In. Locke of Wayne County was
formerly an active trader In May,
1872, he was in Chicago, and bought
a lot for a small sum. He put the
deed IN an envelope and placed it in
his pocket with other papers. A few
DAYS afterwards, while getting into
his buggy, he lost the envelope and all
its contents. lie advertised for it, but
really cared only for the notes, think
ing the lot of little value. John
Ritchcy, victim Of sOftcning of the
brain, was wandering aimlessly OH the
street the day Locke lost his papers.
He found them and laid them away,
and even after his death no notice
was taken of the supposed worthless
papers. About ten days ago John
Riiclley found the package and gave il
10 Mr.. Locke, and through his attor-
ncys his claim has been established.
Had the deed remained concealed a
few days longer the twenty years
would have expired and no claim
would have been allowable. 1t is a
lot OH the boulevard addition, and the
parties occupying it have given Mr..
Locke 500, 900 for a quitclaim. -[Iu-

Paint from CottOnseed Oil.

A new paint, which is said TO be
specially u,cful for the protection of
metallic surfaces, is prepared from
cottonseed oil. A gallon of pure cot
tonseed oil is put into suitable iron
vessel aud twenty pounds Of melted
lead poured into it. After thorough
stirring the lead separates into glob-
ules, and when the oil has been poured
off after cooling, there are found to
be about seventeen of the twenty
pounds of lead remaining, the other
three pounds having been absorbed by
the oil. On the lead which has been
employed being again melted, and the
operation being repeated to the fifth
pouring-the amount of lead being
less at each succeeding pouring-the
total quantity of lead absorbed is about
ten pounds. The oil thus charged
with the lead is then used as a paint,
being employed in the usual manner
for metallic surfaces. Il Picayuue.

Two Cheap Meals.

A man who had just finished COM
Portable meal at State street restau-
rant last evening suddenly arose from
his chair. grabbed his hat and an UNI
brella that stood against tne wal, anu
rushed out of the building.
''Stop him!" exclaimed the cashier.
"That fellow went away without pay
ing!"
"Tll stop himp said a determined
looking man who rose up hastily from
a table near where the other had sat.
''He took my gold-handled umbrella!
I'll stop him and I'll bring him back
with an ofiicerl The scoundrell"
Without moments pause he dashed
out of the house in hot pursuit of the
conscienceless villain.
Aud the cashier, cold, hard, un-
sympathetic kind of man, has begun
TO suspect that neither of them will
ever come back. - Chicago Tribune.

perform an interesting experiment
by separating the soluble salt. 1t Is
only necessary to place little gun
powder, in a glass half tllled with
water and allow it to stand day or
so in warm place-such as sunny
windowsill.
The saltpeter will first dissolve in
the water, and then creeping up the
sides of the glass will crystalline
around the edge, as shown in the
illustration. The creeping property
OF certain salts is very interesting
and sometimes a very annoying
one to the chemist. Ammoniac.
chloride, or sal ammoniac, possesses
it in high degree, and it may often
be observed incrusting the edges of
electric batteries, in which its solu-i
tion is used as an exciting agent. 1t
may be prevented by covering tue
edges OF the vessel containing it with
grease, wax or parafiin.
The residue left in the tumbler
consists Of sulphur and charcoal, but
there is no simple method of separat-
ing them. The sulphur will dissolve
in bisulphide of carbon, but we can
not recommend the use of this in
flammable and offensive liquid to the
amateur in chemistry. SOS

A Wonderful Machine.

G. NJ. Spencer, whose inventions
some time ago much sinplified the |
making of screws, has, with A. H.
L Idly, President of the Eddy Electric
Company, recently invented aud COM
pleted machine which is believed TO
be as far ahead of his other inventions
us they were ahead of the old hand
machines. The new machine, says
the Hartford (Conu.) Courant, is in
successful operation, aud every test OF
it has proved highly satisfactory. HUI
man ingenuity, il would seem. can
develop screw m chinery no further.
The machine will take the wire from
coll, head the screw, cut the threads,
cut off the screw from the coil aud
make the slot No machine has been
invented before that will do all this.
1t does without any additional
handling of material what before this
present invention was always done by
two or three machines. Besides, 1t
separates the finished screws from the
shavings, depositing them clean aud
bright iii receptacle placed to re-
ceiye them. All other machines have
to be fed with the Strengthened wire,
the rods being about 10 feet long.
The last two or three inches of every
rod are wasted. With this machine
the only waste is at the end of each
coil, two or three inches, and the coil
may be 400 Or 500 feet long.
The advantage of feeding from a
coil is not only in saving of waste,
but also in the saving Of labor. Put
on coil of wire, start the machine,
and il win attend TO itself. The oper-
.ier can attend to other duties if he
| llkes, aud When he returns he VIII
find lot of completed screws, the
little machine being still at work and
attending strictly to business.
Simplicity is the ruling festure of
this machine and the impression pro-
duced in watching il work is the won-
der that no one ever invented il be-
fore. 1t is safely covered with patents,
of course. In other machines the wire
is revolved rapidly against the tools
and die. In this the wire is held in
the same position throughout the pro-
cess aud is carried by an arm against
: the different instruments, which oper-
ate upon it until the completed screw

In the recent terrible disaster at
Titusyille. Pa. when so many lives
were lost by flood and fire., poor
German laborer yentnred again and
again in the burning mass to drag
forth victims He was successful
three times, but in the fourth att
tempt the flaming oil swept over him.
Later in the day his charred and life
less body was carried to his old
mother. She threw herself upon il

her head, said:
II thank God that he gave my son
chat great work to do! ! am will-

He was her only child. She was
eft homeless and friendless; yet in
all the miserable days that followed
she comforted herself with the
thought Of the work he had done.

IS one picture which appeals to tho
heart OF every mother. 1t is the
Dead Christ, painted by Van Dyck.
The Saviour lies cold and dead upon
the ground at the foot of the cross

Sc. John, his face full Of CONSERVATION

Standing near, and points to the
motionless figure.
"What does this mean?" he seems
10 say. SIS this the end of the worlds

They have no answer. They bury
their faces in their hands.
But his mother knows. She looks
beyond them up to God, her face full
pf agony and exultation. She has

plished. she is content.-Youth's

Quite Anpronriate.

A book pedler, who was wearing a
small circular piece of court plaster on
his face, removed it while shaving, a
few mornings since, and replaced it
when his toilet was complete.
Contrary to his usual experience, as
he went about his business during the
rest of the day. he was everywhere
received with smiles, which grew
broader and broader, until at last
somebody laughed in his face. Led
by this TO look in tho glass, he was
somewhat taken aback to discover
that, instead of the court plaster, he
had affixed to his face little round
printed label which had fallen from
the back of new mantel clock pur-
chased the day before, and which bore
the appropriate inscription, "War-
ranted solid brass. ."-[Yankce Blade.

1t is difficult to say from which of
our several nationalities the best
servants come, writes Mrs. LYMAN
Abbott, in timely article on the
Mistress and Maid" question, In the
ladies Home Journal. In a house
where the family is very regular, the
orderly and ambitions Swede is, per.
haps, the best. Where there is much
drudgery the German may be best.
Where the household is necessarily ir-
regular, where the young people are
coming home from school after the
ordinary noon meal, where the house
mother in her cares needs the SYM
pathies of her maid servant, the
warm-hearted Irish girl cannot he
surpassed.
For qualities of loyalty and con-
seientious attention to duty the
Scotch cannot be exceeded So far as
my experience goes, they are specially
good in places Of trust. Many per-
sons much prefer co,ored servants.
AMI If they become attached to the
family their faithfulness and deyo-
tion may atone for their lack OF abil,
ity to assume responsibility
But in each case the treatment
must be according to the disposition,
/ If you expect from the mercurial Irish
1 girl cordial acceptance OF great bur
den of work at one time, you must be
( ready to give her little outing occa-
sionally, and must take an earnest
interest in her burdens when they
come. | find it much better to take
my servants into sort of partner

Year Of Greatest Growth.

The year of greatest growth in boys
is the t7th; in girls, the 18th. While
girls reach full height in their 15,h
year they acquire full weight at the
age of 20. Boys are stronger than
girls from BIRTH to the / lth year; then
girls become superior physically 10
the 18th year, when the tables are
again turned TO remain so. From
November TO April children grow
very little and gain no weight; from
April to July they gain in height, but
lose in weight and from July TO
November they increase greatly in
weight, but not in height.-[IpdisrN-

The Closing Year.

When chimneys no more music ho'd,
For that the swallows all are gone;
When winds be salty, blowing cold
From sailing ships and the wet dawn;
When briers where the rose was bold,
On blackened twigs show berries serc.
Then OBJ, my love, and hey, my love,
The closing O. the yearl
When gusts die down and lanes grow still
And the cold weather comes once more;
When stiffening stalks begin to thrill,
And twisted boughs bud at the door;
When for some sweet space on the hill,
White as long since the thorn-bush blows
Then oh, my love, and hey, my love,
The year is at the close.

To Prevent Disease.

The suggestion recently made to
call in the outstanding paper currency,
especially that which is old and worn,
and replace it with new bills, was
made in the editorial columns of the
New York News during the cholera
excitement many weeks ago. Now
the Londoa Lancet urges the British
Government to begin at once to pre-
pare for next year. sffhe coming
MONTHS" says that journal. ''must be
utilized in the work of combating the
malady which is likely TO bring dangers
far in excess of any we have encoun-
tered" If such be the medical out
look, the Government is called upon
to prevent the terminating of disease
from the familiar things we handle
every hour in the day. Our paper
currency is among these things, aud
it ought to receive attention.
