Photographinc on Tissue.

From some unknown source the fol-
lowing unique method of photographing
designs OH tissues is reported: The It's
sues are first plunged in bath of. prim-
uline, to which common salt has been
added; they are then washed and after
ward immersed for quarter of min
ute in bath containing .25 per cent
Of nitrate of soda, strongly acidulated
by nitric or hydrochloric acid. After
another washing, and while the tissue
is still moist. or after it has been dried
in the dark, the Photographic negative
plates to be reproduced are applied
above, and the whole exposed to the
light, on clear day and in brilliant
sunlight half minute exposure suffic-
ing, but on a dull day 80 minutes being
required. After the lapse of the neces-
sary time small piece of tissue ex-
posed being used as test of the print
ing, the tissue is plunged into the de-
veloping bath; if not, it is placed in
the dark, the development being carried
out as for colors dyed in wool AS in
the process Of ordinary photograph print
ing, familiar to all, the color is devel-
oped in this method at the spots where
the plates have prevented the action of
the light, while it is not developed else

A LOVE STRATAGEM.
And Bob Will Not Go Out of Nights with
the Doys Any More.

He had married the girl of his heart,
and she was all his fancy painted her,
and more, too, and he should have been
as happy as clam at high water, but
he wasn't. Somehow ho had got in with
the old fast set and took to spending his
evenings away from home, running
around town with the boys
His wife demonstrated, made herself
charming and agreeable, but failed to
keep him at home in the society of her.
self and their friends Things were 60
ing from bad to worse when she sud
denly hit on scheme to recall him to
herself.
One night he was particularly request
ed to come home early. He, as usual,
failed to comply, and it was midnight
when he hurried up to his steps, opened
the door with his latchkey and found
his home blaze of light and filled with
a large company. He was met by his
best man of year before, who in full
evening dress, hurried him up stairs.
Jump into your dress suit, Bob The
minister is here to marry you over again.
Marry me over again?" gasped Bob,
blinking about in the light. "What do
you mean?"
"Oh, it's a custom of his to visit
each couple he marries on the anniver-
sary of their wedding day, and, afte-
asking lot of questions, to read the
VOWS over aud have them respond Ho
thinks it's good idea, and so do W

Where's Nellie?"
"Down stairs in her wedding dress,
looking sweet as peach, waiting for
you.
When Bob entered the parlor, no look
ed like anything but happy bride
groom. He was shamefaced and wor.
ried, but when he saw Nellie, as fair
and lovely as she had looked at their
nuptials, he braced up. and in few
minutes was listening to the II charge

much as if it were solemn as funeral.
Then came congratulations and pres
ents and social merrymaking, and when
the company left Bob told them that he
would begin new honeymoon that
should last as long as he lived.
And he kepd his word. He says that
if young married people could keep
their anniversaries in that manner they
would not forget the obligations bind
ing upon them, and he gives his Nellie
credit for having long head as we'll as
loyal heart. Detroit Free Press.

Flowerpots.

All new flowerpots require to be
soaked in water and allowed to dry
thoroughly before being used. The soil
does not hang well to the sides of gar
den pots unless SO treated. Dirty pots
are open to the same objection. Let any
one try to put plant with fresh soil
into pot which has been used before
and left unwashed, and he will find in a
few days, when the soil begins to dry,
that it leaves space and does not ad-
here as it should to the sides of it. No
plant can possibly flourish under such
circumstances The roots of a plant
draw to the sides of pot naturally in
search Of moisture, and growth, of
course, is checked if current of air is
allowed to pass between them and the
sides. Some plants exhibit this tenden-
cy in such remarkable degree that few
roots are to be seen, except a network
on the outside of the soil next the pot.

MUSIC AND SNAKES.
Water Reptiles Become Demonstrative at

Water Reptiles Become Demonstrative at
tho Sound of an Instrument.
Noises of every kind have peculiar.
attraction for water snakes, and Incl
dentally it may be stated that water
moccasins Of the Dismal swamp region
are nearly or quite as deadly in their
bite as the land family of moccasins. If
pistol be fred two or three times over
pond, creek or any still body Of water,
the reptiles will suddenly appear from
every quarter, seeming to be evolved
out Of thin air, SO rapid is their COM
ing, and they swim about for several
moments in great agitation. Sometimes
their numbers will swell to several
hundred, and it is believed by the ma
tives that on such occasions they are
especially dangerous The same result
is attained if any musical instrument
be played along shore or in boat, ex-
cept that the reptiles are less demon
strative, remaining nearly still upon
the surface or hanging around upon
bushes that overlap the waters edge
The multitude of snakes to be seen in
certain localities is So great that verify
no man can number them. This is es-
pecially true after heavy rains, when
the swamps are overflowed, and they
are driven to the higher places. Re-
moved from their regular haunts, they
appear to be gregarious, huddling and
crowding together, sluggish and indif-
ferent to every thing, as though utterly
overcome of inconsistencies. Yet they are,
easily aroused and excited at the ap-
proach of man, when, seemingly in
spired of courage through numbers,
they decline to get out of his path and
will show fight if he attempts to mo-.
lest them. Chicago Tribune.

favorable, they will have to serve out
their terms.

the jury in the case properly regarded
Hosle as the real culprit and achieved
justice SO far as 1t could by acquitting
Couch and placing the costs on the con-

The matter. however, ought not to
rest here. If Hosie is the kind of man
to try to levy blackmail in one case,
he will probably try to levy it in other
cases, and Is therefore unfit to act fur

of the law. The needed reformation
in the constabulary of Lackawanna
could not be inaugurated to better ad-
vantage than by turning the hose on
Hosie and putting on full pressure.

The Philadelphia Evening Bulletin

this 1.-THE fight of his life" 1tisays: For
the first time in his career he Is obliged to
face IL hostile combination when he Is al
most absolutely cut off from the patronage
of office at Washington. at Harrisburg

already been deserted by several of his
most active lieutenants, and the leaders of
the new combination are most powerful in
those parts of the state which have u.s.
ually been his stronghods in the con-
troll of state conventions Both from the
popular standpoint and the standpoint OF
practical politics the combination which
Governor Hastings leads Is powerful one.
1t represents not only the growing ten
dency to protest against the one-man
power in the direction Of the party organ
ization and the demand for a recognition
of the true financial doctrines of the party,
but It has behind 1t. in addition to this SEN
timent, the skill of some of the most ex-
perienced politicians I'm the state. 1t Is no
excursion In sentimental or amateur poll
ties such as has so often been made
against Quay In vain. but an aggressive,
well-organized movement for the over
throw Of Quay, horse, foot and dragons,
and ultimately for the nomination of Hast
ings as Pennsyvanias candidate for pres
ident." The Bulletin probably does the
governor an injustice when 1t intimates
that his fight against Quay Is solely for
the purpose of being a candidate for pres
ident.
