Cutting Cork by Hand.

The crude cork to he cut by hand is first
soaked in tepid water until almost ready
to swell In this condition il is taken out
aud turned over to the cutter. Spanish
cork cutters use three knives. One Is a
long curved knife arranged with gauge
for regulating the size of the piece Of the
cork cut off, This knife is used for cutting
the cork into long strips. Another and
smaller knife cuts the strips up into
blocks, and third and very sharp knife is
used for producing the finished cork. This
knife has blade OF fne steel nearly hid
den in jacket Of iron.
The iron pocket Is to give the knife rigid
ity. and the cork cutter applies not the
knife to the cork, but the cork to the knife
lie rests the knife on the edge Of table
and presses the cork down upon the blade
The tendency OF this is to curve the blade.
and curved blade would produce hol-
low cork. German and American cork
cutters use a thin knife, which comes from
the factory straight. but is bent by the
cork cutters themselves. The curved side
is turned up in working, and the result is
that the kiuk straightens under the pres
sure of the cork, aud the latter is cut
straight and not concave.
The cork cutter always has milestone
on his table and strap upon his knee
He applies the knife to the strap after each
cork is cut, and less frequently to the
milestone. Cork has peculiar power Of
dulling the sharp steel with which it is
cut.-New York Sun.

II is related by writer IN the New

although Hawthorne at col eye took
part IN the "blows." and much as he
enjoyed Icing present at these festal
scenes, ''he never told story nor sang
a song. His voice was never heard IN
any shout of merriment: bu, the silent
beaming smile would testify to his
keen appreciation of the seem. and to
his enjoyment of the wit. He would
sit for whole evening with heal
gently inclined to one side, hearing
every word, seeing every gesture. and
yet scarcely . word would pass his
lips"
