To asceiitain if a mineral contains
copper, it is only necessary to pulverize
a portion of it, dissolve it in strong nitric
a id (aquafortis), and dilute a portion of
the clear solution, which will probably
be blue, until almost colorless, then add
ammonia carefully. If copper is present
t lie color will become an intense blue.

Tiietie is a great deal of needless foar
and positive sutlering caused by the
dread of stinging insects which are met
with in the fields or enter the dwell

house, or if you are among bees at work
on the flowers, 3-011 need have no more
fear of an attack than if each bee were a
liy. A bee if caught in the hand and
pinched will sting, no matter where it is,
but it will never volunteer an attack un
less in defense of its hive. Cross bees
vi'ij attack 3-ou if vou go neartheirhives,
but when at work in the fields, or if they
happen to come into the house, never.
We have caucht hundreds of bees in the
hand when they were at work upon
flowers, and, unless pinched, they' will
never sting. If held loosely in the hand
they will not cease to try to get out at
each little crevice where light enters, but
no matter how long you hold them they
will not sting. We believe the same
will hold good with all stinging insects,
that they cannot be made to stinx except
in defense of their homes or their lives.

Coining.
The operations conducted at the pri
vate mint at Birmingham, England, as
we learn from an interesting report in
Iron, are as follows:
The raw material consists of immense
quantities of copper in ingots for bronze
coinage, and "cakes" of the same metal
for copper coinage. The metal used for
the bronze coins is composed ot ninetj--five
parts of copper, four parts of tin,
and one part of spelter or zinc. The
metal is first taken to the casting shop
and there melted and run into molds of
the required length. The processes of
casting being almost the same for all
purposes there is no need of giving a
minute or detailed description of the
operation.
The strips of metal when cast are
taken to the rolling mills. The slabs of
metal are first passed through the heavy
revolving cylinders, and the pressure is
so great to which they arc subjected that
they are rolled into much longer and, of
course, thinner strips. They are next
submitted to the ordeal of tire, and an
nealed. They are submitted to this proc
ess of rolling until the requisite thick
ness, or rather thinness, is obtained. A
slab which is at first only some fifteen
inches long is rolled out to six feet in
length. It is then placed once more in
the annealing oven, " pickled" by being
piissed through acid, then cleaned and
scoured. Each slip has to be gauged
with the utmost nicety after it has un
dergone these processes, to ascertain
whether it is of equal thickness through-
UAfter being approved the strips are
taken to the cut ting-out-room, where they
are passed under a press, and bits of cir
cular metal of the size required are cut
out and dropped into receptacles be
nettli These bits of plain metal are ap
propriately called "blanks," and are cut
with almost incredible rapidity. One
rress produces 750 a minute, and m th
Sunt the number of presses emploved
arc capable of producing over 3,000,000
of blanks a day. After being cut the
blanks are tested by being passed through
a machine, which is so nicely aiflusted
that any irregularity or imperfection is
detected, and the tares are separated
trom the wheat. The blanks which pass
successfully through the trial have also
to be annealed. For this purpose they
are " put into small iron pots, the lids of
which are carefully adjusted, and tue
junctions stopped with clay, and placed
in the oven, where they remain generally
about three-quarters of an hour. They
are then allowed to cool gradually,
passed through a solution 01 acid, and
in their wet condition arc placed in a
revolving wooden drum, together with a
quantity of routrli sawdust. The motion
of the drum causes the sawdust to
escape through small apertures provided
for the purpose, and by the time the
blanks arc dry usually in twenty min
utes all discolorations have been re
moved and a uniform bright color at
tained. They are then ready to receive
the finishing stroke the in.prcssion
which shall cause them to be universally
recognized as tokens of value."
Two dies arc required for each coin;
the one for obverse, the other for re
verse. These arc engraved on the best
steel, but the original dies are not used
in making the impressions on the coins.
For this purpose a punch is made, and
from this punch the molds by which the
the coins are made arc taken by press
ure. The pressure required for this pur
pose is at least forty tons. The molds
are made on the surface of pieces of
steel, the diameter of which is u little
larger than the coin to be made. So
great is the pressure of the striking
hammer that the slightest Haw in the
steel used is fatal to the working die, for
it comes from under the machine ex
hibiting a large rent wherever the flaw
may be. The importance of this power
of multiplying dies will at once be manl
iest, sometimes tJiey are destroyed m
a few minutes, lasting, we learned, on
an average not more than two days; but
the original die, which represents a fort
night's skilled work, remains perfect for
the production of other punches to be
used in making working dies.
i ne coining is a very simple process.
and is now rendered almost noiseless bv
iiuproved machinery. In each press is a
movable steel slide, in the center of
which is a circular hole the size of the
die, called a collar. The blanks to be
impressed are placed in a Ions: brass
tube, called a feeder or hopper. From
mis ieeuer one uianK drops into the
collar with each movement of the slide.

Old Fashions.
Lv England, in the time of Scvcrus. the
most northern Britons were entirr-lv
without clothing, and to this thev wen-
hardened by use. A part, however, of
the inhabitants had better covering, and
were attired with skins; and after, as
civility grew under the Komans, they
assumed the Itoman habit.
The English, at the first arrival of the
Romans, used long jackets, and were
shaved on the head, saving about the
crown. Afterward they wore loose and
large white garments, with broad lace of
divers colors, as the Lombards. Some
what before the Conquest they were all
dressed very gay with coats to the mid
knee, the head shorn, the beard shaved,
their arms laden with bracelets, and
their faces painted.
"Whosoever will enter into this argu
ment since the Conquest, his pen may
have a spacious walk; but as I propos'e
to be brief I will omit the royal habits
of Kings at their ooronations, the mantle
of St. Edward, the dalmatica with
sleeves, the sacerdotal garment, their
hose and sandals, as also the honorable
habiliments, as robes of state, etc. Of
these matters each would require a
treatise. I will briefly note what I have
observed more generally in 1113' little
reading.
Robert, eldest son to the Conqueror,
used short hose, or stockings, and there
upon was named Court-hose, as he
showed first the use of them to the En
glish. King Henry I. reprehended much of
the immodesty of apparel in his days.
The particulars arc not specified ; but the
wearing of long hair, with locks and
perukes, he abolished.
King Henry II. brought in the short
mantle, and he therefore had the name
of Court-mantle. In his time silk was
brought out of Greece into Sicily, and
then into, othf r parts of Christendom.
There was also a costly stuff at those
times in England called by the people
aurifrisium; what it was named in En
glish I know not, but imagine it to sig
nify embroidery with gold. "Whatsoever
it was, it was much desired by the
1'opes, and highly esteemed in Italy.
What the habits, both civil and mili
tary, wern in the time of King John,
Henry III. and the succeeding ages
may better appear by their monuments,
old glass windows, and ancient arms,
than be found in writers of those times
as also the robes (which the King then
allowed to each Knight when lie was
dubbed) of green or burnet. Neither is
it to be doubted but successive time and
English mutability brought in continual
ly new cuts, as in the time of King Ed
ward III., which may be understood by
th 13 rh3-me, then made:
I.oiijr heard, heartless,
I'ni uteri hood, witlet?.",
(iny coats, frracelew.
Make England thriliK-s."
Many statutes were made to prevent
the abuses of dress; an ancient history
called Kulorjium proves no less. 44 The
Commons (saith he) were besotted in
excess of apparel, in wide fur coats
reaching to their loins, some in a garment
reaching to their heels close before, and
strutting out on the sides, so that on the
back they make men seem women, and
this they call by a ridiculous name
gown. Their hoods are little, tied under
the chin, and buttoned like the women,
but set with gold, silver and precious
stones. Their girdles are of gold and
silver, some worth twenty marks. Their
shoes and pattens are snouted and piked
more than a finger long, crooked upward.
and fastened to the knees with chains of
gold and silver. And thus were they
garmented who (as this author saith)
were lions in the hail and hares in the
field. The book of Worcester reporteih
that in the year VJiVj they began to use
caps of different colors, especially red,
with costly linings; and in i:J7 they first
began to wear a new round short garment
called the cloak." Here 3-ou may see
when gowns, cloaks and caps first came
in use, though, doubtless, they had some
such l;ke attire in different names.
How strangely the3' were attired in the
times of King Richard II. Chaucer w ill
tell us: 44 Alas, may not a man see, as
in our days, the sinlul costly array of
clothing, and namely in too much super
fluity of clothing, such that maketh it
so dear, to the harm of the people, not
only the cost of embroidering, the dis
guised indenting, or barring, ounding,
plaiting, winding, or bending, and sem
blablc waste of cloth in vanity; but there
is also the costly furring in their gowns,
so much pouncing of Vhissel to' make
holes, so much d igging of sheirs forche,
with the superfluity in length of the
aforesaid gowns trailing in the mire, on
horse and also on foot, as well of man
as of woman, tnat all that trailing is
verily as in effect wasted, consumed,
ami threadbare, rather than given to the
poor."
They had also, about this time, a kind
of gown called a git, or jacket without
sleeves; a loose cloak like a herald's coat
of arms, called a tabard; short breeches
called a court pie; a gorget called a
chevesail, for as yet they used no bands
about their neck. Queen Anne, w ife to
Richard II., who first taught English
women to ride on side-saddles, as before
they rode astride, brought in high head
attire, piked with horns, and long-trained
gowns for women.
Not many years after foolish pride so
descended to the adorning of the foot
that it was proclaimed that no man
should have his shoes broader at the toes
than six inches.
Neither was the clergy clear from thU
pride, as we may perceive from Fierce
Plowman, though we are assured that
the clergy never wore silk or velvet un
til the time of the pompous Cardinal
Wolsey, who opened that door to pride
among them.
The variations in our dress since that
time arc too well known to be mentioned
here: we shall only, therefore, conclude
with observing that even in this age of
lxury we have no great reason to think
ourselves more absurd in point of dress
than our ancestors, and that the only
difference between us lies rather in the
peculiarity of our fashions than the prev
alence of absurdity in the other. Har

The Glass-Eye Trade In the United
States.
It is not generally known that the en
tire irlass-eve business of the United
States is in the hands of one firm
and but few people have any idea of the
immensity of their business. There is in
the United States a deficit of some 60,000
eyes. Of this number about 23,000 make
use of glass C3'es. To supply these4' bully
- . 1 1 . . I l
rxys w nu giass-cycs at least 100 speci
mens of optics are manufactured. Some
rich, aristocratic old gentlemen have
their eyes made to order. These are
manufactured by hand with great care
and nicety, a certain fire and vigor being
thrown into them more than realistic.
V e know a Mr. Johnson who is greatly
improved uy wearing one of these glass
eyes. 1 lie young ladies dote on him, and
say he looks like a poet, 44 his eye with
such fine frenzy rolling." Such arsome
of the advantages of a glass eve.
The cheapest kind of eves are the light
blue, ihese are sold in large quantities
The poor people who cannot afford luxu
nes usually wear these, whatever the
color of their natural optics. When a
man has a genuine black eye supple
mented by one of dim, dismal blue it
produces a weird effect. This strange
appearance is still more heightened when
the blac k eye gives evidence of a glass or
so too much of whisky: its contrast
with the sleepy soberness of the blue eye
is apt to astonish, a stranger.
several 3'ears ago this sole glass-eve
estalbishment was burned out in the big
fire in Pittsburgh. The sorrow, the ruin,
the misery this caused can only be appre
ciated by a one-eyed man. Almost all
had to content themselves with second
hand eyes, dim, and considerably the
worse for wear and tear.
A well-known merchant of New York,
who was wanting in optics, dissected a
doll of his daughter to procure an ej-e, so
that he might appear m society decently,
and a poor man in this very city, in a
similar strait, made use of those large
variegated crystals of which children are
so lond. J lis eye ot many colors pro
duced quite a sensation, and the
manufacturers threw a quantity of
Dolly Varden eyes on the market, but
somehow thc3' did not take and become
the fashion, and the cargo was an entire
loss.
The United States firm have almost
entirely banished the French glass
eye from this continent; the English eye
never took well here, was never popular.
They are now engaged in supplying the
c111ne.se market, and liave invented a
new patented aquiline e3'e just suited for
the .Mongolians. 1 hev are also patentees
of the strabismic glass ej-e, suitable for
cross or cock-e3"ed people.
With each dozen glass e3'es a copy of
directions how to wear glass eyes is
sent. It is to be hoped that this book
will be studied, as some of our best citi
zens display a disgraceful carelessness in
the manner in which they wear their
C3'es. lo he glaredat with an C3c upside
down is apt to disturb a man: indeed, it
is extremely disagreeable. JTew Orleans

Ice in Iiidi.f.
What possible connection can there fee
between Lake Ontario and India? The
one lies between the United States and
Canada, where the winter cold seizes
upon the rolling waves and binds them
tight and fast. The other, tliousands of.
miles awaj-, burns and dries under a
tropical sun. But it is this very contrast
that brings them together. Lake Ontario
cools ami refreshes the people living on
the East Indian coast. And this is the
way the good work is brought about :
Lake Ontario is so situated that in
winter it freezes over a great part of its
surface, forming ice several feet in
thickness, fine grained, compact, and of
beautiful transparency. As soon as the
ice is iairly. lormed the ice companies
set a small army ot men at work to take
it away, and tbey are kept busy all the
season. Some are on the lake cutting
out the ice in huge cubic blocks; others
stow them away in the wagons which are
to convey them to the ice-houses near
the lake, where they are deposited tem
porarily; some are at work at these
houses receiving the ice and putting it
in the buildings; others, again, are taking
out the ice that has been waiting for
transportation, and loading with it the
cars in which it is to be conve3'ed to the
different cities in the United States. The
scene is a lively and busy one, and this
ice business gives employment to a great
number of men.
The ice intended for India is sent to
Boston, and is there shipped as soon as
possible. A good many vessels are em
ployed in this service. The holds of
these ships must be made rery cold be
fore the ice can be packed into them
with safety, and this is done by letting
down blocks of ice, and as soon as these
melt, the water is drawn oil" and others
are put in. The second blocks do not
melt quite so soon as the first, and
then others arc let down; and the
process is continued until the tempera
ture is so low that the ice does not melt
at all.
The hold is now ready to be filled for
the long voyage. A thick bed of saw
dust is laid on the bottom and upon this
blocks of ice are carefully and closely
placed, forming a smooth, icy floor. This
is covered with a light layer of sawdust.
Upon this blocks of ice are packed as
before; then another la3'er of sawdust;
another stratum of ice blocks; and so on
until the hold is filled. This pac king has
to be done quickly or the ice would
soften somewhat wrhile exposed to the
air. Great cranes moved by steam lift
the enormous blocks of ice from the
storehouse or wharf, swing them over
the vessel and lower them into the hold,
w here the men stow them away. Steam
works rapidly and the labor goes on da3'
and night. When the hold is filled the
hatches are fastened down and calked
and the precious freight is safely shut up
in the cold and darkness, and" the ship
starts off as soon as possible on her long
voyage. These vessels are built for fast
sailers; but, at the best, it takes a very
longtime to reach India. During part
of the voyage the tropical sun pours its
heat upon the decks: but when the ship
gains her port and the hatches are
opened and the work of unloading com
mences the blocks of ice taken out are as
perfect as when they were put in!
The unloading once begun, it is carried
on without intermission until the hold is
emptied, the workmen relieving each
other; but it cannot be done quite as
rapidly as the loading. Some of the
sailors, dressed in their warmest winter
clothing, are down in the hold cutting
apart the blocks which have become
frozen together, placing the ropes around
them, and fastening "them to the cable
that passes over the pulley. Other
sailors and native East Indians arc on
the deck, where it is so hot that they are
glad to dress very lightly. They are
pulling at the ropes and in this vay
hauling the ice out of the bold. Others
are conveying it to the depots on the
shore, where it is stored away in vast
quantities. Near these may "be seen
groups of natives waiting to be served
with ice, which is to be carried to the
hotels and other houses. Some of these
natives have already been served, and
have started upon their journey into the
city, six or eight of them bearing a
framework of bamboo sticks and cords,
in which is suspended a monstrous bloc k
of ice as beautiful and transparent as
rock crystal.
And, after all the lnlmr at Lake On
tario, aftr the transportation to Boston,
the loading and unloading of the vessels,
the sums of money that must be paid to
so many workmen, and the voyage of
several thousand miles, ire can be
bought in the cities of India, in ordiaary
seasons, at three cents a pound! From

If by chance your wash-boiler should
spring aleak when filled with clothes
over a brisk fire, carefully press the
clothes away from the side of the leak
and sift a small spoonful of Indian meal
over the water; the leak will close im
mediately. Various means have been resorted to
to relieve choked animals; some recom
mend tying up one forward leg and forc
ing the animal to hobble along; the
ellort will cause the obstruction to b
thrown from the throat. Another rem
edy given is to raise the head of the
animal as if for drenching, and throwing
down iU throat a broken hen's egg.
The manufacturers can test a new ma
chine and ascertain by a few simple
trials whether it will manufacture the
desired article cheaper or better than
the old one; but to ascertain how a
pound of beef can be made the cheapest,
what machine will convert hay into rich
cheese in the cheapest and best manner,
is a matter requiring a good deal more
care and skill.
So loxo as an egg is an egg and they
are sold by count farmers will not be in

A Home-Made Barometer. What is
known as Babinet's baroscope is a simple
and convenient instrument for foretell
ing a storm by change of atmospheric
pressure. To construct it, take any bot
tle and pour colored water into it to
one-fourth its depth, insert in it a glass
tube from three to lour feet long and
passing air-tight through the stopper,
which must also be air-tight. Let a
paper index, divided according to any
scale of division, say into inches and
fractions of an inch, be glued to the
glass tube. Blow into the glass tube so
as to cause the water to rise in it a few
inches, say ten inches, and the instru
ment is constructed. The bottle must be
placed in another vessel and protected
by sawdust or some other material from
the influence of change in the atmos
phere. This very sensible instrument
records faithfully any changes in the
density of the external air, and the an.
proach of a storm w ill be indicated by a
sudden rise of the water in the glass tube
Danger of Feeding

ago. Hatched out a brood of fourteen
little one. Soon after their birth these
new-comers suddenly disappeared, much
to the vexation of their owner, who
sought in vain for them in every spot
whither they could have strayed. One
day the mother's oft-repeated "calls were
answered by cries from the barnyard of
Farmer B . The police were called
into consultation, and on the suspected
premises found a cage containing ten
little turkeys, which Monsieur C
swore were his property. B and his
wife both protested earnestly that they
were innocent of any wrong, but the
matter was brought into the courts. At
the trial the Judge was puzzled how to
proceed, but, acting on the advice of a
naturalist, he set the chicks in the pres
ence of the hen belonging to B . She
instantly flew at them anil pecked them.
The other hen was then led into the
arena, and the voice of nature was loud
ly eloquent. Spreading her wings, the
old fowl called the brood and they took
shelter in their accustomed place, utter
ing loud cries of joy. The mother
inarched off in triumph ; the court pro
nounced this proof decisive; and Farmer
B and his wife were arrested, tried
and condemned to two months' imprisonment.

Ail Elephant'4 Revenge.
At Sacramento, a few weeks
some leiiow at a menagerie gave a
of tobacco to an elephant, w hich caused
the animal to give way to a terrible fit of
anger. It seized the nearest object upon
which to wreak its vengeance, and this
proved to be the eleven-year old son of a
.Mr. II. W. Luhrs. The great beast
wound his trunk about the boy and
squeezed him so tightly as to break his
right arm between the elbow and the
wrist and to severely bruise his body.
Icing compelled to release his hold of
the bov, the enraged animal, as soon as
the lad dropped, again attempted to seize
him, and in the effort came near taking
the youth's head oft. It was on all hands
considered more than fortunate that the
animal did not cast him dow n and tram
ple him to death, and also fortunate that
the angered brute did not run a muck in
the crowd, as elephants have done when
tobacco has been given them. The boy
was not dangerously hurt. Such a trick
may have seemed ven- funny to the fel
low who phtyed it, but it would have
been more generally satisfactory had the
elephant given him the hug instead of
injuring au innocent boy.
Best Organs on Most Favorable Terms
Cabinet or Farlor Organs are capital
mings ior peddlers lo work with, be
cause very poor ones can be made at
half the cost of good ones, and few pco
pie are competent to tell the difference
trom a first examination. Manufacturers
print in their catalogues prices which
are three or four times as high as the
value of such cheap work. Then the
peddler starts out and puts them on the
people in various ways. He sells at an
enormous discount, if he can get cash
takes part trade if necessary, or leaves
the organ awhile on trial, and sells it on
long time at 44 rnanulacturer s price," ex
hibitmg the catalogue to show that it is
such, or even at a discount from thi
which he can well afford.
The Mason fc Hamlin Organ Co. have
recentH' announced a plan which is like
ly to interfere with this business. This
company, as is well known, makes only
tne best work, wnicn, by its uniform ex
ccllcncc, has obtained the highest repu
tation for their organs. They proved the
best, and obtained the highest awards at
the recent V lenna and Paris W orld's Ex
positions, as they have uniformly done
in American industrial competitions
The fact that these organs are the best
in the world is indeed too well established
to need further indorsement.
The company have now added a large
new factory to their former extensive
works, and design to greatly increase
their business. This they propose to do
by offering organs for time pa3'ments, or
for rent with privilege of purchase, at
barely suihcient advance on the cash
prices to afford a reasonable interest for
the time. An organ may be hired by the
quarter with privilege of purchase at any
time in one year or longer. If purchased
within the 3rear, the whole cost, including
rent paid, is only o to 10 per cent, more
than if the cash had been paid down at
the beginning.
Persons having any idea of purchas
ing will be wise to send a note to the
Mason & Hamlin Co., at either Boston
New York or Chicago, and obtain Hick
new circulars, before purchasing.

IkarSir Your favor is jast received. I in
tended to have written to 3-011 several weeks
since concerning the improvement 111 in v
health which is now very apparent. I have
used one bottle of Favorite Prescription with
the best results, although I will admit I was
somewhat discouraged after its use (for n
ehort time 01113-). I took it under very disad
vantageous circumstances having the super
vision of the house and during the season of
44 house-cleaning" I was obliged, through th
incompetency of help, to do more than 1
ought, and, of course, suffered dreadfully.
in tea wlien 1 ought not to have raised un
hand, and did all 1 could to bring 44 orderout
of chaos" but upon laying aside all cares aiid
continuing the reiiicuy 1 lind after using le
than one bottle to be so much benefited that
I have discontinued the use, with no return
of the svmptoms of which I wrote vou. I
have suffered terriblv, and what added to m
distress was the consciousness of not procur
ing relief from ordinary sources; at times it
seemed about impossible to stand, so great
was the distress. All of those severe neural
gie pains have disappeared; thev were so bad
at times I could hardlv walk without some
external pressure. They seem to have left
me like magic, suddenly, and have had no re
turn; all other symptoms have been removed.
The severe weakness and faintness have dis
appeared, and I can go up stairs with com
parative ease now. I would have informed
you ere this of my improvement, for I appre
ciated it, but I was fearful it was only tran
sient benefit I was receiving-, but l" think
sutlicient time has elapsed to consider the
beneficial results permanent. Accept of uiy
best wishes for jour .future success and your
kindness in advising me.
