Snail Hunting.

have myself been an enthusiastic
snail-hunter in my time, and it ALWAYS
seems to me that there is much to be
said in favor Of the pursuit. Everybody
knows that flowers and butterflies are
beautiful; and when you show them
dead collection they are generally rath-
Ell disappointed with the result A
hortaas siccass after all, however well
managed, is but pale and faded rep
resentative Of the living blossoms in all
their glory. But most people are quite
surprised. when you show them col
lection of English snail shells, to find
that such lovely things are to be picked
up under the stones Of our commons or
among the dead leaves of our copses.
There is some merit in making beau
tiful collection of snail shells. And
though in the old days conchology new
er led to any real good, vet malacology,
which is it's modern successor, has
grown into an Indispensable handmade
Of geology and prehistoric archaeology.
The snail-hunter who begins by gum
ming shells on cards is sure to end by
knowing great deal about the anato-
my and physiology, the geographical
distribution and geological age of the
various species with whose external
skeleton alone he made his first super
fetal acquaintance. Land and fresh
water shells play d most important part
in determining the formations Of ter
tiary or quaternary age; and they give
us valuable hints as to the nature and
date Of the cave deposits or the drift in
which we find the earliest remains OF
half-developed man. In fact, at the
present day it is almost impossible for
anybody to work originally at any OF
the later stages of evolution. human OF
animal, without having served an ap-
premiership at snail-hunting; while
conversely, many a snail-hunter who
first took up shells as mere fancy has
developed with time into q full-blown
working geologist and archaologist.
The snail is not, in the hunting sense
a noble animal, like the stag or. the
buffalo, but the chase after him is :
healthful pursuit, leading one on to tht
open downs and up the heather-clat
hillsides; and in the end it is probabl,
productive of much more genuine
scientific work for humanity than al
the deer hunting or stalking from Elk
moor to Rothiemurchus.- ST

Blank fool as some people think. Here's

dinner. For ten-cent snipe l get a

Tim Gleeson, ex-member Of the Council

The Inventive Faculty Among Farm'

wonderful with what astonishing rapid

The Magnitude OF Our Mechanical In
dustrieS.

The following statistics were given by
Professor Thurston, in his address De-
fore the American Society Of Mechani-
cal Engineers, which recently held its
first annual meeting in New York:
Ninety years ago Samuel Slater start
ed the first successful cotton spinning
mill at Pawtucket, r. I. To-day we
raise ], 800. 100000 pounds Of cotton to
supply the mills in every New England
State and in nearly every other State in
the Union, which manufacture 500,
00O.000 worth OF goods.
From the day in l704, when the first
rude wooIen mill was established at
Newbury, Mass, our wooden manutac-
lures have grown in eXtentand IN excel
lence Of products, until to-day our r.
900 or I5, 5,OOOset5O of machinery, handled
by nearly 10000 Of the most skilled
operatives to be found in the world,
produce $3.50, 000,000 worth Of goods
which, in point Of cheapness and excel
lence, compete with the best work IN
Europe.
We have seen the silk manufacturers,
after struggling with difficulties Of eV-
erv imaginable sort for half a century,
finally secure a fOOthoId and enter upon
q prosperity which is as marvellous % It
is encouraging. The enterprise Of the
Chenevs duringthe past generation, and
the steady persistence Of the Paterson,
Y. j., manufacturers, have borne fruit
in the erection of 80 mills, with pro-
duction Of 330,000,00) worth Of silk
goods, which in strength and durability
excel, and in beauty are fully equat to
the finest products Of its French COM
petitOr at Lyons.
Tn the manufacture Of IRON and steel
the story is the same. We have fur
naces which are supplied with every vari-
ETY. Of the best ores, and are making
100000 tons Of pig iron per month.
The growth of our Bes-emer steel
production is even more marvellous
Twelve years ago this wonderful, Illus
tratiOn of the marvels Of chemical sci
ence was looked upon as merely an IN
terestjng and curious process, Of no i'm
mediate value and Of most uncertain
promise. To-day a single establishment
is making 100, 900 tons a year.
The United States is looked upon as
the home of all ingenious and effective
labor saving devices. Fifty thousand
steam engines and more than an equal
number Of water-wheels turn the ma
chinerv of the hundreds Of thousands
of workshops throughout the country.
