Waterproof Paper.

Common paper, by very simpk pro-
cess, may be converted into substance as
strong as parchment, by means of sulphu-
ric acid. The paper is simply dipped in
the acid but the acid must be of an ex-
actly determined strength, and mixed with
half its bulk Of water. A sheet of paper
dipped in this liquid is almost instanta-
neously changed in character. 1t becomes
tough, hard and ihrous, but its weight is
not increased, and il is far better for wri-
ting purposes than animal parchment. It
can be rubbed better than paper, and al
most as well as sheep-skin and il serves
for yellum in binding, and for all le-
gal purposes, and as substitute for blad-
ders to cover pickle and jam jars; and
any paper that has even been printed on
may be converted, by means Of sulphuric
acid, into vegetable parchment. Paper
can be made waterproof without giving it
the character OF parchment, by dissolving
twenty-four ounces Of alum and four
ounces of white soap in two pounds of
water; the two solutions are to be mixed,
and the sheets of paper dipped into the
mixture while warm. They are then to
be hung up to dry, and pressed Thus
paper is very useful for packages exposed
to the damp, or for any purpose connected
with the epreservation of articles from mois.

The SHALLowNEss OF BETTING
The habit Of Offering to bet, which bcsets
many persons in ordinary discourse, is a
mark of an untutored intellect. The man
who has no better argument is pcrpetually
offering to bet; ii seems as if he wanted
reasoning powers, and therefore he backs
every trivial allegation with bet. This
is an expedient, however, which no rational
person should resort to. A company Of
well-informed and sensible men will enter
tain each other with easy conversation for
whole evening, and, amidst lighter mat
ters, settle many questions in morals or in
logic, without ever SO much as thinking Of
bet. Il is no more ne cessary to reason
ing than swearing or slang Is to language,
but on the contrary, disgraces IL; and
hence, even as matter of taste, the sensi-
BILE man rejects ii.

SoASDAL.-It was the saying of an old
acquaintance Of ours, when his attention
was called to anything that had smack
ing Of scandal in it, II have so much to
do that | can not hear it. 0ne-half my
time is taken up with my own business,
the other half with letting alone that of
my neighbors." How many excellent op-
portuuities of letting alone other peoples
business are sighted; and the world is
troubled with the Interference Of people
with what does not concern them. Neigh
borhoods are driven crazy by the reports
pfidle or mischievous people, who watch
for occasions Of scandal, and lose no oppor-
tunity of making it public, regardless of
its truth, or Of the injury 1t inAicts upon
the feelings of others. Gossip passes for
fact, aud surmise for history; and the nim-
bic lie runs many league while the truth
is putting on itsboots.

Tue cap Wnen heafd move above and
behind me, and one tiger, or rather tigress,
coming down upon me. / turned sharp
and sent shell smashing through her
side, and she attempted to rush up the
bank again, but fell backwards dead at my
feet. No sooner was this over than the
other came down to my right, and gave
him right and left, and sent him stag
gering back. He crossed the bank and
was going up the hill on the other side,
and although | could not see him, heard
his huge body slip aud crush the under
wood, and breathed again much more
freely. | reloaded my gun, stopped down
and had jolly drink Of water, for, to tell
you the truth, my tongue was pretty dry,
and | should not be far out if i said the
want of moisture was caused by something
very like "blue funk" II nearly re-
quired all the nerve / had Well, alas
| was doomed to still greater trial. There
was my first wounded bird, of whom I had
seen nothing; 50 | thought with one |
might venture out Of my place, so got up
on the bank as quickly as possible, and
ordered the beaters again to throw in a
volley of stones. This was answered by
roar; but old striped jacket would not
come out. l repeated the dose many
times but it was no go. l then thought
he was 50 badly hit he could not come out
but man in tree said he was moving
about, bleeding very much. / could not
get to the tree, for ! should have had to
creep through the jungle. At last / was
told he had laid down in very thick
clump near rising bit Of sand. was
not inclined to lose him, and did not like
going in at him in such awful ground.
However, after many attempts to force
him out, | sent all the beaters of, took
three Of my keepers with spare guns and
walked towards the rising sand. | threw
stone after stone into the clump; but not
a sound. / moved on, and when within
three yards of the place, one Of my men
swore he could not see him under the
covert. looked, and looked in vain; I
l could see nothing SO, catching up my
single-shell rife, told my men in a whis-
per, will go on. If put my hand
behind me, one man is to stand fast, with
my double rife ready, the others to retreat
slowly" | moved on about two PAGES,
when l thought l saw my friend, and put
my hand behind me, knowing that when
once tiger sees any one move away after
he is discovered he charges at once. 1t did
not take second. / barely got my hand
on my rife when the huge beast was upon
me. | had to throw my body back to get
my rife up without its touching him. The
blood and breath from his mouth spatter-
cd all over my face, hands and neck. But,
by Gods goodness, | was steady, and pull
ed as he came on. The shell entered the
brow just over the eye, burst in the brain,
and literally blew his skull to pieces. He
fell dead, with his formidable paws not
four inches from my feet. thanked God
and sat down, when yell from all the
beaters (some 3OO) made me more refresh

days sport have ever had.

UTILIZATION OF A WgED.--The com-
mon cat-tail of our swamps, scientifically
known as typhu iatitoiia, is susceptible of
being used as food, for which purpose it
is highly estimated in some countries.
The plant is perennial and propagates by
the formation Of underground stems con-
tanning much starchy matter. In South.
ern Russia the young shoots when they
push up in the spring are cut and tied up
as asparagus is for our markets, and sold
in all the markets. Boiled as asparagus is
boiled and seasoned with salt and spice, it is
nounced quite delicious by travellers who
have purtaken Of it. This plant is found
in more or less abundance in swampy
places all over the United States, and may
be very easily introduced in places where
il does not grow already.

A recently made benedict writes as fol-
lows concerning his young wife's habits
" If there was bedroom mile long, and
her entire wardrobe could be packed in
band box, still you'd find portions Of that
wardrobe scattered along the whole mile Of
dressing-rOom. She's nice thing tolook
at when put together, but this wonderful
creature is evolved from chaos interim
nable Of pins, ribbons, rags, powder, thread,
brushes, combs and laces. If there were
seven thousand drawers in your room, and
you asked for but one to be kept sacred
and inviolate for your own private use,
that particular one would be full Of hair
pins, ribbons and soiled cuffs. Some pro-
visions, some projection in this matter
should be inserted In the marriage service. =

The New Brunswick, N. J. Times, of
the I'd instant, relates the following -
"The myriads Of sparrows that nestle in
the ivy, which clings to and almost entire
ly covers the walls of Christ Church, occa-
sionally display surprising amount of
intelligence in their little acts Of kindness
to each other. This was beautifully illus
trated yesterday morning about ten o'clock.
From tree located about opposite to
Northrop's in Church street a sick or
crippled sparrow fell to the ground and
futtered about the sidewalk in vain efforts
to regain place of safety. Several of its
little companions gathered around it aud
seemed greatly concerned for it, and by
their incessant chirping attracted swarm
Of the little-winged converts from the
church walls. Efforts were then made by
several of the number to lift the helpless
bird by catching its wings in their beaks,
but there seemed to be difficulty in get
ting started together, and the effort was
futile, and then the ehattering increased
perccptibly, as if there was a general
scolding going on. Presently several Of
the birds flew away, one shortly returning
with a twig about four inches long and an
eighth of an inch thick. This was drop
ped before the sick one, and at each end
was picked up by sparrow and held up
so that the sick bird was enabled to catch
the centre Of the twig in its beak, and with
tho aid Of the other two it flew over the
fence into the churchyard, and from tomb
stone to tombstone until the church was
reached, when they disappeared in the ivy,
followed all along by the swarm Of their
companions, chirpiug as if in great joy.
The whole affair lasted about FIVE minutes,
and was viewed by several spectators"

An old man and his wife who came in
by the Central road yesterday morning,
saw about thirty hacks at the door Of the
depot and about thirty hackmen shouting
Hack at them. The man took It all
as a high compliment, and turning to the
old woman he said: / tell you, mother,
they think We are something great, or
they'd never had all these carriages down
here to meet us. ] wonder how they knew
we was coming. Detroit Free Press.

THE SUNLIGHT.
BY was. AVA CLARK ApAxs.

y
OF sweetly on the emerald earth
The beauteous sunshine fell,
/. Bathing in light the newborn flowers
That blossomed in the dell
Or opened on the hillside steep,
Or gemmed the mountains brow
It's beams searched out and kissed them all,
From nook to lofty bough.
The sunlight touched the dangling brook, .
And Frightened Oceans wave,
And here and there, through fssured rocks,
Crspt in the darksome cave.
II rested on the forests top,
Enlivening its shade
On princely edi6ce and dome
In golden showers II played.
II shone around the poor mans hut
And forced its way within
Bright birds sang sweeter for its beams
Aud man knew less Of sin IT,
It entered cen the human breast,
Filling the heart with light,
Dispelling gloom and dark despair,
The sad smile making bright.
All Nature grew more beautiful,
Each moment meath its ray,
For twas tho month that poets love,
The budding month Of May.
o ever, ever glorious Sun,
We would thy praises sing,
But never do we welcome thee
So fondly as in spring.
