Plant Propagation.

Some very curious processes for propo-
cation are practiced ut the public gar
dens. One consists in cutting with q
knife ring around n branch of plant
Ono might imagine that the intention
was to kill the branch, but such is by
no means tho object in view The cut
having been made, piece of wet moss
is wrapped and tied around the branch at
that point Beneath this protection the
sap exudes from the wound, and little
rootlets are developed. After few days
the branch is cut away from the parent
stem, being then itself a complete plant,
with roots, all ready to put in pot.
This plan is adopted with plants OF slow
growth, because one plant may thus be
split up into half a dozen or moro of
good size, instead Of waiting for q
Seeding or little slip to develop.

Glass Weaving.

The key TO tho process of making
glass curtains, in connection with knit
material. consists in operating particu-
lar noodles Of the machine at the right
time and allowing others to rema1n idle,
for which purpose set of chain bars is
used, 50 arranged rs to render it posi-
BILE to command tho different needles
according t the needs of the process
A chain is made up of bars, links and
balls, like those used on tho loom for
weaving cloth, and there is lever at
ts.ched to the shoulder of each needle
and extending from the part where the
goods circle the needles down to the
first bar of the chain, the latter resting
IN bearings On the turning Of crank
connecting bcveled gears motion is i'm
parted through the agency of an upright
shaft to the chain cylinder, and every
timo the yarn isdelivered to the needles
q revolution is made, the chain bar cylin-
der presenting new bar to the levers
of the needles, and whenever ball on
the bar contacts on the lever tho needle
to which it belongs is pushed forward,
and mechanical device causes the
needle to operate and form loops, thus
knitting. There are, however, blanks
on some of the bars and whom these
blanks connect with the levers of the
noodles no movement is made -Uphol-

BE PATIENT WITH THE LIVING.

Sweet friend. when thou and art gone,
Beyond earth's weary labor.
When small shall be our need Of grace
From comrade or from neighbor;
Passed all the strife, the toll, the care,
And done with all the signing
What tender truth shall we have gained.
Alas BY simple dying!
Then lips too chary of the praise
Will tell our merits over,
And eyes too swift our faults to see
Shall no defect discover:
Then hands that would not lift a stone
When stones were thick to cumber
Ger steep hill path will scatter flowers
Above our pillowed slumber
Sweet friend, perchanco both you and L.
Ere love is past forgving,
Should take the earnest lesson home
Be patient with the living!
Today's repressed rebuke may save
Our binding tears tomorrow:
Then, patience, cen when keenest edge
May whet nameless sorrow.
Tis easy to be gentle when
Death silence shames our clamor.
And easy to discern the best
Through memory's mystic glamour;
But wise it were for thee and me,
Ere love is past forgiving,
To take the tender lesson home
Be patient with the living.
