Halcyon Days.

The Haleyon Days CONNIE need on
Saturday, the I4th day of De sember,
with the serene sky and the soft atmos-
phere that often throw their mystic
charm around the season, extern ling
for the week preceding and the week
following the winter soIstiee. 1t is then
the tabled birds sits brooding over their
nests, Graded on the winter seas. Old
Eolus keeps the winds tightly shut up
in his rocky cavern, and old Sol
breathes hissweetest influences that no
harro shall come to the fabled birds
that are being warmed into life.
1t was lovely throught Of the an
Gent Greeks to surround the most
dreary season Of the year with this ere
alton Of their fancy. Thus does one of
their choicest mythes show the Greek
homage for the devotion of woman's
love, and also clothes with a charming
story the celestial peace and the un-
rufied serenity which often linger
around the time when the SUMS pres
ence is the shortest, and his rays fall
most eoldly upon the earth.
We never weary of the pretty fable,
and once year is not too often to recall
the memory. Ceyx, the son of Hes
perus, the Morning Star; marries Hal
cyone, the daughter of EoIus, god OF
the winds. Their love flows smoothly
as serene day in summer, until Ceyx
is summoned TO Iona on account of his
brothers death. Haleyone parts from
her husband with uncoDsoIable sorrow
and with a presentimentof coming ILL
Her forebodings are only too true. s
fierce storm overwhelms the ship and
! Ceyx sinks beneath the waves.
Meanwhile Halcyone watches anx.
iously for his return, makes ready fol
his arrival, dresses herself in gay ap-
psrel, offers frequent incense to the
gods, and more than all to Juno. She
prays constantly for his return, and
| that lfe may remain true to bis love fol
her. AT last, the goddess, moved by
her distress, sends vision wherein the
death of her husband Is revealed to the
sorrowing wife. In the morning she
goes to the sea-skofe that she may look
upon the spot where she last saw him,
and borne by the waves, the inanimate
body Of Ceyx approaches the shore
She throws herself into the sea, and a;
she falls The plying gods change them
both into birds.
To this exquisite Greek allegory we
are indebted for our beautiful English
word 'halcyon," which is synonym
for every placid peaceful and serene in.

looking at the Bright side.

Doctor Johnson used to say that the
habit of looking at the best side OF
things was worth more than a thOus-
and pounds year. And not only IS
this radiant good-nature riches, but it
is the most active charity. All other
riches must be boarded, more or less.
Our horses, our houses, our pictures,
cur jewels, our books, in the most gen
erous hands can gladden. but a few
friends. But our heartsOme good-na-
ture brightens every human soul it
meets, and is reflected from each to
some other. There is no end to its in
fuence any more than sunshine. And
as it is lavished it grows sweeier and
fuller. 1t is the beautiful secret of
which all the old stories are allegories.
1t is the clew that opened the hard lab
yrinth of life, the spell that tanned saw
age beasts, the mysterious fountain
that conferred perennial beauty, the
sweet smelling apple that contained
the spirit of health, the magic glass
wherein all things looked fair, the bios
som, eating of which all care vanished.
The best of it is that this blossom will
grow in the barren soil of the grumpi-
est spirit, and multiply exceedingly If
it be nourished little at the start. But
those who wear it ever are crowned
Herewith, and. above all the sons of
men, they are the children OF light

A judicious silence is always better
than truth spoken without charity.
The most powerful remedy against sud
den starts of impatience is sweet and
Iamlable silence. However little one
speaks, self-lOve viii have q share in It,
and some word win escape that may
sour the heart and disturb its peace FOR
"a considerable time. When nothing i
said, and cheerfnlness preserved, the
storm subsidies; anger and indiscretion
are put to fight, and nothing remains
but a joy pure and lasting.-[F Francis de
.S1ieS.
The exercise of purifying the soul
neither can nor ought to end but with
our life; let us then not be discouraged
at the sight Of our imperfections. for
perfection consists in fighting against
them; and how can we fight against
them without seeing them, or over
come them without eDcountering them?
Our victory lies not iu an insensibiIity
of them, but in refusing them our con-
sent.-C Francis de Sales.

Correspondence of the Union and American.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 30.-To-day l
visited the United States Mint and took a
stroll through its several departments. 1t
is one Of the greatest curiosity shops in the
country, ami when the reader is informed
that it is estimated that over thirty thous.
and persons visit the Institution in a single
year, he will come to the conclusion that it
is place OF unusual attractiveness. This
statement will give the reader some idea of
the number of ushers required to conduct
the stream of visitors which pours in be-
tween the hours of nine and twelve-the
perio during which the institution is
thrown open each day to the public
through the building, and the tax upon
their patience to explain time and again
every thing connected with its several de-
partments, the process of converting the
various metals into coin, and the history Of
the various coins preserved in the cabinet.
HISTORY OF THE MINT
The Mint was established by the act of
Congress of April 2, 1902, and building
was soon after erected on Seventh street,
near Market, for the use of the institution.
The first director was David Rittenhouse,
LID, who was appointed by President
Washington, April IA, 1892. From that
time until the present the following named
gentlemen have occupied the Directors
chair:

NY UNCAPPrNG INSTRUMENT.

After had procured for myself an ex-
tractor, for some time uncapped the
combs by means Of 8 sharp knife. But
this was too tedious work, sol set to work
10 invent a machine that would do the I'M
Gaping. To this end constructed cyl
inder inches long and inch in diameter,
in which placed pegs made out of strong
wire, at such distances apart as would cor
respond with the cells of worker comb.
With this / cut through the cover of
the cells, the work going on very
quick. But as the combs were often
much injured by the pegs, l was
not satisfied with the machine, and set to
work again to remedy this evil. The idea
then presented itself, that the covers Of the
cells being pure wax would readily melt. /
took small tin cup, put water ia it and
placed it upon a stove. When the water
began to boil, took the cup and gently slid
it over the surface of the comb. And what
joy! The cover at once dissolved and
swan upon the honey. Iplaced the thus
uncovered combs in the honey extractor
and took out the honey. The combs were
quite clean, and were not in the least in
jured. The tin cup being without cover,
the water cooled Off so rapidly, that was
compelled almost every minute to warm it
again. To remedy this, l had made an en-
tirely closed box Of tin in the shape of a
smoothing iron. 1t is inches long, 2
inches broad, and II inches high, and con-
tains about pint of water. On the top it
has small opening like flask, in which
TO pour the water. This is stopped with a
cork. A handle inches long is attached
to this.
With this instrument l uncsp my honey
combs very readily, and since the water is
shut in tightly, the instrument will not so
easily cool off, can readily uncover two
combs without rewarming.
hope that this instrument will tighten
the labors Of the bee keepers; any one can
readily have one made for himself.-Cor.
