How CeIluloid Is Manufactured.

While every body has heard of,
or seen, or used celluloid, only few
persons know what it is composed of
or how it is made. The following
is description of the process car
ried out in n factory near Paris
for the production of celluloid:
A roll of paper is slowly unwound, and
at the same time saturated with mix
ture of five parts of sulphuric acid and
two parts of nitric acid, which falls up
on the paper in u fine spray. This
changes the cellulose OF the paper into
propylin 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 a strainer, the pulp is
mixed with from 20 to 40 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, a second
mixing and grinding follow. The fine
ly divided pulp is then spread out ia
thin layers on slabs, and from twenty
to twenty-five ofthese layers are placed
in a hydraulic press, separated from
one another by some sheets OF thick
blotting paper, and are subjected to
pressure of $50 atmospheres, until all
traces of moisture have been got rid of.
The matter is then passed between 14O
deg. and $50 deg. Fahrenheit, whence
it issues in the form of elastic sheets.

A Shrewd Otter.

In the last number of the Forest and
Stream a hunter tells a good story Of
an otter and a duck:
One day as l was standing on the
shore of Cranberry Bog Pond I saw q
large flock of ducks near The middle of
the pond, and soon after discovered
three offers in front of me, but not near
enough to shoot While watching the
maneuvers OF the offers, they started
down the pond in a straight line for the
ducks. The old leader struck out live
ly, leaving his mates far behind, and as
he neared the ducks he dived, and
presently / saw one of the ducks disap-
pear beneath the surface after a con-
siderable struggle, the remainder OF
the flock rising and flying away in
great commotion. The otter had gone
under the flock and selected certain
duck and pulled him under A few
minutes later the otter made his APP
pearance near the south shore OF the
pond with the duck in his mouth.

LEES WANDERERS.

Pass on, O tired wandcrer,
Upon thy lonely way:
Thou must not pause a moment
Till the closing Of the day.
Out there, upon thy pathway,
But the land is white with snow,
But ever. ever onward,
Thy weary feet must &c.
Why dost thou stand here, wauderer,
And weep with bitter fear!
Why dost thou not 60 brayely on,
Without q sigh or tear.
Dost thou not know, o wandercr,
That just beyond thy sight
The soft, green grass is growing,
And the san shines warm and bright
And when at last, thou scest
Gold and purple in the west,
Thou mayst lie down, o wandcrer,
To long, long, peaceful rest!
And thou will know Of grander things,
When thou wakest from thy sleep;
Then, wandcrer, thou wilt wonder
Why it was that thou didst weep
Pass OIL, pass on, . wanderer,
Upon thy toilsome way.
Thou wilt rest in peace and happiness
At the closing of the day.

JAMES {. FLOODS late residence is
the most magnificent in San Francisco,
and it fairly rivals those of the Wander
bits. 1t required four or FIVE years to
build il, all OF the brownstone, of which
it is chiefly constructed, having been
transported from the Atlantic coast
1t was not completed until the latter
part of 1856. The site is on the very
top of Gristocratic Mob Hill, fronting
California street, and overlooks the
whole OF the city, the bay and the
Golden Gate. The most lavish expcndi-
ture is noticeable in every detail OF its
finish and exterior appointments.
Special agents were employed in
Europe without limit or cost TO buy
pictures TO adorn its walls. A 2ondcs.
SO bronze railing surmounts the gran
tic enclosure of the broad grounds
surrounding it, and the cost of this
work of art, which is the only thing of
the kind in this country west of tho
Mississippi, was about 100000. The
designs for the gates were imported.
The total cost of the mansion and its
accessories Il said 10 haze been about

Walter Scott,s Works.

Never was there more healthful and
health ministering literature than that
which Scott gave to the world, says
Andrew ID. White in Scl.ibner's Maga-
zine. To go back to it from Flaubert,
and Daudet, and Tolstui, is like listen
ing to the song of the lark after the
shreiking passion OF the midnight
pianoforte may, il IS like coming out
of the glare and hsat and reehing
vapor of palace ball into grove in
the first light and music and breezes of
the morning. 1t is not for nothing that
SO many thousands have felt toward
Scott deep personal gratitude, which
few, if any, other writer's OF English
fiction have ever awakened.

To Cook Dried Fruit.

1t may seem like broad, sweeping
assertion, says tho American Analyst,
when VIC state that nine out of every
ten persons who undertake to cook
dried fruit make positive failure.
The usual method followed Is u very
poor one, tn It OF selecting the fruit to
be eaten at lunch, dinner or tea two or
three hours prior to usirg it. rinsing
it in a little water, then placing it in
water and allowing it to remain to soak
for two or three hours only, then pour
ing off the water in which the fruit was
soaked and applying fresh water, put
ting it on the stove and cooking it thor
oughly. Such a manipulation as this
is calculated TO produce the poorest
possible result, if it does not actually
ruin the fruit. Many people consider
dried fruits hardly worthy of their
time and attention, from the fact that
after repeated trials they find so little
of value-the fruit having lost it's orig
inal flavor is tasteless and not at all
palatable. II the following method for
cooking dried fruit is followed, n
directly opposite result will be realized.
Select the fruit that you intend to use,
rinse it thoroughly in clean, clear
water, then place the fruit to soak in
an earuhern dish. with sufficient water
to cover it, from ten to fifteen hours be-
fore requiring it for use. Then place
it Oh the back of the stove in the same
water in which it has been soaked,
which contains the flavor and nutrition
soaked out of the fruit, and allow it to
simmer slowly, just coming to a boil
occasionally until it is entirely cooked
through, add sugar as tho occasion re-
quires to make it palatable. 1t can be
served either hot or cold as you desire;
as a rule, if it is placed one side and
allowed TO cool, it will be fully as
palatable. BY this method you will Sc
cure wholesome, palatable dish, fully
favored, and resembling in appearance.
size, taste and flavor the original green
product, as near as is possible.

Tennessee and Eastern North Carolina,
Alabama and Mississippi. The best
grade comes from Virginia, and they
are known as ''goubers;" in Alabama
and Mississippi as ''pinders. :" Dealers
say that no Improvements have been
made in the peanut farms; they are just
what they were thirty years ago, all
though the peanut trade has doubled In
nine years. The farms are small, and
the crops are cared for by negroes.
The nuts are planted in hills about a
foot apart, in rows about two and ONE
half feet apart, and are harvested by
blowing and turning over with long
handled forks; this shakes off the dirt,
when the vines are gathered and shock
ed about pole, where they are left to
dry, the vines being so placed as to
protect the nuts from the rain; mildew-
ed nuts turn black, and are less salable
though the nuts may be as sweet. A
dealer says, in the New York Evening
Post, that 1.-The shocks, after they have
been built up, arc left standing for
several weeks, until the nuts are quite
dried and cured. They are then
stripped from the vines by hand, packed
in bags, and carried to the middleman
who handles them for tho farmer. By
the middleman the nuts are taken to
the top floor of the factory, and are
secured and polished by rubbing
against each other in long revolving
iron cylinder. Spouts carry them,
after cleaning, to the second floor,
where they are run through tanning
mill. From the mill they arc deliver
ed on to an endless apron, made of
Stats hinged together, and as they
travel along on this girls sitting on
each side sort them into grades. The
nuts are then put into sacks and arc
ready for shipping. They are brought
to New York mostly by steamers, al
though some come by rail. They are
sold here as .Wilmingtons,' .Vir-
giniaus,' Tennessee and Spanish
The last variety was formerly grown
in Spain, but is now raised in Virginia
TO good advantage. The grades arc
known as fancy handpicked,' extra
and choice The screen
ings are the poorest nuts, and these are
bought by vendors at county fairs and
mixed in with a better grade"
Peanuts are shipped to all parts of
this country and to the West Indies,
but no trade has been developed with
Europe. This limited trade, however,
to five million dollars per
wear.

Salt OH Their Tails.

Last week, Hermann, the magician,
was standing with half q dozen gentle
men near one of the trees in front oil
Williards hotel. The branches were
full OF chattering English sparrows.
Said Mr.. Herman: Il cut zis from a
newspapaire about how to eat re spar

Take a fat little bird by the beal1,
sprinkle little salt over it, take out
| the gullet, put the bird cleverly into
your mouth, bite him off closely to
your fingers and chew him manfully;
the result viii be an abundance of juice

the gentlemen, .but how are you going

and flew up to a limb, where he
smoothed his feathers and looked very
mad.
Il will catch anodder," said Herr
mann, and, making another grasp, Sc
cured another sparrow; this time a
hen.
Presently he let her go, and said:
"Now | will try TO catch two sparrows

took in his hand with two sparrows in
it.
