A Judicial Reproof.

A mellow old lawyer who used to
live on the banks of the Androscoggin
was famous for his fine distinctions.
But Often after the shades of night
had fallen the squire might have been
seen struggling home so booty that he
apparently could not split shingle,
to say nothing Of a hair. One night
when he was drunken than usual he
staggered completely out of his course
and could not find 1t. Realizing that he
was lost and drifting into unfamiliar
regions, he called at house to ask for
information. Madam" he gravely
said to the lady who came to the door,
candle in hand, "can you tell (hic) me
where Squire Blank livesW
Certainly" she said and gave him
full directions. But as she talked and
looked and as her candle gradually
brought out the features of the man
before her puzzled expression came
into her face, and she finally said, But
isn't this Squire BlankT
Madam" replied the old lawyer, as
Stunning judicial air, that is entirely

Tho Natural Products and Those OBJ.
tanned From Petroleum.
Naphtha is an inflammable liquid
which exudes from the soil in certain
parts of Persia. Subsequently the use
of the term spread to include some
volatile oils found in Europe and even
America. The product of the oil fields
Of southern Russia Is usually called
naphtha, although 1t differs In no way
from the ordinary grades Of petroleum.
Naphtha properly includes the light
er oils which pass off first In the dis
tillation Of petroleum, the GRANTEES
ranging from 90 to CO degrees Beaume.
Pennsylvania crude oil contains from
8 to 20 per cent Of naphtha. In the
refining of such naphtha several prod
ucts are obtained by fractional distilla-
ton. Those which pass off first
namely, rhigolene and cymogene-are
gases at ordinary temperatures and
are seldom saved. The next product
is known as gasoline, a material large
ly used in machines and for illuminat-
ing purposes. After this come stove
naphtha and gas naphtha, the latter
being the base of much of the illumi-
mating gas now made.
Petroleum naphtha is often treated
with chemicals to deodoriZe 1t. Naph-
tina may also be made in the distilla-
ton of wood and coal tar.-New York
