Gen. Grants Grudge.

About seventy years or so ago two
boys OF seven and nine years were
playing on the banks of swollen
stream in Ohio. One of them fell in
and was rescued from drowning by the
other. In 1877 Gen. Grant wrote from
Nice to Admiral Ammen: "Of counsel
told them that l owed you an old
grudge as being responsible for the
many trials and difficulties had passed
through in the last half century; for
nearly that length Of time ago you res

Cut each disk open from the circumference
to the center with a pair of scissors Paint
one with red yermillion, one with emerald
green and another with aniline violet, Civ.
ing thick co 1t, and then, while the colors
are drying, make a disk Of thick pasteboard
and cut hole in the middle, 80 that it will
slip tightly over the leg of the top. When
these are ready take the red and green disks
and hold them side by side, with the cut
places opposite, and slip one into the other,
and then turn them round so that the green
covers the red. Then put them both on
the leg OF the top and put the pasteboard
disk under them to hold them in place
Now If you hold the top upright in plate
and make 1t spin you will see beautiful
ring of green color around the spinning
top.
Such n top may be made to spin in a
dinner plate on the table by winding a
string round the leg and then pulling it
away with the right hand, while the top is
held upright with the left.
When it stops. take Off the pasteboard
and revolve the colored disks one on the
other so that half Of the red and half Of the
green can be seen, and instantly you have
a ring Of yellow Move the disks so as to
display one-quarter green and three-quar-
tiers yellow and you get deep orange
ring. Move again and let the green hide
nearly all the red, and the top shows a
greenish yellow ring
In the same way combine the green and
violet disks and the spinning top will show
new shade Of blue for every proportion
In which green and violet are mixed.
Put on the red and violet visks and pur-
pie will be shown. Put on the red, green
and violet so that one-third Of each is
shown, and the ring will be gray.
This simple toy serves 10 show how three
colors may be combined TO form every
color in the solar spectrum. Red, green
and violet may be tinted with other colors

The Political Mrs. Grundy.

The political Mrs. Grundy is phantom
conjured by the apprehension Of "A politi-
clan Of what he supposes to be the opinion
Of the people or Of a party. The inevitable
result Of the apprehension is to regard that
general opinion rs mean and unntelligent,
so that the politician Is often trying to con-
form to n standard that he despises In
stead Of asking what does the public ad-
vantage require and what ought to be done,
he wonders what he can do that will alien
ate the least votes. Statesmanship, he
says. consists in doing what you can, not
what you would.
But the fault Of that apothegm Is its
vagueness. You know what you would,
but no man until he tries knows what he
can. 1t is certain that you can do safely
what u generally approved. But the vital
condition Of progress is that somebody
shall go first. The forward step Is not
generally approved until IL is taken, and
in arguing that II ought not to be taken
until it Is generally approved, you forget
that taking it is the way to secure sp-
proval.
The important point is not what Mrs
Grundy says, but what she ought TO say

A Curious Property of the Diamond.

Mr. George f. Kuntz, well known as an
expert in gems, recently called attention in
the New York Sun, to n property Of the
diamond, which may be employed as a
means Of distinguishing it from other sub
stances Experiments made by Mr. Kuntz
demonstrate that the statement (made by
Robert Boyle as long ago AS 1868 that
some diamonds phosphoresce in the dark
after exposure TO the sunlight or an electric
arc light, is true, also that all diamonds
emit light by rubbing them on wood cloth
or metal. This property will probably
prove Of great value in distinguishing DO
tween the diamond and other hard stones,
RS we'll as paste, none Of which exhibit this
phenomenon, and will be welcomed by the
general public who do not possess the ex-
perience Of the dealer in diamonds. The
property is evidently not electric. or it
would not be visible on being rubbed on
metal

BY THE MORNING LIGHT.

Oh, glad and red, the light of morn
Across the field Of cattle broke.
And showed the waste Of trampled corn
And smoldering farmsteads wrapned ir
smoke;
Ana cold and stark the soldier lay,
shot down beside his shattered gun:
And grimly splashed with blood and CLAW
His face looked CHASTITY in the sun.
Oh, glad and red, the morning sbone
In happy England far away,
Where knelt bright haired little one
Beside her mothers knee to pray.
And prompting each fond faltering word.
The soldiers wife was glad and smiled:
she knew not twas a widow heard
The prattle of an orphan child.
Oh, glad and red, oh, glad and red
The morning light glowed everywhere;
AND one beam touched the father dead.
And one the child who knelt in PRAYER;
And from the trampled corn and clay
A skylark sprang with joyous breast,
For shot and shell had spared that day
Its four brown eggs and little nest.

Tho Decomposition of Light beautifully
illustrated by "a -"CoIor Top"
For the experiment to be described a
common iron top, such as may be found in
toy shops, is employed 1t may have either
curved handle, like the one here repre-
sented, or straight handle. Just under
the fiat part of the disk are two or three
round pieces OF drawing paper, and under
these is thick disk of pasteboard Each
OF these has hole in the center, so that it
can be slipped over the leg of the top In
some tops, however, it may be easier to put
these disks above on the handle.
1t Is for the entertaining and instructive
use OF such top as this that Professors
Mayer and Barnard give. the following di
rections In their work on "Light;"

out three disks. each four inches in diane

To deodorize bottles that have CON
tanned benzine, thymol, naphthol and
other similar strong smelling substances,
a simple and effectual plan is 30 pour into
each a small portion Of mixture Of sui
phuric and nitric acids, and allow it to
flow over all parts Of the interior. After It
has been left for about an hour in the bot
ties, which are occasionally taken up and
turned about so that all parts Of the inter
nal surface are attacked by the acid, it will
be found, says Popular Science News, that
a good rinsing with plain water will leave
them as good as new
