We are glad to note the appear
ance of Volume KILL, of this ex-
cellent publication. 1t takes the
work along from Electricity to
Exclaim. The information is con-
densed, but clear, accurate, and
brought down to date. There is
no sighting of points, and the
more important topics are treated
with admiral fullness. Thus Flee
tricity has "a pages; Electric
Light, 6 pages; Elizabeth Queen,
about Z pages with a fac-simile of
her Signature, which is interesting
if not beautifully; Emerson, 4 pages;
England, about Is pages; Engrav-
ing, about s pages; Ensilage, near
ly 3 pages; Episcopal Church;
about Z pages; Ethnology, 10 pa,
ges. A cpclopedia of some kind
is needed in every home and every
school. This costs but little,
while for general use it is far
more convenient and practical
than the large and very expensive
works. 1t presents just the kind
of information which is needed in
everyday life. Another valuable
feature is found in the illustra-
tons which are freely used where
needed to explain the text. Thus
far this series of volumes has been
eminently satisfactory, and there
is every reason to believe that
this high standard will be main
tanned until the close. Price on
" 60 cents volume in cloth, or
| 90 cents in half morocco, sent pre-
paid; or to those ordering before
July 1, 1889, the publisher offers
the 13 vols. now ready, in cloth,
prepaid, for $500, or in half mo-
rocco, for sS.15. John B. Alden,

A Mexican Story.

Once, upon a great festival, the town
council of Lagos went to the parish
church to hear the mass. And all the
members of the council were dressed
in seemly state, in black coats and
tight black trousers and flowing cloaks,
and each wore a -brimmed hat of
black felt, over which feather gal
lantly curled. For their comfort a
leather covered bench was placed be-
fore the chancel rail. And when they
came to sit each man in the order of
dignity sat down upon the bench and
placed beside him his hat. But when
six of the twelve councillors thus were
seated the bench was 1ul!. Then q
whispered conference was held, aud it
was decided that the bench must be
stretched. SO six of them took hold
of one end and the other six took hold
of the other end and they pulled hard.
Then they came to sit again. And
now the first councillor put his hat be-
meath the bench, and the second did
likewise, and so did they all. And
they all in comfort sat down, bv which
they knew tnat they had sufficiently
stretched the bench.
Being thus seated the first councillor
crossed his right leg over his left leg,
and so did the second councillor, and
so did they all. But when came the
time in the mass when all must rise
not one of the councillors could tell
which two of the twenty-four legs were
his, for all We're clad in tight black
trousers, and all were crossed. And
each man looked at the many legs,
among which were bis own, and sor-
rowfuliy wondered if he ever should
know his OWE legs among SO many,
and SO be able to arise aud walk. Aud
while they thus pondered it fell out
that the first councillor was bitten by a
flea tiercely in his rearward parts.
And the first councillor slapped at the
flea, and that he might slap the better
uncrossed his lees. Then the second
councillor knew which were his legs,
and SO did the third, and so did they
all. And so they all uncrossed their
legs and with great tha1kfulness arose.

Mrs. Langtry Caught On.

When Mrs. Langtry came for the first
time to this country she was wholly un-
acquainted with the American system of
advertising, says the Baltimore Aneri-
can. But she soon learned. The Young
man who acted as her secretary for
many months after her arrival here
soon thought of writing such matter
for the press as would Justify its pub
lication as news and at the same time
bring her more prominently before the
reading public.
One day he went to her and told her
both ends could be served at once.
She was indignant at the suggestion.
But he was determined to show her
that such things were often done.
Time after time the opportunity pre-
sented itself and he told her how pub
lie curiosity could be aroused over any
one by 4 system of newspaper notices.
After some time Mrs. Langtry regard
ed the plan with less disfavor and
finally consented that he should 60 to
work on his great scheme. He wrote
a column of gossip p that ought to have
been worth ST. a line in any first
class newspaper, and took it to Mrs
Langtry for revision. She would have
slashed two-thirds of it out of the
manuscript, but he made her leave the
expurgations to him.
Il shipped that story" said the ex-
secretary the other day, Ito several
hundred newspapers free of cost, most
of them in small town, through which
Mrs. Lantry would pass in her tour o.
the road. Every single newspaper,
except one, accepted and printed the
story. The proprietor of small
patent inside in the interior of Ohio
returned the manuscript with the re-
mark that he would insert it as an adj
vertisement at SO much per line
Otherwise he could not print it. You
see all the other papers knew that they
were advertising the actress, but they
knew that at the same time they were

How Celiuloid is Manufactured.

While everybody has heard of or
seen or used celluloid only a few know
what it Is composed of or how it is
made The following is a description
OF the progress carried out in factory
near Paris for the production of cellu-
loid: 4 roll of paper is slowly unwound
and at the same time saturated with a
mixture of five parts of sulphuric acid
and two parts of nitric acid, which
falls upon the paper in fine spray.
This changes the celluloSe of the paper
into propyiin gun-cotton. The excess
OF the acid having been expelled by
pressure, the paper is washed with
plenty of water until all traces of acid
have been removed. 1t is then reduced
to pulp and passes to the bleaching
trough Most of the water having
been got rid of by means of strainer,
and the pulp is mixed with from 20 to
20 per cent of its weight in camphor,
and the mixture thoroughly triturated
under mill-stones. The necessary
coloring having been added in the
form of powder, Il second mixing and
grinding follows. The finely divided
pulp is then spread out in thin layers
on slabs, and from twenty to twenty
five OF these layers are placed in a hy-
draulic press, separated from one an
other by some sheets of thick bIotting-
paper, and are subjected to pressure
of 150 atmoSphcres, until all traces of
moisture have been got rid OF. The
matter is then passed between l40 de-
grees and l5O degrees Fahrenheit.
whence it issues in the form Of elastic
sheets. The lHrtntor.

A Novelist on s3atrimony.

If ever one is TO pray, if ever one is
to feel grave and anxious. if ever one
is to shrink from vain show and vain
babble, surely it is just on the occasion
of two human beings binding them
selves to one another, for better and
for worse. till death part them. The
two people most concerned. especially
the bridegroom, are on such a day
willing enough to shrink from vain
show and vain babble, but their friends
and relatives insist on trotting them
out and making them show their PAGES.
Indeed, for a man of shy or nervous
temperament to be married without
chloroform is painful operation. He
may be a strong man, but he feels like
Sampson when. for the sake of wom-
an whom he loved, he allowed his eyes
to be put out, and heard the Philistines
calling upon him to make sport for
them. Oa,Ga.
