among all them big fellows, was little
bit o'lad not ten years old-ragged as a
scarecrow, but with bright, curly hair and
bonnie little lace OF his own, if 1t hadn't
been SO woetul thin and pale.
But, bless your soul, TO see the way the
little chap held his head up, and looked
about him you'd la thought the whole ship
belonged 20 him. The mate was a great
hulkin', black-bearded fellow, with look
that would have frightened u horse, and q

About Lace.

In the sixteenth century lace was fa-

in the bill cf costs he sent to the widow of
belinda, at the termination Of his unsuc
cessful suit, makes charge for ''piect
of Flanders lace" to her waiting woman
Swift addressed young lady," in his pc
culiar strain: "And when you are among
yourselves, how naturally after the first
compliments, do you entertain yourselves
with the price and choice of lace, and ap-
ply your hands to each others lappets and
ruftles, as if the whole business of life and
the public concern depended, on the cut of
your pettIcoats. !" Not satisfied with lace
when alive, both men and women craved
for II as a decoration for their grave
clothes. In Malta, Greece, and the lonian
Islands, the practice of burying people Ia
lace acquired an unsavory reputation on
account of the custom of rifling the tombs
and selling the lace-often in filthy con-

mummies in the catacombs of the Capuchln

Northern and Middle Europe this fashion
prevailed for long period. IN the church

American and ItRlIan Bumac.

The quantity OF native sumac, brought
into the market does not exceed about
900 tons yearly, and its market price 10
only 500 per ton, just half the price of the
Italian product. ft5s difference in value
is due TO the fact that the American srmac,
as at present prepared, Is not suitable for
making the finer white feathers used for
gloves and fancy shoes, owing TO its Civ
Ing a dlsagreeable yellow or dirty color.
Ii has recently been shown, however, that
the leaves Of native sumac gathered in
June and July, are equal TO the best for
eIgn leaves. The importance of this dis
covery may be seen by the fact that the
cultivation of the plant may be carried on
most profitably in this country as soon as
manufacturers and dealers recognize the
improvement thus obtaIncd in the domestic
article, and by classifying it according to
its percentage OF tannic acid and lis
relative freedom from colorIng matter, ad-
vance the price of that which is early
picked and carefully treated. In Italy the
sumac Is planted in shoots In the spring in
rows, and is cultivated IN the same way
and to about the same extent as corn. IL
gives crop the second year after setting
out, ant regularly thereafter. The sumac
gathered III this country is taken mostly
from wild plants growing on waste land,
but there Is no reason why it should not be
utilized and cultivated OF land not valuable
for other crops.

DiSciplininR the Cas-.

Grandma Slocum was busy over her
sewing In the warm, quiet mir OF the sit.
ting-room, and grandpa was striving to
convince himself that he was reading the
weekly paLer, despite q vague impression
that he was falling asleep, when both were
brought 10 their feet by sudden crash In
the pantry. ''It's that cat |" said grandpa.
But grandma, who seldom vcntured to ex-
press an opinion before looking into the
question, said nothing aud hastened TO the
scene of the disaster
AS she opened the door OF the pantry
the unfortunate cat darted out, and grand
pa, armed with the broom, started in pur-
suit around the spacious kitchen. The
cat, however, was too nimble for his rather
clumsy movements. and he was obliged to
desist without having accomplished any
thing more than thoroughly frightening the
animal.
"l'il teach the critter I" he exclaimed.
'Forever on shelves and tables Only
yesterday she chawed up the last chicken
you had laid away, and last week SKINNED
half dozen pans of milk What's she
done nowl and pushing open the pantry
door, he beheld his wife gazing sorrowful-
ly down at the fragments OF several plates,
among which lay an old china teapot,
which had belonged TO grandma's mother,
aud was held In great reverence by the
family.
For a moment grandpa stood speechless
with indignation. He was 30 lavish with
his tongue on ordinary occurrences he
could find nothing TO say which could fully
express his mind on this occasion. When
he did speak, it was only TO say, very
quietly
81 wouldn't have taken any money for
that teapot"
Then he turned away, leaving grandma
to gather up the fragments, and went cut
20 the wOod-pile TO vent his feelings in
quick, heavy blows continuing the exer-
else until night.
Meanwhile grandma had examined the
teapot and thought il could be mended. To
be sure, the nose and handle were broken
off, but il they were ingenlously put
tied on again, IL would still he service
able.
So, very carefully, she cemented the
broken pieces together, placed the whole
behind the new stove that the joints might
harden, and returned to her sewing. where
AT length, overcome by the warmth and
quiet, she fell asleep.
AT dusk grandpa came into the kitchen
to sec if supper was about ready. Grand
ms was not in the room. His eye caught
he glimmer of white behind the stove.

The heavy foet struck the object with
terrible force. There was jingIipg crash,
grandma screamed, and the ill-fated tea

pieces.

Professor Hannay recently conceived the
possibility of finding a solvent for carbon.
A gaseous solution nearly always yields
crystalline sohd on withdrawing the sol
vent or lowering its solvent power; 1t was,
therefore, probable that the carbon might
be deposited in the crystalline condition.
Many experiments were made, but they
showed that ordinary carbon, such as char
coal, lampblack, or graphite ls not affect
ed by the most probable solvents that could
be thought Of, for chemical action takes
the place of solution. During some ex-
periments, Professor Hannay noticed q
curious reaction, namely, when gas con-
tainlng carbon and hydrogen 10 heated un-
der pressure IN presence of certain metals,
the hydrogen is attracted by the metal, and
the carbon Is left free. When this takes
place in presence of stable compound
containing nitrogen, the whole being under
a red heat, and under several thousands of
atnospheres of pressure, the carbon is so
acted upon by the nitrogen compound that
it is obtained in the clear, transparent form
of the diamond. The great difficulty hes
in the construction of an inclosing vessel,
strong enough to Withstand the enormous
pressure and high temperature, tubes con-
structed Oh the guu-barrel principle with
wrought-iron coil) of only one half inch
bore, and four inches external diameter,
being torn open in nine cases out of ten.
The carbon obtained i'm the unsuccessful
experiments is as hard as natural diamond,
scratching all other crystals, and 1t does
not affect polarized light. Crystals have
been obtained with curved faces, belong
ing TO the octahedral form. and diamond is
the only substance crystaliSlng In this man.
ner. The crystals burn easily on thln
platinum foil, over a good blow pipe, and
leave no residue, and after two days I'M
mersion in hydrohuoric acid, they show
no sign of dissolving, even when boiled,
On heating a splinter, even in the electric
arc 1t turned black-a very characteristic
reaction of the diamond. Lastly, little
apparatus was constructed for effecting
combustion of the crystals and determining
composition. The ordinary organic analy-
sis method was used, but the diamond
pieces were laid on thin piece of platinum
foil. and this was igni ed by an electric
current, and the combustion conducted in
pure oxygen. The result obtained was
that the sample GA milogrammes) contain
cd 81. Sc per cent, of carbon, very close
approximation, considering the small guam
tlty employed. The announcement that
the long-predicted experiment-aIti1cial
formation of diamond-would be described
at meeting of the Royal Society has oc-
casioned much excitement, but neither
dealers IN diamonds, nor the general pub
lie need disturb themselves. The process
is expensive, tedious, dangerous, and the
diamonds are as yet too sn all to represent
anything beyond scientific value. Cheap
diamonds made by machinery are reserved
for some future generation.

Dust

Instances Of explosions caused by the ig.
milton of carbonaceous dust floating in the
atmosphere have become so numerous that
such dust may be counted among the ex-
plosives. Such explosions are not uncom-
mon in coal mines. An explosion was
caused in Paris in 1869 by the taking fire
of dust rising from sack of starch which
was thrown down stairs and burst. The
fatal explosion which took place in q candy
factory in New York city few years ago
was probably due to the starch dust float
ing In the room. The explosion of the flour
dust inthe Mills at Minneapolis, Mimi, in
1873, 10 another case in point. An explo.
sion of malt dust recently took place IN a
brewery at Burton-on- Trent, England;
finally, it has been suggested that the ex-
plosiou which signalized the breaking out
of the fire on the Seawanhaka was one of
coal dust, such as often takes place in our
stoves.
