| FEEDING FOR MEAr-The Boston
Journal of Chemistry says that poor
animals consist of abou. two thirds
water, while fat ones are only one-half,
/ in the total weight, and compares poor
animals to bog meadows. 1t adds,
that when the fa.tening process begins
water commences to disappear, and
fat or suet takes its PLACE; and the in
crease in bulk during the process is
largely of adipose matter. 1t is a
curious circumstance that. during the
fattening, the proteids or nitrogenous
compounds, increase only about per
cent, and bone msterials, or inorganic
substance, only per cent.
The cost to a farmer of fattening an
OK is much greater at the close of the
process than at the commencement
that is, increase in bulk or dry weight
at that period is much more costly.
1t costs 3 cents a pound for bulk for
the first month after 4 poor animal IS
put in the tattening stall; it viii cost 5
cents the last month If, then, a far
mer consult his money interests, he
will not carry the increase in fat be-
yond a certain point, provided he can
turn his partially fattened animals to
fair advantage Farmers have. per-
haps, learned this fact from experience
and observation. and hence compara-
lively lean beef abounds in cur markets
While this is of advantage to the
farmer il is verv disadvantageous to
the consumers of the beef, for the flesh
of fat animal in ieveiy case is much
richer in fixed nourishing material than
that of the lean, ana it is never good
economy To purchase lean beef 1t is
better to purchase the poorest part of
fat ANIMAL than the best of a lean
one. The best piece of fat OK (the
loin) contains from twenty one to
twenty eight per cert. more fixed ma
terial than the corresponding part of
lean one; and curiously enough the
worst piece in the lean animal (the
neck) is the richest in nourishing MAJ
terial. The flesh Of the neck improves
very little i'll fattening, hence, economy |
it is khe best portion to |
purchase, as its value in a measure is |
a fixed one.

MUSCULAR POWER IN BEETLES
Nr. Gosse relates the following anec-
dote of three horned beetle. which is
not larger than the ordinary English
stag beetle: This insect has inst
astonlsh~d d me by proof of it's vast
strength OF body. " hen it was first
brought to me, having no box imme
diateiy at hand, | was at loss where
to put it until | could kill it: but a
quart bottle full of milk being on the
table, L clapped the beetle for the
present under that, the hollow at the
bottom allowing him room to stand
upright. Presently, to my surprise.
the bottle began to move slonIv. and
glide along the smooth table. propelled
by the muscular power Of the impris
oned insect, and continued for some
time to perambulate the sun face. to
the astonislment of all who witnessed
1T. The weight of the bottle and its
contents could not have been less than
three pounds and half, while that of
the beetle was about half an ounce. SO
That it readily moved n weight one
hundred and twelve times exceeding
Its own. A better notion than figures
ican convey will be obtained of this
feat by supposiEg lad of fifteen to be
imprisoned under the great bell of St.
Pauls, which weighs twelve thousand
pounds. and 70 move it TO and fro upon

THE BEDS OF ANTIQUITY "a bout
| the earliest data that we have concel n
ing beds are of Egyptian origin. and
thev are very slight. Sir Gardiner
Wilkinson thinks that the Egyptians
usually slept on their day couches,
which were long ana straight, some
times with a back, sometimes with
carving of the heads and feet of animals
at the ends, made of bronze. of slabas-
ter of gold and ivory, of inlaId wood,
and richly cushioned. here these
we're not in use, mats replaced them,
or low pallets made of palm boughs,
with wooden pillow followed out for
the head. What Egypt had, the As
syrian and II rest of the world had
and the Greek, whenever he could,
improved upon other countries no
tions; and the Greek couch, Judging
from the bas reliefs on many vases,
were OF great elegance. The Romans,
although receiving SO many of their
customs and 50 much of their art from
Greece, had very simple beds until
after their Eastern conquests. Indeed
beds which, with their pillows, were
merely hollOws in a sla b of stone, have
been found among Roman remains
But from the period when their AsIatc
dominion increased, the Romans bor-
rowe0 fashions from the conquered.
and they developed a strong taste for
luxury, especially in the matter of
beds Examples OF the Roman form
OF bed were still preserved in the days
of Chariemagne. In the meantime of
course, in the barbaric life of Northe RI
and Western Europe, these forms
generally being lost, it was an advance
in civilization when the bench became
the bed, and people were fastidious
enough at last to feel above sleeping
on bundles of straw OF heaps of skin
upon flags

JAPANESE FANS The qualities Of
native paper now used are not nearly
so good as those of which the old fans
were made, and, in consequence, the
style of manufacture has had to be
changed. Instead of first pasting the
two faces of the fan together and then
running in pointed ribs, the ribs are
square and arc pasted in their places
in the manner described above. The
outside lacquered pieces and the fai CIV
work are all done in Osaka and Kioto,
and so ne of the designs in gold lacquer
on bone are really artistic; but the
demand for the highly ornamcnted
description of fans is not sufficient to
encourage the production of large
quantities of first class work. When
the iasides are dry, the riveting of the
pieces together, including the outer
covering, is rapidly done, and dash
of varnish quickly finishes the fan -
The highest price that was ever given
for fan in the days of seclusion from
tie outer world rarely exceeded a SOW
ereign; but since the arrival OF for
eigners in the country, some few have
Occu W OiNlcl db pa lCCS VARYING
from f2 - f3. The general prices of
ordinary fans range from to 8 shil-
lngs TO f3 per hundred, though an
extraordinarily expensive fan is turned
out at fl0 per hundred. The sale of
fans in olden times seldom exceeded
10000 year for the whole country !;
but in recent years no less than 5000,
600 per annum have been exported
from the ports ofOsaka and Yokohama
alone In concluding these b.ief ffotes
it may be interesting TO mention that
the number of fans ordered in Japan
for the centennial exhibition at Phila-
delphia. reached~tirs lssrSe figure of
500, 900. the estimated cost of which
was 10000, and that these we're over

alluded to before Chambers Journal.
