To Cut Glass Without a Diamond.

Carpenters, joiners and cabinet-mak-
ers are frequently called upon to fit
glass to frames or sashes where no glass
has been prepared to suit; under such
circumstances it would be well to know
how to cut glass to answer their pur-
poses, without the aid of a diamond.
Many persons may not be aware that
glass can be cut under water, with great
ease, to almost any shape, by simply
using pair of shears or strong scissors.
In order to insure success, two points
must be attended to-hrst and most i'm
portant, the glass must be kept quite
level in the water while the scissors are
applied; and, secondly, to avoid risk, it
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 required, as if any
attempt is made to cut the glass all at
once to the shape, as We should cut a
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 glasses being the
best for this purpose. The scissors need
not be at all sharp, as their action does
not appear to depend on the state of the
edge presented to the glass. When the
operation goes on well, the glass breaks
away from the scissors in small pieces
in a straight line with the blades. This
method of cutting glass has often been
of service when diamond has not been
at hand, for cutting ovals and segments,
and though the edges are not 80 smooth
as might be desired for some purposes,
yet it will answer in a great many cases.
The two hints given above, if strictly
followed, will always insure success

An Incident of Gettysburg.

A Washington correspondent Of the
Boston Transcript tells this interesting
story of the battle of Gettysburg
General Barlow, of New York, COM
mander of the first division, fell, dan
gerously, and it was thought mortally,
wounded. He was shot directly through
the body. Two of his men attempted
to bear him through that shower of
lead from the field; but one was in
stantly killed, and General Barlow mag
unanimously said to the other, "You
can do me no good; save yourself if
you can" Gordon's brigade of Georgi-
ans, in its wild charge, swept over him,
and he was found by General Gordon
himself, lying with upturned face in the
hot July sun, nearly paralyzed and ap-
parently dying. General Gordon dis
ROunted from his horse, gave him a
drink of water from his canteen, and
inquired OF General Barlow his name
and wishes. General Barlow said, CT
shall live probably but a short time.
Please take from my breast pocket the
packet of my wife's letters and read one
of them to me" which was done. he
then asked that the others be torn up,
as he did not wish them to fall into
other hands. This General Gordon
did, and then asked, "Can I do any
thing else for you, general ?" Yes, :"
replied General Barlow, earnestly.
"My wife is behind our army; can you
send messenger through the lines ?"
Certainly, will, said Gordon, and
he did. Then directing General Barlow
to be borne to the shade of tree at the
rear, he rode on with his command.
The wife received the message and came
harmlessly through both lines of battle
and found her husband, who eventually
recovered.
Since General Gordon's election to
the United States Senate both he and
General Barlow were invited to a din
ner-party in Washington and occupied
opposite seats at the table. After in.
PRODUCTIONS, General Gordon said,
"General Barlow, are you related to the
officer of your name who was killed al
Gettysburg ?" 81 am the man." said
Barlow. "Are you related to the
Gordon who is supposed to have killed
me ?" "I am the man." said Genera
Gordon. The hearty greeting which
followed the touching story as related
to the interested guests by Genera
Barlow, and the thrilling effect upor
the company. can be better imagined
/ than described.

Ice Industry.

1t may not be generally known, but
the capital employed in the ice bust
ness in the United States aggregates
over $25, 900, 600. and the annual sales
reach at least $50, 900, 600. This has
become an important industry, ands in
the past forty years experience in this
business, lately has shown that the
crops of ice for the seasons consumption
C mot always be depended on. And
more than this, when it is considered
that a large outlay must be made for a
considerable period before the season
opens sufficiently to commence its sale,
and the consequent loss by wastage,
naturally makes it's production artificial
ly during the summer months a very
important question, and has engaged
the attention of many inventors. Al
though quite a number of excellent ma
chimes for this purpose have been con-
structed, it must be admitted that no
one has yet succeeded in producing a
machine, simple in its structure, and
cheap enough to make its introduction
universal.
The man who can invent a machine
with these latter requirements will put
himself in the way of making a hand.

Brazilian Indians,

James Lautz, of Norristown, Pa, one
of the survivors of the Collins expedi-
tion to Brazil, thus describes the Indi-
ans of the country: Several of our men
were killed by the Indians. These In
dians are a degraded race, quite small
in stature and go entirely naked. In
the wet season they work at gathering
rubber, which they sell to traders, but
in the dry season there is none TO gath

war on each other. They do not Guilt

but wander about in small bands. Bows

They have no firearms, and are 80 much

camps and they would never harm him.
They are too eowardly to fight white

were to marry Jack. / told you OF your
fathers wish. brought Jack here, the
only cousin you knew and 1 praised
his good qualities - which are fine
enough, can tell you, and appreciated
by young lady not far from here. L
knew that wayward heart of yours, and l
knew that a woman should not marry
without real love, and great store of it,
too. SO 1 left my darling open to the
idea that Jack was to be the lucky fell
low and she did just what I and all
sensible folks expected-almost hated
Jack and her doom. Then 1 took care
that the man you were meant for-who,
my dear, has the best and truest heart
in the world-should come in the way
just at the right time and show an in
terest in you. So have not succeeded
and made my Madge choose her fathers
choice with her own free heart and will I?
AS for Fitzallan, he is all impatience for
tomorrow, and he would have told you
the secret at that ball the other night,
when he says that he was put to a des-
perate trial but he had promised me
never to disclose it till we were quite
sure of success. "Well, are you happy
now, MadgeP"
Ny dear, good second father How
could say when she felt his arms round
her in that moment of fulfilled desires,
and his lips pressed to her forehead in
fatherly affection now that his long
solicitude was at end and his hard task
well done.
That very night Madge, scarcely able
to realize her Joy, was betrothed to
Herbert FItzallan, who, when once the
secret was disclosed, would not wait
another hour.
Have 1 not waited years 2" he said
"All my time abroad 1 was waiting,
and then / came back and found my
Madge more than ever / had dared to
hope"
But Madge in her new freedom did
not forget poor Jack. Indeed, she was
almost in trouble about her unkindness
to him when she heard that he had only
been playing a part, bearing all her
teasing, and being purposely ungracious
whenever she grew kind. But Gertrude
coneoled her effectually on that score
by telling another secret after her kiss
of congratulation.
4" Jack was indeed doing his best to
carry out the plan," she said, "and he
was often grieved about you; but, dear
Madge, you must congratulate us now
not me. but us. Jack and I made it up
between US months ago, and we had
many quiet laugh about you"
So Madge herself accepted the ring
and wore her golden fetters by her own
free will after all; nor was there ever q
happier or more willing captive. AS fol
Fitzallan, il he was not another Arthur,
as the girls fancy had prompted her tc
call him, he was I" blameless" as the
prince of the "Idyls," and far more
blest; and if he reigned over no realm
he was at least king of one brave ano
tender heart-a kingdom wide enough
to satisfy his desires and prize which
time proved to be well worth his years

Alone thou sh nest forth. for who can rise

Tue mountail oaks are seen to fall away,
Mountains themselves by length of days de-

With ebbs and flows in the rough ocean tossed,
In heaven the moon is for a season lost

Or else at eve in radiant glory dressed,

MADGE'S COUSIN.

Madge was sitting upon the hearth
rug, pulling to pieces white camellia
and excusing herself to her kind old
guardian by sayiLg it was "only

"My dear" said Mr.. alwyn, walk

beard in perplexity, Il want Il talk to

fair" And sitting in the easy chair be-
hind her hassock, he drew up ON his
knees the hand that held the broken
flower and proceeded to lecture his un-
manageable charge on the endless sub
ject'of "Jack."
Madge was charming chs rge for any
kind old mans heart to have. No one
could look into her large gray eyes
without seeing the great warm heart,
yet the bright quick glances and the
saucy set of lips showed that Madge
had will of her own and wit and clev-
erness to carry it out.
This lecture on Jack was the same
