replied g really have no ambition in that

took in these looks and related little story.

ported in a few days that he had

pounds. / had him boxed and carefully
packed in ice, and shipped him by express
to my disbeHeying friends at the Oakland.
From the restauIateur ! got all the recipes
could for catfish chOwder catfish steaks,
stuffed catfish, roast, etc, and sent them by

your fish before you cook him, catfish
skin being so rank as to spoil the flesh
when the fish IS cooked with it on. They
got my telegram and were puzzled. When
the box arrived, dripping from the melt
ing ice they were more puzzled. The
letter, which arrived by the same train as
the fish, explained all They had a fine

Wood and Glass Yeneers.

The increasing costliness of the better
class of woods has reduced the thickness of
veneer to the utmost limit, until at length
it has come TO be about the thickness of
paper-a liuIitwhich can scarcely be passed
so long Us wood is used for the purpose of
veneering. The primary object in reducing
this thickness has been to get as many We
ncers as possible out of given quantity of
wood. the cost decreasing proportiOnately
a. the number Of sheets is increased. But
o collateral additional advantage is found
in the fact that in proportion to the thin
ness of the veneer is its adaptabilitv to cover
uneven surfaces by reason of its Increasing
elasticity An excellent process. which was
recently introduced in England, dispenses
with wood by substituting glass, to carry
on which a company with a large capital
was rapidly formed. The two prin-
cipal features which present them
selves in the manufacture, according to an
expert. are its adaptability to every form of
ornament and It's remarkable cheapness
In explanation of the former, it may be
hiuted that a varnish of glass in the process
of manufacture, so to speak, is coated over
the surface to be vcncered, however intri-
cate the design may be; and when suisse
quently finished of it forms a glazed
veneer upon the wood, of any desired pat
tern 1t may be made to initiate costly
woods by a chemical process analogous to
photography, and the imitation being on
the inner side of the glass, the outer sur
face Of the finished veneer is always clean
and imperVious to atmospheric effects The
veneer is applicable to exterior as well as to
interior decoration, is not liable to injury
by scratching or staining with ink, acids
etc; while its cost is onc-half that of ordi-
nary polished wood veneer, and the process
of application is one Of the simplest posi-

One Of the most starting and romantic

scene was most romantic and the picture

with the stone itself, and form real endo-
