"Denatured" Alcohol.
New York Post.


In Germany alcohol for use in Industrial
processes is sold absolutely without restric-
ton, save that a license must first be pro-
cured from the authorities, but the alconol
for such purposes must first be "denatured'
or rendered unfit for drinking. The de-
natrriZing of the alcohol is done in the
presence of two revenue officials, and not
less than hectOlitre is treated at one time.
The denaturant is supplied by the govern
ment officials in sealed bottle and Is
added to the spirit In the presence of the
revenue agents. This mixture consists of
four parts of methy.ene and part of
pyridic bases extracted from coal tar, and is
added to the alcohol In the proportion Of
rs Itres to one hectolitre of pure spirit.
The total cost of denaturaliza ton does not
generally exceed ? cents per litre, and this
includes the travelling expenses OF the reve-
nue. ofticials. The spirit may then be sold
free,y, and the result Is that alcohol is re-
tailed in Berlin at the rate of IL cents per
quart. Should the use of the denaturant
mentioned render the alcohol unsuited for
any particular process the government per-
mits the substitution of other materials. In
such case the sale OF the spirit is sub
ject 10 restrictions and all sales have TO be
registered BY enforcing heavy penalties
honest users are protected and The con sump-
ton of alcohol In the arts Is exceeding
.arge, amounting In 1861 TO l9,l23,00O gal
lons. OF which about two-thirds was used
for heating, lighting and motive power.

RICH DRESS MATERIALS.
Velvets the Most Expensive of Staple
Goods, Laces the Costliest of All.

Goods, Laces the Costliest of All.
New York Sun.
The costllest of what might be described
as staple dress goods are velvets. Fine silk
veivets, in black and in colors. for recep-
ton, dinner and evening gowns, sell in regu-
lar widths up to So a yard, and In velvets
of extra widths as high as $50. The velvets
sold oftenest for dress goods are those at
prices under $40 yard.
The costliest Of fancy fabrics are satin
ground brooches. satin fabric in white, or
in some light color, with embossed velvet
figures in various colors and in floral and
in geometrical designs. The broche satins
duced in great variety and many of them
are of great beauty. Made twenty-one
inches wide they sell through wide range
OF prices up to SIS yard. There are wider
satins and velvet brooches imported in dress
patterns that are costier still. These goods,
in patterns from seven to eight yards each
grounds-but a single pattern In shade or
color imported-are sold at $50 dress pat
tern.

wide. for gowns, Is sold at prices ranging
for a skirt. The same lace could be used

1t will be borne In mind that these prices
represent the cost simply of the material
for the gown, without Innings or trimmings
or making up. What the finished gown
would cost might depend on variety OF
considerations. A gown of satin and velvet
broche costing, say. $3.50 a yard. might
cost completed, $500 or 5000. A gown from
any of these materials would obviously be
costly
Dress goods Of these very costly kinds are
not. of Course. articles of common SALE but
they are not of unusual sale. The pur-
chasers include not only customers living
here in the city, but others from among
people of means living in all parts of the
country, who for goods of this sort, as well
as for many other articles of use and lux
ury, come to New York.

This life Is n feeting breath.

BY q path that / do not know?
Shall find the throne OF the moon
And kneel with her lovers there
To pray for cold sweet boon
From her beauty. cold and fair?

And warm at his passionate fire
Ny heart by sorrow undone.
And sick with a vain desire?
Shall steal into twilight-land.
When the sun and the moon are low,
And bark 10 the furtive band
OF the winds that whispering go
Telling and telling again.
And grooming with scornful mirth,
The secrets Of women and men
They overheard on the earth?
VIII the dead birds sing once more.
And the nightingaie's note be sad.
With the passion and longing Of yore,
And the thrushes with Joy go mad?
Nay. what though they carol again.
And the flowers spring 10 life at my feet,
Can they heal the sting OF my pain.
Or quicken a dead hearts heat7
What care for Moon for stars.
Or the sun on his royal way7
Only somewhere. beyond earth's bars.
