Onr Pet Birds.

The New York Tribune has an inter.
estlng article on the trade in singing
birds. A single dealer i'll that city inn
ports rs high rs 100000 canaries annu.
ally. They generally come from the
Hartz Mountain region of Germany
A good male singer can be bought for
about $3, while those of extraordinary
vocal powers sometimes bring us high
rs $40. Female birds for breeding pur.
poses sell for 81. Next to the canary
the hooking bird is in demand. Good
singers sell from $25 upwards. When
well trained the bulllinch is highly re-
garded. There is one in Chatham
street valued at $25, which whistles
pretty Polly Perkins" A bulltinch
which can whistle twenty tunes will
bring MS high as $40 Other birds
priced songsters are the gold-fnch,
challnch, nightingale, lark, linaet and
thrush.
Some thirty other birds, not singers,
but priced for their beauty or accom-.
plishments, are found in the New York
market. OF these the parrot is most in
demand. A well-tralned parrot, of
elther me gray African or green Amer
lean varieties. sells all the way from $5C
TO 500. The Australian paroquet and
strawberry finch take the lead Of the
highly-colored birds. The TfiJun,
gives the following statement Of Il
straightforward performer MS to his
method Of training canary birds foI
trick-playing:
"rako young bird and put oil O
bergamot on his bill. twill make him
ms drunk as lord;' then roll him il
your hands until he is familiar witt
your touch. and put him in his cage tc

Making Gold Lace.

One of the most singular mechanical
operations imaginable is the making of
gold wire for what is known rs gold
lace. The rehnei first prepares solid
rod of silver about an inch in thickness;
he beats this rod, applies upon the sur
face u sheet Of gold leaf, Furnishes this
down-and 50 on, until the gold is about
one-hundredth part the thickness Of the
silver. The rod is then subjected 10 u
train Of processes which brings it down
to the state Of fine wire, when it is pass.
ed through holes i'll II steelp plate lessen
ing step 10y step in diameter. The gold
never deserts the silver, but adheres
closely TO il, and shares all its mutations;
it is one hundredth part the thickness
of the silver at the beginning, and it
maintains the same ratio to the end.
As to the thinness TO which the gold
coated rod of silver can he brought, the
limit depends on the dehcacy Of human
skill. II has been calculated, however,
that the gold actually placed on the
very finest silver wire 70. gold lace is not
more than one-third Of one millionth 81
