A Live Package in the Dead Letter once.

A Live Package in the Dead Letter Once.
Is it to be expected that an ordinary
clerk, without special remuneration,
shall expose himself to the dangers Incl
dent to the opening of the multitudinous
and mysterious packages that are left as
metaphorical foundlings upon the figura-
tive doorstep of the postmaster general
Lest these perils be deemed imaginary, it
may be appropriate to refer to seventeen
snakes that arrived together on one oc-
casion in a parcel of the sort described,
although they were all very much alive,
especially RATHER, eight feet in length
and one of the biggest ever captured,
that ratified its nine rattles and showed
its fangs to the unaffected dismay of the
young gentleman who undid the bundle.
So great was his embarrassment that
he failed at the moment to keep accu-
rate count of the reptilian consignment,
and three weeks later the entire Office
was set in a stir by the unexpected ap-
pearance from beneath his desk of
three foot adder speckled in yellow and
black. Owing to the fact that adders of
other than the arithmetical variety are
discouraged in government Offices, this
particular serpent is now enjoying a
perennial spree in bottle of alcohol on
a shelf in the postofice department. =

through the iron bars with an expression
that would lead one to think that his
soul was wrapped up in them
Finally, the noise subsidies and the old
man gaZes into dozen comical expect
ant faces pressed against the bars, with
twenty-four pairs of bright eyes looking
at him, and utters few cultural sounds
that astonish and please the monkeys
He perfectly initiates the sounds Of most
of them, and all arrange themselves in q
semicircle and with great seriousness
listen to all he has to say. Sometimes
his tone is serious, when all the monkeys
put on very abject expression and look
as sorrowful as a monkey can.
Then again, when the tones are differ
emit, the monkeys will dance about with
every evidence of delight, and all begin
to jabber at once, until the old man
points his finger at one Of the largest.
All remain silent while he seemingly
carries on conversation with one Of the
older ones, initiating all the grimaces
and actions of a monkey as well as any
human being could
Sometimes the conversation lasts an
hour or more, when the little man bids
his friends adieu until the morrow.
1t is said by some that the little man
was once sea captain, whose crew was
murdered by the natives on the coast of
Brazil, and he made his escape to the
forests of the interior with no COM
panions but the MONKEYS for many
months, and subsisted entirely on the
wild fruits and other food berries that he
could gather. 1t is supposed that he OBJ
tanned some knowledge of their method
of communication during the months of
his enforced residence in the wilderness
that enables him to engage the attention
of the monkeys at Woodward's Gardens.
When accosted the old man will not
reply, and his mysterious behavior is
source Of much comment.-San Fran
cisco Examiner.

How to Tell Iron from Steel.

A writer in the Glasgow Engineer, in
pointing out some of the most practica.
bic data in testing iron and steel, lays
down simple rule to start with-name-
ly, that in any case where fracture OF
iron gives long. silky fbers of leaden
hue. the fbers cohering and twisting to-
gether before breaking, it may be con-
sidered tough, soft iron. Further, a
medium, even grain, mixed with fibers,
Is a good sign, while short and black
ish fiber indicates badly refined iron, a
very fine grain also denoting a hard and
steely iron, which is apt to be cold short
and hard to work with the file. Again,
coarse grain with brilliant crystalIized
fracture and yellow or brown spots, de-
notes a brittle iron, cold short, working
easily when heated and welding well.
Nitric acid viii produce a black spot
on steel-the darker the spot the harder
the steel-while iron, on the contrary,
remains brightif touched with that aGid
Good steel in its soft state has a curved
fracture and a uniform gray lustre, but
in its hard state dull, silvery. unifim

white heat without falling to pieces. a nd

The Piscina of ana EngIish Church,

Often in the furthermost end of an
aisle or transcept, recessed into the wall,
or but slightly standing out of it, brack-
ct fashion, may be seen the small plscina
that was used in old times when there
was an altar there. Besides these, only
much more rarely, a piscina upon the
ground may be seen. This is a small
hole upon the floor at the east end of the
church, south of the altar. If there were
no piscina into which to pour the water
in which the chalice was rinsed, we
might assume this was intended to carry
it away, but in three out of four ex-
amples known there are piscin9 on the
walls as we'll
