CISTERNS.

r WISH to say for the public benefit that am pre-
L pared to furnish Cisterns of any dimention on
short notice.
They shall be made of good material and will also
furnish Coal Tar at a nominal price. They will be
furnished for eight dollars less than former prices
And do not hesitate to say if properly put in they
are much more durable than Cement Cistern, from
the fact the Cement Cistern is quite liable to
by frost while the pine Cistern is not.

DEMONSTRATIONS.

The mild spell with which January
closes will probably continue we'll into
this month. with the exception of a day or
two, up to the 18th of the month, with
balmy, spring like weather prevailing in
many parts and snow rapidly disappear
ing. A couple ofdays OF clustering weat h.
er, with rain or snow, will be followed by
snow storms and cold weather throughout
Ontario and the Western United States.
This term will be followed about the
10th by storms of wind, rain and snow,
previous to the setting in of colder term.
With the beginning of the last week of
the month brilliantly, mild spring wealth
or will again appear, melting the snow
and rendering sleighing impossible in
some localities.
A few days before the close ofthe month
high winds are likely to prevail, with
gales around New York, Long Island
sound and other points, with blustery
weather in Cana1a and the northern Unit
ed States. The last two days are. howev-
er, likely to be fair and the month will
end with but little snow on the ground.

Water as Puel.

Many efforts have been made to use
waller as fuel, but in most cases the
force gained has been at too great a
cost Of force to render the process
available. The components Of water,
hydrogen and oxygen, when dissociated
are powerful forces The great prob
lem has been to decompose water into
its elements by the use If so little force
as to give great advantage from the
combustion of the components. DIR.
Charles Holland has succeeded in de-
composing water by process so simple
that revolution is promised in motive
power. The decomposition has been
effected by taking advantage Of the
strong affinity Of oxygen for carbon.
Dccomposed water has already been
used in locomotive engine on the
Long Island Railroad. An old coal
burner was employed, but the condi-
tons were not such as TO. give the best
results.
So much confidence was created in
the efficacy of the process that loco
motive is being built at Paterson, N.
j., especially adapted to the use Of the
new fuel. Just inside the furnace door
are four retorts, two TO contain water
and two naptha. Under them is met
al pan. Into this metal pan a small
quantity of naptha is poured and set on
fire when the locomotive is to be started.
The burning naptha raises steam in the
water retorts and converts part of the
naptha in the other retorts into vapor.
The steam rushes into the naptha re-
torts and by the great affinity of the
carbon of naptha vapor for oxygen, %
chemical change occurs and there is
formed light carbonated hydrogen. car
bonic oxide and free hydrogen. This
gas passes from the retorts to feeding
pipes which occupy the place of the u.s.
ual fire CRATES; from these pipes pro-
coed small burners, each with an aper-
ture of hundredth of an inch, and q
thimble-like cap with apertures near
the escaping hydrogen. This arrange
ment brings to the burning hydrogen
oxygen from atmospheric air, produ-
cling nearly the same effect as the oxy-
hydrogen blowpipe. The heat of this
flame is 5000 degrees Centigrade.
Hundred of these burners are scattered
over the space of the ordinary fre-grate.
This heat is applied to the boiler by
means of copper flues.
When the heat from the combustion
of the ASSOCIATED hydrogen becomes
sufficient it does the work Of heating
the retorts to produce itself. This fact
is what puzzles the sticklers for the law
of the conservation of energy. But as
dissertation occurs at temperature Of
400 degrees Centigrade, flame of 5000
degrees Centigrade is sufficient to ac-
complish this with an enormous force
to spare. When steam is raised in the
boiler it is supplied to the naptha re-
tort direct, instead Of being generated
in the retort at first employed, thus saw
ing so much energy. The use of this
fuel does away with smoke and cinders.
The products of combustion passing
through the smoke stack would not
blacken the whitest handkerchief.
The builders OF this locomotive have
the utmost confidence in its success. It
is now nearly completed. and trial
may soon be expected. II the experi-
ment succeeds its Importance cannot
be overestimated. = Rochester Demo-

A Cat Taking To Water.

/ was standing by the banks Of the
Thames at Hallifords waiting for my
boat, which was being gotready by the
boy, when the head boatman came up
to me, saying, did you ever see cat
swim before, sirP" and on my turning
round, / saw large yellow and white
cat swimming about in q narrow strait
of water which divided an island to
which tho boats were moored from the
mainland, and apparently enjoying the
refreshing exercise. This cat, which
| had often before noticed In the fish
punts and boats, found, ON inquiry, is
in the habit of swimming every morn
ing from the mainland to the island,
where it visits the iishing-punts, pick
ing up any unfortunate fish who may
have made his escape ont of the we'll,
and searching for rats which abound on
the island; and he then commits him
self again to the water, and returns
home. The morning after | first saw
him swimming, ! determined to try to
witness it again, and | arrived by the
water-side just in time to see him re-
turn from his morning hunt; he came
to the waters edge. and after having
dipped his front paws into the water,
he launched forth, his legs only being
immersed, while his whole body was
ont of water, his tail being erect in the
air like the mast Of ship.

The Advantage Of Being a Bow.

At the closing of the Railway (N.J)
grammar school, Adolph Jacobs, aged
Is years, composed and read tho fol-
lowing composition on 1.-The Advantage
of Being Boy:
A boy is generally born when he is
very young, and gets to be a man be-
fore his mother, A boy Is not so skit-
fish as a girl. H. takes mouse, which
would scare bis sister half to death,
and ties string to its tail and swings
it over his head. Then he is in his
glory and laughs at his sister, who is
looking for knot-hole to hide in. He
wears no lace bibs or corsets, petticoats
or skirts. A boy possesses ten times
more cheek than girl, but If he ever
does any mischief he own up to 1t with
bright smiling face. Girls are great
deal Of trouble to their parents, who
have to keep them until somebody falls
in love and marries them. Notso with
boyle takes care of horses, works
in the mine and raises cabin. All
that girls do for exercise is to make
dolls, chemises, and crochet work,
while the boy, the spark Of mankind,
is putting up some job TO play on his
teacher, or playing tho glorious game
of baseball. Hurrab! then, for the
boys They are standard bearers OF the

the price of admission to look at Ladies
OF all ages, compilations and temperaments
packed in from the orchestra to the apex of
the gallery; handkerchiefs and fans flutter-
ing through the house without cessation;
sobs audible and tears visible everywhere
and nothing to be heard of the usual hustle
and talk and pickering which generally
drown dramatic performances. The old,
simple pathos Of the domestic drama has
not yet lost its power to open the chamber
of tears, and the woes of "Hazel Kirke,"
the miller's daughter, which brought the
mist to her mothers eyes years and years
ago, awoke quite the same kind Of sym.
pathy in this progressive age of 1881. 1t
has been argued for the last two or three
years that no mild dose of excitement will
move an audience nowadays. But Clara
Morris, the only emotional with all the
magic of initiated death, never sent out into
the daylight of Saturday afternoon such
red eyes as one could have seen on Kerney
street after yesterdays matinee. "Hazel
Kirke," whatever defects it may possess
from purely critical stand point, proves
one. thing clearly, that the public do not
ask for French pruiency if they can get
wholesome American pathos.

afternoon and beautiful song service in
the evening at Z o'clock. At the latter
some very fine vocal and instrumental music
will be rendered.
There will be Sunday school at 0 80 am.
and services at II q. M. and 7 80 p. m in
the Episcopal church to-day; and both SER
vices will be very interesting and impress
siye. The church has been very handsome
ly trimmed with profusionaof evergreens,
mistletoe, etc, for the occasion, and alto
gether the church never before presented
so elegsnt an appearance. Rector Daven-
port will officiate.
