The Working Tools Of Insects.

wonder if you know that the small
est insects you see about you have
tools given them to do their work with.
There is a little fly called a saw-tiy, be-
cause it has a saw to work with. 1t is
really very much nicer saw than you
could make, if you were ever so old.
The fly uses it to make places where
the eggs will be safe. What is more
strange, it has sort of homemade
glue, which fastens them where they are
laid. e.. 'laat
Some insects have cutting instruments
that work just as your scissors do. The
poppy-bee is one of them, whose work is
wonderful. The bee has a boring tool.

wood. This borcr cleans out the nest
ready for use. When all is ready the in
sect cuts out pieces of leaves to line the
nest and to make the cells. These lin
ings are cut in the shape of the cells.
You would be surprised to see the care
taken to have every piece of just the
right size, so that it will fit. When they
are fitted, the pieces are nicely fastened
together and put into the nest.-Our

Mystery Of Minerals.

1t is painfully evident to the most adj
| vanced scientists that, in the multitude
of theories, and in the best light that the
slowly accumulated wisdom of centuries
has thrown upon the question, our real
knowledge of the character and forma-
ton of minerals is very limited and UNI
| certain. Wonderful progress has been
made during the last half century in re-
gard to some Of the constituent elements
of the most common metals and the
| methods of fitting them up for utility.
but the great problem of their creation
and union with other primary elements
is still a hidden mystery. Metallurgsts
have discovered something,of the effects
of oxygen, and of hydrogen. gas and its
intimate and almost inseparable, affinity
with iron. but the real facts are hidden
behind veil that never has been pene-
trated. ~ '''4'@'
Iron is generally understood to be
synonym for solidity and enduring per-
manence, yet science now proves that
pure iron is nearly as unstable as water,
and exists only as a curiosity in the lab
oratory. Some chemists claim that
hydrogen is itself a metal, and it may be
yet shown that many Of the so-called
pure metals, now supposed to be simple
elements. are in reality compounds
which science may be able to separate,
perhaps almost into endless divisions.
Alumina has recently come into notice,
and wide field, in view of it's mex
hauStible resources, "opens up and
stretches out beyond our grasp into the
future. BY its discovery our common
clay is to be the mother of mineral
whose usefulness in the future can not
now be measured. -a.,
1t may be found that the great oceans
of air and water are the prolific mines
from which the miners of the future
will draw their supplies of mineral to
satisfy the demand of their day and
generation. 1t is already well proved
that the atmosphere, the water of the
ocean, the planets and comets, contain
a perceptible quantity of mineral mat
ter.
From a general harmony of the mani
fest workings of Nature, it would not
be strange if it should be discovered
that the vast variety of mineral SUBJ
stances now known, and the perhaps
greater variety to be revealed, can be
traced back to a common primal center,
and it will be. shown that the infinite
varieties of form and character are but
different manifestations, under special
circumstances, of the same great force
driven out into modified expression.
Our increasing knowledge of the i'm
ponderable force, electricity, will throw
much Light into the hidden mysteries of
the metallic world, and BY its sun-like
torch we may be enabled to follow with
reyerent steps, from the dim threshold
OF our present knowledge, the foet-
prints OF mineral creation to the cradle
of its existence. Mining Reriew.fot

Cabinet officers, Governor Cleveland and
other distinguished yguests, had special
escorts of police and military. Brooklyn
was one mass of DECORATION and animation.
Throughout the city there appeared to be a
general surrender of business to sightseeing
and celebrating. The main business avenues,
the heights, and many streets clear out into
the suburbs, were- decked most gayly with
flags and bunting and flowers for the bridal

Eggs as Food.

Eggs. at average prices, are among
the cheapest and most nutritious arti-
cles of diet. Like milk, an egg is
complete food in itself, containing
everything necessary for the develop
ment OF perfect animal, as is manifest
from the fact that a chick is formed
from it. 1t seems a mystery how mus
cles, bones, feathers, and everything
that a chicken requires for its perfect
development are made from the yelk
and white Of an egg; but such is the
fact, and it shows how complete food
an egg is. 1t is also easily digeSted, if
not damaged by cooking. Indeed. there
is no more concentrated and nourishing
food than eggs. The albumen, oil and
saline matter are, as in milk, in the
right proportion for sustaining animal
life. Two or three boiled eggs, with
the addition of slice or two of toast,
will make breakfast sufficient for
man. and good enough for king.
According to DR.. Edward Smith, in
his treatise on Food" an egg weigh
ing an ounce and three-quarters con-
tains 12O grains of carbon and Ia
grains of nitrogen, or 1926 per cent. of
carbon and two per cent. of nitrogen.
The value of one pound of egg. as food
for sustaining the active forces of the
body, is to the value of one pound of
lean beef as 1854 to 900. As flesh
producer. one pound of eggs is about
equal TO one pound OF beef.
A hen may be calculated to consume
one bushel of corn yearly. and to lay
ten dozen or fifteen pounds of eggs.
This is equivalent to saying that three
and one-tenth pounds of corn will pro-
duce. when fed to hen. five-sixths of a
pound of eggs; but five-sixths of pound
of pork require about five pounds of
corn for its. production. Taking into
account the nutriment in each and the
comparative prices of the two on an
average, the pork is about three times
as costly. 2 food as the eggs, while it is
certainly less healthful. -Boston Journal
of Chemistry. s--' "

New York and Brooklyn appeared to be
rushing madly toward the bridge or toward
points from which it could be seen.
The burning of fireworks began at eight
O'Clock and continued for an hour, during
which time the heavens seemed ablaze with
bursting rockets and shells. Upon each
tower and from the middle of the bridge
leEfectsEfap afscolored meteors kept shoot
mg up into the Sky, to the amaZemeht and
delight of the tens of thousands of spectators
on house-tops, docks and boats. Brooklyn
was brilliantly illuminated, and the heights,
viewed from the New York, side, seemed
afiame with light. y
At nine o'clock the last rocket shot
heavenward, and, with a tremendous part
ing salute from the steam whistles of the
excursion boats, the crowds turned home
ward. AS far as they were concerned the
celebration was over.
- At~the~ Brooklyn Academy of Music last
night there was another crush at the recep-
ton given to the President and other guests
of Brooklyn's Mayor. There was no hand
shaking, the guests merely bowling their ac-
Acknowledgements. to the salutations. A num-
Der of minor accidents occurred during
the day, but not of a serious character.

Loading the Vaults.

There are 800 tons of silver coin lying
in the large silver vault of the United
States sub-treasury in this city. This
represents total valuation of 1872. $685.
600, of which about So, 0GO, 900, or 620
tons, are in legal tender silver dollars.
This immense deposit of silver coin is
being increased steadily by corporations
and merchants, who take advantage of
their lawful privilege to exchange the
bulk coin that comes into their posses
sion in the course of trade for silver GER
tificates Trade dollars can not be thus
exchanged, the Treasury Department
not recognizing these coins as legal
tender, but simply as bullion. The de-
sire to get rid of silver coin, especially
the heavy dollars, appears to be increas-
ing among business men, and at the rate
they are now pouring it into the SUBJ
treasury they are likely to fill the vaults
completely in a short time. Of the
twelve compartments in the large silver
vault four or five contain as much as
they will hold, and are tightly sealed up.
The silver coin is packed away in stout
cotton bags, 81 900 in each bag, and in
the largest full compartment there is
1S6, o1O, 900 in Bland dollars. In another
compartment there is Sc, 206, 900 in dol
lars. and a tag on the sealed door of a
third compartment informs the visitor
that therein is S3.200,O00 in silver
Z quarters. "a A bag of silver of the value
Of 81 ,O0olweighs fifty-fite pounds. Mr..
Floyd,i the chief clerk infthes sub-treas-
,uv. stated Yesterday that there was an
occasional day when no silver coin WAS
brought there for redemption, but asa
rule they received from $4,000 to S4O,-
900 in silver each day. 'sThe business
men do not seem to want silver re-
marked the old gentleman.
The accumulation of gold at the sub
treasury is also assuming large proper
tons. The amount locked up in the
vaults OF that institution yesterday was
S73,67S, 495. 1t takes S542, 600 of gold
to make ton. The gold is put up in
bags of $1,000 each, and packed away
and sealed in iron compartments, which
are made to hold just 100000. In
one small room in the gold vault, the
reporter was informed, there were S4O,-
100000 of gold coin sealed up. The
great weight of gold and silver in the
sub-treasury rests upon floor of solid
masonry and concrete, between twenty
and thirty feet thick. Many business
men who have more trade dollars than
they know what to do with, take such
coin to the United States Assay-office.
where it is weighed, and its value in
bars is exchanged for it. The silver
bars can be readily sold for legal tender
paper money. Silver trade dollars to
the amount of ST. 900 will bring about
$40 when thus converted into silver
bullion. Its exact price depends upon
the quality of weight and fineness
and upon the market price of silver

THE HOME FAIRY.

There's a funny little fairy
On his rounds by night and day,
And he goes about his errand
In very funny way.
Such tiny wand. so starry,
Bears he IN his tiny hand,
And he visits every mansion,
Every cottage in the land.
Then he looks up in our faces,
With a quaint and quiZzing bye.
When he finds them dark and frOwn1ny,
Off he goes without goodbye,
But if sunny smiles and dimples
Meet his glance, to work he goes,
And before body knows it,
Pop! He jumps astride our nose.
To our ears he creeps and whispers
Many sweet and lovely things.
In our eyes he scatters sunshine
From his pretty diamond wings
Then. he smooths away our wrinkles
With the dazzling wand he bears,
While he sings song, so CHEEKY,
That he lightens all our cares.
Oh. his task is never ended
Till the world in slumber lies!
Even then we dream SO sweetly,
With his sunshine in our eyes.
Has he met you on his journey?
Listen while his name | tell:
He's the merry sprite Good Nature"
And I hope you know him well.

Bank Taxes.
WASHINGTON, D. G,

~ WASHINGTON, ID. C., May a.
The Attorney-General has given an opin-
ion to the Secretary of the Treasury that,
under the provisions of the act approved
March 3, 1888, no tax can be collected on
the capital and deposits National Banks
since the first day of last January, and no
tax on the capital and deposits of State
banks or private banks since the list of las.
December. The Attorney General. says he
is of the opinion that taxes are not assess
able and collectable on the deposits and cap
ital stock of National Banking Associations
for the period between the date of the act
