ATTENTION TO DETAILS.
A Few illustrations of the Importance c
Little Things.

A Few illustrations of the Importance OF
Little Things.
The entire universe is composed of
little things. All substances, all mat
| ter, in whatever form or condition, is
Absolute perfection is rarely attaina-
| BILE, as defect in single atom is
| likely to affect the whole combination.
A bridge is no stronger than its
| weakest point. A machine or imple-
ment may be ever so perfect, with q
single exception, and that exception
may prevent the use of all the balance.
How often do we find it the case that
the neglect of some little moment, has
turned the tide towards failure when
success was in sight.
Manufacturers often become so alb
sorbed in some vital principal, that
they neglect details, little points are
overlooked, and when dependence is
placed on these, they fail, and the
whole work is condemned us conse-
quence. A recent invitation to inspect
the working of a new machine was
disappointment simply because the
manufacturer had neglected to send
Il single bolt, and loss of time and dis
appointment to the party needing the
machine was the result. An article
for household use, but little liable to
get out of order, but requiring a wrench
10 remove certain parts when it be-
came necessity, was thrown out be-
h.a In, h;a
case every part was carefully made
and fitted, and of good material, but it
required wrench of special form to
adjust certain parts in case of failure
to work properly. Although the arti-
Gle was an expensive one, the wrench
was a common cast iron affair, with
Jaws beveled and unfinished, except
for the superfluous japan with which
it was coated to hide its imperfections.
1t would have been next to useless
even had it fitted. as it had net suffi-
cient strength, but it was doubly pro
voking to find that, while it was essen.
tial to the proper working of the arti-
Gle, and instructions how and where it
was to be used under certain circum-
stances accompanied it, it was per-
fectly useless when the emergency oc-
Cured. A perfect wrought iron
wrench, would have cost but little more
and been effective, but it was too
small matter to deserve special at
tention, apparently, and the neglect
resulted, not only in u positive loss to
the purchaser, but condemnation in
stead of "a recommendation, which pre-
vented sales to others instead of in
fiuencing them.-StoUeS and HardWare.

TRAVELLING IN PERSIA.
Country Where Poor People Live on
Eight Cents Day.

L
Eight Cents Day.
When we enter Persia we are in the
/ poor mans paradise-a country where
existence is possible upon I'D. day,
where rreat costs Id. pound, and
bread n quarter as much in ordinary
| times; where fowl may be purchased
for Cd, partridge or wild duck for
| I'd; where serviceable pony can be
| had for five-pound note and n valu-
| able thoroughbred for ego; where a
servant can be hired for IS. n
month and his rations, and you can
| feed horse upon 3D.. day. In most
of the cities a large house can be
rented for from E10 to ESQ year, and
| all the necessaries of life are to be had
at the very cheapest rate. The very
mules upon which we are to march to
the capital, each of which will carry
load of 2s0 pounds, are hired at
the rate OF Cd. day; and yet from this
small sum the muleteer, if he be fortu-
nate, will obtain a good profit The
beasts are fat, there is plentiful her.
bage for the first five stages, and u
cut straw is all that the mules will get
during the other six days journey, and
each day the mules will march their 20
TO % miles, and go merrily along under
their 300-pound load, for the great pack
saddle can not weigh less than 20 to 30
pounds, while the load itself is seldom
less than $50, and they will steadily
maintain their pace at an average OF
four miles an hour, save in the case of
mountain passes, storms, swamps, and
the numerous contretemps incidental
to Eastern travel. The pack-saddle is
very important part Of the mules
equipment. Save when he is curry
combed, the pack-saddle never leaves
him by day or night; it supports the
load and acts as his clothing, for,
however severe the weather may
be, the hardy Persian mule gets
no other. or course, the pack saddle
is of the most solid construction;
it's high peak towers at least Is inches
above the withers of the animal, and
the padding is nowhere less than six
inches thick. This padding is COM
posed of cut straw, and the muleteer
is accustomed. by means of packing
needle thrust through the lining of the
pad, to shift this stutiing in such way
as to remove the pressure from any
part of the animals back which may
become tender. Of course, q mule with
bad sore back is useless and has to be
turned out to grass: and, strange to
say, though there are many millions
of mules and ponies used as beasts of
burden in Persia-for, be it remem-
bered, there are no railways, no rivers,
no canals, and only one road, that
from Kasvin to the capital Except u
few that have been made for the Shah's
personal convenience-still a mule
with sore back is very unusual
sight. This says a great deal for the
care, intelligence and skill of the Per-
sian muleteer. Words.

that was very flattoring to Aunt Bettie's

and many of the young folks carried home

laughed and joked each other over the easy

A New Disinfectant.

A new and powerful disinfectant has
lately been discovered by Partisan
chemist, and If what he claims for it
be true, it will be adopted for every
conceivable purpose for which disin-
fectants are generally used. The basis
of the preparation has been obtained
from coal oil and is brown liquid of u
not very disagreeable odor. 1t is the
result OF peculiar saponilication of
the oil by chemical process with IA
mixture of caustic soda. The value OF
The disinfectant was accidentally dis
covered by the author, who, desiring
to save pet tree around which lot
of fungus and moss had grown, sprin-
killed. some of the mixture around the
roots. BY repeated use the excresence
was shortly afterward noticed to sepa-
rate from the tree and fall to the ground.
Horses were also sponged with weak
solution of the mixture and it was
noticed that flies which generally pes
ter the animals gave them wide birth.
