various holdings by that time. 1t is ex-
pected that his property will schedule not
less than s25,OOO.OOO.
The will covers five sheets of legal CAP
written on both sides. The wording is
comparatively simple, and the bulk of his
estate is left to the widow The next
largest share, it is said, will be Inherited

daughter of Mr.. Pullman. The two sons

the Chicago Orchestra, and 1t is believed
he provided in some manner for it. Several

GOLD AND SILVER PLATING.


4 Process That Il Described - eimp1o hy
Professional.
The following is o very simple method
for gold and silver plating: Take an
ounce Of nitrate Of silver, which II
made as follows: One ounce Of fine sill
yer, one ounce nitric acid, one-hah
ounce water. Put the silver into Flor
ence flask, then pour in the acid and
water. Place the flask ON the sand bath
for a few moments, taking care not to
apply too much heat, and as soon as
chemical action becomes violent remove
the flask to a cooler place and allow the
action to go ON until it Yearly slacks,
when. If there is any silver still remain
ing, the flask may be placed ON the bath
again until the silver disappesrs If the
acid employed is weak, it may be neces-
sary to add a little more. The red fumes
formed when chemical action is going
on disappear when the acid has done its
work.
The nitrate of silver formed during
the above operation should be poured
into a porcelain capsule and heated un-
til pellicle appears on the surface,
when it may be set aside to crystalline.
The uncrystallized liquor should be
poured from the crystals into another
vessel and heat applied until it has
evaporated sufficiently to crystallize.
Then you have nitrate Of silver. Take
an ounce of nitrate of silver, dissolve in
o quart of distilled rainwater. Wien
thoroughly dissolved, throw in few
crystals Of hyposulphite Of soda, which
will at first form brown precipitate,
but which becomes redissolved if enough
hyposulphite has been added. There
must be present slight excess of this
salt. The solution is now complete.
Take a sponge, dip it in the solution
and rub it over the work to be plated.
A solution of gold may be made in
the same way and applied as described.
a concentrated solution of either gold
or silver may be used for work that has
been worn off by applying it with a
camel's hair brush and touching it with
q strip of zinc. The writer has used this
method with the most satisfactory sue
cess. The gold or silver used in making
must be perfectly fine.-Jewelers' Cir

They DO Not Mind the Pennies.

Experience has made the men of the
fruit stands overcautious in handling
coin above the size of 10 cent piece.
The larger pieces they will test upon the
pavement or sink their teeth into in a
tentative fashion. 1t is to be noted,
however, that whenever customer
makes penny purchase they pocket his
change without scanning it-almost
hastily indeed. There is deep reason in
this procedure.
For one thing, nobody counterfeits
the cent piece; it is too cheap. For an
other thing, the fruit dealer knows that
no coin of smaller denomination is pass
ing into his hands. For third thing,
and this is the most important, there is
always chance that the customer is
deceived himself and is handing over q
nickel, a dime or one of the minor gold
pieces, under the impression that he is
paying but penny. If he looks satisfied
and starts to go away, he is not likely
to be called back to get the change. Oc-
casionally some such involuntary wind
fall comes the way of the fruit man.
