Science and Art.

Zinc nails are now extensively employed in
the manufacture Of boots and shoes in place of
wood or iron. They are also substituted for
sewing in ladies' slippers. An iron last is en-
ployed, and the nails, on being driven in, strike
the last and become headed or rIveted on the
inside, thus forming very secure fastening
The French are still enthusiastic as to the val
ne of the new metal, aluminium. Thimbles
bracelets, eyeglasses, and variety Of small
articles are made from it. The king of Den
mark has had helmet made of it, which is
as light as cloth cap, while sabre cannot cut
through it. The French are now making an
aluminium cannon, which will be as light as
one of pine wood, and as powerful and lasting
as bronze.-so they think. The small
planet recently found by Dr. Lescarbault Of
France, between Mercury and the sun, is proved
to have been seen and described by Mr.. Loft,
an Englishman, in 1918. The discovery of SO
many new planets is held by some to be cvi-
dencc in support of the theory that these bodies
are thrown off by the sun. A smoke
consuming locomotive, on new principle, in
vented by the superintendent of the railroad
workshop at Altoona, Pa, has been tried on the
Pennsylvania railroad 1t ran III miles ON
25 bushels of coal, and scarcely particle of
smoke escaped. The comfort of railroad tray
cling will be much promoted by the use of such
locomotives. Hypnotsm, the anesthc-

when you may stick pin in her and she will
not move. The route for a railroad

of competent engineers. and found to be prac

Harriet Hosmer.

In Mrs Ellet's " Woman Artists in all Ages
and Countries" recently published will be
found the following anecdote of Harriet Hos
mer, the gifted artist. We have before heard
the story of this practical joke, which derives
its zest only from the circumstances under which
it was practiced
"A practical joke upon physician of Bos-
ton had been the immediate cause of her being
sent to Lonox. Her health having given her
father some uneasiness, the gentleman in ques-
ton, physician in large practice, was called
in to attend her. The rather uncertain visits
of this physician proved source of great an
noyanco and some real inconvenience to his pa
tient, inasmuch as they interfered with her
rides and drives, shooting and boating excur-
sions. Having borne with the inconvenience
some time, she requested the gentleman, as
great favor, to name an hour for his call that
she might make her arrangements accordingly.
The physician agreed, but punctuality is not
always at the command of professional men.
Matters were as bad as ever. Sometimes the
twelve o'clock appointment did not come off till
three in the afternoon. One day, in particular
Dr. was some hours after the time A
playful quarrel took place between the phys-
clan and the patient; and as he rose to take
his leave, and offered another appointment, Miss
Hosmer insisted upon his giving his word to
keep it.
If am alive, said he, Il will DO here
naming some time on certain day.
Then if you are not here, was the reply, L
am to conclude that you are dead
Thus they parted. The day and hour arrived,
but no doctor made his appearance. Thateven
ing Miss Hosmer rode into Boston, and next
morning the papers announced the decease of
Dr.. Half of Boston and its neighbour
hood rushed to the physicians house to leave
cards and messages of coincidence for the family,
and to inquire into the cause of the sudden and
lamentable event.

a French Witness in Vermont Court.

At trial in Vermont court, several years
ago French lady had been subp0ned as wit
ness, and was called upon to give her testimony.
She was stranger in the place, and " the
court felt itself bound to address her in her
native tongue. But the courts education in
the parlez vous line had been sadly neglected,
and how to administer the oath, in an intelligent
form to the silent lady before him was tor some
moments puzzlng question. What was to be
done? The judge called upon several of the
lawyers near him, but they all avowed their ig-
noranco of the language then 80 supposedly
necessary Finally, the counsel for the defend
ant clever Yankee, feeling himself equal to
the occasion, volunteered to extrcate the court
from its embarrassment. He accordingly rosc
and addressed the lady witness In these terms
"Vous jarez Eat wat you hero testify shall
be truse, re whole truse,, and Messing but 20
truse, so help you mon Dieu
The lady looked for moment at the manu-
facturer of this hybrid sentence in silent aston
ishment. then turning to the court. said, in
perfectly good English, though with slight
foreign accent, "What does the gentleman
say?"
The effect was electrical. Such q laugh went
up to the roof of that country court room that
the counsel for defendant has not heard the last
of it till this day.

A WARN HUG.-Wendell Phillips, at a recent

" Everything was breaking, and at last the

found out that slavery had right everywhere.
She hated the Republican motto, Freedom ma
tional, slavery sectional. She had her motto
Slavery everywhere, and the counterpart was,

of the story told by the eastern traveller of a
bear in Northern Asia, who went into the wo-

ing kettle, and, smelling around with his nose,
he touched the hot iron. Indignant at the Of.
fence offered to his nervous system, the bear
clasped the kettle. The more he clasped it the
more it burned him, but the more it burned
him the more he yelled and the tighter he
Rugged it; and SO he died. Now, the more the
Democratic party clasped slavery, the more

more it ruined it, the moro it yelled and the
tighter it clasped it'll its embrace and it would

PERSrvERTNG Doc.-A boast being made of
the obedience of Newfoundland dog in fetch
ing and carrying, the master put marked shil-
ling under large square stone by the roadside,
and having ridden on three miles, ordered the
dog to go back and fetch it. The dog set off,
butdld not return the whole day. He had gone
to the place, and being unable to turn the stone,
sat bowling by it, Two horsemen came by and
saw his distress, and one of them alighting re-
moved the stone, and finding the shilling, put
it in his pocket, not supposing that the dog
could possibly be looking for that The dog
followed the horses for upwards oftwenty miles,
stayed in the room where they supped got into
the bedroom, got the breeches in which the ia
tai shilling had been put, made his escape with
them, and dragged them through mud and mire,
hedge and ditch, to his masters house.

Papering Rooms.

The Scientific American remarks that manv
ives have been lost from the laziness or ignorance
OF paper hangers, who have laid one paper above
another, instead of tearing off the old before
hanging the new. There was a very handsome
house near one of our best provincial towns
which could never keep its tenants At last it
stood empty and became worthless, because de-
teStable fever seized upon every family that lived
in it. A ready witted observer promised the
owner to find out the cause. He traced the mis-
chief to one room, and presently conjccturcd
what was the matter there. He let slip of
glass into the wall, and found it next day dlmm-
ed with f@tid, condensed vapor. lie tore down
strip of paper, and found abundant cause for
any amount of fever. For generations the walls
had been papered afrcsh, without the removal
of anything underneath. And there was the
putrid size and the fermenting old papers inches
deep A thorough clearance, scraping and
clearing, put an end to the fever, and restored
the value of the house.
