Dreaming.
^They ain't nothin' quite so cheerful
"When th’ blinds is fastened tight,
As this Rood, old-fashioned fireplace
I'm a liuRRin’ here to-niRht.
Tew kin hev yer gas an' water.
Yew kin have yer smelly steam,
But Rive me til’ cracklin' fireplace
An’ jist hope enough t' dream!
"Jist th’ hope tliet comes t' critters
Like me, ploddin’ to an' fro.
An' I'll paint MY masterpieces
In tlf firelight’s ruddy glow.
Tew kin loll beside yer steam pipes
In tlf glare o' fancy light—
But yew cannot know tlf fancies
I'm a-weavin' here to-night!
Tew can’t view til’ rosy pictures
I’m a-oketchin’ in th' coals.
Tew can't see th' lovin’ faces
Frum Time’s mortuary rolls.
Tew can’t dream here in th' firelight,
Keepin' fast a hold o’ hands
With Hi' dear ones thet hev vanished
To th’ fur off, distant lands!
Tew can’t see tlf rosy blushes
Of Hi' girl yew used t’ love.
Tew can't hold communion with her
Frum th' golden skies above.
Tew can’t hear her whisper bygones
Tn tlf silhouetted light.
Tew can’t brush away yer tear drops
Like I'm doin' here to-night!
Tew can’t feel yer heart strings flutter
At yer mother's soft caress.
Tew can’t even know she's watchin’
Over yew to-night, I guess!
Tew can’t open wide tlf floodgates
An' jist let tlf magic light
Be a benediction to yew.
As I'm doin' here to-night!

Man Requires Much Food.
The amount of food required by an
ordinary person is somewhat remark
able when comparison is made with
an engine. A man requires to be
supplied with about 4,600 foot tons of
energy a day. That is to say, his
food, if consumed in an engine, would
raise 4.600 tons weight one foot high
every day.
