HUMBLE BUT USEFUL
A Short Sketch of the Evolu¬
tion of the Match.
How Matches Stand in the World as a
Factor of Economy.
A
In his address at thc opening session of
the British association, Prof. Lyon Play¬
fair, 31. P., the president, said: “Let
me take a single example of how even a
jietty manufacture, improved by the
teachings of science, affects the comforts
ar, d enlarges the resources of mankind.
When I was a boy the only way of ob¬
taining a light was by the tinder-box,
with its quadruple materials, flint and
steel, burnt rags or tinder, and a sulphur
match. If everything went well, if thc
box could be found, and the air was dry,
alight could be obtained in two minutes;
but very often the time occupied was
nniiili longer, and the process became a
great triul to the serenity of thc temper.
The consequence of this was that a fire or
burning lamp was kept alight through
thc day. Old Gerard, in his herbal,
tells us how certain fungi were used to
t arry fire from one part of the country to
the. other. The tinder box long held its
position ns a great discovery in the arts.
1 he pyxidicula igniaria of the Itomans
appears to have been much the same
implement, though a little ruder than the
Hint and steel which Philip thc Good put
into the collar of thc Golden Fleece, in
3 P-Mi, ns the representative of high knowl¬
edge in the progress of the arts. It con
tinued to prevail till 18:53. when phos¬
phorus matches were introduced, though
I have been amused to find that there arc
n few venerable ancients in London who
will .stick to the tinder-box, and for
whom a few shops keep a small supply.
Phosphorus was no new discovery, for it
had been obtained by an Arabian called
Bechtel in the eighth century, IIowcv
cr, it was forgotten, and it was rediscov¬
ered by Brandt, who made it out of very
stinking materials, in 1(1(59. Other di.s
coveries had, however, to be made before
it could be used for lucifer matches.
’1 he science of combustion was only de¬
veloped on the discovory of oxygen a
century later. Time had to elapse be¬
fore chemical analysis showed the kind
>>f bodies which could be added to
phosphorus to make it ignite readily. So
it was not till 183**} that matches became
a partial success. Intolerable they then
were, dangerously inflammable, horribly
poisonous to the makers, and injurious
to the lungs of consumers. It required
another discovery by Sehrottcrin 1845, to
change poisonous wax into innocuous red
brick phosphorus in order that these de¬
lects might bo remedied and to give us
the safety match of the present day.
Now, what have these successive discov¬
eries in science done for the nation in
this single manufacture by an economy
“f time? If, before 18;}:?, wo had made
the same demand for light that we now
do when wc daily consume eight match
c per head of the population, the tinder
box could have supplied the demand
under the most favorable conditions by
an expenditure of one quarter of an hour.
The lucifer match supplies a light in fif¬
teen seconds on each occasion, or in two
minutes for thc whole day. Putting
these differences into a year, the venera¬
ble ancient who still sticks to his tinder
box would require to spend ninety hours
yearly in the production of light, while
the user of lucifer matches spends twelve
hours; so that the latter has an economy
of seventy-eight, hours yearly, or about
ten working days. Measured by cost of
production at 1 shilling C pence daily,
the economy of time represented in inon
cy to our population is £26,000,000 annu¬
ally. This is a curious instance of the
manner in which science leads to econo¬
my of time and wealth, even in a small
manufacture.
Gates .Ajar.
The touching pathos of childhood is
shown in the following: The death of
a well-known gentleman had called forth
many expressions of sympathy from
friends, in the way of a profusion of
flowers, in beautiful designs. After they
had been placed around him as he lay in
the casket, his little daughter Alice, of
4 years, was led by her mamma into thc
room to look upon the face of her dead
papa. She was naturally attracted by
the flowers, and by the design of “Thc
Gates Ajar.” Iler mamma told her that
“the beautiful gate” had opened, and
papa had passed through and would
never come back to them again. The
child looked steadily at her papa’s face for
a few moments, then climbed up so she
could reach over and kiss his cold lips,
saying: “Papa, dear, speak to me and
say you will come to 'the beautiful gate’
and meet your little Alice some day.”—
Radon Courier.
A Judge’s Charge.
Tennessee’s distinguished historian
Judge Haywood, was once presiding
in a case where n woman was being tried
for some offense in which the evidence was
clearly against her. At thc close of the
trial the Judge, in giving the case to the
jury said : “Gentlemen, you have heard
tlut evidence and you know the law.”
Then, after a pause: “There is no punish¬
ment a man can inflict upon a woman and
still be a man.” The woman was acquitted
by the jugw without leaving the box.
PELHLS OF THOUGHT.
“ As you love me, let not your tongue
give way to slang.”
Air and light are among thc best med¬
icines known to man.
A sneer is often the weak subterfuge
of imprudent ignorance.
The silent eye is often a more powerful
conquerer than thc noisy tongue.
In your homo study refinement and
comfort, but study economy also.
If a married couple avoid the first
quarrel they will never have a second.
No success in life can be so desirable
that man can afford to sell his integrity
for it.
Thc yoke a man creates for himself by
wrong-doing will breed hate in the kind¬
liest nature.
Nothing more clearly indicates the
true gentleman than a desire evinced to
oblige or accommodate.
There are three things in speech that
ought to be considered before they arc
spoken—the manner, the place and the
time.

the same with him for the purpose of

here saw lying upon the table a sealed
<tt<r at t i(ss<( to licrsOif. thinking its
presence there to be an oversight on the
part of Chip in not promptly delivering,
she opened the letter, and on reading it
discovered the true inwardness of the
same. Not wishing to have Chip know
that she had surprised his little secret,
she had a new envelope properly prepared
and addressed ... close imitation of the
original and left the letter where she had
found it. The letter graphically de
srribed t,lie trip from San Francisco to
Hongkong; it dwelt particularly upon a
terrible storm at sea, during which nearly
every one was seasick except the writer;
Chip’s arrival home was touched upon;
the joy of his mother and family was
feelingly described; finally the date of
liis intended return was given and a
answer requested. Chip, having secured
liis certlicatc, departed hence as arranged,
and, sure enough, the last China mail
brought the wonderful letter from Chip,
nnd, no doubt, when he receives the an¬
swer, which was promptly sent, liis heart
will swell with pride and gratification,
and his importance among thc circle of
liis acquaintance iu his native home bo
duly increased by his foreign correspond¬
ence .—San Francisco Argonaut. \
Tho Chinese Minister.
A Washington Letter to the Springfield
Republican says: The Chinese Minister
is a man of 60, who was a Governor of
one of the Provinces in China. After lie
had made his fortune the Emperor saw
that he was getting rich too fast, and,
much to his disgust, exiled him here on a
•siilary of $25,000 a year and all expenses
paid. For the Chinese Government is
liberal. If a dinner is given at the lega¬
tion the Government pays for it, and the
same if he travels or keeps a carriage,
while all thc expenses of the legation arc
defrayed from home. When he came
the Minister left his wives at home, but
after a while he had sent over from China
a little thing, not more than 18 years old,
and she is thc only woman at the lega¬
tion. She is kept very secluded, and
only allowed to visit the house of Sir.
Bartlett, formerly correspondent of the
Republican nnd now Secretary to tho
legation. About once a week she is
driven over and spends the afternoon
with the ladies of his family, but they
are not allowed to admit others to see
her. Then she trips back to her carriage,
if a woman on such little feet could be
said to trip, and is not seen out again for
another week. I have known ladies who
had an idea of the day she would visit
Mrs, Bartlett, to spend the whole after¬
noon in a neighboring window to get a
glimpse of her. When the Chinese want
to please people they send them some of
the finest ten, which comes direct to
them, not in the great boxes which you
see, but in small eases holding a few
pounds. This is the finest tea that ever
comes to this country, and those who are
lucky enough to receive a package prize
it very highly. It is n little stronger
than the tea you buy at thc stores, and
so much more fragrant and pleasant to
thc taste that it hardly seems like the
same plant. And I doubt very much
whether it is.

Baby Haynes little that he 1
was so
couldn’t drink very well. One morning
he spilled his mug of milk nil over his
bib.
“He must have a clean bib,” said
Mamma Haynes. “Will you bring me
one, Weezv, from iny bureau?”
“Yes’m,” said Weezy, running away
in high glee. She was always proud to
bn sent on Arands.
Next moment, she came flying back
mouth and eyes wide open.
“O mamma, mamma,” cried she,
“there’s a mousie in thc drawer ! there’s'
a inousie in thc drawer 1
“A mouse?” said mamma, quietly.
“Well wouldn’t he let my little girl have
baby’s bib ?’’
“O mamma, mamma ! I’m just as
seared 1” cried Weezy, still hopping up
and down.
“Afraid of a pretty little moasc ? Whrt
a silly Weezy !” said mamma. “Didn’t
he scamper away as fast ns he could ?”
“No, no, mamma! I shut him up
tight 1”
“You did? Oh, then, I think papt
must catch the poor little fellow,” said
mamma.
She put the baby iD the cradle and
wei.l to call Papa Haynes.
Papa seized the tongs, and walked up
stairs. Behind him followed mammr,
with Weezy clinging to her dress. Be¬
hind Weezy tip-toed Phebe, the nurse
girl. Phebe wanted to do something to
help, so she brought the mouse-trap.
Last of all came Bridget, swinging the
rolling-pin.
“Open the drawer gently,” said papa
to mamma. “I’ll try to catch thc mouse
when He jumps.”
Mamma pulled out thc drawer a little.
Papa stood close by with the tongs, but
the mouse didn’t jump.
Then mamma pulled out thc drawer :
little farther.
“See 1 sec 1 papa. There’s the mouse!”
cried Weezy, pointing her little finger to¬
ward a corner of the drawer.
Papa thrust the tongs and drew out—
Well, what do you suppose ? Why, a
wee gray tassel ! Mamma must have
dropped it off her sleeve in taking baby’s
clean frock from the bureau.
“Dear, dear !” laughed papa. What
poor eyes our Weezy must have ? I’ve
a great mind to buy her a pair of spec¬
tacles. ”
After that, they all went down stairs,
—papa with the tongs, mamma with
Weezv, Bridget, with the rolling-pin, nnd
Phebe with the mouse-trap. And this
was the end of Wcczy's fright about the
mouse .—Penn Shirley.

Supports for House Plants.
When we grow fuchsias, or other tall
slender plants, says the American Affri
culturist, some support becomes neces
sary. We are using as supports to h'l
plants of a slender spreading growth,
small Iron rods with holes punched
through wires, them. Through these all hoi 68 we
pass which reach out on aides,
and furnish support to all branches that
the need least. it, without When being painted, conspicuous in
hardly be noticed. Ibe branches they will
seem
to stipport themselves, Of course, a
small rod of iron thrust into the ground
as one woilld a stick, will not remain
firm very long. To prevent this, we in
structed the blacksmith to weld two
S’S’SiaSTS.tiri i
each proa, thus formed out at right
angles to the rod j then to bend the
prongs down again at right angles. This
gives a very strong support to the rod,
when the three prongs are inserted in the
R „jj 0 f ; be pot. They brace against each
other, and the pot will tip over before
*he rod will. If vines are to be grown
about the bar, and through holes, as
may be necessary. The cost of such
supports is trifling compared with that
,re JJ’ 8e8 at Fee< ^ store s and imple
ment houses. They may be constructed
iu vaiiousdesigns, according to individ
ual taste, and are preferable in many
respects to the former.
Farmers Who Became Presidents.
It is noteworthy that most of the
Presidents of the United States were
reared on farms, or retired from active
life to spend the evening of their days
amid the quiet and retirement of rural
Jackson, scenes. Washington, Adams, Jefferson.
and so down through the list,
Grant and Garfield, were all at one lime
or another cultivators of the soil, and
fond of farm life or blooded stock.
