The tides purify and wash III,
shores, cleaning and sweeping our
ports; the currents, which result
therclrom, discncumbcr our road
steals of the masses of mud which
load them, clear the mouth drivers,
and produce pure and wholesome
freshness. Ats fixed hour the for
midablc masses Of water, raised by
an invisible power, rise and approach
the shore. They rise, they PrcciPl-
tate themselves with restless power,
but only to stop gently at a precise
moment, without ever passing the
boundry whirh Nature has traced.
1t is surely an honor to the human
race to have succeeded in calcula-
ting the very hour, nay, the exact
minute in which the oscillations OF
the SEA begin and end in every part
Of our Globe. Nevertheless, as yet,
unknown combinations will, at
times, produce terrible disasters that
cannot be avoided by any foresight
or ~prcNution. Thus, occaslonally a
powerful wind happens TO blow in
the same direction with the tide,
and gives it Incredible force and
fury. No lofty embankmCnt rear
cd by the hand Of man, no rocky
rampant raised by Mature herself,
can then withstand lis power; and
towns are swept in an instant, and
thousands Of persons lose their lives.
in some parts Of the Globe the tide
produces remarkable effects from
the peculiar formation of the coast
which it strikes. The most striking
is that of the Island of Mauritus
where . long rocky promontory runs
far out into the sea, and has beer
worn by the waves into numerous
caves and grottocs OF marvcllou'
beauty and grotcsqucncss. The wa
tcrs have forced for themselves al
outlet through the roof of one o
these caves, and when the tida
wave reaches the coast it fills the
cave, and then, with indescrihabl,
grandeur, flies through the opcniu!
to the height Of sixty feet, accomPa
MED by Il laundering roar which i
heard for miles out at sea.-Londo,
Erumilcr.

StereOtyping.

II is claimed that the system Of
stereotying pUreued at the London
Times establishment is the most
: icutiically perfect of any in the
void. 1t is certainly ingenious, as
the following href summary of the
principal processes will show;
The pages are set mp with tyres
III the ordinary manner, aud from
these II paper matrIX is obtained by
pressure. The paper intended to
receive tho indentation or intaGlio Of
these forms is thus prepared: Be
ginning with a sheet of very thin
and fine but strong paper tissue, n
sheet Of brown paper and two or
mcro sheets of blotting paper are
successfully pasted, one over the
other, upon one side Of the tissue,
The opposite or face side of the tis.
sue is busted with powdered French
chalk. The form OF type is first
warmed in II steam oven, and then,
when taken ont and LAID fiat, the
plas lie web, prepared for impression,
up6rT}; lmd the whole passed be:
meath n weighted roller.
The impression is az perfect as if
made in the finest wax. The paper
comes from the types without tho
least wrinkle, and without cutting or
toarinG at the edges Of any n of the
thousands of impressions with which
it IL .vered. Tho sheet, too, Is
nearly dried, and is ready for the
moulding frame. AS it is not 20
stiff but that it may be readily bent,
The paper is now made to assume
tho IL vo corresponding TO the cyl
indcrs Of the presses.
The paper-mould is held between
an iron back and a block of h%re-clay,
curved upon its face, and in this po-
sition tho type may be poured, and a
stereotype plate produced in a fow
seconds and perfect, with the eEccp-
ton Of trimming the edges and plan
ing the back-operations which are
accomplished in few minutes mo,e.
The mould is not burnt By the con-
tact of the melted type metal, which
fufes at n comparatively low temper
allure. A slight discoloration and
the lonst smell of burning are The ex-
tent Of injury to the mould.

The Art Of Spending

Every industrious, widO-awOke
person can find ways and means of
earning money, but after it is fairly
earned the great trouble with every
body is that it slips away 50 easily,
Every time you turn you will find
ways and means of spending money.
Now the great art in spending well,
is to make every dollar show where
it is invested. There are so many
ways of disposing of it which neyOr
seem to give amy return.
Your housekcepers need to learn
the art Of spending well. A dollar
invested in a nice covered dish for
the table, a useful mat for the hall,
a beautiful tree for the front door
yard, will give a hundred fold TIC
pleasure that it would in strip Of
trimming about the hem of n dress
or q fat chicken for the table, which
leaves you no better satisfied than il
you had dined off an inexpensive
chop. Think well over every dime
you pay out, and resolve to put ii to
the best possible account. The art
of spending is even n more import
ant one than the art Of earning it,
You can gain it by the spadOful and
ritter it all away by the spoonful.

Died suddenly of IIenrt Disease.

How common is the announcement.
Thousands are suddenly swept into
eternity by this fatal malady. This
disease generally has lis origin IN inn
pure blood filed with irritating, poison
ons materials, which, circulating
through the heart, irritates its delicate
tissues. Though the irritation may ut
first be only slight, producing a little
palpitation or irregular action, yet 10y
and by the disease becomes firmly scat
ed. and inflammation, or hypertroPhy,
or thickness OF tho lining membrane or
of the valves, is produced. How wise
to give early attention to Il case OF this
kind. Unnatural throbbing or pain IN
the region Of the heart should admouish
one that all il not right, and If You
would preserve it from further disease,
You must help it to beat rightly by the
uso of such Il remedy rs shall remove
the cause of the trouble. Use DIR.

and wonderful regulating properties,

AnnlE Tree RnrnrS.

A correspondent Of the Rural Nep
YORKER says that he has prevented
the attack of applc-trce borcrs by
putting a bushcl Of tan bark around
the stem Of each tree. The tan-bark
answers the double purpose of keep
ing out the borcrs and Il mulch. No
weeds grow through it, and the wri-
ter states that he has never known
a tree to be attacked, around which
a heap of tan-bark was constantly
kept. Quince-trccs, treated in the
same way, thrive admirably, and
are free from borcr5. Before put
ting the tan around, throw a quart
OF unlcachcd ashes and salt, half and
half, around the tree.

The Giant Trees of California; Novel
HOiAl

OF all the hotels in the world the
oldest is u lonely one in California,
on the road between San Jose and
Santa Cruz. Imagine immense trees
standing 4 few feet apart and hollow
inside; these are the hotol-ncat,
breezy, and romantic. The largest
tree is sixty-fvo feet around, and
contains a sitting-room and that bu-
rcau of Bacchus, whcrefrom is dis
pcuscd the thing that bitch and
stingcth. All abont this tree is a
garden of flowers and c%Vcrgrcons.
Tho drawing-room is Il bower made
of redwood, evcrgrccns and madrona
branches. For bed chambers there
are nine great hollow trees, white
washed or papcrcd, and having
doors cut to fit the shape Of the
holes. Literature finds n place in a
leaning stump, dubbed the library.
If it were not for that same haunt
of Bacchus, it is certain that the
guests OF this forest establishment
would feel like nothing 50 much az
dryads.
