giggled Mrs. Spoopendyke; hyster-

eff didn't how'd it get homer" reared
Mr.. Spoopendyke, putting his hands on
his knees and grinning in his wife's
face. "S'pose it hired hack and drove
home? Oh, no! didn't wear it home.
The last saw of it, it had. its hat over
its ear, and female waterproof on its
arm, piking up Alder street as happy
as an Alderman's funeral! What're We
standing there for? Got some indistinct
notion that the dod gasted coat has gone
to get shaved, haven't ye? Who'd ye
leave it to? Been endowing a metaphys-
ical chair'to some kind of an old woman's
home with it, haven't We? Where's the
coat? Develop the coat before l vitiate

kicked his wife's workbasket across the
room and rammed his arm to the shout
der up the chimney.
"Do you remember where you wore it
last?" asked Mrs. Speependyke, sud-
denly becoming calm and analytical.
'Iwore it on my back!" protested Mr..
Spoopendyke, who didn't remember
whether he had taken it to a church or
to hospital. "Maybe, you're under the
impression that 1 tied it to a stick and
wheeled it along on the buttons! On my
back, I tell ye! On this particular
back" and Mr.. Spoopsndyke almost
broke his arm pointing out the attrac-
ton referred to. "Most folks fit up their
rubber overcoats with bent wire
and focus, and wear 'em for spectacles,
but I hadn't time; so / wore it on my
back! Bring forth the coatw yelled Mr..
Spoopendyke, spinning around like a
top. "Fetch out the measly coat before
the proprietor of these premises makes
up his mind whether he'll bnild q new
house here or mortgage the lott"
"You wore it the last day it rained,
and when it cleared off in the afternoon
I noticed that you had on your spring
overcoat," said Mrs. Spoopendyke,
quietly.
"Great headr grunted Mr.. Spoopen-
dyke, beginning to feel uncomfortable,
and wondering how it was coming out.
"With your perceptive faculties and

"And I don't know" continued Mrs.
Spoopendyke, "but I think you had it

Mr.. Spoopendyke growled and snorted
his way to the closet, like foghorn,
and found things as his wife had pre-
dicted.

Glass Staining.

Let us now follow the art of glass;
staining through its chief stages. The
design of the window being determined
upon and the cartoon or full-sized draw
ing being prepared, kind of skeleton
drawing is made showing only the lines
which indicate the shape of each sepas
rate piece of glass. It is apparently not
generally understood that q window is
not one piece Of glass, to which are ap-
piled the various colors are displayed,
but Q number of small pieces which are
united by grooved lead, which incloses
each individual fragment, and that diff
ferent color we see is the color Of that
particular piece of glass, the only paint
ing material used being the dark brown
pigment employed to define the delicate
and minute details. This skeleton. or
working drawing then passes to the
counting room. where sheets OF glass of
every conceivable shape are put in racks,
each bearing . number by which q par
ticular tint is known. The drawing
being numbered on the separate pieces
of glass by means Of frame containing
the glass Of that color; the use Of this
frame renders unnecessary the tedious
process Of visiting each rack in search
Of the particular shade required: the
glass is laid bit by bit ON the drawing,
and each piece 10 then cut to the re-
quired shape by means Of diamond.
After the glass il cut it passes to the
painter, who, laying ii over the drawing,
traces upon it with his brush all the do

a. the action OF the weather and the CON-
tinually varying conditions Of the at-
mosphere would speedily remove the
paint IL left in this state, Il IL necessary
TO subject the painted glass to the action
Of heat by placing il for several hours in
. kiln, under the influence Of which the
paint IL fused into absolute afinity with
the glass and then becomes actually in
corporated with its substance. After
this burning process Il only remains ioe
the different pieces 70 be united with The
grooved laden framework which binds
the whole together. The places who're
the leads join are then carefully soldored
together, and nothing remains but TO
thoroughly work over The whole surface
with thick cement, which nils mp any
interstices betveen the glass and led,
and renders the whole panel perfectly
water-ti8ht and weather-proof.

THE SONG OF THE CAMP.
BY BAYARD TAYLOR.

"Give us songp' the soldier cried,
The outer trenches guarding
When the heated guns of the camps allied
Grew weary of bombarding.
The dark Redan in silent scott,
Law, grim and threatening, under,
And the tawuy mound of the Malakof
No longer belched its thunder.
There was pause. A guardsman said
1--WE storm the forts tomorrow;
Sing while we may, another day
Will bring enough OF SORROW"
They lay along the battery's side,
Below the smoking cannon;
Brave hearts from Severn and from Clyde
And from the banks of Shannon.
They sang of love aud not OF fame,
Forgot was Britan's glcry;
Each heart recalled different name,
But all sang, "Annie Laurie"
Voice after voice caught up the song,
Until its tender passion
Rose like an anthem rich and strong
Their battle eve confession.
Dear girl, her name he dared not speak
But as the song grew louder,
Something upon the soldiers check
Washed off the stains of powder.
Beyond the darkening ocean burned
The bloody sunsets embers,
While the Crimean valleys learned
How English love remembers.
And once again fire of hell
Rained on the Russian quarters,
With scream OF shot and burst OF shell,
And believing of the mortars
And Irish Nora's eyes are dim
For a singer dumb and CORY;
And English Mary mourns for him
Who sang of Annie Laurie"
Sleep, soldier still in honored rest
Your truth and valor wearing;
The bravest are the tenderest-
The loving are the daring.
