LOSSES BY RELIGIoN.-Near London
there dwelt an old couple. In early life
they had been poor; but the husband be
came a Christian, and God blessed their
Industry, and they were living in q com.
Portable retirement when one dav a
stranger called on them to ask thier
subscription to charity. The old lady
had less religion than her husband, and
still hankered after the Sabbath earnings
and easy shillings which Thomas had
given from regard to the law of God.
So when the visitor asked for their
contributions she interposed and said
Why, sir, we have lost deal by
religion since we first begun, my husband
knows that very well. Have we not,
Ihomas?'
After solemn pause. Thomas an.
swered, Yes. Mary, We have. Before
got religion, Nary, nd au old
81 olched hat, tattered coat, and mended
shoes and stockings; but have lost them
long ago And, Mary, you know that,
poor as | was, had habit of getting
drunk and quarreling with you; and that
YOU know | have lost. And then, | had
hardened conscience and wicked heart,
and ten thousand guilty fears; but all are
lost completely lost, and like milestone
cast into the sea. And, Mary, you have
been loser, too. Before we gol religion,
Mary, you had washing tray, in which
YOU washed for hire; but since then you
have lost YOUR washing tray. And you
had gown and bonnet mnch the worse
for wear; but you have lost them long
ago. And you had many an aching heart
concerning me at times; but these you
happily have lost. And | could even wish
that you had lost as much as have lost
for what we lose for religion will be ever
lasting gain Selected.

MUSICAL COMPOSERS AND THEIR HAB-
Irs.-Havdn, when he sat down to com
pose, always dressed himself with the
utmost care-had his hair nicely powdered
and put on his best suit. Frederick II .
had given him diamond ring, and HAYDN
declared that if be happened to begin
without II be could not summon single
idea. He could write only on the finest
paper. and was as particular in forming
his notes as if be had been engraving
them on copper plate. After all these
minute preparations he began bv choos
ing the theme Of his subject, and fixing
into what keys he wished to modulate it:
and he, as it were. varied the action of
his subject by imagining to himself the
incidents Of some little adventure or ro-
nance.
Gluck, when he felt himself in humor
for composing, had his piano carried into
beautiful field. and thus enivened his
Imagination. Sarti. a man of gloomy
imagination, preferred the solemn still
ness of spacious room, dimly lighted by
a single lamp. Cimarosa delighted in
noisr and mirth. Surroun led by Il party
of friends lie composed his operas. and a.
the ideas presented themselves he seized
and embodied them. Psisiello compose
his Barbierre de Ssviglia - and " La
MOlinara in bed. Sacchini declared that
h-'aever could compose except his Two

GEMS or LIBERAL THoUGHr-Almost
the best rule of life is to be worthy of
ones self
We interest ourselves too much in things
that ought to have no interest for Us.
Il is said that the pen is mighlier than
he sword. Neither is of much value
without the holder.
The weak and Ignorant are apt to mis-
take their superstitious terrors for moral
impressions.
He that sympathizes in all the happi-
ness of others, enjoys the safest happiness :
and he that is warned by all the folly OF
others, has attained the soundest wisdom.
How many useful hints are obtained by
chance, and how often the mind, hurried
by Its own ardor to distant views, neglects
the truths that lie open before il.
Give child its own bent, untrammelle6
by anything warped or conventional. and
he will almost inevitably seek out and
hold fast that which approaches nearest
to nature.
There is pleasure in contemplating
good; there is great pleasure in receiving
good; but the Creates pleasure Of all is
doing good. which comprehends the rest.
As every thread Of gold is valuable, 50
is every minute of time; and as it would
he great folly 10 shoe horses (as the
Roman Emperor Nero did, with gold, so
is it to spend time in lrifes.
Induction being the right path to
knowledge, every man, whether be knows
it or not, uses induction, more or less, by
the mere fact of his having human rea-
son, and knowing anything at all.-Ki1sgs-

How Ice Is MADE.-Everybody knows
that different fluids will boil at different
temperatures. Water bOils at two hun
dred and twelve degrees fahrenheit /;
either at ninety five degrees; suphurous
acid boils al fifteen degrees, or seventeen
degreeg below the point al which water
freezes; while ammonia in liquid form
and under the ordinary pressure of atmos-
phere, will boil at twenty-eight degrees
below zero, or sixty degrees below the
freezing point Of water Ii not only
vaporIzss or boils, as We say, at very
low temperature, but the vapor has an
immense capacity for latent heat. The
keen eye OF modern science had noted
these peculiar characteristics of ammonia
and machinery has been devised to take
advantage of them.
A certain amount of liquid ammonia is
introluc into the machine; and assum.
ing that there is no leakage or breakage.
it will do permanent duty. 1t will start
here, 90 through the apparatus. and come
back, ready TO do duty over again as often
as required. Here it is Il liquid; a little
further on, it flies off into gas then it
condenses into liquid; and again little
further on it becomes a gas, once more it
settles into the liquid starting point,
Now, if the reader will bear in mind that
liquid ammonia on changing into gas
absoros An Immense quantity Of heat, and
Is bound TO have it from somewhere or
other, be will easily understand that Just
at the points in the machinery where the
change takes place, there will be intense
cold. The ammonia, as fast rs it becomes
a gas, must have caloric TO generate, and
1t will suck what it requires out of the
machinery and the surrounding air or
anything else that happens to be near. 1t
Is AT those points in the apparatus where
this process is going on, tina: we find the
icicles hanging and the little patches of
snowy-looking ice and hoar- frost. Just at
these points you may reduce temperature
to almost any degree you please; and if
you want tu cool your brine, all you have

THE OYSTER SEAsoN.-Accordinc to all
tradition, 1t Is now safe to eat oysters For
the past ten or more weeks, thev have
been in spawn. The nucens of the
young oyster is extended to oysters of
mature growth the first three weeks in
June. and during this operation of
spawning the oyster becomes thin and
poor, and SIX or seven weeks are needed
Tor 1t to recuperate and again gain the
condition which fits it for food. The
spawn issues from the oyster as a milky
substance and floats along on the bottom
until it reaches a clear, hard and uneven
surface where it "Sets " and begins tn
grow. The spawn sets on rocks. old
sticks, and anything with the three REQ.
ulsltes spoken of, but on nothing so well
as oyster shells, and the oystermen use
smells exclusively in preparing oyster
ground for the catching of the floating
spawn. The setting does not vary much
from year to year.
Two years are necessary to bring oysters
to maturity The best growing ground
LOT oysters Is where there is soft mud
bottom and clear running stream of
water, Oysters three and four wears old
are larger than those ordinarily sold. but
they seldom live more than four wears
Oysters are sold at prices ranging from so
cents to 81 50 per bushe, the average
price being about IS cents per busbel. The
oysters sold for 80 cents per bushel are
those one year old, which are bought for
transplanting Oysters which have reached
maturity sell for 81 per bushel, and par.
tlcularly large and choice oysters sell for
from Sl.25 to Sl,50 per bushel.
Opened oysters are now transported in
tubs holding from two and one half to
twenty gallons. Tney are transported
short distances in these tubs, and for long
distances are transported in cans. From
bushel of oysters gallon of opened
oysters is obtained.

the danger which readers run of iniuring
their eyesight by the use of bad light.
tie remarks that engravers, watchmakers,
and all others who use the eyes constantly
in their work, take extra care TO preserve
them by getting the best possible light by
day, and using the best artificial light at
night. The great army of readers are
careless, and have, sooner or later, to paw
the penalty of their carelessness by giving
up nigtt-work entirely, and sometimes
reading. except Al short intervals and un-
