A Betting Experience.
I had often been aaked by my friend Ber
nard Snipe to take an interest in horse-rac
ing—or, rather, in betting. For months I
Had resisting tempting offers of assistance
and advice which were to make my fortune.
The fact is, I knew nothing*whatever about
horse-racing, and I had no money to spare
to pay for a practical experience of the
“art” "of betting. Bernard Snipe had, on
the other hand, made a study of “book
making.” He was the deputy station-mas
ter at an old borough town on one of the
chief lines in the Kingdom. He betted
with passengers and he betted with railway

pretty much as he pleased.
It was in September, 1871, that he pre
vailed upon me to go to Doncaster to see the
great St. Leger race. I consented to visit
the famous course more for the sake of the
t ‘sight’ than for the betting. However, in
order to enjoy a little of everything, I put
£3 10s in my pocket; - and on the Wednes
day when the Leger was run for, I was
conveyed in a special train to Doncaster.
My railway fare and dinner absorbed ten
shillings of my cash, and with the remain
ing^£3 1 proceeded to the course. I re
member seeing the first race won by Count
LagraDge’s Cosmopolite. I saw large sums
of money change bands, and 1 at last
thought 1 might win a £10 note on the
Leger.
1 look round for Bernard Snipe, but he
had left me. I could not find him, 1 re
turned to the quarters occupied by the bet
ting fraternity and I could hear the praises
of Kettledrum sounded above all the rest of
the horses. Kettledrum was the favorite
in the betting, and consequently 1 made
him my favorite by investing all my £3 in his
cause. At length the horses came out for
their preliminary “canter.” Kettledrum
w as pointed ont to me, and I almost wor
shipped the animal. “They’re off!” was
the first cry I heard, and after considerable
excitement there were immense cries of
“Caller Ou wins!” and to my utter aston
ishment Caller Ou did win. The thought
suddenly Hashed upon me that I was eight
miles away from home; had lost the only
friend I knew, and not a farthing in my
pocket towards paying my railway fare.
I was in a strange place; I was almost
in despair. X wandered about the refresh
ment booths to ascertain if any one 1 knew
was there. I w r as not successful. I came
to the conclusion that I had made a fool of
myself by visiting Doncaster, and a stiil
greater fool of myself by staking £3 on the
lottery of a horse-race, and leaving myself
without the means of getting home.
Sudden!}’ I was tapped on the shoulder.
1 turned round, and to my delight beheld
Bernard Snipe.
“Well, how have you gone on?” he
asked.
“Lost every farthing of my money,” was
my disconsolate reply.
“What did you back?” he inquired.
“Kettledrum.”
“Kettledrum I What a fool you’ve been.
Why didn’t you ask me about it? He wasn’t
in the race. Tne rain had made the course
too heavy for him,” ran on critical Ber
nard.
“It’s all very well to tell me these tilings,
now the mischief is done,” I remarked.
“I know I have made a fool of myself by
coming here at all. Lend me half a sover
eign, and I’ll make the first loss the last,
and go home by the next train.”
“Not me, old boy,” he replied; and then,
in an encouraging tone, he said: “Look
here, they are betting eight to one against
Cosmopolite for the Corporation Plate. I
am going to put two sovereigns upon it. If
you will put a sovereign upon it, I’ll lend
you the money.”
“No, no. Once bitten, twice shy,” 1
answered. “Cosmopolite won the first
race, and they’ll never Jet the same horse
win two races in one day.”
“It’s right, I tell you. I have a friend
in Count Lagrange’s si able, and be has given
me the ‘tip,’ ” put in Bernard.
“Well, Pll never pay yoivback if I lose,”
I informed him.
‘Til trust you for that,” he answered as
he ran off toward a betting man who was
under a huge umbrella bawling to a crowd
of people in front of him.
Presently he returned and handed me a
small ticket, at the same time informing me
that if the horse w T on I must present the
ticket to the man with the umbrella, and
lie would hand me nine sovereigns.
The bell rung to clear the course. Again
there was the preliminary canter. Once
more a score of voices from behind glasses
cried out, .“They’re off.” I became fear
fully excited, but when I heard shouts from
all sides that “Cosmopolite wins,” I scarce
ly knew how to control my delight. Cos
mopolite did win. I w as the first individ
ual who accosted the man with the umbrel
la, and, having presented the ticket, he
handed me nine sovereign. At about the
same moment Bernard Snipe came and re
ceived eighteen sovereigns. 1 returned him
the sovereign he had advanced for me, and
at once darted into the middle of the crow r d.
He called after me, but I would not heed
him. I ran as fast as a horse to the railway-
station. In a quarter of an hour I w as on
my return journey home. I called to see a
friend at a large town in the Midlands, and
I ordered a new suit of clothes and a hat.
I paid cash and received the usual discount.
In another hour I w as at home with just the
same amount of money in my pockets as I
had started with in the morning.
In my new' suit I was married a month
afterward.
While I was enjoying the honeymoon, I
received a letter from a friend. In it I read
the following passage:
“Bernard Snipe, through his love for
betting, has become involved. He has em
bezzled £360 belonging to the railway com
pany, and bolted to Australia.”
Then I related the above story to my
bride.
“You’ll never bet again, will you?” she
asked, as she patted me on the cheek.
“Never, my dear.” And I have kept
my word.
True Stories About Animals.
claws grows very long and require cut
ting. This is a particular operation.
Care should be taken not to cut up into
the blood veins, which can easily be
seen by holding the bird's claw in front
of a strong light, and then not cutting
within a sixteenth of an inch of the red
vein. There is an impression in the
minds of most people that the only use
for cattle-fish is as a bill-sharpener, but
this is wrong. The cnitle-ti-li is a mol-
lusk caught in the Cnina Sea, and is
largely used by all manufacturers of
tooth powder, its salty particles readily
removing the tartar. All seed-eating
birds are fond of this, its salty taste
seeming to give them a relish for food
Birds, when proper care are taken of
them, are rarely attacked with disease.
If owners of these pets would first see
that the cage is kept perfectly clean
and well supplied with plenty of graves
or gravel paper for the bird to peck up
on, and that the seed is ot the very best
quality, and that they are led and given
a bath at a regular hour, daily, then
birds, if kept from draughts of air, and
no sugar candy, figs, raisins or cake fed
them, they will sing from ten to eleven
months out of the year. The poor
German families keep birds for many
years, but wealthy people are apt to
kill them with kindness. In cold
weather they shonld be kept in a room
where the temperature is even, and
where the heat is not over sixty-live or
seventy degrees during the daytime,
nor below forty-live to fifty in the
night. If no fire is kept up during the
night, in very severe wintry weather a
newspaper should be secured over and
around the top and outside of the cage s
from bedtime to sunshine, to keep the
bird safely comfortable. At no season
of the year should it be forgotten that
they must not be placed in a draught.
Asthma or a sudden cold attacks them
often when the cause is not suspected.
In the winter time give them all the
sunlight you can duriug the day. In
summer keep them shaded from the di
rect rays of the sun. In the frosty sea
son avoid keeping them where it is too
hot, in your room where your cage
hangs, or you will find they get easily
“stuffed up” and wheezy in the r notes,
in consequence of the over-heated air
they are forced to breathe near the ceil

every day or staple food you can snppy
them with. Avoid too much hemp seed.
A very little of this latter, and not too
often. If they get husky in voice,
prepare a paste, half and half, o£ very
hard boiled grated egg and arrow root,
with a dusting of cayenne peper and
dry cracker occasionally. Vary this
with the seed food, and in the drinking
cup place a piece of sulphate of iron,
or a dozen drops of paregoric, for three
or four days at a time. This will relieve
them shortly*. Keey the cage clean.
Let the birds have the fresh daily bath
at all seasons. Feed regularly, and
avoid the draught of cold air we have
mentioned, and they will do well con

Strange Tastes in Better.—Tlie
principal causes why butter is found
to be badly “off flavor” are, first,
browse and weeds in the pastures, or
in the hay, or coarse roots and other
unsuitable feed in the stable; second,
bad water, or too little of it; third,
heating the cow’s blood by running
or abuse; fourth, unclean milking;
fifth, setting the milk in open pans
which are exposed to the fumes of cook
ing, or to stove-smoke or tobacco-
smoke, or to cold victuals set near;
sixth, to keeping the cream in un
cleansed vessels, or teo long before
churning; seventh, the use of impure
salt; eighth, putting down the butter in
unsuitable or tll-preparqd tubs or other
packages; ninth, storing it in dirty
cellars, or beside kerosene, salt or
smoked meat, or fish, or any other
strong-odored thing. Butter is the
most susceptible of taint of any article
of food, and when tainted, even slight
ly has lost half its value. A person
may have every other qualification for
the business that can be thought of, yet
if lacking in scrupulous neatness, is
utterly unfit to be employed in butter-
making. A farmer whose wife is a
slattern may succeed in sheep or hogs,
but never as a dairyman. Yet let every
man remember that at least half of oht
bad butter was made so before the milk
left the utable.

Brown Paper Against the Cold.—
The “old-woman’s” remedy for a “cold
on the chest.” a sore throat or a bruise,
which consisted in an application of
brown paper steeped in beer or vine
gar, owed its efficacy to the heat-retain
ing properties of the paper. A wet
pad of this material, as far as the sur
face next the skin was concerned, acted
almost as well as a layer of wet linen
rag, protected with thick coverings oi
flannel. In short, stout paper of the
commonest sort is an effective non-con
ductor, and may be advantageously
employed as a covering for beds or to
eke out scanty clothing. A piece of
thick paper inserted between the lining
and the cloth of a waist-coat or in the
back of a thin coat will render it warm
as well as light. The suggestion is a
small one but it is simple to carry
into effect, and will be found effective.
One day, children, when the menag
erie had been quiet for a long time, the
Hyena was looking so lonesome and

oan’t prove it,” said the hyena. “You
pel-i-ean,” said til; elephant, which

tried to say something, the elephant
asked him if he hadn’t just got off a

he thought he remembered seeing 1dm

spoke up and said they’d had enough of

if soft felt would be worn much this win.

ways such a tease.
The early settlers of Maine found, be
sides its red-faced owners, other and
abundant sources of annoyance and danger.
The majestic forests which then waved
where a thousand villages now siand, were
the homes ot' innumerable wild and savage
animals. Often at night was the farmer
roused from sleep by a noise without,
which told that bruin was storming the
sheep-pen or pig-sty, or was laying violent
paws on some unlucky calf, and often on a
cold winter evening did the family roil a
large log against the door, and with beat
ing hearts draw closer around the fire, as
the dismal howl of the wolf echoed through
the woods. The wolf was the most fero
cious, bloodthirsty but cowardly of all
their enemies, rarely attacking a man, and
seeking his victims with the utmost perti
nacity. One of the pioneers on the Saco
river was one autumn engaged in felling
trees at some distance from his house. His
little son, eight years old, was in tile habit
while his mother was busy with household
cares, of running into the fields and woods
around the house, often going to where his
father was at work. One day, after the
frost had robbed the trees of their foliage,
his lather left his work sooner than usual,
and started for home. J ust on the edge of
the forest he saw a curious pile of leather.
Without stopping to think what had made
it, he cautiously removed the leaves, when
what was his astonishment to find his own
darling boy there sound asleep. It was but
the work of a moment to take up the little
sleeper, put in his place a small log, re
place the leaves, and conceal himself amou;
the bushes to watch the result. After
waiting there a short time he heard the
wolf’s distant howl, quickly followed by
another, until the woods seemed alive with
fearful sounds. The howls came nearer,
and in a few moments a gaunt, savage wolf
leaped into the opening, closely followed
by the whole pack. The leader sprang
directly upon the pile of leaves, and in an
instant scattered them in every direction.
When he saw the cheat his look of fierce
ness and confidence changed -to one of
abject fear. He shrank back, cowered to
the ground, and passively awaited his fate.
The rest, enraged by the supposed cheat,
fell upon him, tore him to pieces, and de
voured him on the spot. When they had
finished their comrade they wheeled around,
plunged into the forest and disappeared,
and within five minutes after their first ap
pearance not a wolf was to be seen. The
excited father pressed his child to liis
bosom and thanked the kind Providence
which led him there to save his dear boy.
The boy, after playing till he was weary
had lain down and fallen asleep, and in
that situation the wolf had found him and
covered him with leaves, until he could
bring his comrades to the feast, but him
self had furnished the meai.
What There is in Wheat.—The
wheat grain is a truit consisting of a
seed and its coverings. All the middle
part of the grain is occupied by large,
thin cells, lull of a powuery substance,
which contains alt the starch of the
wheat. Outside the central starchy
mass is a single row of squarish cells
tilled with a yellowish material, very
rich in nitrogenous, that is, flesh-form
ing matter. Beyond this again there
arc six thin coats or coverings, contain
ing much mineral matter, both of pot
ash and phosphates. The outermost
coat is of but little value. The mill
products of these coverings of the seed
are peculiarly rich in nutriment, and
fine flour is robbed of a large percent
age of valuable and liutricious food.
Middlings not only contain more fibrin
and mineral matter than fine flour, but
also more tat. The fibrous matter, or
outer coat, which is indigestible, forms
oiie-sixih of the bran, but notone-hun-
clreth ot the tine flour. Wheat con
tains the greatest quantity of gluten
and the smallest of starch; rye. a
medium proportion of both, while in
barley, oats, and corn the largest pro
portion of starch and the smallest of
gluten are to be found. In practice 100
pounds of tlqur make from 133 to 137
pounds of bread, a good average being
136 pounds; heicce a barrel of 196
pounds should yield 266 one pound
loaves.
IVOOD-Ashes.—The value of ashes as
a fertilizer, depends principally upon
the potash and phosphoric acid they
contain. The percentage of these varies
largely, in ashes from different woods,
varying from 10 per cent, to 24 per
cent, lor the former, and 4 per cent, to
12 per cent, for the latter. This would
give not far from four to five pounds of
uotaslt to a bushel of ordinary mixed
unleached ashes, which, reckoned at 4
1-2 cents per pound—the present market
value of potash in the commercial ferti
lizers—w ould give the value of a bushel
as Irom 18 to 22 1-2 cents. With due
allowance for the phosphoric acid and
the lime—the latter making up the
largest part ot the ashes—it may be seen
that a bushel of unleached ashes, is
worth from 25 to 30 cents at the present
time. Ashes, to secure the best results,
should be thoroughly mingled with the
soil. In this way, the best physical, as
well as chemical effects are obtained.
It is sell evident that crops requiring
larger amounts of potash, will be the
most beuefitted by the application of
ashes, as the root crops, cabbage, to
bacco, etc. Forty to fifty bushels per
acre, is a good application.
Cors-Fkb Hens.—Corn-fed hens do
not lay in winter, and especially when
snow covers the ground, because there
is nothing in corn which furnishes tne
material tor the white and shell of the
egg, hut abundant material for fat and
rudimentary yolks. As soon as spring
comes, corn-fed hens commence laying
and continue to do so simply because
they are able to supplement this food
by- grass, worms, insects and other al
buminous substances, and also find ma
terials for egg shells in bits of lime,
stone and the shells and debris of a va
riety of decaying matter that we have
no conception ot. On the other hand,
when wheat is fed to hens there is fat
enough in it to supply all that is
needed for the yolk, and gluten enough
to make the white and lime enough to
furnish the shell, and it does not seem
difiicult now to understand why corn-
fed liens should not lay, as they do not,
and why wheat-fed hens should lay as
they do.
Catching Hawks.—“Some one re
cently asked Fanny Field, and others,
how to keep hawks from carrying oft
chickens. My plan is to catch the
hawks. Being much annoyed by them,
1 set a steel trap on top of a pole set up
right in the ground, and have caught
in the last year seventeen hawks and
five owls. Set the trap oil a pole Six or
seven feet high in the open field, one
or two hundred rods from the house.
Xo bait needed. Traps I use cost
thirty-live cents a piece. I wish all
farmers would use this. 1 have no
doubt that farmers lose annually five
dollars each from hawks and owls, to say
nothing about the destruction of quail
and partridge and other game. At first
glance this seems a small matter, but
in the aggregate it is thousands of dol
lars.”
Api-les for Cattle.—Apples stimu
late the appetite ot a horse or cow won
derfully. The ration should he made
small at first. It produces a great flow
of milk in cows, and gives to the horse
a fine glossy coat. Apples arc excellent
for fattening cattle, counteracting the
tendency- to feverish action engendered
by cornmeal, and giving a fine flat or to
the beef. .
Plum Pudding Glace.—Stem and
seed tbree-fourths of a pound of laisins;
simmer them, together with a lew-
sticks of cinnamon, in a quart of new
milk; beat up the yolks of four or five
eggs add half a pound of white sugar;
pound iu a mortar one-fourth of a
pound of sweet almonds; strain the
milk, put it on again to boil, and add
the yolks of the eggs; remove from the
fire, and when cool add the almonds
and the raisins which were boiled in
the milk, but not the spice; cut some
citron very fine or thin; also preserved
ginger, if you have it; when well mix
ed add a quart of cream, and freeze;
beat to a stiff troth a quart of cream;
flavor with wine, whisky, or rum, as
preferred; sweeten, and place in spoon
fuls around the pudding.
Sweet Pickle.—Three pounds brown
sugar, two quarts Tinegar, seveu
pounds of fruit and spices to taste.
Cherry Compote.—This is a ‘very
delicious form in which to serve the
cherry, and those whotry it once, will
be certain to “try, try again.” Cut off
the stalks of some of the ripest and most
highly-flavored cherries. Cut the
stalks about half-way up; wash them in
cold watei, and allow to drain until
they are entirely dry. If you have
cherry- syrup use it. If not, make some
plain sugar syrup in the usual way.
Throw in the cherries and let them
boil rapidly for four, five or six boils.
Remove the scum, if there is any, and
allow it to get cold. Xow place in
deep glass dish or compotier. Take
especial pains to have all the stalks
point upw-aid. Xow pour in the syrup;
add the juice of a lemon.

Didn’t Catch His Meaning.—“Did
you make the train?” asked the anx
ious questioner.
“Xo,” said “smarty,” “it was male
in the ear-shop.”
“I mean did you catch the train,”
with a slightly embarrassed manner.
“Of course not; it’s not infections,”
was the cute reply.
“Well, yon darned fool, did you ar
rive at the depot iu time?”
“Xo, you infernal idiot, I arrived in
a barouche.”
“Great heavens!” shouted the ques
tioner, “did you board the cars?”
“Jumpin’ Jerusalem !” howled the
smart man once more, “you know I
don’t keep a boarding-house.”
A Cautious w.riter will always be on
his guard against the accumulation of
proofs, lest that should happen to him
which is said to have occurred to Bishop
Bloomfield. After the learned Bishop
had preached a sermon on the existence
otGod, an admiring farmer was heard
to say: “Our Bishop’s a main good
preacher, but I can’t help thinking as
how there be a God, after all.”
Jones, who was inveighing against
the short-comings of Benson, a Cus
tom House Inspector, was reproved by
Brownlow with the charitable remark :
“You shouldn’t judge Benson so harsh
ly, Jones; put yourself in bis place,
now”— “That’s just what I have
been trying to do the last six months,”
broke in Jones, unthinkingly giving
himself away.
General Debility.—In this com
plaint the good effects of the Vegetine
are realized immediately after com
mencing to take it; as debility denotes
deficiency of the blood, and Vegetine
acts directly upon the blood. There is
no remedy that will restore the healtli
from debilily like the Vegetine. It is
nourishingand strengthening, purifies
the blood regulates the ho vels, quiets
the nervous system, acts directly- upon
the secretions, and arouses the whole
system to action. It has never failed in
this complaint.
A gentleman who was interceding
with Bishop Bloomfield for a clergy
man who was constantly in debt, and
had more than once been insolvent, but
who was a man of talents and elo
quence, concluded his eulogism by
saying, "In fact, my lord, he is quite a
St. Paul.” “Yes,” said the bishop,
dryly, “in prisons oft.”
To Remove Oil Marks From Wall
Paper.—“Oil marks” on wall-paper
or the marks where inconsiderate peo
ple rest their heads, are a sore grief to
good housekeepers, but they can.be re
moved without much trouble. Take
pipe clay or fuller’s-earth, and make
into a paste, about as thick as rich
cream, with cold water; lay it on the
stain gently, without rubbing it in;
leave it on all night. It will be dry by
morning, when it can be brushed oft’,
and unless an old stain, the grease spot
will have disappeared. If old, renew
the application.
Firm Butter Without Ice.—In
families where the dairy is small, a
good plan is to get a very large sized
porous, earl hern flower pot, with an
extra large saucer. Half till the saucer
with water, set in it a trivet or light
stand; upon this set your butter; over
the whole invert the flower pot, letting
the rim of it rest in and be covered by
the water; then close the hole in the
bottom of the pot with a cork; dash
water over it frequently, and the butter
will be as firm and cool as if trom an
ice house.

Drop It.
A party of four were playing poker, at
Decdwood, and the bets were running high.
A couple of the boys got to bucking at one
another, and a huge pile of chips and green
backs was soon piled between them. At
last one called the other, and he showed
three queens. The other quitely turned
over three kings.
“Take the money.” said the patron of
ladies, as quietly as though asking the other
to drink.
The man of many kings readied over to
take in the pot, when one of the other play
ers interfered and claimed that one of the
kings in the hand of the winner belonged to
him unless there were five in the pack, as
he laid down two of them when the heavy
betting began. He of the queens rose up,
quietly pulled out a murderous-looking bull
dog revolver, which he placed in unpleas
ant proximity.
“Drop it!”
He dropped it, you bet; and then, with
out another word, the game went on as
though nothing had happened.
A good story is told of Prince Alex
ander of Holland. The Prince, a
young man of rather staid and literary-
tastes, paid a visit to Berlin last sum
mer, and a review was given in his
honor by the Imperial court. Military
pageants form an integral part of every
grand reception in the Prussian capi
tal ; but Prince Alexander, with little
inclination for soldiery, sat in silent
contemplation while the troops were
defiling befoiehim. All at once the
Crown Prince drew the guest’s atten
tion to an Uhlan regiment with the re
mark that they were “a fine body of
men.” “Yes,” replied Prince Alex
ander, “but they are not tall enough.”
This reply delivered with the tradi
tional Dutch phlegm, a little surprised
his interlocutor, who, however, merely
observed, Very well; then you must
see my cuirassiers.” The cuirassiers,
erect in their saddles like men-at-arms
of the Middle Ages, went by in breast
plates and plumes. “Well, what do
you think of them?” asked Prince
Fritz. “Splendid men, but not tall
enough.” Still more piqued than as
tonished at this unexpected response,
the heir to the crown of Germany ex
claimed, “Indeed I Then wait till you
see the regiments of the Guard.” In
due time these magnificent six-footers
made their appearance, and the same
query fell from the lips of the Crown
Prince.” They are not tall enough,’
very quietly returned Prince Alexan'
der—adding gently, but meaningly,
“We can flood our country, whan we
choose twelve feet deep.”

A Nao Thermo-Electric Battery.—M.
Clamond, a French electrician, has suc
ceeded in devising a thermo-electric
battery, producing a current sufficient
ly powerful to yield the electric light.
A factory in Paris is now, indeed,
lighted by this means The apparatus
consists of three parts; an inner one,
composed of pieces of iron, arranged
in the form of a crown, which can be
heated in the interior. This is called
the collector, its purpose being to col
lect the heat and then communicate it
to the adjacent thermo-piie proper.
This consists of a flexible chain, of any
desired length, composed of cubes of
antimony and zinc, soldered together
by sheets of tin. In the complete ap
paratus there are 6.000 of these “cou
ples,” outside which are fixed the plates
of copper to diffuse the heat
of the collector. A large surface is
thus exposed to the air, in order that as
great a diflerer.ee of temperature as
possible can be maintained between
the collector and the diffuser, for upon
this difference the strength of the cur
rent chiefly depends. M. Clamond has
been so successful that with one of his
batteries he lias been enabled to light
two of Serriu’s lamps, and with a
smaller but equally powerful battery
he can light tour less brilliant lamps.
This done with the consumption of nine
kilogrammes, or about twenty’ pounds
of coke an hour for the larger, and six
and one-halt pounds for the smaller,
thermo-electric batteiy. The appara
tus, moreover, gives warmth as well as
light, since its large'exterior surface
causes it to radiate a considerable
quantity of hear.

as Jean Paul Richter says—“Happiness is the
absence of pain,” what shall be said of a
remedy that will relieve instantly such pain as
those endure who suffer from piles and of how
much happiness must “Anakesis'' be the

piles gladly testify to its healing virtues. Doc

and medicine easy of application, safe and
useful iu all cases, it relieves pa n at once,
bolds up the tumors and ultimately cures the
worst cases of piles and what is eouahy worth

The rare concurrence of genius with do

with much comfort; Dryden, wedded,
like Addison, to a title and discord; Young ‘

The chief centre in Germany of the
manulaetureof the tobacco pipe brancli
industry is Ruhla iu Thuringia. In
that town and the neighboring villages
the annual production forthe past few
years has averaged 540,000 genuine
meerschaum bowls or heads, and 5,400,-
000 artificial or imitation meerschaum
bowls. The number of polished, lac
quered, and variously mounted wooden
pipe heads annually produced wa: 4,-
800,000. Of the common porcelain
bowls, theTavorite "pipes of the Ger
man peasantry, there were manufac
tured every year 9,COO,000, and ot fine
clay or lava bowls, 2,700,000. Further,
there h is be n an annual average produc
tion of 15,000,000 pipe stems or tubes
of various sizes and materials; 1,600,000
dozen of miscellaneous adjuncts, sucli
as flexible tubes, chains, tops, tufts,
etc.; 12,000 dozen of meerschaum pipe
cases, 8,000,000 dozen mouthpieces and
cigar holders of amber or horn and
meerschaum, wood or cocoanut shell,
and,finally, 15,000,000 complete pipes
composed of various materials. The
value of the whole is estimated at about
$5,000,000.

By an ingenious process, pig lead
may it seems, be produced from smoke.
In the process of smelting the ore, a
great deal of it, as is known, escapes in
the form of lead fumes—the new
process being devised with a view of
catching this smoke, and by passing it
through an almost endless line'of pipes
of sheet-iiou and woollen bags, con
densing it. The result is the successful
condensing of the smoke or lead fumes
into the metallic lead, the same as
steam is converted into water. The
product oi the fumes is a bluish, im
palpable powder, which makes a splen
did blue paint, pronoiuieed equal to
the corroded article. For the purpose
of making it white, furnaces are em
ployed, and the blue product, with the
ail of an intense heat, is again changed
into lead tumes—these being once more
condensed, and coming out pure white
lead. In the operation of thus trans
forming the blue lead into fumes, the
object had in view is to subiimize it all,
but the heat is not powerful enough
to do so.

At the Eastern railroad shops in
Portsmouth, X. H., a large tank is in
course of construction for subjecting
tiie railroad ties to tiie new process,
which, it is claimed, will make them
iveather-iiidestructibie. A large tank,
capable ot holding a car load of ties, is
to be tilled with creosote and the ties
passed through, the creosote drawing
out tiie sap ami pitch from the wood
and leaving the pores open. A pre
paration ot paraffine is then to be used,
which fills up the pores and it is stated
that these are thereby so filled as to
make the wood wholly impervious to
all atmospheric influences, neither ab
sorbing moisture and swelling, nor, on
the other hand, shrinking or splitting
because of the heat.
