ARMENIAN OR DIAMOND CEMENT This
article, so much esteemed for uniting p ;eces
of broken glass, for repairing precious
stones, and for cementing them TO watch
cases and other ornaments, Is made by
soaking isinglass in water until 1t becomes
quite soft, and then mixing 1t with spirit
in which little gum mastic and am
moniacum have been dissolved.
The jewellers of Turkey, who are mostly
Armenians, have a singular method OF
ornamenting watch cases, etc., with dia.
monds and other precious stones, by simply
glueing or cementing them on. The stone
is set in silver or gold, and the lower part
fthc metal made Nat, or to correspond
with the part to which 1t is to be fixed; il
is then warmed gently, and has the glu,
applied, which Is so. very strong that The
parts so cemented never separate; this
glue, which will strongly unite bits Of
glass, and even polished steel; and may
be applied to a variety of useful purposes
Is thus made in Turkey Dissolve five
or six bits of gum mastic, each the size
of large pea, in as much spirits of wine
as will suffice to render it llqiid; and In
another vessel, diss olive as much isinglass,
previously little softened in water,
Ohough none OF the water must be used, }
IN French brandy or good rum, as will
make two. ounce vial of very strong glue
adding two small bits of gum albanum
or ammoniGcum, which must be rubbed OF
ground till they are dissolved. Then mix
the whole with sufficient heat. KeeT
the glue in vial closely stopped, and
when 1t is to be used, set the vial in boiling
water. Some persons have sold a com.
position under the name of Armenian
cement, in England; bu! this composition
is badly II ade; 1t is much too thin. and
the quantity ofTactjc is much too small.
The following a.e good p.oportlons:-
1singless, so.ked ia wac aid dissolved
in spirit, Two ounces Oiick); dissolve in
this ten grains of very pale gum am noniac
Tin tears,) by rubbing them together;
then add six large tears of gum mastic,
dissolved in the least possible quantity OF
rectided spirits.
Isinglass, dissolved in proof spirit, al
above, three ounces; bottoms of mastiC
varnish Chick but clear one and a hal
ources; max well.
When carefully made, this cement resistG
moisture, ard dries cOlorless. As usually
met with, 1t Is no. only OF very bad quality
but sold at exorbitaut prices - TiHmQa'.

LORD PALMHRsroN, according 10 . state
ment that lie going the rounds Of the Jour-
mails, recently said, In reply to friend who
told him that he was the oldest Prime
Minister England ever had, that Cardinal
Henry was prime minister at ninety. We
presume that Lord Palmerston said Cardi-
nal Fletvy, who was chief French Minis
ter at the beginning of 1743, temp. Louis
XIV, dying then in his ninetieth year.
But VIC nave better opinion of Lord Pal
merston's historical requirement than to
suppose he would not have corrected any
one who should have told him he was the
Oldest prime minister England ever had,
for that country has had one prime minis
ter who was older even than Cardinal
Fleury. The Marquis of Winchester, who
was torn in 1475, in the reign of Ed.
ward ", became Lord High Treasurer in
1919, when Edward ". was king, Iaud
held that Office until the 10th of March,
1879, in the fourteenth of Elizabeth, he
being ninety-seven years old, or old enough
TO have been Lord Palmerston's father.
Lord Winchester lived In the reigne of eight
English monarchs, namely, Edward w.,
Edward "; Henry ILL.,, Henry WILL, Ed.
ward VI, Mary l., and Elizabeth, and
under all the sovereigns Of the Tudor line,
though Elizabeth survived him thirty-one
years. Lord Palm erston has lived in the
reiNns of George Ill, George ". :, William
~ and Victoria; but he has been in Office
longer than Lord Winchester, so far as
the latter's history is known, as the mar.
quis did not become an historical charac-
ter until he was fifty: eight, and his first
high post he received when he was sixty
three. Lord Paine. ston has been in OF.
flee fifty years, aud in Parliament fifty
nine years. But he has never been in
Office so high as that held by the Marquis
of Winchester who was Lord High Tressu-
rer, an Office which has not been known in
England for more than a century and half.
The last person who held it was the ia
nous Charles Talbot, Duke Of Shrewsbury,
who received the white staff from the
hands OF Queen Annie when on her death
bed-the closing act of the Stuart dynasty,
which terminated in Annie, being the ap.
pointment OF an enemy of that dynasty to
the highest political post in the realm
The first Hanoverian king put the treas u.
ry in commission, and in that state 1t has
ever since remained. at that time thu
first Lord Commissioner of the Treasury
did not rank SO high as secretary Of
state; and 1t was not until some years
after the accession of George l. that The
first lord came to be considered premier
Lord Palmerston is the Oldest prime min.
lister that Great Britain ever has had
Great Britain dating from 1908, when james
VI. OF Scotland became King of England
and, by consequence, the first admitted
british monarch.

MAJOR GBN. SIR GEORGE Brown Of
the soldiers whose name the Crimean war
made familiar to us Is dead. The steamer
which Is telegraphed this morning from
Father FONT, announces without particu-
lars that Sir George Brown Is dead. He
was born in lI9O, educated at the ROYAL
Military College, entered the army as en-
sign IN the 43l Foot In 1906, saw the can
ture OF Copenhagen in the following wear,
served In the Peninsula from 1908 to 1911,
and then was made captain. Subsequent
ly he participated in many celebrated ac-
tions ofthat war, the passage of the Duro and
the capture oil Oporto, and was severely
wounded at Talavera. Aflerward his name
was associated with the Light Division at
Almeida, Sabugal, and BayOnne, and he
received medal at Talavera, Cusaco, and
other actions in which his gallantry was
conspicuous. He took part In the storm
Ing OF BadOjoz and Castrillias, and in many
al other hot fight of those tremendous
campaigns. He was promoted to lieu.
tenant colonel, came to this country In
lSl3under Gen Ross, and was present at
the Bladenburg races and the capture of
Washington. For forty years after be
saw no lighting, but was made in 1912,
Deputy, aud in 1851 full adjutant general
oi the British forces, and afterward lieut.
tenant general. AS such he took command
OF the famous Light Division in tho Crimean
war, winning somewhat doubtful glory
at the battle OF the Alma. Klnylake saws
Of him; "Sir George Brownwas an officer
whose career had begun, and begun with
glory, Ia the great days under Wellington;
put whiie he was still In early manhood,
war had ceased, and lhenceforth for near
ly forty years he had brought his strong
energies to bear upon the kind ofmilitarv
business which used to be practced bv he
English In peace time" Hence he proved
in the hour of battle more the martinez
than the general, though for brilliant per
sOnal courage he was distinguished at the
Alma, and again at InkermAn, where he
was severely wounded. Returning TO Eng
land he was made g. q. b. in 1855, and
since 1860 has been In command of the
forces in Ireland.

following advantages Of his improved system:
list. The teeth Of his manufacture will never
corrode nor change color by any acids, and are
three fourths lighter than any other.
"a. No teeth or roots need be extracted, as tho
artificial ones can be inserted over them.
Sd. The roots will be made inOnensiye and
never to ache.
4th. No temporary teeth are needed, as per-
manent ones can be made Immediately, thereby
preserving the natural expression Of the face,
which, under the old system, is frequently dis
figured.
9th. This work has been fully tested for over
Ave years by many Of the first chemists and
hysicians OF this and the old country.
DR.. s. has also invented white indestruch-
BILE metal filling, with which the most sensitive
teeth can be filled without pain, and can build
up perfect sound tooth on any side roots, which
will last through lifetime.
