A BEAUTIFUL STORY.


Coleridge relates q story to this ef-
feet i: Alexander during his march in
to Africa, came to q people dwelling
in peaceful huts, who knew neither
war nor conquest. Gold being Offer
ed him, he refused it, saying that his
sole object was to learn the manners
aud customs of the inhabitants. Stay
with u.s." said the chief, ssas long as it
pleaseth thee"
During this interview with the At
rican chief,two of his subjects brought
a case before him for judgment. The
dispute was this: The one had bought
piece of ground, which, after the pur-
chase, was found to contain treasure.
The other refused to receive anything,
stating that he had sold the ground
with what il might be found to con-
tain, apparent or concealed.
Said the chief, looking at the one:
You have SON." aud the other:
=" You have a daughter let them be
married, and the treasure be given
tnem as QOWfy.
Alexander was astOnished.
And what" said the chief, "wOuld
haye been the decision in your coun-
try?"
"We should have dismissed the par.
ties and seized the treasure for the
kings use."
MI hn
country 2. said the chief; 'sdoes tho
rain fall there? Are there any cattle
there which feed on herbs and green
grass ?''
Certainly" said Alexander.
"Ah," said the chief, ait is for tho
sake of those innocent cattle that the
Great Being permits the sun to shine,
the rain to fall and the grass to grow
in your country"
THE SAND BLAST.
Among the wonderful and useful
inventions of the times ia the common
sand blast. Suppose you desire to
letter piece of marble for a grave
stone, you cover the stone with q
sheet of wax no thicker than q wafer,
then cut in the wax the name, date,
etc.. leaving the marble exposed. Now
pass it under the blast, and the wax
will not be injured at all, but the sand
will cut letters deep into the stone.
Or, if you desire raised letters, q
An0op or ofhar am hiov, ont Sho 1ns
ters, flowers, ETC., in wax and stick
them upon the stone; then pass the
stone under the blast and the sand
will cut it away. Remove the wax
and you have the raised letters.
Take piece of French plate glass,
say 2x6 feet, aud cover it with fine
lace, pass it under the blast, and not q
thread of the lace will be injured, but
the sand will cut deep into the glass
wherever 1t is not covered by lace.
Now remove the lace, and you have
every delicate and beautiful figure
raised upon the glass.
In this way beautiful figures of all
kinds are cut in glass at q email OK
pense. The workmen can hold their
hands under the blast without
harm, even when it is rapidly cut
ting away tho hardest glass, iron. or
stone, but they must look out for fin-
ger nails, for they will be whitfield
off right hastily.
If they pat on steel thimbles to pro-
teot the nails it will do little good, for
the sand will soon whittle them away;
but if they wrap piece of soft cotton
around them they are safe. You will
at once see the philosophy of it. The
sand whittles away and destroys any
hard substance, even glass, but does
not affect substances that are soft aud
yielding like wax, cotton or fine lace,
or even tho human hand.-[ Portland

blackbirds see it work they not only
get away as quick as they can. but they
hurry to bring back what they've stol-
en- before!" A well-known public
man in Maine some twenty-five years
ago used to tell this story: He found,
one time, that he had two or three
days to spare, and inquired of the ho-
tel clerk where he could find some
shooting. A countryman stood near
by he said, "you ought to go out on
the Scarborough road about six miles
over the bridge, and you'll find pair
of bars on the left-hand side. Put the
bars up again, because the critters
might get out; then go up the hill,
and that will bring you out right by
the old Squire Risley's barn, and like
enough he'll be around there himself !;
he's most always around. II don't
know Squire Risley." said the stran.
ger, "and don't know his barn froa
any other barn." "Oh," replied the
countryman, "you'l know him the
minute you set eyes on him. Every
body knows him. HELL have on
Nankeen trowsers at this time of the
season of the year. His wife makes
them for him, out of a piece he took
for bad debt. And when you see him
once you know him, for he's pleats all
.over-that's the way his wife makes
them. He's like the morning sun-all
rays"
In Vermont village tall and awk-
wark beau called to see his young lady,
and found her engaged with other
company. To set matters right, he
gave them a riddle. There was two
boys playin' on the sidewalk, and a
man asked them whether they were
