A Salt Water Aquarium.

A tank is superior to globe for an aqua
rum because it exposes longer surface of
the water to the air, SO that more oxygen is
absorbed from the atmosphere, and thus is
better for the health of the fish. Less light
Is thought necessary for a salt water aqua
rum than for fresh water one, and the glass
on three sides Of the tank may receive an
outside coating of green paint leaving only
the front side clear. The arch in the center
is put together with aquarium cement
About an inch Of sand is put over the bottom
of the aquarium, and seaweeds attached to
small stones are placed in it, the stones serv-
ing to keep the plants upright. Animals
should never be introduced into an aquarium
until the plants are well established and begin
to make new growth. a glass cover, with
standards which furnish space for the ad-
mission of air is useful for keeping out dust.
A north or east window is best adapted to a
salt water aquarium, and the air in the room
should be kept always pure and fresh. Pre-
pared food, lean beef dried, oysters or clans,
all chopped fine, may be used for feeding

DpafeninC Floors,

Various expedients have been used for
"deafening" floors, as it is called. Numbered
with material used for the purpose are NOR
tar, mixed with chopped hay or straw, dry
lime, rubbish sand, hair, sawdust etc. Any
of the named materials in layers of two
inches will suffice to deaden sound Building
News suggests some other substances, as thick
felt, laid below the floor board. Stag wool
made in the form Of tiles or bricks, is good
material to prevent the transmission Of
sound, and any tibrous material formed into
cellular Slabs answers the purpose A French
journal throws out another suggestion attrib-
uted to Gen. Loyre, who proposes, instead of
loading the floor with plaster to fill in the
space between the boarding and the plaster
ing and ceiling with shavings which have
been rendered incombustble by dipping them
in a tub of thick whtewash AS it is known
that soft substances inclosing air spaces form
an excellent non-conducting material to
sound, it is thought that the shavings so
treated will be found of great service and it
is said they are SO incombustble as to add
considerably to the fire resisting properties of
the building. Where it is desired to diSinfect
the space between the floor and ceiling the
shavings may be saturated with chloride Of
zinc, or the latter may be added to tine lime
wash.

Boys often ask how to train animals The
following answer is given to this query in
Harper's Young People Whether it be an ele-
plant, lion, seal, pig, horse, or a dog,
the answer is always the same-patience,
kindness, frmness, good temper and good
judgment If your pupil makes mistake,
correct it gently but firmly; if he does wrong
willfully, punish him severely, but without
anger. That is the way all the animals at
Barnum's are trained, and it is the only sue
cessful way to teach anything, whether it be
a canary bird or an elephant, monkey Or
shall we say boyi
