DyoinS I.eathnr.

In the glovo trade tho leather has
hitherto always been dyed Ivy brushing
on the dyes by hand. The defects Of
this method are it's slowness, the oc-
curronce OF large. soiled edges on the
tlcshy side, and, notwithstanding every
care being taking, the unoven Oh aracter
of tho dye produced. To avoid these,
Joseph Kristen, OF Brunn, has pro-
cess in which even dyclng is obtained
by tho application OF centrifugal force.
The skin to be dyed is fixed on tho oen-
ter of n horizontally rotating disk tho
color is also fed on to tho confer, and by
the rapid revolution Of tho disk, is
spread equally over the whole surface.
Tho color is forced on tc tho disk by
means OF IL pump. or it merely flows
from reservoir standingata high level.
The excess of color driven off at the
edges OF tho revolvin3 disk is collected
and used over again, until tho skin is
fully dyed. TO dye ono skin by this
method takes from ten to fifteen minute.
~ single color pump may sorve for ut
least five machines, which would re-
quire only ono attendant, 90 that, by
the above arrangement. ono man could,
in twelve hours, easily dye 100 skins,
possessing great evenness Of dye and
tree from spotting.

Nothing But a Boil.

Now that Hon. Thomas a. Hendricks
has really recovered from his attack Of
so-called "sonile gangrone," a story has
come out which ls decidedly at the OK
pense of his physicians. On the very
day, the tale runs, to which the medical
phrophets in attendance had limited his
life, blunt old graugor---also Il doctor
aftor fashion--called to pay him a fare

the country practitioner thought he
would take look at tho "gangrene"
which waa about to terminate his illus
rious friends life. He did so; stared
at 1t open-mouthed for moment; and
then with derisive grunt and an
indignant, humping oath. roared out:
"Nothing but'a boil" Surely enough,
MIR. Henderieks was very soon rushing
along the high roed TO recovery, and
the able physicians who attended him
are keeping moderately quiet.

Tho NaelstrOm hsIt Is.

Nearly midway IN London strait, q nuge
naked rock, which might fairly be called
an island, lifts itself above tho waters,
brcaslmg the conflicting currents caused by
the winds and tides. Between this rock
and the cape on Muskong ls the famous
Maclstrom, which fertile imagina,ions have
clothed with many terrOrs. Its geograph-
ical pusitlon is suoh 40 to expose it to fierce
tidal currents, and, when they are assisted
by high westerly winds, they are no doubt,
terrific. Tho bottom of the strait Is strewn
with immense bouldcrs which are so ar.
ranged as to give the current spiral mo.
ton, directed toward the isolated rock
from tho northern side, which Is much in
creased in times of high tides or storms,
when it whirls quite around the island
rock. Then it ID that II becomes really
fllcult for boats and vessels without
steam power to keep clear of the rocks
against which the waywarG currents would
dash them. While there are at times vast
and powerful cddics, which giyo objects
floating upon them fearful spiral motion,
there is nothing like a vortex produced by
,subterranean discharge Of the water,
although the tumbling and boiling char.
acter of tho spiral currents may submerge
temporarily objects drifting on the surface.
No doubt III the course of time the action
of the water has tended to lcvc down the
bed OF rocks, some of which, We may
presume, showed themselves above the
surface. his may have made the Mael.
strom much more terrific than it Is now,
and better justified the ancient fable. AS
it ls, in ordinary times and in favorable
weather, the fishermen do not hesitate tc
seek for fares throughout these waters
which to strangers are suggestive of tbt
most terrific dangers.
