A Smart Drummer.

As the train slowed up at a station a
commercial-looking man. who had been
noticed in earnest conversation with
another party of the same general APP
pearance, was heard to remark:
Smart? He's the smartest drummer
You ever met anywhere. He's smart
enough to sell suspenders to dog
The other commercial-looking man
nodded his head at this very happy il
lustration, and everybody thought the
conversation was ended, when a lone
some-looking individual on the opposite
side of the car remarked: 1T doesn't
take a very smart man to sell suspend
ers to dog" Even the sleepy passen-
gers aroused at this startling remark by
The lonesome-looking individual. and
the commercial man asked in some sur
prise: ''Why not?'' because it
doesn't" '.What would dog want
with suspenders?'' ''To keep up his
pants" softly murmured the lonesome
looking individual, gazing across the
snow-swept waste with a far-away look
in his voice. And the astonished brake
man sighed so loud as to crack every
lamp-chimney in the car.-Rocklassa
(Mass.) Courier.

People Who Make Buttons.

According to recently published
statistics, there is village situated
near Paris where from 5000 to 5000
people are employed in making agate
buttons alone, surprising number
when it considered that in the year
1851 there were only 6,93S button
makers, all told, in England, of whom
4, $50 worked in one town. Pearl buttons
come principally from Vienna, and shirt
buttons from Birmingham, while those
made from glass are produced in b.
hernia. America manufactures goods
of this designation valued at from S.
100000 to 100000 per annGm, but
not at such cheap rate as Germany,
viii, h runs France very close with
novelties. In Bohemia, it is said, the
men engaged in the glass-button indus
try earn from Is Sd to Is Id, the women
from I'D to cod, and the children I'd a
day Of our money. American wages
are very much higher, and consequently
many of the kinds imported from
EUROPE could not probably be made in
the United States.-London Daily Tel

tall Feeding Most Profitable.

/ find that the practice still prevails
to some extent among dairymen
here of lessening the feed of their stock
so as barely to pass them through win
ter, depending upon spring feed to get
them into condition, the increased feed
to begin with mich cows after they are
in milk, leaving sheep and young stock
to recruit when turned into pasture.
Will farmers never learnP This seems
to be the case with some. The fall has
been very favorable for stock, but the
worse for those farmers who made even
their milch cows depend for sustenance
upon what could be picked up in the
fields and meadows, the whole range of
the arm being allowed. DO these far
mers not know that a great loss is sus-
tanned in this wayp 1t is the food.
whether obtained from pasture or 9th
erwise, that makes the protit-as import
ant in winter as in summer. Keep the
stock in good condition, whatever the
circumstances or time-especially the
young stock of all kinds-as what is
lost at any period of their growth is lost
for all time. This very important point
is yet far from being universally known.
To have young stock stand still Cor
nearly SOL in growth during winter,
which is half of the year, is to get only
half, or nearly so, their natural growth;
hence the many puny animals we find.
1t is sad to see this among horses.
Sheep also suffer, both in the amount
and quality of the wool and in the size
of the animal. The latter especially
applies to the hog. Does it not matter
whether the spring pig when fattened
weighs 800 pounds, or only 200? With
mich cows there may not be so much
loss from lack of growth, as a small COW
may be very good dairy COW. The
difficulty here is that when fed sparing-
ly during late fall and early winter the
milk is materially lessened and the
quality not so good, the COW farther
suffering during winter, when, to sup
port herself and coming calf, she re-
quires an increased quantity of feed,
but. not getting it, she is in i'll condition
to enter upon the milking period; loss
results, whatever her feed may be be-
tween that time and a full feed of grass,
taking most of the summer on good
pasture to regain not only what is lost
in milk. but good condition of flesh.
To try to save fodder is the great error.
Fodder is material on which profit is to
be made, and farm animas are the ma
chimes to work it up, and the greater
the quantity that is used, if intelligently
done, the greater will be the GAIN,

An alarming state of affairs

An alarming state of affairs exists
in Hartville, Wy. T., and many deeds
of violence, of which the outside world
knows little or nothing, have been COM
mitted there of late. Cowboys and
other roughs keep peaceably disposed
citizens in a constant state of terror by
discharg ng their pistols promiscuously
in the street, compelling citizens to
dance in the highways, shooting at
door knobs, wagon wheels and other
OBJ ;ects, and enjoying themselves gem
orally about town in that lawless fash
ion which they are proud to call pecul-
iarly their own. The trouble arose out
OF. the question whether Hartville should
or should not have school house. A
committee of citizens decided in the af-
frmative, but the cowboys say no.

About Terra-COtta.

The manufacture of terra-cotta has
been carried on in some form from the
earliest civilization of which we have
any record; in fact, much of our knowl-
edge of ancient history has been de-
rived from terra-cotta tablets, whose>im
pervious surfaces have retained the
original inscriptions for thousands OF
years, under conditions that have
caused stone to crumble away and have
corroded metal until all trace of it's hav-
ing been fashioned by human hands has
disappeared.
Terra-cotta would literally include
everything made of cooked earth, -
from brick to china and porcelain; but
what is now understood by the term is
something neither SO rough and coarse
rs brick nor SO fine rs porcelain. II is
not an imitation of stone nor a substi-
tute for it. but n material possessing
distinct advantages and capabilities
subject to the linn tations imposed 1y
the consistency and the processes of
manufacture, which processes have now
become SO exact as to enable us to de-
fine clearly the advantages of terra
Gotta as compared with other materials
in any particular undertaking. AS an
understanding of the nature of anv ma
terial is the first requisite for its proper
treatment in design. we shall briefly
describe the various stages of manu-
facture. from the selection of the CLAW
to its final crystalization in work of
art 49,
The clay selected for terra Gotta is
that composed of silicateof alumnia and
a small per eentage of iron. oxides of
iron, as in bricks. producing red color
when fired. The clay is stacked in
sheds until it is dry; it is then ground
to fine powder. and mixed with pow
dered old terra-cotta or with ground
flint. granite sand, or other vitrifiable
substances. The mixture is then ground
with a certain small proportion of wa
teri to obtain perfectly homogeneous,
ductilesmodelling clay free from the
smallest air cavities. The proportion
of water determines the shrinkage that
must occur in burning. and this shrink
age can he relied upon as one-twelfth.
All objects, whether mere cubes or
as possible of the same thickness
as a solid object invariably
becomes distorted in burning. owing to
the intexior being more slowly aked
than the exposed portions. The darker
the color Ne.1uired the harder the firing
,r,,xt be. often reaching white heat, or
more than fD0o F.
It has not .Iways been possible to at
tain perfect uniformity Of color in
number of piece.S OF terfa-cotta. even
when the pieces have been made OF the
anne mixture and l. urned at the same
lime: but this fact is rarely serious
IA 'ection. On the contrary, in many
instances some variation In tone in a
reduplicati0n o. form is
acreeably effective. +. Oakley, in

The Physiology Of Talking Through the
Nose.

"Ialhang through the nose'' when a
person has cold is in reality talking
with the nose so stopped that less rath
er than more than the usual quantity of
vibrating air can pass through the nasal
cavity. In producing certain articulate
sounds those which occur in English
are represented by m, ~ and ng-all the
vocal air escapes from the pharynx by
the nose. The nasal air-passa9e has the
general form of a resonator, and there
can be no doubt but that it has a cor
responding influence, and that the
sounds produced by the air passing
through it are strengthened by its reso-
nance. The larger the nasal cavity the
more powerful the resonance, and con-
sequently the re enforcement expert
enced by the tone. Sounds uttered
with the nasal resonance, particularly
the nasal vowels, are fuller and more
ample than the same sounds when
strengthened by the resonance of the
cavity of the mouth. and it is for this
reason that thirdrate tragic actors like
to give a nasal resonance to all the VOW
els in the pathetic speeches of their he
role parts. The resonance of the nasal
cavity plays a part also in the formation
of non-nasal articulate sounds; then,
however, appearing only as a re-en-
forcement of the resonance of the cavi-
ty of the mouth. The directly excited
nasal resonance sometimes plays an i'm
mediate part in the formation of all ar
ticulate sounds, producing the nasal
''twang." But the general conception
of this mode of speaking is by no means
scientifically correct, every species of
pronunciation in which the nasal ele-
ment asserts itself with undue prom-
hence being called talking through the
nose" 1t may, however, arise from
two unlike causes; firstly, from a stop
page of the nasal cavity; or, secondly,
from incomplete closure of the poster.or
entrance to this cavity. If the nasal
cavity is INSTRUCTED, as when a child's
nose is pinched and he is told to say
pudding" an accumulation of air
forms in the back of the mouth, being
unable to escape through the nose. and
in the end is obliged to find exit tn rough
the mouth. The resonance is also al
tered, and the nasal sounds are, there
fore, formed imperfectly and falsely.
The same disturbance is produced by
the partial obstruct on of the nasal cav
ity which is experienced from the swol-
len condition of the mucous membrane,
and from its increased secretion. during
a .'cold in the head. -. 4. Fern0ld,
