Aunt Susan's Suggestions to Fretfnl
Wife.


"Hester;" exclaimed Aunt Susan,
ceasing her rocking and knitting, and
sitting unpright. Do you know what
your husband will do when you are
dead ?"
"What do you mean p was the start
led reply.
He viii marry the sweetest-tempered
girl he can find"
"Oh, auntie /" Hester began.
"Don't interrupt me until I've fin
ished," said Aunt Susan, leaning back
and taking up her knitting. s'She may
not be as good housekeeper as you are;
in fact, i think not, but sbewi be good
natured. She may not even love hlm as
well as you do, but she will be good-na-
tured.
"Why, auntie-"
That isn't all, !" continued Aunt Su-
san. Every day you live you are MAX
ing your husband more and more in
love with that good-natured woman, who
may take your place some day. After
Mr.. and Mrs. Harrison left you the
other night, the only remark he made
about them was: She is sweet wom-

Things We Outgrou.

1t is both the curse and the blessing
of our American life that we are never
quite content We all expect to go
somewhere before we Idie, and have q
better time when we get there than we
can have at home. The bane of our life
is discomfort. We say we will work SO
long, and then we will enjoy ourselves.
But we find it just as Thackeray has ex-
pressed it. "When was boy" he
said, "I wanted some taffy; it was a
shilling; I hadn't one. When I was
man, 1 had shilling, but I didn't want
any taffy. Robert Collyer.

TREATMENT OF PYRIrEs.-A discoy-
cry, which if successfully developed,
is likely to effect nothing short of a
revolution in the pyrites trade this
country, has recently been made, aud
is presently seriousl, engaging the
attention of chemists both in England
and on the continent Concerning it
the London Mining Journal says: 1t
has long been acknowledged by COM
petent authorities that the method now
followed for the assaying Of pyrites
was not the most satisfactory that
could be wished; but the difficulty
hitherto experienced in dealing with
that ore was to extract the various
metals (gold, silver and copper in "a
manner that would yield profit on
the operation. This is the difficulty
now said to have been overcome. aud
the discoyerer Of the process is d
French scientist of standing. Of
course, the practical results in dealing
with large quantities of ore are yet to
be asccrtained. but the cxperimel is
up to this time made show return of
between ! to / of an ounce of gold
from each ton Of pyrites treated. The
right 10 the patent has been secured
by the Tharsis Sulphur and Copper
Co. (liInited), and the apparatus nee
essary for the proper working of II
out is being erected at the works of
the company. The experiments hith-
erto made have been conducted in
Paris, and there the results are re-
garded as of satisfactory character.
| The company last year dealt with
between 3U0,n00 and 400, 900 tons of
pyritcs, and the calculate ,n is that the
value of the gold extracted by the new
process represents at least 43 per ton;
off that sum, of course, there will fall
TO be deducted very heavy royalties.
