and what was worse, hungry. He wandered
up and down, trying to solve problem that
has puzzled the ,wisest heads. The only
way he could see out of his immediate
trouble and satisfy an empty stomach was
TO help himself 10 something to eat. When
near the Academy of Music he noticed an

Glass and Its Manufacture.

The skill, proficiency and ingenuity
displayed in modern mechanics have
been in no case more thoroughly marked
and with such a true appreciation of
taste than in the manufacture of an ele-
CANT service OF glassware. In the manip-
ulation of glass the utmost care must be
exercised in the building of the furnaces
and in the material used and in all we'll.
appointed glass-worhs are TO be found a
Calcar arch, main furnace, bottoming
hole, fashlngiurnace, nose-hole and an

One Of the principal materials used is
kelp, which is first put in q calcining
furnace, where it is kept for twenty-four
hours at red heat and then into cold
water, after which ii is sent 10 the mix
ing-room, where it is placed in pots or
crucibles with carbonate of soda and
either lime or sand. As the first ouanti-
ty melts more material is added until the
pots are filed. when the heat is increased
until the metal, as it is called, becomes
clear glass. This process, which is
known as founding, takes from twenty
four to thirty hours, when the fire is

Horrible Death from the Bite or a
TarantuIa.

Mrs. JERvIs, wife of farmer living
near Sacramento, died few days ago in
this city from the bite of a tarantula.
The case is singular, and is another in
stance of the deadly attributes ofthis in
sect, not uncommon in many portions of
California Some six months ago Mrs.
Jervis, then living on her husbands farm,
had occasion to strike light, and going
to closet felt about for match. While
so doing she found something in piece
of writing paper which she thought
might be bunch of matches, and took
hold of it. As she did SO she felt sharp
pain like the prick of a needle or pin,
and found something attached to her
fore finger She screamed with terror.
Her husband rose, lit candle, and to
his horror discovered that she was bitten
by tarantula-whose poison is deadly
unless the wound be Immediately cauter-
lied. He told his wife that she had
only one chance of her life, to have the
injured part cut out. She consented,
and getting his razor he cut piece one
inch square out of her finger. The I'M
fortunate woman stood the operation
heroically but its effects were not such
as were desired. She fingered for six
months in continual agony, her blood
literally drying up, TIL she was reduced
TO an absolute skeleton. Three months
before her death her entire right side be-
came paralyzed; yet, strange to say, the
hand had tendency to crawl, and the
fingers necessarily moved like the legs of
a spider. This feeling she said she could
not control and it presents ore of the
strongest phases of this disease, though
usual accompaniment, so averred, of
poisoning by insects of the spider kind

MARK TWAIN, in his new book about
England, tells how he had the toothache
one night in London, and gives some
pleasing recollections of the dentists
shop which he was wont 10 patroniZe
when he lived in Elmira He says:
"One night that tooth did jump and
every time it jumped it raised my head
right off the pillow. How / did lie
awake and think about that dentists
shop in Elmira, where | had been under
torture so many times-of those pretty
dental instruments so polished and so
coldl How did long to lay my cheek
against one-one of those short, thick,
heavy, twisted chaps, with the bow
legged, fiuted and curved handles and
short, hawk's-bili jaws. How l reveled
in delight at the thought of having such
a thing clutch my refractory tooth and
yank itp With what pleasurable emo
tions came erowdipg into my mind the
recollections of that dentist and his
room and its fXtures-his big easy
chair, with the pretty differentiated
window before it, and the nice, Dig, red
glass spittoon to the left, with the hole
in the bottom, and the bits of wet cotton
and the bright pieces of gold and streams
of blood-staincd saliva on the sides.
And then the pretty little bureau, with
the bottles on the top, and the little yell
low drawers which he jerks out so gently
when seeking for some new and more
delicate instrument of torture And
then the beautiful little round, velvet
covered stand on the gas fixture, covered
| with the nice drills and pretty files, and
the lovely little crowbars with the stained
ivory handles, and the long steel crochet
needle with which he hunts for new cav
tiles, and the little round pasteboard box
full of gold plugs and the dirtylittle
napkin and the rubber ball syringe, and
the singular smell of his thumb, and all
that Oh, how nicer

Hanging Baskets.

WHAT looks better than pretty hang
ing baskets tastefnlly filled with plants.
And yet, how seldom they are to be met
with! Baskets of living plants may
easily be had in perfection; select such
kinds as will stand in rooms. AS re-
CARDS the baskets themselves, l like to
see the wire-work painted dark green
Some paint it with bright colors, which
quite spoils the effect of the flowers,
which should be gay enough, as regards
color, without any addition in the way
of paint. Inside the wire-work put a
thick layer of green moss, so as TO pre-
vent the soil from dropping through :;
over this put some broken crooks, and
then fill up with whatever compost is
best suited TO the requirements of the
plants with which the baskets are to be
filled. For summer decoration there are
numberless plants that can be grown in
baskets; but, for winter blooming, moth
ing is better, or looks more snowy, than
Rollisson's unique geranium or scarlet
Trop9lum, both of which will continue
in flower all through the winter, and
droop down gracefully all round the
basket. A basket, indeed, never locks
well unless it is furnished with some
dropping plant round the edge, as, for in
stance, with the variegated ivy.leaved
Pelargonium, called L'Elegante; while
in the center should be nicely grown
plant of Fuchsia Mrs. Marshall Pretty
baskets may also be made of silver
variegated Geranium Lady Plymouth
and bright blue Lobelia, or of blue Con
volvulus, with Christine Geranium in the
center; in fact, any flower that suits and
is put in with good taste will look well.
For large baskets suited for Hobbies
mixed foliage plants, such as variegated
Sedums, Echeverias, lresines and Gen.
taureas, have an effective appearance. A
window-box made of wood and lined
with zinc, suspended by four cords or
wires, up which can be trained creepers,
also makes pretty room ornament.
The great point as regards creeping
plants in baskets or boxes, fresh and in
good health, is to give them plenty of
water during the growing season, but
more sparingly in winter, and to keep the
leaves clean. If baskets are hung high
there should be some means of lowering
them, as it is troublesome getting up to
them every morning with steps If the
baskets are small the best way is to carry
them away and water them outside; but
IN the case of large baskets this cannot
be done, so tea-tray or something of
the kind should be placed under them to
catch the drip.-7he (LondonJ Garden.
