To ten pounds of paris white add
half a pound of best white glue. Soak
the glue for twenly-four hours in a tin
pail containing half a gallon of warm
water. Let it stand near the stove to
keep warm. When about ready to mix
mp your materials, set the glue-pail in
a kettle of boiling water, and stir until
it is all dissolved. The paris white is
to be put in a pail that you use for the
work, and hot wat r stirred into it un.
til IT is thin enough for putting on with
a brush and the glue is then mixed
with it, when the material is ready. II
can be put on with a large sized com.
mon painters brush, in the same man,
ner that you spread paint or use
whitewash brush. The brushes used
by the calciminer may be had at the
drug stores, and cost from four to eight
dollars, but will do no better work thar
a common round brush, as stated above,
and which will be the best in the hands
of an amateur. A very thin coat is the
best, as & thick one may crack. You
will have to thin the material with hot
water from time to time. If you are
careful, there is no need in scattering
the wash over carpets and furniture.
Dip the end of the brush in as you
would in paint and you will have nc
dripping.
One time I brought home a five dol.
lar calcimining brush but, after using
it a day, the hired girl put it in a pal
of water to soak, and the next day it
was ruined. Clean your brush when
done with it, and put it away to dry. Il
put in water, see that the band does
not get wet and IN no account permit
the water to reach the upper end of the
brush. You must bear in mind that ar
excess of glue, and sizing of flour that
some people use, will make the white.

Railroads in India.

The first railroadin India was compile.
ted and the first train of cars started in
1852. Since that time over five thous.
and miles of railway have been BULL
and put into operation. The East In.
dia railway, northwest from Calcutta,
extends fifteen hundred miles, and the
Great India P~eninsular railway,
northwest from Bombay, with its
branches, is about the same length.
Passengers by this line are now less
than three days between Calcutta and
Bombay. thus saving the long sea voy-
age around Cape Comorin. In spite Of
the restrictions of caste, railway travel.
ing is very popular with all classes OF
the natives, who are packed promiscu-
ously in the cars and, in fact, this
very mingling is doing more to break
down the distinctions of caste, which
have so long and so widely separated
the different ranks, than could possibly
be done by any appeal to reason or con
Science and civilization are
thus rapidly breaking down the barriers
Of superstition and prejudice, and
promoting practical brotherhood, and
preparing the way for the progress Of
ruth.

1 have recently seen an experiment
in corr planting which / think may
prove instructive to some of my brother
farmers of the south, at least. One
acre of land (red clay was taken sum-
mer before last, after the wheat was cut
off, and sown broadcast with "cow
peas" When the vines had reached
their growth previous to Towering, six
ty bushels of Stacked. lime was applied
to them. The whole was then turned
under with a two-horse pillow. In this
state the lot remained until last spring,
when it was broken up and laid off three
and one-half by three AID one-half feet
Il think the corn was planted, two
grains in a check. 1t received the usual
cultivation of this section--that is, three
plowings and two hoeings Except that
it was not bedded). The acre yielded
seventy.six and three.fourths bushels
by actual measurement. The seed used
is peculiar. 1t was selected by the gen.
tleman who made the experiment, seye-
which, however, did not come to p r
lection. The yield of the stalk was five
pounds Of corn. This corn has become
quite celebrated, and is one of the many
proofs of the value of a careful selec.
ton. This yield of se~venty-six and
three fourths bushels may not strike
the northern farmers as anything re,
~markable, but if they will remember
that our average is only ten bushels Of
corn per acre, they will at once see the
value of the foregoing to southern agri,
culture. One bushel OF peas will broad.
cast the acre and cost one dollar; the
lime here, scattered, will cost ifteer
cents per bushel. The lot is now il
wheat, and its owner expects it to pro
duce twenty five or thirty bushels
which for this country will be a goot
yield. The experiment will not cos
much, and l am sure will repay an,
farmer. Clover, perhaps, will increas,
the yield of both wheat and corn. On
acre of such land is worth more thai
eight cultivated as we generally do

NAMED, and that was to predict that af-
ter a comet had passed n certain place
there would be a shower of meteors,
Il the prediction would be confirmed
then there would be a new kind OF
evidence. The meteors following BIZ
elias comet furnished that evidence.
Alexander Herschel, in England, pre-
dicted that, when the earth came to that
part of her orbit-Nov, 26, 1S72-there
would be probably a great display of
meteors. That happened. 1t was a
glorious display in England and Am ii
ca, but it was still more gloriously seen
in Italy, where it appeared with all the
glory of the large meteors, with n great
| number of minute ones. That shower
came from the foot of Andromeda, or
the exact spot that the comet would
have followed if it had struck the earth,
Here then is n very striking feature in
the economy of Il solar system. The
meteors are following in the cour c of
the comets.
Meteors are expelled from the sun
and from the larger planets, and this
can be proved. Ii comets and meteors
are expelled from the planets they will
be carried along with the forward mo-
ton, and there is this curious fact that
all the comets of short periods, the
whole of Jupiter's comet family, travel
forward. They do not travel in all di'
rections of slope all have a very mod,
crate slope to the path of the planet
They do not have the slope even o
some OF the asteroids. That is precisely
what we notice-that they travel yer,
much with Jupiter. Taking the balanc,
between the two theories-that of eX
pulsion and that of capture--it seem
to be in favor of the more startling on
that Jupiter has had the power TO ex
pei these objects.
The fact must be remembered, tina
while showers of meteors are uuusuG
phenomena, meteorites fall every da
and every hour of the day. Our cart
, is absolutely growing by these. TIL
= time is actually past when the earth
growing visibly, but yet immens
q amounts of matter are added to it j
q this way. And not only the earth, bl
the moon and Mercury, and we ms
say all the planets are growing und,
! this meteorlc downfall. How are v
/ protected from THIS downfall, with 40C
:. 600, 600 of them every day? The IA
at which they arrive Is very much mo
;. rapid than that OF a bullet. If the
A was no protection we should certain
be destroyed. The protection is Il
i atmosphere. When a meteor encou
ters the atmosphere its velocity is fiji
% reduced, and then it is consum
through the neat which is generate
a and falls in the shape of a vaporo
f dust. On the tops of mountains t
material Of these meteors has be
in found.

The game called "shadow-show is
thus played A sheet is suspended
tightly across a darkened room, a can
die (%never a kerosene lamp lighted and
placed upon the floor q few feet behind
it, and the selected players arc ranged
behind the candle. All being ready for
the show, the players, dressed in any
comic way, may perform what funny
%pantomime they choose between candle
and sheet, and their shadows will be
projected upon the latter to the up
roarious amusement of the audience on
the other side. By jumping over the
candle, from before it, the jumper is
made to disappear very laughably and
surprisingly in the air.
