MV COUSINS LOVERS.

MY COUSIN liortense was very hand.
some. and u great ilirt besides.
| WAS u little fellow then, and didn't
know "hat that meant, but | learned.
Hortense was a good1natured girl as
ever lived, but it seems as natural rs her
prettiness fora pretty girl to fiirt. '6
My cousin had three lovers. She had
scores of them for that matter, but there
were three WHO really seemed resolved
that they woula not take "no" for al
answer. e
First and foremost, because Of his
money, and because my uncle clec@':ffu favored
him. WAS Mr. Clemens .FatherLuke,
Elortchsc calico nm III ucris,u,,. IIs..-
mime was Luke Clemens, and he was old
enough to he Honcnsc's grand father, for
iliat matter.
Why he wanted asblopmingyoung girl
for a wife at his age, nobody knew. But
lie mas very, very rch.
His house stood on an cmincncc Just
ont OF town, and looked like Il great
white marble place. i7T
1t Was furnished Il in the most cxtrava-
:,aEo and lnSuIio,iSi style, and 10 sec tht
inside o. il was enough 10 make any wo-
man expire with desire to be mistress OF
lis elegance.
Is Hortensc could not withstand, lis fas-
cipations, and in.the. end she agreed to
marry Father, Luke for the sake of it, but
not yet. So s -
Next on the list was Raynall Ford Ray
nall Ford was French on his mothers
side. He had long, black hair, silky and
fine as a wonan'ss and he parted: it i'll the
middle and combed it straightbehind his
ears as u woman might. Tt gave him n
very odd look, taken in connection With
his red cheeks and heavy monstache.
He had not the ghost of a chance of
winning Hortense, thoughahesWould not
see it, for neither my uncle nor my cousin
| liked him. '''' 'a-7sosas
Hortense used to say it made her shiver
only to look at him, and J was afraid of
him myself. He used to mutter in French
and hiss outshayp words under his breath
when he was angry, that made me want
to shrink away out Of his sight. g
He was not welcome at'my unclc's
house, but there WAS no excuse for treat
| ing him otherwise than cautiously, and
he came Of a fine family, 50 continued to
come and vex my COUSIN with attentions
which lie would not see were not merely
unwelcomc but repulsivc. 5.
Hortcnsc had been to blame in the
first place, for she had smiled OH him,
and played withahim at first in most
unjustifiablc manner.
She did all she could to discourage
him. butit was too late. ne
II Last ofall was Phil Dering, dear old
Phil; nottbat he was not the youngest OF
ethem ali, but that was Il fashion Hortense
and / had of talking about him. In her
secret hearts my wicked little lirt of q
cousin loved Phil.
But as he was the poorest Of the lot,
as we'll as the handsomest, cleverest, and
kindest, she had not the smallest idea of
ever marrying him. Phil and were
great friends.

was handsome-such bright glancing

Like Oceans sob upon the shore;
The wall of storms whose wrath is Ger;
From every lofty mountain grand
1t swells and rolls through all the land.
. A country mourning DER its slain,
Who gave their lives, and not in vain,,
Since in its heart their mem'ry blooma,
Fresh rs those flowers upon their tombs.
Their toll is DER, their lahors cease,
Inwar they died, but died for peace

And Fame their glorious deeds shall tell,

How Thermometers are Made.

The glass tubes, as received, are
about yard long. A boy picks them
with hard steel knife, and breaks them
into the length required. The bores,
which are fiat, are compared, by means
of a lens, with those of ten standard
sizes, and the tubes assorted according
Iy. They are then passed to the blow
pipe table. Each glass-blower has a
foot bellows, and uses an oil lamp.
Melting the glass at one end of a tube,
he blows it into bulb by pressing the
sides of hollow india-rubber ball at
tached at the other, proportiOning the
size of his bulb to the bore of his tube,
and ascertaining the size by using pair
of callipers. While the bulb is hot,
the tube is inverted in mercury, which,
as the bulb cools, partially filIsit. The
tube is then withdrawn and q short
india-rubber tube attached at its open
end. Into this mercury is poured that
in the bulb is boiled to expel the air,
which rises up through the mercury in
the india-rubber tube, and an atmos-
phere of the vapor of mercury now fills
the glass tube and bulb. AS this con-
denses, the mercury in the india-rubber
tube takes it's place, when this tube,
with any mercury remaining in it, is
removed. The tube is now warmed,
and the open end of the glass tube her
metically sealed.
- The bulb and a portion of the tube
are immersed in melting ice, and the
height of the mercury marked they
are then transferred to a bath at 90 de-
grees Fahrenheit, and the height mark
ed /; next to bath at go degrees Fab
renheit, and the height again marked.
The length of the three spaces of 80
degrees each are now carefully measur-
ed. If they are exactly equal, the bore
of the tube is assumed to be uniform,
and the degrees laid off on the brass
scale of the thermometer are all made
of the same length. If the spaces of
thirty degrees each are not found to be
exactly equal, then, by means of a high
ly ingenious dividing engine, the de-
grees on the scale are made to increase
in length as the calibre of the tube
diminishes. When the plate has been
divided, and the figures and letters
punched, it is passed, Iaterally, between
two rollers, to remove the burr left by
the tools. Were it rolled lengthwise,
the accuracy of the dividing would be
impaired. The plate is then silvered
and lacquered, the glass tube attached,
and the whole slidden into the we'll
known iapanned tin case.
