To Restore Faded Photographs.

TO accomplish this, according to the
British .IowrRai Of Pt0tOgrnDhg. than
which there can be no better authority
on such Il subject, one has only to I'M
merse the yellow print in dilute solu-
ton of bichloride of mercury until all
the yellowness disappears. 1t is then
well washed in water TO remove the
mercurial salt. If the print be mount
Ell one, it is by no means necessary to
unmount it previously to treatment.
All that is required in this case is to
keep it in intimate contact for a time
with blotting paper charged with the
bichlorate; indeed, this is the plan orig
inally suggested by Mr.. Barnes. BY
the bichlOride treatment no lost detail
is actually restored, as some have imag-
ined. 1t is simply that the siekly yell
low color, which, as it were, buried the
delicate halftints, or what remains of
them, Is removed, and thus renders the
picture bright and clear. Pictures which
have been treated with the mercury al
ways possess 4 much warmer tone than
they did originally: as the purple or
the black tones give way to a reddish
brown or reddish purple. more or less
bright, according. probably. as gold or
sulphur had been the principal lOning
agent. Here a question very naturally
arises with regard TO the future. perfor-
NANCE of pictures which have been thus
restored, seeing that negatives in
tensified with mercury, or Transparent
cies toned by it, are SO prone 10 change.
In answer 10 this. wemay mention that
they appear to be permsnent; at least
thai iS our experience with soa.e that
have been done for many years. There
appears 10 he no further loss of detail,
and the whites retain the purity; in
deed, since undergoing the treatment
with mercury, no alteration j. yet per-
ceptible.

The Birthplace OF Great southerners.

A nicely woried paragraph is going
the rounds of thu press under the tit
of Henry Clay'> Birthplace. 1t calls
it Ashland. Ky. and treats it with pa
thos .nd feeling. The fact is Henry
Clay was not born in Kentucky at all.
He was Virginia boy who first saw the
light in Hanover County. and did not
come to Kentucky until he was over ~.
The greatest men of both Kentucky
and Tennessee have been born in other
States Ben Harden. the great orator
of Kentucky, was born in Pennsylva-
mia; George NJ. Bill. Tyler's Secretary
OF the Treasury, was born in Virginia;
and Henry Watterson, Of the Courier
Journal, first saw light in Washington.
ID. {. As to Tennessee, the matter is
still worse. Before the war it had
hardly man of national prominence
who had been born within its borders.
p. esidents jackson and johnson were
born in North Carolina. as was, also,
j. K. Polk and H. L. White, who, it
will be remembered. was Presidential
candidate in the campaign OF 1886.
Parson Brownlow was born in Virginia,
and came to Tennessee as circuit rid
ing Methodist preacher. Felix Grun-
dy, Virgin'an by birth, had made a
reputation and become Chief Justice of
Kentucky before he moved to Tennes-
see. and Horace Maynard, Massachu-
sets college graduate, emigrated to
Tennessee, and started in life as a tu-
tor. Aaron V. Brown, the law partner
of James h. Polk, and dPostmaster-Gen-
eral under Bu .hanan, came into Ten
nessee from Virginia at the age of 20.

Initiative Coloring I'm Marine Life.

The adaptation of the innumerable
tints to every grade of change in the
color of the sea-weed is really marvel
Gus. The younger. lighter green crus-
taceans are always TO be found on the
young, verdant fronds Of the plant,
while the older parts Of~the weed are
inhabited by older, brown animals.
The older stems are often incrusted
with the white shells of bryozOa, and
corresponding with these we are sure
to find white spots on the brown armor
of the crabs. The legs of the animals
are frequently of an olive-green ground
with brownish spots, deceptively like
the slender sea-weed-leaves that are
just beginning to turn brown. If one

plants upon the deck, leave it in cask

then look through it for crabs without

And "a fine a houee as any in town,
To be iamentin2 cause one child in ten
Amt quite as good as he might have been.
Its pretty good showing. it seems to me,
That only tenth of the lot should be
little Off color, and that's what I say
To their mother twenty times day;
But can't make her see il i'm that light,
Aud she listens and waits night after night
For the sound of his step, till grow so wild
That almost curse both mother and child.
tShe ought to live for the others. you know,
Ana let the torInenting vagabond go
And follow his ways and take the pain
But turn him out and she calls him again.
This makes a hardness between hes and me,
And the worst of II is, the children agree

Such times think I'm the meanest OF men.

Her answer is always: My hoy has one friend
As long as live, ami yonr charge is untrue
That my heart holds no equal love for you

Needs me the most, aud yOu'n find tbs the way
OF all mothers to hold close to the one
Who hurts her the most. So loves work is

Now what can say to such words az thOseI

But often wonder which one is right,
As hear her light step mig hi after night,
Here and there. to the window and door,
As she waits with heart that is heavy and
sore.

Il have formed settled conviction
that the world is fed too much. Past
ries, cakes, hot bread, rich gravies.
pickles and pepper sauces are all dis
carded from my bill of fare, and firm
ly believe they will be from the recipes
of the twentieth century. Entire wheat
Hour bread, vegetables, fruit. fish with
a little meaD, and milk as the chief
drink, will distil in the alembic of the
digestic organs, into pure, rich, fever
less blood, electric but steady nerves,
and brains that can think Gods
thoughts after Him, as they have never
Vet been thought This is my recipe:
Plain living and high thinking. and
this my warnings With high living you
will get exceedingly plain thinking, -

A Texas doctor: DIR. Blister is one
of those physicians who do not take
any nonsense from their patients. One
day last week he presented his bill to
Nose Schaumburg. ''One hundred and
fifty tollars!' exclaimed Nose. Ivy,

vould not haf cost ME so much as dot. :"
ITS not too late TO have funeral in
the house yet replied DIR. Blister,
