Jealousy and Revenge.

A singular story of jealousy and re-
venge comes to us from Sicily. A beau
tiful young girl named Florina, who was
the belle of travelling circus in which
she figured as the lion tanner, had been
for some time receiving the attentions
of an athlete belonging to the same
troupe. By some means she ascertained
that he was not faithful to her, but had
another lady love. No signs, however,
of her painful discovery were allowed to
escape. She still smiled sweetly upon
him, but responded coldly to his ardent
caresses. In her own bosom she planned
a terrible revenge. One evening recent
ly when the performance had been un-
usually brilliant-aftcr Florina had
whipped the lions and forced them to lie
at her feet-she called her recreant lover
aside and said to him: " Do you still love
met" always" he answered. "Do YOU
know that l should die if you should de-
vote yourself to another woman."
"What an ideal" responded the Young
man. "But l should first kill YOU" said
Florina. "And how would you do that?"
"Thus," cried the girl, at the same in.
slant pushing him violently into the cage
of the lions. They attacked the unfor-
tunate man at once and tore him to
pieces, while Florina urged them on with
blows of her whip.

The " Crying DOLL"

Somebody gave Thomas Cooley's sister
"crying doll" on Christmas and Thom-
rs found much satisfaction in punching
it in the stomach SO that it would
squeak. Arguing from his experience
with the doll he concluded that his baby
brother might be made to produce noise
by the same process. So the first time
he found himself alone in the room with
the child he went up to it and gave it a
terrific dig in the abdomen. As this
knocked the breath out of the baby it
did not cry; and so Thomas placed both
elbows upon the child and pushed three
or four times with considerable violence.
Still it was silent. Then Thomas climbed
into the cradle and seating himself upon
the baby jumped up and down often
enough to produce music for any doll
baby that was properly constructed. In
the midst of the exercises he heard his
me Their coming and knocked off, with the
intention of resuming his experiments at
some future time. But he never will re-
sumo them unless the little one has a
stomach in heaven. For Thomas Cooley's
baby brother is an angel now.-Mar
Adsler, in Danbu,y Ne,cs.

A Sad Case.

A Washington ID. co. paper gives the
following account of distressing case
of kleptOmania and suicide which &C.
CURED in that city few days ago:
One of the wellknown booksellers of
this city had for some time missed books
from his stock, which he was convinced
were not sold and paid form fact, he
knew they had been stolen. lie there
fore for time closely scrutinized his
visitors, and finally made up his mind
that a certain frequent visitor to his
store was the thief. One day the gen
tleman came in and bought book He
remained some moments after paying
for it, during which time he took down
another and was looking over its pages
with apparent interest. The proprietor
passed SO close to him that he slightly
jOstled him, at which moment the back
OF the book was turned 50 that his eye
took in the title. He then turned away
moment to serve another customer,
and almost instantly heard the door shut
behind customer No. 1, who left at q
brisk pace. Going to the shelf from
which the last book was taken it was
gone! He therefore cit out" on the
street. and soon overhauled his literary
kleptomaniac. Placing his hand on his
shoulder, he said: "You have taken
from my store copy of 'Neibhur's
Lectures and you must give it to me-"
The book was handed out forth
with, with the appeal; "For Gods
sake, sir, don't expose me here in
public, for am minister of the Gospel"
After some further conversation, during
which time the offending party was fully
identified, the bookseller let him go, as
surfing him that he would not expose
him. But by some means the matter
came to the knowledge Of a reporter of
one of the Sunday papers, and the next
morning paragraph appeared in it's
columns circumstantially narrating the
circumstance, but Withholding the clcr-
gyman's name. He was all ready for
church-had re-perused his sermon for
the forenoon, when paper was put in
his hand containing the statement in
substance as we have told it, He went
to his room, and not appearing as usual
to proceed to the church search was
made for him. He was found in his
bath-roo dead-and with his throat cut
from ear to ear! The sad event made
quite sensation among his congrcga-
ton, for whom he had preached for tif-
teen years with entire acceptance. His
life had been useful and exemplary in all
respects save this alone. He could not
help stealing books! No blame was at
tached to the bookseller, for, being Il
stranger to the kleptomaniac, he could
only regard him as common thief at
the start, though he was deeply grieved
at the sad denoueanent.

Taking the Stitch in Time.

Two hardwood slaves from an old
barrel, screwed upon 1. block of wood,
make very fair pair of clamps for hold
ing leather while stitching. The top
ends should he cut so that they will
meet square]y, and the block lcv.ed SO
that the pressure together at the top will
be hard. DO not attempt to nail the
slaves to the block, for they do not hold
as well as when screwed and are very
liable to split the pieces. BY getting
shoemaker or harnessmaker to instruct
in the making of waxed-ends, the farmer
or farmers boys can keep the harness in
good rig ut all times, and the work may
be done in good shape, us the old stitches
make guide. Use needles instead of
bristles, and do the work by the kitchen
stoves on rainy days and evenings when
there is no particular hurry "a stitch
in time saves nine" applies nowhere bet
ter than to the harness, and if conven.
fences are such us not to enable one to
do repairing at home, neglect follows
and expenses accumulate.-Ohi Farmer.

Kid Gloves.

Besides kid, gloves are made of goat,
lamb, sheep, and calf skins. The rat
skin story is pure fabrication. A gen
tleman who has been in the business for
the last fifteen years told me he never
saw a ratskin glove in his life. Nearly
all the gloves sold in this country are
made in France and Germany. They are
cut ut the factories and seWed in the sur
rounding country. Italy, Sweden, En-
gland, and some other countries manu-
facture gloves, but not to the extent Of
France and Germany. The kids of which
gloves are made are taken from the
mother before they are weancd, 50 that
the skin may be of perfect quality. The
other animals of whose skins gloves are
manufactured are very carefully raised
They are never allowed in any but the
smoOthest pastures, for the slightest
bruise or scratch from stone or twig
would unfit the skin for use. There are
no Kid gloves OF any consequence manu-
featured in this country, for the reason
that it costs a great deal more than to
import them. 1t is the cheapness of labor
on the other side of the water that makes
them cost 50 little over there. People
complain of the high price of gloves in
this country, when in Europe they are 50
cheap. Perhaps we are little over
charged, but then it should he borne in
mind that the Custom House dues are
81 per cent, and that there are great
risks in the business.
10 give some idea of how great an un-
dertaking the manufacture OF kid gloves
is: The tawing or dressing of the kids
preparatory to dyeing requires twenty
four manipulations. And among the
twenty-four manipulations which con-
stitute the dressing of the skin there is
one which requires that it should pass
through eleven different hands; for the
making, it passes through tfty-six.
These facts will make the reader under
stand the quantity of labor necessary for
the making of this delicate production,
which is destined to last so short time
A skin to be dressed must pass through
l36 bands; the operation of dyeing re.
quires eighteen manipulators, the cut
tlng-out thirty-four, the sewing seven
teen, the putting in dozens and packing
twelve. A glove, from the state of skin
with the hair on to that of finished
glove, passes through 219 hands. One
large manufactory in France employs
600 hands, viz: Dressers. 200; dyers
and openers, 40; glovers, 24O; clerks and
overseers, 30; undertakers of sewing,
40; seamstresses, ALSO. This establish
ment dresses every year 100000 kid
skins, French and foreign. 1t dyes 5l2,-
wv kid skins, and cuts out 100000 pairs
OF kid gloves, which are sewn in differ
ent departments. (rhe sewing of a
woman's small glove comprises 1850
stitches.) The dressing and the dyeing
together require 1,OO0, 600 yOlks of eggs.
The yolks Of eggs are employed in dress
ing the skins and dyeing. The whites
are used for making albumen. 1t may
be that in the course of time kid glove
making will be among the industries of
America; but it is exceedingly doubtful.

much less than this.
business is remarkably lively in
Rhode Island. Nearly one-half Of the

States has recently been completed at
Nashua, N. H., at an expense Of $75, 600.
The. weight of iron in this mammoth ma

"A company of English capitalists is
being formed in London for the purpose
of exporting live Texas cattle to the
markets of the Old World. One million
dollars is the amount of capital to be
embarked in the enterprise, the profits
Of which are calculated to be immense,
say $4,000 per trip. Modern improve
ments to prevent the animals from being
injured during the sea voyage are to be
used in all steamers employed in the
business.
The polyspheric ship is the name
given to the latest novelty in nautical
construction, and is due to English in

with three inclined planes with square
ends, the effect being as though three

through the water with the sloping por-
ton of the teeth first. The inventor has
tested the device by me ans of small
models lmpelled by rockets. A seven

saying that there are in the United States
about 5000 Shakers, forming eighteen
societies. Each society has sixty fami-

during all OF which time he has not been
prevented by illness from preaching one
single Sabbath.
The majority of the Committee on
the Course of Study in the Detroit School

was ~, the number of churches Is. and
the total number of communicates below

number OF churches 106, and the total of
commandments 1861. In 1860 the num-
Der Ut churches was 81 and the total of
