The first author who mentions suirar ss produced from boiling the juice of the sugar cane is Moses Chorenensis, who vroM in the fifth century. A French paper records the case of a lady whose hair turned from blck to grey within the hours of 2 and 7 a. m., during a Tery severe attack of neural gia. Among the Chinese, should the lily blossom on New Year's day It is regard ed as a most happy omen, presaging the best luck to the fortunate owner of the plant. The worship of Jupiter Terminus, the god of boundaries, was founded by Numa Fetrpilius, who ordered that Tery one should mark the boundaries of his land and celebrate sacrifices annu ally. Ducks infest Coos Bay by the mill ions, and are killed and captured in erary conceivable manner by men, wo man and children. One man Iiaa a home-made guttling gun on the bow ot his skiff, with which he mows them down in swatts. The first washing machine was paten ted in England Id 1G91, by John Tyn acke ; it was called "an engine to be worked by one or more men for the well and more easy oyling and dressing of leathers and cloath." The first trial of transfusion of Wood on man was made In Taris in 16C6. Some of a sheep's blood was conveyed into the reins of a maniac, who seemed to te ome more sensible, but who died dur ing a repetition of the experiment.

There is in existence a curious class of knives, of the sixteenth century, the blades of which have on one side the musical not to the benediction of the table or grace before meat, and on the other side the grace after meat. The et of these knies usually consisted of four. They were kept in an upright case of stamped leather, and they were placed before the singer.

I IIorsEHODLD Hints. A little borax In the water cleanses ivory and cellaloid , balr brushed. In washing muslins and lawns rut a j little pulverized borax in the water and j use but little soap. A tough piece of meat can be made ' tender ty letting it cook for three or four hours iu water at a simmering beat. Kitchen tables may be made as white as snow if washed with hard soap and wood ashes. Floors look best scrubbed i with hard water, soap and wood ashes. Silver should never be washed with soap if yon wish it to retain its original lustre. When it requires polishing use a piece of soft leather and whiting, and rub hard. An excellent polish for rice or tin is made of three pints of water, one ounce of nitric acid, two ounces of emery, and eight ounces of pumice-stone shaken to gether. To wash lace make a soapsuds of cas tlle soap, and soft water, and, while cold dip the lace in and put on the stove to boil. Let it remain until the lace looks clean. Do not rub. After boiling suf ficiently rinse thoroughly in clean, cold water and then dry. When perfectly dry, wet it in milk and let it dry aein ; then dampen and stitch it on a fUnnel cloth, and put over It a piece of damp flannel. Steam dry with a hot flat iron and then pull out. Woiith Knowing. To clean furni ture use salt and water and apply with a coarse brush and dry thoroughly. Machine grease may be removed from wash goods by dipping the fabric into cold rain water and soda. A few drops of hartshorn put Into a little water will clean a brush nicely. If very dirty use a little soap also. After cleaning rinse in clean water, tie a string around the haudle, and bang it up to dry. Eggs may be kept in good order for ix months by dipping them into warm tallow, and after they are cool packing them in sawdust ; cover with sawdust and make as nearly airtight as possible, and put away in a light, cool place. Coff-e grounds make a highlv success ful rilling for a pin cushion. They mu9t of course be dried perfectly before using. Tut them in a bag and hang before the kitchen stove till you have enough that are dry to fill the cushion. They do not gather moisture and consequently do not rust the need!e. To keep tinware nice and bright scour It every two cr three weeks with finely 'fted coal ashes. Do not, pnt glass articles that have held milk into hot water, as this causes the milk to penetrate the glass and can cev' r he removed. II yoa put soda in water with which you are to wash windows you will flud that finger marks, putty stains, etc., will be much more easily removed than If clear water alone is used.

Setta Green, the eminent piscicultur ist, writes about a new way of aappiy injr a family with fluh. lie Bays : Uy opinion has often been asked how a carp pond can be constructed for fam ily use. The pond can be made in any shape to suit the locality, but I would prefer Cfr? shape if the locality wae jnst as snitable for it. The pond would breed flies of a great many kinds, one of the kinds being mosquitoes. The larvae of flies is the best food for young flab. I have bred them by the bushels, but some of the mosquitoes would be apt to take wings before the pond was well stocked with young fish, and to protect the family in a measure I would advise them to build a pond to the leeward of the house In the prevailing winds of the locality. If, for instance, the wind pre vailing from the west, the pond would be built east, northeast of southeast of the house. I would prefer the pond to the northeast or southeast, because if placed directly in the east the house would make a lee under which the mos quitoes can beat any sailing craft before the wind, but on the wind they are no where in the race, as they have no keel. The whole human family should be very thankful to the Creator for not putting a keel on them, and if their bowsprit had not been quite so sharp, tbey may not receive so many handkerchief sa lutes from the verandahs of the Long Island hotels, but would be just as use ful and ornamental. The pond can be built with plow and scraper. It should have a deep place in the centre, and be shallow on the edges. If yon have square sides the young fish will have no protection from the old ones. When scraping is commenced carry the dirt as far back as vou intend, making your lower embankment, and keep scratching until the pond Is four to five feet deep in the centre. If the place is such that the ice freezes very thick, the pond should be made deeper and holes kept through the ice d urine the winter to prevent the fish from suffoca ting. If the embankment is raised two or three feet and pounded down and sodded or sown to grass, the water could be raised so that but three feet in the centre would have to be excavated in order to have a pond six feet deep. The whole pond should bo sown with some kind of glass or witter plant, with the exception of fifty or seventy-five feet square in the centre. The grass or wa-ter-planta make the spawing grounds, breed food, and protect the young. The pond should not contain any other kind of fish, and if the grass gets too thick it can be raked out. To Remote a Tapeworm. Steep two ounces of pomegranate bark in a quart of water till there is only a pint of the liquid. Eat no supper, and before retiring for the night take a good dose of physic. Next morning, after t he salts have served their purpose (sometimes a second dose of the salts may be needed to prdure a movement), drink half of the pomegranate tea and half an hour la ter drink the other half. If a cure is not effected in five or six hours take a good dose of castor oil and the worm will pass away. In June. 1783. Stephen and Joseph Montgolfler sent up the first balloon.

A gentleman of this city who unites a practical with a scientific turn of mind has been experimenting for some time past with a view to manufacturing arti ficial eggs. The high price of this in dispensable article during the winter season shows that there will be "big money" in an artificial egg that can be cheaply manufactured and which will fill the place of the natural product. The gentleman referred to began by experimenting on the yolk of an egg. Haring analyzed this he found a rich essential oil which he claims he can ex tract from cotton seed at very little ex pense. This mixed in proper propor tions with a substance which he declines to name, and colored with harmless matter used in coloring Jersey butter, makes a yolk which can hardly be dis tinguished from the original. For the white of an egg he succeeded in extracting a substance from eoal oil, which, after being steamed and kneaded seems to fnrnish almost the exact coun terpart of the natural white of an egg. He has had more trouble with the shell than anything else. He experi mented with paper, different prepara tions of lime, and several other sub stances without satisfactory results. Fi nally, the idea occurred to him of mix ing pulverized eggshells and glycerine. This was a happy thought, and after many experiments he succeeded in get ting the right proportions, and produced a perfect egg shell. He proposes to in troduce the yolk and white through a mall opening in the end of the shell, somewhat as "sugar eggs" are made and by an ingeniously constructed re volving machine, he gives the yolk a lobular shape and surrounds it with the white, without the slightest admineling of the two. The contents having been injected the orifice in the shell is closed and the egg is complete. All the ingredients can be mixed by machinery, and even the shell requires scarcely any manipulation. The mate rials used are comparatively inexpensive and the inventor claims that he can put eggs on th market in large quantities at a rate which will enable them to re tail tb year round from six to ten cents a dozen. He has taken preliminary steps to wards securing a patenl, and soon as this Is done, will erect the necessary ma chinery for the mnnufacture of ecars on a large scale. Indianapolis Journal. I have known plenty of persons to go out on market day and kill twelve of fifceen fowls and bring them Into a room where there would be a half dozen woman and boys pulling a fw feathers at a time bet wfen their thumb and fore finger, to prevent tearing them. Now for the benefit of suoh I will give our plan : nang the fowl by the feet by a small cord : then with a small knife give one cut across th upper inw, oppo site the mouth. After the blood has stopped running a stream place the point of the knife in the groove Ir the upper part of the month, run the blade up into the back part of the head, which will cause a twitching of the muscles.
