MANUFACTURE OF MIRRORS.

A Trade That Has Many Closely Guarded

Probably few Of those who find the

Of the most closely guarded secrets in

high authority that, simple as would
seem the few processes required, even
those who have worked for years on
one portion Of the production know

are but few manufactures in the coun-
try; in fact, in all the great manufact-
uring region lying between New York
and Chicago but one firm produces
plateglass mirrors.
So closely is the secret of fine mirror
making kept, it is said, that many Of
the most valuable processes are not
even covered by patent, the procuring
of which would be attended with more
or less publicity, wen in those cases
where patent might legally be claimed,
and the knowledge lives close locked in
the breasts Of but very few people in
the whole country.

THE WAVES ON THE HAReoR BAR

Oh. the rosy waves on the harbor bar
Laugh and blush; as the rising tide
Comes pulsing in from realms afar.
Comes dancing in from the ocean vide,
And the fisherman huns a quiet tune,
As sweet as a song of a brook In June.
That dreamily sings 20 the little flowers.
As they drowse on its banks thro' :he sunht
hours;
And be smiles as he drifts in his boat AfAr.
Past the rosy waves on the harbor bar.
Oh. the golden waves on the harbor bar
Dance like the light Of loves young dream.
A the families tide from realms afar
Comes ripping In with its sunny gleam-
From a little cottage there peers a face
AS sweet as a violet's quiet grace;
And, with cheeks like the heart Of a sunlit
rose.
She watches his boat as it seward goes,
And he waves his hand a. he flies afar.
Past the golden waves on the harbor bar.
Oh. the fierce white waves on the harbor bar
Seethe and roar as the maddened tide
Comes bowling In from the sea afar,
Comes laundering In from the ocean wide.
Gazing seward with aching eyes,
she raises her hands 10 the leaden skies
Asking the life ca one whose name
Brings % her cheeks the touch Of flame;
And with tear bl nd eyes she looks afar.
Past the fierce white waves on the harbor bar
OH. the leaden waves on the harbOr bar
sob as they r Il 10 the surf grit strand,
Moaning for " -ecks they have wrought afar.
For desOlats hearths on sea and land.

As a fishing smack tears her way thrO' Tia

And the tide comes swinging from realms afar

Formerly the back of the glass was
coated with mercury or quicksilver,
from which the name Of the process
was derived, but the name is now even
more true. since the backs of fine mir.
rors are generally coated with sheets Of
pure silver-or it would be more proper
to say that they are backed with a
plate Of silver. This is a great improve
ment in many ways, to say nothing OF
the economy in the use Of quicksilver.
Not a few good housewives will recall
how provoking it has been to find that
a patch Of the coating had peeled from
the mirror in the spare room, " the
loss not being discovered till a valued
and perhaps slightly critical guest was
expected as an occupant for that very
room. and when there was no time, and
perhaps not the means, to replace the
now worthless looking glass. This can
not happen, Of course, when the back
ing is a solid sheet of metal. Another
advantage is in the greater reflective
powers Of the pure silver as now pre-
pared. Formerly a reflection of two
thirds the light received was a very
n~attering result, and as low as 60 per
cent. was satisfactory; now at least
IS per cent. of the light is reflected
from first class glasses. Newton Nor

while the Electric Lights Were Out.
A story comes TO me from Athens
which is almost too good 70 be true, but
quite to- good TO be withheld. The
privy council had a meeting in the room
set apart for them in the glazing, white
succeed palace. II was evening, and
the president had just risen TO address
his colleagues, laying, according to
custom. his gold watch on the table in
front Of him. so that he might mark
time. Suddenly the electric light went
out, but after a short interval returned.
Then the president discovered that his
watch. which was a present from his
royal master. was missing. He lament
ed. and invited his colleagues TO replace
the watch, but there was no response.
He reminded them that the door was
locked and that the watch must be in
the possession of one of them. He next
put each member on his word Of honor
TO say that he had not il; which little
performance was promptly got through.
The president then remarked that the
situation had become embarrassing
but as he wished &c make things easy
for the culprit, who had doubtless
yielded to temptation in a moment OF
weakness. he would order the lights tc
be again extinguished in order to give
him an opportunity Of restitution
This was done; and when the lights
were turned on the president found that
not only had he no watch, but that be
had also lost his silver inkstand Van.
