A BACHELOR’S REVERIE,

Oh, a home is a terribie handicap To a soul that fain would be free!

It has captured many a prisoned chap But it shall never shackle me.

Instead of the cares I would have to face In the same old rounds each day

Oh, give me a room in a lodging place Anda lunch at a cance cafe!

I never need hurry to catch my car, For T haven't a place to go,

And early or late no meals I mar, For I'm dining alone, you know.

The hands of the clock I never chase, For I drift in an easy way,

Since I sleep in a transient lodging place And lanch at a chance cafe.

A brother of mine—I loved him well— Went wrong in his early years, For he married and bought him a place to dwell (Oh, the thought of it brings me tears!) And there he has lived—what a pitifal ecase— And there he will likely stay, While I still sleep in a lodging place And ianch at a chance cafe.

I sometimes think of his wife and child And the vine at his cottage door, While I dream of the perfect lips that smiled, But they smile for me no more. 4nd I muse, “If the saint with the angel face Had answered me ‘Yes’ that day, Would I sleep in a transient iodging place Or lanch at a chance cafe?”’ —Nashville Banner.

INDIAN ‘NK,

—

| Yke Superior Kinds Are Used In GO

and Not Exported,

An interesting account of the manufac- ture of the so called Indian ink, which. :4 made only in the Anhui province of Chi- ba, is given by Mr. Fraser, our consul at Wuku, on the Yang-tse, in his trade re- port. Itis more correctly called China ink —encre de Chine—and from Anhui it goss to every part of China and all over the world. In 1895 about two tons of it, val- ued at £564, were exported from Shanghai The materials with which this beautiful black ink is made are fesainuin oF colza oil, or the oil expressed from the poisonous seeds of a tree exten- sively cultivated in the Yang tse valley, end also well known in Japan. To this varnish and pork fat are added. The lamp- biack snade by the combustion of these substances is classed according to the ma- terials and the grade of fineness and also according to the time taken over the proo- ess of combustion. The paste made of this lampblack has some glue added and is beaten on wooden anvils with steel bam - mers, ‘lwo good hammerers can prepare in a day 80 pieces, each weighing half a pound. A certain quantify of musk of the musk deer, or of Baloos camphor, for scenting, and gold leaver, varying from 20 to 160 to the pound, are added to give « metallic haster.

The materials thus prepared are molded in molds ef carved wood and dried, which takes abeut 20 days in fine weather, and adorned with Chinese characters in gild- ing. About 30 or 32 average sized sticks of ink goto the pound. The price varies from 2s. or less per pound to as much ag £7, there being over a dozen different grades. Nearly all writing is done by the natives throughout China, Japan, Korea, Tenquin and Anam with this China ink, rubbed down on a stone ink slab and ap- plied with a paintbrush of gable, fox or rabbit hair, set in a bamboo holder, and when not in use carefrlly covered with a protecting brass cap. The superior kinds of this ink appear to be used in China and not exported. — Manufacturer.

**Molly,’’ said one of the friends of this young critic, *‘does your father ever preach the same sermon twice?’’

“I think perhaps he does,’’ returned Molly cautiously, ‘‘but I think he talks loud and soft in different places the second time, so it doesn’t sound the same at all.’’ —Youth’s Companion.

Dead Bees.

A Germantown oorrespondent waiters: ‘Can yon tell me if the pink Japan, Judas tree, which was in bloom a eonple of weeks ago, emits a fluid poisonous to bees aeyi other insects? I have seen it staéed that such was the case. That in- eects were attracted by the bright blos- soms, but that the latter emitted an opi- ate and the dead insects could be seen ou the ground about the bush.’’

Dead bees can be found in abundance under any early flowering plant that they freyuent. It is not that they are poisoned; but simply that their time hascome. The life of any bee does not reach twelve months,
