Shooting Logs la Nevada.
[Truckee (Nev.) Republican.

A chute is laid from the rivers brink
up the steep mountain to the railroad,
and, while we are telling it, the monster
logs are rushing, laundering, flying
down the declivity. They come with
the speed of a thunderbolt, and some
what of its roar. A track of fire and
smoke follows them-fire struck by their
friction with the chute logs. They de-
scend the one thousand and seven hun
dred feet of the chute in fourteen
seconds. In doing SO they drop seven
hundred feet perpendicularly. They
strike the deep water of the pond with a
report that can be heard a mile distant.
Logs fired from cannon could scarcely
have greater velocity than they have at
the foot of the chute. Their average
velocity is over one hundred feet in a
second, throughout the entire distance,
and at the instant they leap from the
mouth their speed must be fully two
hundred feet per second. A sugar pine
log sometimes weighs ten tons. What
a missile! How the water is dashed into
the air! Like grand plume of diamonds
and rainbows, the feathery spray is
hurled into the air at the height of a
hundred feet. 1t forms the grandest
fountain ever beheld. How the waters
of the pond foam and seethe and lash
against the shore. One log. having spent
its force by its mad plunge into the deer
waters, has foated so as to be at right
angles with the path of the descending
monsters. The mouth of the chute is
perhaps, fifteen feet above the surface
of the water. A huge log hurled from
the chute cleaves the air and alights OF
the floating log. You know how bulle
glances, but can you imagine saw-lol
glancing? The end strikes with heav!
shock, but glides quickly PASTOR shor
distance, then a crash like the reverber
alton of artillery, the falling log spring
one hundred and fifty feet VERTICAL
into the air, and, with a curve like
rocket, falls into the pond seventy yard
from the logit struck.

Selecting Husbands.
baltimore Every Saturday.

1t has been profoundly remarked, that
the true way Of telling toadstool from
a mushroom is to eat it. 1t you die it
was toadstool, if you live it was a
mushroom. A similar method is en-
ployed in the selection of husbands; /;
marry him: if he kills you he was bad
husband; If he makes you happy he is
a good one. There is really no other
criterion. As DR.. Samuel johnson re-
marked, the proof of the pudding is in
the eating thereof. Some young men
that seem exceptionable, indeed very
desirable, when they are single, are
perfectly horrid as soon as they get
married. All the latent brute there is
in the heart comes out as soon as
sensitive and delicate being seeks her
happiness in his companionship. The
honeymoon lasts very short time, the
receptions and the round of parties are
soon over, and then the two sit down to
make home happy. If she has married
a society man, he will soon begin to get
bored: he will yawn and go to sleep on
the sofa. Then he will take his hat and
go down to the club and see the boys,
sho pOlhdpo uOG COluC I'LL
ing. If she has married a man en-
crossed in business he will be tagged
out when he comes home. He may BE-
a sickly man that she must nurse, and
a morose man that she must seek to
cheer, drunken man that she must sit
up for, violent man that she fears,
fool whom she soon learns to despise,
vulgar man for whom she must apollo
gize-in short, there are thousands of
ways of being bad husbands, and very
few ways of being good ones. And the
worst of it is, that the poor silly women
are apt to admire in single men the
very traits that make bad husbands,
and look with contempt or ridicule upon
those quiet virtues which make home
happy. Men with very little personal
beauty or style, often make the wife
happy and sometimes quite the re-
verse. The number of ways of being
a bad husband is almost as great as the
number of ways of being ugly. No one
can tell from the demeanor of a single
man what sort of husband he will be.
Meantime she must marry somebody.
Eat it: if you die it was sort of toad
stool, if you live it was a sort of mush-
room.

MacarOni.

This nutritious and wholesome article
of food is little used in this country.
In Italy, however, its use is universal.
often constituting the principal food, or
taking the place of fish, vegetables, and
the dessert generally in the regular din
ner. 1t is also sold and eaten in the
streets as freely as fruits are with us.
Its uss is extensive in France and Ger
many.
It consists of pure gluten, which ele-
ment constitutes only three and one-half
per cent. of wheat -four, and is wholly
wanting in rye and oatmeal. The
gluten, when wet, is tough, elastic
mass, of yellowish brown color, and is
obtained by dissolving out the starch
and other constituents of the -four with
cold water. The process is as follows:
The -four, having been made up into
a soft dough, is placed on fine sieve,
over vat of water, and is kneaded-in
Italy with the feet-as long as the water,
which falls on it in spray, runs through
| milky. The tenacious nature of the
gluten prevents its passing through.
| Starch is manufactured from the
contents of the vat.
The long, hollow tubes are formed by
pressing the gluten through peculiar
shaped opening in metallic plate; and
this tabular form, so important to it in
cooking, is indispensable to its drying,
as gluten, when moist, rapidly tends to
decomposition.
Counterfeit macaroni is made from
| flour. instead of from its gluten, 1t has
moreover, a starchy appearance; is more
smooth and glossy than the genuine; is
apt to be moldy inside; is not as elias
tic when broken, does not show the
glossy fracture of the former; and ir
cooking becomes pasty, and dees no1
preserve the tubular form. The genuine
also-as the counterfeit does not-swell
up to more than double its origina
thickness.
1t would be gain to our cookery il
macaroni were in more common us,
among US.

A NEwBURG druggist recently won
live turkey at rattle. He took it TO his

flying around the room, broke a number

finally got out of doors and escaped.

Treatment of SMALLPOX in the 0lden
Time.

A curious old custom fingers in some
of the more secluded parts of the coun-
try of placing patient, suffering from
smallpox, in bed with red hangings.
1t would be interesting to know the
origin of this custom, and how long it
has been in vogue. The tradition that
red is good for smallpox is at least five
centuries and a half old, for we read
that John, one of the sons of Edward
II, was treated for the disease by
being put into a bed surrounded by
red hangings, covered with red blank
cts and red counterpane, his throat
being gargled with red mulberry wine,
and the red juice of pomegranates being
given him to suck. This was the boasted
prescription of John of Gaddeaden,
who took no small credit to himself for
bringing hisroyal patient safely through
! the disease.
