A waking between rest and rest:
An insects trail along the sand:
A gems bright Hash upon tho hand:
A wave line traced on oceans shore.

A breath upon frosted pane,
A moment warmed. then chilled again:
The shadow OF q cloud that stays
Until obscured by passing haze.

Pulling Power Of Men and Animate.
Interesting test" were recently made
to determine the respective pulling
power of horses. men and elephants.
Two horses weighing 1000 pounds
each together pulled also pounds. or
$50 pounds more than their combined
weight One elephant weighing 10000
pounds pulled $3.50 pounds. or $3.50
pounds less than its weight. Fifty
men. aggregating 1850 pounds In
weight, pulled $3.50 pounds. or just as
much as the single elephant; but. like
the horses, they pulled more than their
own weight. One hundred men pulled
