cotton, or paper fabrics by the follow

spread the mixture on the stuff by
means of a brush. After drying, the
layer is fixed by passing the cloth or
paper through dry steam, in order to
cOagulate the albumen. The stuff or
paper is then passed through a solution
of chloride of tin. The metallic tin is
reduced TO an extremely thin coating
on the zinc. The material thus prepared
is then washed, dried and rolled.

PICKING BERRIES.

Twas in the season of the year
When clustering fruit bedecks the bramble
That gallant Paul and Laura fair
Set out upon pleasant ramble.
They went in search Of berries red,
And Paul seemed somewhat melancholy,
But dainty Laura tossed her head,
With lightsOme laughter blithe and jolly.
At last they reached the destined place
Where brambies grew in wild profusion,
And lOi Pauls melancholy face
Put on look of deep confusion:
But Laura laughed In roguish glec,
With lips that rivaled ripest cherries,
And, while Paul loitered dOubtfuliy,
She calmly went on picking berries
AT last Paul, dawdlin9 at his task,
With face as grave as prebendary's.
Said: Laura, dear, I'd like TO ask
But Laura went on picking berries.
Poor Paul stood sim and twirled his hat
His stammering tongue played queer vaga-
Ties,
Then said: I'D like to tell you that"
But Laura went on picking berries.
Il long have loved you," murmured he,
with love that never, never varies,
''In that case. don't you think" said She,

A Very intellectual Dog.

A lady owns a very intellectual dog,
of which she desired much to have
picture. She accordingly took him to a
photograph gallery and with the assist
ance of the artist endeavored to make
her pet take and keep a suitable position
before the camera. But the spoiled dog
was in an unaccommodating mood that
morning, and after repeated trials the
attempt to conquer him was given up
in dispair. $50 home," the lady said
at last, pointing to the door, ''you are
a bad, naughty, naughty dog" The
culprit changed instantly his saucy
manner, and dropping his tail between
his legs, skunk away in confusion. All
the rest of the day he seemed to realize
that he was in disgrace, crouching in
corners and wearing a shame-faced air
The next morning he was missing, and
all search failed to discover him. About
noon he reappeared, much elated, and
having fastened to his neck an excellent
tin-type of himself. Inquiry disclosed
that when the photographer went down
in the morning the dog was there at the
door of the gallery awaiting admission.
As soon as the door was opened Carlo
ran joyously upstairs and leaped into
the chair on which his mistress had
posed him the day previous. Selling
the situation the artist made his prepa-
rations with all possible speed, and the
result was the delightful picture which
the four-foOted penitent had taken home
as peace-offering to his mistress.-N
