Not long ago a young man in Carson

with his young wife. AS he boarded the

The couple settled in Mariposa county,
and last week the old man went down to
visit them. He proposed bear hunt,
and they were fortunate enough to track
Il grizzly to his lair among some of the
bouders in the chapparel AS the two
approached, the bear reused up and sent
forth a growl of defiance which shook the
trees.

The son held back, further acquan-

"Count me out" he said.
"IIavc | crossed the seas and settled in
America, to raise coward" shouted the
father, brandishing his gun.
'But recollect your advice when

The old man clasped his dutiful son to
his bosom, and us the bear issued forth
exclaimed;
"Speaking of Sally, let us hasten home,
our prolonged absence might cause her
needless alarm"
In about fifteen minutes they had
reached the ranch, the Old man little
ahead, and the distance was about four
miles.

The Choice of q Sadd. e-Hors

The selection Off horse for the saddle is com
mon source of trouble to those wishing to com
mence riding. In the United States, at the pres
ent time there is no lack of horses that, with
careful breaking could be made first class saddle
horses. The racing stables of America furnish
every year number of horses not good enough to
keep in training, yet excellent for park hacks or
light eight hunters. These animals can only be
bought at low rates, and when properly broken are
safer and far more lasting than common-bred
horses Central America possesses breed of
ponies Of beauty and Notwithstanding
household pets for children These little animals
are not always to be found in the United States,
and when here they are costly For larger boys
and girls, the mustang Of the plains ought to be a
favorite mount. Their many good qualities are

lleved by many to be vicious, unruly, and in con
sequence, unsafe for children the contrary, it

New Cooking Utensil.

The ordinary range and cook stove, in which the
tire-box is placed at the side of the oven, or in
which the products of combustion pass over the
top have the disadvantage of an irreguarly heated
oven. The sides and top are hotter than the bot
tom and ends other side, and, as q result the
bread or other food is improperly cooked-per-
haps burned at top while badly done at the bot
tom To correct this defect IN ovens, simple ap-
pance has been devised for causing the air in the
oven to circulate and thus carry the heat obtained
by radiation to all parts of the oven A sheet of
metal, bent into the form of the top and one side
of the oven, is supported on wire standards and
placed in the oven. In the narrow space between
the sheet metal and the hot side and top of the
oven, the air is heated more than in the main body
of the oven, and by expansion it rises and moves
over the top of the oven, toward the cooler walls
The arrangement, simple as it is, appears to be
founded on Il good idea, and is reported to work
we'll in practice. The apparatus examined was
portable, and is designed to be put in the oven by
the cook whenever an even heat is needed [The

Test of Steel IN Shipbuilding.

One OF the largest, in fact the largest
and most powerful steamer in the Aus
tralasian trade is the Rotomhaua. This
vessel belongs to the Union Company of
New Zealand, and was built by Messrs
William Denny & Brothers, Dumbarton.
On New Years day, 1880, whilst engaged
on an excursion trip from Auckland, n,
H., to the Great Barrier Island, she struck
with considerable force on a sunken rock
The marine superintendent at Dunedin,
where the vessel was docked for repairs.
in his official report observed that the
worst Of the damaged plates were taken
out, rerolled and replaced. Many frames
were set back, and a serviceable lob
made OF the repairs in seventy-tWo hours.
"This experience has shown clearly the
immense superiority Of steel over iron.
Theroi is little doubt that had the Rotoma-
haua been of iron such rent would have
been made in her that she would have
filled in a few minutes. 4 number of
frames were set back by the force OF the
blow the bulkhead was bulgef and the
plate was corrugated, and yet there did
not appear one crack anywhere" The
official report from th e manager of the
craving dock contains the following sig
niticant paragraph: "The floors were cut
and the frames thoroughly examined, but
we found no sign of crack or strain in the
material. The frames were heated and
Strengthened and riveted to the floors.
All the riveting was completed, by p.
Nj, on the 10th inst. tmay be here stat
ed that had the frames been constructed
Of iron instead of the splendid ductle
material of which they were composed,
they would have all required to have been
renewed, and even then they would not
have made such a complete job as at pres
ent." The inference is that had the Rot
omahaua not been constructed with steel
manufactured by the exhibitors, every
soul on board would have perished.

An interesting chapter might be writ

grafton, on the theme of ''Nature as

plants whose only means of dissemination
through the medium of alien transp0r-
tatlon, of which design their very CON
formation gives perfect evidence. 9th
ers shake their seeds upon the running
streams, or hurl them in the current with
Jerk, to be washed along and lodged
upon the shingly sand bars. The germs
OF many of our fruits and berries look to
the birds for their future opportunities of
growth while nuts find an abundant
means of distribution in the joint propen-
sites Of boys and squirrels. Others, like
the samaras Of the tulip-tree and elm,
are launched from the tree tops, and tlut-
ter with a will to the furtherest limit of
their strength; while many more, ethereal
and spirit-like, as in the thistle and the
lire weed, are provided with wings as
light as air; they are at home upon the
breeze, and the whole earth is their king

Two Visions.

Where close the curving mountains drew
To clasp the stream IN their embrace,
With every outline, curve, and hue
Reflected in its placid face.
The plowman stopped his team to watch
The train, as swift it thundered by;
Some distant glimpse of life to catch,
He strains his eager, wistful eye.
The morning freshness lies OF him,
Just wakened from his balmy dreams
The travellers, begrimed and dim,
Think longingly of mountain streams.
Oh for the joyous mountain air,
The fresh, delightful autumn day
Among the hills The plowman there
Must have perpetual holiday
And he, as all day long he guides
His steady plow, with patient hand,
Thinks of the flying train that gldes
Into some new, enchanted land.
Where, day BY day, no plodding round
Wearies the frame and dulls the mind
Where life thrills keen to sight and sound
With plows and furrows left behind
Even so, TO each, the untrod WAYS
Of life are touched by fancy's glow,
That ever sheds its brightest rays
Upon the path we do not know

TO reduce the weight of masts of rae
ing yachts, it has been the custom to bore
out the heart of the stick for the whole or
part its length. While ightness is thus
gained, strength has been lost, and to com
pensate forthis loss, a new form of hollow
mast has been recently tried. The stick
was carefully cut into two equal parts,
and then the interior was gouged out in
sections. Spaces were left uncut between
the sections, so that when the two parts
were, put together the stick would be an
exact copy of the interior Of rod Of BAN
boo, the stem of which is hollow, and
REINFORCED at short distances by thick
rings of woody matter that nearly close
the tube made by the stem. This form
of structure is light and yet very nearly
as strong as solid mast The two parts
are fastened together by putting in dow
els at the REINFORCED places. When finish
ed, the mast is smooth on the outside,
