Selecting Glassware.

To select glass with discretion 1t Is
necessary to understand somewhat OF
its manufacture, and to recall the
properties OF the chemicals of which it
Is composed. These materials are
chiefly soda, potash, lime, alumina and
oxide of lead. The quality Of the glass
to be manufactured depends upon the
amount of the basic material uniteo
with the silica or sand. The best glass
Is made With lead, which gives to II
~luster, fusibility and high refractory
powers. II is often called flint glass,
to distinguish it from lime glass, which
Is much cheaper and of a decidedly
greenish tint. Flint glass is that which
is most generally used for cutting and
polishing. 1t may be picked III by the
clear, bell-like tone which 1t sends
forth when struck. This test may be
made without any danger of breaking
the glass. If it be held firmly in n
hand while the upper parts or edge, is
sharply struck with a pencil OF other
instrument, the only care requisite be-
ing to see that the glass does not touch
any object when it is struck, since, If
there De room for it TO vibrate, glass
will eve break.-Harper's Bazaar.

An Art in which Our Versatile Cons
ms, the French People, Are Unri-
vailed.
France is the incarnation Of the
Muse OF History, inasmuch as she is
never idle. Her mode OF making history
Is distinct from hat of any other ma
ton, and especially from ours. Eng
land makes history in a matter-of-fact.
utterly unhistrionic and utterly non-
spectacular way; just as her best his
torians record it in a sober, solid and
and often the reverse of brilliant man
ner. Our Incidents are not magnified
into episodes. and our episodes are not
inflated TO the size of conclusive events.
There is no concerted, orchestral ac-
compartment to our rejoicings; on the
contrary, there is much cacophony I'M
der the name Of cheering. We are ions
who roar like bulls of Bashan; we are
the most materially civilized people on
the face of the globe who cannot COM
bine to decorate or illuminate a single
thoroughfare in q thoroughly artistic
manner.
On the other hand, there is no yelling
of Treason" at the slightest reserve.
We are, In fact, a staid, unimaginative
people, who take our pleasures not
"moult tristement," as Froissard had
1t, but sedately, until our animal spir-
Its get the better OF us, n find vent
in the aforesaid Bull-of-Bashan roars.
But our cheerfulness is, for all that,
V exhausted, and the largest stock
of 1t is reserved for duty" in the case
OF misfortune. Our cheerfulness is the
bootjack of our resignation.-Illus-
trated London News.

The Chinese Language Has No Gram
NAUTICAL Rule=, But Is Made Up of
Many Dialects.

The Chinese Language Has No Gram
mnffcal Rule=, But Ii Made Up of
Many Dialects.
Paradoxical though it may sound. we
are strictly within the limits Of accu-
racy when we say hat Chinese is, at
the same time, h simplest and most
difficult language in the world; most
simple from the absence of those gram
NAUTICAL rules and infiectional forms
which vex the student of European
languages; most difficult because Of
the combination of different languages
and all known as Chinese.
The book" Chinese is never spoken,
while the colloquial in written form
would merit the supreme contempt of
percillious scholar.
The written character is universally
the same throughout the empire; but
each province, city, town and village
seems to a reserved the right to in
vent it's own pronunciation of those
written words which are common to
the whole nation, and which constitute
an eternal and ~inseparable bond which
will link the eighteen provinces to-
gether as long as China remains a ma
ton.
The possibility Of two Cinnamon
meeting each other, and, while each
speaks Chinese, being unable to in
dulge in mutual conversation in that
language, will at onee serve forcibly to
illustrate the pronounced differences
Of the Monaghan tongue.
1t would be more correct to say that
China possesses a number Of lam
guages. distinct and separate, and
each subdivided into numeros dialects.
a linguistic condition which at once
suggests the absence Of railroads or
other means Of bringing the various
p~rovincials into conversational con-
tact with each other.-Frederick Poole,
In New Lippincott.
