From the description this old stove
is something after the fashion of the
one which we have here in our state
capitol. II stands upon legs or end
supports, similar to those Of a sewing
machine, only that they are about half
as high and of much heavier casting.
The total weight OF the stove is 500
pounds. II is three feet long, thirty.

with a hearth extending in front.
There is no CRATE in the bottom, the

Violins Made from Clay.

An old Scotch proverb says: You
cant make a silk purse out Of a sow's
ear" II seems to the ordinary person
that it would be quite as impossible
to make a good violin out of clay, but
it has been done. A well-known
ufacturer of the Messein ocarinas and
porcelain organus has invented a proc
ess for the manufacture of violins and
mandolins from clay. Some violins
have already been completed, and the
inventor has applied for letters patent
for the same in different countries.
Under this process the violins are cast
and every violin Is guaranteed a sue
cess and to be excellent for producing
music. The latter quality constitutes
precisely the chief value OF this In.
vention. The porcelain body. II is
claimed, is better able to produce
sound than a wooden one. since IL co
operates In the production Of sound,
making the notes soft and full.

Februarys Without Full Noon.

A correspondent corrects some err
roneous statements about a month
with no full moon. which appeared
recently In a paragraph quoted from
a Missouri paper. "As a matter OF
fact" he says, the month OF Febru-
airy, 1886, had a full moon, which fell
on the 18th, as reference to the al
manac for that year will show. The
month OF February, 1893, however,
had no full moon, nor did that of 1866,
and this Is no %infrequent occurrence,
but happens every twenty or thirty
years. The month Of February hav-
ing, except in leap year, only twenty
eight days, and the moons phases be-
ing separated by an average period
OF Twenty-Five days, 1t OF necessity
follows that in February frequently
only three such phases ecu The
phenomena is therefore neither rare
nor OF any interest, and the only won
der is who could first have started so
foolish a story as that no month
without a full noe had occurred
since the creation OF the world, nor
would recur again for two and a half
million years,"-New York Tribune.
