MAKING MONEY OUT OF PANCAKE.

The Belfast (Me.) Journal tells how
all enterprising woman is making
money there: "It is not of that article
of diet made by cur grandmothers
that VIC are to speak. but pancake Of
lees digestible nature. manufactured
at the Belfast shoe factory. Nothing
in the shape of leather is. allowed to
go to waste in that institution. Even
the shavings from sole leather have
their use, and from them the pancakes
are made. The shavings are placed
upon table. before the operatives,
who separate and carefully spread
them out within a small casing with
paste, in layers, like raisins in a box,
first leather, then paste, and the
whole patted down compactly., When
a cake is completed, it is about foot
in length, inches wide, and half an
inch in thickness. They are then laid
away to dry, and in three or four days
are ready for use, which is to be cut
up into inner heel lifts. Their manu-
facture is not very pleasant lot, as
the girls who make them are up to
their elbows in paste. When the fac
tory first started, this work was given
to Alma House, at cents per cake.
She was so expert that she could easi-
ly make 100 per day Being an enter
prising woman, and seeing money
ahead, she closed < contract with the
proprietors for the sole manufacture
at cents apiece, and then hired help.
To-day she has an apartment off the
sole room, and employs six women.

PURITY OF CHARACTER.

Over the outer coat of plum and
apricot there grows bloom more
beautiful than the fruit itself-a soft,
delicate powder that overspreads its
rich colors. Now if you strike your
hand over that, and it is once gone, it
is gone forever-it only appears once.
The aower that hangs in the morning
imperled with dew-arrayed with
iewels-once shake it, so that the
beads roll of. and you may sprinkle
water over it as long as you please,
yet it can never be made again what
it was when the dew fell gently on it
from heaven.
On frosty morning you may see
the panes of glass covered with land
scapes, mountains. lakes and trees,
blended into beautiful, fantastic pic
ture. Now lay your hand upon the
glass, and by the least scratch of your
finger, by the warmth of the palm, all
the delicate tracery will be obliterated.
So there is in youth beauty and
purity of character, which when once
touched and defiled, can never be re-
stored-a. fringe more delicate than
frostwork, which when torn and
broken, will never be repaired. When
q young lad or girl leaves the parents
house, with the blessings of a mothers
tears still wet upon the cheek. if early
purity of character be once lost, it is a
loss that can never be made up again.
Such is the consequence of crime.

. THE DELUsIONs OF SMELL,


To complete these details, it remains
to. say something of the delusions of
the sense of smell. This sense, like
the others, has its alterations and hal
lucinations. The deIusions of smell
are hardly ever isolatad, or occupy
those Of hearing, sight, taste, and
touch, and are also less frequent than
the latter. Insane people, who are
affected with them complain of being
haunted by f9tid emanations or con-
gratulate themselves on jnhaling the
most delicious perfumes. Lelut men
tions the case Of woman. an inmate
of La Salpetriere, who fancied that
she constantly perceived q frightful
stencil proceeding from the decay Of
bodies in the courts of that institution.
Impressions of the kind are generally
very annoying. zBrierre de Boismont
relates the account of q woman affect
by disorder of all her senses. When
eyer she saw a weIl-dressed lady pass
ing she smelt the odor of musk, which
ives intolerable to her. If il were a
man, she was distressingly affected by
the smell OF tobacco, though she was
quite aware that those scents existed
only in her Imagination. CapelIini
mentions that woman, who declared
that she could not bear the smell of q
rose, was quite ill when one of her
friends came i'm wearing one, though
the unlucky flower was only artificial.
Such facts might be multiplied !; but,
as they are all alike, it is not worth
while to mention more OF them. The
observations made in insane asylums,
among others, those of M. Provost, at
La SAIpetricre, have show also that
these delusions and perversion of the
sense of smell are more common than
had hitherto been supposed among
such invalids, aud that if they usually
pass .unnoticed, it arises from the fact
that nothing spontaneously denotes
their existence.-Populdr Science

THE white of an exg has proved

THE white of an egg has proved of
late the most effieacious remedy for
burns. Seven or eight successive ap-
plications of this substance sooths the
pain and effectually exclude the burn
from the air. This simple remedy
seems preferable 10 collodion or even
cotton. Extraordinary stories are
told of the healing properties of a new
oil which is made from the yolks of
hens eggs. The eggs are first boiled
hard, the yolks are then removed,
crushed, and placed over fire. where
they are carefully stirred until the
whole substance is just on the point
of catching fire, when the Oil separates
and may be peurd off. 1t is in gener-
al use among the colonists of Southern
Russia as a means of curing cuts.
