CURIOUS AND SCIENTIFIC.


LOCUsTs AS FooD.-Professor Riley be-
lieves that grasshoppers make a good ar
ticle of diet. He says that he fried them
and roasted them, and that they have a
pleasant, nutty flavor. They are equally
good eating either boiled or stewed. We
congratulate the Professor, both on his
gastronomic discovery and on his courage.
His name bids fair to be linked bv roster
ity with that of the man who first ate AN
oyster.
SAwDUsT can be converted into lia-
uid wood, and afterward into a solid, flex-
ible, and almost indestructible mass, which
when incorporated with animal matter,
rolled and dried, can be used for the most
delicate impressions, as well "a for the
formation of solid and durable articles, in
the following manner: Immerse the dust
of any kind of wood in diluted sulphuric
acid, sufficiently strong to'efiect the fibres,
for some days; the finer parts are then
passed through sieve, well stirred, and
allowed to settle. Drain the LIQUID from
the sediment, and mix the latter with a
proportionate quantity of animal ofTal,
similar to that used for glue. Roll the
mass, pack it in mOlds, and allow it to dry.

DOUBT.

Vex me no more. No longer fill my heart
With strange unrest, so near akin to pain.
Fill up the doubling void, and bid depart
The namelesS shadow which no mortal art
Can Danish never to return again.
Break thy sad spell. Release the captive Hope,
So sadly pfning for the morning light,
Undo the bonds of charity, and Ope
Faiths slumbering vision to the wider scope
OF an immortal day beyond the night
Oh, cease thy power. Let human love rejoice
That the sweet kisses of its early bloom
Shall be perennial. That smile and voice,
That form and features of the hearts fond choice,
Shall live again beyond the cruel tomb.
I will not yield The roaming tide may rave,
And threaten direful wreck of all my love.
The eager tempest shall find me brave,
With full reliance on the power that gave,
That it will land on the shores above.

whole paper is pasted. A loose string
upon the upright diagonal receives the
string by which the kite is to be held, and
a tail is fastened to its lowest extremity.
The transverse diagonal or cross stick is
then bent back like strong bow and fast
ened by thread of catgut. OF course,
every breeze that passes the kite vibrates
this tight cord, and the vibrations are COM
municated to the highly sonorous frame
of the kite, and as numbers of these kites
are left floating in the air all night, the
effect is that ofaerial music, monOtOnous,
but full of melancholy interest y

A LIFE APART.

NV oars keep time to half rhyme,
That slips and slides away from me,
Across my mind, like idle wind,
A lost thought beateth lazily.
A dream afoat, my little boat
And alone steal out to sea;
One vanished year, o Lost and Dear!
You rowed the little boat for me.
All who can sing of anything
With none to listen lovingly?
Or who can time the ears to rhyme
When left to row alone to sea

The world is all dark or the world Is all
bright,
Just as we choose to make it,
Our burden is heavy, our burden is light,
Just as we happen to take 1t;
And people who grumble and people VINO
groan
At the world and its every proposal,
Would grumble and groan If the world were
their own,
With the sun, moon and stars at disposal.
1t Is all very well to have beautv and health,
But If ugly and sick we must bear 1t;
1t is all very we'll to have oceans of wealth,
But we find, ii we must, we can spare IL;
But healthy and wealthy, or sickly and poor,
We are wise TO be Careless and happy"
Aud gracefully try all our ills to endure,
Though we try till we're hairless ana
cappy."
Not all can be noble, not all can be great;
But our lives with Gsd's love we can leaven.
And whether of high or lowly estate
'Tis the same to our Father in heaven.
The world may seem dark or the world may
seem light,
As we cling to the old, old story;
And cheerfully work, with our lamps burn
ing bright,
Till we enter the portals of glory.
