A Fairy Ship.

We are all of us more or less fond
of our toys, and some Of them, for
sake of association, appear to be Of
great value. One of the most valuable
of toys ever made is that recently con-
structed by jeweller of Turin, Italy.
1t is boat made of single pearl.
The outlines of the boat are said by
those who have seen it to be perfect.
1t has a sail beaten from solid gold,
and is studded with diamonds. The
blnnacle light is ruby of wonderful
brillance, and for rudder it has an
emerald. The stand upon which it is
mounted is made of the purest of
ivory; and the whole toy-stand, boat
aud all-weighs less than half an
ounce. The value of this marvellous
thing in dollars is five thousand. As
toy it is hardly worth two cents. if
the value Of toy is measured by the
amount Of fun to be got out of it, for
no child, however extravagant, would
find much pleasure in playing with an
object of such rarity and of such great
monetary value. - [Harper's Young

TO CLEAN PAINT.

There is very simple method to
clean paint that has become dirty, and
if housewives would adopt it it wonld
cave them great deal of trouble.
Provide plate with some of the best
whiting to be had and have ready
some clean warm water and piece of
flannel, which dip in the water and
squeeze nearly dry; then take as much
whiting as will adhere to it, apply ii
to the painted surface, when little
rubbing will instantly remove any
dirt and grease, after which wash the
part with clean water rubbing it dry
with soft chamois. Paint thus cleaned
looks as well as when first laid on,
without any injury to the most delicate
colors. 1t is better than using soap.
and does not require more than hall

THE SMALL DETAILS OF COOKERY.
1t is IN the small details of cookery
that the secret of success lies; es-
peclally the deft blending that so COM
bines all ingredients into the appetiz-
ing whole. You cannot hurry certain
processes without disturbing the per-
fection of results; and she who pre-
pares meal with but the one aim
to get through-generally loses all the
value of her time and trouble in
soggy, crude and disagreeable dishes.

Most people know that oranges
make peculiarly strong resistance to
frost and that they may be safely ex-
posed 10 pretty low temperature
without danger of being spoiled. Tie
reason is that the juice of the orange
contains . large amount Of citric acid
in solution. 1t also contains consider
able sugar. and as the juice is not ex-
posed to evaporation, owing to the
thickness Of the skin, 1t does not easily
freeze. - Boston Journal.

10 make railroad tie tnat Will pass
for first class under the careful eye Of
the inspector requires no small amount
of skill. and only those men who have
had an experience of years at hewing
are capable of doing first class work.
A chestnut tree measuring eighteen
inches through at the ground will
yield two first class ties, one second
class, one horse tie and post. When
the tree has been chopped down q
board called ssstraight edge" is lain
on the trunk parallel with it. This
board is six inches wide and eight feet
long. Along the edge of the board q
sharp pointed instrument is drawn.
which leaves a deep mark in the bark.
These marks are to guide the newer.
This done the hewer stands on the log
and drives an axe into its sides at
distance of four inches apart, taking
care not to cut beyond the mark. This
work is called sscoring" and is done
for the purpose of enabling the newer
to work more rapidly with the broad
axe.
In hewing, the workman uses an
axe with bit from eight to ten inches
wide, and that weighs about eight
1n T1.e so hY7,1 an, n sh0pt
helve, slightly crooked to prevent the
hewer's knuckles from chatting against
the log. Standing beside the log, the
workman walks slowly backward, cut
ting or hewing the chips to the line.
The experienced newer will perform
this work so deftly that the hewed
surface looks as if 1T had been
smoothed with carpenters plane.
This work completed, the tie is 'sbut-
ted'' or squared at each end, which is
done with crosscut saw. This done,
the tie is ready for the market.
There are four classlfcations of ties
first class, second class, horse rail-
road and electric railroad. A first
class tie must be inches square or
more on the ends and 8 feet long, it
hewed. If sawed, it must measure 8
feet in length, with face 6xS inches.
The second class tie must be of the
same length, with face 6x5 inches.
The horse tie. used in the construction
of railroads, must be hewed and meas
ure feet in length and be 5 inches
square ON tbs face. The electric ties,
used in the construction of electric
railroads are sawed and are z feet
long, with face varying in size from
SKI to 6x7 inches. From all first class
ties the bark must be carefully
peeled.
For first-class tie railroad compa-
MES pay fifty cents; for a second
class, twenty-five cents; for horse
ties, from eighteen to twenty-five
cents, according to quality, and for
electric ties, from seven to forty
two cents. The best hewers can CONF
plete but twenty ties in a day. For
this labor they are paid eight cents
each for chestnut ties and cents for
oak of the first class. For second
class ties they get five cents each, and
four cents apiece for horse ties. Work
ing from sunrise to sunset on win
ter's day, these hardy woodsmen make
but an average of 81 day during
pleasant weather, and there are weeks
when severe storms and deep SHOWS
cut their earnings down to So a week.
But this amount is sufficient to keep
them alive and contented. = [New

To this end this convention earnestly
requests the Legislature at its next ses-
sion to appropriate a sufficient sum of
money, not less than 100000, to be ex-
pended in the discovery and importation
OF parasitic insects beneficial to horti-
culture into this state, and that the law
provide that the importation and cul-
ture OF such insects and the expendi-
ture OF such sum of money be confided
to the care of the state board OF borti-

The convention spent the remainder
OF the morning session in discussing a
claim OF Messrs. Young & Powers of
San Francisco for legal services in draft
ing the presents horticulture law under
which the state is now acting. and APP
pearing a number of times before the

for about 5000, and has come up regu-

discord finally passed away and white

As had been anticipated, the intro

favoring the naturalization of railroads
was the cause of row. The point in
question singularly was not in the reso-
luton itself, but was the motion Of Mr..
Msslin to lay it upon the table before
there had been any discussion upon its
merits. Rather energetic speeches were
made by Mr.. Fowler of Fresno and Mr..

Ice For Nicaragua.

Atlanta Cor. Columbus EnQuirer-Sun.
Herman Winter of Savannah passed
through here to-day on his return from visit
to Nicaragua and Honduras He made a con
tract TO build an ice plant at Buehelds, the
great banana port. He says that the revolu-
ton In Nicaragua was a very tame affair. The
people were glad to get rid of the president
who had made millions out Of the country by
issuing paper money and exchanging 1t for
gold.
Winter says that ice sells for IS cents a
pound at Bluefields, and that he proposes to
reduce the price to 5 cents pound. He. pre-
scented the Indian chief OF the section with a
Knight of Pythias helmet which had flow
ing rcd plume The chief was delighted, and
wanted to give one Of his wives to his Ameri-
can friend. who begged to be excused, as he
has family of his own. Winter says that IT
made him sick TO see the way New Orleans
and Mobile have taken the trade away from
Savannah.
Georgia used to have a big trade with that
coast, but the Savannah firms have stopped
sending drummers down there and the trade
has been captured by the gulf cities. A great
deal OF money is being made from the banana
trade and from gold mining. Work has
stopped along the Panama canal the work
that was done at the expense Of millions is
going to ruin. Miles OF machinery are piled
up and rusting and rotting.
