The Art of Mosaic

The slab upon which the mosaic is
made is generally of travertine or Ii
burtine stones connected together by
iron clamps. Upon the surface of this
mastic or ccmcntmg paste is gradu-
ally spread as the progress of the work
requires it, which forms the adhesive
ground or bed upon which the mosaic
is laid. The mastjc is composed of fine
lime from burnt marble and finely
powdered travcrtinc stone mixed to the
conSlStcnce of a paste with lnSecd oil.
Into this paste are fixed the "smats"
OF which the mosaic picture is formed

willie loading, but that was more play
than work to the little girl. especially
so during the two days Il little friend
from town spent with her. Sings are
used in unloading. so there is no pitch
ing with a fork as Of wore. For help
III the NOV | use stout pole in the
center of the NOW running The cntir0
width of NOW mowS are Is by go.
The pole is placed us high as possible
in the barn. SO that when the sling goes
over the bay with its load it will be
just above the pole. which is so made
that it rcvolvcS either way; then if l
wish to put the hay ut the front of the
bay | step to the front of the load with
the trip rope, or if | want it at the
opposite side of the bay | step to the
back of the load. The few pounds it
takes to trip the sling is sufficient to
drop the heaviest part on that side of
the pole. and away goes the hay to its
intended place. MI that now remains
to be done is to level it off. Another
advantage in using the pole is that the
hay cannot drop in the center Of the
NOW. consequently now burning is
avoided
Last summer Il friend stopped in
just as drove in the barn with load
of hay. lie asked what that pole was
for When ] explained it to him he
said "Well, I'll 30 up in the NOW and
see how it works" After helping to
put away the load he said he would
rather have that arrangement than the
help of any man who had ever helped
him to NOW away hay. Further, as
the loader is quite heavy for light
weight man to handle alone, | have
fixed a long tongue so | can place it in
the front of the loader. and l can handle
it as | would a cart in putting it in
shelter. To hitch on to the wagon l
have arranged windlass and crank
to draw the loader TO its place, so as
not to have to do it by main strength.

A Pima Ence NYnah.

Here Is an enchanting recipe copied
from book on The toilet published In
1S34-in Boston, of course:
"a Wash to Give the Face a Younger
Look.-Take sulphur, one and one-half
ounces; G.. oliban and myrrh, two
ounces; amber six drains; rose
water, one and one-half pints. Distill
the whole in balneum mariae, wash
yourself with some at bedtime, and in
the morning with barley water, and
with the blessing Of God it will not
fail to give you younger look"
Where will you find such mingled
plety and shrewdness in modern beau
ty papers? Think how the ladies who
advertise some wonder working cream
or powder could spare their con.
sciences at the last great day If they
would only insert such clauses in the
recipes they give. And do not the
ingredients sound delightful? Amber,
which suggests Cleopatra and her
pearl (by the way, what a cosmetic
that should make, and &. oliban,
whatever it may belt sounds like the
name of a Christian Exchange

Some Words.

Spider" is a less attractive word
than Spinner" but it is really the
same. "Spither," the earlier form Of
the word, stood for splinter" mean
ing spinner-the disappearance of the
IN" before the 9Th" being compensated
for by the lengthening Of the vowel.
Just as tooth" really represents
''tonth." There was once in use another
word for the creature that was ugly
enough in meaning-"attercop which
appears in Wycllf's Bible. 1t signi-
fies poison bunch" and is still used in
the north Of England and in Antrim
Ireland, as an uncompllmentary term
for a shrewish person. From latter.

"cob," a bunch, to mean spider,
comes "cobweb."

CARE OF CANARIES.

A piece of cutie bone is needed al.
ways, and now and then a lump of
sugar.
Guard the cage from draft, from ex.
posture to cold at night and also from
too much heat.
Canary seed principally should be
given. though now and then Il little
rape seed is beneficial.
Do not use painted cage The bird
will peck the cage more or less, and the
paint thus imbbed is very injurious.
The larger the cage the better it is
for the birds, and if not new it should
be scalded and well dried before put
ting them into it.
Avoid frightening the birds in any
way. 1t is very easy to have them
know you and welcome your coming,
but they do not like to be handled
The cage should be thoroughly clean
ed every morning, placing Il piece of
clean brown paper, not newspaper, on
the bottom. Perches should also be
washed daily.

A Too Familiar Snake.

Seeing snakes is common expert
ence with the inhabitants Of India and
one unconnected with any suggestions
of bibulousness. An English nurse
tells of little boy who lived in the
next bungalow to hers and had his
bread and milk every day on the
ycranda sitting in a child's high chair.
One morning. hearing him talking and
growing to himself apparently. she was
paralyzed on looking out TO see him
gently tapping the head of a cobra
with his spoon, saying, Naughty,
naughty" The snake was drinking the
milk out Of the bowl, paying no heed
to the child In that mysterious coun-
try the snakes may be heard rustling
across the verandas and have an I'M
tidy habit of shedding their skins any
where.

Paris Green Injuries.

Potato leaves are frequently injured
by poisoning with paris green applied
dry or even with water only, giving an
effect resembling early blight, espe-
clally where flea beetles occur. By
using the arSenical poisons with lime
water or, better, bordeaux mixture
this injury is obviated as well as great
benefit gained from the protection
against fungous diseases which the
bordeaux affords. Many farmers use
paris green alone in very wasteful
and injurious manner, and frequent
cases of supposed blight are nothing
but paris green injuries. One pound
per acre mt each spraying is enough.

SPRAYING POTATOES.

the vine is often quickly followed by

Thus three sprayings gave a gain of
