widely with the galvanized arisOcracy OF our pavon-
ian glitter. Economy is condensed INTO financial
focus that these great family tables yield saving
of from 20 to Is per cent over the ordinary Aendges
dOmtsfquesn of this city. But the Societ6 Beaure-
gard has yet another boast In Its cooperative bank.
This institution is the receptacle OF the surplus funds
of the Society in common and loans money on credit
TO young aspirants in business, like the Classes
SvpdicqIesp of Paris and the Torschuss T1ene" of
Germany At this moment it has l2l7,000 francs on
deposit. As over 100000 francs annual income
pour into this bank to remain OF be withdrawn by
the members at option, large sums are left by them
10 captalize here since the bank has means of pro-
ducing better returns than members Individually
and il is thus that this bank is becoming
an immense institution. Appertaining also to
the Society are a large number Of houses

of all rivers in France is most lovely in its clear
waters and numerous craft that meander among the

but then there are only go members in the Society
1t has a very fine though small vineyard, full set
of houses and out-kouses and a wine-press. Among
others is the hospital erected for the children of the
members Prettier or more intelligent children l
never saw. They have their little intellectual
and gymnastic exercises and soon be-
come robust, gamboling IN the mountain air.
The vineyard with its delicious clusters of grapes
the principal attraction to me, although the fine
crops of grain an' legumes, potatoes melons, &c,

This farm is employed by the actiOndires as resort
from the heat and dust of Summer. They come reg
ularly during the evenings and Sundays to converse
and enjoy their billiards. i ready, after week
of almost constant intercourse and conversation
with this most thrifty Society, to believe it one of

An Illinois Genius.

Colonel Morton s. McAfcc, of Chester, H.
linois, has lately received II patent for self
operating water elevator This invention is
con.rived 50 as to make use Of heat that is
created for other purposes-whethcr natural
or artificial-for raising water for household,
ornamental, or other purposes, The cleva-
tor for household use is shout the size Of q
quart cup, and will raise At least 30 gal!ars
per hour from we'll or cstern, and by tho
use of the necessary pipinsNSYill lead the
water to any pdrt Of the house. :
The patcntce of this invention Is also Oh
inventor Of selt.sighting catnon, adopted
and approved by the War Department; and
also of curious instrumy1Sby which dis
tsnces can be measured Ny simple ocular
observation--that is, q prbdcient can tell by
the use Of the apparatus the distance OF an
object by merely looking at the object. Tho
latter is also the property of the War De-
paftmcnt, but, being invented near the close
of the war, was never made use Of as on aid
to military operations.

"What is tho simplest form for the ex-
traction of gold and silver by chlorine ?"
Ans~er.-Stamp your quartz rs finely as
possible, for which purpose it may, in some
cases, be well to heat and throw cold water
on it. ! his makes il more fragile Moisten
this fine powder with warm water. and place
it in thin layers on the bottom Of carthen or
lcaden vessels, in which chlorine gas is con-
Quoted. The gas may, by means of tubes.
be led from one vessel to another. SO that gas
not absorbed by the first, is led into the Sec
ond, third, and SO on. An improvement in
this process is to have perforated sieves, on
which the ore lies, and to have the chlorine
gas pass upward through them, like common
gas passes IN the gas works through the
lime purifier. The moist mass is then treated
with water, which dissolvcs the chlorine of
gold, which then may be precipitated by 4
solution of chlorine of antimony, or any
other of the well known mcans.
If silver is present in the ore, it will re.
main as chlorine in the powdered quartz,
because this is insoluble in water. It may
be dissolved, however, by a hot solution OF
common salt, or better, hyposulphite of soda
In this way the quartz powder is entirely
freed from the metallic ingredients The
silver solution may then be treated in the
usual way to precipitate the silver.-Eagfa.
