He was none other than her undo.

In a few moments she was clasped in his arms. Mr. Howard thought Adaline more beautiful than ever; and when Mrs. Westbrook told him Adaline was Lena, tears ef joy rolled down his aged-cheeks. "Ah, uncle," she sawl, "wbto Wrald Lena the eliffswher ones the beacon-fires of the wreckers allured many a goodly 'ship to her doom.

So great are the changes wrought by 4ime that even the spell of mist worked by thewisard king has been broken, and the summer Tats its share of cloudless days. The invaders are not Bom ana, Picts, Scots, or Scandinavians, but aggressive tourists bearing knapsacks instead of eagles, and walking-sticks isstead of javelins. These confront you in nearly every part of the island, and the primitive character of the natives is fast changing under the influence of the town manners which the visitors bring with them. Many of the superstitions have been laughed away, and hospitality has acquired a fair money value.

Mezzontinto owed its invention by Prince Eupert to the simple accident of a sentry's gun-barrel being rusted by the dew. Henry Schanward, a Nuremberg glass-cutter, happened to let some aqua-fortis fall upon his spectacles, and noticed the" glass was corroded and softened where the aqua-fortishad touched it. Taking the hint, he made a liquid accordingly, drew some figures upon -a piece of glass, covered them with varnish, and applied his corroding fluid, exit away the glass around his- drawing, so that when 'he removed the varnish the figures appeared raised upon a dark ground, and etching upon glass was added to the ornamental arts. Alois Sene-felder, playwright and actor, thinking it possible to etch upon stone in lieu of copper, polished a slab for the purpose He was disturbed by his mother coming into his small laboratory with a request that he would jot down her list of things for the wash, as the woman was waiting to take the basket away.

Lacking pen and ink, ho scribbled the items on his stone with his etching preparation, that he might copy them at his leisure. Some time afterward, when about to clean the stono, he thought he might as well see wnat would be the effects of biting the stone with aqua-fortis, and in a few minutes saw the writing standing out in relief. Taking up a pelt-ball charged with printing ink, he inked the stone, took off a few impressions upon paper, and he had invented lithography. The Drags, Corn and Seed Drill for field and garden nse.

"SEE'S ONLY A DEPENDENT." Adaline Heynolds sat alone in one of the many rooms of her uncle's splendid city Yet the brilliantly lighted par-lors were throngeiwith gay assemblage. Why was she the only one sad It was her cousin Clara's birth night, when Clara had who Ada-Kne wae, the cruel answer was, "only a dependent, a distant relation of father's." reply, aid hence she was alone and weep- sat, her eyes rested on the sflYery which was shedding its light full upon her upturned face. That face was one of the most beautiful imaginable. Tears were gathered in the large, soul lit eyes, and one fell upon the small white hand.

Adaline at this, started up as if an adder had stung her, and brushed the teardrops from her eyes, saying "Back, back to your fountain. Although I am only a dependent, I will win a name, and they shall yet be proud of their poor Wlinill Slowly Adaline dropped upon her knees, asking God to guide her in the step she was going to take. When she arose the guestswcre departing, for she could hear the carriages as they rolled away. Yetslie did not retire until the dawn of day. Iter slender fingers were flying oyer thejpaper on which she was writing.

The morning sun was shining bright and beautiful. Mr. Howard sar'alone in his library. He was thinking of the past. Once more the gray-haired man was a child, wvuuu ouo inuuci utcbiuo Yvibu Ilia brothers and sistera, listening" to his kind Sire's advice, or looking to catch his rmother's love-lit smile.

Then a cloud came between him and his life of sunshine. The death-angel claimed his fondly loved mother; another and another passed away until all was gone but his idolized sister Ada. Herhe saw just verging into womanhood. Another vision passed before him, his now proud, aristocratic wife. She had -deceived him, it mattered not how it was too lata now for remedy.

His daughters, thr in number, had grown up to woman-' hood, and inherited all their mother's foolish pride. He had heard Clara, the eldest, but the evening before, say that Adaline was only a dependent. The words had sunk deep into his heart. Was not Adaline his sister's child? Again, and Ada passed before him, arrayed in her bridal robes. He heard her farewell words, and felt her farewell kiss.

She was going to her western home. A few short years passed by, when one dark-day a letter came telling him of his sister's death, then of her husband's and asking him to rear her child as his own. Bid he not love that child as his own Yes, nobly hast thou done thy duty to thy dead sister's child. But alas thy words were the only kind ones Adaline received. While he sat thus, recalling the nasi.

two soft arms stole around his neck, and a sweet voice said, "Uncle, what are you thinking about "Mujjt I tell you that it was about my lit tle pet. on now lonely Bhall be when she is gone." where, Uncle "Why to Mrs. Westbrook's. Did I not Dromise to send von next mnntli "Yes, Uncle, but I thought you had for-, gotten it. I am so happy now at the -thought of going back to dear Walnut Hill once more; not at leaving you.

THE LOWEST PRICES AND BEST GOODS How to Makb Cows "Hold Bt.h There is a wide difference in individual cows in raspoct to "holding out." Sonle are inclined to dry up in a few months, tott others to milk the year round, both treated the. same. It is common )or cows to have the flow of milk diminish in three or four woeks after 'being in calf, and if there is any lack in feed at that time they are apt to dry down pretty rapidly, and not to'recover from the shrinkage, but to con-tinUo iatoinking and to have their, milking Moeon considerably shortened. Cows often Shrink at this particular period when well fed, and the shrinkage maybe quite sudden. Bo sudden that the owner wonders what can bo the cause, or suspects they are seriously diseased.

To make a cow hold out, she must be fed liberally with rich and succulent food, and the supply must be unremitting and regular, and the same may be said of the water supply. The milking must also be regular and complete. To milk at irregular hours, or I to divide the time between milking unequally, or to leave a little milk in the bag at each milking, tends to dry up the flow, and shorten the milking season. Milking properly is an important item in making cows hold out. I have never been able to hire a milker who would make his cows hold out as well as those I milked myself.

I milk my cows quickly, quietly, and perfectly, getting, the last drop every time. Hands which are not interested are apt to dally, milk slow, perhaps stop to talk or to listen to conversation. Cows which are thus milked do not give their milk down perfectly. The flow of milk into the teats is somewhat under the control of the cow's will. She can relax -the muscular tissuos which up the milk tubes, and let the milk press down upon the teats, or she can contract them and close the tubes, and prevent the milk from passing into the teats.

When the milker first take3 hold of the teats the cow tighten the constricting muscles and shuts off the flow as far as she can, but in a few minutes, if there is nothing to disturb her, she slackens them again, and the milk all presses down upon the teats. If it is then quietly and rapidly drawn out it may all be obtained. But this perfect relaxation which occurs in a few minutes after the milking begins, does not remain long. The cow begins to gradually draw up the muscles which close the milk tubes, and to shut off the flow, and if the milking is protracted a little too long or the cow is in any way disturbed or excited she can and will retain a part of her mess, and this will be surto work a Bteady diminution of her milk and make her dry up "prematurely. It is thus that a slow, noisy or irregular milker is fatal to a prolonged milking season.

Paorsssoa ox Fertilizers. Professor Storer concludes that the value assumed by many chemists cf this country of sixteen and a quarter cents a pound for soluble phosphoric acid in fertilizers is too high. He is led in this opinion from some estimates of the "Cost of Importing Superphosphates from Europe," published in a former pari of the Bulletin, "whence it ap- oears that soluble phosphoric acid may be ipCrted into Boston from England at a cost of twlve and a half cents per peund currency from the offer of a responsible dealer to sell superphosphate at such rates as to make the price of bOluble phosphoric acid the same; and from practical experience as to the cost of making superphosphate on a farm twelve miles from Boston, which makes it plain that with spent boue- black at twenty-five dollars per ton and sulphuric acid at two and three-eights cents per pound soluble phosphoric acid may be made at a cost per pound of thirteen cents or less on any farm to which the cost of transportation ould be no greater than to the one referred to. Professor Storer's analysis of wood ashes from domestic fires reveal a fact of considerable importance to farmers, namely, that these contain considerably less phosphoric acid than has ordinarily been supposed. As wood is commonly burned, a portion of the phosphoric acid is lost.

This loss is explained in part by the escape of phosphates with the draught, and in part by the formation of an insoluble phosphide of iron or other metal in the ash. The "analysis from which calculations of the percentage of phosphoric acid in wood ashes have usually been based were made, for the most part, from ashes carefully prepared in the laboratory, so that this loss did not occur. The experiments on the nitrogen of vegetable mould are believed by Professor Storer to show conclusively that the, soil nitrogen is useful to plants under certain conditions such as are found in nature, and to illustrate the fact which Wolff had proved before, that soils devoid of vegetable mould or some other compound of nitrogen can not compare in power of supporting crops with soils which contain peat or loam or some other nitrogenous material. ifor-per Magazine. Size of Barrels.

A president of an agricultural society calls attention to the fact that there are in a standard legal barrel only 100 quarts, while the ordinary flour barrel, most in use among farmers in the sale of potatoes and apples, contains nearly one-eighth more. Farmers sell their produce in flour barrels, and merchants transfer the same to standard, barrels, making a profit on quantity as well as on the price. In the sales of 800 barrels of potatoes from a farm, the proprietor loses 100 barrels, worth $250, for which he might as well be paid. The middleman, not tho consumer, profits by this. Fanners, see to it that you employ the 100 qua it barrels hereafter.

ACCIDENTAL UISCOTKItlES. A Limerick tobacconist looking dolefully at his poor neighbors groping among the the smouldering ruins of his burned-out shop, noticed that some; of them, after trying the contents of certain canisters, care-loaded their waist-coat pockets from them. He followed suit, and found the snuff had ume out of the fiery ordeal very much improved in pungency and aroma. Like a wise man he said nothing, but took another place, set np a lot of ovens, and before long Black Yard Snuff otherwise "Irish Blackguard" was all the rage with lovers of nasal titiHation; and in a few. years Lundyfoot waa a rich man; owing to the accident he thought had ruined him.

VISIONS," SALT, FISH, SUGAR, STRUP, RICH to love her if you re gone "Even now, darling," answered her uncle, "I have vj consent to the Hon. iEdwai-d Stanley, and when you are the congressmss bride, you may forget Adaline could not speak for a moment from surprise, then she said "Never, never, will I forget your kindness to the poor orphan.

I would net have been what I am now, if it had not been for your generosity. Now, in my days of prosperity I would be ungrateful indeed to forget you. But why," she blushing, "did you call Edward Stanley a congressman?" "Because he really is. Did you not know it?" "Never until this momcpt." Just then Mrs. Westbrook entered.

Mr. Howard told her why Adaline looked so bewildered. "I intended telling her myself, and ask pardon for the deception I practised upon both of them," said Mrs. Westbrook. "I told Edward this evening our Lena's history just before he loft." When Mr.

Howard returned to the city, Adaline accompanied him, but she did not go to his mansion. She stopped with an old schoolmate. It was soon noised about that th.3 gifted and beautiful Lena was in the city, and her true name came out at a grand ball, where her cousin and all their aristocratic friends were present. Adaline was attended by her bethrothed husband, Edward Stanley. She was arrayed in a robe of whita satin embroidered with silver.

Her ia7cncurls were confined by a band of vJia richest pearls whilst a necklace of the same encircled her snowy neck. Her cheeks were flushed, for she was listening to her lover's voice. But when the Misses Howard's ar- rival was announced, proudly, almost haughtily, did Bhe meet them, with a calm dignity, befitting a queen receiving he subjects. She was the ruling star of the season. Time passed, Mr.

Howard lay on his death-bed, prostrated by a sudden and mortal disease. Adaline had flown to nurse him, for Clara had eloped with a worthless adventurer. Edward Stanley was also there. "Uncle, for so I will eall you," he said. I am sorry to see you so "You have just come in time," said the old man, "to receive my blec.ung before I die.

I have no riglit to ask the favor of you, yet I will. Protect my wife and chil dren." "I will be to them all you wish," solemn ly said Edward Stanley. "For your kind ness to me is dearer to me than life." The sufferer smiled faintly. "Oh, God, I thank thee," he cried. "I can now die contented." Emma and Annie, the haughty ball-room belles, were awed by that scene of death.

and vowed that they would live differently, as they pressed a kiss upon their dying father's lips, and saw their mother borne fainting from the room. Clara, the disobedient child, was not forgotten. "Give her my blessing," said the old man. "And tell her I freely forgive her." A few months and he was joined by his repentant wife, who died blessing Adaline with her latest breath, and leaving her two daughters, now almost penniless, to the poor cousin's care. It was a bright and beautiful morn in the early spring, when Lena, the gifted and beautiful, stood before the altar, to become the wife of the distinguished Edward Stanley.

There, too, were Emma and Annie, looking happily on, while Mrs. Westbrook smiled her congratulations. It wag in a country church that they were married. There were many there from the gay city to witness the ceremony. Little children strewed flowers in the pathway of the bride as she returned to her carriage.

Edward Stanley not only took his wife, but her now dependent cousins. Adaline did not look upon them as such, however, but treated them as sisters. But where was Clara all this time? for three years she was not heard from. But one dark winter's night, a pale woman, in tattered garments, might be seen wending her way down to the Hon. Edward Stan-lay's beautiful residence.

Feebly she knocked for admittance. The servant stared at her wonderingly, when she asked if Mrs. Star-ley was at home. "Tell her yes," said Adaline, who always listened to the voice of distress. The pale supplicant entered, and ca st her eyes on her two sisters, who knew her in a moment, and at once Adaline received the wanderer to her heart.

Clara had come home to Adaline to die, a deserted, heart-broken wife. AH that could be done, was done to restore her, but in vain. Adaline's voice soothed her in her wild est words of delirium, and it was Adaline's voice that convinced her she could yet be saved. Clara died a truer Christian, with the words: "Father, mother; I come." Thus the proud, contemptuous beauty owed her last comforts, nay, even her cape from a pauper grave, to the "poor dependent" she had scorned.

When the engine starts up the hill, it rests upon a pair of raits just within the usual track and upon set of double flanged small driving wheels which are upon the same axles with the big drivers- they being only about thirty inches in diameter this inside track is raised about fifteen to eighteen inches above tiid outer tne, and high enough so that the big drivers do not touch the track at all; the engine rests now upon the small drivers, and is independent of the outer ones; then in the center of the track is placed a wide cogged rail, which exactly meshes into the cog wheel which is between these small drivers, directly under the center of the locomotive.

Thus it will be seen that, by applying power to the big drivers, in the ordinary way, the power is applied to the cogged wheel, which does the climbing. The cogs are about three inches from tip to tip, and the wheel is eight inches wide. 8 alt. The sea depends on the disintegration on land for salt. It does originate in oceans and seas.

Bains wash it and hold it in solution as particles are liberated by violence, decomposition, and gradual action of many natural forces. All streamlets and rivers, therefore, are constantly transporting salt to the sea. If there is more than can be held in solution, then it accumulates in masses at very deep points. Thus the salt mines of Portland and the vast horizontal beds of pure salt in Texas, is well as that mountain of rock salt in St. Domingo, were collected at the bottom of ancient seas, which are now dry land remote from water.

There are places in Africa where the process of disintegration of salt from rock is regularly going on, but there is not water power enough to force it onward to the sea. Hence the particles are spread abroad and mixed with the soil. The negroes in Northern Africa having discovered its distribution where there is no water to dissolve in the ground, leach it. 'n that way they separate the salt. Salt per Ail oa ma vans, it ouu uio grasses and most vegetable products on which animals feed.

In that way they de rive enough in inost countries to meet the demands of their natures. They require as much as civilized humanity. With them salt is necessary, as with ourselves, for keeping the organs of vision in good con dition. Stop the supply, and blindness would ensue. Glass.

M. de la Bastie, a rich gentleman residing at his chateau in France, with the assistance of a learned and experienced chemist, has succeeded, af ter a long series of scientific experiments, during nearly six years, in discovering ths process of making malleable glass, which, instead of being brittle, is as ductile as copper or iron. Samples of it have been presented to scientific institutions, and the news of this neat discovery is spreading rapidly in France, Englamd Prussia, and America. M. de la Bastie, in order to secure for himself the benefit due to long, persevering and successful efforts, is form-; ing a company, ana nas tacen a patent right for his difcovery.

A large building for the manufacture of said glass has been commenced at a. cost of $625,006. The building is 163 yards by 160 yards in depth. It has been assured that utensils, such as frying-pans, can be used on a. hot range, and will resist the fire just as well as iron or any other metal.

Also glass chimneys forlamps and gas burners are made, and will not break, Iu fact, there is no limit to the variety of articles which cen be mede of malleable glass. A Miniattjbb WatibWhul. -A man in Rochester is said to have invented a min iature undershot water wheel, which can be applied to sewing machines, is so con structed that it can be used in any room of a dwelling house, and is moreover, ornamental. The wheel is a very narrow one, with a groove divided at regular intervals into buckets or compartments. A cap fits on at the point where the water is let in.

and closing the compartment at the other end water packs it. A stream flowing through an aperture but one-sixteenth of an inch in diameter? and with the pressure derived from the Holly works, is sufficient to run a sewing machine. In a recent experiment the wheel received the water from the Holly pipes through a seven-sixteenth inch opening land ran a meat cutter with great The invention can be used in any place where the Holly water supply system has been introduced, and is ap plicable to the running of all light chinery.

Jlne apples were colored with aniline and the leaves with arsenic. Boldo is the name of a new tonic found in Chili whose bark, leaves, and blossoms "possess an aromatic odor resembling a mix ture of turpentine and These contain an alkaloid called boldine, which stimulates digestion; and acts favorably upon the liver, while it excites appetite, increases circnlatinn. and has an excellent effect on the bladder.

Cooking and Parlor Stoves, Agricultual Implements House Tin, Copper and SPECIAL ATTENTION GIVEN TO pelt-ball used by Senef elder was long indispensable in a printing office. A Salopian printer, in a hurry to get on with a job, could not find his ball, and inked the form with a piece of soft glue that had fallen out of the glue-pot; with such excellent results that he thenceforth discarded the pelt-ball altogether, and by adding treacle to glue, to keep it from hardening, hit upon the composition of which printers' rollers have ever since been made. So much for happy accidents. THE HOTTEST YET. The water encountered in the main east drift on the 2,000 foot level of the Imperial Empire Mine is the hottest ever struck on the Com8tock lode.

It was carefully tested with two good thermometers, and the temperature was found to bo 150J degrees. This stream of water is but an inch or two in The temperature of the atmosphere in the drift was 115 degrees. Notwithstanding the hot air ana hotter water, men are at work in the face of the drift. Going down by degrees as they are, our miners are becoming inured to the heat, and expect to be able to continue right on down to where the rocks are in a molten state without experiencing the slightest difficulty. At the Consolidated Virginia they are already making their calculations for pumping up tho molten silver when they shall have followed the big bonanza down to a depth of about feet.

About Chapultepec. Mexico, is a groe of giant cypresses, said to be from one thousand five hundred to two thousand years old, with trunks scarred and torn by shot and shell fired in the many battles that have taken place in the immediate neighborhood, On the top of the rock is the old Spanish castle, built of porphyry, marble and sandstone. It contains a fine scientific library and conservatory. The whole rock beneath it is honey-combed with passages, stables, cellars, dungeons, storerooms, and powder magazines, some of whichwere excavated by the Montezu- the isub or There is a patch of land in tho stormy Irish Sea called the Islo oi Man, about "which many traveled and un traveled Americans know scarcely more than its name. Oh a sunny day the highlands of Ulster, in Ireland, and of Galloway, in Scotland, are visible from its western shore, and from the summit of Snaefell Mountain busy little England is seen fretting in the golden haze far across the sea.

It is not much greater than Staten Island in area, and an ambitious Calif ornian might look upon it as a fair-sized ranch. ut small as it is a mere speck on the map of Great Britain it has a government of its own, with a House of Parliament, a people infused with noble blood, and a thrilling and eventful history. Hawthorne found it out while he was a consul at Liverpool, and has praised it in the delicious prose of his English Note-Boohtf Scott gathered material for Peveril cf the Peak from. its romantic scenery and legends, and Wordsworth commemorated a visit to it in a sonnet. But it is not in these few literary associations that its chief interest lies.

The history of its varied fortunes and the ancestry of its superstitious people have a peculiar interest, dating as iey do from the thrilling age when tk Horsemen were mighty in the West. In its greatest length the island measures about thirty-three miles, and in its greatest breadth about thirteen. In circumference is seventy-five miles, excluding the sinuosities of the bays; and it -contains a superficial area of about one hundred and thirty thousand acres, or two hundred and three square-miles. Enjoying the benefits of the Gulf Stream, the climate is singular ly mild and genial, and there are few other places in the world where the difference between summer and winter is so slight. The mean temperature of summer is usually about 56-17 of autumn 46-97 of winter, 40-90; of spring, 44-70.

There is plenty of rain, but very little snow or frost. Fuch sias grow to the height of ten or twelve feet out-of-doors, and are found, a mass of crim son blossoms, in the poorest gardens. As to the health! illness of tho climate, you should see the native girls, rosy-cheeked, plump, active, and gleeful, and the men. who are as stalwart, muscular, and hand some a race as ever breathed sea-air. For the m'03t part the coist is rocky and wild, hoar with the foam of the turbulent sea that" surrounds, it, and indented with capacious harbors, and innumerable creeks but in the north the land sinks into a.

low pasturage, and meets the water on the glistening pebbles of a smooth beach. The interior includes nearly every kind of natu ral scenery heather-dad balsamio hills. plains as richly cultivated as the downs of Surrey, wide reaches of prickly gorse drear as Yorkshire moors, and the prettiest of cascades. The enchantment of Northern land dwells in its subdued light and on its mist-crownod heights. The vikings are fishermen now, sad all the great treasure steamers from Liverpool sail into the West without a thought or wish of evil toward them.
