IT is fact well worth knowing, but
which does not seem to be generally
understood, that the amalgam of tinfoil
with mercury, which is spread on glass
plates to make looking glasses, is very
readily crystalized by sctinic solar rays.
The moral of this is to keep such glasses
out Of the direct rays Of the sun.

BLESSED be the little children who
make up SO unconsciously our ife-dis-
appointments. How many couples,
mutually unable to bear each others
faults or to forbear the causes of irrita-
ton, find solace for their pain in these
golden links which still continue to
unite them. On that they are one.
There they can really, repose. Those
fragile p ops keep them from quite
sinking disheartened by the roadside.
How often has a little hand drawn
amicably together two else unwilling
ones, and made them see now bright
and blessed earth may become in pro-
nouncing that little word "forgive. y

MoTH IN CARPETs.-One can never be
quite sure that his carpets are not being
consumed by moths, except for few
weeks after having taken them up and
thoroughly cleansed, unless something
is used to prevent their growth or de-
stroy them. This often necessitates the
taking up and cleaning of carpet that
otherwise would not need the renova-
tion. With an ingram or Lowell, this
needless labor may be saved by laying
down a damp cloth, and over it
thoroughly rubbing the edges with a
hot fat-iron this will kill the moths,
if any have accumulated. But with
tapestry, brussels or velvet, the ironing
is not effectual; besides, it Injuries the
carpet. Much hard work can be saved,
however, by removing the tacks, one
side at time, rolling back, and examin-
ing the edges. If there are any moths
they must be brushed off and burned /;
and to effectually destroy the life of all
deposits, the edges of the carpets must
be ironed, as before stated, but on the
wrong side. The edge of the carpet
lining should be thoroughly looked to,
and the exposed edge of the floor
washed, and while damp springled with
salt. III the carpet is to be folded
under in any place, sprinkle salt between
the folds, and see that the floor is well
covered with sal. for an inch or two
under the edge ofthe carpet all around.
If salt were always put under the edges
of carpets before putting them down,
moths would have but slight chance to
trouble them.

PERSONS frequently have a bouquet
of choice flowers which they would like
to preserve this is simple way to do
it; take deep plate and place the flow
ers in a vase upon it. fill the plate with
water, and over the vase set bell.glass
with its rim il the water. The air in
the glass becomes moist, which will
cause the flowers to remain fresh and
beautiful for long time. The expert
ment may be tried ON a smaller scale by
inverting a tumbler over a rose bud in
a saucer of water.

for bleeding at the nose, is a vigorous
motion of the jaws as if in the act of

quad of paper should be placed in its
mouth, and the child instructed to chew
it hard, OF course the adult does not
need the paper. 1t is the motion of the

DRoPsY OF CRoP.-When fowls are
troubled with this complaint the crop
is distended with an ill-swelling liquid.
the appetite fails, and the birds are dull
and disincliEed TO move about. In
snch cases We have opened the crop by
making an incision about half au inch
in length with the points of a pair of
sharp scissors, and after allowing the
liquid TO escape, injecting with COM
mon syringe some water and carbonate
of magnesia, with which the crop was
well washed. The water was removed
through the opening, the edges of the
wound in the crop were then drawn
together with surgeons stitch, after
which the wound in the skin was closed
in the same way. The bird was then
fed with soaked bread and milk, in
which little maguesis was mixed, for
a few days, and it recovered at once.
This disease may be prevented by feed
ing the fowls occasionally with bread
aud milk. or easily digested food, and
giving some prepared chalk or magne-
sia, or pinch of copperas along with
the food.

A singular fish is found in great num-
bers in the coast rivers of Alaska. 1t
is about eight inches long, transparent
and the fattest of all the finny tribe.
This fat, however, has not the oily,
rancid taste of other fish, but is like
fresh lard. When these fish are dried
tie Indians often turn them to a novel
and practical account-burn them in
place of candles. They give a clear,
brilliant light, and are not liable to be
blown out by the wind. Mr. Manson,
Superintendent at Fort Simpson, says
that the tail should BE- lighted, instead
of the head, and each fish will burn
about fifteen minutes.

ALL the ingredients of corn, accord
ing to Leconte, may be utilized. The
grain is in the first place to be saturated
with a solution of caustic soda in large
cist rms, and transferred to cylindrical
sieves; then dipped in water, and
ground in connection with a continuous
stream OF pure or somewhat caustic
water. The quantity of soda, depend
ing on its quality, the oily contents of
the grain, and the temperature, should
be such as to saponify the oil of the
grain while allowing the starch to ap-
pear solid and firm. The liquid, as it
leaves the mill, passes over sieves, on
which the germs, hulls, ETC., are re-
tanned, while the starch and soap pass
through, and flow over large inclined
surfaces, upon which the starch settles
and the dilute soap solution collects in
cisterns. The starch is then washed
with pure water in cisterns, again
passed through sieves into cisterns,
allowed to settle twenty-four hours,
and, after drawing off the supernatant
liquid, removed and dried. Excellent
soap may be obtained from the dilute
solution, and the germs, etc, can be
utilized in paper manufacture.
