THE HONEST SEWER CLEANER.
How lie Found His Way Into the Rich
est Room In the World.

Some time ago the directors Of the
Bank of England were startled 10 re-
ceivc an invitation to met an unknown
man in the strong room of the bank
at midnight. you think you are all
safe hand you bank is safe, but l

nobody" The strong room was guard
ed the next night in spite of dispo-
sition 20 regard the letter as hoax, by
police and-nothing happened.
The next phase of the mystery was
more astonishing than ever. A heavy
chest OF papers and securities taken
from the strong room arrived at the
bank with letter. complaining that
the directors had set the police upon
the writer. and that he had. there
fore. not appeared rs promised. but
To prove that he was neither thief
nor fool he sent q chest OF papers

few gentlemen be alone in the room
and he would join them at midnight,
said the writer. and to cut short a
long and strange chapter Of bank his
tory. n man with dark lantern burst
into the strong room Of the bank at
midnight after calling from behind
the stone walls for the directors to
put out the lights. He was one Of a
strange class of men who gained a
living Ivy searching the sewers at
night. and through an opening from
4 sewer he had found his way into
the richest room in the world.-St.

HOW To ENGRAyE GLASS.

a famous French chemist. Cailletet
has discovered very simple and easy
way to engrave glass.
The method Is to cover tumbler or
bottle or other glass object with n thin
smooth and thoroughly laid on covering
Of glue. Either very good cabinet
makers glue or fish glue will serve
perfectly.
The only care that must be taken is
TO see that there are no air bubbles in
the glue after IL has been applied, and
that the coating is uniform and Of even
thickness over the entire article.
Ordinary glass tumblers lend them
selves beautifully TO the experiment
Polished marble and the beautiful Ice
land feldspath also make good subjects
for the process. The very thin and
fragile glasses must not be used be-
cause they will break after the glue
begins 10 contract In the process oi
drying.
1t is this contraction that produces
the beautiful result.
Glue thus applied TO glass sticks to
" very tightly. Then Il begins TO con.
tract as IL dries. Now its tight hold
to the glass prevents the layers of glue
from contracting without pulling at the
glass, and thus little 10y little the glue
Sits and splits tiny fragments from
the surface of the glass.
III certain salts are added TO the glue
the effect Is still more beautiful. be-
cause then the splitting of the tiny
fragments 10 done In such a manner

When Boston Harbur Troze.

Boston Harbor froZc over in January
of 1874. and the advertised sailing OF
the Britannia. then in dock, seemed
surely TO be impossible. But the mer-
chants of Boston would not have 1t
so. They met and voted 10 cut a
way, at their own expense. through the
ice. that the steamer might sail prac-
tically on time. The contract for cut.
ting the necessary channels was given
TO merchants engaged. like Frederick
Tudor. in the export OF ice-not from
the harbor. Their task was 10 cut.
within the space OF three days a chan
mel about ten miles long. For tools
they had the best machinery used in
cutting fresh-water ice. and horse
power was employed. The ice was
from six to twelve inches in thickness.
As the Advertiser Of February ,. 1874.
described the scene: "A great many
persons have been attracted TO our
wharves =, witness the operations and
the curious spectacle Of the whole har-
bor frozen over. and the ice has been
covered by skaters. sleds and even
sleighs. Tents and booths were erected
upon the ice. and some parts Of the
harbor bore the appearance Of n Rus
sian holiday scene" on February 3
the work was done. and the Britannia.
steaming slowly through the lane OF
open water. lined on either side by
thousands OF cheering spectators, made
her way TO the sea. Whatever the
New York critics may have thought.
the English managers OF the company
must have felt that the people Of Bos-
ton w.re good friends to have.-At-
lantic.

Steering Big ships.

Marvellous progress has been made
in marine architecture and equipment
Within the past few years. There was
time when the whecl-house of n big
ocean steamer contained eight stalwart
men. who in rough weather would find
IL almost herculean task 10 manage
the wheel.
Nowadays the light touch of an in
fant's hand upon the wheel is OF SUE
ficlent power to turn a vessel complete
ly around. Huge boats are steercd by
steam apparatus which is as quick
and effective as ,hc touch upon the or
dinary electric button.

To Find Happiness.

No man shall ever find happiness while
seeking it for himself. The self-centrcd
man cannot be happy. He may ind gold,
he may acquire knowledge, he may achieve
fame, he may have pleasure in the world,
but all these cannot pour one ray OF genu-
inc bliss into a selfcentred soul. Let one
who is unhappy do what he can to relieve
the so.rows of others, and his own sorrow
will be turned into JOY. Let the burdened
soul do what he can TO bear the burdens of
Others: and his own burdens shall become
hight as air Let him whose life is bitter
lives of Others. and his own life will be-
come sweeter still. Let him whose life is
narrow do what he can TO enlarge the lives
Of others, and his own life will become
broad and deep and rich. Give, and It
shall be given unto you; good measure,
pressed down. and shaken together and
running over. Nashville Christian Advo-

Gods OnnnrtnnitY.

Some one has said that leach human life
is another opportunity for God to display
His grace and power" So it is and the
thought will grow upon you as yoI medi-
tate upon it. just think, Il am Gods op-
portunity" Isn't it wonderful, Isn't it
glorious! When we look at others whom
God has richly blessed and honored in ser
vice we can see how it is. but do we ever
think Of ourselves as Gods opportunity?
Every one that responds to Gods call,
"ComeW gives God large place n the
world. Every one who obeys Gods COM
mand. Co" assists God in gaining a arg-
er place in the hearts OF men. Every re-
generated heart and life is a new garden in
which God pants His seeds of love and
grace; a fountain out OF which flow con-
slant streams of healing power. Take it
home and say to yourself, Il am Gods cp-
portunity." BE that, and your life will be-
ience unspeakably sweet = Presbyterian

the clerk arriving at the hotel he was
set upon by two men and drugged. ard.
needless to add, he found on recovery
that his assallants had made good their
escape. The extraordinary sequel to
the episode lies in the fact that the
rogues had their trouble for nothing,
seeing that the stones which he dis
played consisted Of paste goods, worth
seem that the assistant charged with
the errand in question was also COM
missioncd to proceed afterwards TO an
