THE GROWTH OF OYSTERS.

Among the results of the years work at
The John Hopkins University the investiga-
tons which have been carried on at the
Chesapeake Geological Laboratory, under
DIR. w. X. Brooks, have been of especial
scientific interest. as well as of great eco
nomical Importance. DIR, Brooks pointed
out four years ago Chat as the growth of an
animal Is limited BY the supply Of the least
abundant Of the necessary ingredients of its
food the supply OF oysters was, in all prob
ability, determined by the amount of carbon
ate of lime available for shell formation.
DR.. Brooks now finds that, by placing the
oyster eggs in a vessel Of water with good
supply Of such shells as decompose readily,
he can hasten the formation Of the shell and
carry the young further in thirty six hours
than they have ever before been carried in
eight days. At the same time the young are
much more healthy and vigorous than those
reared without q supply of lime. This dis
covery of a way to reduce the most critical
period in the life Of an oyster from eight
days to thirty-six hours is of great value.
Afer the shell is formed the young oyster
can be kept alive for several days, but is
gradually starved to death. The only point
which now remains in practical oyster prop
agation from the egg is some method Of sup
plying the young with food This, DIR.
Brooks thinks, requires nothing more than
little patience. The spawning season is now
over, and It is not probable that any further
advances viii be- made in this direction this
year. Ametbod of feeding the young oys-
ter viii propably BE- found out next season
by DR.. Bfgckso Of BY Ldeutenant winslow,

Commission, who Joined the Laboratory

There are thousands OF persons abroad in
the land looking for avenues Of escape for
their money, and an army of handy work
men with wares to sell, will do what they
can to make such outlets numerous and
easy. 1t is an old story, that antique furni-
ture, two or three hundred years old, dated
from any desired landmark in history is
turned out every year in great abundance by
those who are skilled in the business. Old
clocks, old dressers, old bedsteads and old
everything, even IL made yesterday, have
great value in the eyes of many persons sat
isfed with antiquity in appearance. Worm
eaten furniture is now ono of the RACES.
This furniture is easily produced with the
aid of bird shot, which is fired into it. Old
houses torn down furnish worm-caten tim
Der of which this set of furniture used by
Philip of Spain was made. France produces
old Rouen and Sevres ware by the carload.
Limoges enameles are plenty. The new
ones-nearly all are new-are buried in
moist earth for month and then dated
back 800 or 400 years, according to the
wants of the customer. He can be suited as
to age. The famous ware of Henry Ills
time is produced the year round. Treated
with fourhydric acid, it becomes painfully
old in short time. A vase worth ST. has
been known to advance to 81, 800 with the
aid of ten cents worth of acid. In Berlin
pottery used by the Romans the Caesars
Can be had by the crate. At home we
make old coins. Queen Anne furniture and
other kinds of furniture old as the hills. All
these facts, sworn to by many newspapers,
are Low going the rounds for the exclusive
benefit of those who might be robbed other
wise. An exchange says that the New York
manufactures of spurious wares send their
products to the watering places and there
find ready buyers. Regency checks are cast
by the ton every day in Paris, but they are
very scarce and bring fabulous prices.

While gazed in her dreamy eyes,
And far-on look DER her features passed,
Like the twilight OF vesper skies,
While, like one too happy or shy to speak,
With throb could understand,
She turned from my raptures her glowing cheek,
And yelled 1t with faltering hand:
And the gentle tremor which thrilled her frame,
And leaped from her pulse to mine,
To my thirsting soul with its message came,
Like the magic OF cordial wine
AT last she pitied the hopeless smart
OF the passion she long had scorned,
And just as felt she had opened her heart,
She opened her mouth, and-yawnedl

die Sun.
NEW YORK. 1888.


More people have read THE Sun du ing the year
just now passing than ever before since it was
first printed. No other newspaper published on
this side OF the earth has been bought and read in
any year by so many men and women.
We are credibly in formed that people buy, read
and like THE Sun for the following reasons, among
others:
Because its news columns present in attractive
form and with the greatest possible accuracy
whatever has interest for humankind the events
the deeds and misdeeds, the WISDOM the philoso-
ply the notable folly, the solid sense, the i'm
proving nonsense--all the news of the busiest
world at present revolving ia space. f,585
Because people have learned that In its remarks
concerning persons and affairs THE Sun makes
practice of telling them the exact truth TO the
best Of its ability three hundred. and sixty-fvc
days In the year, before election well after,
about the whales as wen as about the small fish,
in the face of dissent plainly and fearlessly as
when supported by general approval. THE Sun
has absolutely no purposes 10 serve, the in
formation of its readers and the fartheranee Of
the common good. .5ss 4a4
Becaese il is everybody's newspaper. No man
is 50 humble that IHE SUN is Indifferent to his
welfare and his rights. No man is rich that IL
can allow injustice to he done him. No man, no
association Of men, is powerful enough to be ex-
empt from the strict application OF Its principles
of right and wrong.
Because in politics it has fought for dozen
years, without int rnssion and Sometimes almost
alone among newspapers, the tight that has results
ed In the recent Overwhelming popular verdict
against Robesonisin and for honest government.
stands and viii continue to stand like rock for
the interests of the people against the ambition
OF bosses. the entertainments of Inonopolists, and
the dishonest schemes of public robbers.
All this is what we told almost daily by
friends. One man holds that THE Sun is the best
religious newspaper ever ever published, because
its Christianity is nndiluted with cant. Another
holds that 1t is the best Republican newspaper
printed, because II has already whipped half OF
the raseals ont OF that party, and Is proceeding
A third believes II TO be the best magazine of
general literature in existence because its readers
miss nothing worthy Of notice that is current in
the world of thought. So every friend of THE
Sun discovers one of its many sides that appeals
with particular force to his individual liking.
II you already know THE Sun, you will observe
that In 1888 tits little better than ever before.
Ii you do not already know THE SUS, you will find
il to be mirror of all human activity, store
house of the choicest products of common sense
and Imagination, inainstay for the cause OF hon.
est government, sentinel for genuine Jefferson
species, and an uncommonly good Investment for
the coming year. ~ 9lf s S8s8
