Zylonite.

One of the most remarkable uses to
which paper has been put of late years
is the manufacture of sylonite, a sub
stance which, at the will of the manu-
facturer, may be made in imitation of
horn, rubber, ivory, tortoise shell, am
Der and even glass. The uses to which
Zylonite are adaptable are almost in
finite, but perhaps the most extraordi-
nary is the manufacture of cathedral
windows. The discovery was made by
an Englishman named Spills, about tif-
teen wears ago, but it was only about
five years ago that a company was
formed in London for its manufacture.
Within the last two years a company
has been formed here. The basis of
zylonite is plain white tissue paper,
made from cotton or cotton and linen
rags. The paper being treated first
with bath of sulphurie andother acids,
undergoes a chemical change. The
acid is then carefully washed out and
the paper treated with another prepara-
ton of alcohol and camphor. After
this it assumes an appearance very
much like parchment. 1t is then capa-
BILE of being worked up into plates of
any thickness, rendered almost perfect
y transparent or given any of the brill
liant colors that silk will take. 1t is
much more flexible than either horn or
ivory, and much less brittle. Combs or
other articles made of it in imitation of
tortoise shell are said to be so perfect in
appearance as to deceive the eye of the
most practiced workmen in that SUBJ
stance. The difference in the materials
can be detected only by tests A plain
white tissueapaper also forms the basis
of celluloid, and the treatment in the
early stages of preparation are some-
what similar. The chief difference,
however, between cefsuloid and zylon-
tie is that heformer cennotbe rendered
transparent, and, therefore, cannot like
the latter be made to initiate so many
different substances.

HORSE LORE.-The horse has the smallest
stomach in proportion to his size of any ami.
NAL. Fifteen or sixteen quarts is its utmost
capacity. This space is completely filled by
four quarts of oats and the saliva that goes in.
to the stomach with them. Horses are gener.
ally overfed, and not fed often enough. For a
horse with moderate work, six or eight quarts
Of bruised oats and ten pounds of fine hay is
sufficient. This should be ted in at least three
meals and is better if fed in four. A horses
digestion is very rapid and therefore he gets
hungry sooner than man. When he is hun
CRY he is ineffective and wears out very raL-
idly. Water fills the stomach, lowers the
temperature, and dilutes the gastric juice
therefore horse should not drink immediate
ly before eating. Neither should he be water
ed after eating, because he will drink too
much, and force some of the contents of the
stomach into the larger intestines, which will
cause securing. Securing is also caused by
too rapid eating, which can be prevented by
putting half dozen pebbles half the size of
the fist, into the manger with the oats. Give
only moderate drink of water to a horse.
drink of water, before being driven, will have
quieting effect on nervous horse. A race
horse always runs on an empty stomach.
Digestion progresses moderately during exer-
else, if the exercise is not SO violent as to ex-
haust the powers of the horse.
