PRISON LIFE CONDUCIVE TO LON
~ GEVlTY.

Any one reading the sentence of some
notorious criminal to a term of years in
Sing Sing or Auburn will naturally feel
pity for the evil-doer. But if it was known
that man or woman consigned to well
kept prison is actually benefited in point
of health, we would not lament their lot
to such degree. In point of fact the
records of the best English penitentiaries
show that persons chance of life are
nearly double what they would be in a
state Of freedom. Notwithstanding that
two-thirds Of the inmates enter such insti-
tutions with diseases upon them, often in
in advanced stages, yet as q result of pure
air, cleanliness and q well regulated diet,
prisons are made seats of health. In those
of Scotland, which are models of good
management, the death rate is only in
1000. Contrast this with the death rate of
II per 1000 in the British army or with
the average rate of 20 per 1000 in other
occupations, and it will beseen what mar
velous results may be obtained by proper
sanitary regulation. A high medical au-
thority declares that the Perth Prison, in
Scotland, is apparently the healthiest place
IN the world. The government inspector,
who visited it six times annually for thir-
teen years, rarely found more than two
among 75O inmates in the infrmary, while
once or twice there was no one Epidemics
rage around such institutions but do not
enter them, and we can well understand
the expression of surgeons regarding pa
tients in their private practice, "If I could
only have that case in prison could save
the life" ."-Sanitary Enquirer. .

AN improved construction for weighing
scales consists in the direct application
of the platform carrying and weight sup
porting knife edges to separate weights OF
different proportions These weights are
jointed by arms and pivot-rod, 50 that
the result is obtained of allowing the
object to be weighed being placed upon
any part of the platform-and also the
weights, having to each other quicker and
slower oscillations, tend to stop each
other, and thus bring the index sooner, to
rest The casing is provided with an ad-
Unstable device for setting the index to the
zero point of the stationary dial. To one
or more of the weights is also attached one
or moro smaller weights, which, being ad-
Unstable, can be used to increase or de-
crease the capacity of the scale, as well
as adapt it to any given dial plate. d. Ei.E@-

HEREDITARY TRANSMISSION.

A monthly contemporary gives an
amusing travelling experience of the cele-
brated French goavmand Brillat-Savarin
which certainly goes to show that he had a
son worthy of him. At country inn at
which the elder man put up he found four
turkeys being roasted, and forthwith de-
manded one for his own dinner, when to
his surprise he learnt that they had all
been bespoken for gentleman. "For
one gentleman demanded Brillat-Savarin
in an incredulous tone. eyes, monsieur" !"
''He has doubtless large party with him?'
"On the contrary, he is alone" "Do you
happen to know his name'" 81 think it
is M. Brillat-Savarin. "It must be my
son!" exclaimed the astonished father, and
desired to be shown into the room where
his offspring was dreaming of coming
pleasures. After the first greeting, the sire
demanded an explanation, which he re-
ceived in the frankest terms. ''The fact
is, sir" began this true chip of the old
block, 'there is particular slice of the
turkey of which am extremely fond, and
which, whenever am in your company,
you eat. Being alone, determined to re-
gale myself without stint on my favorite
morsel."

NEAPOLITAN MASONs AT WORK.

- 81 IL FN - - III
lam told that the lower classes always
excepting the sixty or seventy thousand
lazaaroni, who have ceased TO exist as
body, but continue, as individuals, very
effectively to prey upon the stranger-are
remarkable for their frugal and industrious
habits. Isuppose this is SO, though the
visible results which elsewhere usually fol-
low the thriftiness of population are abb
sent from Naples. However, my personal
observation of the working man was lin,
tied to watching some masons employed
on building in porcess of erection little
higher up on the opposite side of the
strada. I was first attracted by the fact
that the men were planning the blocks of
fawn-colored stone and readily shaping
them with knives, as if the stone had been
cheese or soap. 1t was, in effect, a kind
of calcareous tufa which is soft when
newly quarried, and gradually hardens on
exposure. 1t was not difficult material
to work in, but the masons set to the task
with that deliberate care not to strain
themselves which I had admired in the
bony-handed laboring men in various
parts of Italy. At intervals of two or three
minutes the stone-cutters - there were
seven of them would suddenly suspend
operations, and without any perceptible.
provocation fall into violent dispute. 1t
looked as If they were coming to blows,
but they were only engaged in amicable
gossip. Perhaps it was question of the
weather, or Of the price of macaroni, or of
that heartless trick which Cattarina played
Giuseppe the night before last "Cospsttol
but she was saucy baggage, that Cat
tarina!" There was something very cheer
full in their chatter, of which I caught only
the eye flashes and the vivacious sou hern
gestures that accompanied it. It was pleas
ant to see them standing there with crossed
legs, in the midst of their honorable toll;
leisurely indulging in graceful banter at
heaven only knows how many francs per
day. At about half past ten o'clock they
abruptly knock off work altogether, q
knew it was coming to that and stretch
ing themselves out comfortably under an
adjacent shed, went to sleep. Presently
person - presumably the foreman - ap-
peared on the scene, and proceeded ener-
getically to kick the seven sleepers, who
rose and went to their tools. After straight
ening out this matter the foreman departed,
and the masons, dropping saw, chisel, and
fore-plane, crawled in under the shed
again. smiled, and glow came over me
as reflected that perhaps I had discovered
the identical branch of the Latin race from
which the American plumber has de-
scended to us. - Aldrich in Atlantic

ROCKY MOUNTAIN LAKES.

"
I have met but very few Californiana
even who have any adequate conception Of
the marvellous abundance Of glacier lakes
hidden away in the Businesses Of our noun
tains. The glaciers and the snow make an
impressive appearance even to the distant
plains, while not single stream is visible,
or q hollow where one might hope for a
lake. Nevertheless, wild rivers are falling
and sounding in every canon, and all their
upper branches are fairly laden with lakes,
like orchard trees with fruit. They nestle
in rocky hooks around the bases of every
Alp in the range, refecting their rugged
beauty over and over again. From the
summit of Red Mountain-a days journey
to the east of Yosemite Valley-no less
than forty-two are displayed within a
radius Of ten miles; and the whole number
in the Sierra can hardly be less than 1900,
exclusive of the smaller gems, which are
innumerable. Perhaps two-thirds or more
of the whole number lie on the western
flank, and all are restricted to the Alpine
and sub-Alpine regions.
Lake Takoe is king of them all, not only
in size, but in the surprising beauty of its
shores and waters. 1t lies embosomed in
lofty mountains near the northern ex-
tremity of the Alpine portion of the range,
between the main axis and spur that puts
out on the east from near the head of the
Carson river. Though twenty-one miles
long by ten wide, and from about 500 to
1000 feet in depth, its basin was filled
during the glacial period from the bottom
to point high above the present water
level with solid ice, which, lavishly fed by
the SHOWS that fell on its mountain foun-
tains, crawled slowly like mighty river
over the northwestern rim of the basin,
crushing and grinding the mountains that
lay in its way, and it was only at the close
of the ice period that this noble lake, at
least in anything like its present form,
came into existence.
Excepting the forests which have sprung
up around its shores, the post-glacial
changes that have taken place are scarcely
appreciable. The sediments carried for
ward by the overiowing streams have
given rise to few square miles Of meadow
land at the head of the lake, and the break
ing through of a moraine dam three miles
down the outlet has lowered the lake con-
siderably, leaving shore benches, and lines
on the rock promontories to mark the
original level. But with these compare.
lively faint expectations, the lake itself and
all its comprising mountains exist to-day
in just about the condition they presented
when first they came to the light, on the
removal of the ice mantle. San francisco

saws the London Week, not by citizen,
but by gentleman who ought to have
been used to the sound of his own voice
the late Lord st. Leonards. While Lord
Chancellor he was dining with city com
pany, and in due course rose to respond to
the toast of his health. Wishing to be
particularly affable, and to show that he
was not "above his company" he began
his speech by remarking, in a stentorian
voice: "Gentlemen, am sprung, like
