tor more than as funny man. Because
Judge Collins has attracted attention as
a lecturer in this direction, it must not
be conceived by those unacquainted with
his work that his jokes are Egyptian
like. As writer of short humorous
stories he has met with wide favor, and
book of his sketches issued last sum-
mer had a ready sale. He has also writ
ten much poetry, both serious and comic.
Mr.. Collins was born in 1859, and
passed most of his boyhood on a farm.
He learned to be telegraph operator,
and then a typesetter, after which the
natural bent of his mind led him into
the laugh making field. In addition to
writing humorous matter he was sue
cessively editor of several Connecticut
and New Jersey papers, after which he
enjoyed brief business career, until he
took his place on the staff of Texas Sift-
ings. He has travelled extensively, and
is thoroughly familiar with western life,
devotee of outdoor exercise, a good
shot, and personally very popular among
his friends.

light. Recently a French firm has pro-
duced platinized mirrors which, it is claim.
ed, are not only satisfactory in point OF
brilliancy but are as permanent as the
glass itself.
A thin film Of metallic platinum is de-
posted upon the glass by precipitation
from solution Of the chloride, by oil of
lavender and afterward burned in by heat
ing the glass nearly to redness in muffle,
thus Incorporating the rejecting surface
into the glass itself.
A popularity of this coating of platinum
is its extreme thinness, which readily al
lows light to be transmitted through 1t.
Thus if the light falls upon the mirror
from the 'front.' it will be reflected back
again the same as in an ordinary mirror,
but if the source of the light is behind the
plate of platinized glass the rays will be
transmitted to the observer standing be-
fore it, as if it was a plate of ordinary
glass. The Illustrations from La Nature
show an amusing application of this prin-
ciple. The mirror, explains The Popular
Science News. is placed in front of niche
containing a grotesque head, and which

matics and classics for several years en-
tered Princeton seminary, and graduated
therefrom in 1848. For some time he
was pastor of the Central Presbyterian
church of Philadelphia. In 1851 he ac-
cepted the professorship of Oriental and
Old Testament literature in Princeton
seminary, and has held the chair for
forty years.
DR.. Green is regarded as the highest
authority in the United States on con-
servative criticism of the Bible. Be-
sides his work as an instructor he has
published Hebrew Chrestomathy,
Moses and the Prophets" "The Hebrew
Feasts," and several other books. He
was member of the committee on
the revised version of the Bible, and
one of the translators of Lange's Com
mentary."
The general assembly postponed the
great question of the revision of the
Westminster Confession, which has
given the church at large so much con-
cern of late years, until its next meeting.

The Longest Day.

1t is quite important, when speaking of
the longest day in the year, to say what
part of the world you are talking about
The latitude of place changes the length
Of the day to a remarkable extent. At
Stockholm, Sweden, it is eighteen and one
half hours in length. At Spitzbergen the
longest day is three and one-half months
At London, England, and Bremen. Prus-
sia, the longest day has sixteen and one
half hours. At Hamburg, in Germany, and
Dantzig, in Prussia, the longest day has
seventeen hours At Wardoe, Norway, the
longest day lasts from May 81 to June "a
without interruption. At st. Petersburg,
Russia, and Tobolsk, Siberia, the longest
dayis nineteen hours and the shortest five
hours. AT Tornea, Finland, June 81 brings
a day nearly twenty-five hours long, and
Christmas one less than three hours in
length. At New York the longest day
is about fifteen hours, and at Montreal,
Canada, it is about sixteen hours.

The Steam Engines of the world.

The steam engines of the world repre-
sent approximately, says The Manufactur-
ers' Gazette, the working power of 1,0OO,-
100000 of men, or more than double the
working population of the world, the total
population of which is usually estimated
at l, ass, ,923, 900 inhabitants. Steam has ac-
cordingly enabled man to treble his work
ing power, making it possible for him to
economize his physical strength while at
tending to his intellectual development.

How Fish Hooks Are Made.

The Industrial World tells how fish hooks
are made. There is little machine which
turns out fish hooks in six strokes. Stroke
No. bites off morsel of steel wire; No. 2
makes the loop where you fasten your line;
No. 8 hacks the other end; No. fattens
and bends back the barb; No. makes the
point; No. 8 bends the wire-and your fish
hook drops into a little bucket ready to be
finished. Then it is either japanned- these
are the common black fish hooks-or they
are tempered to the delicate blue that you
sometimes see in cutlery. For this finish
they are heated red hot and then cooled in

A Botanical Curiosity.

At meeting of the Royal Botanic socie-
ty the secretary brought to the notice of
members a portion of large poplar lately
blown down in the gardens, showing net
work of roots running almost round the
trunk, between the bark and wood, at some
distance from the ground. The plant had
apparently derived it's nourishment, not
