THE ART OF CONVERSATION.
To Talk Interestingly is a Splendid
Accomplishment.
LORD cHEsTERrIELD's ADVICE

The power to converse well Is very
great charm. Anyone can chatter, ex-

Chesterfield says: Never hold any
one by the button or hand in order to
be heard out, for II people are unwill-

your tongue than them" A talent for
conversation has an extraordinary
value Tor common everyday life both
IN the business and the social world.

But TOO much must not be Imposed up-
on the good talker. allowing him no on
portunity of displaying his listening
qualihcatlcns, for the good conversa-

positive element when occasion re-
quircs him to be. Conversation ceases

UNDER TERRIBLE PRESSURE.


The steamer Alfonso XII, having on
board ten boxes OF gold coin. each box
worth $4,000. struck on rock and
sank at Grand Canary while on a voy-
age from Cadiz to Havana in 1856.
1t was ascertalned that the specie
was at a depth of twenty-six and two
thirds fathoms-i60 feet and grave
doubts were entertained OF the posi-
blllty of any diver being able to with
stand the tremendous pressure incl
dental to such a depth. viz, sixty
seven pounds to every superficial
square inch OF his body.
Experiments at this depth were made
of Dartmouth and two men, Lambert
and Tessier, were found equal to the
perilous task, dresses having been pre-
pared which would remain water-tight
at this great depth.
An expedition was sent out by the
Marine Insurance Company, the divers
to receive a reward OF hye per cent. or
$500 on each box recovered. Lambert
got up seven boxes and Tessler two.
So terrible was the pressure that
neither man could stay below for more
than a few minutes. and Lambert, for
some time after his return, suffered
from chronic paralysis OF the bowels.

babe in the cradle. Probably a tightly
sealed kettle, sent down empty TO the
same depth, would have been crushed

As It was. the divers only succeeded

A subsequent expedition went In
search OF this box, and the diver. after
being down for twenty minutes was
hauled up only to die. Not whit dis
lcouraged, another expedition went out
with two divers from Germany.
The first OF these was promptly
hauled up half dead, only to be sent
ashore to the hospital raylng mad; the
other went down, but returned, declar-
ing that no box was there. Whether
he really got so far as the iazaretie

Flight Of the Langley Machine.

Describing a recent experimental test of
tho Langley aeroplane, The Industrial
World says: The propeller began bust
nesslike whir and the tension having
reached the proper degree the machine
was released. Then the sight was impress
i've. Like q monstrous swan, it jumped
into tho air in tho face Of perceptible
breeze, and after sailing gracefully for
some distance alighted upon the surface of
the water. 1t Is made to float. Quickly
followed by tho rowboat in attendance,
the apparatus was brought back and safe
ly housed.
In general way the sailing monster
suggests n gigantic swan. But to picture
it in mind more exactly as 1t rose from the
scow ono should conceive pure white
butterfly 10 feet from tip to tip of wing,
the posteror pair, however, being detached
from the anterior and much smaller. In
the rear extends a vertical tail or rudder.
The material is aluminium and the shape
like that of porpoise The wings incline
upward at slight angle, the machine be-
ing sustained much as kite is held in
