At a recent meeting Of the New York
academy of useful arts, attention was
called to a simple method of iltering
the air of an apartment. The object is
TO free the air from dust, excessive
dampness, and possibly from the germs
of malaria. The contrivance consists
essentially of a fibrous woven fabric,
strengthened by brass wire. 1t is to be
applied to windows and ventilators, and
may be of service on railway cars to
exclude dust. Ithas the merit of check
ing drafts, while admitting air.

To CLEANSE WooDwoRK.-Take a pail
of hot wafer and throw in two table,
spoonfuls of pulverized borax; use a
coarse cloth and wash the paint; do not
use a brush. When washing places
that are extra yellow or are stained,
soap the cloth and sprinkle it with
borax; then rub the places well, using
plenty of rinsing water. By washing
the woodwork in this way you will not
remove the paint, and the borax will
make the hands soft and white.

The ART OF FRYING.-Is to have all
fish, meat and vegetables very dry; the
frying pan well washed in soda and
very dry; then take plenty of fat and
make it boil (f a bit OF bread is thrown
in it will quickly brown; then put in
the articles to be fried. Chops, steak
and calf's liver should be covered with
boiling fat, and turned every two min
utes to keep in the gravy. Kidneys,
first skinned, fried whole in boiling fat
to cover them. In six minutes split
them on a dish, add butter, pepper and
salt.

HUMOROUS.

"P. W.-PoIsoN." - Woman can't
read a boys nature as men can, and
they might as we'll own it up. The
Sibley street mother who yesterday
sent her boy to a drug store with a
bottle and a sealed note, imagined that
she was sharper than the serpent's tooth
when she wrote TO the druggist: "Send
me half a pint of port wine, and write
on the label, 'P. W.-Poison.'" The
druggist followed orders, and when the
boy got outside he tore off the wrapper
and read the label:
"P. W.-Poison," he unused, as he
walked alOng-''wonder what that isY
p. w. doesn't stand for bed bugs, and |
know it, and 4 doesn't mean rats, either.
p. w. can't be hair-dye, nor scalp
wash, and Pm going to touch my tongue
TO It.
He touched. 1t tasted so good that
he took a sip, and meeting three or four
boys just then, the crowd entered a
lumber yard and p. W.'d the contents
of that bottle till only gill was left.
Then one OF the lads ran home after a
dipper of water, filled up the bottle,
and the Sibley street boy trOtted home
wards, whispering:
"P. w. means purity weak, and If she
finds it so she mustn't blame nobody but
the druggist"

ACCORDING to a Paris journal, Doni-
zetti was really the inventor OF the
Ulster. One day, at Paris, he sent for
his tailor to measure him for an over
coat. The tailor found him at the piano
surrendering himself to the rapture of
composition. Nevertheless he was per-
suaded to quit the beloved instrument
and deliver himself up TO the man Of
tape and chalk. The tailor made the
first measurements, then STOPPING, be-
gan to take the length of the garment.
$50 the knee, sir p" he said, timidly.
"Lower, lower" said the composer, in
a dreamy voice. The tailor brought the
measure half way down the leg, and
paused inquiringly. "Lower, lower"
The tailor reached the composers
ankles. "Lower, lower" "But, sir,
you won't be able to walk" "Walk?

quently attacked by disease without any
apparent cause. They may be treated
in the most careful manner in every
respect-in stabling, feeding, grooming
covering, driving. etc. Take the dam
gerous disease of founder. Some horse
men even think it is always owing to
overeating when in a warm state after
severe service, or standing when heated
in a cold rain without cover or over
driving when in this state. But we
have known horses to founder from
none of these causes. We have known
them to be moderately driven on one
day in pure, cool, dry weather, well
blanketed when standing, and returned
to a good stable as lively as when taken
out, eating their evening meal freely,
to be found next morning completely
laid up with founder. Ask the farrier
the cause of it, under these circum-
stances, and he will probably tell you
that they have taken ''cold," by being
driven against or standing in the wind.

Mr.. EdCdrd s. Morse writes from
Toxic, Japan, that he has discovered a
shell heap near Amori, which enables
him to give positive evidence of a pre-
historic race in the island. The deposit
s about 200 feet wide, and varies from |
to 6 feet in thickness. 1t is covered by
earth to a depth of about 3 feet. Asthe
heap is now nearly half a mile from the
bay, the upheaval of the land must have
been very great since the mound was
first formed. In the deposit an i'm
ems quantity of ornate pottery has
been found; but very few bone imple-
emu have as yet been discovered.
There is an entire absence of flint flakes,
and nearly so Of stone implements. No
human bones appear to have been con-
tanned in the deposit. The resemblance
of this shell heap to those of New Eng
| and is very interesting.

WOUNDS BY PUNCTURE. - Wounds
made by a sharp point, as a needle, pin,
thorn, sharp nail, etc., often becomes
very painful and suppurates-sometimes
involving the whole limb.
1t should be universally known that
to pound the part Immediately after the
puncture, giving it several smart taps
with almost any object in reach, will
invariably prevent the subsequent sore
ness and s%upuration. The pain will be
increased by the pounding, for a min
ute or two, but very soon after all
the pain and soreness will disappear.
Trifling as this may seem to some, it
may nevertheless, il needed, prevent a
case of the lock-jaw.

SCIENTIFIC.

Electricity and Capillary AurdcuoH.-
When a glass plate is laid on the surface
Of quicksilver, a considerable force Is
required to separate them. On the
separation being made, IL the substances
be examined by the electroscope, the
glass will be found to be electrified
positively, the mercury negatively.
Their attraction or adhesion is, there
fore, a necessary electrical result. 81
intense Is this electrical development,
that II during the act Of separation the
mercury be In connection with a gold
leaf electrosc )pe, the COLL leaf Is
commonly torn asunder.
In like manner, II some melted sui
phur be poured into a coEical glass and
permitted 10 solidify, on making the
separation the interior of the glass and
the solid sulphur cone will be found TO
be In opposite electrical states. And
the same ccurs when surfaces Of
various kinds are parted from each
other. There ought, therefore, TO be
adhesion.
But IL a glass plate be laid on a sur
face of water, there is no apparent de-
yelopment OF electricity separating
them. And the reason is obvious for
the glass has brought away with 1t a
layer OF water, and there has been no
true separation of the solid from the
liquid, but only Of water from water.
Tue force of adhesion OF the glass to the
has exceeded the cohesion OF the water
for itself.
If a plate Of polished zinc be laid on
mercury, there will, again, be no cleo
trical development apparent on separat-
ing them. For, owing to the conduc-
tibllity of the zinc, there is nothing to
prevent the opposite electricities from
uniting, and all electrical manifestations
must cease.
Whatever can disturb the electrical
relations of a solid an a liquid, will
disturb their capillarity. On wetting
the part inferior ola glass tube, so aS TO
form a temporary tube of water, and
placed some mercury in it, the mercury
will be depressed below the hydrostatic
level. But on connecting the mercury
with the negative pole OF a voltaic bat
terry, and the water with the positive,
the mercury at once rises, their mutual
attraction being increased.

and put a quart of milk into the sauce
pan. Place it on the fire, just bring 1t
to the boil, and move it to the back of
the range. Simmer gently for one hour.
(If the milk curdles it is because it IL
not fresh enough.) When the macaroni
is quite tender, serve it in a hot dish as

poor drunken Jack would be the bar between

be, and Jack, when with this gracious, simple
woman, woke to his old self again.

Horace Greeley's Estate.

The executors of Horace Greeley's
estate made their final settlement with
Surrogate Coffin, of Westchester Coun-
ty, yesterday. The estate consisted large
ly of stocks and bonds that have greatly
deprecated in value, and the executors
have deemed it advisable to distribute
them among the heirs. There are
100000 of such assets, inclusive of
Tribune stock, that was once valued at
100000. 1t seems to have been the
purpose of the executors to convert
only as much of the estate into money
as was necessary for the payment of the
legacies left by Mr.. Greeley to his sis
tiers. Among the assets there are at
least $4,000 of worthless promissory
notes, in addition to the $40, 900 due
