A Thrifty Snini.

Gov. st. John has been pleading for tenn
perance pretty steadily since he arrived IN
New Jersey eleven days ago, and he must
have earned at least SS25. II he is able to
maintain thia rate Of active usefulness IN
other parts of the Union his income can
hardly be less than $4,000 year-only
about half what he would have received as
President of the United States, but much
more, we venture to say, than he could
command in any other private capacity than
that of professional apostle,

Curing Meat.

In curing meat on a farm two
great agents are employed, salt and
smoke. Salt absorbs the juices of the
meat, and, acting upon the same prin-
ciple, retards putrefaction by absorbing
the fluid of the meat. This will form
a brine that will effectually ward off the
attacking oxygen wherever it covers
the meat. This is why we cover hams
and bacon with strong brine. Salt
possesses no active principles to stay
p@utrefaction; it is only a negative fac
tor. BY absorbing the fluids necessary
to chemical changes, and shutting of
the eager oxygen from the meats, it
preserves it. But it dissolves some OF
the salts and other valuable elements
and consequently renders the meats less
nutritious and wholesome. Smoke,
like salt, absorbs the moisture Of the
meat and thereby aids i'll the stopping
of p~utrefaction. But as a preventative
os meat it derives its chief value from
the creosote it contains. 1t is creosote
hat gives smoke it's characteristic
odor. ana renders it so irritating to the
ewes. 1t is an active agent in the
preservation of meat, differing from
salt, which only acts negatlvely.--'SS-

WISE SAYINGS.

The highest assurance of the truth
of the Gospel is ~vouchsafed to thoses
only who have experienced it's personal,
saving power.-N. W. Christian Advo-
cate.
The reason why so many people,
get nothing from prayer is that they
expect effects without causes; and this
also is the reason why they give it up.
1t is not irreligiQn that makes men give
up prayer, but the uselessness of their.
prayers.-H. Druznmond.
-Absalom, who was a fool, wished
himself a Judge; Solomon, who was 81
wise mar trembles at the Undertakings
and suspects his own fitness for it.
The more knowing and considerate men;
are, the better they are acquainted with!
their own weakness, and the more
jealous of themselves.-Henry
In one OF his recent sermons Spur:
geon has this word to say of a certain;
class of men who do not realize their;
own imperfections: ''Some are tall by:
the measurement of c%onceit, but small,
when brought to the standard Of wis
DOM" What changes would be made,
in the judgments Of men if each one,

stantly increasing its influence among'
men under the severest intellectual test,

position and the bitterest Of persecu-
ton? Is there any? If so, what, when
and where?-Baptist Reflector.
Were search made by the angels:
throughout this Nation for the man
dearest to God, where think you he
would most likely be found? Very pos;
sibly not at the head of armies, OF in:
the mansions Of the rich and the mighty
and the noble, or in the halls of learn
ing, or in the chair of state, or in the
resounding pulpit; but quite as prob.
ably, I think even more probably, re-
mote from the crowd and struggle Of
ambition, in solitude. perhaps in tears,
in some humble cottage of the poor, or!
in an asylum of charity. Take heed
that ye despise not N of these little
~ones."-LtIMe. .,
-Chaf is blown hither and thither
by the wind; an arrow goes straight to-
the mark. The chatf moves in no def
mite direction and'for no definite pur-!
pose; the arrow is aimed at q single
carefully-chosen point, and it takes the
shortest way to get there. If you would
be successful in the Lords business, or
in your own business, let the arrow,
rather than the chat, be your model
Do not attempt to go in half a dozen
different directions at the same time,
but having decided what goal you ought
to reach, fix your eyes upon it, and
move to it as unswervingly as the arrow
moves to the marks. S. Time,

WEIGHING COINS.
How the Yellow Beauties Are Scrutinized
IN the Bank of England.

!" Cuo 1eIlO" 11cduIlcS are SCruClElZGO
IN the Bank of England.
In another room of this department
the weighing office-are seen the
machines for detecting light coin.
These machines are marvels of in
genious mechanism. Three or four
hundred sovereigns are laid in a long
brass scoop OF semi-tube, of such a
diameter as to admit them comfortably,
and self-regulatingg to such an incline
that the coins gradually slide down by
theirown weighto on to one plate of little
balance placed at its lower extremity.
Across the face of this plate two little
bolts make alternate thrusts, one to
the right, one to the left, but at slightly
different levels. If the coin be of full
weight, the balance is held in equipoise,
and the right-hand bolt, making it's
thrust. pushes it off the plate and
down an adjacent tube into the re-
ceptacle for full-weight coin. II, on
the other hand, the coin is ever
so little eight the balance naturally
rises with it. The right-hand bolt
makes it's thrust as before, but this
time passes harmlessly beneath the
cola. Then comes the thrust of the
left-hand bolt, which, as we have said,
is fixed at a fractionally higher level,
and pushes the coin down a tube on
tho opposite side, through which it
falls into the light-coin receptacle.
The coins thus condemned are after
ward dropped into another machine,
which defaces them by a cut half way
across their diameter, at the rate of
200 q minute. The weighing machines,
Of which there are sixteen, are actuated
by q small atmospheric engine in one
corner of the room, the only manual
assistance required being tn keep them
supplied with coins. It is said that co.;
