The Sand Blast,

Among the wonderful and useful inven-
| tiOns OF the times is the common sand blast,
says the Portland argus. Suppose you de
sire to letter piece of marble for a grave
stone, you cover the stone with a sheet of
wax no thicker than 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, a flower or
other emblem, cut the letters, 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. and cover it with fine lace, pass it under
the blast, and not thread of the lace will be
injured, but the sand will cut deep into the
glass whenever it 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 are cut in
glass at small expense. The workmen can
harm, even when it is rapidly cutting away
the hardest glass, iron or stone, but they must
look out for finger nails, for they will be
whitfield off right hastily.
If they put on steel thimbles to protect 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 whites away and destroys any
hard substance, even glass, but does not ef-
feet substances that are soft and yielding like
wax, cotton or fine lace, or even the human
hand

COdllline a Streak Of Lightning.

An American lady writes: At night my
husband comes home with a rush, hangs his
hat upon the floor, throws his coat upon the
first chair, sends his boots flying in another
direction, works his feet into his slippers
while unfolding his paper, reads, eats, reads
again until bedtime, throws his paper down
for some one else to pick up, and rushes off
to bed. This is the programme. with excep-
tions, until Saturday night. Sunday morning
he bolts his breakfast and tears around while
getting into his Sunday best" and rushes
off to church; comes home and bolts his din
ner (never eats, reads little, sleeps little,
and away he goes again. When he tries to
keep quiet he is sure to make the more noise;
if he starts to 60 around mud-puddle he is
sure to step fiat into it; if he crosses the
room carefully he is sure to kick the table
leg or fall over chair; and let him go to a
table where a spare clean cloth has been
spread, and you will see more of decorative
art' in five minutes than you ever dreamed
could be accomplished in so short time. He
is temperate, naturally kind-hearted, attends
strictly to business and pays his debts like a
man was once chatty and domestic, fond OF
his family and home, but has allowed himself
to drift with this rushing, reading habit, until
now nothing could break it up short of break
ing his neck. Fancy wife trying to coddle
such streak of lightning.

The Phenomena Of Storms.

Professor Loomis continues his investiga-
tons of the development and phenomena OF
storms in the United States, in the July
number of the Anaericau Journal Of Science.
In this paper the eleventh one of the series,
it is shown that atmospheric disturbances
during storms do not generally extend more
than mile above the sea-level as they pass
over New England. From observations
made at the sea level, as at Portland, simul-
taneously with the observations at the sum-
NIT of Mt. Washington, it is found that dur
ing the passage of storms the usual system
of circulating wind does not in majority
of instances extend to height OF six thous-
and feet. The more violent the movement.
however, the greater is the height attained
by the disturbance. Another fact OF interest
is that the disturbance on the approach OF q
storm is felt at the surface sooner than at
considerable elevations Professor LOOMS
says that, ''when during the progress OF an
area of low pressure the system OF clrcu!a-
ton wind reaches to the summit OF MT.
Washington, the changes of the wind to the
east quarter usually begins at the surface
station eleven hours sooner than 1t does on
the summit of that mountain" 1t thus ap-
pears that only in the lower portions OF the
atmosphere do the great storm movements
occur, and they are first felt at or near the
earth's surface.

Keep the Cows Healthy.

1t is now generally conceded that milk un-
duly retained in the udder of the cow is alb
sorbed. The flow is decreased, and the ami
NAL gradually goes dry. Once this process
begins, it is next to impossible to bring the
COW back to her regular flow. This is not
so bad however, as to allow the bag to be-
come infamed, and thus poison the milk.
This being the case from any cause, the
milk should never be used. The milk may
not show signs of taint to the eye; it may
even taste well, or so nearly right as to cause
no alarm; and yet it willtaint the entire mess,
and in the end the whole will become little
better than poison made into cheese, since
then the putrefactive process still goes
on. If the cow shows any tenderness or red
ness about the udder, or if it be hard or
swollen, discard the milk until the animal is
again all right. Through this care certain
dairymen are able to get extra and uniform
prices for their butter and cheese, and
especially for the milk sold for family use.
In the end they make the most money, for
consumers and reputable dealers are apt to
be shy of. those who have from time to time
!. old them such milk, or its butter or cheese.

Cutting Glass With Scissors.
ILLUSTRATED WOOdwOrker.]

l1lusCraCcU w OOUWOTkeT.J
Many persons may not be aware that glass
can be cut under water with great ease, to al
most any shape by simply using pair of
shears or strong scissors. In order to insure
success two points must be atteneed to-frst
and most important, the glass must be kept
quite level in the water while the scissors are
applied; and, secondly, to avoid risk, t is
better to begin the cutting by taking off small
pieces at the corners and along the edges,
and so reduce the shape gradually to that re-
quired, as if any attempt to cut the glass all
at once to the shape, as we should cut piece
of cardboard, it will most likely break just
where it is not wanted. Some kinds of glass
cut much better than others, the softer glass
es being the best for this purpose. The scis-
sors need not be at all sharp,as their action
does not appear to depend upon the state of
the edges presented to the glass. When the
operation goes on well the glass breaks away
from the scissors in small pieces in straight
line with the blades. This method of cut
ting glass has often been of service when q
diamond has not been at hand, for cutting
ovals and eegments, and though the edges
are not so smooth as might be desired for
some purposes, yet it will answer in great
many cases. The two hints given above, if
strictly followed, will always insure success.

Charlotte Cushman's Grave.
Boston Letter to Chicago Tribune.

Boston Letter to Chicago Tribune]
Invent to the silent city of Mount Auburn,
where, only mile from the classic shades of
Harvard, slumber q, 900 souls. sought the
resting place of Charlotte Cushman. 1tis de-
lightfully situated in the back part of the
cemetery, at the base of a hill, with grand
view of Boston and the Charles river in the
far distance. The keeper told me that, when
Miss Cushman selected the lot, she said nod
ding her approval of it: 'Here shall lie in
sight of dear old Boston," The lot is very
large one, and in excellent order; but not q
flower, tree or shrub ornaments it. A little
plain marble tablet, three inches thick and
about four feet high, resting on flat free
stone socket bearing simply her name, and
valued about 500, is all there is to mark the
resting place of the tragic queen who left half
million to her next of kin. All me! when
dead how soon we are forgotten! The pro-
fession on which she shed lustre would have
paid better homage to their dead queens
memory.

kAYMOND'S BLINDNESS.
The Practical Joke Played Upon Col. Sci.
Iers by Col. Elevator and Vlrglnius.

John Mccullough, John T. Raymond and
William II. Crane have been making things
lively around Fourteenth street, in New York
Mr.. Crane arrived from Liverpool on Satur-
day. Mccullough and Raymond met him,
and they say the three found themselves on
Monday night in little billiard room near
the Square. They had taken in COney Island,
Brighton Beach, interviewed Corbin, the
JeW-killer, and, returning on the cars, Ray
mond especially distinguished himself as
practical joker. They sat in the billiard hall,
weary and dusty. Conversation tagged, and
Raymond fell sound asleep. Then q diabol-
cal idea entered the minds of Mccullough
and Crane. They would try practical Joke
on John T. Upon one of the billiard tables
half dozen balls were thrown. The gas
was extiDguished, leaving everybody and
everything in darkness. Crane and McCul-
Tough then began to bang the balls about and
shout the score they were piling up.
Bang! from Billy.
"A fine shot!!' shouted Mccullough.
"Twenty-one'
Bang! bang! once more.
''Fine carom. Twenty five" yellel Crane.
Bang! bang bang! This thing went on
a few minutes, when Raymond was heard to
move.
"Where are you, Billy-John-eh? said
he.
"John's just walking away with me-" re-
piled Crane.
Bang again. ''Thirty-fve.'
''But, John-Billy- where are you?" ejac-
ulated Raymond, with agitation in his voice.
Another billiard ball made the circuit of
the table. 1.-TWO more for me" said Crane,
and, turning to Raymond: "What's the mat
ter with you? Why don't you open your
eyes ?"
"But!" from Raymond, becoming nervous,
II can't see YOU"
"Wash your eyes, suggested Mccullough.
Bang again.
''You don't mean to say you're in this bill
lizard room, John?" asked Raymond, his
voice laden with emotion.
''Of course we are,. and playing billiards, y
returned the two jokers simultaneously.
my God" shrieked John. ''McCullough
-Billy-rm blind!"
Mccullough says that the way in which
this exclamation was uttered convinces him
that Raymond is the pathetic actor he has
long claimed to be.

ssFOURTEENTH SIDING.,,
A Little Romance of the Plains of Da.
kOta.

Mr.. R. G. Thwaite, associate editor of the
Madison Journal, has recently made the trip
to Bismarck, which is graphically described
in letters to that paper. The following ro-
nance of the Dakota plains is interesting.
Mr.. Thwaite says:
Yesterday, in coming up the road, I wit.
| messed u scene which to Estates" man
could not but have melancholy, though ro-
mantle aspect. There was a bridal couple
aboard the train. He was pleasant, intelli-
gent-appearing young man, with evidence of
q farm training and a fair education. She
was as fair as Maud Muller, the day the Judge
met her in the tabled field; of evidently far
superior training to her sturdy consort, she
was one of the loveliest and brightest and
gayest brunettes one may meet in years of
long-extended jaunts. She had a bandbox,
evidently containing her summer hat; a
guitar carefully wrapped in an embroidered
bag, of workmanship so exquisite as to
have been her own; music role, shawl
strap encasing two or three of the latest
novels; and all the miscellaneous satchels
and bundles with which the average Young
lady possesses herself on pilgrimage to the
sea shore or on tour to Aunt Betsey's,
among the rural hills.
The brakeman hoarsely called ''Fourteenth
Siding!" There was not building in sight
save the one-roomed 6x10 shanty barracoon
of the switchman, and the eye lost itself try
ing to fathom the dreary beyond. This was
the stopping place for the bride and her groom.
He was taking her to his new home, fifty
miles back on the plains but there was no
one to meet them as expected, and the thread
like trail disappeared over the horizon. five
miles away, with no sign of greeting team. 1t
seemed like dark revelation to the poor girl;
it was the first test of devotion to her hus-
band-and a severe one. On being lifted
down from the car steps, she gazed around
in the utmost dismay; then with a quick, be-
seeching glance into the youLg mans face,
down which sympathetic tears were stream
ing, despite his evidently brave resolution,
the bride of the plains sank into his arms and
sobbed aloud. The scene told its own
melancholy story, and visibly affected the
hundred or more spectators who had crowded
to the platforms, as usual upon all occasions of
leaving passenger on siding Let US hope
that the messengers from that far-away home
finally reached "Fourteenth Siding,' and
that husbands love may soon be an all
sufficient solace for that city-bred bride so
suddenly transported to the treeless wilds of
Dakota.

Hot Water for HemOrrhage

1t is not generally known that, in many
cases, hot water is more efficient remedy than
cold water in checking hemorrhage. In
cases of uterine hemorrhage, after childbirth,
or at other times, it's action is remarkably
prompt. 1t does not check hemorrhage from
large arteries, but is an almost infallible
remedy in cases of capillary oozing, even
when all other remedies fail. 1t should be
remembered, however, that aoarm water will
only encourage the bleeding. The water
must be as hot as the patient can bear. The
action of hot water is to cause contraction of
the small blood-veesels, the effect of its ap-
plication being, in this respect, similar to
that of cold water or ice, but more perma-
nent.-G00d Health.

Find bachelor here past thirty! at least

Bald headed and gray! Well what of that?
1t all can be covered with wig, dye and hat
The weight of my purse will still turn the scale,
And give me choice where young men would fail.

Iron vs.. Steel Rails.

First quality iron rails compare very ia.
yorably with their steel rivals. An iron rail
made at the Philadelphia & Reading Mills in
1870 was in continuous service for nine years,
and, after carrying 81, ,OO0, 900 gross tons of
freight cars and engines, was found to have
been worn at the top of the head only three
sixteenths of an inch. Test pieces from the
head bar of the rail showed tensile strength
of 63. 600 mounds,
