Painting Tin Re0.S.

Tin on a house top should be well
painted once in four years. For roots,
light, cool colors are preferable, be.
cause they reflect the warm rays OF
light and thereby lessen the expansion
and contraction Of the metal and the
shrinking of the boards underneath.
and so lessen the liability of the tin to
crack in the seams. The temperature
of attic rooms in the summer will be
materially lower if the roof be painted
with a light rather than with a dark
color. The writer has learned from
long experience that the finest French
ocher is the most economical pigment
that can be used for that purpose. If,
rs is sometimes the case in country
houses, where the roof is conspicuous
object in the architecture of the build
ing. a dark color be Indispensable, the
use of pure Venetian red darkened with
Iampblack is recommended as the most
durable and economical. If by some
process the oil used in roof painting
could be prevented from becoming hard
and brittle. it would be great gain.
The poorest oil paint, however, is
better than neglect; and the best econ.
omy consists in keeping tin entirely and
thoroughly protected from the cor.
roding influence of dampness. Old
paint, which has become ''fatty' from
exposure to the atmosphere, is better
than new for roof painting. Not q
drop of turpentine should be used fos
such work. The Metal Worker.

Making Cider Vinegar.

The malic acid of the apple and the
acetic acid produced from the fermen-
tation of the sugar of the juice are both
wholesome and an aid to digestion. and
the natural desire for these acids. es-
pecially the former. which exists in all
fruits, may be considered as an instinct
i've craving for necessary article of
food, just as the appetite for salt and
sugar is. The formation of the vege-
table acids is one of the curiosities of
agricultural science which shows in a
remarkable way what very great
change is made in the character OF
various substances by the mere adj
dition or subtraction of one or more
chemical elements contained in them.
Thus, the following table will show
how starch is changed into sugar,
sugar into glucose. glucose into aleo-
hol, and alcohol into vinegar, or acetic
acid. which is the last stage OF the
chemical change, excepting putrefac-
ton, when the substance finally disap-
pears in an explosive gas:

SeaWeed and Its Uses.

In tropical climates the little air
bladders which support the seawracks
are of great service, for the masses OF
seaweed are several hundred feet long
and of considerable height, having
stems the thickness of q mans thigh,
and branches and dropping stems which
SUPPORT innumerable forms of animal
life, such as corals, crabs, worms OF
different kinds, together with MOSES
and weeds Of the sea. and being be-
side place of deposit for innumerable
eggs of various creatures. In Scotland
the tender parts of the seawracks,
known as tangles, are used as food,
and when cooked are considered fine
diet for cattle The stems of very
hard, horny variety of the seawracks
are used as knife handles. They are
cut in short pieces, and while moist or
green the blade is forced in at one end.
When the stem dries it clings firmly to
the knife blade. Being gnarled and
horny it resembles bucks horn, and
when tipped with metal and fully fin
ished forms an expensive knife-handle.
The rose tangles are higher up IN the
scale of vegetable life. and their deli
cate tints render them very beautiful.
OF these, dulse is an important variety
to the Scotch and Irish, who, beside
using it as food. both in its raw state
and cooked in milk, find in it substi-
tute for tobacco. Carrageen moss is
another kind OF rose -tangle, from which
q nourishing jelly is made. The Chi
nese use one variety of rose-tangle As
chief ingredient in other CLOSING
preparations; $4,000 pounds are
brought annually to Canton and sold
from six to eighteen pice per pound

Atoms of.

Here it is seen that by adding an
equivalent of water to starch 1t Is
changed into cane sugar; one more
equivalent of water changes cane sugar
into glucose. BY breaking up ono
equivalent of glucose into two parts
and taking from them four equivalents
of carbonic acid-which, it is well
known. escape i'm the alcoholic fermen-
tation-there are left two equivalents
of alcohol. One equivalent of alcohol,
then, loses two atoms of hydrogen and
gains one of oxygen, and becomes
vinegar, or acetic acid; and it Is exceed
ingly curious to see how, after all these
changes, three equivalents of vinegar
are precisely alike in composition to
one equivalent of glucose, or fruit
sugar.
Every one of these changes occurs in
the production of vinegar from apples.
The starch and acids Of unripe fruit are
changed into sugar as the fruit ripens
by the addition of oxygen, chiefly from
the air; and. indeed, this addition OF
oxygen takes place in the exposure oil

Georgetown, January Lit is with

whom none more worthy ever lived

feel greatly our loss. He leaves wife
and several children, the most of
whom are grown, and who enjoy hon

1t is also with sadness we mention
the death Of Mrs. Wilbarger, mother
in-law OF Judge A. s. Walker of
A usiin. She was one of the first set
tiers in this country, and had many
warm friends here. Thus ii Is that
two of our most worthy and honored
citizens have passed away. Could we
but initiate the noble example left us
BY these, we could truly sl, the world
