Stencilling on Textiles.
The stencil is really one of the simplest
methods of decoration, valuable bcoause
it can be applied to so many different
purposes and materials, and at the same
time is thoroughly artistic, and not at all
mechanical, why it as it appears. One reason
may be so unreservedly commend¬
ed to women is that it does not demand
previous training in drawing. Unfortu¬
nately for art education in this country,
drawing is not made as imperative as in
some stencil foreign countries. Now, in
the drawing is the most
mechanical part of the work after the de¬
sign is once prepared. There is scarcely
a fabric on which the stencil may not be
used. Wools should be excepted, as
they should be in all decorative work, on
account of moths. But from coarse sack¬
ing to bolting-cUth, that fairy-like web,
there is free range. Blue denim, which
will be recognized as the material of
which overalls are made, and of which
the color is highlyi*. prized in decorative
work, takes stencilling admirably. White
jed, and yellow are the colors
generally lines used, Disks and water
in the Japanese manner
are signs for simple portieres. and effective de¬
As wall coverings
or in uphosterv, all-over designs in Indian
spirals and whorls are very good. Such
designs ing. are excellent also on coarse sack¬
When large, seroll-like designs are
used, it adds much to the richness of the
decoration to cover the plain spaces with
broken bars, after the manner of darned
ground in embroidery. Greens and blues,
reds and blues, and different tints of the
same color, combine well in this way.
A New Stalaetite Cave.
A stalactite cave of enormous extent
has been discovered at Reclere, close to
the French frontier, and is attracting
considerable and interest whole among geologists the
others. The extent of
cave has not yet been ascertained; but an
idea can be torrued of its size from the
circumstance that a few days ago two ex-
ploring parties visited the cave, one en-
tering at 8 a. m. and the other at 11 a.
m., and each party roamed about, for sev-
eral hours, without coming across the
other. The cave is fairly dry, contain-
ing, so far as now ascertained, only a
small pond, and it can be entered with
perfect safety.
Amount of Gold in ths World.
An English writer says that “the quan-
tity of gold in the world supposed is not nearly be. so
large as it is commonly to it
If it could all be collected in one spot,
would form a pile only 25 feet high, 45
feet long, and 25 feet wide. The reason
for the smallness of the space which the
world's stock of gold would fill is to a
great extent accounted for by the density
of the metal. A cubic foot of it Weighs
more than twelve hundred pounds.” of gold In
view of the great discoveries
during the last liftv years, this appears to
be a remarkable statement; one that
should attract the attention and investi-
gation of the leading scientists.

A Funeral oi Ants.
The writer saw a large number of ants
surrounding some that ne had killed, aDd
determined to watch their proceedings.
Accordingly he followed four or five that
started off from the rest toward a hillock
a short distance off, in which w»s an ant’s
nest. This they entered, and in about
five minutes they reappeared, followed by
others. All fell into rank, walking regu¬
larly and slowly, two by two, until they
arrived at the spot where lay the dead
bodies of the soldier ants.
In a few minutes two of the ants ad¬
vanced and took up the body otEers. of one of
their comrades, then two and so
on, till all were ready to
march. First walked two ants,
bearing a. body, then two
others with another dead ant, and so on
until the whole line was extended to
about forty pairs, and the procession
moved slowly onward, followed by an
irregular body of about two hundred ants.
Occasionaly the two laden ants stopped,
and laying down the dead body, it was
taken up by the two walking unburdened
behind them, and thus, by occasionally
relieving each other, they arrived at a
sandy spot near the sea. The body of
ants now commenced digging with their
jaws a number of holes in the ground, in
each of which a dead ant was laid. Tnen
they all fell to and filled up the graves.
This did not quite fifiish the remarka¬
ble circumstance attending this insect
funeral. Six or seven of the ants had
attempted to run off without performing
their share of the digging; these were
brought back and killed on the spot. A
single grave was quickly dug, and they
were all dropped into it.
How to Make Beef a La Mode.
-
Six or eight pounds of the round of
beef, half a pound of fat salt pork, three
tablespoonfuls of butter, two onions, half
a carrot, half a turnip, two tablepsoon-
fuls of vinegar, one heaping tablespoon-
ful of salt, half a teaspoonful bit of pepper, of stick
two cloves, six allspice, a
cinnamon, a bouquet of sweet nerbs, or
a teaspoonful each of dried thyme and
sweet marjoram, four tablespoonfuls of
flour ar.d two quarts of boiling water,
Cut the pork in thick strips as long as the
beef i9 thick, and draw them through needle, it
at regular intervals with a larding
or the holes can be made with a steel or a
boning knife and the slips of pork pushed the
in. Chop the vegetables fine; melt
butter in a large saucepan and add them to
h, letting them cool for five minutes;
dredge the meat with the flour and brown
thoroughly on both sides, fake it out,
add one quart of the water and let it boil
a minute, stirring steadily. Then put
back the meat, add the other quart with
a *i the remaining seasoning; cover close-
ly, and simmer gently for four or even
^ ve tours. Then take up. Draw the
saucepan forward; skim off all the fat
from the gravy, and boil it rapidly reduce^ for ten
or fifteen, minutes in order to it.
For a pint of gravy allow one table-
spoonful of browned flour, though mail}
P refer unthickened. The juice of a
| eraon IS an improvement. Put whatever
is left between two plates, and press with
a heavy weight. It is even better cold
than hot. Save every particle of gravy,
as it can be used either in a final mince or
in soup.

Tablets from Ancient Babylon,
The collection consists of documents of
a commercial and legal as well as fiscal
character, varying from about B. C. 2300
down to about two centuries before the
Christian era. Many of these inscriptions
are of a curious envelope class—that is,
one copy of the deed was written and
inclosed' in a clay envelope, upon which
a second copy is written. One pair of
tablets, dating about B. G. 2200, reveal
to us the curious fact that there were in
Babylon at that time a class of men em¬
ployed as agents to obtain children to be
adopted by wealthy citizens who had no
family. These men received a regular
commission both from the parents and
from those who adopted the infant.
