How TO DO UP SHIRT BosoMs.-We Of.
ten hear the ladies expressing 10 desire to
know by what process the gloss on new
linens, shirt bosoms, DC, is produced,
and in order to CRAFTY them We subjoin
the following recipe:>~,:Take two ounces
Of fine white gum arabic, powder 1t in
pitcher, and pour on pint or more Of
water according to the degree Of strength
you desire, and then, having covered It,
let it set all night. In the morning pour
It carefully from the dregs intb a clean
bottle, cork it, and keep. for use. A ta-
BILE spoonful Of gum water stirred into a
pint Of starch made in the usual way will
give to lawns, either white or printed, a
look Of newness when nothing else can
restore them after washing" -.

The Earth We lihabit.

II may surprise some readers ID learn
that MI the earths-clay, flint. chalk, de-,
are nothing more than the rust of metals
that Mt one time, during the age Of this
world, they were all shining, brilliant
metals, Geologists speak Of the earth az
being hundreds of thousands years old
All their philosophy is based upon me-
chanical science: the formation of strata
the upheaying Of mountains, the burying
forests, have been attributed to some great
convulsion-that is, to some shaking to.
gether Of the earth's crust. Whether
this great age Of the world be true or not,
it Is very certain that before any Of these
events could have taken place, the forma-
ton Of each Of the earths must have been
the work Of ages; otherwise the metals, Of
which their base consists, could not have
been so completely rusted as to assume on
earthly texture. To understand this, we
must leave the mechanical, that Is, tho
geological theory. Itcannot be disputed
that the first changes Of the carth's sur
face were Of purely a chemical nature
Combinations took place then as nowS the
metallic bases, by mere contact with the
atmosphere or water, passed into oxyds
as the chemist calls them, or earths, as
expressed. in daily conversation. Chem
lists thus recognize something like forty
different kinds Of these oxyds or earthly
bodies, some being very scarce, and 9TH
ers az plentiful. By the merest touch Of
air, some Of the metallic bases of these
earths Instantly pass into the rusty or
earthly state; some, by contact with water
are 50 energetic that they burst into flame.
BY this process Of reasoning, We come
to the conclusion that the world is one
mass or globe Of mixed metals, of which
the mere crust has become rusted, or Of
earthly form the outer rind, rs if it were,
preventing any rapid combination taking
place with the metallic surface, FIVE or six
miles below the face Of the dry land
