How TO Take Care Of a Carriage,

Comparatively few persons IN
derstand how to treat a carriage.
A finely vanished carnage re-
quires as much or even more care
for its preservation than a piece of
fine furniture in the house. 1t
should never be put away to stand
in dirty condition. In cleaning
a carriage avoid rubbing, but wash
of the dirt by stream thrown
from a hose or syringe whenever 1t
is practicable. Where mud has
dried on saturate a sponge and
squeeze it over the spots until 1t
has softened and run of. On the
wheels aud running gear soft
mop may be used, but always avoid
the use of anything that will cause
the grit in the mud to act like sand
paper on the varnish. think
there is nothing in which the effects
of neglect OF carelessness will show
sooner than IN the care that is
taken of nice carriage. In wash
ing a carriage keep it out Of the
sun, aud don't allow the water to
dry of itself and leave stains on
the vsrnish, but carefully absorb it
with some soft substance. An old
silk handkerchief is excellent for
the nicely polished work. Nuts
and bolts should be frequently
examined and not be allowed to
work loose, and all the bearings
shOold be sufficiently but not pro-
Glselg fabricated.

THUNDER AND LIGHTNING.

SOME INTERESTING FACTS RE.
GENTLY DEVELOPED.
One OF the best descriptions OF a
common natural phenomenon is
that recently given by NJ. Hirn, 10
which he says that the sound which
is known as thunder Is due simply
10 the fact that the air, trayersed
by an electric spaTk-that is, a
fash of lightning - is suddenly
raised to very high temperature,
and has its volume, moreover, con.
siderably increased. The column
OF gas thus suddenly heated and
expanded is sometimes several
miles long, and as the duration Of
the fash is not even a milll0nth OF
a second il follows that the noise
bursts at once from the whole
column, though tor an observer in
any one place it commences when
the lightning Is at the least dis
lance. In precise terms, according
to VI. Him, the beginning OF the
thunder clap gives us the minimum
distance of the lightning, aud the
length OF the thunder clap gives US
the length of the column. He also
remarks that when a fash Of light.
ming strikes the ground, it is not
necessarily from the place struck
that the first noise is heard. Again
he points out that a bullet whistles
IN traversing the air, so that we
can, to a certain extent, follow its
fight, the same thing also happen
ing with a falling meteorite just
before striking the earrh. The
actually heard has been compared
to the sound produced when one
tears linen. 1t is due really to the
fact that the air rapidly pushed on
one side in front of the proiectile,
whether bullet or meteorite, quick

"this Bible of yours says the very

Do you mean to tell me that some

"Of course not" replied the par
son who was not such meek man
as he looked to be "the text does
not mention bristles, even by In
ference"
And shortly aiterward the par
son, who had been riding on The
wood box, got seat, but the re-
ligious discussion was dropped

Monster Spiders.

Far up in the mountains Of
Ceylon and India there is a spider
that spins a web like bright yellow
silk, the central net OF which is five
feet in diameter, while the support.
ing lines or guys, as they are call
ed measure sometimes ten or twelve
feet long, and riding quickly in the
early morning you may dash right
into it, the stout threads twining
round your face like a lace veil,
while as the creature who has
woven it takes up his position in
the middle he generally catches
you right in the nose, and, though
he seldom bites or stiDgs, the
contact of bis large body is any
thing but pleasant. If you forget
yourself and try 10 catch him, bite
he will, and, though not venomous,
his Jaws are as powerful as a
birds beak, and you are not likely
to forget the encounter.
The bodies of these spiders are
very handsomely decorated, being
blight gold or scarlet underneath,
while the upper part Is covered
with the most delicate slste.colored
fur. So strong are the webs that
birds the size of larks are frequent

fortunate captive. He usually
throws the coil about the head, till

CAUSES a SENSATION IN A CON
FEDERATE CAMP.
We had gone into winter quar-
tiers near Richmond, says an ex.
Confederate. Every day an old
lady would drive out to the camp
in wagon loaded with cakes, pies
ETC., which she disposed of to the
half-famished soldiers at exorbitant
prices. One day she came out,
among other edibles was a "squlrrel
pie" about the size of a cheese
Several of our boys dubbed TO-
gether and bought it. The woman
pocketed the money and was wait
ing on some other customers. The
men had the pie about half con
sumed when the old lady's little
boy began to cry as if his heart
would break. The little fellow was
a favorite with the soldiers, and
of course, we tried to paciiy him
He would not tell US what he was
crying for. Finally the old lady''
patience was exhausted, and she
told the boy if he did no: tell the
men what he was crying about she
would take the wagon whip and
wear him out. With the tears still
streaming down his face he said
between his sobs; "Mam my

A BULL AND A BRASS BAND.

A gileyous disaster happened to
a brass band up near MORA the
other day. The band was band
of amateurs mostly, and the mem
bers were learning to blow into
the cornet and flute, and wrestle
with the ring.trumpet and the
cymbals, and pound the big drum
and the triangle, but being more
conscientious aud considerable than
musical amateurs usually are, they
took mp their brass fittings and
went far out into the leafy sOlitudes
to blow alone Sweet Home into
the startled atmosphere in great
tattered scraps and promiscuous
gobs, and snatch all the lugubriOus
bitterness ont of "The Last Rose
of Summer" and fill the district
with uncanny walls and quiyering
bitterness. They camped on the
side of hill hey Ond the ken OF
disinterested individuals. and
rugged their stands, shipped their
instruments, filled themselves with
wind, spread their legs and tackled
"Rob Roy McGregor, o." making
the wretched tune howl like a
lunatic asylum at the first snatch
then pulling it piecemeal, shaking
1t, and killing it by inches; and
the wild, weird clangOr buried
itself in the unsympathetic forest.
The band had got the tune under
and were fereely worrying it as
described, and the conductor was
shaking his stick and encouraging
his myrmidons to farther atrocities,
when a large black bull hove
violently over the hill, and charged
the congregation. There were a
laundering OF rushing hoOfs, a
heavy thud, a noise of cOntending
elements, a cloud of dust, then
momentary silence, while must
clans, and bassoons, and comets,
and bugles, and kettledrums we're
hurting in mid ar; then it began
10 ram melodious accessories and
instrumentalists, and presently,
when the band had pulled the
gplinters out of itself and wiped
It's eyes, it gazed reproachfully
down toward the valley, and saw
only swart bovine going rapidly
across country, encircled By a bass
drum, and bearing a trombone on
It's horns. The band rested a while
and swore then it took up Its
wreckage and wended sadly back
to town. There are some brass in
strumerts for auction.-MelbOarAe
