MAKING COLOREO GLASS.
A New German Process which Is Giving

One of the methods resorted 20 In
making colored glass objects is 10 take
a mass Of white glass from the melting
pot, on the end of blowpipe, and then
inmerse IL IN another pot containing
molten glass of the desired hue The
latter then constitutes a mere flrn on

in use. A new one is reported as hav-

Almost Immediately after his marriage

she had said to him something which
ne found il impossible TO get over. Her
words kept coming back TO him with
quite singular clearness, so that he
could fancy even that he heard her

words to be cruel: and she had no clear
notion how horribly cruel they were
She had also intended them 10 provoke

VALUABLE WOODS.
TO Be Found In Great Profusion In Cen
trail and South America.

anu eouIn
Many of the finest woods in existeace
are yet unknown, or only slightly
known, to the manufacturers of wood
in the civilized world. The woods Of
Central and South America are, per-
haps, the most remarkable as well as
the least known. In the yet untouched
forests of this continent are many woods
far finer than any of those now in use.
These woods range from pure white to
jet black in color, and many of them
are most beautifully marked and
veined. Some of them are so hard that
they turn the edges of axes, chisels
and other tools, while the band saw
cuts them only slowly. In the Column
bian exposition there were many dis
plays of little known woods, and the
finest of them were those from Argen-
tine Republic, Brazil and other South
American countries. Some of these
southern woods yielded TO the teeth of
the band saw, not the ordinary saw
dust, but fine powder, fine as the finest
-four, so hard were the woods. Some
of them burnt but slowly. Others pos
sess qualities that keep them free from
insects Some of them seem to be
practically indestructible by air and
water All along the eastern slopes OF
the Andes, up to the snow line on
those great elevations, throughout all
the great river valleys, and in some Of
the wide areas of level country in
South America are great forests Of fine
woods that are specially ut for the
finest cabinet and furniture work, and
also for shipbuilding, carpentry and
other industrial arts in which wood is
the raw material" The great forests
are now an unknown quantity in the
commercial world, but they will come
rapidly into the knowledge OF men and
into industrial use when once the rail-
road has reached them. Before many
years, Ii is safe TO predict, the South
American and Central American re-
publics viii be threaded by railroads,
and then those wonderful woods will
be drawn upon TO supply the demand
for new and fine woods in all the civil
lied countrieS-Lumber World.

How to Secure Rotary Motion from IN
Osctllatins Lever.
Many attempts have been made to
equip small boats, to be propelled by
man power, with paddle wheels in
stead of oars. Such an arrangement
has at least two advantages. Naviga-
ton of very narrow stream or inlet,
when oars would touch the banks, is
thus made easy. And the occupant Of
the craft can face forward instead of
backward, as when rowing, and see
where he is going. One of the latest
devices Cor this purpose is that of F. B.
Nichols, of New York, a man now
seventy years Of age. 1t is arranged
SO as to be operated by either one or
two men. Mr.. Nichols has already in
troduced it into an eighteen-foot boat,

gratifying ease.
