In the muglirolled sheet of hemlock bark.
The pioneer babv sleeps as soft,
Tho' round her the forest frowns vast snd

Bings high, .^nd the heasl tvith a crash is leaping hv. And the shaft of sunshine comes and goes. And the wild bee fancies her cheek a rose.

THE   ABUSE   OF   FUEL,
Americana Prone to Overheat Their LIt- iBi; Rooiisa.
The high pricos of coal, caused by thp strike now ending, have carried with tbem a salutary lesson. It has roiuluded our i>eople Ihat they bave beon using fuel wastefully. Thc nat¬ ural resources of Iho United States are so groat Ihnt something out of the usual ordor Is necessary to convey the lesson that there  Is a  limit  10 tbcni.
But It Is not morely lu tho niatter of wastefulness that fuel hns boon abused. The sanitary argument Is ovon stronger than that based on ocoDoniy, In Amer¬ lcn tve Indulge In hot ruoins to a de- gri.c unknown In othor pnrls ot the world, i-ome of those who lecture on tbe subject probably orr on thp other side. Thc cold rooms of Germany nnd Frnnce have their drawbacks, and thorp Is reasou to believe that they are often Insuflleleutly heated. But that docs not. In nny degree, excuse thc bot rooms to which Americans are very commonly suttjected. It is not the ilt.Kroo of cold which Is so fatal lo health as tho sudden translllop from beat to cold.

Sl. Pelersburg. llussla.-Hefore thp spring thousanils of FInlunders will have died of starvation. Thousands are notv living upon breAd made from un¬ ripe r.vo aud barley, which hungry htirsrs refuse to eat. Thousands are living upon hrt.ad baked from the bar¬ ley husks aud straw. Hetween 4(X).t>tX» aud 5011.11110 i>ersons are literally starv¬ ing at present. Beforo the spring, un less Government relief Is Hdot|uate, a creat proportion of these will have illtNl. In ISiiT, when the crops failed, the famine tvas not as bad. and 100,000 persons died of starvation. This yonr. Ill addition to tbe failure of the crops the rnlns havo spoiled tho fishing. So eoinpleto Is the dovastntlon lliat tbon¬ sauds of birds have starvotf to death, unable to find suffleient to sustain life.
The avernge grain crop gathered lu Finland Is valuiMl at KID.lSkl.tKKl, The estiuiatetl value of the llHrj crop Is *1X1,000.00(), Whllp this loss Is dlstrlb- iitt.d throughout Finland. It Ih almost total In the norllicru third of the coun¬ try, wbere aro tho provinces of I'lea- borg. Kuopic, Vasn, St. Michael and portions of Vlborg,
Peas and lieaus gouerally have fallt.d and thp potato crop has not boeu gnth- ercil. The hay haa rotted or boen swept away by floods. The disaster Is due to the late spring, the nearly con¬ tinuous chilly rains and ihe enrly frost, which xvas recorded on August 10, In the north thore have been only half n do7.pn days whon It did not rain,
TllP present trop failure Is the worst that haa been t'xperlentM'd for tho last Ilfl.v years. II Is liopetl. however, that better methods of eommunlcatlou will fat-llltatp the work ot relief nnd avoid wliolesale deaths by hunger anil ty¬ phus.
There are all told about WXI parlslies In Finland. Onp hundred and nlnel.v- four of these parishes are now nearly. destitute. The Agrlculturnl Hoard has roceivetl reports from 140 of the HM parishes, showing that 100 have food supplies to suffice thein until Christmas only,
Thp uiiripp ryp nud barlpy which the people nre forced lo use mnke a bitter brt^ad, while the broad baked from bar¬ ley husks and straw, mixed wllh a lit¬ tle Hour, contains llllle nutrition and Is extremely unwholesome.
Count Bobrlokoff, the Governor-Gon- ornl of Finland, foreseeing the famine. Issued an appeal for help from Uussla. A voluntary relief eommlitee waa or¬ ganized tiy Flidandcrs, with branches throughout the country. The Anglo- American Church here Is aiding this committee.
The Senate hns decided to spend S.IT.'i.OOO on publle works In Finland to relieve tho suffering, and has appro¬ priated I500.UOO for grain to he sold lo Iho people nl cost. Besides this $70,- (10(1 will he expended In encouraging t-ottnge Industries.
The provinces and certalu cities of Finland have voted for relief xrork' mouoy aniouuttug In all to $,">00,OCK».
The voluntary relief eonimittee hns i-eeelvoil SIllo.tHXI, but It Is undprstood that all this sum has been nlready ex- pi.nded.

The Crown Princess wns staying at Salsburg, her husband being In Dree- doll, where ho Is couvalescliiK tram a severe hunting accident, "That her night was iiromrtlllated Is manlfeat from the following passage In a letler which the Princess left:

The Princess was apparently accom¬ panied In her flight hy one o( her brothers, either Archduke Joaepli or Leoiwld. who. It Is statotl. are ebam- plunlng ber nctlon. It Is hellCTMl that she Is now lu Switzerland or Paris.
