IN The TWILIGHT.
BY EDWARD II HLAk ENEi

over the dusky verge
of the quiet sea,
Slowly watch emerge
The silver rim
OF the crescent moon; pale. dim,
The soft stars, one by one,
With holy glee
seal out, and light their lamp-,
For day is done.
The tenpestS are asleep;
Only the balm
OF some cool evening wind
Ruffles the calm;
The listening ear Of Night
Can catch no sound
Save when, i'll slumbcr bound,
Earth turns and signs;
Peace rules the deep.
Aye, peace, across the dark,
Star-payed sky
The Night Queens silver bank
Goes gliding by;
With murmuring faint, the stream,
browse as they flow
In their hid channels; slow
Down dro pping dewS
Slide from the heaven, like CLEAN
OF lOvebOrn dreams.
Frail bIcaths Of violet,
OF roses fair.
Shy hints Of mignOncttc,
Rise through the air
From unseen gardens, there
Beneath my feet
All me, how at their spell
Swift fancicS rise.
What touching sympathIcS,
What golden memories,
And thoughts how sweet,

GOLD AND SILVER PLATING.
A Process That Is Described as Simple by
Professional.

Professional
The following is a very simple method
for gold and silver plating: Take an
ounce Of nitrate Of silver, which IS
made as follows: One ounce Of fine sill
yer, one ounce nitric acid, One-half
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 nearly slacks,
when, if there is any silver still remain
ing, the flask may be placed on the bath
again until the silver disappears. II the
acid employed is weak, it may be neces-
saTv to add Il little more. The red fumes
formed when chemical action is going
Oh disappear when the acid has done its
work.
The nitrate Of silver formed during
the above operation should be poured
into Il porcelain capsule and heated un-
til "a pcllicle appears On the surface,
when it may to set aside to crystalline.
The uncrvstallizcd liquor should be
poured from the crystals into another
vessel and heat applied until 1t has
evaporatcd sufficiently to crystallize.
Then -Ou have nitrate Of silver. Take
an ounce Of nitrate Of silver, dissolve in
a quart Of distilled rainwater. When
thoroughly dissolved, throw i'll few
crystals Of hyposulphite Of soda, which
Will at first form brown preclpltate,
but which becomes redissOlvCd II enough
hyposuIphite has been added. There
must be present Il slight excess OF this
salt The solution IS now complete
TAX Il sponge, dip it i'll the solution
and rub it over the work to be plated
\ solution Of gold may be made III
the same way and applied as described.
4 concentrated solution of either gold
or silver may be used for work that has
been worn off by applying it with a
c;umpl's hair brush and touching it with
a striD Of zinc. The writer has used this
method with the most satisfactory sue
cess. The gold or silver used i'll making
must be perfectly fine. Cir

Or. Mitchell and the Stranger.

DR.. Weir Mitchell Of Philadelphia
tells the following story on himself:
while travelling III England, he said,
Il fell into conversation with a stranger
who proved to be q man Of great intelli-
gence and culture. We discussed recent
novels. on which we spoke with much
freedom. l expressed my opinion Of
Tess, some parts Of which I thought
were very melodramatic, especial en-
phasis being laid on the first part of the
compound word In fact, said, they
are so mellow that they approach the
stage Of rottenness. AS we were parting
the gentleman said, You may be inter
ested in knowing that my name is
Thomas Hardy. New York Sun.

The monkey could pull its own sugar
out of the fire, but prefers to use the
paws of tho cats. Poor cats, how it
must hurt them! Yes, it does hurt
them II little. but they can stand it for
the sake of their good friend the mon
key. Perhaps they will get share Of
tho sugar, or if not that something else
which they like better Perhaps 1t is
certain that they have long been fast
friends of the monkey and that they
