An English magazine says The eI-
ceeding dryness OF the atmosphere In
the United States produces such an in
iammability in buildings, that when a
fire breaks out il proceeds with surpris-
ing velocity. Owing TO this clrcum-
stance, Americans have organized the
most perfect system in the worldoi e1tin.
gushing fires, though all their efforts
are often in vain. A stranger in New
York or Boston would be astonIshed at
the immense uproar caused by an out
break Of fire. Bells are rung, gongs
sounded, and steam-engines rush along
the streets, regardless OF everything.
The unaccustomed stranger is apt 10

"store for moment. II is provided
by the city government that =" the Off
GERS and men, with their teams and Ap-
paratus, shall have the right Of way
while going TO fire, through any street,

servedly do the said officers and men
make use of this permission. IL any

the owner must not be surprised if but

YoIcano-MorshIp in Java.

An eve. witness describes volcanowor-
ship in Java as follows The .Sidmdt,
or Sdmdntdn BroDlok, that is, the
blessing or worshipping the volcano, is
ceremony which the Javanese hold
every year. When we reached the place,
everything bore an aspect not unlike
that Of an English fair. Eatables Of all
kinds were displayed upon portable
stands. and gnyly dressed groups we're
parading about There were old men
and women who had come for the last
time 10 paw their respects 10 the shrine,
and they watched with delight the gam
bols OF their grandchildren, Of whom
there seemed 90 be no end, who were
sporting around Everybody seemed
bent on having n good time. Near the
shore Of the sea were placed n score OF
mats, on each OF which knelt young
priest, having before him lot Of myrrh,
aloes and other spices, which are sold
for offerings. At night angles with this
row OF mats was another row, with the
same number Of priests. all kneeling in
Arab fashion, their bodies partly resting
on the calves Of their legs. They were
older than the others, perhaps the
patriArchs oi their respective villages.
Before each Of them were small packets
containing incense, chips OF sandal-wood
and the like and wooden censers. from
which arose clouds OF aromatic perfume.
Behind each priest knelt or squatted an
umbrella bearer. sheltering his reverence
from the sun. Crowds stood close by,
waiting for the consecration OF their
offerings, which consisted mainly OF
fruits, baskets Of rice, poultry, cakes,
strips OF cloth. small coins and the like.
Service at length began. There were
some moments Of prayer, according 10 a
prescribed ritusl. Then the priests
sprinkled consecrated water over the
offerings. After another prayer by the
priests, in which many of the auditors
Joined, the eldest priest rose up, followed
by the others, and shouted Ago! Ago!
Bromok! - Forward Forward 10
Bromok 7 vhereupon the whole mass Of
people made n tremendous rush for the
volcano, the first one who gained the
ridge counting himself favored by for
tune. and certain Of future good luck.
The manifold votive offerings were then
handed 10 the priests. who mumbled a
a few indistinct words over them, and
mitchell them into the crater.

Every one who takes a newspaper
which he in the leastdegree appreciates
will often regret 10 see any one number
which contains some interesting aud i'm
portant articles thrown aside for waste
paper. A good way 10 preserve these is
by the use of a scrap-book. One who
has never been accustomed thus 10 pre-
serve short articles can hardly realize
the pleasure il affords 10 sit down and
turn over the pleasant, familiar pages.
Here a piece OF poetry meets the eye,
which you would long since have lost
hadit not been for your scrap-book; there
is a witty anecdote-it does you good TO
laugh over it yet, although il may be
for the twentieth time; next ia valuable
recipe you had almost forgotten, and
which you found just in time 10 save
much Ferplexity; there is a sweet little
story, the memory Of which has cheered
and encouraged you when almost ready
to despair under the pressure Of life's
cares. Indeed, you can hardly take up
a single paper without reperusing. Then
hoard with care the precious gems, and
see at the end of the year what a rich
treasure you will have accumulated.

Only PracticinR.

Two intimate friends met on the street
the other day, after short separation
and the following curious conversation
ensued:
"Ah, how dye DO, old fellow ?" cried
the first one, heartily.
Second friend (shrugging his shoul-
ders)-" o, tray bang"
First friend docking n little startled)
-" Nice day, is it not ?"
Second do.-"Ah we, say bang
sure"
First do. (doubtfullyI-" You are not
i'll, are you?"
Second do. with indignation) )-" Oh,
nong !"
First do. BE- 'omes uneasy thinking
his friend is mad, he says" Well, good
day, and moves away.
The Second smiles from ear 10 ear,
shrugs his shoulders and replies "Ah,
bung Zure, mong ANNE"
All the day Number One feels ex-
tremely bad about his neighbor's I'M
fortunate condition. and he does not dis
cover the truth of the matter till the
evening, when, as he is reading of the
Paris Exhibition, he suddenly recollects
that his friend is going 10 France and is
studying the language. He was only
practicing French in a preliminary sort
OF way.
Number One smiles as he thinks OF
the fate in store for the unfortunate
natives OF La Belle France.

The bronc'io horses which perform
snch wond, rsui tricks at the New York
Aquarium we're taught wholly by means
otkindness, patience and skill The old
system Of training by fear j. superseded
by more excellent way. The horse in
taught toSfeel that his trainer in his
friend, and will not. hurt him and
though naturally very timsd animal,
kindness wins his confidence, and then,
when he understands what he is desired
10 do, he viii try TO do IL The whip is
used, not as an instrument of torture.
but as a means Of communicating to the
horse the wishes of his keeper. Move
ments and touches of the whip he soon
learns TO understand, and he win watch
for these signals intently. The broncho
horses thus receive their directions for
the tricks they perfsrrn, and obey orders
exactly il there is uniformity in giving
them. The distinctive name Of these
horses comes from the Spanish broRcho
wild horse. They are not considered
more intelligent than common horses,
but are handsomer and more spirited,
and their being perfectly wild il great
advantage for purposes cf training.
