A physician of Yakutsk tells me that he
believes the reason OF this phenomenon
is to be found in the habits and the
kind of food eaten by the natives, as
we'll as to a certain care taken by them
from childhood up. In the first place
the Yakuts do not touch sugar in any
form, for the simple reason that they
cannot afford to purchase it. Secondly,

the habit of chewing q preparation OF
the resin of the fir tree, a piece of
which, tasting Ike lar, they masticate
after every meal, in order specially to
clean the teeth and gums of PARTICLES of
food that may remain after meals. The
gum or resin is prepared ard sold by all
apothecaries in Siberia, and is much
used by Russian ladies, The fermented
milk is said to be u not very savory
drink. First, the milk is cooked and
then put into o large v~ase-shaped uten-
sill made of frozen cows dung, in which
it is allowed to ferment until the win

for trade. It is twelve miles west OF the
western Nile and between the Mediter-

city grew rapidly, and soon became the
great center Of Eastern commerce.
The Ptolemies succeeded Ale1arde
and under them the city contained
800, 900 free inhabitants and as many

The Night Bsfore the Moving.


Oh, the night before the moving,
When the warm south wind was blowing,
I. was pleasant and sweet to pass
Ankle.deep through flowers and grass
Grass and flowers 30 proudly blowing
On the night before the moving.
But when next my feet went strsying,
Men wore busy with the having;
I saw the sharp scythe swiftly pass
Through nodding howers and blowing grass
Till Blowing grass and flowers were lying
Underneath the hot SIMPLIFYING.
But twas not long ere sweet content
Piled the meadow with wondrous scent;
And flowers and grass, as bleaching hay,
Had learne.i the meaning of the May,
And why they were go proudly blowing
Tn The night before the moving.
Maiden, into woman growing,
Maiden, with the loose hair flowing,
With eyes blue as the skies above,
Face as fair as the rose OF love,
Crowned with youth and joy and beauty,
Thou shalt learn diviner duty.
Of when life has fairest showing
It Is ready for the moving;
Then should trouble, pain or strife
Lay the blade to thy young life,
Do not fear; Oh some sweet morrow
Thou shalt learn the why of sorrow.

Poisoning by Iyy or Sumac.

The effects resulting from coming in
contact with poison ivy or sumac are
quite common among people living on
farms or in the country, and are too
we'll known to need any special de-
scription. Suffice it to say, however.
that many people are quite susceptible
to the poisonous actions Of these
plants and become affected very easily,
and in q manner almost unknown to
them, while others can handle it
without it's producing any lesion. The
action of tie poison first becomes
manifest or is characterized by an
eruption upon the skin, swelling and
an intense itching of the part, and in
very severe cases pain with redness and
congestion. Treatment must he moist
and a~stringent applications, as sulphate
OF zinc or sugar Of lead twenty grains
and one pint OF water mixed and ap-
piled occasionally with a soft cloth; o.
diluted alcohol, spirits Of camphor and
aqua ammonia largely diluted with
water. Each has been tried with good
success, but in my hands where all the
above have failed, a decoction made by
boiling the leaves or buds of the Span
ish needle or neitle IA weed
which is indigenous to all
Northern States) with water and apply
ing it occasionally has proved very sue
cessful, and a decoctiou of witch hazel
made and applied in the same manner

Manufacture OF Steel Pens.

Steel used for making steel pens
reaches the factory in sheets about two
feet long by one foot three inches wide,
and O04 inch thick. They are cut into
bands of different widths, according to
the dimensions of the pen required, the
most usual widths being two, two and
a half and three inches. The bands are
then heated in an iron box and n
nealed, when they are passed on to the
rolls and reduced to the desired thick
ness of the j nished pen. thus being
transformed into ribbons Of great deli
cacy about four feet long. The blanks
are then stamped out from the
ribbons by a punching machine,
the tool of which has the
form of the pen required. The blanks
leave the die at the lower part of the
machine, and fall into a drawer, with
the points already formed. They are
then punched with the small hole,
which terminates the slit, and prevents
it from extending, and afterwa'd kissed
to a cherry.red heat in sheet iron boxes.
The blanks are then curved between
two dies, the concave one fixed and the
convex brought down upon it by mech.
anism. The pens, now finished as re-
CARDS their form, are hardened by being
plunged, hot, into oil, when they are
as brittle IS glass. After cleansing
by being placed in a revolv-
ing barrel with sawdust. they
are tempered in a hollow cylinder of
sheet-iron, which revolves over d coke
fire after the manner of o cofee.roaster.
The cylinder is open al one end. and
while it is being turned a workman
throws in twenty-five sross Of pens at
a time and watches carefully the effect
Of the heat on the color of the pens.
When they assume o fine blue tint, he
pours the pens into q large metal basin,
separating them ore f,om another, to
facilitate the cooling. After this pro-
cess, which requires great skill and ex.
perience, comes the polishing, which

mixture OF fine sand and hydro
chloric acid and made to ~revolve. This
operation lasts twenty-four hours, and
gives the pens a steel. gray tint. The
end of the pen, between the hole and
the point, is then ground with an
emery wheel revolving very rapidly.
There only now remains to split the
pens, which is the most important
operation, being performed by a kind OF
shears. The lower blade is fixed, and
the upper one comes down with a rapid
motion, slightly below the edge of the
fixed blade. To give perfect smooth
ness to the slit, and at the same time
make the pens bright, they are sub
jected to the operation of burnishing
by being placed in a revolving barrel

improvements in Clocks,

The latest Improvements IN horology
have been mainly in the adaptation OF
electricity to the working OF mechanism.
Until quite recently difficulties of va
rious kinds have baf1ed the inventors,
but it seems now that there is prospect
of electrical clocks, clocks wound by
electricity coming into general use.
The French some time ago introduced
the invisible stem winder, Which cbvi-
ated the necessity CT the use OF any
key, upon much the same principle as
the stem winding watches, which are
now universally liked, and by an inge-
NOUS use of electricity o clock is now
made to repeat in the same manner as a
repeater watch by simple pressure upon
a ball attached to the works by On cleo
trio band. Quite recently an inventor
has perfected three methods OF setting
the machinery OF q clock in motion by
means of electricity, which are known
respectively as the papillomone, aste.
roriome and commutator escapement
methods, in each of which electricity is
the motive power, which, acting upon
the pendulum, impels the machinery to
keep in motion as long as the electric
current is supplied. The little batter
les which furnish the electricity
and which send the current through
the coils of the electromagnetic are con,
cealed in q drawer fitting in the base Of
the clock, and are stated to contain
sufficient carbon to last for two years,
during which time the clock will require
no attention and will not stop. If the
inventor is correct in his statements. he
has more nearly discovered the secret OF
perpetual motion than anybody else,
for if a clock can 60 two years without
stopping, who, in these days of gigan-
tic enter rise, will stop short OF
making one that will never
stop? We are at least jnsti-
fed in expecting that will be the next
thing, anu while invention is busy.
what O comfor' it would be if We should
discover that ''noiseless" clocks and
automatic watches wee as possible az
noiseless sewing, machines? Among
other novelties in the line of clocks We
hear of the calendar clock, which keeps
the correct date always in view, regu-
lsrly producing a new n as it passes
the old card out of view, and in con-
nection with it a new case for q clock,
which in obedience to the popular call
for a metamorphoses, ceases to be a
case and becomes O stand Tor the clock
at the earliest possible notice.
