a ZINE STEEL ENGRAVING, n
BY F. II. STUART.


From Painting by Clarence IL DobeH.
This beautiful Engraving, suggestive OF LIES
Journey from Childhood to Old Agi, which has
been so long in the Engravers hands is now ready
fnr subscribers.
The Picture represents a Boat Crossing
Stream on the forward part, Childhood is repre-
scented by Boy aud Girl joyous and delighted
with the prospects ahead; while further along i'll
the boat is YoUth,-a young lady careessly play
ing with pond lilies; her admirer, young man,
sits by her side. Near the centre of the boat,
Manhood is represented by husband and wife. The
husband is standing, his hand resting upon the
shoulder Of his wife, while she looks up with
confding and cheerful smile, her child of perhaps
six SUMMERS. is sleeping in her lap In the after
part of the boat, Old Ageis shown by an old man
and woman who have Travelled Lilies Journey"
together, with all its "joys and sorrows,' 'hopes
aud fears:" the old gentleman leans forward upon
his cane deep in thought, while the old lady sits
with basket in her lap looking back, evidently
reviewing the past. Time is represented by
hardy oarsman, whose only care seems to be in
pulling the boats crew across the stream, his
daughter in her sun-bonuet, very contentedIy
peers over the bow of the boat. The whole grou-
ping and style of the picture shows master-work
of art and need only to be seen TO be admired.
The Engraving is neatly printed on plate pa
per, 20x26, and sold to subscribers at $500 per
copy. d. 3. RUSSELL & Co., -

VERY IMPORTANT TO BUSINESS MEN.
The New Orleans Picayune, which is
always finding out something new, says
some people never think of revenue
stamp when writing a letter; yet some
letters require stamping as much as a
note or deed. Under the internal reve-
nue. laws, letters acknowledging the re-
ceipt of either drafts, checks or money,
exceeding twenty dollars, are subject to
Il stamp duty of two cents, the same as
if formal receipt had been given for
SO much money. The fact is sometimes
forgotten, or is not known, even by
good business men. IF-

COLOR or THE CLoUDs.-The varied
colors. which the clouds assume at
various times, especially at sunrise and
sunset, are explained by Mr.. Sorley on
the principle that the clear transparent
yapor Of water absorbs more of the red
rays Of fight than of any other, while the
lower strata of the atmosphere offer more
resistance to the passage of the blue
rays. At sunrise and sunset the light of
the sun has to pass through about POO
miles of atmosphere within mile of the
surface of the earth, in order to illumi-
nate cloud a mile from the ground. In
passing through this great thickness the
blue rays are absorbed TO far greater
extent than tue red, and much of the
yellow is also removed. Hence clouds
thus Illuminated are red. When the sun
is higher above the horizon, the yellow
light passes more readily and the clouds
become orange, then yellow, and finally
white. Clouds in different parts of the
sky, or at different elevations, often
show these various colors at the same

When engineers would bridge a
stream, they often carry over at first
but a single cord. With that they
stretch wire across. Then strands are
added to strands until foundation is
laid for planks, and now the bold
engineer finds a safe footway, and
walks from side to side. SO God takes
from rs some golden-threaded pleasure,
and stretches it hence into Heaven.
Then He takes child, and then friend.
Then lie bridges death, and teaches the
