Glass Roofing and siding.

s. r. Scientific and Mining Press.
The short-lived nature Of the more CON-
mon materials employed tor roofing purposes
is so patent that any material approximating
greater degree Of perfection, beauty, utility
and durability, must meet with general COM
mendation. Glass has been prepared to
meet this want, and manufactory has been
started to produce il In large quantity. The
manufacturers claim for this roofing not only
superior beauty, but also superiority and
convenience for all purposes over any other
kind Of roofing now In use. Il Is claimed
that this roofing is stronger than slate and
one-hslf lighter. that IL will not disintegaie
or shrink, and that It will not absorb mois-
ture, there being no capillary attraction. The
manufacturers also contend that practical
tests have amply demonstrated that il Is
cooler in summer and warmer In winter than
any other roofing, its corrugated surface re-
fecting and radiating the rays Of heat. It
can be laid on open sheathing or laths, she'd
ding light without exposing objects to view
from within or without, or 1t can be laid on
tight sbeatbing, - may be desired. It can

A woman's study or Husbands.

We hear much about the art Of winning
husband. Let us take step further, and
make study ont Of keeping husband. II
he 10 worth winning, he Is worth keeping.
This is wicked world, and man Is dread
fully mortal. Let US tax, him just rs he Is,
no. As ne ought TO be. In the first place, he
is very weak. The wife must spend the first
two years In discovering oil these weakness
es, count them on her fingers, and learn
them by heart. The fingers Of both hands
will not be too many. Then let her study
up these weaknesses, = mesh for every ono,
and the secret is hers. Is he fond Of good
dinner? Let her tighten the mesh around
him with fragrant coffee, light bread, and good
things generally, and reach his heart through
his stomach. Is he fond Of hattery about
his looks? Let her study the dictionary for
sweet words, If her supply gives out. Does
he like to hear her talk about his brilliant
intellect? Let her pore over the encyclo-
pedia to give variety to The depth Of her ad-
miration. Flattery is good thing TO study
up. At all hazards, In Its delicate shades; but
it must be skillfully done. The barpy who
may try to coax him away, will not do 1t alb
surdly. Is he fond Of beauty? Here's the
rub--let hor be bright and tidy; tina. Is half
the victory. Next, let her bang her hair
(metaphoricaily) and keep up with the times.
A husband who sees his wife look like other
people Is not going to consider her I" broken
down."
A quail is good model for wife--neas
and trim, With pretty, swift way about II,
and just little capricious. Never let your
self become an old story; be just little
uncertain. Another important fact is, don't
be too good; 1t hurts his feelings and be-
comes monotonous. Cultivate q pleasant
voice, 80 that this very mortal man may have
his conscience prick hin when he 10 In jeop-
ardy; It's pleasant ring will haant him much
mere than shrill one. II is ha.d to do all
this besides taking care Of the babies and
looking sfter vexatious household cares ard
smiling when be comes home, but 1t seems
necessary.
At tho same time, GUIDE wife, keep from
trying any Of these things on any other NOR
tal man but yourown. These rules ara only
evolved in order TO I" keep . husband" The
poor weak creature would rather be good
than bad, and Is womans duty to help him
by every means In her power.
