tepid water containing 150 grains of
sal ammoniac to the quart. This salt
decomposes the acetate of soda in the
meat, forming common salt, and an
ammoniacal acetate which causes the
meat to swell, and restores to it the
odor of fresh meat. 1t is claimed
by the author of this process that by
simply removing the intestines animals
may he readily preserved whole.
Fish, poultry, and game, have been
SO treated. After sailing meat may be
dried in the stove, losing thereby
one-fourth in weight. Fish cannot be
subjected to this operation of drying.
Vegetables may be treated by this pro-
cess, but before sailing they should be
heated until they lose their rigidity.
In "A hours they may be pressed and
dried in the air. When used they
must be stepped Il hours in fresh

Am Existing Rance Of Pigmies.

DIR. Schweinfurth, who has travelled
extensively in Central Africa, recently
entertained the Berlin Geographical
Society with an account of adiminutive
race of men, the Acca, whom he takes
to be the originals of the Pigmies
celebrated in Grecian literature, agree
ing with Aristotle in the opinion that
the Pigmies Of Homer and of Hero
dotus were not altogether creatures of
the imagination. DIR. Schweinfurth
made diligent inquiry, wherever he
went, as TO the existance of dwarfish
races of men. On the upper Nile he
was told of men "not over three feet
in stature, wearing white boards, who
were skilled in elephant-hunting an
who sold ivory to foreign traders" But
II was at the court of Munsa, King of
the Mombuttu, that he first saw an in
dividual of this diminutive race. lone
morning." says he, T" the camp rung
with Joyous shout, as my people
brought in curious timid little man,
the palpable embodiment of myths
which have been current for ever so
long" BY means of gifts and kind
usage the pigmy vas induced to take
seat, when he was measured and his
portrait taken. He stated that he was
the head of family, living half an
hours journey from the capital that
his tribe are called Acca, and that their
country lies south OF that of the Nom
buttu that they had been con-
quered by the latter, and settled in the
neighborhood of the royal resi-
hAf
(thirty-nine inches), and albeit he had
a pendent belly and very slender
shanks, he performed Incredible feats
of agility. On the next day several
others of his tribe. induced by the
promise of gifts, paid our traveller
visit, and they too were measured and
had their portraits taken. 1t is to be
regretted, however, that during the
entire three weeks stay of the doctor
at Munsa's court, he never had the
good fortune to see a pigmy woman.
But why did he not go TO the settle
ment and visit the ladies himself?
The Acca are noted warriors, not
withstanding their diminutive stature.
1t happened during Schweinfurth's stay
at the court that King Mumery, es-
corted 10y several hundred Acca war
riors, paid visit to his brother Munsa,
bringing him share of the plumber
taken in a recent campaign. These
Tikltiki (men who understand war;
fought sham battles for the entertain
ment of the traveller.
The only domestic animal among the
Acca is the common barnyard fowl, and
IL is worthy of remark that an ancient
mosaic at Naples pictures the pigmies
in company with such fowls. The
Acca are much superior, morally, to the
Bushmen, and are of great service to
King Munsa, who, in turn, deserves
the thanks of ethnologists for saving
from extinction so interesting a race

A Fearful Fall.

Three young men went across from
Lerwick to the adjoining island of
Bressay to enjoy themselves. After
rambling along the seashore around
the island, they went on the headland
Of Moss, and assembled TO the top of a
cliff which is $50 feet in height At
this season Of the year the sea fowl are
breeding ON the cliffs in large numbers,
and one Of the party, David Affleck, 20
years old, had gone to roll a stone over
the top in order TO raise the birds.
when he oyerbalanced himself aud
tumbled down the giddy height. His
companions, from the spot where they
were, could render no assistance, but
descended TO the bottom as speedily as
possible. boat was brought round.
Nothing, however, was To- be found,
except a few loose tufts of grass on
the rocks that had been dislodged as
the young man descended. He had
fallen TO tho sea, and his body, at the
time the mail left, had not been recov-
cred. Some conception of the distance
may be arrived at by recollecting that
the cliff presented perpendicular Of
more than one-tenth OF mile.

in some of these now, and am well
pleased Everything that is essential
can be made for one dollar. Some,
however, would prefer few extras in
the way of paint and finish, but these
are to please the eye, not help the bees.
The movable comb principle you
must have, and deep frame is
far the best. Make a frame about
one foot square, and have your hives
arranged so that the hive will hold
eight, ten, or even twelve of these
frames if you wish If the extractor is
to be used land you will find this to
pay the best), the extra frames can be
placed at the sides of the hive; but if
you want box honey, or honey in the
comb, have your hives made so that
one can be placed above the other,
then You can have double or single

tempted to try several kinds of frames;
in that way you lose half the advantages
OF movable combs and don't be tempt
ed into bothering the bees, or making
hiding places for the worms, by invest
ing in frost-proof or "moth. proof"
humbugs. Movable frames on which
there is no patent, and plain box, is
all YOU need.

CUCUMBER SALAD. "A lady correspon-
dent of Hearth and Home says: 1--WE
have Just prepared our winters supply
of cucumber salad, and this is how we
made il: There were about a dozen
ripe white spine cucumbers lying on
our vines, and these we picked, washed,
pared, cut into strips, taking out the
seeds, and then, to each dozen cucum-
bers, which we cut into pieces like
small dice, we put twelve large white
onions, chopped; six large green pep
pers, also chopped one-1uarter pound
each OF black and white mustard seed,
and a gill of celery seed. These were
mixed together, a teacup of salt added,
aud they were then hung up in a cotton
bag to drain for twenty iouI hours.
Then the salad, with enough clear,
cold vinegar added TO cover il, was
put into stone jars and fastened nearly
air tight. In six weeks 1t will be fit
for use. 1t looks as well as it tastes
so white and crisp-and makes an ele.
CANT salad for a joint of cold meat. II
is not like the Spanish salad that re-
quires a counsellor for salt, a miser
for vinegar, a spendthrift for oil, and
a mailman to stir it up, but it is quite
as good in its way, and not very
troublesome TO Make
ACETATE OF SODA FOR PRESERVING
Foo "A new process for preserving
alimentary substances has lately been
communicated TO the Academy OF
Sciences of Paris, the essential feature
of which consists in the use of acetate
of soda, instead of the common salt
ordinarily employed. The substance
to be preserved is to be placed in a
barrel, with layers of the acetate of
soda interposed in the proportion OF
one-fourth, by weight; and in winter
the temperature must be at least 6S
degrees L. After "a hours the barrel
must be turned, and in As hours the
operation is completed the salt having
then absorbed the water Of the meat,

The Zone OF Life.


insignificant as is the spot we inhab.
it, the zone of liie-the area which not
only all that live and breathe and move
inhabit, but in which all vegetation is
contained-is still more limited. From
the submarine forests in the lowest
depths of the sea, to the highest alti-
tude to which the condor scars, above
the perpetual snow, is but twelve
miles Within those scanty limits, six
miles of air above us, six miles of wa
ter beneath, everything that has vitality
is confined. If the salamandel lives in
the central fire, the exception is so
small as scarcely to he worth mention
ing. The air presses upon the earth
with force equal to 33 feet of water,
and upon every average human body
with a weight of fifteen tons, which
only does not quash us flat as pans
cakes, because the air surrounds us on
all sides, including our insides, and
thereby the weight is balanced. To
most us, nature is one vast
mirage, suggesting infinite delusions;
and even to the learned many things
still remain to be cleared up by slow
moving science in future ages. Who
would imagine, upon the face of the
matter, for instance, that IN an airless
world not sound could ever be heardl
On the contrary, IN still and silent
space, one would conceive that we
might hear pin drop from the moon.
Hawsbee demonstrated the contrary of
this fact in o memorable experiment
before the Royal Society, fS0years ago
He placed a clock under the receiver
of an air-pump in such way that the
striking of the clapper would continue
after the air had been exhausted; while
the receiver was full of air, the sound
was quite audible when IL was empty,
all was quiet Again, when the air
was introduced, there was feeble
sound, growing IN intensity as the air
grew denser. At the top of Mont
Blanc, the report of a pistol is no
louder than that OF a common cracker
let off at the level of the sea. "Above
two miles," says Mr.. Glaisher,
who, as everybody knows, is an aero
naut of considerable experience, call
noise ceases. / never encountered a
silence more conplete and solemn than
in the heights of the atmosphere-in
those chilling solitudcs to which no
terrestrial sound reaches" On the
other hand, clouds absolutely facilitate
the transmission of sound. Above
great city, to the height of from 1000
to 1900 feet, there is always a noise,
"immense, colossal and understandable. !"
The whistle of steam engine is heard
at 10, 900 feet, the noise of train at
5000, says M. Flammarion; but Mr..
Glaisher testifes TO having heard this
latter when $4,000 feet mp in the air
