A red ink for marking clothes,
which is not attacked by soap, alkalies,
or acids, is prepared as follows
Enough of finely-powdered cinnibar to
form a moderate thick liquid is very
intimately mixed with egg albumen
previously diluted with an equal bulk
of water and beaten to a froth, and
filtered through a fine linnen. Marks
formed on cloth with this liquid by
means of a quill are fixed after they
have become dry by pressing the cloth
on the other side with hot iron.
The ink will keep i'll well closed bot
ties for a long time without separation
OF the suspended cinnibar. A black in
delible ink is made one and two-thirds

of distilled water and adding two
parts of gum arabic and one.third part
of Sea-green.

THE FIRESIDE.
ON THE SEABOARD.

Draw back the curtain see the bar is safe;
how the old cottage quivers to the blast
Look how the wild waves OH the headlands
clate,
And the black clouds drive onward, fierce
The white surf boils upon the rocky strand
Pray God no ships driving to the land!i
How the blue lightning dazzles in its flare
saw poor Mary crouching in her nook;
Its lurid brightness lit her tossing hair
And all the strange intentness Of her look.
Ten years ago the Rose was lost, you know,
And still she keeps her dreary vigil SO.
IA shattered wreck" YOU'D call her; she we
Our seaside Pearl, our blue-eyed, rosy
Ere girlish ioveliness shrank, marr'd and
shamed,
Sweetheart and brother drown'd together lay
When the Rose founder out there in the bay
Yonder she watch'd, in impotent despair,
The rocket fall, the lite-boat driven back,
The dying shrieks were shrilling through the
air,
And the huge pillows rolling, fierce and
Drove the good ship on to her headlong doom,
And thunder'd ore the sailors wandering
tomb.
She says that voices whisper in the waves,
When moon and tide at flood and flows are
met,
And tell her, down among the coral caves,
Her lover lives and loves and waits her yet
"When storm and wind break through his
chain, he'll keep.
The tryst he made at foot of Brunswick Steep
So when the tempest wakens in the north,
And all the air thrills with the ocean roar,
Its summons calls her from the ingle forth
To watch for Willie on the sounding shore
To stretch weak arms and tire aching eyes
To greet her love, at last allow'd to rise.
Poor child! the great waves thunder at her
1eet,
The lighthouse beacon flashes through the
dark,
The 'wider'd brains delusion, sad and sweet.
Give life's one brightness, like yon saving
spark.
Well, close the curtains, there's no sail in
sight;
God guard the mariners at sea tonight.

Flower Beds.

Tho Boston Cultivator says:
Flower beds should be thoroughly
dug previous to planting, and not have
little manure spread ON the surface,
and then dug carelessly over. Beds
which are to be filled with geraniums,
cannas, caldium esculentum, ETC..
should be dug over two spadings deep
and the soil we'll pulverized during the
process. Pleanty Of good fresh ma
nure should be applied and put we'll
down so as to attract the roots as far
from the surface as possible. which
greatly aids plants from being affect
ed by the drought during the months
Of July and August. Geranium roots
will penetrate the soil to a great depth
in search of food, and unless such
plants as cannas and caldiums are sup
piled with plenty of nourishment they
will never have a vigorous appearance,
nor much beauty. The best manure
for flower beds is good, fresh, barn
yard manure. 1t has considerable
''body'' to it, and plenty of manure
applied to the soil in the spring will
do more in resisting the drought in
the summer than all the artificial Wa
I CcIlllS NlllCll lHity Dc gwen. 11tIu It,
tentive clay soils, which are deficient
in vegetable matter should have it APP
piled in as large quantities as possible;
decayed leaves and vegetables answer
well for flower beds, if plenty of
farmyard manure accompanies them.
The excreta of animals applied to the
soil returns what was originally taken
from it. Only SO long as we put into
the soil what's necessary for supply
ing suitable support to the plants
which are to be grown on the soil can
we expect to see full development in
those particular plants. Such plants
as caldiums and castor oil beans re-
quire large supply Of food to bring
them to perfection. A large quantity
of manure put into the ground will
not benefit them, however, if it does
not get air and moisture to convert it
into suitable condition so that the
roots can absorb it, and these are best
obtained in the soil by deep digging
and thorough pulverization.

How to Clean Il Clock.

An English writer gives the follow.
ing directions for cleaning clocks.
which suit all metal clocks, and the
larger and coarser they are the better {:
Dip feather into common paraffine
oil, such as are used for lamps, and
touch up all the oily places of the
clock, especially axles and holes then
let the clock stand a few hours. give
more paraffine, and touch oftener if
you think it is better for it. After
ward strew strong washing powder
among the wheels, ETC., and plunge
the clock into strong solution of the
same in boiling water. Let it lie
therein till the water gets cool enough
to place your hands in, when, with a
tooth brush rubbed with soap, wash
out the dirt from the works. After
ward cleanse completely from all trace
OF soap and powder in plenty of warm
water, and the operation is complete,
the clock not having required to be
taken asunder at all. Many an old
clock should be cleaned by this
method, which if taken asunder, even
by skilled hands, would never tick
again, owing to fresh portions of
wheels being placed in contact.
