lent Society, held the other day, it was
resolved that a committee of four ladies
be appointed to canvass for donations,
and in the course of their perigrinations
this committee yesterday dropped into
Mr.: Wixham's office. He received them
as . gentleman should, and after the
usual formaGties one of them began:
"Mr. Wixham, we are asking aid for
benevolent purposes"
"Ah! yes. Benevolence is q bump
which should be cultivated. Are YOU

The women looked at each other in q
sly way, then at him, and one Of them
said:
1--WE shall be happy for any contribu.
ton" 2
"Yes'm, yes'm. You don't want this
contribution for your own families, eh?'
"No, sir!" answered four voices in a
chorus.
"Well, I am somewhat inclined to
benevolence. Hardly a day passes that
l don't do something for charity. Here's
an old account of $26 against MIR. -.

window. That was her husband, but
Wixbam didn't know it.
"And yesterday found q poor, for
lorn-looking little boy out here crying
with hunger and cold. He said bis

No. Sc -- Street. He hadn't been
washed or combsd for q week, and
felt sad for him. l was going to take
him home and feed him, but be slipped

Another woman suddenly looked out

The thirdtwoman didnt turn red, bul

mercury can be made to take the solid
state under a similar circumstance, and
frozen mercury is so cold that when
held in the hand it will blister it as
though it had been piece of red-hot
iron. The reason why the liqui6ed gas
was not instantly dissipated by the
heat is the same as that which causes
drop of water to dance about on an al
most red-hot plate, bat ~ GROUNDED
by an atmosphere of vapor, upon thin
layer of which it rests. An ingenious
application Of this really wonderful
fact has been long in use in glass works.
The mode of making British plate glass
is to blow cylinder of glass, then cut
it open and spread it out. To make
the cylinder even and symmetrical, the
glass is blown in wooden mold, the
sides of which are wetted with water;
the red-hot glass converts this into
steam, which keeps the glass from
burning the wood, and also from touch
ing the water, which would at once
spoil it, rendering it brittle.
