LITERARY LABOR.
Value of Early Rising and Danger of
 Overworking.

To make literary work healthy is a simple process, depending on the mode in which each day is allotted to it, and also on the mode in which the body is physically trained and disposed to carry it out, writes Sir B. w. Richard son in the Asclepiad. The first grand point is to begin the day we'll by early rising. The universal experience of the wisest men of all ages is in favor of the habit of getting up early in the morning. The practice is closely con- nected with length of life. It is also closely connected with happiness and activity of life. With the early hours of the morning literary work is always most fruitfully associated, when the habit of early work is once acquired. Thoughts are freshest then; the ar engagement of thoughts is clearest then; memory is keenest then. Thus thought, method and memory conspire together, and labor becomes pleasure. Make the sun your fellow-workman
 In the work of the day of the literary life nothing is so wholesome as to carry out the work without strain. There is always some little difficulty in getting into harness, but, this mas tered, work becomes easy enough. Samuel Johnson records that he could always work when he was forced to it: and Miss Martineau tells us that after the first quarter of an hour she found everything easy. With healthy minds this experience is common. There is, however, danger connected with it that must not be forgotten; that dan ger is the too long continuance of the labor after it has become easy. With some this danger is serious. The work is so fascinating, the time goes as if hours were minutes, and the physical hours are, as it were, stolen upon. and robbed outrageously.

THE OYSTERS ENEMY.
Great Destruction in the Delaware Bay
 Beds by the Borer.'

Great Destruction in the Delaware Bay
 Beds by the " Borer.' The ''borer,'' pest about the size of small strawberry, is working great havoc among the oyster beds in Della ware bay and tributary streams, says the Philadelphia Ledger.
 Capt. Moses Veale, of the oyster schooner White Lily, says that the de- structive powers of the ''borer" have beer known to oysterlnen only few I years. He had followed oyster digging for nearly thirty-five years, and the first ''borer' he saw was about ten years ago, but their ravages in the oys- ter beds were comparatively unnoticed until last year.
 Capt. Veale said that Hast year the number ( dead oysters with holes made by bore $ in the shell became so great that rystermen were alarmed. This year che work of the borers has become a grave matter, and if it continues p-any bays will be depopulated of oys- ters. From one bed we dredged on this trip we got twelve hundred baskets of oysters, but out of these only two hun dred were good, the dead oysters hay ing been killed by borers. A peculiar thing about the ravages of the 'borers' is their apparent selection of the best oyster beds. We have found this to be true several times this season. We have found bed of small oysters al- most entirely free from 'borers.' This bed will be separated from another bed of larger oysters by two hundred feet, but this latter bed will be so badly affected by the creatures that 1t will hardly pay to work it.
 From what can learn from oyster men the destruction wrought by borers is much more severe in Delaware bay than in other places.
 'The work of the borer this year makes a double misfortune, for the oyster beds were badly damaged by the big storm in August and September. Very few people who are not in the oyster dredging business know any thing of the methods of the borer. When I first took notice of it's work 1 secured several oysters just after the borer had fastened itself to the shell. When the borer fastens itself it holds on like leech, and it is with difficulty that it can be removed with the fingers.
 Sometimes the borer fastens itself to the oyster shell nesr the edge and then the oyster is not killed. When the hole of the borer is made near the center of the shell the oyster is at- tackled in it's vital parts and dies in three or four days after the hole is first made"
 Some of the bed-owners near Maurice river have lost large sums of money this year on account of the borer. All oystermen say there can be no way of taking away the borer without de- stroying the oyster beds.

FUTURE OF ALUMINIUM.
Roofs for Houses and Hulls for Vessels
 Sure to Be Made of It.

Sure to Be Made of It.
 Aluminium, which itself possesses a high degree of specific heat, does not really absorb heat itself, and thus is not liable to the chief objection to iron from light decorative purposes, says the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, such as balconies, cupolas, hnials and veran das, it is as roofing material that aluminium should be most welcome to the builder. In plates or scales, two thirds lighter than copper, uncorroded by air and undimmed even by the sul- phur of London smoke, it should make a roof fit for palace of romance.
 The humber elements of health and comfort in the house hardly less inn portant than it's external defenses against the weather-pipes, cisterns, taps and gutters, now made of iron which rusts, or lead which poisons- would be more enduring and far more healthy if made of this light and clean ly metal, which might also take the place of all water-holding vessels now made of heavy, brittle carthenware or painted tin. An aluminium bath is among the probable luxuries of the next century. But it is not as a mere accessory to comfort and convenience that real development of the new metal should lie. It is for use at sea that it's most marked quality of light. ness obviously fits it.
 The marine engineer and the naval architect, who are already looking in this direction for reduction of the weight which is inseparable from loss of efficacy, whether in speed or cargo. cannot neglect the possibilities of metal, which, when mixed in the pro- portion of one to fifty, gives to alum inum-bronze a hardness and tough ness which makes it almost as reliable as steel, and which, if the proportions could be reversed and the strength pre- served, would reduce the weight of ships and machinery alike by two- thirds. That is a problem which awaits the metallurgist for solution. The reduction in cost, judging by an alogy, can only be a question of time and research.
 The best steel now costs little more than one-half penny per pound, while aluminium is fifty times that price. But aluminium exists in far greater quantities than iron, is more widely distributed, and neither the limits of time nor the history of metallurgy for bid us to conjecture that, as the world has seen it's age of stone, it's age of bronze and it's age of iron, so it may before long have embarked on a new and even more prosperous age of alum inum

DON'T KNOW HOW TO EAT.

Too Many Americans WoefulIy Deficient
 in That Branch of Education.
 ''When my children get to the proper age," said the man who was smoking a briar pipe, ''I intend to have them taken in hand by some competent per son and give them thorough instruc- tion in the art of eating, and, further, in the science of finding out what to eat and ordering"
 What do you mean?" inquired a Buffalo Express man who sat next to him.
 Il mean this: The average American citizen is woefully deficient in 'knowl- edge of what he can get to eat. He falls down when it comes to ordering a dinner. The great majority of people in this country are brought up frugally at home and do not know anything but the commonest dishes. The conse- quence is that when a man goes into q restaurant for dinner or to hotel he gazes helplcssly at the bill of fare and secs many things of which he does not know the component parts. He dares not order anything that he is not sure of for fear of ridicule, and he falls back on roast beef and mashed potatoes The fact is, he doesn't know anything but roast beef. Same way in a restaur- ant. When a waiter shoves a bill of fare under 9 mans nose nine times out of ten he will look it over and then say: Gimme steak and some fried pota- toes Now, the man who does this day after day doesn't want roast beef. He is sick unto death of steaks and fried potatoes. He loathes ham and eggs, and yet he keeps on ordering them in dreary and dyspeptic success sion, because he doesn't know any better and he is too proud to confess his ignorance. It's that way with me, and I'll bet it's that way with most of you. am going to relieve my children of all these things. They're going to know what's what when it comes to eating. No roast beef dominationr shall be my household slogan"

FIRE WITHOUT SMOKE.
4 Berlin Inventors Scheme for Burning
 Pow dered Coal Is Successful.

4 Berlin Inventors Scheme for Burning
 Pow dered Coal Is Successful.
 Wherever there's smoke there's fire is an adage based on observation of uuvaryiEg physical laws, but the re- verse does not always hold good, for there may be fire without smoke, or at all events without apparent smoke.
 h Berlin, according to the New castle Chronicle, an inventor has suc- ceeded in devising means for insur ing complete combustion without the emission of smoke, and his method has, on repeated tests, proved so satis- factory that two of the most important steamsfipping companies in Germany have decided on adapting it to their steamers. In this system coal, reduced to powder in centrifugal disintegraters, is introduced into pear-shaped com bustion chamber lined with 1irebriclz. and fitted with an induction apparatus like those used in petroleum-fred fur naces, the coal dust being drawn along by a jet of steam or compressed air.
 The combustion chamber, which takes the place of a furnace. is provided with two apertureS, one in the center line of the boiler, occupying the posi- ton of the usual fre-hole door, while the other, on the opposite side of the combustion chamber, serves for intro ducing the coal dust through pipe, so placed that the dust is evenly dispersed over the whole surface of the chamber. After the first Ignition, which may be effected by any source of heat, the com bustion continues regularly and in tensely under the action of the air cur rent, which is regulated in accordance with the quantity of dust required to produce the necessary heat. The air or steam and dust are intimately mingled in the zone of combustion, while the speed of the current, which has served as vehicle for the dust, is much reduced. Each particle of fuel held in suspension is by this method brought into such close contact with the oxygen necessary for it's combus- tion that this combustion is so com plete as to allow of practically no smoke being generated.

vITiATED AIR.
Impurity of the Atmosphere of Steam
 Heated Buildings.

Impurity of the Atmosphere of Steam
 Heated Buildings.
 In an article contributed to the Philadelphia Record by Dr. F. A. Ad- ans, the inquiry is propounded whether the immense increase of steam-heated office buildings, in which the great majority of rooms have no adequate means for the renewal of the air to be warmed. may not in large measure account for the prevalence of pneumonia among middle-aged men. Many of these buildings, Dr. Adams says, are admirably constructed to keep out air, whether cold or not; this very perfection contributing to their insalubrity. In these dramatically sealed office rooms that abound in business buildings the steam heats the atmosphere to delightfully."- comfort able degree, and the occupant breathes and rebreathes the air during zero days when an open window cannot be endured, the effect being to silently undermine his powers of resistance, so that when he goes forth, exchanging such tropical air for the keen breeze of unrestricted nature, it happens that, through some subtle change in his.system which has robbed his lungs of their power of resistance, their ca pacity to endure the onset or transi- tion is gone and the subtle poison of unrenewed air does it's deadly work in the form of pneumonia.

DAYS OF THE HOME MADE.
Times When the Farmers Clothes Were
 Made at Home.

Times When the Farmers Clothes Were
 Made at Home.
 The cultivation of flax and the man, ufacture of linen were universal in the early days of New England. Nearly every house in the country had cards and great wheel and little wheel, reel and swifts, and dye-tub in the kitchen, and scarn, warping bars and loom in chamber or garret. From the History of Rochester" N. H., we cull the fol lowing description:
 Every farmer set apart a portion of his land for flax. It was an indispen- sable crop, and the manufacture of oil from the seed became a profitable business.
 The flax was carefully pulled up by the roots and stacked in the field till thoroughly dry, when the seed was thrashed out. It was then soaked in water for several days, and spread on the ground to be vetted, frosty nights helping to wbiten it.
 After suitable time it was slowed away till spring, when it was brought out to be dressed by use of the brake, the hatchel and the swingle By this means the flax was thoroughly bruised without cutting, and the tow and coarse, woody parts separated from the finer fbers of true linen. It was then combed to complete the separa- tion, and was ready for the wives and daughters tosspin and weave into gar mentS.
 Woolen cloth was also made at home. The wool was carded into rolls by hand, and then spun and woven into cloth.
 All garments were likewise made at home, not only for everyday wear, but the go-to-meeting dresses of the wom- en and the brooches for the men, even the suits that the minister wore in the pulpit and the clothes of repre- sentatives to congress, all were home made.
 The first carding machine was intro duced by Eliphalet Horne in 1871. It caused much excitement in town, and set the old people to shaking their heads and asking what the girls would have to do now.

4 Strange Plant.

In the island of Reunion is plant known as the wild orange, which pro- duces fruit, green at first, afterward bluish, and verging into purple as It ripens. This has been tested and found to make a beverage in every way equal to coffee and at much lower price. The product is called 'mussaenda," and can be used alone CT mixed with pure coffee. It is announced that about twenty-four thousand acres of this plant are now being cultivated. It is most likely, however, that chieory, more than cof- fee, will suffer from the introduction of ''mussaenda.

Fir Strorger Than Oak.

It would be difficult. says the St. Louis Republic. to convince the aver age man that fir is a stronger wood than oak, but such has been proven by actual tests that were made by fair and impartial committee appointed for that purpose. The timbers used were each 2x4 inches and feet long. both ends solidly braeed and the weight ap- piled in the middle of the span. Tel. low fir stood a strain of S,O62 pounds. common Oregon oak, 2,922 pounds. Fine-grained yellow fir from near the butt stood strain of S,635 pounds. and best Michigan oak snapped with a strain of only 2,42s pounds. The tests were made by the Northern Pacific Railway company at Tacoma, Wash.

4 Ju-r on 2 Strike.

The most remarkable case in Texas legal history was tried recently at
 Oakland before Justice English-Mrs. Ella Halloway vs. J. 1T. Van Alstyne, says a Houston correspondent of the St. Louis Globe-DemOcrat The case consumed the day and was given to the jury at night. Before retiring the jury demanded that each man be paid his fifty-cent fee. The justice de- murred and ordered them to bring a verdict or they would get no fee. The jury retired and in fifteen minutes en- tered court. They had a sealed verdict. Before turning it over to the justice the jury struck for their hard-earned fees. Under protest the justice gave each juror fifty cents. He opened the verdict, which read: ''The jury cannot agree" This enraged the court. He demanded the fifty cents each juror had been paid. The jury refused and the court ordered them locked up until verdict was given pro or con. After being out another hour the jury reported that they were still unable to agree. Judge English then demanded the return of the fees. The jurors refused to sur render and fine of two dollars and fifty cents each was assessed and their incarceration ordered. \ compromise was finally reached by four of the jury the fees and the other two paying the fine of two dollars and fifty cents. The higher courts will be in- flicted with the case.
