Cure for SOmnambuliSm.

The Vallejo (Cal.) Recorder has the
following A certain husband living
in our neighborhood has habit of
walking in his sleep, and his wife got
so tired of having him frisk around the
house during the silent watches Of the
night that at last she determined to tie
him fast after he got to sleep. She fast
ened string to his ankle and tied the
other end to what happened to be the
most handy, which was her husbands S
double barreled gun, behind the door
in the corner of the room. About one
o'clock the somnambulist arose for the
purpose of taking ramble around the
room. When he had taken about six
steps, the artillery came out of its seclu-
sion in the corner, with jerk, the load
crashing through the panels of the
door. 1t soon brought both parties to
consciousness, and they begged for
Gods sake we would not mention their
names. Yesterday hewa busy putting
a new panel in the door, which is far
better than digging load of buckshot

Different Kinds of Engraving.

cline " engraving is of the highest
order, Great engravings are done IN
line simply straight lines. Next
comes Zine" and "stipple." "Stipple'
means dots-small dots like this
......-...... These small dots are used
to tighten up the high parts of the face
or drapery. 1t is very hard to engrave
a face in lines simply, and only master
engravers have ever undertaken it. The
masters understand and practice both
line and "stlpple." In 100 Claude
Mellan engraved a full head of Christ
with one unbrokenl;ne. The line com
menced at the apex of the picture.
Mezzotint engravings are produced
thus: The steel or copper is made
rough like fine sand-paper. TO produce
soft effects this rough surface Is
scraped off. If you want white place
or "high light" in your engraving,
scrape the surface smooth, then the ink
will not touch it. If you want faint
color, scrape off little. Such engrav-
ings look like Autographs. Etching is
adapted to homely and familiar
sketches. Almost all the great painters
were etchers. Etching is done thus:
The copper or steel plate is beaten and
covered with black varnish. The en-
graver scratches off this varnish with
sharp needles, working on the surface
as he would on paper with pencil.
Nitric acid is then poured over the
plate, and it eats away at the steel and
copper Whenever the needle has
scraped off the varnish. When the
varnish is removed with spirits of tur-
pentine, the engraving is seen in sunken
lines on the plate,

A Handsome Commitment.

The New y York Trib,on, in summing
up the events of last year, pays Chicago
the following handsome compliment
The most marvellous city on earth,
in youth, in growth, in dash, and ener-
gctic enterprise,-met, in one terrible
day, the most marvellous fate. Itsecmed
the destiny of this wonderful product
of the prairics and the inland seas, to
mark its history with incidents which
should always compel men to speak of
it in superlatves. 1t had the most bril-
liant past, the most hopeful future. 1t
was destroyed by the greatest fire ever
known to civilization. Its burning cx-
cited the nation and the world to the
most lavish and generous charity ever
seen. But of all the scenes it has ever
offered to the wonder and appreciation
of men, the finest has been the constant
heart, the undaunted, unblenching
courage, the sturdy and resolute energy
of its stricken but not broken people.
Brave Chicago! May the sun of the
New Year shine brightly on its renas-
cent glories, and may the memory of
its disasters be lost in the fame Of its
achievements. -

drawn out but it will answer, without
removing them from the barrels, to
store them in an out-building or shed,
covering deeply with straw. So protec-
ted, they may be kept frozen all winter
if desired and will, when they come to
thaw out, be fresh and sound. We have
even known apples headed up in barrels
and kept deeply covered in straw, but
not so deep but they were several times
frozen and thawed during winter, and
yet the following spring they were
sound, and in guilty equal to the same
variety kept in a cellar.
Frozen apples, however, must always
be handed with great care, for when
hard frozen they are unyieldng, and if
ratified together they will be covered
with shallow bruises. which. on being
thawed, first turn brown, and soon after
ward decay.

An Alexis AnectlOtc.

very pleasant incident in connec-
ton with the visit of the Grand Duke
of Russia to the Massachusetts Histori-
cal Society rooms is reported by the
Boston IraVeller. Just as the party
were leaving, Admiral Poisset took
from his pocket small envelope and
handed it to Mr.. Winthrop, saying that
perhaps the contents would be of sufii-
cient interest to entitle them to a place
in the fociety's cabinet. On opening
the envelope, three oak leaves and a
little twig were found. There were ac-
companied by statement in Russian
that the leaves and twig were taken
from an oak tree in st. Petersburg,
which grew from an acorn planted by
the Emperor of Russia himself, received
from Mr.. George Sumner, of this city,
which he took from tree which shades
