BEYOND THE SHADOW.
We mortals live within a little space of
light,
And if we seek to look beyond it, all Is
night.
And as we walk upon our earthly way,
A shadow hides this year, this very day;
E’en the next moment, what it may not
prove
To us and ail around us whom we love —
We cannot tell.
A thick veil hides all future times, and
dims our sight;
Withholding from our knowledge things
both sad and bright;
That veil we oft would draw aside, and
rend;
But rather, praise should with our worship
blend,
That God our Father in His love denies,
What would so often fill with tears our
eyes,
If we but knew.
What things the shadow has contained
before we know'.
We see the days of yore, in memory’s light
aglow.
Things which well nigh impossible we
deemed,
Others we scarce had hoped for, scarce
had dreamed,
Came to us simply, sudden, unawares;
These things have been, and also petty
cares and joys.
Another shadow, dark across our path we
feel and see.
That of the river, we must cross at last,
O God, to Thee.
What shall our lot be, there across the
river?
Eternal peace, from the Almighty Giver,
Joy beyond every joy of worldly birth,
Joy in the promised Heaven and new earth
Eternally.
—Miss E. H. Warner, in N. Y. Observer.
CREATING AN
ATMOSPHERE
BY f. H- unNcnsTEK.
(Copyright. 1901, by Authors Syndicate.)
THE pines were tossing their heads
in a tempest of exultant
strength; a wild wind had come out
of the northwest for a romp. The
woman watching them with hungry
eyes, unfolded her arms and turned
away reluctantly. It was close and
smelly inside, and there were people
there who expected her to be pleas
ant, when she could not. With all the
yearning of a genius she longed to be
alone; to live but a little longer in
this atmosphere of serene strength.
“If I were an older hand at the
business I could keep my atmos
phere —as the pines keep theirs.”
She lingered to let her pulses thrill
once more to the resistless strength
of those strong, straight stems, and
then, folding her arms upon a stern
serenity of mood, opened the door
and stumbled into the darkened par
lor.
It was close after the windy out
side, as she had expected. “Never
mind lights and odors, if you can
only keep your atmosphere,” she told
herself, as she realized with a thrill
of uneasiness that there was but one
other person in the room.
“Blinding, after the play of light
outside,” he remarked, cheerfully
sympathetic, as he came forward to
shake her hands.
Hannah set aside the pleasurable
sensation and greeted him serenely.
“There is quite a wind among the
pines.” she explained.
“Yes; I noticed as I walked up.
Grand sight. Did you ever notice how
it soothes one, the constant roar and
ceaseless dashing?”
“Like a storm at sea. There are
ceertain moods when nothing soothes
like a display of reckless unrest—”
she paused abruptly.
Morris moved restlessly. He was
not getting on very well, and he
was painfully conscious of the fact.
She was usually frank and free with

him. Women are contrary. An hour
ago he would have denied it. With
all his soul he hoped that this was
merely a passing mood, not a fixed
opposition. Good heavens, suppose
it were the latter. Suppose she was
determined to throw him over after
all. The mere thought chilled his
blood. There was a troubled light in
his eyes when he turned to her
again.
"Were you busy when I came this
evening?”
"I? no; that is, not particularly
60.”
‘‘You were some time coming in; I
thought perhaps —” he broke off
lamely.
‘‘l did not know it was you,” she
explained, serenely. Morris felt his
troubles thickening.
‘‘Yes, it was me,” he replied ab
sently.
“It still is, I think,” she commented,
finding the temptation irresistible.
“I’ll be hanged if I know whether it
is or not,” he returned, gloomily. “I
have a dazed feeling as though I were
a puppet in another man’s show.”
“Not a very pleasant sensation.”
“Not exactly. Makes me feel like
sympathizing with that poor devil,
Cyrano, after he had been wooing his
sweetheart in Christian’s name.”
“That’s a pretty scene —that balcony
scene in ‘Cyrano de Bergerac,*” Han
nah commented, beginning to glory a
little in the grip she was keeping on
her atmosphere.
“Yes; I suppose so,” he assented.
“At any rate, it is true what he says
about it being a sin in love to play at
fencing.”
“Nonsense. It is an absolute neces
sity.”
“To fence in love?”
“Yes. Why, where would we be if
it was a matter of straight cut and
thrust, and no feints?”
“We might be happy— ? *
“We would most probably be bank
rupt. The sum and substance of a
love story is the fencing—”
“Love story? Oh, love story. Yes,
I dare say it’s eminently necessary.
Does it never strike you as cold-blood
ed, making copy out of the most sa
cred sensations of the human heart.”
“To tell the truth, the adjectivestor
ment me so that I haven’t time to think
whether the sensations are sacred or
profane. I know’ w’hat mine generally
are by the time I get the thing in
shape.”
“Yes; profane.”
“Well, in one sense,” she admitted.
“Not exactly wishing you ‘could hire
a man to swear,’ but—tell me how do
you writers go to work on a story?”
“Oh, I don’t know’. Of course, w-e
first create an atmosphere.”
“That means?”
“Why, it means. »It means that you
have to satisfy your mind with the
matter you are going to w’ork on and
get yourself into the mood you are
going to exploit. If you want to de
pict a vicious character, you’ve got to
be vicious.”
“For the time being. I begin to see.
Go on.”
“Why, there is nothing to go on.
That is all there is to it.”
Morris twisted his mustache
thoughtfully. Hannah moved her seat
so that she might watch the wind
tossed pines. Really if he expected to
reach home before the storm broke
he ought to go at once, she thought.
But Morris showed no intentions of
going. He was face to face with an
uncertainty, and he meant to win out
or lose.
“Tell me more about your work,” he
asked. “I find it interesting.”
“There is nothing more to tell,” she
insisted.
“There must be.” You have not told
me how you get up your characters.
Do you study them from life or imag
ine them, or do they just naturally
come?”
“Oh, any way. After you get your at
mosphere the characters will develop
themselves.”
“Then creating the atmosphere is
the tough end of the job?”
“Creating it and keeping it until you
are done with it —yes. You see moods
are hard to manage.”
This time Morris did not make the
mistake of telling her to go on. He
merely nodded and looked interested.
“Did you ever try to keep yourself
in one frame of mind all day?”
“I have done it for a year.”
“Is that so? How?” He looked at
her and smiled a little.
“I had some one to help me.”
Hannah moved abruptly and looked
out despairingly at the forest. The
pines had ceased their tossing and
stood silent and solemn, awaiting the
downpour of rain lowering over them.
Where now was that suggestion of
unyielding strength—resistless, se
rene? Hannah felt her carefully-cre
ated atmosphere slipping from her,
and a wail of disappointed ambition
began to well in her breast.
“It is going to rain,” she remarked
“See how’ still the trees are.”
“I see. The big fellows like to bluflt,
but they know how to take their medi
cine.”
“But aren’t you afraid of getting
wet?”
“Why, does this roof leak?” He
smiled at her disconcerted expression.
She was beginning to be herself once
more, and his spirits rose with a rush.
“Do you want to get back to your
work so badly as all that?” He took
a restless turn through the room and
paused beside her. “If you will prom
ise to do something for me I will go
home and let you work in peace.”
He gazed quietly at the motionless for
est, but his voice deepened.
Hannah’s atmosphere suffered a
swift change of currents.
“I don’t know,” she muttered.
“But you will try,” he insisted. “See,
there is the rain.”
They stood silent for a moment
watching its approach. At first faint
white streaks stealing up the forest
vistas, then an opaque whiteness con
cealing the distant trunks, leaving the
pine tops blurred and misty. The
breath of the air grew wet and fra
grant, the foremost trunks lost all
distinctness of outline and a few large
drops of rain splashed against the win
dow sill.
“Well,” Hannah sighed, “that is the
last of my atmosphere.”
Morris laid an eager hand on her
arm.
“Let me help you to another one.
Here, in this window seat, we could
create a deliciously cozy atmosphere
with the rain outside, and—will you
admit that immortal fellow to share
our afternoon? He has been my con
stant companion for so long now that
I doubt whether I could shut him out.
He is not bad company. I assure you
he has turned many a thunder cloud
into a rose-colored mist for me. May
he come in?”
Hannah made no reply, but she al
lowed herself to be drawn down into
the broad-cushioned seat and —the “de
liciously cozy” atmosphere was cre
ated.

A REMARKABLE SHOT.
Wonderful Shooting; of a Hunter Who
Made a Triple Play with His
Only Remaining Charge,
“Hello, Ike!” said Perkins, as that
individual w’alked into the store,
how’d you make out gunnin’ to
day?”
“Tole’ble, jest tole’ble, that’s all.
I got four black ducks, six broad
tail and ten winters.”
“I must say thet’s pretty good
shootin’ fer one day,” said Perkins,
relates Judge.
“ ’Twas putty fair, but I should
have got more yet if my shells hadn’t
gin out.”
“Thet so?” said the constable.
“ ’Twas hard luck, and ’minds me o’
one day ’bout four years ago when
I went down tu the medders gunnin’
with thet old muzzle-loader er mine.
I fooled ’round all day, till I had only
one charge of powder left. Birds had
been cornin’ ’long one in a flock, and
now and then tew lone ones, and all
of ’em out er range, and I didn’t git
a bird. I was kinder discouraged;
hadn’t had a good shot all day. But
jest as I w’as gittin’ out of the stand
I heard a goose hollerin’, and I
crouched down quick, I can tell yer,
and purty soon he landed plump
down in the’slough-hole in front of
me, where my decoys was. I was jest
in the south of the deacon’s medder
—you fellers remember how the
marsh there is very narrer and runs
right clus to the beach —and my stand
was jest abreast of thet low place on
the beach they call the blow-hole.
Wa-al, I moved ’round keerful and
got a bead on the old goose, when he
must have smelt me, for jest as I
was goin’ tu let him hev it he be
gun swimmin’ away from me. I didn’t
want tu lose him, so I begun to whis
tle him back, and, if you’ll believe me,
as I was a-sittin’ there wfliat should
I see cornin’ up by the blow-hole but
a red fox. Boys, I’d hev given my
hull farm for another charge of pow
der and shot thet minute, I guess.
The goose by this time had circled
round and begun tu come toward
me agin, and the fox was a-standin’
still. Gradually the old goose was
gittin’ in line with thet fox. ‘By
thunder!’ ’s I, ‘if I can git ’em in a
line there’s a chance of gittin’ ’em
both.’ In another minute they was
right in line and I let ’em hev it. Jest
as I fired, a bluefish jumped out of
the water from a school on ’em that
was chasin’ bait inshore. I shot the
goose plum through the head, lamed
the fox so he couldn’t run, and killed
thet bluefish so he drifted ashore,
and I got the hull three.”
“Boys,” said Perkins, solemnly, “if
you’ll step intu the back room I’ll set
up the cider.”
Climate of Alaska’s Interior.
In the vast and almost unknown in
terior of Alaska the climate is arctic.
The w’inter is of eight months’ dura
tion, dry, and, excepting certain re
stricted localities, entirely free from
wind. The tempeiature descends as
low’ as 80 degrees, with a mean of, per
haps, 40 degrees. Ice forms in the
rivers and lakes to a thickness of eight
feet and more. Summer extends over
four months. During its earliest
months high winds prevail. The bal
ance of this short season is mild, and
the temperature pleasant, rarely ex
ceeding 86 degrees. The snow and rain
annually precipitated is about 12.9
inches. —Chicago Inter Ocean.
Unique Legislation.
There is a unique law on the statute
books of Nevada, the object of which
was to clear from stain the name of
an Indian chief, who, although a strong
temperance advocate and an abstainer,
took a “pick-me-up” one day in a local
saloon. In his extremity he appealed
to his white friends, with the result
that the state legislature was persuad
ed to declare itself thus: “Resolved,
by the legislature of the state of Ne
vada, the governor concurring, That
the drink of whisky taken by Johnson
Siddes in the Magnolia saloon July 11,
1887, be and is hereby annulled.”—Chi

SLOP FOR THE PIGS.
Experiments Demonstrate That There
Is But Small Gain in Mixing
Giain with Water.
The Indiana station has reported
some data on a question which often
arises in pig feeding—namely, what
is the advantage of mixing the grain
feed with water and how thick or how
thin should slop be fed? Four lots
of four pigs each were used in a test
which covered about five months. For
about three months all the pigs were
fed meal and shorts. During the re
mainder of the time hominy feed re
placed the corn. Lot 1 was given the
ration dry; lot 2 was fed the grain
mixed with an equal weight of water;
while in the case of lot 3 it was mixed
with twice and in the case of lot 4
three times its weight in water. In ad
dition to the dry grain or slop the
pigs were supplied with all the drink
ing water they desired, and the
amount consumed was recorded.
The average daily gains of the four
lots were in every case a little over
four pounds a day. The gain required
per pound of gain by the four lots
were 3.59, 3.80, 3.74 and 2.75 pounds re
spectively, while the cost of food per
pound of gain ranged from 2.87 cents in
the case of lot 1 to 3.04 cents in the case
of lot 2. In view of the fact that
the pigs fed dry grain made slightly
better gains than those fed grain
mixed with water in the form of slops,
it would appear that there is really
no gain in feeding the pigs a slop in
stead of a dry grain, excepting as a
feeder may regard it a matter of con
venience.
PORTABLE HOG PEN.
With It Pigs Can Be Moved About
from One Feeding Ground to
Another as Desired.
The illustration shows an improved
A.-shaped hog pen, the improvement
consisting in the shoes that allow it
to be moved from one place to an
other, in the swinging door at the end,
and especially in the hinging of the
side, which permits it to be raised and
the interior cleaned out whenever
necessary. When the side swings
down again into place the upper end
fits up under the short boards at the
top.
This house need not be more than
five feet high from ground to peak,

and with it the hogs can be moved
about from one feeding ground to an
other as desired. Use single boarding,
but have the boards tongued and
grooved, and well covered with plant.
The building will then be watertight
and will last for years. Make the
floor space of a size to accomodate the
number of hogs to be kept. —Orange
Judd Farmer.
TIMELY STOCK NOTES.
In raising calves for the dairy, com
mence with the breeding.
Usually wean such calves from their
dams when five days old.
If horses have pin worms, try an in
jection of soapsuds and weak tobacco
tea night and morning.
W’hen a bull’s hair is rough and looks
dead, feed a good quality of oilcake
and card him thoroughly.
Beware of disease if you buy sheep
or swine from a distance that have
passed through stock yards and have
been transported in the cars.
For wounds from barbed wire, ap
ply carbolic acid, one part, with lard,
eight parts. Cleanse the wound first.
Then substitute another sort of fence.
—N. Y. Tribune.
Wool Business Is Reviving.
The wool business shows many
signs of improvement. The harden
ing prices abroad and the good in
quiry on domestic account have cre
ated a bullish feeling in the trade,
and most of the eastern concerns pre
dict higher prices later in the sea
son. For the sheepman on the range
this promises to be a good year.
Mutton, to be in line with other
meat products, must advance, which
it is more likely to do than that

will not be the loser if the upward
trend of the market continues.—Chi

How to Prevent Runaways.
The man who wants to be sure of
having a safe driving horse will do all
in his power to prevent that horse
from ever getting beyond control. If
the horse gets to run away once he is
liable to be an unsafe animal ever
afterward. It is a tribute to the good
disposition and good sense of the
horse that more of them are not
ruined by carelessness- Unsafe har
ness, neglect to fasten properly, care
less of reckless driving, constant nag
ging until the horse is nervous, or the
infliction of pain in biting or reining
are common with young horses being
broken to drive. It is a wonder that
there are not more runaways than
now recorded. —National Stockman.

Sharp, in Farm and Home.
THE SHEEP’S FEET.
If They Are Properly and Systemati
cally Cared For, Lameness Will
Occur Rarely.
It seems hard to understand why it
never occurs to many shepherds to
trim the feet of the home flock. But
more than this, some even enter the
show ring with the two divisions of
the foot curled and the outer one
usually turned up as if it were search
ing for a support on which to climb.
Such a sheep can hardly walk, and
when let loose in the show’ ring, wad
dles around as if its legs W’cre use
less for the purposes of locomotion.
During the summer, especially if pas
tured on hilly and gravelly ground, the
feet may not need attention, but be
fore the flock goes into winter quar
ters, and again at shearing time the
feet want looking after, says the
Homestead. Usually thorough trim
ming at shearing time is sufficient,
but the flockmaster, by watching,
should know’ how often, and when
he should attend to the feet of his
own flock. Varieties differ a great
deal; usually the fine W’ooled sorts
grow horn much more rapidly than
the others. If the foot is not attend
ed to and the breeding flock goes into
winter quarters with the hoof too
long, it soon begins to double over and
imprison filth and dirt, and the top
growing inordinately begins to turn
upwards. After a time the sheep goes
lame because of the filth and irrita
tion, thus furnishing the most suit
able conditions for foot rot to de
velop
In paring the feet the toe should
be cut off at a point where the nat
ural toe seems to stop. The toes are
seldom shortened too much. Of course
if cut too closely some bleeding may
result, and w’hile this is not serious,
it is needless pain to the sheep. In
removing the double sides pare these
close to the natural pad of the foot
and clean out all filth or accumula
tions. If it is filled w’ith matter or
suppurated, clean it out thoroughly
and dress it with a saturated solution
of copper, sulphate or blue stone. If
chalk or some other harmless sub
stance is mixed with this it gives it
body and the application is retained
better. During the winter season,
when the sheep are more confined and
the conditions are very unfavorable
for rapid hoof grow’th, the feet are
very likely to require attention, if
they have not been cared for pre
viously. i
Ashes and Salt for Hogs.
My hogs get all the wood ashes, coal
ashes, soft coal or hard coal they will
devour, and fattening hogs when con
fined will eat a good deal. I believe
the ashes or coal supply a need, keep
the animals flourishing and tend to
prevent worms and cholera. I for
merly got coal siftings from the coal
yards, but I have substituted soft coal
ashes from the creamery furnace in
addition to wood ashes from the
house. It is amusing to see the swine
stand around the ash pits eating
ashes and hunting for the bits of coal,
crunching them with much seeming
delight. As to salt, my hogs never
seemed to care for it, though I give
them all they want, putting it in a
separate place so as not to compel the
hogs to eat what they do not want in
order to get what they do want.—
Breeder’s Gazette.
Silage for Ewen and Lanibw.
We have never had a silo. Having
always a great abundance of alfalfa
or clover hay, we have not needed it
much, says Joseph E. Wing in Breed
ers’ Gazette. Yet such shepherds as
H. H. Miller and H. P. Miller, both
famous lambgrowers, use silos. H.
P. Miller declares good silage a great
aid in keeping up the milk flow of
the ewes. There is no doubt that
the ewe needs about the same ration
as the dairy cow while she is suck
ling her lamb. I would suggest that
the silage be made so as to be sweet,
fearing that much acidity in it would
harm the lambs through the milk.
That means that the corn should get
fairly matured before being put into
the silo.
Points of a Good Sheep.
Lots of bone, large, strong joint!
and a flat rather than a round, pipe
stem leg are the things to insist
upon, says Wood Markets and Sheep.
The belly and back line should both
be straight, the back broad and the
skin bright red, though dark and
even lighter skinned rams are some
times very vigorous. This is not the
rule, however.
