The Ancient Manufacture of Copper

The ancient Syrians and Ph9nicians
are we'll known to have been active
traders in copper, and they manufac-
tured this metal into bronze by melting
it with tin. Learned antiquaries assure
us that the Phenicians actually came to
England and to Ireland in search Of tin
for this purpose, and a few years ago
some curious bronze articles were found
in several Of the old mine workings in
Cornwall, which are believed to have
been left there by that ancient people at
a time when no bronze was either made
or used in England.-Chambers Jour

To Help LabOring Men.

To overcome the serious results that
are experienced upon coming from pro-
tracted labor under compressed air. a
waiting chamber, where one can rest
and have the change of pressure take
place gradually, has been used Of late,
and it has been found that some diseases
incident to such work are prevented and
some cases cured. The time for resting
varies from five to twenty minutes.

Where a face is used on a piece of
money it is always in profile, because
the cameo is more readily struck with
the die in that manner, and if a full or
three-quarter face were represented, the

damaged in circulation and produce a

Nice Points in Laundering.

The sun is q great restorer and viYifier,
but il should not be allowed to shine on
either feather pillows or underlinen that is
to be worn again. These are best aired in
the shade You may sun the sheets from
OFF the bed, but not the night dresses. 1t
will play havoc also, with the delicate
maure muslins that are such favorite this
summer, and permanently pale ali light
blues and rose-colored cottons. These must
be dried in the shade. The country laun-
dress will, perhaps, not understand this
without repeated and weekly directions.
Bathing suits and white clothes can have
as much OF the sun on the clothes line as
possible but white tiannele, if you would
not have them yellow, must be hung on the
shady side of the garden. In city yards
there is always time in the day when
there is shade somewhere; in the broader
bleaching grounds of country houses you
win often have to stretch the lines in the
shadow of house or under tree to secure
this.
From England come directions about
lsundrying In rice water the delicate COL
ored muslins that you dare not intrust to
ordinary soap and ordinary starch. Starch
suffering in muslins is very much out of
date this summer, whom dresses must be
clear and crisp, yet hang in the softest
folds. not stiff at all Boil half pound of
rice in the clothes boiler with two or three
gallons of water. AS soon as the rice is

rice, in separate tue. rubbing the rice
over the muslins, then, rinsing them light

serve enough stiffness while remaining

A Lilliputian Naval rat,le


The amusing experiment of lilliputian
naval battle eau be made with white chalk
and the ordinary table vinegar, says
Hdrper's Young People. Model, say, dozen
CHUNKS of chalk to the resem blance of
ships, planning the bottoms evenly, and
using matches for mssts smoke stacks aud
turrets. The rival forces you can dis
tlnguish by coloring the enemy's ships with
black ink, leaving your own white. Hav-
ing placed them in a pan or plate close to
an Imaginary dividing line, pour good
quantity of vinegar between the chalk
sticks. Instantly you viii hear an audible
seething, like the Kissing of shells in actual
warfare, while ships, as if putting up
steam, will begin to move forward in slow
revolutions, leaving behind them streaks
of foam such as are observed in the wake
Of moving vessels. When meeting at the
dividing line they will have attained quite
a respectable speed. pumping and cutting
together in the endeavor to push one al
other furthest from The dividing line. The
engagement often proves an exciting one.
OF course. the side has won which has the
larger number of ships nearest the cente
after the ARRAY.
The chemical solution of this seeming
mystery ls quite simple. Chalk being
largely carbon combines with the acid of
the vinegar in carbonic acid-the same
gases that cause the effervescence of most
mineral waters. The gases rise to the sur
face of the vinegar in small bubbles OF suffi-
cient strength to cause the current which
turns the chalk.
Since the patriotic youth will want to see
the American boats win, it will be well for
him to remember that the best quality of
chalk contains the largest proportion of
carbon. 1t will also prove of advantage to
plane the chalk carefully so as to permit IL
to glide easily.

To Destroy Insects.

1neects of all kinds, and most Of the small
winged tribe. can effectually be kept off by
rubbing all the wood work Of the rooms,
beesteads, etc., with solution Of vitrol,
the strength Of which can be increased in
obstinate cases by adding to it an infusion
Of colocynth, or bitter apple. 1t leaves no
mark on the wainscotiugs, etc, and can
brush. Worms IN wood, red ants, ETC.,
will infallibly be destroyed if this is done.
The great objection to the common fly
killers is their ungainiiness or general
ugliness; papers in plates are far from
ornamental. whilst the inartistic bottles,
with openings underneath, through which
the poor things crawl to their watery fate,
are positively aggressive. Papers, never
thesess, are very efhcaclOus; and 1t is, per-
haps, not generally recognized that the
higher they are placed the more flies they
will attract. 1t is, therefore, quite possible
to distribute one or two out OF sight on
bookcases or wardrobes. They should be
slightly moisteBed and changed as soon as
the water becomes discolored.
The painting with vitrol applies also to
the prevention of wasps, blueboitles, etc.
with the solution viii be kept very free.
Where the winged pests congregate in any
number, and especially in their crawling
state, certain destruction will be their lot
if they are just touched on the back with a
feather dipped in sweet OIL. Crickets are
destroyed in very short time by means of
roast apples ana arsenic powder, thor
oughiy mixed, and slipped into the holes
leading TO their haunts.
