How CIcthespins are Made.

II there is one article that is an abso-
lute necessity to a housekeeper it is a
clothespin, and the following facts in
regard to that useful article are inter-
esting
"Clochespins," said a dealer, care
made in the lumber regions of Michigan
and Vermont. They are usually of white
ash, but we have them of beach, birch
and maple. The wood is taken to the
factory in logs and cut into lengths Of
thirty one inches by circular saws. These
are then cut into blocks which are re-
duced to sticks, then placed under an
other saw and reduced to clothespin
lengths. Next the turner takes hand
at them and from him they go to the slat-
ting machine. They are placed in troughs
by the operator, the machine picking
them up and Stating them. Then they
arc placed in a revolving pipe drier,
going thence to the polishing cylinder.
Each pin passes through eight hands.
"a single plant consists of a board
saw, gang splitter, gang chunker, turn
ing lathe, drying house and poisher,
and costs from $40, 900 to $40, 900. The
little blocks of wood, five and half
inches long, are placed on an endless
belt. which feeds the blocks automatic
allv into the lathe. As the lathe is
turned the pin is taken automatically
from the spindle and placed on turn
table and carried to a circular saw, which
whites out the slat into pin. 1t is
then finished and thrown out Of the turn
table by the same appliance that puts the
pins on the table. Falling, they are
caught in a basket or barrel, and are
taken to the drying-house to remain
twelve hours or until dry. The polish
ing cylinder holds from twenty to forty
bushels. This is run at slow speed,
about thirty turns a minute, and by
simple friction and contact they become
polished. They are sold to the trade at
a little over 81 bushel, and packed in
boxes of four to the bushel. The indus
try is an increasing one, and almost
81, 900, 900 worth of pins were manu-
featured last year."-NsO York. Tels-

The Largest Tree in the World.

The largest tree in the world has just
been discovered in Fresno Couuto, Cal.
Frank Loomis. an old mountaineer, and
party returned recently to Sanger from q
bear hunting expedition in the Sierras.
They wounded bear, aud in pursuing
it ran across big tree in the most rugged
portion Of the mountains, about two
miles north of Kentucky Meadows. This
monarch of the forest was circumscribed
by q radius Of a mile or more Of almost
impenetrable underbrush, so that the
hunters were compelled to use both knife
aud ak to reach the centre. 1t is cer-
tain that no man has ever traversed the
same ground. The tree was measured
about four feet from the ground and
rope, 129 feet inches long was neces-
sary to span its circumference. = Chicago

The Music of the Chinese.

Have the Chinese exerted any influence
on the progress of music9 asks the Bos-
ton Musical Herald. At first sight it
it would seem to be impossible for M.
ton delighting in a series of what seems
to us to be dissonances, to have had any
connection with an art so harmonious as
our own. But this is a rather seeming
difference than a real one. If music be
the art of exciting the emotions by COM
binations of sounds, then the Chinese
discords must also be ranked as music,
for they certainly do arouse the deepest
emotions in the Celestials. The ancient
Chinese knew far more of the principles
of music than the civilized Greek or Ro-
mans even, but as usual with the discov-
cries of this self-isolated race, the found
ing of a system Of musical laws did not
benefit the world any more than our
selves. Thus it was with printing, with
the compass and many other of the an
cient Chinese inventions and discoveries.
Yet it is probable that the Chinese were
the first nation to adopt and formulate a
system of notation.
Written music probably first began in
China. The principles of acoustics also
were first in existence in the Celestial
Empire. The full scale of chromatic
semitones was evolved by one Of th
Emperors 1000 years ago, yet the Ch'-
nese, actuated by that strange obliquity
which is characteristic of the nation, re-
ceived only five of the twelve tones into
their scale, holding the other seven to be
'female tones" and therefore useless.
The principle of the monochord was
probably known to them, and in some of
their instruments one can see the organ
foreshadowed. OF harmony, or part
writing, however, the Chinese know
nothing, and it is a good inferential
proof of the non-existence Of part music
among the ancient nations that the Chi
nese, in their ancient music books, speak
only Of melody, and seem to have dis.
dained tone combinations such as would
suggest the simplest chords.

below. In this way each punch cuts out
100 silver dollars or 200 dimes every
minute. The blanks thus made are
washed and then milled. This latter
process is simply to give each coin its
raised edge, and it is performed with
great rapidity by machines that compress
the edges of the coin toward their CEN
tres as the revolve about circular plane.
At this point the blank pieces are ready
for another process of annealing, to
soften them, in order that they may re-
ceive properly the impress of the die.
They are put by big pansful into an
oven and heated red hot Then they are
stirred about with scoops in big chemi-
cal bath to make them bright again, the
annealing having turned them black, and
upon being taken out Of the bath they
are poured into a revolving cylinder full
of Eastwood sawdust. When they come
out of the bath they look white, like so
many celuloid poker chips, but after be-
ing turned about in the cylinder with the
sawdust they are bright and shiny.
Now the blanks arc at last ready to be
stamped with Uncle Sans designs, which
make them worth one hundred cents on
the dollar, though their actual intrinsic
value is only lightweight cents at the
present rates for silver. The dies strike
off eighty coins a minute, printing both
sides at once and at the same time cor
rugating the edges prettily. Women
with deft fingers feed the blanks to the
machines, which strike them off and au-
tomatically dispose of one while they re-
ceiye another, dropping the competed
dollars or halves or quarters or dimes in
70 boxes beneath. All that remains to
be done is the counting of the coins,
which is performed with a celerity sim
ply marvellous by girl who thinks
nothing of counting $500 in thirty
seconds.
Gold coins are turned out in pretty
much the same way Washington Star

his body the temperature fell to normal,
and continued so for several hours; a
similar method was satisfactorily adopted

An Electric Piano.

A system has been invented by an
officer of the United States Navy by
which stringed musical instruments can
be operated by electricity. He produces
sound by the vibration Of stretched
wire in magnetic field. matchmaking
current is passed through the wire, and
vibrations are set up and continue SO
long as the current flows. The best re-
suits are gained where the current
is made and broken unevenly, as By rub
bing a terminal over coarse file. The
inventor proposes to apply his invention
in an electrical piano and also in sys-
TEN of multiple telegraphy. --NsU Yort

THE TONGUE.

SThe boneiesS tongue, so small and weak,
Can crush and kill, declared the Greek.
"Ths tongue destroys greater horde"
The Turk asserts, ''than does the sword"
The Persian proverb wisely saith,
"A lengthy tongue-an early death"
Or sometimes takes this form instead:
Don't let your tongue cut off your heal"
"The tongue can speak word whose speed, ~
Say the Chinese, ''outstrips the steed.p
While Arab sages this impart:
"The tongues great storehouse is the heart "
From Hebrew wit the maxium sprung,
"Though feet should slip, ne'er let the
tongue"
The sacred writer crowns the whole,
"Who keeps his tongue doth keep his soul"
