We'll walk in the sweet posy garden out there, Where mconlight and starlight are streaming, And the flowers and the birds are filling the air With the fragrance and musie of dreaming. There'll be no little, tired out boy to undress, No questions of cares to perplex you. There'll be no little bruises or bumps to caress, Nor patching of stockings to vex you. For I'll rock you away on the silver dew stream And sing you asleep whem you're weary, ° And no one shall know of our beautiful dream But you and your own little dearie. And when I am tired I’ nestle my head In the bosom that soothed me so often, And the wide awake siars shall sing in my stead A song which my Creaming shall soften. So, mother, my love, let me take your dear hand And away through the starlight we’ll wan- der, Away through the mist to the beautiful land, The dreamiand that’s waiting out yonder. —Eugene Field, OPIUM SMOKING, The Paraphernalia Necessary to Enjoy the Noxious Drug. The method of smoking opium is not known to the average citizen, and when he detects a peculiar smell about Chinese laundries he does not suspect that it comes from the opium pipe smeked probably in the next room. There are plenty of people who think that the long stemmed pipes smoked by the laundrymen in front of their shops are filled with opium, and that it is the sum and substance of the process. They know nothing of lamps, yen hoks, and like paraphernalia nesessary to enjoy the noxiousdrug. The small pipes smoked by the Chinamen contain Chinese tobacco, stronger than the American product, but substantially the same. The “‘layout’’ for the smoking of opium consists first of a large stem, made of bamboo. This stem is between 2}4 and 8 inches in circumference. Almost midway of the stem sets a Jarge clay bow! with only 8 small hole, such as would be made by a large darning needle, upon the top. Then there is a small lamp, whieh burns peanut. or Olive ol]; then the yen hok, about the. shape of a darning meedle, to cook tha opium with, and other NHke tnstruments- for cleaning the pipe, and last the opium itself in a small jar ar tol. All these articles may be found on sale in at least one Chinese store in this city.. They are received from a large importing house in Philadelphia, which supplies:the whole south with these articles. The opium looks very much like the crude licorice whieh is used for sweetening chewing tobacoa.. It comes to tha mer- chants in large oans, weighing from one ta ten pounds, and. in the different qualities costs from $10. to $808 pound. It js re~ tailed over the counters out of a, shaving mug, covered with paper, to keap, it clean, and ladled owt with a mintature butter paddle. When a Chinaman desires to pur- chase opium, he brings in a toi and desig- nates in weight or money the amount he desires. The merchant then oarefully weighs the toi ina pair of scales made from a small bamboo rod, balanced by a string tied in the middle. The toi is held upon a small piece of copper, tied upon one end. The exact weight of this is ascertained by meving a small copper weight along the beam. Then it is placed so much farther down, according to marks cut upon the hamboo, and the opium is gathered up in alump upon the paddle and skillfully dropped into the toi. It is balanced to the fraction of a grain, and an expert in this line of business can judge almost exactly the weight desired each time.— Washington Post. ls } > SSA.

Tt is said that timber cannot be prop- erly seasoned by smokingy. The cells of woody fiber are only a thousandth of an inch long. Some kinds of wood: require eight years for effective seasoning. It is possible in same cases to assist the process of seasoning by dissolving the sap of wood by immersion in water. The beauty of the birdseye maple erises from the conéprtions of its fibers. The cause of this; peculiarity is un- known. A cubic foot of the best English oak when green weighs 71 pounds 10 ounces; when soasoned, the wood is re- duced to 48 povnds 8 ounces. Experienced lnumbermen say that in the process of seasoning wood should be occasionally repiled and decayed or de- fective pieces removed, lest they infect the others. The durability of wood does not, 33 some suppose, depend on its weight. Larch, one of the lightest woods, and Jocust, one of the heaviest, are alike al- most indestructible. ‘*Wind shakes’’ are circular cracks in a trea separating the different layers. They are supposed to be caused by wind, and greatly injure the lumber made from such a tree.—St. Louis Globe- Democrat. Our store opens at 6 a. m.
