THE CARE OF FINE CUT GLASS.

II fine cut glass becomes furnished OF
blurred polish with a fine soft brush On
which is sifted very fine and soft whiting
and it will be restored to its original
beauty; or a very soft piece of newspaper
can be used to polish glass. Wet the
piece of newspaper slightly and gently
rub the glass. Be careful not to give the
frail thing a twist in rubbing it-that is,
carrying n hand in an opposite direc-
ton from the other, which is the quick
est way to break anything. After that
repeat the work with some dry, soft
paper. 1t is said that the printers ink
causes newspaper to give a finer polish
when cleaning glass than anything else.
However this may be, no lint remains,
and the polish is brilliant.
If fine cut-glass water bottles get dingy
inside rinse them occasionally with a
little muriatic acid and then rinse ia clear,
cold water very thoroughly. Muriatic
acid will remove stains or impurities,
aud greatly improve the brilliancy of the
glass. But ashes, sand or shot, which
many use to cleanse glass, scratch and
injure the glass and do not bring back
the original lustre. Besides, the lead in
shot is poisonous, and if any is left
through carelessness in the decanter il
might do great harm.-Br0oklya Citi.

Simple Explanation Of G~ravItatiOn

Gravitation is a subject that nearly
everybody is somewhat familiar with,
but there are some things about it that
you may not know. For instance, sup
pose you were weighed at the top Of a
deep coal mine, and afterward at the
bottom, do you suppose that there would
be any difference in the RESULT Yes,
there would. You would be lighter at
the bottom. II it were possible for you
to go on downward 1000 miles in the
earth, and there be weighed you would
probably be surprised to find your weight
only one-half of what 1t was at the sur
face; and if you could go to the center
of the earth you wouldn't weigh an
ounce.
This is because the center Of the earth
is the center of its attractive power,
which is eXerted equally IN all directions.
II you ascend from the surface Of the
earth, your weight will also decrease,
but not in the same ratio as when you
descend. In going upward the decrease
will be in proportion to the square of the
distance. Thus, while you would weigh
nothing if you should go downward 1000
miles from the surface, you would still
weigh one-fourth your actual weight il
you could weigh yourself 1000 miles W
in the air.
The law of gravitation is at once the
strangest and the most sublime In al
nature. Light travels at the amazing
rate of 1S6, 900 miles in a second. There
are visible stars so far away that if one
were blotted out at this instant it would
be seen on the earth thousands of years
hence, because rays of light, starting
now, would take so long to reach us, ever
at the wonderful velocity at which they
travel. But if a new star were now
placed out there in the depths of space.
where the blotted out one was, its at
tractive force would reach us instantly
That strange force which dominates the
universe would at once be felt, though
OF course, inappreciably, between the new
star and our earth.
Gravitation differs from all other forces
in another respect. The Intervention o
bodies in the line of attraction makes NJ
difference in the attractive force exerted
For example, when the moon comes int,
direct line between the earth and tn,
sun, there's not the slightest difference il
the reciprocal attraction between the TIVE
former. The enormous power of thi
attractive force is utterly inconceivable
We are constantly reminded of the powe
the earth exerts in pulling us downward
but think of the attractive power of
body like the sun, more than a million
times larger than the earth. And thi
power controls every speck of ligh
that we see in the heavens .-Philadel

The Organizer, an organ of the w. c. I.
U. says: "A prominent Chicago saloon wish
ing to increase its trade, recently began
pushing for customers among the boys. Fine
rooms for all kinds of games were fitted up
and invitations printed on postal cards were
sent to all the older boys in the ward. The
result was the rooms were soon crowded. 1t
was intended not to sell them liquors at first,
but to get them in the habit of spending the
evenings in the saloon, the owners well
knowing what the final result would be. The
good people whose boys were started on the
road to ruin. became alarmed, and tried to
break up this boys resort, but they soon
found that the saloon-keeper had a perfect
right to let in the boys if he did not sell TO
them. A Chicago Judge, in a recent sem
lance, defines the saloon-keeper's legal right
in this respect in the following language:
You may allow boys and children to fire.

apparent satisfaction with which their
seniors quaff the sparkling glass; youmay be

ioor is apt to be speedily trampled and
wasted; besides il is not wholesome for
hens to eat food thus polluted.
This is better also than chopping up
such food, for it saves the labor of chop
ping, and gives the hens some useful oc-
cupation and exercise, which is just as
important for their welfare as it is to
keep boys busy at some useful work or
harmless play, to prevent their getting
into mischief.

FRACTURE OF BONES OF ANIMALS.

Valuable horses and cattle may have
broken bones of the limbs set, dressed
and heal with Il considerable degree of
success. But in consequence of the
struggles of injured animals, whenever
secured by every known appliance of the
skilful surgeon, deformity from displace-
ment is the rule and not the exception.
The fore legs of valuable horses may be
set and dressed with Il fair degree of sue
cess where the proper appliances of the
veterinarian and his skill are secured at an
early hour after the accident has occurred.
There are stations doing good service
after having had a fore leg broken.
One that has had a broken leg is
a fine road horse, and a three-minute
horse will be compelled to take his dust
all day long, unless the driver of the
broken-legged stallion drives out of sight
of the slower horse. In every serious in
jury of animals we commend immediate
surgical advice, and If the case is incura-
bic have the animal put out of suffering.

Edward Everett Hale says in the Cosmc.
pOlitdn Magazine: l once asked the chief of
a great temperance home how one could
work to destroy the craving for liquor. He
looked at me with some surprise that a man
in my profession should ask such a question,
and said at once: mo man ever becomes
temperate himself unless he tries TO make
some one else temperate" In a fashion l
had know this, as every preacher OF Chris
tianity must know il; it is r. doctrine laid
down in the gosI els in a hundred forms, but
/ had never used il as a working formula nor
had l recommended it to other people as l
nave done since. Let me say this TO any per-
son trying to reform a relative or n friend.
You must introduce this desire TO help for
ward somebody else or your work will not
stand long. Your protege need not speak at
temperance meetings if he does not want TO,
but do you take care that he is doing some
thing in the general cause of purity-that he
is thinking of some one besides himself. We
do not attain purity by thinking of impur-
ity. We do not attain to temperance by
thinking of intemperance. Give him a high
motive and you have so far lifted him from
the plane on which he slipped and fell. An
old and wise friend, who is still living under
the not cold shadow OF four score and ten,
intoxicating practical morals, said to me
once; you are interestei in temperance; 1
will tell you how to save men from runken-
ness" And when eagerly asked the secret,

instruction if l had a man returned to me
from the Hous Of Correction after his tenth
confinement for the tenth spree which had
commanded the attention of the police, but
il involves an element which ought to be
more considered than it seems to be general,
ly. You want TO change the manner of life
of your patient as largely as you can,
especially you want to take him into the open
air if you can. The army in the Civil War
was, for the private, a school of temperance
l think most officers will agree with me in
this. For officers it was often. alasl aschool
of drunkenness, because they could order fol-
their own use liquors which their men could
not use. Butunder the absolute prohibition
which existed when an army was far from
any civilized post" and in the freedom and
freshness of the open air life, many a mar
learned practically a lesson which, before, he
had no opportunity 10 try. If L were the
dictator of this Nation there should be beef

RECIPES.

Good Cookies-One cup of molasses,
one cup of sugar, two eggs, two tea
~spoonfuls of soda, three tablespoonfuls
of vinegar, flour to roll soft. Nice for
children's school lunch.
Pigs Foot Cheese-Boil equal quanti-
ties of feet and hooks in a kettle until
very tender. Take out the bones, chop
the meat, season with salt and pepper
and press in a pan while warm. This is
excellent cut in slices and served with
Asauce or vinegar.
Baked Potatoes-Select potatoes of
even size, scrub them with a brush, wipe
with a cloth and place in q hot oven.
The moment they are done, squeeze each
one to burst its skin and allow the steam
to escape. If the potatoes are of a fine
variety this is an exceedingly delicate
way of cooking them. An overdone
baked potato is an abomination both to
the taste and to the digestion.
Souse-Clean and scrape the feet and
ears thoroughly; put in cold water and
set over the fire to boil. Boil until ten
der and the bones fall easily out, then
put in a jar. Make a pickle of one half
a gallon of vinegar, whole black pepper,
mace and cloves; boil these with the
vinegar, then pour over the pigs feet.
After they have stood two or three days
they will be ready for use.
Spanish Dumplings-Sift one pound
of wheat -four, make a hole in the center
and pour IN half of a two-cent cake of
compressed yeast dissolved in half a cup
of lukewarm water; let this stand until
the bubbles on the top show that it is
light. Add two tablespoonfuls of melted
butter, a teaspoonful of fine sugar and a
half %teaspooLful of salt; stir in milk
enough to make a dough that can be cut
with a knife without sticking. Sprinkle
the pastry-board with flour, turn out the
dough, and cut into pieces the size of a
small egg. Cever with a cloth and let
rise again. Then put a cup of milk in a
saucepan about ten inches in diameter,
flavor the milk with vanilla, drop in six
of the drmplings and cook for fifteen
minutes without raising the cover. Lift
out and serve with any sweet sauce.

TEMPERANCE.


Thu circumstance which induced the
writing OF the following most touching and
thrilling lines are as follows. A Young lady
of New York was in the habit OF writing TO
the Philadelphia Ledger, on the subject of
smnerance. Her writing was 50 full OF
patbos. and evinced such deep emotion Of
soul. that a friend Of hers accused her OF
being n maniac on the subject of temper
ance. whereupon she wrote the following
lines:
Go feel what | nave felt,
Go bear what | have borne
Sink meath the blow a father dealt
And the cold worlds proud scorn;
Then suffer on from year TO year
The sole relief the scorching tear.
Go kneel as / have knelt,
Implore, beseech and pray
Strive the besotted heart TO melt,
The downward course TO stay;
Be dashed with bitter curse aside,
Your prayers burlesqued, your tears defed.
Go weep as | have wept
Ger a loved fathers fall
See every promised blessing swept
Youths sweetness turned to gall.
Life's fading flowers strewed all the way
That broughtme up to woman's day.
Go see what l nave seen,
Behold the strong man bow,
WITH Rnashlng teetn, lips Datneu III plOOu,
And cold and ivid brow;
Go catch his whitening glance. and see
There mirrored, his souls misery.
Go to thy mothers side,
And her crushed bosom cheer.
Thine own deep anguish hide;
Wipe from her cheek the bitter tear.
Mark her worn face and withered brow,
The gray that streaks her dark hair now,
With falling frame and trembling limb,
And trace the ruin back to him
Whose plighted faith, in early youth,
Promised eternal love and truth,
But who, forsworn, hath yielded up
That promise to the cursed cup,
And let her down, through love and light,
And all that made her prospects bright;
And chain'd her there mid want and strife,
That lowly thing, a drunkard's wife,
And stamp'd on childhood's brow SO mild,
That whitening blight, the drunkard's child
Go hear, and feel, and see, and know,
All that my soul hath felt and known;
Then look upon the wine cups glow,
See II its beauty can atone,
Think if its flavor you will try,

In decomposing the organic substances,
