The most famous hot-buttered

Cornhill Magazine, was "Tyson's
Restaurant" in Rock street,
Manchester, which still flourshes,
but no longer Is animated by the
crisp individuality of its founder,
old Tom Tyson, as he was known.
Tyson was a born autocrat, who
knew that in their heart of hearts
Britous, for all their "Rule Bril-
tannia" sentiments, like to be
elave driven. So be established
a restaurant wherein he, an in.
flexible autocrat, might enforce
Laws of his own making and win
riches by dis very enforcement.
He provided only chops, steaks
and CUMBERLAND ham, and served
with them, instead of vegetables,
hot buttCred toast or bread. Most
Of his customers took toast. To
people who asked for potatoes it
was arcasticaly remarked that
they should have brought their
own Everyone who ate at Tyson's
was compelled also to drink. Ale,
stout, c. flee and tea we're the
liquids. A customer asking for
water was referred to the "teetotal
shop next door,
A host of good stories are told
Of Tyson. He dominated the place
in his shirt sleeves, and no hing
escaped his vigilant eye. His
duty to customer, as be conct ived
1t, was done when good food had
been laid pr mptly before him;
after that toe customers duty to

sitting, nor smoking. Tyson's
strength was the excellence Of h s

ness like dispatch, md kn)wing
this he played the tyrant to the
top of his bent. A young man
once calling, Waiter, bring me
= steak at once" was amazed to find
raw steak clapped on the table
before him. To his expression Of
disgust came the reply, you
can't expect meat to be cooked #
you want it at once" Another
Gustomer had the temerity to
complain that his steak was
tough, A considerable space of
time elapsed befure he came again,
but Tyson, who forgot nothing,
was waiting Cor him. The grum.
bier called for a steak. Steaks
are tough" was the reply. Then
I'll have a chop" "Chops are

Nothing. II you can't be salts

customer who had exceeded bis

know window looking toward the west,
Where through long years, on each successive
day,
blessed,
Whose brow serene, by SHOWS OF age caressed'
Seemed lighted by some tranquil heavenly
ray.
over the worn sill, like restless tongues of
flame,
The NOTED sunshine threw its shafts of gold;
From the high elms the silent shadows came
And cooled the air, until the sweet acclaim
OF eyensong fullswelling bird threats told.
Dimly through those small panes, at wars shril
cry,
She saw two soldiers lastwaved fond fare

How soon she listened to the pines soft sigh
In yonder vale, where low her brave boys lie!
What made her face seraphic, who can tell?
Through conquest of each dire vicissitude,
Slave of infirmity, resigned she sat;
Blessing her houst hold, those without she
wooed
With strains of some sweet, heavenly interlu'e,
That hope undaunted and divine begat.
One bleak March eve the wind crept low and
sighed.
And sacred shadow deer ened through the

Save that she smiled, they knew not when she
died,
But saw the sinking sun had glorfed
Her window, as she gained the land of bloom.

CURIOUS LAMPS.

Nearly all the jelly fishes are lumin-
Gus, and on dark nights the sight as or Q
gazes into the water is marvellous one.
Instead of darkness and gloom, the
water appears to be filled with lights
which move in every direction. with long
tails like comets, others like mimic suns
and moons. These remarkable Great.
ures are 80 delicate that many can be
seen, but not felt. and nearly all are
ninety-ive per cent water; 80 that when
exposed to the sun they soon disappear,
evaporating like water itself. They
range in size from specimens just visi-
BILE to monsters almost capable of stop
ping boat, and with a maze of tenta-
cles sufficient to drown man or serious
ly poison him by the discharge of their
batteries of lasso cells.
One of the largest Jelly fishes ever soc n
in American waters was observed by
Mrs. Louis Agassiz. who found it float
ing on the surface in Massachutts Bay.
An oar was used to measure it, and
across the disc it was seven feet. while
the mass OF tentacles as they stretched
away was over one hundred feet in
length. Imagine this monster. this
mass of solidified water luminous, gil
gantic comet moving through the depths
of the ocean, each individual tentacle
standing out in high relief against the
dark water, and some conception may
be had of the sights to be seen beneath
the sea.
The light emitted by these iellyfshes
is called phosphorescence. but what it
is or how it is produced is more or less
mystery. In some it invests the en-
tire animal; 10 others the umbrella of
the jelly is the light-giving organ, while
in others it is confined to certain por-
lions of the body. The lights vary in
color. The common tint is yellow or
white, while blue. green and red are
seen, so that the iellies appear like gems
in the sea scintillating with all the tints
OF the diamond.
BY stirring small iellies violently the
writer has produced light by which
the time was told at night by watch;
and one luminous iellyfish placed in
twenty.seven ounces of milk produced
light so vivid that ordinary newspaper
print could be read several feet away.
More remarkable yet was the experience
of naturalist in the equatorial Paci6-
who stood on the shore of an island and
read book by the light of the breaking
waves. which were grinding up the frag-
lie fire-bodies, and making line OF fire
or light that reached away for miles.
The writer has witnessed a similar
phenomenon in extreme southern Flori-
ds. where the waves broke on a coral
reef, at night making a gradual curve of
