An OstriCh'S Nest.

After pairing, the ostrich begins to
make his nest. 1t is the male alone
that performs this duty. To do this it
squats upon the ground, and balancing
itself upon its breast bone, it scratches
up the earth with its legs and throws
the sand behind it. When it has dug
out enough on one side to suit it, it
turns around and begins to dig on
another side, and continues this opera
tion until it has made hole large
enough for it to sit in comfortably.
A few days after the nest is finished
the female begins to lay one egg on
every alternate day for eighteen or
twenty days. She then rests for a
while, which time varies from four to
ten days, and then begins to lay more.
A pair of ostriches yield forty eggs,
This is only the minimum number,
which is always reached. 1t is not un-
usual for a well fed, well kept pair to
yield fifty and even sixty eggs, The
eggs are placed 50 as to leave no space
between them. They are sat upon at
first for several hours each day, and
finally altogether The male and the
female brood alternately. At night
the male is always on the nest, as it
possesses greater warmth than the
female. When the birds relieve each
other on the nest the new conner turns
over each egg. in order that the portion
which has lain against the nest shall
receive the warmth of the brooder
These birds perform their duties with
the greatest skill, without any noise or
breakage of the eggs. They squat
down, and with their head and neck
rake up and overturn every one of the
eggs, one after the other, without neg
lecting single one.
The incubation lasts forty-tive days
on an average, sometimes fifty days
but never continues beyond that.
When the chicklings hatch out they
can be heard trying to break the shell
of the egg. Sometimes they succeed in
doing so, but usually the father breaks
the egg under his breast bone, and
seizing with his bill the inside skin,
tears it and frees the chickling. Upon
first reaching the air the chickling re
mains limp and weak. But the warmth
of the parents soon revives it, and a
few hours afterward it begins to run
about the nest, exercising its long legs.
tottling over at each step, recommenc-
ing again its stumbling journey. -Four
days after they are hatched the chick
lings begin to eat. They run after
insects and swallow small pebbles.
The father and mother do not help their
little ones find food.

Needles.

A company has been formed in Uti-
ca for making common or hand-sewing
needles by machinery. The needle
making machine proposed to be used
was invented by Eugene Fontane, the
inventor of the celebrated locomotive
bearing his name, and which has
made the fastest time ever yet made
by locomotive. Mr.. Fontaine is also
the inventor and maker of the most
rapid and best pin-making and pin
sticking machinery ever made. The
needles to supply the world are made
at Ridditch, Birmingham, and at Hath
ersage, Derbyshire, in England, and
AK la Chapel, and its suburb, Bor-
cette, in Germany. Ridditch and Bor-
cette are the principal sources OF sup
ply. At Ridditch about fourteen
thousand persons are engaged in max
h.S needles and the product is estimat-
VI to be about two hundred millions
,er week, or ten thousand millions per
ear. OF these it is estimated that the
cnited States take little More than
Te-tenth.

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.
We never deceive for good purpose.

We never deceive for a good purpose,
Knavery adds malice to falsehood
However things may seem, no evil
thing is success, and no good thing is
failure
Genius is essentially creative, it
bears the character of the individual
who possesses it.
The light of friendship is the light
of phosphorous-seen plainest when
all around is dark.
He is truly great that is little in
himself, and that maketh no account of
any height of honors.
Envy is passion so full of coward
ice and shame that nobody ever had
the confidence to own it.
lie that wrestles with us strength
ems our nerves and sharpens our skill.
Our antagonist is our helper.
Choose always the way that seems
the best, however rough it may be.
Custom will render it easy and agreed
ble.
False friends are like our shadows,
keeping close to us while we walk in
the sunshine, but leaving us the in
stant we walk in the shade.
Humor and pathos -. Twin lakes
which lie side by side in the heart, the
one cleaned of the sunlight, the other
cleaned of the same sunlight's shade.
When you are looking at a picture
you give it the advantage of good
light. BE at least as courteous to your
fellow creatures as you are to picture.
Keep your promise to the letter, be
prompt and exact, and it will save you
much trouble and care through life,
and win you the respect and trust of
your friends.

COlOrs Made by the Human Voice.

The Philadelphia Press, of June 2,
says: An optical demonstration of the
effect of sound on the colors and fig.
ures in soap bubbles was given at the
Franklin institute recently by Prof.
Ioleman. A film of soap was placed
across the end of a phoneidoscope.
To bring sound in direct contact with
the soap tube was used. A reflection
of the film was thrown on a canvas
screen, where it first assumed a blush
gray appearance. An intonation of
the voice, with the lips close to the
mouth of the tube, caused number
of black spots to appear on the rehec-
tion. When these passed away a
beautiful light green, intermingled
with pink. remained. These two ap-
peared to be the principal colors caused
by sound. 1t was noticeable, how
ever, that while a certain tone would
cause the same figure to reappear, it
had no control over the color. A tone
which, for instance, caused one solid
color to appear, would bring out, per-
haps, a dark blue at one time and q
yellow ;;~another. No difference was
noticeable in the effect Of the male
and female voices.

Snakes or Cows.

Two young women, college grad.
uates, and trained to quiet manners,
may be walking in a country wood.
Both know from their reading of ma.
tural history that there exists no ven.
omous serpents in all that region; yet
when little harmless reptile glides
away from before their path, only one
of the young women will retain any self
possession. The other will stand still
and scream with horror, and go home
forthwith, and he unnerved for the
rest of the day, and very likely the one
who is not afraid of the snake will
frantically climb over a fence when
she meets a placid COW in country
lane-BoSton Courier.

George Washington's carriage is now
in a rather dilapidated condition. Iti
much larger than the carriage of the
present day. The front wheels are
very small, while the hind wheels are
unusually large. The body of the
coach is of light cream color, while
the upper part is black. Green blinds
are behind the windows, and old-fash
ioned lamps are on each side of yhe
drivers seat. 1t was built for Gen.
Washington by builder in Philadel
phia named Clarke, and Washington
always rode it out in the height of style
with six cream-colored horses and po
stillions and outriders. When in the
spring of l79l he visited the South
ern states he made the whole journey
1900 miles, in that coach.

Beyond the Mountains.


Beyond the mountains-ah! beyond
How fair in fancy CLEANS
The valley with its spreading fields,
The CLINT of winding streams!
Beyond the purple mountains hight
Stray all our happy dreams.
We sit beneath the moaning pine,
By waves that pass our door;
We say, this scene is fair, and yet
We sigh for something more;
And long to pass with eager feet
The tar-off mountains DER.
AT eve the night bird family sings,
In murmurs sweet and low;
The new moons slender crescent gives
The sky tender glow.
How fair the stars, how warm the wind,
How soft the rivers flow!
But there, where longing fancy flies,
And wRyward hearts still turn,
A defp per music charms the soul,
The red stars brighter burn;
And laughing streams go leaping down
From nooks o'erhung with fern.
When heavy clouds above us roll,
Blue skies are over there;
When storm-wnds fret around our caves,
There zephyrs whisper fair
Beyond the mountains-ah! beyond
Love fills the sunny air.
