THE ranks of life's battle are open to all, the lowly as well as the great and though in the conflict full many must fall, you may reach to an honored estate. Press up to the front with aresolute mind, and struggle with all of your might, or soon to your shame and confu sion you’ll find you are but the tall of the k I t ■‘in Thl. in Y.ur memory. From the St. Lon is Ulolie-Domocmt. The best way to stop the pain from a burn or scald when the skin has been taken off is to break an egg over the wound- The suffering arises largely from the exposure to the air, and the white of the egg forms an artificial skin or covering, which, for a time, effectually prevents contact with the air, and so lessens the irritation of the nerves. Bow the Bu*tne** of Produulng Tiling* to Eat Huh Grown In a Few Year* The influence of the provision trade on the development of the oountries of production does not con cern us directly, but in considering the subject as a whole some allusion nustbe made to it. The prepara tion of food for exportation has been a source of prosperity' wherever it has been able to establish itself, but among the many regions that have made money by it the United States have profited the most. Tl*y wore first to begin, on a large scale at least, and they have gone on until they may be said to bo growing everything. Though the larger part of their products is ulrendy required for home use, their shipments else where liavo become a business of great gain to them, nnd have aided' largely in the opening of new terri tories. but lot it bo remembered that, unlike us, they live exclusively on what they raise, and only send away their surplus. Tho canning trade of the west has been can-led to its actual success, not by exportation, but by home con sumption. Of the 1,100,000 tins of fruit prepared in Califomia in 1800 only 147,000 are shown to have been shipped abroad from Californian ports. All the rest “went east,” and though we must allow largely for exportations from Chicago, which has become n great distributing cen ter, it ts beyond doubt that the greater portion of tlie rest was used for native w#nts. In tho matter of fruit the yield can hardly keep up with the home demand, although its increase is so rapid that the quanti ties of many sorts of both tinned and dried fruits are doubling from year to year. And so it is in many Dther tiudeH. The pock of tinned salmon on the Pacific coast affords almost the Bole example of overpro duction. It reaches to about 1,(100,- 000 eases, of which British Columbia furnishes 400,000 and the United States 1,200,(Kill. Tho market cannot absorb ull this, and the make will have to bo cut down. Tlie provision trade of Chicago now attains ail annual income of 128,000,000, although if.out conning lias spread away from its great homo to many new points out went, ami is prospering especially at Cedar Rapids, Sioux City anil Kf.nrrm City. Beet sugar making is alt J on the in- ereaBO. -Jn Canada, too, there has been’much progi'c’ss, especially since the opening of the Canadian Pacific railway; but in comparison with what is happening in the Strifes. Cauadu seems fust asleep. Australia is only beginning; but she is trying her baud at many prod ucts, and there is good ground to hope that, aH tho years pass on, sue may become tho greatest of our pur veyors. If she could euro the earthly taste of her wines, they might ho largely sold among us. India is aug menting her, shipments to us, nnd there—as almost everywhere indeed —food of various sorts is assuming an important position among ex ports. In Europe itself tho pro duction of many of tlio more deli cate articles is steadily gaining' strength; Malta and Teheriffe are supplying us with increasing quan tities of potatoes, and even in such an out of the way little country as Bosnia an important commercohos grown up in dried plums, from 1B,- 000 to 40,000 tons being sent away each year, according to the crop. All the world is gaining in pro portion as we gain ourselves.—Black wood’s Magazine. Where the Idea of Canning Came From* Few people are aware that we are Indebted to the people of old Pom peii, who were all smothered in the First century of the Christian era, for one of the most important indus tries of our time—the canning busi- Years ago, when the first ex cavations were made in that buried city, an American came upon sev eral jars of figs. When they were opened the contents were found to be as fresh and palatable as when they were put up eighteen centuries before. Investigations instituted on the spot proved that the fruit had been put into jars in a highly heated state, and that an aperture for the escape of steam had been left in the lid, which, when it had served its purpose, was sealed over with wax, Yankee ingenuity caught the idea at once, and the next year canning factories were erpeted all over the United States.— Chicago Herald.

From common experience we are apt to hold exaggerated notions of the power of gravity. Not until we compare it with other attractive forces, such as magnetism or elec tricity, do we appreciate how trivial it really is. Tho fundamental experiments in electricity and magnetism, known to men for more than 2,000 years, of lifting light bodies by rubbed amber and iron filings by means of a load stone. demonstrate at once their in comparably greater power. If, for instance, the attracting body had tho moderate dimensions of a hand specimen of amber or load stone, we should require it to be of so douse a material as to weigh 1,01)0,000,01)0 pounds instead of u few pounds,; us usual, in order that its gravitational attraction should equal that of either of the two forces men tioned. It is obvious therefore that the imposing nature of tho force of gravity, as equally compared with other attractive forces, is due not to its superior qualitative magnitude, but to the enormous masses of the bodies which exercUe it. Thus, While it requires tho use of the most delicate torsion balance to demonstrate oven the mutual attrac tion between a small and a large sphere of lead, yet where enormous musses, such as the earth, are con cerned, the attraction exerted by one hemisphere upon the other probably exceeds n force of BOO pounds per square inch over a surface whose radius is 4,000 miles.—Eleotricity. ClinrnoterlHtlc Costume* DUnppearlng. Possibly B0 per cent, of tlie inter' national costumes copied by Queen Victoria when she dressed dolls have passed away, never to return. In some of tho Swiss cantons the traditional Helvetian garb yet sur vives; in others it is fast declining to extinction. Picturesquely clad men, women and children who pre tend to ho artists' models, hut who are in reality heggers, still haunt the Via : C'ondotti nt Romo and ex tract coppers from the “forestieri,” Tlie police have driven them from the Piazza di Spagnia and the stops of thei'Trlnlth do Monti; but ero long in all likelihood they will wholly I vanish: A few vestiges of romantic dress linger in the Italian provinces; but on the whole the peuinsula is at present inhabited by a population, the males of . which wear J tore” clothes and wide awake iiWtt), while the -women aro clad in Mancli ester cottons and cheap hats copied from the latest Paris modes. Chr.rr.eterfstfe costumes are on tho wune in Germany, in Norway and in Spain.

Tho mugnetic effects produced,by lightning are offen very curious. A chest containing a largo assortment of knives, forks and other-cutlery was, not many years ago, struck in the house of a Wakefield tradesman, and magnetism imparted to the whole of the articles. Arago, in his “Meteorological EssnyB,” speaks of a shoemaker in Swabia whose tools were thus treated, to his indescrib able annoyance. 1 ‘He had to he con stantly freeing his hammer, pinchers and knives from his nails, needles and awls, which were constantly get ting caught by them as they lay to gether on the bench.” The same authority knew of a Genoese ship which was wrecked near Algiers in consequence of some pranks played by lightning among Hie compasses, the captain innocently supposing that he was sailing toward the north when as a matter of fact he was steering due south.—Chambers’ Jour nal. Habit* of Public Singer*. Do you, know how many famous lady singers have contrived and still contrive to strengthen their voices? Mme. Sontag, by eating sardines; Mme. Despierre, by drinking hot water; Mme. Cruvelli, claret; Mme. Patti, seltzer water; Mme. Nilsson, beer; Mme. Cabol, by eating pears; Mme. Trebelli, strawberries; Mme. Borghi-Mamo, by taking snuff; Mme. -Dorus-Gras, by eating cold meat. Several singers of the male sex also have indulged in similar freaks. Sabatt. the Swedish tenor, used to cat pickled cucumber; Berk, the bar itone, hardly ever spoke for fear of spoiling his voice; Kinderman was in the habit of sucking prunes.— Gazzetta Piemontese. ED.
