Tlm 1'lrst ltitlloon Aneent.
It wns on tho Mh of Juno, 17B.1, that tho
small town of Annouay, near Lyons, Franco,
was In a state of great excitement, as Jiwoph
Montgolllor and his brother had pnnniscd to
exhibit a balloon ascent an unheard of
thing, Incredible, as most thought. At tho
appointed hour n crowd gathered to witness
th'j novel sirctaclo. Nothing, liowever, was
vislbla but immonso folds of patwr, 1,110 feet
in clrctmifereuco, fitted lo a frntno weighing
COO pounds nnd containing 22,000 cubic foct.
To tho astonishment of nil it wns announced
that thh balloon would Ixj II Hod with gas and
would rlso to tho clouds on tho application of
flro underneath. Tho mass gradually un
folded nnd nssumod thoform of a largo
globo. At length it rose witli great rapidity,
and In less than ton minutes was nt nu im
menoo elevation nnd then gradually sank.
This balloon contained nothing but boated
air rnrollcd by flro, tho rcccptaclo of which
wns attached underneath tho globo of papor,
which had an orifleo opening downward.
Thcro have boon many Btorios rotated as to
what gavo tho first idea of such n machino as
tho balloon somo asserting that it was
Joseph who first caught tho notion by watch
ing tho smoko as it ascended tho chimnoys.
Various experiment woro afterward mado
in Paris previous to tho timo when men
freely trusted themselves to theno hazardous
conveyances.
Joseph Montgolflor died on tho 20th of
June, 1810, having survived his brothor
olovon years. When Bonaparte, then first

who had contributed to tho advancement of

Tlm Newfoundland Dog.
Tho present rngo for j.ict dogs has served to
put in tho background tho uoblo brood ot
Newfoundlands. Tills ought not to lie, for a
first class Newfoundland dog is not only a
handsomo, nnblo animal, but Is n useful ono
as well, nud ns a comiwinlon and guardian for
children is uncqualod. Thoy seem to tnko to
guarding their master's children as n matter
of courso, accompanying them on tholr ram
bios, and their skill In rescuing children from
tho water Is proverbial. Thoy aro very
cleanly In their habits, and nt night will care
fully guard tho promises. Thoy enn readily
bo taught to pull children's wagons, giving
tho llttlo folks a cbnnco to "play horso" on a
small scale, whilo thoy soon learn to carry
bundles and baskets to and from market or
store. Thoy attain a weight of from 125 to
100 or 170 pounds. First class pups readily
bring from ?25 to fSO each. In color tho
Newfoundland Is cither solid black or black
in main color, witli ring of white around
