WELL-SEASONED TIMBER.
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.

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

CONDITIONS OF SUCCESS.
IVhy Some Men Full Where Other (Irow
Wealthy and lroprou(.
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,

PRiVATE LETTERS.
The Poet Whtttler Ilea Something to Bay
on a Tlchtlnh Hubject. .
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.

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. Hall's Journal or
