rooms-all with equipment more or less
perfect according TO the price. And cars
are rehtted in this way and sold for prices
varying from $500 To $1,000.
Very handsome and serviceable cars have

tricks by the exercise of a little care. To
make a bubble rest upon a flower dip a

To make bubbles and noise dip the end
OF an ordinary tin fish horn well into the

bubble has been formed. Then four or five
loud blasts may be sounded on the horn
without injuring the bubble in the least.
To make six bubbles inside OF one an

center OF this first bubble and blow an
other. Continue in this manner until the
bubbles have all been placed.

II is interesting 10 watch goldbeaters al
work In a gold leaf factory. These men.
whose skins are sallow from the stains OF
gold. take up ingots first OF the virgin
metal, pass them between steel rollers,
whence they come forth like pie crust. and
pass them through closer and closer rollers
until they are but little thicker than paper.
The sheets OF gold are next placed between
pieces OF leather that are called goldbeat-
ers' skins. ana men beat them through the
skins with mallets until they are reduced
10 an unimaginable tenuity. II has often
been proven that a skilled goldbeater can
turn out gold leaves so thin that II would
take $4,000 OF them to make the thickness
OF an inch; so thin that. II formed IN a
