By means of the new and ingenious
little instrument known as the hyalo-
lyphotype, or hot pen, drawings can
be made on glass or CLASSY substances
with a waxy composition, which is
solid and somewhat hard at ordinary
temperatures. The psn is so contrived
that ii can be heated either by gas or
by electric current, and the waxy
material flows easily from the heated
pen, setting so quickly on the glass
that cross hatchlng can be done more
rapidly than with ordinary pen aud
ink, without risk of blocking up the
angles; corrections, too, can be made
withthe geatest ease by means of a
penknife, which leaves the surface
afterwsrd intact After the drawing
has been made, the plate is etched by
huoric acid, and when complete it can
be either eloctro-syped, stereotyped,
used direct, or applied to any purpose
for which engraved surfaces are re
quircd.

RESIDENTS of Athens, N. Y, are
mystilied bv the curious actions of a
partridge that appears in a lonely
part ofGrlilin's woods, on the road
from Catskill to Athens. 1t always
appears at dusk, and seems very
tame. On Thursday evening, while
George w. Loud and his daughter
were driving through the woods, it
appeared trotting along the road by
the side of the horse. The horse was
stopped. The bird stopped also, Mr..
Loud jumped out and tried to catch
it. 1t ran from one side of the road
TO the other, but did not offer to fly,
and at length nopped into the woods
and disappeared, On two or three
previous occasions il alighted on the
back OF Mr.. Lpud's horse Other Ath
enian's say it has slighted on their
horses. The spot where the queer
bird is seen is described as beng q
very "spookish place"

THE condition OF the poor in Ger.
many is shocking. SIN 1867, says
correspondent OF the Philadelphia
Times, when the first systematic
survey Of the housing of the poor in
Berlin was scientifically carried out,
there lived 300, 900 human beings in
dwellings with but Que room each,
that could be heated and beside these
there are Others in dwellings with no
opportunity for heating whatsoever.
In nineteen years that have inter
vened the population of Berlin has
increaeed enormously, and it is prob
ably safe to assume that to-day these
numbers are too small rather than too
large, while in 1875 1912 per cent, of
TIC whole population lived in dwell
ings below ground.

About s. 600, 600 in gold left tie
country for Europe last week, aud as
the exodus of the precious metal is
likely to continue for sOrae weeks
longer the fact may cause nervous
ness on The port "f those who do not
reflect that AT this time Ct the year the
balance Of trade is likely to be against
MS. The balance for the whole year
will in probability be in our favor, as
il has been ever since 1876. Previous
to that the balance was generally
against us Should it turn in that di-
ractIon with any degree of rersistency
again, the gold would go in earnest
and the crisis in the currency question
would not be long coming. There is
no prospect Of such turn in sight,
however.

GOODS are made to considerable
extent in Ssxony from a textile fibre
obtained from the needles of the fir
tree. The needles young and green,
are dried and subjected to settling
and fermenting process similar 10 that
in use fer flax, which softeas the
woody parts and loosens them from
the fibre, though the complete sepsrs,
ton is only obtained after lengthy
boiling by steam. During this boil
ing by product appears, called tir-
wood oil, which is similar to the tur-
pentlne. The fibre is passed through
milling machine like those used for
wooleE cloth, and is carded, and spun
like cotton. Generally the cardtd fibre
is mixed with a certain proportion of
cotton or wool, and thus a kind of
merino yarn is produced, which is
worked in the hosiery frames iu.o
singlets, drawers, stockings, Sc,
these fabrics being then sold as anti
rheur1atics and as preventive OF the
gout.
