NoN,l Life.Saving Craft.

A novel craft has been invented by
clergyman for the preservation Of life ut
sea. Itis 0 floating vessel in the shape
of an inverted balloon, which Is entirely
covered, the entrance being by man
hole in the upper part, reached from a
platform wholly surrounding the vessel
and from which small iron ladders drop
down to the water. Inside, arranged
around the widest part, are seats and
berths, and under the covered bottom
is space for provisions. Ventilation is
provided for by an ingenious device.
The boat is adapted for shoal or deep
water By a ballast weight which Is
raised or lowered from within. 1t Is
furnished with keel and rudder. Its
peculiar feature is Its method Of motion,
This is automatic. 1t is obtained BY
wave or air wheels attached to shafts
which are connected with small pro-
peller. The principle Of the wheels u
that whatever way the wind blows or
the waves move, the motion il always
In the same direction and under control
Of the rudder. The boat can be made
OF metal. and the size can be regulated
by the needs Of the vessel to which it
belongs. It's proof against fire, always
rides vertical, is easily dropped from
the ship, and can be handled by any one
who Knows how to turn Q crank.

An Easy Death.

DIR. Sam johnson was dear lover OF
tea. and drank it freely. On certain
occasion he chanced TO be taking tea i'll
company where was present wolnan
who not only held the !-sgant herb in
holy horror, hut who believed it 10 be
poison. She sat near the doctor, and
beheld him receive his sixth cup. Sho
had borne it thus far in silence, but
when she saw the good man about To
empty another cup, after having drank

speak, which she did, feelingly and en-
phatically:
"My dear DR.. johnson, do you know
what you are doing9 Doyou know that
you are drinking poisonp II you are
given to that habit, you may be sure it
is killing you"
This burly doctor looked ut her. first
in amaze and then quizzically, with the
waiting cup suspended. With q rev.
erent nod he replied:
Madam, thank you for your con-
Germ In my welfare, but on my account
you need not be alarmed. i have been
many, many years at this work, and If,
as you say, it is killing me, i. must be
an easy death to die. Let me hope that
your exit may be as vigorously health
ful and as calmly placidp

Birds Nests.

Doctor D. G. +. Macdonald writes:
The time of year has arrived when
woods, coppices and hedgerows are
scare ched for birds nests by lynx-eyed
urchins and professionals. Every likely
tree, shrub, bush and tuft of grass is
closely examined, and when a nest Is
discovered it is at once pillaged of eggs
or nestlings with q shou. OF triumph
Surely it is pity that thousands OF eggs
should be taken away TO be "biown,"
and put On string like beads. rendering
them practically valueless. Surely 1t Is
wicked to capture Gedglings that soon
die for want of proper food. Surely II
is cruel to leave their disconsolate
parents to mourn over the cold, deserted
nest, since birds sorrow as keenly, as
deeply and sincerely as any man oi
woman who ever lost children. Poor
little birds! The very sylvan beauty OF
their homes fades before the dimming
away of their grief. No doubt evil il
wrought by want Of thought as well as
want of heart. Allow me, then, to ask
those who desire to protect the eggs and
callow broods OF our pretty little feath.
cred friends to be on the alert and do
all they can to save them. Blackbirds.
thrusa les, finches, larks, linnets and
robins will repay US with notes Of
thankfiilness. They will charm our
ears with grateful and pious songs. Let
US watchfully protect them from the
ruthless hands of the spoiler.

Gathering Salt.

Cheshire has long been noted for its
salt springs, but these are Of mild quail.
ity compared TO the brine springs that
rise in the rock-salt localities. This
natural brine supplies the best salt. u
powerful engine, and conveyed into q
huge cistel. IND from thence into the
pans prepared for it. Under these pans,
when full, fires are kept burning day
enough to take hurried look at the
vast pan in front of US filed with boil
ing biine, on the top Of which the salt
lay in a thick scum, remaining for an
instant on the surface, and then sinking
slowly to the bottom. Standing on 8
raised ledge beside the pan was a
shaggy, foreign-looking MAE, stripped
to the waist, and perspiring at every
pore. who held long. .hapdled rake.
with which he drew to the edge Of the
pan the salt which lay in masses over
the bottom. Having raked together a
considerable quantity of salt, he took
an other tool not unlike giant spade,
perforated with holes, with which lie
lifted the salt from the pan. The quail
ity Of the sal varies according to the
time at which IL drawn or lifted
from the pan. The finest, or what is
called "butbr SALT" is drawn whom
the brine is at boiling point. the pans
being drawn two or three times day.
The courser salt is left much onger at
q lower temperature. being drawn, in
some cases, two or three times week,
and in the case of " fish "or preserving
salt only once or twice in a fortnight.
A morsel Of soap or glue Ia added to
the heated brine to assist in the pun lfy-
ing of the salt. The courser varieties
are never packed in tubs, but loaded
straight from the shed on to the barge,
or fl ied into specially prepared sacks.
The finer salt Is carried into the drying
room, which is kept constantly at
temperature trying TO ordinary human
nature, and here il is formed into neat
blocks and packed for expectation.
This being clean work. much OF the
packing OF fine salt is done by neat tidy
women and girls. The eoarser salt is
carried loose TO the barges ON the river.

6ignor Bellachini, the renovned
prestidigitator. who has recently been
honored BY the German emperor with
the complimentary title of Royal
Court Artist" obtained this unprece-
dented distinction by q somewhat re-
markable feat Of fdexterity. Having OBJ
served that the venerable monarch for
some years past frequently attende d his
performances and exhibited a lively i'm
terest in the magical arts OF which he
is past master, Bellachini conceived
the bold project Of turning imperial
favor to account, and made formal APP
plication to his majesty for an audience.
His petition was granted, and the en-
peror received him at an appointed
hour in the study overlooking the Lin
den aveaue, his favorite room, in which
he transacts business every morning
and afternoon. After chatting for Q
few minutes with the accomplished
conjurer upon subjects connected
with bis profession. William 1. asked.
with q smile: well, Bellachini. and
what is IL you want of meP'' 1T is my
most humble request, sire, that your
majesty would deign to appoint me your
court artist" az will do so, Bellachini,
bot upon one consideration only
namely, that you forthwith perform
some extraordinarily clever trick,
worthy Of the favor you solicit" With
out moments hesitation Bellachini
took up pen from the emperors ink
stand, handed it with a sheet of paper
to his majesty, and requested him TO
write the words: Bellaohini can do
nothing at ALL" The emperor attempted
to comply. but, strange TO say, neither
pen nor ink could be persuaded to fulfill
their functions. Nov, SIRE" said
Bellachini, will your majesty conde-
scend 10 write the words: 'Bellach:ni
is the emperor's court artist"" The
second attempt was as successful as the
first had been the contrary; pen, ink
and paper, delivered from the spell cast
over them by the magician, proved per-
iectly doci.e to the imperial hand, and
Bellachini's ingenious trick was re-
warded on the spot By his nomination
to the desired honoriGc cffice. made out
in the emperor's own writing.

The Cause of Climatic Changes.

The climatic changes which have
taken place during recent years in the
United States Is aScribed by Prof. Tice.
q Western meteorologist, TO the great
physical changes that lave been wrought
by man within the last half century
upon our continent, by covering IL with
a network of railroads and telegraph
poles. The two most notable changes
have occurred in the West. on the lines
of the great railroads. These are tona-
does and an increased rainfull. Prof.
Tice in discussing the first Fart of his
subject points out that electricity is the
cause Of all meteorolog;c phenoDena.
Wind OF every kind, cyclones, cloud
formation, rain, hail and snow-falls. are
all electric phenomena. Speaking OF
the once dry and sterile plains now
made fertile by the more frequent rains,
he says: Wherever cloud drifts, TOR

meath it must be in such condition
that It can obey the electric induction
of the positive cloud upon 1t SO as to

lished between the earth and the cloud.
A dry and sandy soil cannot respond to
The electric induction of clouds. Hence
no clouds drift over them without i'm
mediately dying for want of sustenance.
Railroads and telegraph lines obeying
such induction, instantly bring the
needed electric charge underneath the
