How Watch Gases are Made.

In buying a silver watch case great care
should be taken to secure one that is solid
silver throughout. The cap of most cheap
silver cases is made of composition known
as albata, which is a very poor substitute
for silver, as it turns black in short time.
The backs of such cases are made much
thinner than those of an all silver case,
being robbed in order to make the cap
thicker and get in as much as possible Of
the cheap metal. Another important point
in asilver case is the joints or hinges, which
should be made of gold. Those of most
cheap cases are made of silver, which is
not a suitable metal for that purpose. In
brief period it warps, bends and spreads
apart, allowing the backs to become loose
upon the case and admitting the dust and
dirt that accumulate in the pocket. The
Keystone SilverWatch Cases are only made
with silver caps and gold joints.

family circumstances were somewhat

to Mr.. j. NJ. Rix, who published the
Coos Democrat, at Lancaster, n. H.
Tie stage line to Lancaster ran by

A WESTERN FARMER TALKS
ri TO THE POINT. ~

Many centuries ago an old Greek
writer on farming said: IA farmer
should be a seller and not a buyer"
This maxim is as good to-day as it.
ever was. 1t is still the business of
a farmer to produce for sale. Some
things he n ust buy, but as a rule he
will be the worse for it if he departs
from his legitimate business to trench
on that of the dealer by buying to
sell again. In the. regions west of
the Missouri river farmers have to
contend with two special difficulties:
distance from market and want of
capital In any new country the
first products d. are. usually bulky
which aggravates the difficulties of
distance from market. Not long
ago it took the price of two bushels
Of corn to pay. for transporting, one, j;
that is corn sold for, twenty cents,
and it cost forty. cents. to. send a
bushe1 to New 7 ,,rk. The first rem
edy is to condense products before
shipping. A bushel or ffty-six
pounds of corn may be. condensed
into ten pounds of pork, which can
be freighted anywhere for less than
half it would cost to ship the corn.
Grain may be condensed into butter
and cheese by feeding it to cows.
This condensation leads to other in
cidental but important advantages,
notably a diversifying Of products.
The most marked. Improvement in
western farming during the past de-
cade is in this direction But there
is still room for more. Many thous-
and hogs are shipped alive to Chica-
go every year, and their cured meat
is reshipped to the same place to be
retailed. This double expense of
freightage over many hundred miles
is a waste of labor that ought to be
stopped, and would be but for the
scarcity Of capital incident to new
countries. Certainly every farmer
should cure bis own pork. There is
absolutely no good reason why we
should import canned corn from
Maine, tomatoes from Maryland, no
to mention pickles, beans, peas
cheese, crackers, ETC.. These can al
be grown, and prepared here al
eheaply as anywhere. 1t is safe. t.
say that three bushels Of sweet cor
a can be grown in Nebraska for wha
5 it costs to grow one in Maine, an
: perhaps the same may be said of to
: matoes. Some of the idle easter
! capital might be invested here i

you?' said prominant Methodistto the Sun
correspondent in the corridor of the Grand
Pacific Hotel the other day. ''But very few
people know that he came very near being
expelled from the church few years ago for
swearing. Both General and Mrs. Logan
are members of Trinity Church, you know,
and Crafts was the pastor then. He it was
who went to Brooklyn and turned Presbyteri-
an. understand he is preaching to a con-
gregation of that denomination in New York
now. One of Crafts class leaders was, land
still is, leading salesman in Keiths Store,
and about 1879 he prepared charges accusing
Logan of the habitual use of profane Ian
guage and other conduct unbecoming a
Christian. The charges were presented to
Crafts, and he was going to lay them before
the church, when Arthur Edwards found it
out. Edwards, you know, is editor of the
Western Christian AdUocate, and one of the
shrewdest men in Chicago. 1t was on the
eve of political campaign, and Edwards,
who is considerable of politician, saw that
it would not only injure Logan, but damage
the Republican party, and bring the church
into disgrace for allowing the sanctuary to be
polluted with political squabbles. Crafts was
dead set to present the charges for he had
long known of Logan's profanity, but Ed
wards got hold of the documents under a
pretence of correcting some informalities in
them, and made it convenient to be out of
town the day the meeting was held. So the
charges were not presented, and before the
next meeting Edwards had smoothed matters
over so that the case was never tried.''

MarriaJe in France.
Paris Letter.

The aphorism that Sin other countries peo-
nv for money!" is truer of France than it is
of the Emerald Isle. Here marriage is a
business contract. Love may come after the
nuptials, but rarely before them. A rich
merchant bowers his daughter with hundreds
of thousan DIS of francs and marries her to a
make her countess or a marquise, but who
never seeks to know if he has won the young
lady's affections. Noble houses intermarry
in order to keep the ''blue blood'' pure and
intact, the young couple hardly knowing each
other before they are Gas is often the case)
victimized at the altar. The custom of the
country in this regard is the reason why so
many marriages turn out to be unhappy.
Take, for instance, any Frenchman in the
aristocratic or bourgeoisie class. He Is

this country; he has run through wild and

He said it was the practice in factories
where canned goods are put up to take the
cans after they are filed and set them in
boiling water. AS soon as the steam within
the can condensed, thus forming vacuum,
the atmospheric pressure caused the head of
the can to slightly bend in, giving it a con-
cave shape. Sometimes it happened that all
the air did not get expelled, and then the

Washington Correspondent Boston Traveller q
Washington has real English dude. He
is not a shallow imitation, bnt the genuine
article, and has created furore wherever he
has gone. Yesterday I saw him sailing down
Pennsylvania avenue, arrayed in a loud
checkered, tight fitting coat, black trousers
and a hat with brim wide enough for a
Quaker. The most remarkable part of his
costume was his shirt collar. 1t was black,
and at its base nestled tiny white cravat.
As might be imagined the appearance of
this being created thrill of amazement and
the minor and cheap imitation dudes of
American birth were green with envy. The
subject of my sketch interested me some
what, so l madeit my business to make some
inquiries and have since ascertalned that he
is the person who advertises in the local pa
pers here, 'English taught as spoken in
London.n A few silly boys and as many sill
ly girls are doing their best to acquire the
Cockney accent. Foreign gentlemen seem
to be the rage in Washington. Only short
time since the daughter of one of the most
distinguished Democratic Senators said to "a
friend of mine: ''Mr Blank, do so admire
the foreign gentlemen. think they are so
much nicer than those of this country, their
manners are so fascinating" Ny friend
gravely responded to this bit of insufferable
insipidity, 81 beg pardon to differ with you,
but in my judgment a gentleman
is always a gentleman: His
