STEEL PENs-How MApE.--Steel pens,
which are chiefly manufactured at Bir.
mingham, England, made from the best
steel, which is first rolled into narrow
strips of the required width and thick
ness. These are then cleaned by the
action of some diluted acid, and cut by
means of a punch worked by q screw
press into fiat blank pieces of the re-
quired size. The name Of the maker
is then stamped ON each pen, after
which the blank is curved into nib, or
q cylinder if o barrel pen is required.
Up to this stage the steel is worked in o
soft state; the pens are now hardened
by being heated and cooled suddenly
by immersion in oil, after which they
are tempered to the required degree Of
elasticity, polished by being placed with
fine sand or some other polish material
in o revolving cask, and the nib ground
to fine point on grindstone, or en-
cry wheel. After this the slit is cut by
o chisel worked by screw press, and
the pens made ready for sale by being
colored and vanished. The manufac-
ture is chiefly carried on by women.
men being employed only to repair the
tools. It is estimated that loo, ,000, :
600 pens are manufactured annually at
Birmingham. The principal demand
for steel pens in the United States, and
many countries of Europe, is supplied
from this source. a42la st.a.ss ees2'

GOOD ADVICE TO FISHERMEN.

FrRsT-Find out If there are any fish
in the river to which you are going; il
so get some one who knows the water
to show you where the fish lie; and
when he shows them to you, don't show
yourself to them.
Second-Don't imagine if the fish
does not dart away, that he has not
seen you; ON the contrary he is very
likely devoting his whole attention to
you, and preparing to start the moment
danger is imminent. 4..f-.
Third-H you are fishing with o fly
and you pass it neatly three times
around him and he refuses it, you need
not wait any longer, for he has seen
your line of invitation and refuses to
come. -,. s-.. .. ...... .a.,
Fourth-If you are above fish when
you hook him, get below him as soon as
you can; for if you pull him one instant
against the stream and he is heavy
fish, he will break his hold. 'i
'Fifth--Neyer throw q long line If q
short one will answer as well. ina Ysy
Sixth Never mind what may be
said about "playing your fish until he
is tired" put him in your basket as
soon as possible. a...t .1
Seventh-Remember thatall depends
upon the way you begin your acquaint-
ance. If you can prevail upon fish to
go down the stream q little way with you,
you will afterwards have no difficulty
in persuading him to let you have the
pleasure Of his company to dinner.
Last-Never fall in love with wo-
man by the water side, there are situa-
tions when every woman looks an angel.
DRNKNa wArER.-Dr. Hall is op-
posed to the immoderate drinking Of
water. He says: The longer one
puts off drinking water in the morning,
especially in the summer, the less he
will require during the forenoon.
The less man drinks the better for
him, beyond q moderate amount. The
more water o man drinks the more
strength he has to expand in getting
rid of it, for all the fluid taken into the
system must be carried out, and as there
is but little nourishment in water, tea,
coffee, beer and the like, more strength
is expended in expended in carrying
them out of the system than they i'm
part to it. The more man drinks the
more he must perspire. either by lungs
or through the skin; the more carbon
is taken from the system; but this car
bon is necessary for nutrition, hence
the less a man is nourished the less
strength he has. ..,.5.. s4 t....t. /.
Drinking water largely diminishes
the strength in two ways, and yet many
are under the impression that the more
water swallowed the more thoroughly
is the system washed out" Thus,
the less we drink at meals, the better
for us. If the amount were limited
to single cup Of hot tea or hot milk
at each meal, an immeasurable good
would. result to all. Many persons
have fallen into the practice Of drink.

several cups of hot tea or coffee oil
