Old Favorites
The Old Granite State.
I have come from the mountains of the
old Granite State,
Where the hills are bo lofty, magnifi
cent and great;
I have left kindred spirits in the lamd
of the blest, 1 " . ; ""
When I bade them adieu for the far
distant West.
Oh! thy mountains. Oh! thy valleys,
In my native State.
Oh, thy hills and thy valleys are sa
cred to me.
No matter what In lands of others I
may see,
I may view scenes as sunny, as fair
and as smooth,
Then I'll think of my cottage that
stands in the grove;
Oh! my childhood. Oh! that home'
stead, in my own native State.
When I think of the fair one who once
was my pride,
As she roved among the mountains so
close to my side.
Then I sigh for the days that will
never come back.
For she sleeps on the 'shore of the
bold Merrimac.
Oh! that loved one. Oh! that grave
yard in my own native State.
A moth-r dear I've lost; she's gone to
the grave;
She was the dearest blessing that God
ever gave.
Now I go to the spot where buried Is
the loved,
And I ..eem to hear her singing with
the angels above.
Oh! my mother; I bless her ashes. In
my own native State.
Ballad Stanaaa.
I knew by the smoke that so gracefully
curl'd
Above the green elms that a cottage
was near.
And I said, "If there's peace to be
found in the world,
A heart that was humble might hope
for It here!"
It was noon, and on flowers that lan-
guish'd -around
In silence reposed the voluptuous
bee;
Every leaf was at rest, and I heard
not a sound
But the woodpecker tapping the hoi
low beech tree.
And "Here In this lone little wood," I
exclaim'd,
"With a maid who was lovely to soul
and to eye.
Who would blush when I praised her,
an 1 weep if I blamed.
How blest could I live, and how calm
could I die!
"By the shade of yon sumach, whose
red berry dipr
In the gush of the fountain, ho
sweet to recline,
And to know that I sigh'd upon lnno
cent lips.
Which had .tever been sigh'd on by
any but mine!"

CHEMISTRY 4,600 YEARS AGO.
Employed by Chinese in Cnre of
Diaeaae The Phlloaopher'a Stone
Yu Tung Kwai, a Chinese delegate
to the chemistry congress, read an
interesting paper before a section of
the assembly yesterday on the chem
leal Industry of China. Alchemy, he
said, was known in China at least
2,700 before Christ, and China still oc
cupied an important position in regard
to the chemical industries of the
world.
The principal object of the practice
of alchemy 4,600 years ago, he said.
was the cure of disease. Efforts were
also made to evolve a preparation
somewhat analogous to the philoso
pher's stone, the result attained being
known as gold pills.
Metallurgical work and dyeing were
known in China from time immemo
rial, while the processes of making
gunpowder, paper, glass and porcelain
all originated In the same country,
while it is admitted that the Chinese
of the Seventh century had a clear
knowledge of oxygen.
"Circumstances in China," said the
lecturer, "have now changed. Since
China has been known for thousands
of years to be an agricultural country
and to possess an enormous wealth of
undeveloped minerals, attention has
naturally been directed to the study
of these two branches of applied
science.
"A board of agriculture and indus
tries has been instituted, composed of
different bureaus, each bureau nianag-
ng some department, such as land
surveying, mine surveying, irrigation
work, etc. Having its headquarters in
Pekin, the affairs of each province are
controlled directly by provincial exec
utive committees, and shortly, It is
believed, government experimental sta
tions will be established. Also in
the formation of chemical societies
provincial societies have been formed,
which will constitute sectional
branches. Agricultural societies too
are being formed In good numbers, and
the last few years have witnessed the
establishment of 'commercial guilds.'
"A characteristic feature about the
teaching system of China is that chem
istry, together with mathematics. Is
a compulsory subject in the elementary
schools. This Is insisted upon, not
only that the pupil's mind may be
trained, but also that the young stu
dent may acquire some elementary
knowledge of natural phenomena."

THE BENTLEY BABY.
In the summer of 1887 Holman
Bentley, accompanied by his wife and
child, made a steamer journey on the
Upper Congo, in Africa. Sir Harry
Johnston, in his book entitled "George
Grenfell and the Congo," recounts the
result of the journey and the import
ant part played by the Bentley baby.
The party went through the Bolobo
district, which at that time had be
come excessively hostile to Europeans.
The temporary station of the Congo
State had been burned to the ground,
the chief, Ifaka, was dead, and when
the steamer Peace, bearing the Bent
leys, arrived in August, it was rough
ly ordered away. Before sheering off,
however, an idea occurred to Bentley.
Taking advantage of the steamer's
halt, his wife and nurse were giving a
bath to the Bentley baby.
As if by accident, the little white
child was held up in view of the angry
and excited people. Suddenly a hush
fell on the assembled throng, gradual
ly giving way to a shout of delighted
surprise.
A few minutes afterward, in re
sponse to urgent invitations to come
on shore, the Bentley baby, in a dainty
white dress, was being paraded
through the town, nursed and dandled
by warrior after warrior, till his
snowy frock was reddened with cam
wood dye or stained with greasy black
marks from those who had stained
their bodies with oil and soot.
Mrs. Bentley was equally an object
of interest and admiration, as she was
the first white woman who had ap
peared in those regions. Up to that
time the white man had been looked
upon as a sort of unnatural creature,
who was not bred and born like ordi
nary human beings, a semi-supernatural
being without a male. The Bent
ley baby practically created the mis
sion station of Bolobo, which has en
dured ever since.
The Wall-Paper Man.
Oh, I'd sing you a song of the wall
paper man,
Who's with us once again,
Who comes with the flies and who ev
erywhere hies
With his ladders and buckets ten;
I'd sing of the ease with which bric-a-
brac breaks
At the soft, eentle touch of his hand.
I'd sing of the Joy which it seems that
he takes
In unsettinK a Jardiniere stand;
I'd sing how he figures the cost of a
Job
To a dot (except extras worth ten),
Of his tracks in the hall and paste
buckets that fall.
And the way the new rug appears
then '
Oh, I'd sing of the wonderful litter he
leaves
And the household he puts In a
fuss
Yes, I'd sing of him now if I didn't
somehow.
Have to pass up all singing to cuss.
