The Parrot and the Monkey Story.

A well-worn American anecdote de-
scribes the result of owning both par
rot and monkey. When the owner of
the bird and the beast comes home one
day he finds the monkey decked with
red and green feathers, but he does
not find the parrot for long while. At
last the bird appears from an obscure
corner plucked bare save a single tail
feather. He hops upon his perch with
such dignity as he can muster, and says,
with infinite pathos: "Oh, we have had
q hell of timel" At first nothing could
seem more American than this, but my
friend, Mr.. Austin Dobson, has recent
ly drawn my attention to story essen

New York, where q well-known wit hap

sufferer is supposed to ask the man
who offers the parrot for sale if it

better than you I'd wiring its neck" is
the vendors indignant answer. I found

Machinists and engineers often have
occasion to use mortar, and will value
the appended information: Good NOR
tar is solid silicate of lime, that is,
the lime unites with the silica or sand
to form silicate of lime. In ancient
days those who had some conception OF
the way the two things united super
intended their mixing; but nowadays
anybody is supposed to know how to
make mortar, while nobody knows much
about it. Dry lime and sand laid to-
gether or mixed and kept dry q thousand
years would not unite to form silicate
of lime any more than acetic acid and
carbonate of soda dry in bottle would
effervesce. To make silicate of lime
just as good as was made by the Romans,
all that is necessary is to proceed in
diligently: Procure good caustic, fresh
burned lime, and If you find it all pow
der, air slaked, don't use it; use only
clear Jumps. Stake this Off possible in
covered vesseD, using only enough
water to cause the lime to form pow
der. To this while hot add clear sand
not dirt and loan, called sand, but
sand-Rnd with the sand add enough
water to form paste. Then let it lie
where it will not become dry by evapor-
alton, If in cellar so much the better !;
for as soon as you have mixed the sand
and lime as above, they begin to react
one on the other, and if not stopped by
being deprived of moisture will go on
reacting until silicate of lime Gas hard
as silicate of lime ever was) is formed.
But if you take the so-called mortar
as soon as made, and lay bricks with it,
unless the bricks are thoroughly wet you
stop the formation of lime, and might
as we'll lay your bricks in mud. Lime
and sand, after being mixed, might lie
two years with advantage, and for GER
tain uses, such as boiler setting, or
where the whole structure of brick and
mortar is to be dried, the mortar ought
to be mixed for one year before use, and
two would be better; but for house
building, if the bricks are so wetted as
not to rob the mortar of its moisture as
soon as used, mortar that has been
mixed month will form good solid
silicate of lime among the bricks it is
laid within ten years, and will be still
harder in hundred years. The prac-
tice of mixing mortar in the streets and
using it at once is as foolish as it is ig-
norant, and would be no improvement.
Silicate of lime is made only by the
slow action of caustic lime and sand,
one on the other, under the influence
of moisture. Dry they never will unite,
and mixing mortar as now mixed and
nsino it at once. SO as to dry. it out and
stop the formation that the mixing
induced, is wrong.-AmericGn Guilt

POLITICAL.

Postmaster General Villas has noti-
fed the members of Congress that they must
determine the Postmasters of the fourth
class for their respective districts. He finds
many applications Endorsed by members for
the same Offices. He insists that some one
man must be designated by the member, as
he does not desire TO decide between the
rival aspirants. This will give Congressman
employment for some months to come.

caught mapping by such shrewd and willy
schemers as Daniel Shepard, Long Jones

A Million Burials In Seven Acres.

DIR. Beugless, before the Nineteenth
Century Club, describing the cemetery
of Kensal Green, in London, where
Leigh Hunt, Thackeray, and others
famous in English history were said
to be buried, said that seven acres of
the cemetery were set apart for the
burial Of London's poor. The direct
ors of the cemetery, in country which
laid more stress on burial than any
other in the world, said that there were
in the seven acros 1873, 800 graves.
Each grave held ten collins, making the
total of l, 1886, 900 bodies of poor people
buried there. It was figured that by
burying over the same ground once
every ten years the seven acres would
last indefinitely. This gave % feet of
surface space to each body for one day
only.
