A PICTURE DRAWN BY FIRE.

A Pretty Experiment for a Young

PORTRAITS.
Here is an entertaining experiment
that any boy or Q RI NAV try:
Take a saturated solution of nitrate
of potash Csaltpetre). and with quill
pen or fine brush draw any picture. de-
sign or words upon a piece of white,
absorbent paper. The lines should be
kept away from each other. and the
entire subject coarsely drawn in out

" invisible; but if one Of them be
touched with the glowing end of an
extinguished match a spark Of fire will
run through the paper, following
the lines already traced. and cutting
out the design as if with an invis bic
knife.
This experiment is explained By the
chemical constitution OF the saltpetre.
The salt contains large amount Of OK

in contact with The paper, Of course
the whole would be consumed; but the
heat Of the glowing charcoal is just
sufficient to start the combustion by

The Belief in Luck.

The belief in luck results from a pez-
sistent effort to explain what is to
the majority inexpicable, and We
may suspect that as the inexpicable
is usually attributed to an unseen
chain of causes, a good many sense
less efforts to change the luck-as,
for instance, turning the chair at
whist, or changing ones house-ars
Efforts, conscious or unconscious, to
break the chain Ofcausality, to defect
the stream, as it were, and make it
pass by US. But this explanation
does not in the leasU meet the strange
feeling which attaches luck or iii luck
to inanimate things, q feeling which,
avOWed throughout the East, and
nearly universal with the vulgar of
the West, fingers even among the
cultivated to an astonishing degree.
We have met men and women en-
tirely free from it, or at least so free
that neither they nor we could detect
it; but we suspect the majority of
our readers viii admit that they are
aware Oft existence in their own
minds-that is, that they possess or
know Of things to which in spite of
reason, they attach lucky or unlucky
influence.
The extent of the feeling varies
with temperament, but few are Who'll
ly free from it, and with some it is an
abiding conviction, leading, in the
case of the loss of the thing thus val
ued, to acute mental suffering. 1t is
not all association which induces
women to sob over q mislaid we'd

from Norton Bush, who is to have charge
Of the art department at the State Fair, in
which he SAYS:
"It looks as if we were to have the finest
art display we have had yet. Besides
Deakin's large exhibit we shall have several
new French pictures Just imported by
Deakin brothers and never yet exhibited.
They are by celebrated men who have
taken medals at the Salon"
Among the collections TO be brought up
will be a picture of General Sutter standing
just outside of Suffers Fort, by Lentze, the
great American historical painter. Leutzes
fame was made when he produced his
famous paintings, Washington Crossing
the Delaware" and Washington a: Tren-
ton." Both of these pictures are in the
library at the State University, and besides
these there is but one more of Leutze's in

ing of Sheridan at Winchester" by the

A Cnlnsa Prnnhat.

The editor of the Maxwell Mercury says
Those who have studied carefully the
movements and habits of animals, birds
and insects are often able to correctly tell in
advance any sudden or important changes
that may take place in the weather. Es-
pecially is this noticeable when the seasons
are about to change. Newspaper men of
Sacramento have carefully watched and re-
corded the dates of the migrations of geese
every fall for many years, and it is said that
they never fail in their predictions of a
coming dry or wet winter. Wild geese are
beginning now to migrate from the north
10 the vast tule lands along the Sacramento
river, which is six weeks earlier than the
time they appeared last year; consequently
a very wet winter may be expected this
year, and it will be well for farmers TO pre-
pare for bountiful harvest next year. The
savants of Sacramento are willing to wager
that the early movement of wild fowl
southwark is a certain indication of plenty
OF rain next winter"
