Silvering Iron.

A new process for silvering articles
of iron is thus described: The article
is first plunged in pickle ofhot diluted
hydrochloric acid, whence it is re-
moved to a solution of nitrate, and con-
nected with the zinc pole of Bunsen
element. gas carbon or platinum serv-
ing as the other pole. 1t is rapidly
covered with a layer of quicksilver,
when il is removed, washed, and trans
ferred to silver bath and silvered.
by heating to 300 degrees c. (572 de-
grees Fah.) the mercury is driven off,
and the silver firmly fixed on the
iron. To save silver the wire
can be first covered with layer of tin.
One part of cream of tartar is dissolved
in eight parts of boiling water, and one
or more tin anodes are joined with the
carbonc pole of Bunsen element The
zinc pole communicates with a we'll
cleaned piece of copper, and the battery
is made to act till enough tin has depos-
tied on the copper, when this is taken
out and the ironware put in its place.
The wire thus covered with tin chemic-
ally pure, and silvered, is said to be
much cheaper than any other silvered
metals.

1t is not, perhaps, a far-fetched sug-
gestion that we may detect a good deal
of natural character in the idioms en-

Thus the English. who are always busy

you do?n The Frenchmen, who are
always thinking of their appearance and
OF the impression they may make by
their department, ask: How do you
carry yourself?" The German, whose
wits are apt TO be wandering in "A maze
of speculation, inquiries: How do
you find yourself?" The Italian, who.
when in good health, stands easily and
moves gracefully, deems it the most
pertinent question TO ask: ''IIow do
you stand?' or How do you go?" An
other curious fact is that the southern
and catholic nations always say: Il
believe so, where the northern and
protestant nations would say: Il think
So" 1t is as if the former took every
thing on trust as matter of belief,
while the latter refer everything to
their own reason, and accept Il as "a
matter of opinion. The Romans seldom
gave token of assent by means of a
simple particle like our Eyes, but usu-
ally answered by reafiirming the ques-
toners proposition. Thus to the in

THERE is general impression pre-
valent that all gold is alike when re-
fined, but such is by no means the
case. An experienced man can tell at
a glance from what part of the world
a gold piece comes, and in some cases
from what part of particular gold
district the metal was obtained. The
Australian gold. for instance, is dis
tinctly redder than the Californian,
and this difference in color is always
perceptib!e, even when the gold is
1000 fine. Again the gold obtained
from the placers is yellower than that
which is taken directly from quartz.

A THEORY is current among some
philosophers that person can gradu-
ally grow to look like his or her most
intimate companions. Thus husbands
and wives often grow to resemble each
other. girls not related TO each other
after years OF intimate association by
dressing alike and thinking alike have
been known to grow to look alike.
Hunters and stockmen who have made
companions of their dogs or stock have
gradually grown TO look like them. To
associate with the beautiful and employ
the mind with thoughts that are eleva-
ting are other means of changing feat
ures that may have been warped by
