rushed in one hot afteru.ui with the
plaintive wail: 'Stop my letter. Give

dropped, the time, the address and ' the
reason why the request for the recovery
is made. That reason sometimes dis
closes some very interesting and roman
tic facts; but, of coarse, most of the
letters are stopped lor the business
bouses about town. When we asked the
red faced Niobe what her reason was,
6he boohooed, 'Me un my man had

The Changing Leaves.
It is one of the marvels of trees that
every species bears its own mark in
every part, root and branch, bark and
leaf, as well as fruit. A wise elder told
us the other day the species of oak from
which au acorn came by the fine tracery
on the acorn's cup Such a riot of col
ors and tints there is in the lallinp
leaves that one might think the colors
are accidental, but the keynote of coloi
is constant in any species, with only ex
ceptional variations.
Rie mistress of a manse in the Vir
ginia valley once went into the woods
and selected her young trees by theii
colors, and those colors they still wave
in each returning fall. The birches are
a golden yellow, while the oaks vary
through yellow orange to a reddish
brown. The red maple sheds at the last
a dark red leaf and the tulip tree a light
yellow The hawthorn and the poison
oak are violet, while the sumac and the
wild vines take on a flaming scarlet
Soil will make some variations, and a
dry season will almost take the coloi
and beauty altogether away. Rich

" New Products of Wood.
It is not generally known that over (10
per cent ofwood may he converted into
liquid. The strongest hydraulic pressure
would not squeeze one-half of 1 percent
of moisture from dry wood, but by put
ting the same material into an iron re
tort and converting it into charcoal by
means of heat the gases and smoke, to
the extent of fully 03 per cent of thf
weight of the wood, may be condensed
into a liquid called pyrol igneous acid,
and from it are obtained wood alcohol,
acetate of lime and wood tars. A cord
of wood weighing 4,000 pounds produces
about 2,G"iO pouudsof pyroligueous acid
and 7 CO pounds of charcoal. The pvro
ligneous acid from one cord of wood
produces 9 gallons of 82 per cent crude
wood alcohol, 200 pounds of acetate of
lime and about 25 gallons of tar, besides
35 bushels of charcoal. After the pyro
ligueous acid is neutralized with lime
the wood alcohol is distilled off, the
lime holding the acetic acid in solution
After the separation of the wood spirit
the remaining liquid is boiled down in
open pans to a sugar, which is dried,
and becomes the acetate of lime 01 com
merce. Acetate of lime is used for mak
ing acetic acid. Fully three-fifths of all
the wood alcohol and acetate of lime
produced in the world are made in the
United States. Fully 15,000 acres per
year are cleared for this purpose. Wood
alcohol affords a perfect substitute for
grain alcohol for manufacturing and
mechanical purposes and at less than
one-third the cost. It is used principally
as a solvent in the making of shellac
varnish, iu making celluloid, photo
graphic paper, etc. It makes many
beautiful dye tints. It is antiseptic and
much used for liniments and for skin
rubbing in bathhouses. New York
