How Wood In Dried tu the I.arKe Parol tare Factortps of the Euc "It is mighty hard work to buy thor aughly dried 'lumber' nowadays," said a furniture manufacturer, "because the great demand for it in the East for building and manufacturing purposes tcads the Western lumbermen to ship it before it has been thoroughly sea soned. A few years ago it was custom ary to take tho wood from the saw and pile it up out-doors, where it would remain from eighteen months to two years before it was considered fit for shipping. Now, six months is consid ered long enough, and in cousequonce we receive very little wood dry enough to bo worked to advantage." 'How -then do you manage to gel along?" was asked. " "We have dry-rooms or kilns, in which we place the wood and season it ourselves. We buy the best-seasoned timber we can get, and then shut it wp for from one to three weeks until it is in fit condition for use." "How can you tell when it isP" "In several ways. We notice how it cuts, and examine the saw-dust and shavings. Even then we are often de ceived, and discover warps and cracks in our manufactured product before it leaves the salesrooms. You yourself have probably noticed cracks in the fine bedsteads of even the best makers, or have seen the top of a nice hard wood desk split from side to side. All this comes from the use of unseasoned lumber. It makes up neatly, and may seem to be perfectly dry, but when ex posed to the changes of the atmos phere, the moisture in the pores of the wood evajwrates, shrinkage ensues, and something gives. I was much mortified the other day, and at the same time lost a good customer, by just this very thing happening. An order had been received from a wealthy woman in New Haven for a finely carved cabinet Unfortunately, I was called out of town before I had fin ished selecting the wood for it and had to leave some of the selecting to an assistant. The cabinet was finished, and was an exquisite bit of workman ship. In three weeks after delivery it was sent back to me, and right across one of the finest panels there was a crack that you could put a pin into. That customer has never been near the store since, and yet I venture to say that the same thing is liable to oecur at any time in any establishment," "How do you dry timber artificial ly?" "There are a number of ways. Naturally, heat is the fundamental principle in all. The kilns are of all sizes and shapes. Some are heated by furnaces, some by steam-pi pes, and some by hot air sent from a distance by fans. In some a vacuum is created, in others compressed air is used. The great point, I think, is to get a good circulation all about the lumber. One method is used by which a .large vol ume of hot air is sent into the kiln at one end and exhausted at the other. Every minute or two the air in the kiln is thus changed and the moisture from the wood passed off. There is an arrangement by which any degree of heat can be produced, and different kinds of mood are treated differently. This process dries green 'lumber'" in Seven or eight days. It would take one or two years of exposure to dry the same wood in the open air." N. Y. Evening Post. WHY MORTAR HARDENS. It Is Die to the Combination of Iinu wlCfc Water. In writing upon this subject G. R. Burnell says: Until very recently it was held by most engineers and archi tects, by myself among others, that the solidification of mortars took place in consequence of the absorption of carbonic acid gas by the lime during the process of crystalization; but it has been fairly objected to this theory that the quantity of carbonic acid gas con tained in the atmosphere which could be brought into contact with a large body of cement would not suffice to saturate the latter. 'The generally received opinion on the subject now ia that lime hardens simply in consequence of the combina tion with water which takes place dur ing the slaking, and that the rapidity of the setting, aad the permanence of the newly-formed hydrate of lime, de pends upon its being combined with some other salt; the pure hydrate of lime, in fact, ia soluble; the hydrated silicate of lime is tolerably, insoluble, but it forms slowly; while the hydrated double silicate of lime and alumina, or of lime and magnesia, are practically insoluble. The facts actually observed seem to confirm these views, and they certain ly enable us to account for not only the different modes of setting observable in different limes, but also for some of the more gradual actions which take place in that material, and the effects reciprocally produced by the mixtures of various ingredients. In the case of the now generally- used Portland cements, and in that ot underburnt lime, some -very curious phenomena may, however, be ob served, which appear to Indicate that the simple laws mentioned above do not comprehend all the conditions which may arise, so that the above theory itself must only be considered as a step toward the. attainment of a complete one of a more general char acter. ;- The phenomena to which I thus al lude are connected with the obscure subject of the chemical actions which take place under the influence oi high degrees of temperature Boston Budcot ' Every member of an Atlanta' "fam ily of seven wears eye-glasses. - A certain California millionaire wrote his own will so carefully and clearly that none of his relatives could break it He was not a lawyer.

There are a groat many people who iwra to think that their success In life uYpends upon certain conditions, are always finding fault because those con ditions are not in accordance with thuir ideas. This would seem to be not a fault of the conditions, but of the person to whom the conditions apply. The'fact is, conditions are just whut we make them, and the whole secret of success rests entirety with ourselves, and we are responsible for the results. The reason for one man's success and the failure of another in the same line are not faets governoi by circumstances or conditions, outside of the individuals themselves. ' We see quite often a man. who. judg ing from his education anJ training, ought to be successful, only make a dismal failure, while another, with comparatively Utile education, and who has had no training, other than that he has given himself, is eminently successful, and every move made by him turned to good account In such a case no particular credit is given the man himself, but "the conditions were right" or "luck favored him." Noth ing could be more foolish or do the in dividual a greater injustice. Luck, conditions and circumstances are mythical so far as any reality or influ encing existences are concerned. The men who are the moet success ful are the men who, combining a strong will power with active and energetic determination, make the con ditions and circumstances, and never allow themselves to be influenced by these mythical nonentities. The only conditions there are govern ing success are not those that precede the tnan, but those existing- in the man at the 6tart, and which he controls by his own action. The man whose motto Is pnlma non sine pulrere, and who thoroughly and honestly lives up to his motto, will be pretty sure of success. Some men do not succeed because they undertake, something for which they have no natural adaptability, and because they fail of success, curse luck, conditions and circumstances, when If they would undertake another line of accomplishments, they might gain the success they so much court Adaptability has more to do with success than either conditions or cir cumstances, and this should be the first study of the young man who ' ia looking for a chance to start In life. A business that will pay one man will not pay another, and because one man makes a certain line pay and is successful, is not a good and sufficient reason why every one should rush into that business. Such examples of hot headed baste to become wealthy are too common, and the lesson they teach should be thoroughly learned by every young man. If you would be successful, choose that business for which you have the most natural adaptability, and which, is not beyond your powers of control, and then stick to it When reverses come and losses occur, do not stop to mourn these, or make yourself and friends miserable with complaints about luck and conditions, but put all the more vim and energy into your business. You can't undo what has been done: you may prevent a recur rence, and may certainly profit by the experience; while if you stop or become downhearted, morose and uncomforta ble yourself, every thing about you will be contaminated, and instead of improving will grow worse. Before entering business, prepare your mind to meet all these changes, which are sure to come, and when they do come meet them like a man, and conquer them. These are the only conditions of a truly successful career. A. B. Grimes, In Boston Budget TO REMOVE STAINS. A Mint of fnefnl and Practical Informa tion for Housekeepers. To remove coffee stains put thick glycerine on the wrong side of the ar ticle and wash out in lukewarm water. Ink stains on clothes, dip in milk and wash as usual. Remove ink stains from Bilver-plated ware by rubbing on a paste of chloride of lime and water; then wash and wipe dry. Wash out common oil stains in cold water; oil stains on carpets can be removed at once by scat tering corn meal upon them, also by applying a hot iron through a heavy sheet of blotting paper. Boiling new milk will take out most fruit stains; dip the articles in several times; anoth er way is to dip in sour buttermilk and dry in the sun; wash in cold water and dry two or three times daily. For raspberry stains, a mixture of weak ammonia and water is baet. Remove stains from the windows by using di luted spirits of salt To take out iron mold stains, wet with milk and cover with salt The latter also rubs egg stains from spoons. 'Wet grass stains on white goods with water, rub in some soft soap and as much soda as will ad here; let stand half an hour, then wash in the usual manner. .For stains on teacups or tinware dip a dampcloth in common soda; rub briskly, then wash and wipe dry.

The poet Whittier has enunciated a hard doctrine in a recent letter to a friend in regard to the publication of private epistles. How it chances that the principles he so emphatically lays down are violated by the publication of this particular document is not ex plained; but it is rather surprising, since he writes: "Some years ago I destroyed a large collection of letters I had received, not from any regard to my own reputation, but from the fear that to leave them liable to publicity might be injurious or unpleasant to the writers or their friends. They covered much of the ant'-slavery period, and tho war of the rebellion, and many of them, I know, were strictly private and confidential. I was not able at the time to look over the MSS.. and I thought it safest to make a bonfire of all. I have always regarded a private and confidential letter as sacred, and its publicity In any shape a shameful breach of trust unless authorized by the writer. I only wish my own letters to thousands of corresj)ondents may be as carefully disposed of." The ground here taken is certainly a sufficiently high one. The logical deduction from the position of the writer is that most biographies are practically violations of the decent re serve which should surround tho dead, since it is difficult to believe that there exists a modern biography which does not owe its information largely to what Mr. Whittier calls private letters. Leaving, for the moment the wider question whether biographies as such are or are not of value, it is fair to consider that ev-ry honest man. If told that his history will be written, will first of all desire that it be true. To destroy his letters would, in the case of any person of sufficient note to have been concerned in important events, be to lessen the chance of the truth's being known, either in regard to himself or others. Certainly if bi ography and history are to be written, it is important that they shall ap proach as nearly as possible to the truth; and neither Mr. Whittier nor anybody else has a right to destroy documents which would assist in bringing the truth to light Justice to the memory of his friend should lead one who has Important letters to see that they are properly us d. not that the risk is run of having history misrepresented for want of them. Mr. Whittier himelf would undoubtedly prefer that "bis tetters to thousand of correspondents" should be printed to having his lite misrepresented and the high causes in defense of which h has lought so well misunderstood. The fact is that while this matter of publication seems at first glance both unpleasant and unjustifiable, it Is but another form of the universal truth that no man's life belongs to himself. Perhaps a man has no more right either to expect or to wish to take to the grave with him any more than he takes his gold the personal privacy which is as much a luxury of life as is his treasure. In any case the history of man belongs to the living; and since the history of man is made up of the history of men. In their story the world has an inalienable right It follows that documents which seem private property are often public trusts, and not therefore to be disposed of accord ing to the simple will of the possessor, who ia really simply a custodian. It is not of course meant that all the details of life, the private experiences, hidden emotions and intimate secrets of the heart are to be laid open to the market place. It is not that public vulgar curiosity Is to be satisfied, but the significant the general, the things which belong to the Ufa of the people or to the growth of the public senti ment or belief these things belonf not to the individual, but to the race. And so, despite our recognition of the genuine sincerity of the act and of the delicacy of feeling which prompted It we can not help feeling that it is at least an open question whether Mr. Whittier had a moral right to destroy those letters, relating, as many of them must have done, to some of the most important events which hava ever shaken and shaped our Nation. Boston Courier. The Vital Functions. It is well understood that the vital functions are more or less processes of combustion, and are subject to laws similar to those which regulate the burning of coal In our fireplaces. We are apt to put on too much coal, or al low the fire to be smothered In ashes. The child pokes the fire from the top to make it burn faster; but the wis man pokes it from below to rake out the ashes and allow free access of ox ygen. And so It is with the functions of life, only that these being Icrs un derstood, many a man acts in regard to them as a child does to the fire. The man thinks that his brain is not acting because he has not supplied it with sufficient food. He takes meat three time-i a day and beef tea to supply iU wants, as he thinks, and puts in a pok er to stir it up in the shape of a ga.st of sherry or a nip from the brandy bot tle. And yet all the time, his brain U suffering from accumulation of ash. and the more he continues to cram himself with food, and to supply him self with stimulants, the worse ht ultimately becomes, Just as the child' breaking the coal may cause a tempo rary blaze, hut allows the fire to b smothered in ashes.
