A pretty deer is dear to me,
A hare with downy hair,
A hart with all my heart,
Can baiely bear a bear
"Tis plain that no one takes a plane
To have a pair of pears :
A rake, though often takes a rake,
And tears away the tares,
~ Ali raise tyme, time razes all :
And though the whole, hole wears,
A writ in writing oright� may write
It owright, � and still be wrong,
For owrite� and orite� are neither

And donTt to write belong,
Beer often brings a bier to"man, "
Coughing a coffin brings,
And too much ale will make us wil
As well as some other things,
The person lies who says he lies
When he is not reclining,
And when consumptive folks recline
They all decline declining
A quail donTt quail betore a storm ;
A bough will bow before it :
We cannot rein the rain at all;
No earthly powers reign oTer it.
The dyer dyes awhile then dies ;
To dye heTs always trying
Until on his dying bed
He thinks no more, of dyeing,
A son of Mars mars many a son;
All deys must have their days,
And every knight should pray each
night
To Him who weighs his ways.
Tis mete that man should mete our

To feed misfortureTs son :
The fair should fare on love alone,
Else one cannot be won.
A lass, alas! is sometimes false ;
Of fault a maid is made ; e
Her waist is but a barren waste"
Though stayed, § she is not staid.
The springs spring forth in spring, and
shoots
Shoot forward, one and all,
Though summer kills the flowers, it

The leavesT to fall in fall
I would a story here commence,
But you might find it stale ;
So letTs suppose that we have reached
The tail end of our tale.

Epitor Rer_ector :" While there
is much being said about the insuffi-
ciency of the water supply of the town,
and all eyes and tongues are eagerly at
work looking and talking for water
works, there is a very great work being
left undone which ought~and should be
attended to by the authorities of the
town, and one that will cost so little
that it is not to be counted. It is sim-
many of the back lots in town, espec-

All the old trash, paper, rotten wood,
xes, and in fact everything that goes
to make the start of a great conflaga-
tion, can be found in many places,
after and where they should go every
day. The lot between the post-office
and ProctorTs bar is a most inviting
place for the starting a big fire"also

of the racket store and many other

look to enforce this great and n.eded
work. The weather is dry and the
winds high, and too great care cannot
be taken inthis matter. Besides. the
health of the town requires it as a
sanitary measure. It should uot be

ywing Demand for the Material
"fn the Industries.
It Is Largely Used in the Manafacture of
Tiling, and Promises to Become an
~Important Factor in Build-
ing Operations, Etc.
The demand for pulp for other pur-
poses than paper making is likely to
inerease largely the next few years
should the various branches of indus-
try whichare cropping up around about
here meet with the great suecess which
sanguine inventors and patentees
anticipate. Whatever opinion may be
expressed with regard to these new
ventures there are already a couple of
manufacturers who seem to have struck
out in the right direction in the making
of marketable goods where pulp is the
chief factor as raw material. One of the
undertakings which deserves to be noted
is the Fieldhammer Brug, started by
the go-ahead and enterprising H.
Bache-Wug, and managed by the well-
known Christiania firm of Ambrosius
Hausen. This mill began operations
about two years ago, making roofing
tiles, and is now shipping to different
parts of the globe a product which has
gained a reputation for its superior
qualities over all other slates in the
market. oNorway tiles,� as they are
termed, aré made from wood pulp,
which, under very high pressure, is
formed into thin cakes of sizes like the
ordinary. roofing slates... After a chemi-
cal treatment, which is the inventor's
secret, the tiles become hard, like brick,
~which lends itself admirably to give a
soft tone to houses with prominent
roofs and gables. It is claimed for the
oNorway tiles� that they possess every
advantage of the best slates in the
market; their composition makes them
light and durable and they are not so
_|liable to breakage as. the ordinary
slates; they are not subject to any ex-
pansion or contraction, and when a
roof is once covered with this material
it will stand for a good many years
without ~epairs whatever. The price
of oNorway slates� is very low, and
compared with what other roofing
costs admits of a saving of 35 per cent.,
an item of no small importance in our
days, when compctition is so keen.
Prominent architects who had the op-
)| portunity to examine oNorway tiles�
pronounce them superior as to quality,
appearance and price, and the insur-
ance companies appear favorably dis-
posed anc stamp the tiles.ias a very. be-
sirable and safe roofing material. The
new mills »t Embretsfos, Thursfos and
Skein are covered with oNorway tiles,�
and from information gathered the pro-
prietors of the mills are well pleased
with the new roofing.
An enthusiastic advocate of wood
pulp for. building material as a substi-
tute for stone is G. D. Rice, who has
made the subject one of close study
and investigation. His conclusion is
that it possesses the needed elements
of a durable constructive substance,
being at.the same time devoid of some
of those features which detract from
the value of stone and brick. Hv suin-
marizes some of the qualities presented
by this new factor in building es con-
~sisting of being light in weight, ex-
cecdingly hard, a poor conductor of
heat and sound, and sufficiently elastic
to meet all the usual requirements for
the purpose; it is tough, thoug!: a nail
can be driven into it, and it can also be
drilled, while the other necessities of
a stone substitute, are enumerated, to-
gether with resistance of frost and
heat, with ability to stand strain, and
so on, are said to be met, besides the
transportation, It is urged further
that the difficulty of producing per-
fectly square stone blocks, éxcept at
high rates, is thus overcome, for the
pulp blocks, being cast in a square
mold, are necessarily uniform. ~Dif-
fering from stone and brick, which
absorb so muchT heat in summer, the
proposed materiai is eliimed to be
cooler in summer, while in cold weather
it prevents dampness, so common in
stone,--WorldTs Paper Trade Review.

migrate so much from state to state as.
formerly. In 1860 exactly one-fourth
of the population of the United States
had emigrated from the state where they
were born. But since 1870 the tendency
to stick to the old home has steadily in-
creased. This tendency is more marked
in New England than elsewhere. e
