Origin Of the Grossbeak.

There has always been a dispute in
regard to the pretty CROSSROADS which
have visited this city in large locks
nearly every winter for ten or twelve
years past. 1t has been claimed that
they originated from a number of the
birds of this species brought here in a
ship from China and turned loose by Mr..
Walter Motfet. Others claim that the
birds are natives OF this country, and are
Identical with the evening grossbeak of
the Middle States. Among the birds
brought over on the Coloma, from Hong
Kong, to be turned loose here, are a
number of these grossbeaks, which goes
to prove that the theory that the iocks
here originated from birds brought from
China by Walter Moifet is the true one.
Old residents say that there were no such
birds here in carly days. 1t is scarcely
possible that they have emiglated here
over the Rocky Mountains. -Portland

FIRED Gold Pens.

"There, that pen is tired aud will
have to rest q month or So"
The speaker was the mortgage clerk
Of oneof the principal savings banks in
this city, aud as he spoke he carefully
wiped a large gold pen and put it away
in a case.
A Post reporter, who had just entered
the bank to have some back dividends
entered in his book, overheard the re-
mark and smiled.
ooh, you needn't laugh" said the
clerk, ssfor it is the true business I am
telling you. Gold pens have to rest now
and then. Here l have, I suppose, two
dozen gold pens. If / use n for sew
eral weeks or so / find it will not write
TO nv satisfaction. Sometimes it is too
soft and sometimes it is too hard, or the
ink does not seem to flow well.
ssFor a long time | could not find out
what the matter was, but at last / went
to a jeweler, who, after examining my
pens, said, Give them q rest and they
will be as good as new
He then explained that the constant
use of the pen had the same effect on the
metal as Is the case when a razor is used
with great frequency.
aSome sort of the electromagnetic &C.
ton takes places in the metal, which has 9
tendency to bring into parallel lines all
the particles, and in that condition a
razor cannot be made to hold edge, and
a pen is equally refractory.
IF the razor is laid aside for a time
the particles of metal gradually resume q
more or less confused arrangement and
razor takes on and retains a keen edge.
1T is the same way with agold pen.
Now, if when one of my pens gets to
acting bad | lay it aside for a month or
20 it will be all right again. That's why
{ said that pen was tired and wanted q
rest.-San Francisco Post.

A Brush Making Machine.

A simple-looking machine for brush
drawing, knot picking, and trimming
was shown yesterday in Parlor K of the
Astor House. Hitherto brushes have
been made by hand, and the new machine
is calculated to save much time. 1t will
make brushes twice as fast as they can be
made by hand. A boy or girl fifteen
wears old can run it, and it is asserted the
brushes can be drawn more perfectly than
by hand. The machine rests on a table.
A wheel containing the wire is run by a
treadle.
The wire is carried over to and through
a hollow needle worked by hand, which
is suspended from a support in front of
the wise in which the block is placed. A
clamp in the handle can be used to draw
in the material when small work is to be
done.
Back of tine wise are adjustable shears
which can be set for any length OF brush.
The block is put in the wise. 1t remains
there till the brush is complete. The ma
chine was patented last February. -New

Musical Fish of CeyI0n.

Every bay and inlet on the coast OF
CeyIon abounds with musical fish. Their
song, if it can be called a song, is not
one sustained note like a birds, but a
multitude Of tiny, soft, sweet sounds,
each clear and distinct in itself, some
thing like the vibrations Of a wineglass
when its rim is rubbed with the moist
ened finger. In the harbor at Bombay,
India, there isa fish with a song like the
sound produced by an Eolian harp

STACKING sHEAvEs.

I have stacked much grain In my day,
says Galen Wilson, and n Of it be-
came wet in the stack. Begin by. setting
two bundles on end, leaning together at
an angle of about twenty degrees, then
continue around and around until tho
stack-bottom IS large enough. The
centre sheayes should be dressed in as
closely together as possible. As the
circle enlarges each succeeding
should be given q little more slant, 50
that when the last course is laid it will
have but a slight slant. The stack-hot-
tom Is then highest in the middle This
r,le ii followed until the stack is flushed.
AS the laying proceeds from the centre
the sheayes should be laid less closely in
q diminishing degree, 50 that the stack
will settle least IN the centre. After the
fist course the stacker should be on his
knees and press down every sheaf.
When the foundation is abbut SIX feet
high the outside tiers of sheaves must,
be laid to project a little over the ones
Immediately beneath, to give the stack
the proper bulge, that the water may be
conveyed away from the base. The
outer courses when being sslaid OUT
must be secured or some may slide when
considerable weight presses upon them.
GRASP each sheaf with both hands,
raise the heads-end almost perpendicular
and s.chnck the butt end into the butt
III the one beneath, then lower and push
out to place; the ends Of some OF the
gtravs, catching into the sheaf beneath,
hold it from sliding out. ! continue
this practice when stdrawing in" to stop
out. A good man Is needed to pitch
from the wagon to the 4 on tue stack
who pitches To the stacker. The sheaves
should be thrown within reach OF the
latter. who has 20 move around as the
stacker does. The wagon should not be
lnloadea from the same side of the stack
twice III succession. The pitching-oH
should be done AL around 70 prevent
hacking down The sheaves more IN one
mace than another. The stack pitcher
should not stand ii one place longer than
two minutes, but keep moving g difTer-
eat circles about the centre. His place
Il never nearerthan six b eight feel 20
the edge OF the stack. Keep the centre
full. keep it pressed solid and even, and
then the stack will settle sauareiy.
Stacked thus, seares will turn water q
readily dis i duck s back. For . stack q
twenty-five feet diameter the centre
should be kept four fest higher than the
onter edge.-Nap York Tribune.
