SNOW IX THE MORNING
At dusk oeyond my window, bleak j
and gray
The meadwwg lay; the Autumn's
misty breath
Hung low where songless brooks
ran still away.
And on the faded grass were hues
of death.
This morning on a landscape new
I look
Wrought in a night change, fairy
like and fine;
I hear the tingling tinkle of the
brook.
And set< on,tree and sloping meadow
&hloe
The brilliant dust of silver st^rS
it seems
Another world* where beauty walks
in t>eace.
Where winds th^t moved with
Autumn's wistful dreams
Their low lamenting evermore must
cease.
So after death's quick night, may
we not gaze
On scenes undreamed' in life's
gray trodden ways?

Tli© Thanksgiving road, leads away

And hurries through thi-.ktt and

It playfully skips o'er the hilltop

And skims paat the fields like

It steals o'er the bridge past the ha:

And; loiters where willows are
sighing;
It tip'oes away from the fast-asleep

And frolics through snowflakes

It loves in tho wildwood a little to

' But all through tho miles ne'er

There are hearts full of love at the

SAL! WOODEN SHIPS
Method Used to Lengthen Life of
Vessels.
Turns Seepage Into Brine, Which Actf
as a Preservative of the
Wood.
Seattle, Wash.—C. 0. Morrow, pres
ident of the EUiottray Shipbuilding
company, suffered something of a
Shock the other morning, but at that it
was nothing to the shuck suffered by
several prominent citizens who were
taking a stroll through the company's
big wooden shipbuilding plant.
The citizens were shocked when they
discovered that 20 tons of rock salt is
used in building each of the big wood
en ships now unuer construction in
Seattle. Mr. Morrow was shocked be
cause his callers didn't know that rock
salt is a shipbuilding material. Every
body on the water front knows that,
but It seems that there are a lot of
prominent business men who didn't.
There is now a suspicion that only a
very few residents east of Railroad
avenue know that a wooden ship has
to be salted.
In showing the prominent citizens
about his plant Mr. Morrow came to
the building in which he stores this
rock salt. A railroad car was unload
ing another shipment.
"This is where we keep the salt for
the ships," said Morrow.
"Haw, haw!" said one caller, who Is
something of a humorist "I suppose
you're afraid the ships will get too
fresh ?"
"That's the exact truth," said Mr.
Morrow.
But the citizens wouldn't believe him
until they had'oxfltnined the salt. Some
of thera tasted it. The storehouses
contained 120 tons.
Mr. Morrow explained that the salt
Is poured between the frames of a
wooden ship above the water line and
is tainped down solid. Then if any wa>
ter seeps into the spaces between the
frames It Is turned to brine and does
not damage the wood. Instead, It acta
as a preservative.

PLAY GAME WITH BIG GUN
Frenchmen Wager as to Hour the
Bombardment of Paris Will
Start.
Paris.—A new sport has made itfl
appearance in Paris as a result of
the long-range cannon bombardment.
One may drop in at any cafe or res
taurant any day and find the game Ini
progress.
After the dinner or between sips of
coffee a paper is passed around with
the question: "At what hour will the
big cannon fire its next shot?" Each
persons fills in the time he thinks the
strafing will begin and pays a franc.
The firing of the cannon causes more
excitement than fear. Tha waiter
rushes for the list, while the others
crowd around, shouting and gestlcu«
lating to find out whose gueas haa
been the nearest and who gets tha
money.
