Promptly Corrected, Two young feilows at Liverpool, partners in the tea trade, were the best of friends, and their intimacy ex tended to personal as well as to busi ness matters. One of them, a simple-minded fel low, was a bachelor, and was in the habit of reading to his partner ex tracts from letters of an ardent and affectionate nature from a lady in the north of England, who signed herself "Susie.” The married one went to China for twelve months and returned just :n time to attend- the wedding of his partner. “t hardly feel like a stranger,” he said in his sweetest tones, addressing the bride. "I fact I feel as though I ought to be well acquainted with my partner’s wife, since he has often done me the honor to read to me ex tracts from his dear Susie’s letters.” The faces of the husband and the speaker were studies as the bride drew herself up and said, emphatically and distinctly.

Natural Ice, they say. is never perfectly solid; it is bound to have a larger or smaller amount of air bubbles. Artificial ice has no bubbles, it is perfectly solid, except for what the iceman calls “the feather,” a fine, fluffy plume in the center of each block; this is not bub bles, bnt simply the formation one finds when ice freezes from the bot tom, the top and the sides, leaving the center the last portion to con goal. A recent test made between ar tificial and natural ice was shown in a large market, when two fifth boxes of exactly the same capacity, receiv ing exactly the same treatment, stand ing in the same temperature, were each filled with sixteen hundred pounds of ice. The artificial ice, so the store man says, lasted eleven weeks; the natural ice had melted at the end of four weeks.—Good Housekeeping. A Peer Clockniaker.
