cut down the finest bearing
limbs as quickly and neatly as beav-
er can sever the trunk of a young
hemlock. Besides that, when other
food is scarce they nibble the bark
off young apple trees, and can destroy
a newly planted orchard in a short
time. They also are great enemy to
the young spruce, but why they cut
them is a mystery, as it is not found
that they even eat the Ienderest
shoots.
