TP
famous foreelain Tourer,
lhc ctlcbraieil Porcelain Tower
jar Xating, China, is tlescriwd by a
.ravt-Ur, who says :
In the quirt evening we made our
way out of the city by the south gate
through a well constructed tunnel, and
shortly stood ujon an eminence wboe
surface was a mass of debris consisting
of btoicon bricks, tiles, and plaster
several feet thick This was all all
that was kft ofthat which, for its his
torical beauty, the ingenuity of its con
struction and its great cost, took rank
with the wonders of the world the
famous Porcelain Tower. It must
Lave Wen very beautiful iu its perfect
ion, if wc accept the statements of its
various historians, who differ so little
in their account that one does for all.
From them we learn its form was octa
gonal, nine stoiies high, tapering as it
rose to '.he height of i 3 1 feet from the
ground, the circumference of the lower
Btorv In ing 120 feet.
The body of the pagoda was ci
brick, but its fa'je was composed of
porcelain tilts of many colors. Kach
Ptory formed a kind of saloon, through
which ran the spiral staircase leading
to the summit, and whose walls were
covered with small gilded idols resting
in nic!n-,. the entire apartment richly
pain'.ed and gilded. Each story was
defined by a projecting cornice of
green tl.'os, from whose points gilded
bells were hur.j.
The roof was laid with copper, and
above rose a iua-t thirty feet high, ;
Capped by a golden ball and coiled
aIout by an immense band of iron, np-
peaking like rings from below, The I
base of this shaft was an iron ball 1
formed of two halves, the outer surface
of which is magnificently embossed.
I say is, fur one half rests where it I
fell, the only t .iisible thing in the
ni of luins. The other half, weigh- ;
ing twelve tons, being broken by the !
full, was recast into the temple bell. j
Standing lef re the halt which is j
left, vie query who were they that !
faM i r.ed this beautiful casting worthy
of a ina-ter ? Whose skill was great !
e nough in A. IV 14.!' to place a" bell !
of iron thirty -six fevt in circumfeience, :
weighing twentv-four tons, upon a '
pedestal 2'il feet high? This ball'
was the receptacle for various treasures 1
calculated to ward off evil influences '
anion.: which were "night shiuing jo- ;
Wels," pearls, books, gold, silver, tliou
b.uk!s of strings of cash, satin, silk, '
and j iioelcss medicines.
The number of bells on the struct-
ure was 1.V2, aixl the interior was il- ;
luminated bv several hundred lamps !
while the exteiior rt'ipiired '2 to !

How the Alps were Formed.
Mr. J. W. Judd, F. R. S., Professor
of Geology at the Royal School of up on the farm, nothing should be ne
Mines, gave the M ouday lecture at 1 glected pertaining to farm life, to
the London Institution, his subject
being the formation of the Swiss Alps,
' The results of geological observations
, are, as the lecturer pointed out, that !
four stages can be recognized in the
! history of these Alps. First, the ex-
' istence of a line of weakness in the
' earth's crust nearly coincident with
the line of the present mountains,
' This is evidenced by the fact that
along this line of weakness there were
volcanic outbursts, the results of
which can still be traced. Secondly,
there followed along this line of weak-
ness a depression, and in this huge
"trough" of miles in extent there were
accumulated sands, limestones, and

c;e3 ani )v animals livin" in the waters,
-
Thirdly there followeel the consolida-
tion of these soft and loose materials,
There is evidence that the accumula-
tion was of from six to seven miles in
thickness, and the mere weight of the
superincumbent material on the lower
strata would have a share in effecting
consolidation. But thi3 was not all.
Under this vast covering heat has led
to crystallization from fusion. There ,
was, too, the crushing in from the
sides of the trough. This was illus-
trated by a model of the late Sir II. la
Ceche, where lateral pressure was cm-
ployed on layers of different colored
cloth showing how crumpling resulted
-
with uplifting of parts of tbo accumu-
latod mass. Fourthly, there had been of your experience and criticism. Fin
the sculpturing of all this into the pre- ally, cause thorn bypleasant sur round
sent form, which was the work of rains ings to grow day by clay more in love
and frosts. 'ome of the existing with home and the duties belonging to
peaks, even 3,000 feet high, were com- their glorious occupation, and there is
posed entirely of the disintegrated no doubt but that they Till stick to

rain and streams. The amount of ma-
, terial remove! in this way was so stu
pendous it was almost staggering to
try to grasp the facts. The sculptur
. ing of the contours is still going on
This fourth stage was of quite recent
date, speaking geologically ; but the
whole history involved a lapse of time
which at the beginning of this century
philosophers would not have been pre
pared to grant, even if this since ac
quired knowledge of facts had been
! presented to them.
I Orn Fashion in Shoes. A groat
beau of the time of William Kuftis,
i called Robert the Horned, wore shoes
i with long sharp points, stuffed with
i tow and twisted in a spiral form.
This fashion took the fancy of the
, people of that day immensely, and ihe
points went on increasing vearlv until r""" v - ,
the reian of Uichard II"when they of struction to the thistles thorough
had to be tied to the kneos of the 5-v intermixing the decayed vegetable
wearer to save him from being incum
bered in "rvalkin?.
i
' This tying, or fastening, in the case
; of gentlemen, was by chains of silver
' or silver gilt. In Chaucer's time the
upper pait of these shoes were cut to
1 imitate a church window. The rank
: of the wearer in those days was known
, by the length of his poulaines.
"The nun,"' says I'aradin, "woie
them with a point before half a foot
long ; the richer and more einiiicnt
personages wee them a foot, and prin
ces two feet long."
Hy an aetof the reign of Edward IV.,
the absurd lengths to which these
points had attained was limited and no
one under the rank of a lord was to
wear shoes more than ten inches long
and all cobblers making them were lo
bo fined rind cursed by the clergy.

To Make Hoys Good farmers.
To parents who have boys growing
make them good farmers. A half way
farmer, like an ill instructed mechanic,
or indolent shopkeeper, never does
much good.
From the first, boys on the farm
should be induced to take an interest
in the farm, in the stock in the imple-
mcnts, and in all that pertains to the
business. Tell them all your plans,
your successes and failures ; give them
a history of your life and what you ;
did, and how you lived when a boy ; !
but do not harp too much on the tie-
generate character of 3-oung men of j
the present age. Praise them when ;
.you can, and encourage them to do
better. Let them dress up in the eve- ;
nino- instp.-ii of sittinT down in their f
---
, - '
dntv clothes, as is too often tue case. :

sitting rooms, with brilliant lights. :
Thanks to kerosene, our country !
homes can be as brilliantly lighted as ,
the gas lit residences in the city. En- !
courage the neighbors to drop in fre-
quently of evenings for a social chat, j
Talk agriculture rather than politics ; j
speak of the importance of large crops, !
of good stock, of liberal feeding, and j
of the advantage of making animals
comfortable, rather than of the hard :
times, low pi ices and high wages. ,1
Above all encourage the boys to read
good agricultural papers and books. !
Provide these without stint; read
with them, arm give them the benefit

Canada Thistles. A successful
cultivator of several hundred acres,
whom we recently met, saj'S an ex
change and whose uniformly heavy
crops show that he does not often
make mistakes in cultivation, con
fidently asserts that a heavy crop of
Canada thistles is of more value to
him as a fertilizer, when plowed under,
than a crop of clover. He would tlieie
fore give more for land densely covered
with thistles than if entirely free from
them. lie thinks the draw largely
from the atmosphere while growing.
The crop is allowed to grow early in
summer till near the period of blossom
ing. It is then ploughed under, tak
ing care that every plant is covered.
Three additional ploughings at inter
vals through the season, to keep the
! matter with the soil, and reducing the
whole to so excellent a degree of pul
verization, that the cost of the plough
ing is more than repaid by the condi
tion of the land for autumn sown wheat
or other crops.
